Note 7 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill:  The Company reported goodwill of $1.1 million at April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011.  The Company tests the fair value of the goodwill of its reporting units annually as of the first day of the Company’s fiscal year in a two-step approach.  The first step is the estimation of the fair value of each reporting unit to ensure that its fair value exceeds its carrying value.  If step one indicates that a potential impairment exists, then the second step is performed to measure the amount of an impairment charge, if any.  In the second step, these estimated fair values are used as the hypothetical purchase price for the reporting units, and an allocation of such hypothetical purchase price is made to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets and assigned liabilities of the reporting units.  The impairment charge is calculated as the amount, if any, by which the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds the implied amount of goodwill that results from this hypothetical purchase price allocation.  An additional interim impairment test must be performed during the year whenever an event or change in circumstances occurs that suggest that the fair value of the goodwill of either of the reporting units of the Company has more likely than not fallen below its carrying value.  The Company performed the annual impairment test as of April 4, 2011 and concluded that the fair value of the goodwill of the Company’s reporting units exceeded their carrying values as of that date.  The Company determined that an additional interim impairment test was not required.

Other Intangible Assets:  Other intangible assets as of April 1, 2012 consisted primarily of the capitalized costs of recent acquisitions, other than tangible assets, goodwill and assumed liabilities.  The carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s other intangible assets as of April 1, 2012, their estimated useful life and amortization expense for the fiscal years ended April 1, 2012 and April 3, 2011 are as follows (in thousands):
