Business Combination The Company recognizes identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions as part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. Key estimates and assumptions in valuing certain of the intangible assets and goodwill the Company has acquired include, but are not limited to, expected future cash flows from acquired developed technology, customer relationships, and trade names. Unanticipated events and circumstances could impact the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results. The authoritative guidance allows a measurement period of the purchase price allocation that ends when the entity has obtained all relevant information about facts that existed at the acquisition date, and that cannot exceed one year from the date of acquisition. As a result, during the measurement period, the Company may record adjustments to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill to the extent that it identifies adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation. Upon conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments will be recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired in a business combination. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment annually during each fourth fiscal quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be fully recoverable. In the valuation of goodwill, management estimates future cash flows to be derived from the Company’s business. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record an impairment. Management may first evaluate qualitative factors to assess if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and to determine if an impairment test is necessary. Management may choose to proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test, bypassing the initial qualitative assessment. The quantitative test compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. A goodwill impairment loss would be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total
