cbdMD, Inc. Goodwill & Intangibles Disclosure

The Company's intangible assets consist of trademarks and other intellectual property, all of which are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The Company employs the non-amortization approach to account for purchased intangible assets having indefinite lives. Under the non-amortization approach, intangible assets having indefinite lives are not amortized into the results of operations, but instead are reviewed annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired, to assess whether their fair value exceeds their carrying value. We perform an impairment analysis at August 1 annually on the indefinite-lived intangible assets following the steps laid out in ASC 350-30-35-18. Our annual impairment analysis includes a qualitative assessment to determine if it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. In performing a qualitative assessment, we review events and circumstances that could affect the significant inputs used to determine if the fair value is less than the carrying value of the intangible assets. If a quantitative analysis is necessary, we would analyze various aspects including revenues from the business, associated with the intangible assets. In addition, intangible assets will be tested on an interim basis if an event or circumstance indicates that it is more likely than not that an impairment loss has been incurred. In addition, the Company has analyzed a variety of factors in light of the known impact to date of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business to determine if a circumstance could trigger an impairment loss, and, at this time has determined there has been no impairment.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. In accordance with ASC 360-10-35-21, definite lived intangibles are reviewed annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired, to assess whether their fair value exceeds their carrying value.

In conjunction with any acquisitions, the Company refers to ASC-805 as amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01 in determining if the Company is acquiring any inputs, processes or outputs and the impact that such factors would have on the classification of the acquisition as a business combination or asset purchase. Additionally, the Company refers to the aforementioned guidance in reviewing all acquired assets and assumed liabilities for valuation in a business combination, including the determination of intangible asset values and contingent liabilities.
