As a result of these assessments, the Company determined the carrying value of its rFactor 2 trade, Le Mans Gaming License and rFactor 2 software technology exceeded their respective fair values, recognizing impairment losses of $ 2.1 1.1 1.3 0.1 0.2 For the three months ended March 31, 2022 interim impairment review, the primary triggers were changes made to the Company’s product roadmap in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, which resulted in changes to the scope and timing of certain product releases, as well as changes in the value of the Company’s market capitalization which had reduced significantly since December 31, 2021. These changes were made by the Company to better align the product roadmap with the Company’s ability to produce and release high quality games. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 interim impairment review, the primary triggers were the ongoing reduction in the Company’s share price, the receipt of a deficiency letter notice from NASDAQ and the Company’s ongoing uncertain liquidity position. No indicators of impairment were identified as of September 30, 2022. The interim period impairment assessments indicated that the carrying value of the rFactor 2 trade name and Le Mans video gaming license indefinite-lived intangible assets, as well as its rFactor 2 finite-lived technology, were lower than their respective carrying values. As of December 31, 2022, the Company performed its annual indefinite-lived and finite-lived intangible asset impairment reviews, electing to bypass the optional qualitative assessment and performed quantitative impairment assessments for all of its indefinite-lived and finite-lived intangible assets. The Company determined the fair value of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using a relief-from-royalty method for the trade name, a discounted cash flow valuation model for the Le Mans Gaming License and a cost to recreate valuation model for the finite-lived technology intangible asset. For all impairment assessments performed, the impairment loss for indefinite- and finite-lived intangible assets was primarily driven by a reduction in expected future revenues, following changes to the Company’s product roadmap, as well as changes to the discount rates applied, royalty rates and technological obsolescence assumptions used in the valuation models. The principal assumptions used in each of the relief-from-royalty method assessments used to determine the fair value of the rFactor 2 trade name consisted of forecasted revenues, royalty rate and weighted average cost of capital (i.e., the discount rate), while the principal assumptions used in each of the discounted cash flow valuation models used to value the Le Mans Gaming License were forecasted revenues and weighted average cost of capital. The principal assumptions used determining the fair value of the finite-lived technology intangible asset were number of production hours, cost per hour and technological obsolescence. The Company considers these assumptions to be judgmental and subject to risk and uncertainty, which could result in further changes in subsequent periods. The impairment loss is presented as impairment of intangible assets in the consolidated statements of operations.
