Note 7: Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net
Goodwill
In 2013, the Company recognized $10,365,806 in
Goodwill, representing the excess of the fair value of the consideration for the Merger over net identifiable assets acquired. Pursuant
to FASB ASC 350-20, Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is subject to annual review to determine if certain events warrant impairment
to the Goodwill asset.
As a result of the ChizComm acquisition, the consideration
exceeded the fair value of the assets acquired by $9,607,027. Accordingly, this amount was recorded as Goodwill at the time of the acquisition.
Through March 31, 2021, the Company has not recognized any impairment to Goodwill.
