Management analyzed the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the ceramic product line asset group and concluded that due to continuing declining revenues that the carrying value of ceramic related assets exceeded the total of the undiscounted cash flows.  As a result, the Company recognized impairment charges of approximately $0.22 million related to its ceramics equipment, approximately $0.17 million related to leasehold improvements, and approximately $0.46 related to its ceramics surgical instrument sets, totaling $0.85 million of impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2016 to bring the carrying value to the estimated fair value. No impairment charge was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2015.
