We are required to perform impairment tests related to our indefinite-lived assets annually, which we perform as of August 1^st of each fiscal year, or sooner if an indicator of impairment occurs. While no impairment charges resulted from our annual test, or any analysis performed during the interim periods since August 1, 2013, impairment charges may occur in the future as a result of changes in projected growth and other factors.
