financial statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for more information on our investments and fair value
measurements.
Intangible Assets
We have acquired product related technology assets and other intangible assets from acquisitions and other third party
agreements. We allocate the purchase price of acquired intangible assets acquired through third party agreements based on their
estimated relative fair values. We allocate a portion of purchase price of acquired companies to the product related technology
assets and other intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. We typically engage third party appraisal firms
to assist us in determining the fair values and useful lives of product related technology assets and other intangible assets
acquired. Such valuations and useful life determinations require us to make significant estimates and assumptions. These
estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are
inherently uncertain. Critical estimates in determining the fair value and useful lives of the product related technology assets
include but are not limited to future expected cash flows earned from the product related technology and discount rates applied
in determining the present value of those cash flows. Critical estimates in valuing certain other intangible assets include but are
not limited to future expected cash flows from customer contracts, customer lists, distribution agreements, patents, brand
awareness and market position, as well as discount rates.
Management's estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. Unanticipated events and
circumstances may occur which may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
We monitor acquired intangible assets for impairment on a periodic basis by reviewing for indicators of impairment. If an
indicator exists we compare the estimated net realizable value to the unamortized cost of the intangible asset. The
recoverability of the intangible assets is primarily dependent upon our ability to commercialize products utilizing the acquired
technologies, retain existing customers and customer contracts, and maintain brand awareness. The estimated net realizable
value of the acquired intangible assets is based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows derived from such intangible
assets. Our assumptions about future revenues and expenses require significant judgment associated with the forecast of the
performance of our products, customer retention rates and ability to secure and maintain our market position. Actual revenues
and costs could vary significantly from these forecasted amounts. As of December 31, 2013, the estimated undiscounted future
cash flows expected from product related technology assets and other intangible assets from these acquisitions is sufficient to
recover their carrying value. If these products are not ultimately accepted by our customers and distributors, and there is no
alternative future use for the technology; or if we fail to retain acquired customers or successfully market acquired brands, we
could determine that some or all of the remaining $509.6 million carrying value of our acquired intangible assets is impaired. In
the event of impairment, we would record an impairment charge to earnings that could have a material adverse effect on our
results of operations.
Goodwill
The excess of the fair value of purchase price over the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities from our
acquisitions is recorded as goodwill. At December 31, 2013, we had $1,768.9 million in goodwill related to our acquisitions.
The goodwill recorded in relation to these acquisitions is not deductible for tax purposes. Our revenues are derived from sales
of our Enterprise and Service Provider division products, which include our Mobile and Desktop products, Networking and
Cloud products and related license updates and maintenance and from sales of our SaaS division’s Collaboration and Data
products. The Enterprise and Service Provider division and the SaaS division constitute our two reportable segments. See Note
11 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2013 for additional information regarding our reportable segments. We evaluate goodwill between these segments, which
represent our reporting units.
We account for goodwill in accordance with FASB’s authoritative guidance, which requires that goodwill and certain
intangible assets are not amortized, but are subject to an annual impairment test. We complete our goodwill and certain
intangible assets impairment test on an annual basis, during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, or more frequently, if changes
in facts and circumstances indicate that an impairment in the value of goodwill and certain intangible assets recorded on our
balance sheet may exist.
In the fourth quarter of 2013, we performed a qualitative assessment to determine whether further quantitative
impairment testing for goodwill and certain intangible assets is necessary, which we refer to this assessment as the Qualitative
Screen. In performing the Qualitative Screen, we are required to make assumptions and judgments including but not limited to
the following: the evaluation of macroeconomic conditions as related to our business, industry and market trends, and the
overall future financial performance of our reporting units and future opportunities in the markets in which they operate. If after
performing the Qualitative Screen impairment indicators are present, we would perform a quantitative impairment test to
estimate the fair value of goodwill and certain intangible assets. In doing so, we would estimate future revenue, consider
