NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)<br />

Credit Risk<br />

We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to these financial<br />

instruments, but we do not expect any of the counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. To manage credit risks,<br />

we select counterparties based on credit ratings, limit our exposure to any single counterparty under defined<br />

guidelines and monitor the market position with each counterparty.<br />

See Note 24: Fair Value Measurements in these Notes for the amount of the assets and liabilities related to<br />

these foreign currency forward contracts in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 1, 2011, and see our<br />

Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Equity for additional information on changes in accumulated<br />

other comprehensive income (loss) for the three fiscal years ended July 1, 2011.<br />

NOTE 22: IMPAIRMENT OF GOODWILL AND OTHER LONG-LIVED ASSETS<br />

Based on our policy as described at Note 1: Significant Accounting Policies in these Notes, we test our<br />

goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, as well as when events or<br />

circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, we performed our annual<br />

review for impairment of our reporting units’ goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. To test for<br />

potential impairment, we determined the fair value of our reporting units based on projected discounted cash flows<br />

and market-based multiples applied to sales and earnings. Because of the global recession and postponement of<br />

capital projects which significantly weakened demand, and the general decline of peer company valuations<br />

impacting our valuation, it appeared that goodwill in our Broadcast and New Media Solutions reporting unit<br />

(formerly a separate reportable segment and which, effective for the third quarter of fiscal 2011, is reported under<br />

our Integrated Network Solutions segment) was impaired. This was based on the results of step one testing that<br />

indicated the adjusted net book value of this reporting unit exceeded its fair value. We then allocated this fair value<br />

to Broadcast and New Media Solutions’ underlying assets and liabilities to determine the implied fair value of<br />

goodwill.<br />

In conjunction with the above-described impairment review, we conducted a review for impairment of<br />

Broadcast and New Media Solutions’ other long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets and capitalized<br />

software, as any impairment of these assets must be considered prior to the conclusion of the impairment review.<br />

The fair value of Broadcast and New Media Solutions’ other long-lived assets was determined based on projected<br />

discounted cash flows based on future sales and operating costs, except for product trade names, for which we<br />

projected discounted cash flows based on the relief-from-royalty method.<br />
