Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. There were no impairment charges related to HSNi's long-lived assets in fiscal 2014 or 2013. As we periodically reassess estimated future cash flows and asset fair values, changes in our estimates and assumptions may cause us to realize impairment charges in the future.
