NOTE E – OTHER ASSETS

Other assets consist primarily of land use rights related to a production facility in China.  At December 30, 2017, other assets also included a secured loan to the former supplier of the Companys nutrition bars.  The Company extended non-revolving credit to this former supplier to allow them to acquire equipment that was necessary to manufacture the USANA nutrition bars, which was secured by the equipment. This relationship was intended to provide improved supply chain stability for USANA and create a mutually beneficial relationship between the parties. Interest accrued at an annual interest rate of LIBOR plus 400 basis points. The note had a maturity date of February 1, 2024 and was to be repaid by a combination of cash payments and credits for the manufacture of USANAs nutrition bars.    



A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events; it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Factors considered in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting payments when due. During the first half of 2017, the Company experienced challenges with the former supplier of nutrition bars and subsequently determined to no longer use this supplier. The Company evaluated the recoverability of the note receivable from this supplier and recorded impairments totaling $2,734 during the year ended December 30, 2017.    The total contractual unpaid principal balance, including accrued unpaid interest on the note receivable from this supplier as of December 30, 2017 was $6,734.  During April 2018, the Company reached a settlement with the supplier to terminate the relationship and received $4,800 in cash as payment in full under the terms of the settlement.
