(1) Includes measurement period adjustments The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually as of July 31 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset might be impaired. In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, management completed an updated comprehensive review of the Silent-Aire reporting unit, including its current quarter results and its nearer term forecast. Due to current quarter results being lower than its business plan, and the nearer term forecast being revised to reflect lower margins and earnings, the Company determined a triggering event had occurred and a quantitative test of goodwill for possible impairment was necessary. As a result of the goodwill impairment test, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $184 million within restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statements of income in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, which was determined by comparing the carrying amount of the reporting unit to its fair value. The Silent-Aire reporting unit has no remaining goodwill balance as of March 31, 2023. The Company used a discounted cash flow model to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit. The primary assumptions used in the model were management's internal projections of future cash flows, the weighted-average cost of capital and the long-term growth rate, which are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement." There were no other triggering events requiring an impairment assessment be conducted in the six months ended March 31, 2023. However, it is possible that future changes in circumstances would require the Company to record additional non-cash impairment charges. The Company’s other intangible assets, primarily from business acquisitions, consisted of (in millions):
