(1)Primarily currency translation adjustments. (2)Goodwill acquired related to the acquisition of RouteSmart Technologies. See Note 4 for more information. We evaluated each of our reporting units during the fourth quarters of 2025 and 2024 and the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values as of the end of 2025 and 2024; therefore, no impairment was recorded during any of the years presented. In connection with our annual impairment testing of goodwill conducted in the fourth quarter of 2023, we recorded an impairment charge of $36 million for all of the goodwill attributable to our FedEx Dataworks reporting unit. The key factors contributing to the goodwill impairment were underperformance of the ShopRunner business during 2023, including base business erosion, and the failure to attain the level of operating synergies and revenue and profit growth anticipated at the time of acquisition. Based on these factors, our outlook for the business changed in the fourth quarter of 2023. OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS.
