_______________ (1)As a result of our new organizational structure, effective January 1, 2022, streamlining our operations from four business segments to three business segments, we reallocated goodwill previously held by our former Aviation Systems segment to our remaining business segments as of January 1, 2021, the earliest period presented in these Notes. See additional information below and “Segment Reorganization” in. Note A — Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Standards in these Notes. New Organizational Structure Effective January 1, 2022, we implemented a new organizational structure resulting in changes to our operating segments (which are also our reportable segments and are referred to as our business segments) and reporting units (which are our business segments or one level below our business segments). Implementing the new structure reduced our business segments, from four to three, and our reporting units from eleven to nine. As a result, we reassigned goodwill to our new reporting unit structure on a relative fair value basis, tested goodwill related to impacted reporting units immediately before and after the reassignment and determined that no impairment existed. Precision Engagement Business Allocation and Impairment During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we realigned our precision engagement business from our Agile Development Group (“ADG”) reporting unit to our Electro Optical reporting unit. In connection with the realignment, we transferred $325 million of goodwill associated with the precision engagement business to our Electro Optical reporting unit on a relative fair value basis. Immediately before and after the reassignment, we tested goodwill assigned to each reporting unit. As a result of these tests, concurrently with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we concluded that goodwill related to our ADG reporting unit was impaired immediately before the reassignment and recorded a non-cash charge of $313 million for the impairment in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). The impairment of goodwill was due to lower sales volume in our precision engagement business, reflecting U.S. Government spending priorities with respect to precision weapons, and higher interest rates. ADG and Electro Optical are both part of our Integrated Mission Systems segment. Broadband, Electro Optical and ADG Interim Tests Indications of potential impairment of goodwill related to our Broadband, Electro Optical and ADG reporting units were present as of September 30, 2022. Consequently, in connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we performed interim tests of each of these reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment. We determined that goodwill related to our Broadband and Electro Optical reporting units was impaired and goodwill related to our ADG reporting unit was not impaired as of September 30, 2022. Broadband and Electro Optical goodwill impairments: As a result of the interim tests of goodwill related to our Broadband and Electro Optical reporting units, we recorded $489 million of non-cash charges for the impairment of goodwill ($355 million related to Broadband and $134 million related to Electro Optical) in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). Broadband is part of our Communications Systems segment (as noted above Electro Optical is part of our Integrated Mission Systems segment). The impairment of goodwill related to our Electro Optical reporting unit was due to persistently lower demand in the precision engagement business and an associated decrease in our outlook for the business, as well as rising interest rates. The impairment of goodwill related to our Broadband reporting unit was due to lower volume on legacy platforms, which also resulted in a decrease in our outlook for the reporting unit, and higher interest rates. CPS Business Impairment During the quarter ended April 2, 2021, we determined the criteria to be classified as held for sale were met with respect to the CPS business within our other non-reportable business segment and assigned $174 million of goodwill to the disposal group on a relative fair value basis. In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended April 2, 2021, we concluded that goodwill related to the CPS business was impaired and we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $62 million, which is included in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited). CTS Impairment During the quarter ended July 2, 2021, we adjusted our Aviation Systems segment reporting to better align our businesses and separated the CTS business from our Commercial Aviation Solutions reporting unit, creating a new reporting unit within the Commercial Aviation Solutions sector of our Aviation Systems segment. Immediately before and after our goodwill assignments, we completed an assessment of any potential goodwill impairment under our former and new reporting unit structure and determined that no impairment existed. To test for potential impairment of the long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, related to CTS, we compared the estimated future cash flows (on an undiscounted basis) to be generated from the use and hypothetical eventual disposition of the asset group to its carrying value and, as a result, we determined the carrying value of the CTS asset group was not recoverable. Next, we prepared an estimate of the fair value of CTS based on a combination of market-based valuation techniques, utilizing quoted market prices and comparable publicly reported transactions and projected discounted cash flows. We compared the fair value of CTS to our carrying value and recorded a $145 million non-cash charge for the impairment of CTS long-lived assets, including $63 million for impairment of identifiable intangible assets, which is included in the “Impairment of goodwill and other assets” line item in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited) for the three quarters ended October 1, 2021. See Note H — Property, Plant and Equipment, net in these Notes for additional information. Fair Value Determinations Fair value determinations were determined based on a combination of market-based valuation techniques, utilizing quoted market prices and comparable publicly reported transactions, and projected discounted cash flows.
