The Company did not recognize any goodwill impairment charges during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As dialysis treatments are an essential, life-sustaining service for patients who depend on them, the Company's operations have continued and are currently expected to continue throughout the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. However, the ultimate impact of the dynamic and evolving COVID-19 pandemic on the Company will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including among other things the severity and duration of the pandemic, the impact on our patient population, the pandemic’s continuing impact on the U.S. and global economies and unemployment, and the timing, scope and effectiveness of governmental responses. While the Company does not currently expect a material adverse impact to its business as a result of this public health crisis, there can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material adverse impact on one or more of the Company's businesses. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized a $41,037 goodwill impairment charge in its Germany kidney care business. This charge resulted primarily from a change in relevant discount rates, a decline in then current and expected future patient census and an increase in then current and expected future costs, principally due to wage increases expected to result from legislation announced at that time. Developments, events, changes in operating performance and other changes in circumstances since the dates of the Company’s last annual goodwill impairment assessments have not caused management to believe it is more likely than not that the fair values of any of the Company's reporting units would be less than their respective carrying amounts as of June 30, 2020. Except for the Company's Germany kidney care reporting unit as described further in Note 10 to the 10-K, none of the Company's various other reporting units were considered at risk of significant goodwill impairment as of June 30, 2020.
