(1)Comprised of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit goodwill only.
(2)For the nine months ended August 25, 2024 the Company recorded a Beyond Yoga® goodwill noncash impairment charge of $36.3 million.
(3)For the nine months ended August 25, 2024 the Company recorded goodwill of $15.9 million in connection with the acquisition of all operating assets related to Levi’s® brands from Expofaro S.A.S, the Company’s former distributor in Colombia.
During the third quarter of 2025, as part of the Company’s annual review of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit, the Company elected to perform a single step quantitative impairment test on the goodwill and indefinite lived trademark intangible assigned to the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit. The Company engaged third-party valuation specialists and used industry accepted valuation models and criteria that were reviewed and approved by various levels of management. The Company assessed the fair value of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit using the discounted cash flow method under the income approach, utilizing estimated cash flows and a terminal value, discounted at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows. The trademark fair value was determined using the relief-from-royalty method to utilize the discounted projected future cash flows. Although the fair values of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit and the indefinite lived trademark intangible exceeded their carrying values, the fair values of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit and the indefinite lived trademark intangible were less than 10% over their carrying values.
The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the reporting unit included revenue growth rates, profit margins, operating expenses, capital expenditures, terminal value and a discount rate. The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the trademark intangible asset included revenue growth rates, a discount rate and a royalty rate. As our long-term strategies change, planned business performance expectations are not met over time, or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly, then the estimated fair values of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit, the Beyond Yoga® indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset, or both might decline and lead to impairment charges in the future. Several factors could impact the Beyond Yoga® brand's ability to achieve expected future cash flows, including the success of retail store and international expansion, store and e-commerce productivity, the impact of promotional activity, continued economic volatility and potential operational challenges related to macroeconomic factors and other strategic initiatives to drive increased profitability.
During the third quarter of 2024, as part of the Company’s annual review of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit, the Company elected to perform a single step quantitative impairment test on the goodwill and indefinite lived trademark intangible assigned to the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit and performed impairment tests on the related customer relationship intangible assets. The Company engaged third-party valuation specialists and used industry accepted valuation models and criteria that were reviewed and approved by various levels of management. The Company assessed the fair value of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit as of the test date, May 27, 2024, using the discounted cash flow method under the income approach, utilizing estimated cash flows and a terminal value, discounted at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows. As a result of this assessment, we concluded that the carrying value of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit exceeded the estimated fair value by $36.3 million, which was recorded as a noncash impairment charge to goodwill.
Prior to the assessment of the reporting unit, we concluded that the carrying values of the trademark and customer relationship intangible assets exceeded their estimated fair values. The trademark fair value was determined using the relief-from-royalty method to utilize the discounted projected future cash flows. Based on this assessment, we recorded a $66.0 million noncash impairment charge related to the Beyond Yoga® trademark. The customer relationship intangible assets fair values were determined using the multi-period excess earnings and distributor methods under the income approach. Based on these assessments, we recorded a $9.1 million noncash impairment charge related to the customer relationship intangible assets.
The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the reporting unit included revenue growth rates, profit margins, operating expenses, capital expenditures, terminal value and a discount rate. The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the trademark intangible asset included revenue growth rates, a discount rate and a royalty rate. The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the customer relationship intangible assets included revenues from existing customers and discount rates.
Total impairment charges for the nine months ended August 25, 2024 were $111.4 million and were recorded within “Goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges” on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. During 2024, the Company appointed new Beyond Yoga® executive management and implemented a new strategic plan for growth and expansion, resulting in an adverse impact on expected cash flows.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company recognized $5.5 million in goodwill impairment charges related to the footwear business in its Europe segment as a result of the decision to discontinue the category in connection with Project Fuel.
