The Company has evaluated whether events or circumstances had occurred that would indicate it is more likely than not that any of our goodwill or other intangible assets were impaired. Factors considered in this evaluation included, among other things, the amount of the fair value over carrying value from the annual impairment testing performed as of October 1, 2019, changes in discount rates, and the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future revenues and cash flows. Based on this evaluation, we concluded that triggering events had occurred, and we reviewed our assets for impairment as of the end of first quarter 2020. For purposes of this review, we updated the discount rates to reflect the increased uncertainty of the cash flows and also updated revenue and cash flow forecasts. As a result of this review, we recorded impairment charges in our first quarter 2020 results totaling $171.1 million. Of this total, $112.0 million was for impairments of goodwill, $42.2 million for impairments of gaming license rights and $16.9 million for the impairments of trademarks. Our conclusions based on our reviews as of the end of second quarter and third quarter of 2020 were that no additional impairment charges were required.
