6. | GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET
The carrying amount of goodwill at December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, was $14.2 million for Trex Residential. For fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company completed its annual impairment test of goodwill for its residential reporting unit in Trex Residential utilizing the qualitative assessment and concluded it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the residential reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. For fiscal year 2021, the Company elected to perform the impairment test of goodwill for its commercial railing reporting unit and its staging reporting unit utilizing the quantitative assessment. The Company performed a quantitative assessment primarily due to a reduction in project commitments, which adversely impacted project backlog and forecasted net sales and EBITDA. The reduction in project commitments was influenced by a continued delay in new projects due to lingering uncertainty created in the commercial railing and staging markets by the COVID-19 virus. The delay in new projects, coupled with the Company’s successful fulfillment of its pre-pandemic projects, resulted in lower project backlog, and reduced forecasted net sales and EBITDA, which became apparent in the fourth quarter of 2021. In performing the quantitative assessment, the Company employed a combination of the Income Approach (i.e., Discounted Cash Flow Method) and the Market Approach. The Discounted Cash Flow Method is a multiple period discounting model in which the fair values of the reporting units are determined by discounting the projected free cash flows using an appropriate discount rate. The Market Approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets and liabilities, such as a business. Using these methodologies resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss of the total amount of goodwill of $42.5 million and $11.8 million at its commercial railing and staging reporting units, respectively. The impairment loss was the amount by which the carrying amount exceeded the fair value of each reporting unit, not to exceed the amount of goodwill of each reporting unit. The Company also considered the income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss. On December 30, 2022, the Company sold Trex Commercial. As such, there were no impairment considerations for Trex Commercial as of December 31, 2022, or December 31, 2023. Level 3 inputs used to determine the fair value of each reporting unit include management’s future cash flow projections, a weighted average cost of capital and a residual growth rate. The cash flows used to determine fair value are dependent on a number of significant management assumptions, such as expectations of future performance and the expected future economic environment, which are partly based on historical experience. Differences between actual and expected results may be material and dependent on future actions and plans. The discount rate and the residual growth rate are based on management’s judgment of the rates that would be utilized by a hypothetical market participant. The use of different assumptions, estimates or judgments, including the estimated future cash flows, the discount rate used to discount estimated cash flows to their net present value, and the residual growth rate, could materially increase or decrease the fair value of the reporting unit and, accordingly, could materially increase or decrease related impairment charges. The Company’s intangible assets, purchased in 2018, consist of domain names for Trex Residential. At December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, intangible assets were $6.3 million and accumulated amortization was $2.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Intangible asset amounts were determined based on the estimated economics of the asset and are amortized over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis over 15 years, which approximates the pattern in which the economic benefits are expected to be received. The Company evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and considers events or circumstances that may warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that may indicate an impairment. Intangible asset amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2023, December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was $0.4 million, $0.4 million, and $0.4 million, respectively.
