Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the cost of an acquisition in excess of the fair values assigned to identifiable net assets acquired. The Company recorded Goodwill of: $307.4 million as part of the HomeLink® acquisition in 2013; $3.7 million as part of the acquisition of Vaporsens, Inc. ("Vaporsens") in the second quarter of 2020; $0.2 million as part of the acquisition of Air-Craftglass Production BV ("Air-Craftglass") in the third quarter of 2020; $1.0 million as a part of the acquisition of Argil, Inc. ("Argil") in the fourth quarter of 2020; and $2.0 million as part of the acquisition of Guardian Optical Technologies ("Guardian") in the first quarter of 2021. The carrying value of Goodwill as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $313.2 million and $313.8 million, respectively, as set forth in the table below:

In addition to annual impairment testing, which is performed as of the first day of the fourth quarter, the Company continuously monitors for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions in determining fair value of goodwill or other intangible assets thus resulting in the need for interim impairment testing, including long-term revenue growth projections, profitability, discount rates, recent market valuations from transactions by comparable companies, volatility in the Company's market capitalization, and general industry, market and macroeconomic conditions. The impact of the UAW strike, component shortages, supply chain constraints, inflation, and labor shortages were considered in the most recently completed quarter, but did not indicate the need for interim impairment testing. The Company also acquired In-Process Research & Development ("In-Process R & D") as part of the acquisitions of: Vaporsens; Air-Craftglass; Argil; and Guardian, each of which has been previously disclosed.
