[1] | In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company met all of the assets held for sale criteria related to the divestitures of its inks product line and fragrances product line (excluding its essential oils product line). Goodwill was allocated to those disposal groups and was determined to be fully impaired based on the estimated fair value of each of the disposal groups. In 2021, the fair value of the fragrances product line (excluding its essential oils product line) disposal group increased, which increased the value of goodwill allocated to the disposal group by $0.8 million. See Note 14, Divestitures, for additional information.
[2] | In 2021, the Company acquired Flavor Solutions, Inc. In 2022, the Company acquired Endemix. See Note 2, Acquisitions, for additional information.
