(1)For the year ended December 31, 2023, consist of $349.2 million impairment charges related to Mineral properties, plant and equipment, net (see below for further information) and $4.1 million of non-cash write-offs of capitalized cloud computing arrangement implementation costs included in Other non-current assets. (2)Consists of non-cash write-downs of various assets and materials and supplies inventories recorded during the third quarter of 2023. (3)For the year ended December 31, 2023, consists of $5.7 million non-cash write-offs of capitalized cloud computing arrangement implementation costs included in O ther non-current assets. For the year ended December 31, 2021, consists of impairment charges related to the Royalty Portfolio sale, based on the differences between the carrying amount of the assets within the Royalty Portfolio, and the estimated net transaction price. Impairment charges The Company reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company updated its technical report, based on additional drilling and revised geological interpretation, which resulted in a decrease in the mineral reserves and mineral resources at the Çöpler pit and an increase in mineral reserves and mineral resources at the Greater Çakmaktepe extension. The decrease in mineral reserves and mineral resources at the Çöpler pit was primarily due to the Company's plans to construct a grind-leach circuit rather than a copper concentrator as had been previously contemplated in the Çöpler Copper-Gold (“C2”) project. As a result, the Company determined that certain mineral properties and exploration and evaluation assets related primarily to the Çöpler pit were impaired. This impairment charge is not related to the Çöpler Incident. As the technical report changes were finalized during the preparation of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge at Çöpler of $349.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 and disclosed such impairment herein. As a result of the mineral reserve and mineral resource changes, the Company evaluated all long-lived assets in the Çöpler segment for recoverability using estimates of pre-tax undiscounted cash flows. Based on the results of the recoverability test, the Company concluded that no additional impairments existed as of December 31, 2023. A short-term gold price of $1,945, which decreases over five years to a long-term gold price of $1,740, was a significant assumption used in the recoverability test. The Company evaluated its long-lived assets for impairment as of December 31, 2023 using the information available at that time. On February 13, 2024, the Company suspended operations at Çöpler as a result of a significant slip on the heap leach pad. This information was not considered in the Company’s long-lived asset impairment evaluation as it occurred subsequent to December 31, 2023. Refer to Note 24 for further information. Impairment of goodwill The Company evaluates its goodwill for impairment annually at December 31 or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill test for the Seabee reporting unit. Based on this test, the Company concluded that Goodwill was impaired and recorded a non-cash impairment of $49.8 million, which represented the full goodwill balance of the reporting unit. The impairment was driven by a deterioration in underlying cash flows as a result of a decrease in mineral reserves and mineral resources. The decrease in mineral reserves and mineral resources was due to updates to the block model, updates to the cut-off grade calculation, and the use of an incremental cut-off grade for development. The Seabee long-lived asset group, which is the same as the reporting unit, was evaluated for impairment prior to the quantitative goodwill test and no impairment was identified. The Company measured the impairments by comparing the total fair value of the Seabee reporting unit to its carrying amount. The estimated fair value of the Seabee reporting unit was determined using an income and market approach and is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement due to certain assumptions that are not based on observable market data. The significant assumptions to the fair value measured included: (i) post-tax cash flow information, which includes operating and capital expenditures, based on the Company's current business plan, (ii) a short-term gold price of $1,945 which decreases over five years to a long-term gold price of $1,740, (iii) current estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, (iv) in-situ multiples, and (v) a post-tax discount rate range of 5.0% to 6.0%.
