Intangible Asset Impairments In November 2019, we announced that we would be ending our Caisson TMVR program. The announcement triggered an evaluation of finite and indefinite lived assets for impairment. As a result, we fully impaired the IPR&D asset and goodwill of $89.0 million and $42.4 million, respectively. During the second quarter of 2019, we determined that there would be a delay in the estimated commercialization date of our obstructive sleep apnea product currently under development, which was acquired in the ImThera acquisition. This delay constituted a triggering event that required an evaluation of the IPR&D asset arising from the ImThera acquisition for impairment. Based on the assessment performed, we determined that the IPR&D asset was impaired and as a result, recorded an impairment of $50.3 million, which is included in our Neuromodulation segment. The estimated fair value of IPR&D was determined using the income approach. Estimating the fair value of the IPR&D asset requires various assumptions, including revenue growth rates, timing and probability of commercialization and the discount rate. Future delays in commercialization or changes in management estimates could result in further impairment. Intangible Asset Reclassification During the third quarter of 2019, upon receiving FDA approval of the LifeSPARC system, we reclassified the IPR&D asset of $107.5 million from the acquisition of TandemLife to finite-lived developed technology intangible assets and began amortizing the intangible asset over a useful life of 15 years. Goodwill The following table represents the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment (in thousands):

(1)Other includes goodwill associated the Company’s Heart Valves business, which was disposed of on June 1, 2021. (2)During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized a $21.3 million impairment of goodwill allocated to Heart Valves. Refer to “Note 4. Divestiture of Heart Valve Business” for additional information. Due to our change in reportable segments, as discussed in “Note 1. Nature of Operations,” we performed a quantitative assessment as of October 1, 2021 of the goodwill associated with the previously reported Cardiovascular reporting unit and concluded that the goodwill was not impaired. We then allocated $403.9 million and $102.5 million of the previously reported Cardiovascular goodwill to the new Cardiopulmonary and Advanced Circulatory Support reporting units, respectively, based on their relative fair values. We performed a quantitative assessment for our Cardiopulmonary, Neuromodulation and Advanced Circulatory Support reporting units as of October 1, 2021. The quantitative impairment assessment was performed using management’s current estimate of future cash flows. We concluded that the fair value of our Cardiopulmonary, Neuromodulation and Advanced Circulatory Support segments exceeded the carrying value of the respective reporting units by 60%, 658% and 45%, respectively, as evidenced by the estimated fair value of our Cardiopulmonary, Neuromodulation and Advanced Circulatory Support reporting units calculated for the purpose of reconciling the fair value of our reporting units to our market capitalization. Therefore, we concluded that our Cardiopulmonary, Neuromodulation and Advanced Circulatory Support reporting units’ goodwill was not impaired on the October 1, 2021 test date. On December 2, 2020, LivaNova entered into a Purchase Agreement for the divestiture of certain of LivaNova’s subsidiaries as well as certain other assets and liabilities relating to the Company’s Heart Valve business. We performed a quantitative assessment as of December 2, 2020 of the goodwill associated with the previously reported Cardiovascular reporting unit and concluded that the goodwill was not impaired. We then allocated $21.3 million of the previously reported Cardiovascular goodwill to the Heart Valves disposal group based on the relative fair values of the businesses within the previously reported Cardiovascular reporting unit and recognized a $21.3 million impairment to the allocated goodwill. For additional information refer to “Note 4. Divestiture of Heart Valve Business.” Cumulative goodwill impairments from continuing operations since the merger of Cyberonics, Inc. and Sorin S.p.A. in October 2015 total $63.7 million.
