6. Goodwill and Other Intangibles

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets when accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill is not amortized but reviewed for impairment. The Company's goodwill balance relates to the NWL Acquisition in fiscal 2024, the acquisition of Neeltran, Inc. in fiscal 2021, the Northeast Power Systems, Inc. ("NEPSI") acquisition in fiscal 2020, and the acquisition of Infinia Technology Corporation in fiscal 2017 and is reported in the Grid business segment. Goodwill is reviewed annually on February 28th and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the goodwill might not be recoverable. Goodwill increased by $4.7 million during the fiscal year ended  March 31, 2025, related to the NWL Acquisition. There were no changes to Goodwill during the six months ended September 30, 2025.

 

The Company did not identify any triggers to assess impairment in the three and six months ended  September 30, 2025 or 2024.
