Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Management completed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill using a third-party quantitative assessment as of the first day of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. The fair value of each reporting unit was determined and compared to the carrying value. The inputs to the fair value are defined in the fair value hierarchy as Level 3 inputs. If the carrying value had exceeded the fair value, an impairment charge would have been recorded based on that difference. The annual impairment analysis resulted in no impairment for 2023. Management completed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill using a qualitative approach during fiscal year 2022, which resulted in no impairment charges.

Amortization expense for intangibles totaled $71,085, $9,600, and $7,753 in fiscal years 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows: $93,200 in 2024, $92,900 in 2025, $92,300 in 2026, $91,700 in 2027, $90,900 in 2028 and $1,129,987 thereafter.

All definite-lived intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis with the exception of definite-lived customer relationships intangibles and product and service-related intangibles, which are amortized on either a straight-line or an accelerated basis.

 

The weighted average remaining amortization period for intangibles was 18 years as of May 31, 2023 and eight years as of May 31, 2022.
