During the nine-months ended September 30, 2025, we reviewed the most sensitive assumptions to determine whether or not there were any changes in the assumptions from the valuation that was performed at the end of 2024. Based upon this review, there were no significant changes to the assumptions from the valuation that was performed at the end of 2024, and as such there was no impairment on goodwill, orbital slots or trade name.
