Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
We completed our annual impairment test of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, we qualitatively assessed whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of any of our reporting units was less than carrying value, and concluded that the quantitative impairment test would not be required, and no goodwill impairment charge was required as of December 31, 2024. While we concluded that we did not have a goodwill impairment charge as of December 31, 2024, and we do not believe that future impairments are probable, we will need to maintain the current ongoing performance levels at each of our reporting units in future periods to sustain their goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets carrying values.
In connection with our operating segment reorganization on January 1, 2023, we reassessed our reporting units and reallocated goodwill from the reporting units that existed prior to the change to the new reporting units, using a relative fair value approach similar to that used when a portion of a reporting unit is to be disposed of. We performed goodwill impairment tests as of January 1, 2023 on both the reporting units in place prior to the change and the new reporting units, and concluded that the estimated fair values of each of the reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amounts and, therefore, no impairment charge was necessary.
