As further discussed in Note 4, "Acquisitions," during 2023 the Company recorded goodwill of $0.1 million related to the acquisition of SPI on September 7, 2023 and $4.8 million related to the acquisition of DDI on October 26, 2023.  The goodwill related to these acquisitions is provisional and subject to adjustment during the measurement period.  The Company expects to complete its purchase price allocations during the first quarter of 2024.  The estimates, allocations and calculations recorded at December 31, 2023 are subject to change as we obtain further information; therefore, the final fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed may not agree with the estimates included in these consolidated financial statements. 

 
As further discussed in Note 4 , " Acquisitions ," during 2022, the Company recorded goodwill of $4.1  million related to the acquisition of CSuite on November 1, 2021 and $1.6  million related to the acquisition of SNS on November 18, 2022.  Also,  during the first quarter of 2023 the Company settled the working capital true-up, related to the acquisition of CSuite, that decreased goodwill by less than $0.1 million.
 

Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually as of November 30, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Although the Company believes its estimates of fair value are reasonable, actual financial results could differ from those estimates due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making such estimates. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting units, the amount of the goodwill impairment charge, or both.  Based on the assessment performed, no goodwill impairments were recognized in 2023 and 2022.
