4. Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the estimated fair value of net assets acquired, when accounted for by the acquisition method of accounting. As of September 30, 2024, the total balance of goodwill was $0, which represented a decrease of $1,261 from the balance as of  December 31, 2023 due to a non-cash impairment charge recorded as of June 30, 2024. 

 

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, goodwill is to be assessed at least annually for impairment, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable, by assessing qualitative factors or performing a quantitative analysis in determining whether it is more likely than not that its fair value exceeds the carrying value. The measurement date of the Company's annual goodwill impairment test had been set to October 1, but with no remaining goodwill for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the annual testing will not be performed.

 

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company determined that the effects of the expected decline in operations due to the impact of certain client relationships constituted a triggering event for the All Other reporting unit. The Company conducted an interim test of the fair value of the All Other reporting unit's goodwill for potential impairment related to the triggering event. The Company applied solely the income approach to determine the fair value of the All Other reporting unit. The results of this approach indicated that the carrying value exceeded its fair value by 58%. The Company therefore concluded that the goodwill was impaired as of June 30, 2024 and recorded a non-cash impairment charge for its remaining balance of $1,261.
