The Company acquired goodwill within the Retail reporting unit of $1.1 million related to an immaterial acquisition during the second quarter of 2022.

The Company has indefinite-lived intangible assets that are not amortized, consisting primarily of indefinite-lived trade names and liquor licenses. The carrying amount of indefinite-lived intangible assets was $67.8 million and $67.6 million as of October 8, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively.

The Company reviews goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, during the fourth quarter of each year, and more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment is probable. Following the change in the reportable segments in the current quarter, as disclosed in Note 1, the Company then evaluated the reporting units within the Wholesale segment in accordance with ASC 350 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. As a result of the evaluation, the Company concluded that there was a single reporting unit within the Wholesale segment. Due to the change in reporting units, the Company performed a test for impairment as of the beginning of the third quarter immediately before and after the change. Testing goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment requires management to make significant estimates about the Company’s future performance, cash flows, and other assumptions that can be affected by potential changes in economic, industry or market conditions, business operations, competition, or the Company’s stock price and market capitalization.

During the Company's current quarter impairment review, projected cash flows were discounted based on a weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") of 9.6%. This WACC was developed from adjusted market based and company specific factors, current interest rates, equity risk premiums, and other market-based expectations regarding expected investment returns. The development of the WACC requires estimates of an equity rate of return and a debt rate of return, which are specific to the industry in which the Wholesale reporting unit operates. The Company concluded that the fair values of both the previous Food Distribution reporting unit, as well as the current Wholesale reporting unit, were substantially in excess of their carrying values.
