Goodwill and Intangible Assets

  1. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

For purposes of performing our goodwill impairment analysis, we have identified our reporting units as North America, Latin America, EMEA and APAC. In 2021, the Coatings reporting unit was sold and is no longer considered a reporting unit.

We have the option of first analyzing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. We may elect to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test in lieu of the qualitative test, and in 2023 we performed the qualitative goodwill test on all reporting units. In 2022, we elected to perform the quantitative goodwill test on all reporting units. Based on our analysis, we determined that there wasno impairment of goodwill as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

In 2021, we divested identified intangible assets, excluding goodwill, with a carrying value of $0.9 million and $1.4 million in the categories of customer lists and trade names, respectively, as a result of the sale of the Coatings business discussed in Note 5.
