Previous report
At June 30, 2025, qualitative factors indicated it could be more likely than not that the carrying value of the Targus tradename in the Consumer Products segment could be impaired. In order to estimate the fair value of the Targus tradename management must make certain estimates and assumptions which, among other things, included an assessment of market conditions, projected cash flows, discount rates, and revenue growth rates. The inputs for the fair value calculations included a 3.5% growth rate to calculate the terminal value, a discount rate of 22.2%, and a royalty rate of 1.5%. This resulted in an impairment charge for the Targus tradename in the amount of $1.5 million at June 30, 2025. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and any impairment charge for the tradename. Any changes from our current estimates and assumptions that result in materially different estimates and assumptions in the future in response to changing economic conditions, changes in our business or for other reasons could result in the recognition of additional impairment charges in future periods. There were no impairments of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles of other reporting units identified in an interim basis during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Management evaluates many different financial and non-financial metrics to assess the individual performance of each of these various business segments. However, across most businesses, management primarily assesses each business’s financial performance based upon each of the businesses revenues and operating profits generated excluding non-cash charges and the impact of gains and losses related to securities and other investments held. Management believes that gains and losses on individual investments are generally impacted by individual characteristics specific to each investment and although this has an impact on our overall financial performance the impact of these gains and losses may not be indicative of the overall strength or weakness in each of our business operations. Additionally, in evaluating the financial performance of each of our businesses, management monitors the increase or decrease in operating results from period to period while factoring in the relative volatility inherent in each industry in which these businesses operate. Management recognizes that some of the Company’s businesses exhibit more volatile results.
