Previous wording

Our intangible assets and goodwill represent a substantial amount of our total assets. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, due to a decline in our stock price, we identified an intangible asset and goodwill impairment assessment triggering event. As a result of the ensuing assessments, we recognized asset impairments totaling $586.0 million consisting of $497.2 million and $88.8 million of non-cash impairments associated with our indefinite-lived franchise agreements intangible asset and goodwill, respectively, reducing the franchise agreements' carrying value from $2.1 billion to $1.6 billion and the goodwill carrying value from $929.6 million to $840.8 million. As of June 30, 2025, after the recognition of these asset impairments, the fair values of our franchise agreements and goodwill are equal to their respective carrying values. Various estimates and assumptions requiring management's judgment were utilized to determine the fair values for these assets, but future events and changes in circumstances could result in changes to these estimates and assumptions. We cannot accurately predict the likelihood or potential amount and timing of any further impairments of intangible assets or goodwill. Should the fair values of our intangible assets or goodwill decline further in future periods, additional impairment charges may be recognized. Such charges could be material, adversely impacting our earnings and total assets.
