NOTE 12 -GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2025 were as follows:

The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that fair value is below carrying value. In connection with the 2025 Segment Realignment, the Company realigned its operating and reportable segments which changed the composition of certain reporting units. The associated reporting units' goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were assessed for impairment before and after the 2025 Segment Realignment.

Prior to the 2025 Segment Realignment, the Company performed qualitative testing onfive of its reporting units and performed quantitative testing onthree of its reporting units. The qualitative evaluation is an assessment of factors, including reporting unit or asset specific operating results and cost factors, as well as industry, market and macroeconomic conditions, to determine whether it is more likely than not (more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit or asset is less than the respective carrying amount, including goodwill. The results of the qualitative assessments indicated that it is not more likely than not that the fair values of thefive reporting units were less than their carrying values. The Protection reporting unit (aggregation of the Safety and Shelter businesses), formerly within the Water & Protection segment, and the Industrial Solutions reporting unit and the Donatelle Plastics reporting unit, formerly within the Electronics & Industrial segment, were tested by applying the quantitative assessment. The Company used a combination of discounted cash flow models (a form of the income approach) and the Guideline Public Company Method (a form of the market approach). No impairments were identified. The estimated fair value of the Protection reporting unit, exceeded its carrying value by approximately five percent. The estimated fair value of the Donatelle Plastics reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximatelytwo percent, following the recognition of the goodwill at fair value as of the acquisition date of July 28, 2024.

After the 2025 Segment Realignment, the Company assessed and re-defined certain reporting units, including reallocation of goodwill on a relative fair value basis, as applicable, to reporting units impacted. The Company performed quantitative testing on allsix reporting units. For the quantitative assessments, the Company used a combination of discounted cash flow models (a form of the income approach) and the Guideline Public Company Method (a form of the market approach). No impairments were identified except for the Aramids reporting unit (aggregation of the Nomex® and Kevlar®), formerly within the Protection reporting unit in the Water & Protection segment and now in the IndustrialsCo segment.

As a result of the related acquisition method of accounting in connection with the DWDP Merger, EIDP’s assets and liabilities were measured at fair value resulting in increases to the Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets that are heritage EIDP assets, including the Aramids reporting unit. The fair value assessment at the time of the DWDP Merger increased the risk that any declines in financial projections, including changes to key assumptions, could have a material, negative impact on the fair value of the Company’s reporting units and assets, and therefore could result in an impairment. As a result of the analysis performed after the 2025 Segment Realignment, the Company concluded that the carrying amount of the Aramids reporting unit within the IndustrialsCo segment exceeded its fair value resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $768 million. The Company’s significant assumptions in the analysis include projected revenue growth, EBITDA margin, weighted average cost of capital and terminal growth rates and projected EBITDA and derived multiples from comparable market transactions for the market approach. As of March 31, 2025, there isno remaining goodwill within the Aramids reporting unit.

In connection with the preparation of the full year 2023 financial statements, macroeconomic triggering events required the Company to perform an impairment analysis of the goodwill associated with its former Protection reporting unit as of December 31, 2023. As a result of the 2025 Segment Realignment, the former Protection reporting unit is split among the Healthcare, Aramids and Shelter reporting units within the IndustrialsCo segment. As a result of the analysis performed, the Company concluded that the carrying amount of the former Protection reporting unit exceeded its fair value resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $804 million, which was recorded within “Goodwill impairment charge” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2023.
