The most significant assumption used in determining the estimated fair value of STI Operations is the discount rate assumption. A 50-basis point increase in the discount rate would potentially result in an incremental goodwill impairment of $10 million as of December 31, 2024. Refer also to Note 7 - Goodwill, Long-Lived Assets, and Other Intangible Assets for further information.

Long-Lived Assets

When events, circumstances or operating results indicate that the carrying values of long-lived assets, including our finite lived intangible assets, might not be recoverable through future operations, the Company prepares projections of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated from the underlying asset group and the cash flows resulting from the asset groupings eventual disposition. If the projections indicate that the underlying asset grouping is not expected to be recoverable, the estimated fair value of the asset group is determined. An impairment loss is recognized based on the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its estimated fair value. The loss is allocated to the long-lived assets of the group on a pro-rata basis using the relative carrying amounts of those assets. The Company identified indicators of impairment associated with the STI Operations asset groups, and as a result, performed an undiscounted cash flow tests on the same dates that the reporting unit goodwill was tested for impairment. The sum of the undiscounted cash flows was less than the carrying balance for one of the STI operations assets groups as of the December 31, 2024 testing date.

As a result, with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist, management estimated the fair value of the asset group as of December 31, 2024, and recorded an impairment loss of $91.9 million, which was allocated to the long-lived assets of the group on a pro rata basis on the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset group and its carrying value. In determining the fair value of the asset group, the Company used a DCF analysis using the income approach with the resulting value compared to Guideline publicly traded companies (“GPC”) marketplace EBITDA multiples to corroborate the fair value of the reporting unit. The significant assumptions used in determining the fair value of the asset group are similar to the significant assumptions used in determining the fair value the Company’s reporting units.
