 as intended or function as expected. In addition, daily VaR and loss limits, which are primarily based on historic price movements and which we discuss in “Part II – Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” may not protect us from losses if prices significantly or persistently deviate from historic prices. As a result of these and other factors, our risk management procedures and systems may not prevent or mitigate losses that could materially adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects.

An impairment of our goodwill or long-lived assets could result in a material charge to earnings.

We test long-lived assets, including equity method investments, for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances have occurred that may affect the recoverability or the estimated useful lives of the assets. We test goodwill for impairment annually or when events or changes in circumstances necessitate a valuation. We could experience such an event or change in circumstances from, among other things, (i) an inability to operate our existing facilities, (ii) an inability to collect from customers, (iii) changes to laws or regulations or other circumstances affecting the energy sector or our assets in Mexico, (iv) adverse rulings in lawsuits, binding arbitrations, regulatory proceedings, audits and other proceedings materially impacting our businesses, including our equity method investments such as Oncor Holdings and Cameron LNG JV, and (v) more generally any loss of permits or approvals that requires us to adjust or cease certain operations and any failure to complete or receive an adequate return on our investments in capital projects. A material charge to earnings from an impairment loss could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects.

Market performance or changes in other assumptions could require unplanned contributions to pension and PBOP plans.

Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas provide defined benefit pension and PBOP plans to eligible employees and retirees. The cost of providing these benefits is affected by many factors, including the market value of plan assets and the other factors described in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Part II – Item 7. MD&A – Capital Resources and Liquidity.” A decline in the market value of plan assets or an adverse change in any of these other factors could cause a material increase in our funding obligations for these plans, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects.
