Balance is net of $8,673 thousand in accumulated impairments that were recorded in segments that precede our current segment organization.

Goodwill represents the premium paid over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets that are individually identified and separately recognized in business combinations.


Our goodwill balance increased by $22.2 million over the nine months ended December 31, 2023, due to $22.1 million in goodwill additions from our acquisition of Network Solutions Group (“NSG”), and from foreign currency translations of $0.1 million. Please refer to Note 15, “Business Combinations” for details of our acquisition.


We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of our third fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. In our annual test as of October 1, 2023, we performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill and concluded that, more likely than not, the fair value of our product, professional services, and managed services reporting units continued to exceed their carrying value.


During the first quarter ended June 30, 2023, we separated our technology segment into three new segments: product, professional services, and managed services. We concluded that each segment was one reporting unit. At that time, we allocated our goodwill to the reporting units affected using a relative fair value approach. We concluded that the fair value of each new reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. Our conclusions would not be impacted by a ten percent change in our estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit.
