Schedule of Goodwill Impairment Tests

We performed the following interim and annual (October 31) goodwill impairment tests. The results are summarized below:



Reporting Unit	Impairment Test Date	Fair value substantially in excess of carrying value	Percentage, if not substantially in excess	Impairment charge (in thousands)
Personal Information Services (1)	October 31, 2017	Yes	N/A	N/A
Insurance and Other Consumer Services (1)	October 31, 2017	Yes	N/A	N/A
Personal Information Services	October 31, 2016	Yes	N/A	N/A
Insurance and Other Consumer Services (2)	August 31, 2016	Yes	N/A	N/A

(1)

As of October 31, 2017, both our Personal Information Services and Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting units had a negative carrying amount of net assets. Upon the adoption of ASU 2017-04, we are no longer required to perform a qualitative assessment for reporting units with negative carrying amounts to determine if additional impairment testing is required. For additional information, please see Note 3. We considered other qualitative and quantitative factors and determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value was substantially in excess of the negative carrying value for each of our reporting units.

(2)

As of October 31, 2016, our annual testing date, we determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value was substantially in excess of its carrying value based upon qualitative factors and the results of our interim impairment test. We tested for impairment as of August 31, 2016 due to the reclassification of our Habits at Work business from our Insurance and Other Consumer Services segment to our Personal Information Services segment. Therefore, it was not necessary to perform the first step of the impairment testing for the Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting unit at October 31, 2016.
