We evaluate the carrying amount of goodwill in our consolidated balance sheets for possible impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter using a fair value approach. We did not record any impairment charges for goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, or 2023.

We recognized impairments of indefinite-lived intangibles of $3.3 million in 2025, $31.1 million in 2024, and no impairments in 2023. The $3.3 million impairment in 2025 was attributable to investment advisory agreements while the $31.1 million impairment in 2024 was attributable to the trade name. The impairments in 2025 and 2024 were the result of reduced growth expectations for both management and incentive fees.
