The Company assesses recoverability of goodwill on an annual basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable, such as a decline in stock price and market capitalization. Throughout the second half of 2019 and through the first quarter of 2020, the Company’s stock price experienced high volatility, causing a decline in its enterprise market capitalization. During the first quarter of 2020, as a result of the recent global economic disruption and uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic, along with the Company’s announcement that it had entered into a short-term agreement to extend its partnership with USAA Federal Savings Bank to continue to power the USAA Car Buying Service through September 30, 2020, the Company concluded a triggering event had occurred. In light of these two factors, the Company performed an interim quantitative impairment test as of March 31, 2020, in which the Company estimated the fair value of its single reporting unit by utilizing an income approach which uses a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis. The Company has previously used an implied market value approach. Given the current high degree of market volatility and lack of reliable market data as of March 31, 2020, the Company determined that a discounted cash flow model (income approach) provided the best approximation of fair value. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant assumptions and judgments, which are considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy, including the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates and the discount rate. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company concluded that the carrying value of its reporting unit is greater than the fair value and, accordingly, recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $10.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. If the pandemic’s economic impact is more severe, or if the economic recovery takes longer to materialize or does not materialize as strongly as anticipated, this could result in further goodwill impairment charges.
