(3) In the second quarter of 2022, the Company transferred operational responsibility of its Films business from its Industrial Solutions business within its Industrial & Specialty segment to its Electronics segment. Goodwill was reallocated using a relative fair value approach and assessed for impairment both before and after the allocation. See Note 1, Background and Basis of Presentation, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
(4) In the first quarter of 2023, the Company transferred operational responsibility of its Films business from its Graphics Solutions business within its Industrial & Specialty segment to its Electronics segment. Goodwill was reallocated using a relative fair value approach and assessed for impairment both before and after the allocation. See Note 1, Background and Basis of Presentation, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level in the fourth quarter of each year or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. During the third quarter of 2023, given the lower-than-expected results of the Graphics Solutions reporting unit, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of this reporting unit was less than its carrying value. As a result, the Company conducted an interim goodwill impairment test which confirmed that goodwill was impaired and the Company recorded an $80.0 million impairment charge in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations to reduce the carrying value of this reporting unit to its estimated fair value. This impairment charge was primarily driven by the reduction of the expected long-term cash flows for the business due to profit margin pressures from raw material inflation across the packaging supply chain, the recent loss of a significant newspaper customer, and a higher WACC as compared to the assumptions used for the 2022 annual goodwill impairment test.
After recording the impairment, the carrying value of the Graphics Solutions reporting unit was equal to its estimated fair value and there have been no events or changes in circumstances that indicated that goodwill was further impaired. As of December 31, 2023, the goodwill assigned to the Graphics Solutions reporting unit was approximately $130 million. No impairments of goodwill were recognized for any of the Company's other reporting units during the year ended December 31, 2023 and no impairments of goodwill were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
