ACQUISITIONS, GOODWILL, AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

ACQUISITIONS.

On February 17, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Caption Health, Inc. (“Caption Health”) for $127 million of upfront payment, $10 million future holdback payment and potential earn-out payments valued at $13 million based primarily on various milestones and sales targets. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $94 million, intangible assets of $60 million, and deferred tax liabilities of $3 million. Purchase price allocations are based on preliminary valuations. Our estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period. The goodwill associated with the acquired business is non-deductible for tax purposes and is reported in the Ultrasound segment. Caption Health is an artificial intelligence (“AI”) company whose technology expands access to AI-guided ultrasound screening for novice users.

See Note 12, “Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements” for further information about the fair value measurement of contingent consideration.

Goodwill
	Balance as of December 31, 2022		Acquisitions		Foreign exchange and other		Balance as of June 30, 2023
Imaging(a)	$	4,409	$	16	$	2	$	4,427
Ultrasound	3,835		94		1		3,930
PCS	2,036		—		2		2,038
PDx	2,533		—		1		2,534
Total Goodwill	$	12,813	$	110	$	6	$	12,929

(a) Includes the acquisition of IMACTIS SAS (“Imactis”) in the second quarter of 2023. Imactis is a French company that provides electromagnetic navigation solutions for image-guided procedures in computed tomography.

We assess the possibility that a reporting unit’s fair value has been reduced below its carrying amount due to the occurrence of events or circumstances between annual impairment testing dates. We did not identify any reporting units that required an interim impairment test since the last annual impairment testing date.

Substantially all other intangible assets are subject to amortization. Intangible assets decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of amortization, partially offset by acquisitions in our Imaging and Ultrasound segments. Amortization expense was $93 million and $101 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $189 million and $204 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
