During the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test both before and after we amended our organizational structure. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, we performed our annual goodwill impairment test. We concluded no impairment charges were necessary as a result of either test.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test both before and after we amended our organizational structure. Our interim quantitative goodwill impairment test concluded that the carrying value of one reporting unit exceeded its fair value. As a result, a non-cash impairment charge of $186 million was recognized during the year ended September 29, 2023.
Accumulated goodwill impairment was $294 million as of both October 3, 2025 and September 27, 2024.
