Goodwill acquired in 2021 was the result of the Corporation's acquisition of residential building products companies. The decrease in workplace furnishings goodwill in 2021 was the result of the finalization of the acquisition accounting for DPG. See "Note 4. Acquisitions" for additional information.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Corporation recorded a pretax goodwill impairment charge of $5.8 million in connection with the decision to exit the Maxon office furniture brand. This action is consistent with the Corporation's broader business simplification efforts in the workplace furnishings segment. The Maxon reporting unit has no remaining goodwill.

Impairment Analysis
The Corporation evaluates its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. The Corporation also evaluates long-lived assets (which include definite-lived intangible assets) for impairment if indicators exist.

The Corporation elected to perform a qualitative assessment for purposes of its annual goodwill impairment testing in 2021. Based on this assessment, management concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit was greater than its carrying value. Therefore, no further quantitative testing was performed. Near the end of the fourth quarter, subsequent to the annual impairment testing, a triggering event occurred that was specific to the Maxon reporting unit, and which resulted in the impairment charge discussed herein.
The Corporation also elected to perform a qualitative assessment for purposes of its annual impairment testing for certain indefinite-lived intangible assets in 2021. Based on this assessment, management concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the respective assets was greater than carrying value. Quantitative impairment testing was performed for the remaining indefinite-lived intangible assets, with no impairments identified. Additionally, there were no impairments identified with respect to long-lived assets in 2021.
