Note 6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. All of the Company’s goodwill is in the Industrial segment. A summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill is shown below:


(in millions)	Total
Balance as of April 27, 2024	$	169.9
Foreign currency translation		0.5
Balance as of November 2, 2024	$	170.4

A summary of goodwill by reporting unit is as follows:


(in millions)	November 2, 2024		April 27, 2024
Grakon Industrial	$	124.2	$	124.4
Nordic Lights		44.5		43.9
Other		1.7		1.6
Total	$	170.4	$	169.9

The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis as of the beginning of the fourth quarter each fiscal year. In addition, the Company continuously monitors for events and circumstances that could negatively impact the key assumptions used in determining fair value and therefore require interim goodwill impairment testing, including long-term revenue growth projections, profitability, discount rates, volatility in the Company's market capitalization, and general industry, market and macroeconomic conditions. No impairment indicators were identified in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

October 28, 2023 goodwill impairment

During the three months ended October 28, 2023, the Company identified an impairment triggering event associated with a sustained decrease in the Company’s publicly quoted share price, market capitalization and lower than expected operating results. These factors suggested that the fair value of one or more of the Company’s reporting units may have fallen below their carrying amounts. As a result, the Company performed an interim quantitative impairment test and recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $56.5 million for two reporting units in its Automotive segment.
