Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

Note 6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired or the excess of the fair value of the net liabilities assumed over the consideration received in a business combination. The carrying amount of goodwill was $855.5 million at both December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The Company completed its annual impairment test of goodwill as of September 30, 2024 by performing a qualitative (Step Zero) assessment. The qualitative assessment involved the examination of changes in macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, overall financial performance, cost factors and other relevant entity-specific events, including changes in management and other key personnel and changes in the share price of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the assessment, the Company concluded that its goodwill was not impaired.

No goodwill impairment charges were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022.

Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the periods benefited and are evaluated for impairment similar to other long-lived assets. The purchase and carrying values of intangible assets subject to amortization at December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
