Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

The Company conducted its annual impairment test for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1, 2025. We identified two (2) goodwill reporting units and five (5) indefinite-lived intangible assets for trademarks and trade names. We performed a quantitative impairment assessment of each goodwill reporting unit and indefinite-lived intangible asset. Based on the results of our quantitative impairment assessment, and consideration of qualitative factors, as of our test date and December 31, 2025, no impairments were identified with respect to goodwill, and it was concluded that our trademarks and trade names were fully impaired as a result of the Company’s global rebranding initiative to consolidate all sub-brands under a singular, unified master brand – Ultralife, which launched during the fourth quarter of 2025.

 

The following table summarizes the goodwill activity by segment for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024:
