    The change in our goodwill balance is as follows:
Total
Gross balance at March 31, 2024$6,768.5 
Accumulated impairment at March 31, 2024(2,342.1)
Net balance at March 31, 20244,426.4 
Gearbox Acquisition208.4 
Divestitures(15.8)
Currency translation adjustment(16.4)
Balance at December 31, 2024$4,602.6 
During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $165.4, representing a partial impairment related to one of our reporting units. We identified various qualitative factors that, collectively, indicated that the fair value of one of our reporting units was more likely than not less than its carrying amount, including a reduction in the forecasted performance of the reporting unit due to industry conditions and changes in our strategies for games within the reporting unit in response to those conditions. As a result of this qualitative analysis, we performed a valuation of the reporting unit using discounted cash flow and guideline public company methodologies. Key assumptions and estimates used in deriving the fair value are forecasted revenue, EBITDA margins, long-term decay rate, and discount rate.
Indefinite-lived intangibles
Other intangibles, net, as of December 31, 2024, included in-process research and development ("IPR&D") assets of $36.0 acquired as part of the Gearbox acquisition (refer to Note 13 - Acquisitions), which are indefinite-lived intangibles and therefore not subject to amortization until the related games are released or development is abandoned.
Definite-lived intangibles

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded impairment charges of $53.4 and $273.1, respectively, for acquisition-related Developed Game Technology intangible assets within Cost of revenue as a result of a reduction in the forecasted performance of certain games due to industry conditions and changes in our strategies for certain games in response to those conditions. The fair value of those intangible assets was measured using the multi-period excess earnings method, consistent with the approach used at acquisition. Key assumptions and estimates used in deriving the fair value are forecasted revenue, EBITDA margins, long-term decay rate, and discount rate.
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024, we divested $6.8, net of Advertising Technology assets, $15.3, net of Customer Relationships assets, and $4.1, net of Branding and Trade Names assets.
Estimated future amortization of intangible assets that will be recorded in Cost of revenue and operating expenses are as follows:
