Goodwill Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Our annual impairment assessment of our two reporting units is performed as of the fourth quarter of each year, and an assessment is performed at other times if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, states that an entity should perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.
As of September 30, 2026, there were no indicators of impairment, and no impairment losses were recorded for goodwill during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. As of September 30, 2026, the cumulative balance of goodwill impairments recorded was $3,775, of which $2,819 was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 and is included in the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to our SiriusXM reporting unit and $956 was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2020 and is included in the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to our Pandora and Off-platform reporting unit.
As of each of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of goodwill for our SiriusXM and Pandora and Off-platform reporting units was $11,431 and $959, respectively.
