(1) On June 22, 2026, we acquired DeSpir Logistics, a specialized provider of secure transportation solutions and cargo escort services for mission-critical, high-value freight across North America. Refer to Note 15, Acquisitions, for further discussion related to the acquisition of DeSpir Logistics.
Goodwill is tested annually for impairment on November 30, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. We first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units is less than their respective carrying value (“Step Zero Analysis”). If the Step Zero Analysis indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units is less than their respective carrying value, an additional impairment assessment is performed (“Step One Analysis”). As part of our 2025 annual impairment test, we determined that the fair value of our reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values and our goodwill balance was not impaired.
There were no changes in circumstances or events identified in the second quarter of 2026 that would indicate an interim impairment analysis was required for any of our remaining reporting units as of June 30, 2026.
