| GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET | GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET A summary of changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by operating segment for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows (in thousands):
(1)During the year ended December 31, 2025, we finalized the purchase price allocations related to the Transaction and EIIA acquisition, and recorded $3.5 million in net adjustments to goodwill. Refer to Note 2, Business Combinations, for further discussion. As discussed in Note 1, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Polices, during the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed certain organizational reporting changes which resulted in a realignment of the reporting units in both the Financial Services and Benefits and Insurance Services practice groups into new reporting units to align with the internal reporting structure and the services provided by the practice groups. As a result of the changes in reporting units, we performed a qualitative assessment immediately before the change in reporting units. We concluded that it was more likely than not the fair values of each of our reporting units immediately before the change exceeded their respective carrying values and, therefore, goodwill related to those reporting units was determined not to be impaired. The change in reporting units resulted in a triggering event. We performed a quantitative assessment immediately after the change in reporting units by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. In measuring the estimated fair value of each reporting unit, we utilized a combination of an income approach and a market approach. Under the income approach, a discounted cash flow analysis is performed with assumptions and estimates of forecasted operating cash flows, including revenue growth rates, profitability margins, and discount rates, which all vary among reporting units. The market approach utilizes the guideline public company method and is based on revenue and earnings multiple data derived from publicly traded peer group companies. Based on the results of the quantitative assessment, we concluded that the estimated fair values of our reporting units immediately after the change exceeded their respective carrying values and, therefore, goodwill is not impaired. We re-allocated goodwill to each of the new reporting units based on its relative fair value as of the annual test date. The components of goodwill and other intangible assets, net at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows (in thousands):
