Goodwill Impairment

The Company reviews goodwill for potential impairment on at least an annual basis or more often if events so require. The Company performed its annual fair value impairment testing for fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 on May 1, 2026 (Successor) and May 4, 2025 (Predecessor), respectively.

Based on the results of the annual goodwill impairment test performed for the Company’s Behavioral and Clinical reporting units, which held 81.0% and 19.0% of the Company’s goodwill as of May 1, 2026 (Successor), respectively, the Company concluded that no goodwill impairment existed as of May 1, 2026 (Successor). However, the Company identified its Behavioral reporting unit as being at risk for impairment, as the estimated fair value of this reporting unit exceeded its respective carrying value by less than 10% as of May 1, 2026 (Successor).

The Company also conducted an interim goodwill impairment test for its Behavioral and Clinical reporting units during the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor) because various qualitative and quantitative factors collectively indicated a triggering event had occurred. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company concluded that no goodwill impairment existed as of March 31, 2026 (Successor).

In performing the annual goodwill impairment test as of May 4, 2025 (Predecessor), the Company determined that the carrying values of its goodwill reporting units did not exceed their respective fair values and, therefore, no impairment existed.

The Company also conducted an interim goodwill impairment test for its Behavioral and Clinical reporting units during the three months ended March 29, 2025 (Predecessor) because various qualitative and quantitative factors collectively indicated a triggering event had occurred. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company concluded that no goodwill impairment existed as of March 29, 2025 (Predecessor).

Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Impairment

The Company reviews other indefinite-lived intangible assets for potential impairment on at least an annual basis or more often if events so require. As discussed above, the Company performed its annual fair value impairment testing for fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 on May 1, 2026 (Successor) and May 4, 2025 (Predecessor), respectively.

Based on the results of the annual impairment test performed for the Company’s trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset, the Company concluded that no impairment existed as of May 1, 2026 (Successor). However, the Company identified its trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset as being at risk for impairment, as the estimated fair value of this asset exceeded its respective carrying value by less than 10% as of May 1, 2026 (Successor).

As discussed above, based on the triggering event indicated during the three months ended March 31, 2026 (Successor), the Company performed an interim impairment test for its trade name indefinite-lived intangible asset. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company concluded that no impairment existed as of March 31, 2026 (Successor).

In performing the annual impairment test as of May 4, 2025 (Predecessor) for the Company’s franchise rights acquired indefinite-lived intangible asset, the Company determined that the carrying value did not exceed its respective fair value and, therefore, no impairment existed.

As discussed above, based on the triggering event indicated during the three months ended March 29, 2025 (Predecessor), the Company performed an interim impairment test for its franchise rights acquired indefinite-lived intangible asset. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company determined that the carrying value of its United States indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired unit of account, which held 100.0% of the Company’s indefinite-lived franchise rights acquired at the March 29, 2025 (Predecessor) balance sheet date, exceeded its fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge for its United States unit of account of $27,549 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 (Predecessor). The impairment charge recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 (Predecessor) was driven primarily by the weighted average cost of capital used in the interim impairment tests, reflecting market factors, including higher interest rates and the trading values of the Company’s equity and debt, and, to a lesser extent, business performance in the Behavioral business.
