−Removed: Second Quarter 2026 Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Asset Impairment Testing
−Removed: During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, we identified triggering events requiring an interim goodwill impairment assessment of certain reporting units and certain other assets within those reporting units, including indefinite lived intangibles (brand names and trademarks), due to a sustained decline in market capitalization and stock price.
−Removed: As a result, during the second quarter we performed an interim quantitative impairment test over the Refrigerated & Frozen and Foodservice reporting units and the Birds Eye ® , Earth Balance ® , and Smart Balance ® brand names.
−Removed: No triggering events requiring further impairment assessments of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles were identified during the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
−Removed: The fair value of our reporting units is typically estimated using a discounted cash flow method and, in certain circumstances, we also use a guideline public company method.
−Removed: The fair value of our indefinite lived intangibles is determined using the “relief from royalty” methodology.
−Removed: Both the “relief from royalty” methodology and the discounted cash flow method require us to estimate the future cash flows as well as to select a risk-adjusted discount rate to measure the present value of the anticipated cash flows.
−Removed: The guideline public company method is based on our actual and estimated EBITDA and considers public companies that are comparable to our reporting units.
−Removed: When determining future cash flow estimates, we consider historical results, adjusted to reflect current and anticipated operating conditions.
−Removed: Under our discounted cash flow method, we estimate cash flows for a reporting unit over a discrete period (typically five years) and a terminal period (considering expected long-term growth rates and trends).
−Removed: Estimating the fair value of individual reporting units and our indefinite-lived intangible assets requires us to make assumptions and estimates in areas such as future economic conditions, industry-specific conditions, product pricing, and necessary capital expenditures.
−Removed: The use of different assumptions or estimates for selected EBITDA multiples, future cash flows, discount rates, royalty rates, or terminal growth rates could produce substantially different estimates of the fair value.
−Removed: We completed a quantitative impairment test for the Refrigerated & Frozen and Foodservice reporting units with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist using both a discounted cash flow method and a guideline public company method.
−Removed: As a result of our impairment tests, we recognized non-cash goodwill impairment charges of $ 771.3 million in the Refrigerated & Frozen reporting unit within Goodwill impairment charges.
−Removed: The goodwill impairment was primarily driven by a 150 -basis point increase in the discount rate reflecting heightened macroeconomic uncertainty and weakened consumer sentiment, lower market multiples in our industry as of our testing date, and a downward revision to our projected sales and profit margins for this specific reporting unit.
−Removed: After this impairment, the goodwill carrying amount of our Refrigerated & Frozen reporting unit is approximately $ 4.1 billion.
−Removed: In addition, we recognized impairment charges within Other intangible asset impairment charges of $ 180.0 million related to our Birds Eye ® brand name and $ 17.0 million related to our spreads businesses ( Earth Balance ® and Smart Balance ® ), both of which were primarily included in our Refrigerated and Frozen segment.
−Removed: The other intangible asset impairments were primarily driven by the increase in the discount rate.
−Removed: In addition, Birds Eye ® was negatively impacted by lower than expected profit margins which resulted in a reduction to our assumed royalty rate.
−Removed: The Refrigerated & Frozen reporting unit was written down to fair value, resulting in zero excess fair value over carrying amount, and, as a result, will have a heightened risk of future impairments if any assumptions, estimates, or market factors change in the future.
−Removed: All other reporting units had more than 20 % excess fair value over carrying amount.
+Added: Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
+Added: The Refrigerated & Frozen reporting unit and certain of our indefinite lived intangibles were written down to fair value as of the end of fiscal 2026, resulting in zero excess fair value over carrying amount, and, as a result, will have a heightened risk of future impairments if any assumptions, estimates, or market factors change in the future.
+Added: All other reporting units and indefinite lived intangibles had more than 20 % excess fair value over carrying amount as of our last quantitative assessment.
We will continue to monitor the impact of any significant changes in consumer purchasing behaviors, input cost inflation, and other macroeconomic conditions that could change certain assumptions and result in future impairments .
−Removed: 2025 Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Asset Impairment Testing
−Removed: During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we reorganized our reporting units in the Refrigerated & Frozen and Grocery & Snacks segments.

−Removed: The fair value of our indefinite-lived intangibles was determined using the “relief from royalty” methodology.
−Removed: As a result of our impairment tests, in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we recognized impairment charges within Other intangible asset impairment charges of $ 18.9 million in our Grocery & Snacks and Refrigerated & Frozen segments for certain brands that continued to have lower than expected sales and profit margins.
