+Added: is reviewed for impairment using either a qualitative assessment or a quantitative one-step process.
+Added: If we perform a qualitative assessment
+Added: and determine that the fair value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds the carrying value, no further evaluation is necessary.
+Added: For reporting units where we perform the quantitative test, we are required to compare the fair value of each reporting unit, which we
+Added: primarily determine using an income approach based on the present value of discounted cash flows, to the respective carrying value, which
+Added: includes goodwill.
+Added: If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, the goodwill is not considered impaired.
+Added: carrying value is higher than the fair value, we recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the
+Added: reporting unit’s estimated fair value.
+Added: of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities
+Added: to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit.
+Added: of the qualitative goodwill assessment requires judgment in identifying and considering the significance of relevant key factors, events

+Added: Such events and circumstances that we have considered
+Added: include macroeconomic conditions, industry specific and market considerations, and reporting unit-specific factors such as overall actual
+Added: and projected financial performance, among other factors.
+Added: We also considered the results from the most recent date that a fair value
+Added: measurement was performed as a part of a quantitative goodwill assessment and specifically the cushion between each reporting unit’s

+Added: indicate that these assets are not recoverable.
+Added: If the asset group fails the recoverability test, an impairment loss is measured as the
+Added: amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value.
+Added: The fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow
+Added: approach where projections of future cash flows generated by those assets are discounted using an estimated discount rate.
+Added: judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of future cash flows and the relative risk of achieving those cash flows.
+Added: make judgments about the remaining useful lives of intangible assets and other long-lived assets that have finite lives.
+Added: While we believe
+Added: our estimates of future operating results and projected cash flows are reasonable, any significant adverse changes in key assumptions
+Added: (i.e., adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset or asset group is being used or expectation that, more likely than not,
+Added: an asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of before the end of its useful life) or adverse changes in economic and market
+Added: conditions may cause a change in our evaluation of recoverability or our estimation of fair value and could result in an impairment charge
+Added: that could be material to our financial statements.
+Added: Any impairment loss shall be allocated to the long-lived assets of the group on a
+Added: pro rata basis using the relative carrying amounts of those assets, except that the loss allocated to an individual long-lived asset
+Added: of the group shall not reduce the carrying amount of that asset below its fair value.
+Added: determined that there were no new indicators of impairment for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the Company concluded that
+Added: there was no impairment of the Company’s intangible and long-lived assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

+Added: based on the nature of the underlying software.
+Added: direct costs incurred to develop new internal-use software, as well as certain software enhancements that provide new functionality,

+Added: incurred in developing external-use software are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, after which
+Added: costs are capitalized up to the date the software is available for general release to customers.
+Added: Technological feasibility is established
+Added: upon completion of a detailed program design or, in its absence, upon completion of a working model.
+Added: Company must apply judgement in determining the amount of software development costs that should be capitalized.
+Added: Specifically, we must

+Added: principally through revenue from our customers, which is subject to uncertainties.
+Added: the software is substantially complete or available for general release, capitalized internal-use and external-use software costs are
+Added: amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful life of the software, which ranges from two to five years.
+Added: is judgement involved in estimating the useful life of developed software and the two-to-five-year period was determined based on factors
+Added: such as the continuous development in the technology, obsolescence, and anticipated life of the service offering before significant upgrades.
+Added: Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on a recurring basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
+Added: occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
