−Removed: • Asset impairment - As further described below, we recorded a $ 78 million and $ 23 million intangible asset impairment, during the first and third quarters of 2022, respectively, in Asia, Middle East and Africa ("AMEA") due to lower than expected growth and profitability of two local biscuit brands sold in select markets in AMEA and Europe.
−Removed: During the third quarter of 2022, we performed our annual impairment assessment test for goodwill and indefinite-life intangible assets as of July 1, 2022.
−Removed: Our 2022 annual testing of goodwill resulted in no impairments as each reporting unit had sufficient fair value in excess of its carrying value.
−Removed: As part of our goodwill quantitative annual impairment testing, we compare a reporting unit's estimated fair value with its carrying value.
−Removed: If the carrying value of a reporting unit's net assets exceeds its fair value, we would record an impairment based on the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the reporting unit.
−Removed: We estimate a reporting unit's fair value using a discounted cash flow method that incorporates planned growth rates, market-based discount rates and estimates of residual value.
−Removed: This year, for our Europe and North America reporting units, we used a market based, weighted-average cost of capital of 6.8 % to discount the projected cash flows of those operations.
−Removed: For our Latin America and AMEA reporting units, we used a risk-rated discount rate of 9.8 %.
−Removed: Estimating the fair value of individual reporting units requires us to make assumptions and estimates regarding our future plans and industry and economic conditions based on available information.
−Removed: Given the uncertainty of the global economic environment, those estimates could be significantly different than future performance.
−Removed: While all reporting units passed our annual impairment testing, if planned business performance expectations are not met or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly, then the estimated fair values of a reporting unit or reporting units might decline and lead to a goodwill impairment in the future.
−Removed: During our 2022 annual testing of indefinite-life intangible assets, we recorded a $ 23 million impairment charge in the third quarter of 2022 related to one brand.
−Removed: The impairment arose due to lower than expected growth and profitability in a local biscuit brand in AMEA.
−Removed: The impairment charge was calculated as the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the intangible assets on a global basis and were recorded within asset impairment and exit costs.
−Removed: During our annual testing, we use several accepted valuation methods, including relief from royalty, excess earnings and excess margin, that utilize estimates of future sales, earnings growth rates, royalty rates and discount rates in determining a brand's global fair value.
−Removed: We identified eight brands, including the one brand impaired during the third quarter of 2022, that each had a fair value in excess of book value of 10% or less.
−Removed: The aggregate book value of the eight brands was $ 1.4 billion as of September 30, 2022.
−Removed: We continue to monitor our brand performance, particularly in light of the significant global economic uncertainties and related impacts to our business.
−Removed: If a brand's earnings expectations, including the timing of the expected recovery from the war and pandemic, are not met or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly, then a brand or brands could become impaired in the future.
−Removed: During interim periods, we evaluate our goodwill and intangible asset impairment risk through an assessment of potential triggering events.
−Removed: During the first quarter of 2022, we determined a local biscuit brand in AMEA was impaired.
−Removed: We recorded a $ 78 million impairment charge for the brand within asset impairment and exit costs based on the excess carrying value over its estimated fair value.
+Added: Definite-life intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks, customer-related intangibles, process technology, licenses and non-compete agreements.
+Added: Amortization expense for intangible assets was $ 39 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $ 32 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
+Added: For the next five years, we currently estimate annual amortization expense of approximately $ 150 million in 2023-2025, approximately $ 95 million in 2026 and approximately $ 90 million in 2027 (reflecting March 31, 2023 exchange rates).
+Added: Impairment Assessment
+Added: We test our reporting units and brands for impairment annually as of July 1, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or brand is less than its carrying amount.During the first quarter of 2023, we evaluated our goodwill impairment and intangible asset impairment risk through an assessment of potential triggering events.
+Added: We considered qualitative and quantitative information in our assessment.
+Added: We concluded there were no impairment indicators.
+Added: During our 2022 annual indefinite-life intangible asset testing, we identified eight brands that each had a fair value in excess of book value of 10% or less.
+Added: The aggregate book value of the eight brands was $ 1.6 billion as of March 31, 2023.
+Added: We believe our current plans for each of these brands will allow them to not be impaired, but if the brand earnings expectations are not met or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly then a brand or brands could become impaired in the future.
+Added: Marketable Securities
+Added: On March 2, 2023, we sold approximately 30 million shares of Keurig Dr Pepper Inc.
+Added: "KDP"), which reduced our ownership interest by 2.1 %, from 5.3 % to 3.2 % of the total outstanding shares.
+Added: We received approximately $ 1.0 billion in proceeds and recorded a pre-tax gain of $ 493 million (or $ 366 million after tax) on this sale during the first quarter of 2023.
+Added: This reduction in ownership, to below 5 % of the outstanding shares of KDP, resulted in a change of accounting for our KDP investment, from equity method investment accounting to accounting for equity interests with readily determinable fair values ("marketable securities") as we no longer have significant influence over KDP.
+Added: These marketable securities are measured at fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1).
+Added: On March 2, 2023, the date we changed from equity method accounting to marketable securities accounting for this investment, we recorded unrealized gains for marketable securities of $ 755 million (or $ 562 million after tax).

+Added: We reported marketable securities of $ 1.6 billion as of March 31, 2023 in other current assets in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
