As the Company identifies properties (“reporting units”) that no longer meet its investment criteria, it will evaluate the property for potential sale. A decision to sell a reporting unit results in the need to evaluate its goodwill for recoverability and may result in impairment. Additionally, other changes impacting a reporting unit may be considered a triggering event. If events occur that trigger an impairment evaluation at multiple reporting units, a goodwill impairment may be significant.

During 2020, the Company recognized $132.2 million of Goodwill impairment following the market disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was considered a triggering event requiring evaluation of reporting unit fair values for Goodwill impairment. Of the 269 reporting units with Goodwill, 87 were determined to have fair values lower than carrying value, resulting in $132.2 million of Goodwill impairment.
