¹ In the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company recognized an impairment charge of the full goodwill related to VNBS, resulting in an impairment loss of $234 million, which was included in earnings for the period. The primary driver of the goodwill impairment was due to the lower expected long-term operating cash flow performance of the business unit as of the measurement date. The remaining goodwill balance as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was not measured at fair value as impairment indicators did not exist.

² In the first quarter of 2017, the Company recognized an impairment charge to amortization of intangibles of $12 million related to a contract with an OEM customer of M/A-COM products, which was included in earnings for the period. As of December 31, 2017, the intangible value related to this customer contract was fully amortized. The remaining intangibles balance as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was not measured at fair value as impairment indicators did not exist.
