Due to the Separation of CSRA on November 27, 2015, as more fully described in Note 4, NPS is no longer included as a reportable segment. The fiscal 2016 additions to goodwill of $446 million were due to the GBS and GIS acquisitions described in Note 3. The foreign currency translation amount reflects the impact of currency movements on non-U.S. dollar-denominated goodwill balances.

Goodwill Impairment Analyses

As described in Note 1, the Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of the second fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. Following is a description of the goodwill impairment analyses for each of the fiscal years.

Fiscal 2016

For the Company’s annual goodwill impairment assessment as of July 4, 2015, the Company chose to bypass the initial qualitative assessment and proceeded directly to the first step of the impairment test for all reporting units. Based on the results of the first step of the impairment test, the Company concluded that the fair value of each reporting unit significantly exceeded its carrying value and therefore the second step of the goodwill impairment test was not required.

At the end of fiscal 2016, the Company assessed whether there were events or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below its carrying amount and require goodwill to be tested for impairment. The Company determined that there have been no such indicators and therefore, it was unnecessary to perform an interim goodwill impairment test as of April 1, 2016.

Fiscal 2015

As of the beginning of fiscal 2015, the Company reallocated goodwill among certain of its GBS reporting units due to 1) changes in the structure of segment management reporting; and 2) the availability of discrete financial information. Goodwill was reallocated using a relative fair value allocation approach. CSC performed a quantitative and qualitative goodwill impairment assessment for the reporting units and determined that there was no indication that goodwill was impaired for those reporting units as of the reallocation date.

For the Company’s annual goodwill impairment assessment as of July 5, 2014, the Company assessed qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances existed that would lead the Company to conclude that it was more likely than not that the fair value of any of its reporting units was below their carrying amounts. The Company determined that, based on its qualitative assessment of such factors for all reporting units, no reporting units met the more-likely-than-not threshold.

Accordingly, the Company did not perform further analysis.
