ISecG goodwill has been reclassified to assets held for sale on the consolidated condensed balance sheet. This reclassification of goodwill is presented within "Other" in the preceding table. For further information, see "Note 8: Acquisitions and Divestitures."
During the first quarter of 2016, we completed the acquisition of Altera and formed PSG. The goodwill recognized from this acquisition was allocated among PSG, DCG, and IOTG based on the relative fair value provided by the acquisition, which reflected the estimated synergistic value generated within DCG and IOTG by incorporating Altera's intellectual property into Intel's future process technology and products. For further information, see "Note 8: Acquisitions and Divestitures."
We previously disclosed the goodwill for ISecG and SSG as part of the aggregated software and services operating segments. During the first quarter of 2016, we elected to separately disclose the results of ISecG and determined SSG was no longer an operating segment; accordingly, its goodwill was re-allocated to other operating segments based on the relative fair value. Additionally, we formed the New Technology Group (NTG), which includes products designed for wearables, cameras, drones, and other market segments. The substantial majority of goodwill under "all other" is attributable to NTG, the remainder of which is unallocated from recent acquisitions in the first quarter of 2016. For further information, see "Note 23: Operating Segments Information."
