Net (losses)/gains on sales of businesses – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amounts recognized were related to sales of businesses and the classification of certain assets and liabilities, consisting primarily of accounts receivable and accounts payable, as held for sale within our MD&E, IA&C, and SC&E reportable segments. The businesses sold and held for sale primarily represent unprofitable, non-strategic agencies which are expected to be sold within the next twelve months.
Other – During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the amounts recognized were primarily related to pension and postretirement costs. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the amounts recognized were primarily related to a cash gain from the sale of an equity investment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the amounts recognized were primarily attributable to factors noted for the third quarter of 2022, partially offset by a non-cash loss related to the deconsolidation of a previously consolidated entity in which we maintain an equity interest in the second quarter of 2022.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest [Table Text Block]
Redeemable Non-controlling Interests
Many of our acquisitions include provisions under which the non-controlling equity owners may require us to purchase additional interests in a subsidiary at their discretion. Redeemable non-controlling interests are adjusted quarterly, if necessary, to their estimated redemption value, but not less than their initial fair value. Any adjustments to the redemption value impact retained earnings or additional paid in capital, except for foreign currency translation adjustments.
The following table presents changes in our redeemable non-controlling interests.

Goodwill Disclosure
Goodwill is the excess purchase price remaining from an acquisition after an allocation of purchase price has been made to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values.
The Company transferred certain agencies between operating segments as of January 1, 2023 which resulted in certain changes to our reporting units and reportable segments. We have allocated goodwill to our reporting units using a relative fair value approach. In addition, we completed an assessment of any potential goodwill impairment for all impacted reporting units immediately prior and subsequent to the reallocation and determined that no impairment existed.
The following table sets forth details of changes in goodwill by reportable segment of the Company:
