4. Business Combinations, Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Business Combinations. On March 31, 2021, we acquired Alcoa Warrick LLC and certain assets comprising the aluminum casting and rolling mill facility located in Warrick County, Indiana (collectively, “Warrick”) for a final purchase consideration of $609.2 million. Warrick is a leading producer of bare and coated aluminum coil used for can stock applications in the beverage and

food packaging industry in North America. The transaction provided us with non-cyclical end market diversification and re-entry into the packaging end market.

Goodwill. In conjunction with our acquisition of Warrick, we added $20.5 million of goodwill after allocating the consideration paid, net of cash received to all other identifiable assets. The goodwill reflected the value we expected from our re-entry into the Packaging end market and our assembled workforce. In conjunction with our annual testing and due to downward revisions in forecasted operating margins as a result of supply chain challenges, inflationary cost pressures and manufacturing inefficiencies, we determined that the carrying value of Warrick exceeded its fair value, and we recognized an impairment charge of $20.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 within Operating income in the Statements of Consolidated (Loss) Income. We estimated the fair value of Warrick using a combination of an income approach and a market-based approach. The income approach incorporated the use of cash flow projections and a discount rate that is developed using market participant-based assumptions. The cash flow projections are based on our best estimates of the long-term forecasts of the business, market prices, projected cash flows and the rate used in the discounting of those cash flows. As goodwill is deductible for tax purposes, the deferred tax effects were included in the impairment charge and income tax provision. The following table presents the changes in the carrying value of our goodwill (in millions of dollars):

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we impaired the remaining book value of our favorable commodity contracts intangible asset as the supplier associated with the intangible asset ceased all deliveries of magnesium to us and provided no indication of when or if deliveries would resume over the remainder of the contract. The impairment charge of $3.1 million was included within Other operating charges (income), net, in our Statements of Consolidated (Loss) Income. We identified no indicators of impairment associated with our intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

Amortization expense relating to definite-lived intangible assets was $9.3 million, $9.0 million and $2.9 million for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
