See Note 5, Business Acquisitions for further details related to the Company’s acquisitions and purchase price allocation adjustments.

The Company’s goodwill balance consists of five reporting units. The majority of the goodwill relates to the acquisition of the Enterprise Business of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Enterprise”). The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2019 utilizing a quantitative approach. The estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by at least 55%. There is risk of future impairment to the extent that an individual reporting unit’s performance does not meet projections. Additionally, if our current assumptions and estimates, including projected revenues and income growth rates, terminal growth rates, competitive and consumer trends, market-based discount rates, and other market factors, are not met, or if other valuation factors outside of our control change unfavorably, the estimated fair value of our reporting units could be adversely affected, leading to a potential impairment in the future.

No events occurred during the fiscal years ended 2019, 2018, or 2017 that indicated it was more likely than not that our goodwill was impaired.
