During the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020, the Company experienced a sustained decrease in its stock price and determined that it was more likely than not that the carrying value of the Company's reporting units exceeded their fair value. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020, the Company made key changes to its executive management, which ultimately resulted in a change to the composition of its reportable segments and consequently a change from one to four reporting units – Headsets, Voice, Video, and Services. These changes resulted in an impairment charge of $483.7 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020.
