We recorded as goodwill the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as part of the acquisition of the assets primarily used or held for use of Epic Research Education Services, LLC, which did business as Nitro College (“Nitro”), in the first quarter of 2022, and the acquisition of the key assets of Scholly Inc. (“Scholly”) in the third quarter of 2023. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested periodically for impairment. We test goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the year, or more frequently if we believe that indicators of impairment exist. At both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $56 million in total goodwill. See Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies — Business Combinations” in our 2025 Form 10-K for additional details on our acquisitions of Nitro and Scholly.
