Goodwill
The Company performed an annual qualitative goodwill assessment of the goodwill held related to the BlackSky reporting unit as of October 1, 2021. The Company determined that no triggering events occurred that would require the Company to quantitatively test goodwill for impairment during the year ended December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, the Company believes that the estimated fair values of the BlackSky reporting unit is still in excess of its respective carrying value and therefore is not at-risk of being impaired. To the extent this reporting unit realizes actual operating results in the future below forecasted results, or realize decreases in forecasted results as compared to previous forecasts or, in the event the estimated fair value of the reporting unit decreases (as a result, among other things, of changes in market capitalization, including further declines in the stock price), the Company may incur goodwill impairment charges in the future. Goodwill was as follows:
