Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
During the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $87 million related to a trademark in Latin America. This impairment charge was derived using Level 3 inputs and was primarily driven by revised projections of future operating results and changes in macroeconomic conditions. This charge was recorded in the line item other operating charges in our consolidated statements of income. The remaining carrying value of the trademark is $125 million.
During the nine months ended September 27, 2024, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $760 million related to our BodyArmor trademark in North America, which was primarily driven by revised projections of future operating results and higher discount rates resulting from changes in macroeconomic conditions since the acquisition date. The fair value of this trademark was derived using discounted cash flow analyses based on Level 3 inputs. This charge was recorded in the line item other operating charges in our consolidated statement of income. The remaining carrying value of the trademark is $3,400 million. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 27, 2024, the Company recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $34 million related to an equity method investee in Latin America. This impairment charge was derived using Level 3 inputs and was primarily driven by revised projections of future operating results. This charge was recorded in the line item other income (loss) — net in our consolidated statement of income.
During the nine months ended September 29, 2023, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $25 million related to the discontinuation of certain manufacturing operations in Asia Pacific. This impairment charge was derived using Level 3 inputs and was primarily driven by management’s best estimate of the potential proceeds from the disposal of the related assets. This charge was recorded in the line item other operating charges in our consolidated statement of income.
Other Fair Value Disclosures
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and loans and notes payable approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on quoted prices for those instruments. Where quoted prices are not available, the fair value is estimated using discounted cash flows and market-based expectations for interest rates, credit risk and the contractual terms of the debt instruments. As of September 27, 2024, the carrying value and fair value of our long-term debt, including the current portion, were $44,061 million and $40,404 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the carrying value and fair value of our long-term debt, including the current portion, were $37,507 million and $33,445 million, respectively.
