Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]  
Impairment Impairment
The Company recognized a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $114.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. This consisted of the following:

(in thousands) 2021
Goodwill $ 106,476 
Definite-lived intangible assets 7,706 
Long-lived assets 615 
Total non-cash impairment charge $ 114,797 

Based on the results of our annual goodwill impairment test, we determined it was more likely than not that goodwill was impaired at the BurgerFi reporting unit. Accordingly, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of approximately $106.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The majority of the goodwill impairment was driven by the impact on the Company's market capitalization due to the decrease in stock price, coupled with significant declines to the equity values of our peers.

Based on our review at the end of each reporting period of definite-lived intangible assets, we performed impairment testing for the related asset group for which there are independently identifiable cash flows. Based on our impairment testing at December 31, 2021, we determined that it was more likely than not that our definite-lived intangible assets related to the Company's licensing agreements were impaired at the BurgerFi reporting unit, and accordingly, the Company recorded impairment charges of approximately $7.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The impairment amount was primarily the result of lower cash flow estimates associated with the licensing agreements as well as a change in estimate of the related useful life.

Based on our review at the end of each reporting period of long-lived assets, we performed impairment testing for the related asset group for which there are independently identifiable cash flows. Based on our impairment testing, we determined it was more likely than not that certain long-lived assets relating to our property and equipment at certain corporate-owned restaurants were impaired at the BurgerFi reporting unit, and accordingly, the Company recorded impairment charges of approximately $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

As it relates to determining the fair values of the assets we performed impairment testing for, refer to Note 14 Fair Value Measurements.
