As of December 31, 2022, Aqua Pennsylvania provided water or wastewater services to approximately one-half of the total number of Regulated Water customers we serve. Aqua Pennsylvania’s service territory is located in the suburban areas north and west of the City of Philadelphia and in </span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;">27</span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;"> other counties in Pennsylvania.

Additionally, commencing on March 16, 2020 with the completion of the Peoples Gas Acquisition, the Company began to provide natural gas distribution services to customers in western Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and West Virginia. Approximately </span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;">93</span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;">% of the total number of natural gas utility customers we serve are in western Pennsylvania. In December 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its regulated natural gas utility assets in West Virginia, which serve approximately 13,000 customers. This sale is conditioned on regulatory approval and is expected to close in mid-2023. The completion of this transaction will conclude our regulated utility operations in West Virginia</span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Garamond', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;">. </span><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;">Lastly, the Company’s market-based activities are conducted through Aqua Infrastructure LLC, and Aqua Resources, Inc., and certain other non-regulated subsidiaries of Peoples. Prior to our October 2020 sale of our investment in a joint venture, Aqua Infrastructure provided non-utility raw water supply services for firms in the natural gas drilling industry. Aqua Resources offers, through a third-party, water and sewer line protection solutions and repair services to households. Other non-regulated subsidiaries of Peoples provide utility service line protection services to households and operate gas marketing and production businesses. </span><p dir="ltr" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;line-height: 108%;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;margin-top: 0;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;"> </span></p>

These circumstances or events could include a decline in the market value or physical condition of a long-lived asset, an adverse change in the manner in which long-lived assets are used or planned to be used, a change in historical trends, operating cash flows associated with the long-lived assets, changes in macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, or overall financial performance. When these circumstances or events occur, the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of those assets is less than their carrying </span><p dir="ltr" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;line-height: 108%;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;margin-top: 0;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap; font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 11pt;font-style: normal;font-weight: normal;margin: 0;padding: 0;">amount. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not (that is, the likelihood of more than 50 percent), the Company would recognize an impairment charge if it is determined that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of the undiscounted estimated cash flows. In this circumstance, the Company would recognize an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the asset. Fair value is estimated to be the present value of future net cash flows associated with the asset, discounted using a discount rate commensurate with the risk and remaining life of the asset. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded an impairment loss to write down a portion of the operating lease right-of-use asset for office space not used in operations to fair value.

The Company’s review determines whether there have been changes in circumstances or events, such as regulatory disallowances, or abandonments, that have occurred that require adjustments to the carrying value of these assets. Adjustments to the carrying value of these assets would be made in instances where their inclusion in the rate-making process is unlikely. For utility plant in service, we would recognize an impairment loss for any amount disallowed by the respective utility commission. </span>
