Goodwill Abstract  
Goodwill Goodwill
The Company records as goodwill the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Measurement period adjustments may be recorded once a final valuation has been performed. Goodwill is tested and reviewed annually for impairment during the fourth quarter or whenever there is a significant change in events or circumstances that indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount of the asset.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were as follows:
