7. Other Assets

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill originated from the acquisition of BancWest by BNPP in December 2001. Goodwill generated in that acquisition was recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a result of push‑down accounting treatment.

 

The Company performs impairment testing of goodwill, an infinite‑lived intangible asset, as required under ASC 350 on an annual basis or when circumstances change that indicate that a potential impairment may have occurred. Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level, equivalent to one level below a business segment. The Company has two reporting units that were assigned goodwill: Retail Banking and Commercial Banking. No impairment of goodwill was noted for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. The Company’s estimates of fair value of the reporting units were based upon factors such as projected future cash flows, discount rates and other assumptions that require significant judgment. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the Company in the future, actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

The carrying amount of goodwill reported in the Company’s reporting units as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:

Other Intangible Assets

 

Finite‑lived intangible assets consist of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”). Mortgage servicing activities include collecting principal, interest, tax, and insurance payments from borrowers while accounting for and remitting payments to investors, taxing authorities, and insurance companies. The Company also monitors delinquencies and administers foreclosure proceedings.

 

Mortgage loan servicing income is recorded in noninterest income as a part of other service charges and fees and amortization of the servicing assets is recorded in noninterest income as part of other income. The unpaid principal amount of consumer loans serviced for others was $2.7 billion and $3.2 billion for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Servicing fees include contractually specified fees, late charges, and ancillary fees, and were $7.7 million, $8.7 million and $7.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Amortization of MSRs was $4.7 million, $5.5 million and $3.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The estimated future amortization expense for MSRs over the next five years is as follows:

MSRs are evaluated for impairment if events and circumstances indicate a possible impairment. No impairment of MSRs was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Other

 

The Company had $12.9 million and $16.0 million in affordable housing and other tax credit investment partnership interest as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The amount of amortization of such investments reported in the provision for income taxes was $3.5 million, $3.3 million and $3.1 million of tax credits during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Nonmarketable equity securities include FHLB stock, which the Company holds to meet regulatory requirements. As a member of the FHLB system, the Company is required to maintain a minimum level of investment in FHLB non‑publicly traded stock based on specific percentages of the Company’s total assets and outstanding advances in accordance with the FHLB’s capital plan which may be amended or revised periodically. Amounts in excess of the required minimum may be transferred at par to another member institution subject to prior approval of the FHLB. Excess stock may also be sold to the FHLB subject to a 5‑year redemption notice period and at the sole discretion of the FHLB. These securities are accounted for under the cost method. These investments are considered long‑term investments by management and accordingly, the ultimate recoverability of its par value is considered rather than considering temporary declines in value. The investment in FHLB stock at both December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $10.1 million and was included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
