Goodwill and intangible assets

Note 5 - Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company performed the annual goodwill impairment assessment using a qualitative approach to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. In performing the qualitative assessment, the Company identifies and considers the significance of relevant key factors, events, and circumstances that affect the fair value of its goodwill. These factors include external factors such as macroeconomic, industry, and market conditions, as well as entity-specific factors, such as the Company’s actual and planned financial performance. If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill exceeds its carrying value, additional quantitative impairment testing is performed.

Based on the results of the impairment assessments of goodwill and other intangible assets performed in 2017, the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its goodwill significantly exceeds the carrying value and that there are no impairment indicators related to intangible assets.

At June 30, 2018 the Company had $47.8 million of goodwill, of which $46.9 million is attributable to the acquisition of ARI on October 10, 2017.
