GOODWILL, OTHER INTANGIBLES, AND OTHER ASSETS

 

On July 3, 2018, we acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Landair Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation ("Landair"). Landair is a dedicated and for-hire truckload carrier, as well as a supplier of transportation management, warehousing, and inventory management services. Landair's results have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The Company's only goodwill and other intangible assets are a result of the Landair acquisition. Landair's trucking operations' results are reported within our Dedicated reportable segment, while Landair's logistics operations' results are reported within our Managed Freight and Warehousing reportable segments.

 

As a result of management compensation structure changes and a change in the branding strategy of the organization, the Company revised the estimated remaining useful life of the Landair trade name to 15 months as of  June 30, 2020. At the end of its useful life, the Landair trade name will have a residual value of $0.5 million. The non-compete agreement with a former Landair executive was terminated during the second quarter of 2020. These changes resulted in additional amortization of $1.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2020, or a $1.0 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, decrease in net income. The remaining useful lives as adjusted are included in the summary of other intangible assets below.

The above finite-lived intangible assets have a weighted average remaining life of 105 months and 128 months as of  December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively as a result of the change in estimated useful life as discussed above. Amortization expense was $5.1 million, $2.9 million, and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The expected amortization expense of these assets for the next five years is as follows:

The Company conducted its annual impairment assessments and tests of goodwill for each reporting unit as of October 1, 2020. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is the Company's assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the reporting unit's carrying amount, including goodwill. When performing the qualitative assessment, the Company considers the impact of factors including, but not limited to, macroeconomic and industry conditions, overall financial performance of each reporting unit, litigation and new legislation. If based on the qualitative assessments, the Company believes it more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the reporting unit's carrying amount, or periodically as deemed appropriate by management, the Company will prepare an estimation of the respective reporting unit's fair value utilizing a quantitative approach.

 

If the estimation of fair value indicates that impairment potentially exists, the Company will then measure the amount of the impairment, if any. Goodwill impairment exists when the estimated implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. Changes in strategy or market conditions could significantly impact these fair value estimates and require adjustments to recorded asset balances.

 

Additionally, the Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized on assets classified as held and used when the sum of undiscounted estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset is less than the carrying value. If such measurement indicates a possible impairment, the estimated fair value of the asset is compared to its net book value to measure the impairment charge, if any.
