Goodwill And Intangible Assets

9.	GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company adopted ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to initial recognition. The provisions of this statement discontinued the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives but require an impairment review at least annually and more frequently if certain impairment indicators are evident.

Core deposit intangible assets are being amortized over the period of expected benefit, which ranges from 4 to 14 years. In connection with the First Market Bank acquisition in 2010, the Company recorded $26.4 million of core deposit intangible, $1.2 million of trademark intangible and $1.1 million in goodwill. None of the goodwill recognized will be deductible for income tax purposes. The core deposit intangible on that acquisition is being amortized over an average of 4.3 years using an accelerated method and the trademark intangible is being amortized over three years using the straight-line method.

In the recent acquisition of the Harrisonburg branch, the Company recorded $1.8 million in goodwill and $9,500 of core deposit intangible. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

Based on the annual testing during the second quarter of each year and the absence of impairment indicators during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company has recorded no impairment charges to date for goodwill or intangible assets.

Information concerning goodwill and intangible assets is presented in the following table (in thousands):

The Harrisonburg branch core deposit intangible of $9,500 was expensed in the second quarter of 2011.
