Represents the impact of foreign currency translation for instances when goodwill is recorded in foreign entities whose functional currency is also their local currency. Goodwill balances are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at period end. Adjustments related to foreign currency translation are included in other comprehensive income.

We conducted our annual goodwill impairment test as of July 31, 2014, and we determined that goodwill was not impaired as of the test date. From July 31, 2014 through the date of this report, no events have occurred that we believe may have impaired goodwill.

We amortized identifiable intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated lives ranging from one to seven years and include the cumulative effects of foreign currency exchange rates. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, identifiable intangibles were as follows (in thousands):


	June 30, 2015						December 31, 2014
		Gross Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount		Gross Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount	Weighted-Average Amortization Period
Purchased software	$	439	$	92	$	347	$	439	$	64	$	375	4.6 yrs
Trademarks and tradenames		63		21		42		63		15		48	3.8 yrs
Customer relationships		216		45		171		216		31		185	4.6 yrs
	$	718	$	158	$	560	$	718	$	110	$	608	4.54 yrs

Amortization expense of identifiable intangible assets was $23,000 and $24,000 for the three months and $47,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Expected future amortization expense related to identifiable intangibles based on our carrying amount as of June 30, 2015 was as follows (in thousands):


Twelve months ending June 30,
2016	$	94
2017		94
2018		94
2019		86
2020		82
