GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

3 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2014

NOTE 11 – GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

Goodwill as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 amounted to $28.1 million, recognized as part of “Other Assets” in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The Corporation conducted its annual evaluation of goodwill and intangibles during the fourth quarter of 2013.

The Corporation bypassed the qualitative assessment in 2013 and proceeded directly to perform the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. The Step 1 evaluation of goodwill allocated to the Florida reporting unit under both valuation approaches (market and discounted cash flow analysis) indicated that the fair value of the unit was above the carrying amount of its equity book value as of the valuation date (October 1); therefore, the completion of Step 2 was not required. Based on the analysis under both the market and discounted cash flow analysis, the estimated fair value of the equity of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying amount of the entity, including goodwill at the evaluation date. There have been no events related to the Florida reporting unit that could indicate potential goodwill impairment since the date of the last evaluation; therefore, no goodwill impairment evaluation was performed during the first nine months of 2014. Goodwill and other indefinite life intangibles are reviewed at least annually for impairment.

In connection with the acquisition of the FirstBank-branded credit card loan portfolio in the second quarter of 2012, the Corporation recognized a purchased credit card relationship intangible of $24.5 million, which is being amortized over 7.3 years on an accelerated basis based on the estimated attrition rate of the purchased credit card accounts, which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed. These benefits are consumed as the revenue stream generated by the cardholder relationship is realized.

The following table shows the gross amount and accumulated amortization of the Corporation’s intangible assets recognized as part of Other Assets in the consolidated statement of financial condition:

	As of		As of
	September 30,		December 31,
	2014		2013
(Dollars in thousands)
Core deposit intangible:
Gross amount	$	45,844	$	45,844
Accumulated amortization		(40,034)		(38,863)
Net carrying amount	$	5,810	$	6,981
Remaining amortization period		8.7 years		9.8 years
Purchased credit card relationship intangible:
Gross amount	$	24,465	$	24,465
Accumulated amortization		(7,230)		(4,678)
Net carrying amount	$	17,235	$	19,787

Remaining amortization period		7.3 years		8.0 years

For the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the amortization expense of core deposit intangibles amounted to $0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively (2013 - $0.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively). For the quarter and nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the amortization expense of the purchased credit card relationship intangible amounted to $0.8 million and $2.6 million, respectively (2013 - $0.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively).
