The Company is validating account balances and finalizing the valuation for the acquisition.

The acquisition of this business was preliminarily recorded on the acquisition date as follows (in thousands):

Goodwill (not tax deductible)	$	6,550

The customer relationships intangible asset is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 15 years.

Goodwill

Goodwill by reportable segment was as follows:



(In thousands)	OEM Segment		Aftermarket Segment		Total
Net balance – December 31, 2016	$	74,663	$	14,535	$	89,198
Acquisitions – 2017	29,277		—		29,277
Other	4,519		7		4,526
Net balance – September 30, 2017	$	108,459	$	14,542	$	123,001

Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration given in an acquisition of a business over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested at the reporting unit level for impairment annually in November, or more frequently if certain circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist.

Changes in goodwill resulting from foreign currency translations and purchase accounting adjustments are presented as “Other” in the above table.
