Intangible Assets and Goodwill [Abstract]

Note 19. Intangible Assets and Goodwill

In accounting for goodwill and intangible assets, the Company conducts an impairment review at least annually and more frequently if certain impairment indicators are in evidence. Accounting guidance provides the option of performing preliminary assessment of qualitative factors before performing more substantial testing for impairment. If the preliminary assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that fair value is below carrying value, a two-step test is employed to determine impairment. The Company opted not to perform the preliminary assessment and employed the two-step test to determine impairment. Based on the testing for impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, there were no impairment charges for 2012, 2011 or 2010.

Information concerning goodwill and intangible assets for years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is presented in the following table:

	Gross Carrying Value		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Value
December 31, 2012
Amortizable core deposit intangibles	$	16,257	$	12,728	$	3,529
Unamortizable goodwill	$	5,848	$	---	$	5,848

December 31, 2011
Amortizable core deposit intangibles	$	16,257	$	11,645	$	4,612
Unamortizable goodwill	$	5,848	$	---	$	5,848

As of December 31, 2012, the estimated amortization expense of core deposit intangibles are as follows:

2013	$	1,075
2014		1,075
2015		999
2016		257
Thereafter		123
Total	$	3,529
