Total acquired intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $53,790, of which $9,457 was assigned to goodwill. Although goodwill is not amortized for financial statement purposes, $9,457 is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. The remaining $44,333 of acquired intangible assets have a weighted average useful life of approximately 14 years. The intangible assets include customer lists and contracts of $7,216 (7 year weighted average useful life) and site locations of $36,982 (15 year weighted average useful life). The aggregate amortization expense related to the 2014 acquisitions for the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $1,452.
