Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the cost of an acquisition in excess of the fair values assigned to identifiable net assets acquired. On September 27, 2013, the Company recorded Goodwill of $337.6 million as part of the HomeLink® acquisition. As of December 31, 2013, the Company adjusted recorded Goodwill to $307.4 million resulting from refinement of the purchase accounting estimates, based on updated valuations of tangible and intangible assets acquired as part of the HomeLink® acquisition. The Company finalized the purchase accounting estimates in the first quarter of 2014. The amount of Goodwill that is expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $307.4 million. The carrying value of Goodwill as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014 was $307.4 million. Intangible assets as of September 30, 2014 consist of the following:
Other Intangible Assets | Gross | Accumulated Amortization | Net | Assumed Useful Life
HomeLink®Trade Names and Trademarks | $ | 52,000,000 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 52,000,000 |  | Indefinite
HomeLink® Technology | 180,000,000 |  | (15,000,000 | ) | 165,000,000 |  | 12 years
Existing Customer Platforms | 43,000,000 |  | (4,300,000 | ) | 38,700,000 |  | 10 years
Exclusive Licensing Agreement | 96,000,000 |  | — |  | 96,000,000 |  | Indefinite
Total other identifiable intangible assets | $ | 371,000,000 |  | $ | (19,300,000 | ) | $ | 351,700,000 |  |
The HomeLink® Trade Name and Trademarks were valued utilizing the relief from royalty valuation method, which is a function of projected revenue, the royalty rate that would hypothetically be charged by a licensor of an asset to an unrelated licensee discounted utilizing market participants weighted average cost of capital. The HomeLink® Technology and the Existing Customer Platform assets were valued using forms of the multi-period excess earnings valuation method which estimates future revenues and cash flows derived from the technology, and then subsequently deducts portions of future cash flow that is supported by other intangibles and fixed assets. The resulting cash flows are discounted using a weighted average cost of capital. The Exclusive Licensing Agreement asset (entered into in the ordinary course of business) was valued based on a "with or without" valuation methodology. This method compares the Company's estimated future cash flow projections with the exclusive agreement compared to those same cash flows without that exclusive license agreement. Amortization expense on patents and intangible assets was $5.5 million and $16.5 million during the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2014, respectively, compared $0.8 million and $2.7 million in the same periods in 2013, respectively. Excluding the impact of any future acquisitions, the Company continues to estimate amortization expense for each of the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 to be approximately $22 million annually. No impairment indicators arose during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 which would give reason for an interim impairment test to be performed on goodwill or intangible assets.
