Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract] |
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets White Mountains accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, White Mountains recognizes and measures the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired entities at their acquisition date fair values. The estimated acquisition date fair values, generally consisting of intangible assets and liabilities for contingent consideration, may be recorded at provisional amounts in circumstances where the information necessary to complete the acquisition accounting is not available at the reporting date. Any such provisional amounts are finalized as measurement period adjustments within one year of the acquisition date. The following table presents a summary of the acquisition date fair values of goodwill and other intangible assets for acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

(1) The relative fair values of goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in connection with the acquisition of Embrace and the acquisition in Other Operations had not yet been finalized at September 30, 2019. White Mountains evaluates goodwill for potential impairment at least annually, generally in the interim period prior to the one-year anniversary of the acquisition date. An impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets occurs when the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. Between annual evaluations, White Mountains considers changes in circumstances or events subsequent to the most recent evaluation that may indicate that an impairment may exist and, if necessary will perform an interim review for potential impairment. During the second quarter of 2019, White Mountains performed a periodic review of NSM’s goodwill and other intangible assets and concluded that goodwill and other intangible assets were not impaired. There have been no changes in circumstances or events for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2019 that would indicate the existence of an impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets for any acquired entity. The following table presents the acquisition date fair values, accumulated amortization and net carrying values for other intangible assets and goodwill, by company as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:
