Business Combinations [Abstract] |
Acquisition | Acquisitions Big Sandy On February 28, 2019, the Company completed its preliminary valuation for the acquisition of the assets of Big Sandy Broadband, Inc. ("Big Sandy") for $10 million and recorded $4.6 million of property, plant and equipment; $2.8 million of subscriber relationships; and $2.6 million of goodwill which is reported in the Cable segment and was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. The estimated useful lives of the acquired property, plant and equipment were approximately 2.5 years to 11 years and the estimated useful lives for subscriber relationships were 11 years at the time of the acquisition. Big Sandy was a provider of cable television, telephone and high speed internet services. The Company's investment will allow the Cable segment to expand its footprint into the adjacent markets of eastern Kentucky. Our preliminary allocation of the acquisition price is based on our preliminary estimate of fair value for each of the acquired assets and liabilities. These estimates may be revised during the one year measurement period provided by the authoritative guidance applicable to business combinations.
