Intangible Assets

 The estimated fair values of intangible assets recognized as the result of title insurance agency acquisitions are principally based on values obtained from an independent third-party valuation service and are all Level 3 inputs. Management determined that no events or changes in circumstances occurred during the periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 that would indicate the carrying amounts may not be recoverable, and therefore, determined that no identifiable intangible assets were impaired.

Identifiable intangible assets consist of the following as of December 31:

Goodwill and Title Plants
As of December 31, 2024, the Company recognized $9.6 million in goodwill and $1.6 million in title plants, net of impairments, as the result of title insurance agency acquisitions. The title plants are included with other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of goodwill and the title plants as of the date of acquisition, both Level 3 inputs, were principally based on values obtained from an independent third-party valuation service. In accordance with FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, the Company determined that no events or changes in circumstances occurred during the periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 that would indicate the carrying amounts may not be recoverable, and therefore, determined that there were no goodwill or title plant impairments.
