Note 6 - Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill

There were no changes in the goodwill balance in 2015 or 2014. ChoiceOne evaluates goodwill annually for impairment. Recently issued accounting pronouncements allow a company to first perform a qualitative assessment for goodwill prior to a quantitative assessment (Step 1 assessment). If the results of the qualitative assessment indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, then a quantitative assessment must be performed. If not, there is no further assessment required. Management performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill as of June 30, 2014 and 2015 and December 31, 2014 and 2015. The analysis was performed including evaluation of the share price, book value, and financial results of ChoiceOne as compared to the previous year. Additionally, industry and market conditions were evaluated. Average deal prices during 2015 in the Midwest of closed transactions have indicated increases in deal values to tangible common equity, deal values to earnings, and core deposit premiums when compared to the observed prices used in the last quantitative assessment of goodwill in 2012. Further, macro-economic trends have been on a positive trajectory recently and there have been no adverse legal, regulatory, contractual, political or other factors that have materially impacted ChoiceOne. Upon completion of the qualitative assessment, ChoiceOne believes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of ChoiceOne’s equity exceeds the carrying value at the assessment date and there is no further quantitative assessment necessary for either 2015 or 2014.
