The Company evaluates each acquisition to determine if it meets the definition of a business combination. The Company accounts for a transaction as a business combination if it meets the definition, which typically occurs when it assumes the lease, retains the location as a new branch, and offers employment to the existing employees; all other transactions are accounted for as a purchase of assets.

For transactions accounted for as business combination, the purchase price for assets acquired is allocated to the estimated fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The remainder is allocated to goodwill.

The Company records acquired finance receivables at fair value which is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies. Property and equipment are valued at the mutually agreed upon purchase price, which management believes approximates fair value.

On April 5, 2013, the Company purchased the assets of two branches in a business combination with a consumer loan company in the state of Georgia for a cash purchase price of $575. The Company offered employment to the existing employees of such locations. This acquisition was completed in order to expand the Company’s operations into the state of Georgia. All of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. On January 20, 2012, the Company purchased the assets of two affiliated consumer loan companies in a business combination for a cash purchase price of $28,388. The Company offered employment to the existing employees of these companies. This acquisition was completed in order to expand the Company’s operations into the state of Alabama.

The results of all business combinations have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements since the respective acquisition dates. The pro forma impact of these purchases as though they had been acquired at the beginning of the periods presented would not have a material effect on the results of operations as reported.
