Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block]

2.	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances warrant. The Company’s annual step one impairment test as of December 31, 2013 concluded that its goodwill was not impaired; however, the Company can make no assurances that future impairment tests will not result in goodwill impairments. The Company concluded there were no triggering events during the first three months of 2014 that required an interim goodwill impairment test.

On November 1, 2013, the Company’s subsidiary, Landmark National Bank, assumed approximately $181.9 million in deposits in connection with the acquisition of Citizens Bank. The Company recorded a $1.7 million core deposit intangible asset in connection with the acquisition. Core deposit intangible assets are amortized over the estimated useful life of ten years on an accelerated basis. The Company also recorded a lease intangible asset of $350,000 relating to the leased portion of an acquired branch. Lease intangible assets are amortized over the life of the lease. A summary of the other intangible assets that continue to be subject to amortization is as follows:

	Gross carrying amount		Accumulated amortization		Net carrying amount
