Note 6 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

During the year ended December 31, 2022, there was remeasurement of goodwill related to the RYFL acquisition reducing the balance by $378 thousand, see Note 2 – Acquisition Activity for more detail on the remeasurement. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment. Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible assets in the business acquired. The Bancorp’s goodwill relates to the value inherent in the banking industry and that value is dependent upon the ability of the Bancorp to provide quality, cost effective banking services in a competitive marketplace. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. There has not been any impairment of goodwill identified or recorded.
