Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at its reporting units that contain goodwill, Banking, Factoring, Payments, and Intelligence. A quantitative goodwill impairment test was performed on the Company's reporting units as of October 1, 2025 which indicated that the fair value of the reporting units exceeded the reporting units' carrying value. After performing an impairment test of intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, it was determined that no indicators of impairment were present and thus, no intangible asset impairment charge was recorded. Except for software intangible assets that are amortized utilizing a straight line method, material acquired intangible assets are being amortized utilizing an accelerated method over their estimated useful lives. The useful lives of the Company's intangible assets range from 4 to 11 years. The future amortization schedule for the Company’s intangible assets with finite lives is as follows: | | | | | | | (Dollars in thousands) | | | 2026 | $ | 9,828 | | | 2027 | 8,487 | | | 2028 | 7,328 | | | 2029 | 6,064 | | | 2030 | 4,329 | | | Thereafter | 11,002 | | | $ | 47,038 | |
