Note 6 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
During the first quarter of 2026, in connection with the Merger, Pinnacle reorganized its management reporting structure into two major reportable business segments: Banking and Wealth. Prior to the Merger, the Company operated through a single operating and reporting segment. In connection with these changes, goodwill of $1.8 billion was reallocated to the Banking and Wealth reporting units using a relative fair value approach. Changes to the carrying amount of goodwill by reporting unit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 are provided in the following table.

Effective January 1, 2026, Pinnacle merged with Synovus.

Additionally, in connection with the Merger, Pinnacle recorded a core deposit intangible asset of $848 million and a wealth customer relationship intangible asset of $262 million on the merger date.
