| GOODWILL | 7. GOODWILL Goodwill is initially recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is presumed to have an indefinite useful life and is tested at least annually for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Company has two reporting units, the Bank and the Trust Company, for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. All of the Company’s recorded goodwill has been allocated to the Bank reporting unit. The Company performs an annual review in the third quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indications of potential impairment exist, to determine whether recorded goodwill is impaired. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered impaired. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment loss would be recognized equal to the amount of excess, limited to the amount of total goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others: a significant decline in the Company’s expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant decline in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; adverse action or assessment by a regulator; and unanticipated competition. Any adverse change in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of goodwill and could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company performed an impairment assessment as of October 31, 2025 and determined that no impairment of goodwill exists. The Company completed a qualitative assessment of goodwill as of June 30, 2026, and concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Bank (the reporting unit), exceeds its carrying value at that date. No assurances can be given that the Company’s goodwill will not be written down in future periods. If adverse economic conditions or any decreases in the Company’s stock price and market capitalization were deemed to be other than temporary, it may significantly affect the fair value of the reporting unit and may trigger future impairment charges. Any impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. |
