This excerpt taken from the WEN 10-K filed Apr 3, 2006. Identifiable Intangibles Assets and Goodwill With the acquisition of Jefferson Capital Systems, LLC and Ascension Capital Group, Ltd. during 2005, the Company purchased certain tangible and intangible assets, which includes goodwill. In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, SFAS No. 142 (“FAS 142”), “Goodwill and other Intangibles Assets,” the Company’s identifiable intangible assets, which all fall into one intangible asset class, are recorded at cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives range from four to seven years (see note 2). Acquired identifiable intangible assets are presented net of accumulated amortization of $0.8 million as of December 31, 2005. The estimated annual aggregate of amortization for intangibles assets is $1.6 million, $1.1 million, $0.8 million, $0.6 million and $0.4 million, from December 31, 2006 through 2010, respectively. Goodwill, (see note 3), pursuant to FAS 142, is not amortized, but rather reviewed annually for impairment. |
