Acquisitions, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Acquisitions, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill is recorded as part of the Company’s acquisitions and primarily arose from the acquired assembled workforce and brokerage and financing sales platforms. The Company expects all of the goodwill to be tax deductible, with the tax-deductible amount of goodwill related to the contingent and deferred consideration to be determined once the cash
payments are made to settle any contingent and deferred consideration. The goodwill resulting from acquisitions is allocated to the Company’s one reporting unit.

(1)Total weighted remaining average amortization period was 3.5 years and 3.8 years as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Intangible assets principally include non-compete agreements and customer relationships.
The Company recorded amortization expense for intangible assets of $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $4.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The amortization expense of $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 includes an accelerated amortization of $1.2 million and an impairment of $2.2 million of certain intangible assets resulting from changes in estimates.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill consisted of the following (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2024, the Company considered the impact of economic conditions and evaluated its goodwill and intangible assets for impairment testing. The Company estimated the recoverability of the intangible assets by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future undiscounted cash flows that the Company expects the asset to generate. The sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows related to a prior acquisition was lower than the carrying amount of the intangible assets. We determined the fair value to be nominal based on a discounted cash flow over the remaining useful life, resulting in an impairment of the related intangible assets of $2.2 million. The Company concluded that there was no impairment of goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2024 and no impairment of goodwill and intangible assets during the year ended December 31, 2023.
