Nature of Operations | |
First Trinity Financial Corporation (the “Company”) is the parent holding company of Trinity Life Insurance Company, Family Benefit Life Insurance Company, First Trinity Capital Corporation and Southern Insurance Services, LLC. The Company was incorporated in Oklahoma on April 19, 2004, for the primary purpose of organizing a life insurance subsidiary. The Company raised $1,450,000 from two private placement stock offerings during 2004. On June 22, 2005, the Company’s intrastate public stock offering filed with the Oklahoma Department of Securities for $12,750,000, which included a 10% "over-sale" provision (additional sales of $1,275,000), was declared effective. The offering was completed February 23, 2007. The Company raised $14,025,000 from this offering. On June 29, 2010, the Company commenced a public offering of its common stock registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Oklahoma Department of Securities. The offering was completed April 30, 2012. The Company raised $11,000,010 from this offering. | |
On August 15, 2012, the Company commenced a private placement of its common stock primarily in the states of Kansas, Missouri and South Dakota. The private placement was for 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $8.50 per share. If all shares were sold, the Company would have received $4,335,000 after reduction for estimated offering expenses. This offering was suspended on March 8, 2013 and resulted in gross proceeds of $644,470 from the subscription of 75,820 shares of its common stock and incurred $382,069 in offering costs. | |
The Company purchased First Life America Corporation (“FLAC”) on December 23, 2008. On August 31, 2009, two of the Company’s subsidiaries, Trinity Life Insurance Company (“Old TLIC”) and FLAC, were merged, with FLAC being the surviving company. Immediately following the merger, FLAC changed its name to Trinity Life Insurance Company (“TLIC”). After the merger, the Company had two wholly owned subsidiaries, First Trinity Capital Corporation (“FTCC”) and TLIC, domiciled in Oklahoma. | |
TLIC is primarily engaged in the business of marketing, underwriting and distributing a broad range of individual life and annuity insurance products to individuals in eight states primarily in the Midwest. TLIC’s current product portfolio consists of a modified premium whole life insurance policy with a flexible premium deferred annuity rider, whole life, term, final expense, accidental death and dismemberment and annuity products. The term products are both renewable and convertible and issued for 10, 15, 20 and 30 years. They can be issued with premiums fully guaranteed for the entire term period or with a limited premium guarantee. The final expense is issued as either a simplified issue or as a graded benefit, determined by underwriting. The products are sold through independent agents in the states of Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma and Texas. | |
TLIC purchased Family Benefit Life Insurance Company (“Family Benefit Life”) on December 28, 2011. Family Benefit Life is primarily engaged in the business of marketing, underwriting and distributing a broad range of individual life and annuity insurance products to individuals in sixteen states. Family Benefit Life’s current product portfolio consists of whole life, term, accidental death and dismemberment, annuity, endowment and group life insurance products. The products are sold through independent agents in the states of Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Family Benefit Life has recently been licensed in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas and West Virginia. | |
FTCC was incorporated in 2006, and began operations in January 2007. FTCC provides financing for casualty insurance premiums for individuals and companies and is licensed to conduct premium financing business in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma. The Company’s management has decided to focus on the Company’s core life and annuity insurance business and discontinue offering premium finance contracts. On May 16, 2012, the Company determined and then announced that FTCC would not accept new premium financing contracts after June 30, 2012. FTCC continued to process payments and service all existing premium financing contracts after June 30, 2012 through the duration that the property and casualty premium financing contracts were in force. The Company virtually completed processing and servicing its premium finance operations on June 30, 2013 subject to minor refunds, minor collections of past due accounts and legal matters. The Company incurred minimal costs related to exiting its premium financing operations since resources were redeployed into its growing life and annuity insurance operations. | |
The Company also owns 100% of Southern Insurance Services, LLC, (“SIS”), a limited liability company acquired in 2010, that operated as a property and casualty insurance agency but currently has no operations. | |
Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2013 or for any other interim period or for any other future year. Certain financial information which is normally included in notes to consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but which is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. | |
Principles of Consolidation | |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. | |
Reclassifications | |
Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year and prior quarter financial statements to conform to current year and current quarter classifications. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income or shareholders' equity. | |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. | |

Common stock is fully paid, non-assessable and has a par value of $.01 per share. | |
On January 11, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 5% share dividend by which shareholders received a share of common stock for each 20 shares of common stock of the Company they held. The dividend was payable to the holders of shares of the Corporation as of March 10, 2012. Fractional shares were rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. The Company issued 378,928 shares in connection with the stock dividend that resulted in accumulated deficit being charged $2,841,960 with an offsetting credit of $2,841,960 to common stock and additional paid-in capital. This stock dividend was a non-cash investing and financing activity. | |
Subsequent Events | |
Management has evaluated all events subsequent to September 30, 2013 through the date that these financial statements have been issued. | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income | |
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance requires an entity to present, either on the face of the statement of income or in the notes, separately for each component of comprehensive income, the current period reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income affected by the reclassification. | |
The updated guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective March 31, 2013, and such adoption did not have any effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity. | |
Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment | |
In July 2012, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding the impairment test applicable to indefinite-lived intangible assets that is similar to the impairment guidance applicable to goodwill. Under the updated guidance, an entity may assess qualitative factors (such as changes in management, key personnel, strategy, key technology or customers) that may impact the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and lead to the determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. If an entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value, an impairment test must be performed. The impairment test requires an entity to calculate the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. | |
The updated guidance was effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, but early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective December 31, 2012, and such adoption did not have any effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity. |

As of September 30, 2013, all of the above equity securities had a fair value to cost ratio equal to or greater than 79%. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s decision to record an impairment loss is primarily based on whether the security’s fair value is likely to remain significantly below its book value based on all of the factors considered. Factors that are considered include the length of time the security’s fair value has been below its carrying amount, the severity of the decline in value, the credit worthiness of the issuer, and the coupon and/or dividend payment history of the issuer. The Company also assesses whether it intends to sell or whether it is more likely than not that it may be required to sell the security prior to its recovery in value. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
For any fixed maturity securities that are other-than-temporarily impaired, the Company determines the portion of the other-than-temporary impairment that is credit-related and the portion that is related to other factors. The credit-related portion is the difference between the expected future cash flows and the amortized cost basis of the fixed maturity security, and that difference is charged to earnings. The non-credit-related portion representing the remaining difference to fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Only in the case of a credit-related impairment where management has the intent to sell the security, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, is a fixed maturity security adjusted to fair value and the resulting losses recognized in realized gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of operations. Any other-than-temporary impairments on equity securities are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the periods incurred as the difference between fair value and cost. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Based on management’s review, the Company experienced no other-than-temporary impairments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012. Management believes that the Company will fully recover its cost basis in the securities held as of September 30, 2013, and management does not have the intent to sell nor is it more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell such securities until they recover or mature. The temporary impairments shown herein are primarily the result of the current interest rate environment rather than credit factors that would imply other-than-temporary impairment. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

3. Fair Value Measurements | |||||||||||||||||||||
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) on the measurement date. The Company also considers the impact on fair value of a significant decrease in volume and level of activity for an asset or liability when compared with normal activity. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company holds fixed maturity and equity securities that are measured and reported at fair market value on the statement of financial position. The Company determines the fair market values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 1 assets include equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities include fixed maturity securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments or assets and liabilities whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes U.S. Government and agency mortgage-backed debt securities and corporate debt securities. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company’s Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category generally includes certain private equity investments where independent pricing information was not able to be obtained for a significant portion of the underlying assets. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company has categorized its financial instruments, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into the three-level fair value hierarchy. If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. A review of fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the valuation inputs, or their ability to be observed, may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. Reclassifications impacting the fair value hierarchy are reported as transfers in and out of the category as of the beginning of the period in which the reclassifications occur. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s fair value hierarchy for those financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 is summarized as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||

As of September 30, 2013, Level 3 financial instruments consisted of three private placement common stocks that have no active trading. During 2013, one private placement common stock was purchased. During 2012, one private placement common stock was sold and another was purchased. These private placement stocks represent investments in small development stage insurance holding companies. The fair value for these securities was determined through the use of unobservable assumptions about market participants. The Company has assumed a willing market participant would purchase the securities for the same price as the Company paid until such time as the development stage company commences operations. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Fair values for Level 1 and Level 2 assets for the Company’s fixed maturity and equity securities available-for-sale are primarily based on prices supplied by a third party investment service. The third party investment service provides quoted prices in the market which use observable inputs in developing such rates. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company analyzes market valuations received to verify reasonableness and to understand the key assumptions used and the sources. Since the fixed maturity securities owned by the Company do not trade on a daily basis, the third party investment service prepares estimates of fair value measurements using relevant market data, benchmark curves, sector groupings and matrix pricing. As the fair value estimates of the Company’s fixed maturity securities are based on observable market information rather than market quotes, the estimates of fair value on these fixed maturity securities are included in Level 2 of the hierarchy. The Company’s Level 2 investments include obligations of U.S. government agencies, state and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities, corporate bonds and foreign bonds. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s equity securities are included in Level 1 and Level 2 and the private placement common stocks included in Level 3.

The estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment was required to interpret market data to develop these estimates. Accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts which could be realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the fair value amounts. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value disclosures for financial instruments in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto: | |||||||||||||||||||||
Fixed Maturity and Equity Securities | |||||||||||||||||||||
The fair value of fixed maturity and equity securities are based on the principles previously discussed as Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Mortgage Loans on Real Estate | |||||||||||||||||||||
The fair values for mortgage loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using the actual spot rate yield curve in effect at the end of the period, as determined by recent new loan activity. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accrued Investment Income and Policy Loans | |||||||||||||||||||||
The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair values. Cash and cash equivalents are included in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy due to their highly liquid nature. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Other Long-Term Investments | |||||||||||||||||||||
Other long-term investments are comprised of lottery prize receivables and fair value is derived by using a discounted cash flow approach. Projected cash flows are discounted using the average Citigroup Pension Liability Index in effect at the end of each period. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Loans from Premium Financing | |||||||||||||||||||||
The carrying value of loans from premium financing is net of unearned interest and any estimated loan losses and approximates fair value. Unearned interest was $1,389 as of December 31, 2012. Estimated loan losses were $223,075 and $228,999 as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Investment Contracts – Policyholders’ Account Balances | |||||||||||||||||||||
The fair value for liabilities under investment-type insurance contracts (accumulation annuities) is calculated using a discounted cash flow approach. Cash flows are projected using actuarial assumptions and discounted to the valuation date using risk-free rates adjusted for credit risk and the nonperformance risk of the liabilities. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The fair values for insurance contracts other than investment-type contracts are not required to be disclosed. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Policy Claims | |||||||||||||||||||||
The carrying amounts reported for these liabilities approximate their fair value. |

6. Federal Income Taxes | |
The provision for federal income taxes is based on the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided for the cumulative temporary differences between balances of assets and liabilities determined under GAAP and the balances using tax bases. A valuation allowance has been established due to the uncertainty of certain loss carryforwards. | |
The Company has no known uncertain tax benefits within its provision for income taxes. In addition, the Company does not believe it would be subject to any penalties or interest relative to any open tax years and, therefore, has not accrued any such amounts. The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various state jurisdictions. The 2009 through 2012 U.S. federal tax years are subject to income tax examination by tax authorities. The Company classifies any interest and penalties (if applicable) as income tax expense in the financial statements. |

Nature of Operations | |
First Trinity Financial Corporation (the “Company”) is the parent holding company of Trinity Life Insurance Company, Family Benefit Life Insurance Company, First Trinity Capital Corporation and Southern Insurance Services, LLC. The Company was incorporated in Oklahoma on April 19, 2004, for the primary purpose of organizing a life insurance subsidiary. The Company raised $1,450,000 from two private placement stock offerings during 2004. On June 22, 2005, the Company’s intrastate public stock offering filed with the Oklahoma Department of Securities for $12,750,000, which included a 10% "over-sale" provision (additional sales of $1,275,000), was declared effective. The offering was completed February 23, 2007. The Company raised $14,025,000 from this offering. On June 29, 2010, the Company commenced a public offering of its common stock registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Oklahoma Department of Securities. The offering was completed April 30, 2012. The Company raised $11,000,010 from this offering. | |
On August 15, 2012, the Company commenced a private placement of its common stock primarily in the states of Kansas, Missouri and South Dakota. The private placement was for 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $8.50 per share. If all shares were sold, the Company would have received $4,335,000 after reduction for estimated offering expenses. This offering was suspended on March 8, 2013 and resulted in gross proceeds of $644,470 from the subscription of 75,820 shares of its common stock and incurred $382,069 in offering costs. | |
The Company purchased First Life America Corporation (“FLAC”) on December 23, 2008. On August 31, 2009, two of the Company’s subsidiaries, Trinity Life Insurance Company (“Old TLIC”) and FLAC, were merged, with FLAC being the surviving company. Immediately following the merger, FLAC changed its name to Trinity Life Insurance Company (“TLIC”). After the merger, the Company had two wholly owned subsidiaries, First Trinity Capital Corporation (“FTCC”) and TLIC, domiciled in Oklahoma. | |
TLIC is primarily engaged in the business of marketing, underwriting and distributing a broad range of individual life and annuity insurance products to individuals in eight states primarily in the Midwest. TLIC’s current product portfolio consists of a modified premium whole life insurance policy with a flexible premium deferred annuity rider, whole life, term, final expense, accidental death and dismemberment and annuity products. The term products are both renewable and convertible and issued for 10, 15, 20 and 30 years. They can be issued with premiums fully guaranteed for the entire term period or with a limited premium guarantee. The final expense is issued as either a simplified issue or as a graded benefit, determined by underwriting. The products are sold through independent agents in the states of Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma and Texas. | |
TLIC purchased Family Benefit Life Insurance Company (“Family Benefit Life”) on December 28, 2011. Family Benefit Life is primarily engaged in the business of marketing, underwriting and distributing a broad range of individual life and annuity insurance products to individuals in sixteen states. Family Benefit Life’s current product portfolio consists of whole life, term, accidental death and dismemberment, annuity, endowment and group life insurance products. The products are sold through independent agents in the states of Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Family Benefit Life has recently been licensed in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Texas and West Virginia. | |
FTCC was incorporated in 2006, and began operations in January 2007. FTCC provides financing for casualty insurance premiums for individuals and companies and is licensed to conduct premium financing business in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Oklahoma. The Company’s management has decided to focus on the Company’s core life and annuity insurance business and discontinue offering premium finance contracts. On May 16, 2012, the Company determined and then announced that FTCC would not accept new premium financing contracts after June 30, 2012. FTCC continued to process payments and service all existing premium financing contracts after June 30, 2012 through the duration that the property and casualty premium financing contracts were in force. The Company virtually completed processing and servicing its premium finance operations on June 30, 2013 subject to minor refunds, minor collections of past due accounts and legal matters. The Company incurred minimal costs related to exiting its premium financing operations since resources were redeployed into its growing life and annuity insurance operations. | |
The Company also owns 100% of Southern Insurance Services, LLC, (“SIS”), a limited liability company acquired in 2010, that operated as a property and casualty insurance agency but currently has no operations. | |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2013 or for any other interim period or for any other future year. Certain financial information which is normally included in notes to consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but which is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. | |
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Principles of Consolidation | |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. | |
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Reclassifications | |
Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year and prior quarter financial statements to conform to current year and current quarter classifications. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income or shareholders' equity. | |
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. | |
Stockholders' Equity, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Common Stock | |
Common stock is fully paid, non-assessable and has a par value of $.01 per share. | |
On January 11, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 5% share dividend by which shareholders received a share of common stock for each 20 shares of common stock of the Company they held. The dividend was payable to the holders of shares of the Corporation as of March 10, 2012. Fractional shares were rounded to the nearest whole number of shares. The Company issued 378,928 shares in connection with the stock dividend that resulted in accumulated deficit being charged $2,841,960 with an offsetting credit of $2,841,960 to common stock and additional paid-in capital. This stock dividend was a non-cash investing and financing activity. | |
Subsequent Events, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Subsequent Events | |
Management has evaluated all events subsequent to September 30, 2013 through the date that these financial statements have been issued. | |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income | |
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance requires an entity to present, either on the face of the statement of income or in the notes, separately for each component of comprehensive income, the current period reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income affected by the reclassification. | |
The updated guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective March 31, 2013, and such adoption did not have any effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity. | |
Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment | |
In July 2012, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding the impairment test applicable to indefinite-lived intangible assets that is similar to the impairment guidance applicable to goodwill. Under the updated guidance, an entity may assess qualitative factors (such as changes in management, key personnel, strategy, key technology or customers) that may impact the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and lead to the determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. If an entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value, an impairment test must be performed. The impairment test requires an entity to calculate the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. | |
The updated guidance was effective for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, but early adoption was permitted. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective December 31, 2012, and such adoption did not have any effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity. |
