GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

7. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Business segments are based on segment leadership structure, which reflects how segment performance is monitored and assessed. During the 2014 first quarter, we realigned our business segments to drive our ongoing growth and leverage the knowledge of our highly experienced team. We now have five major business segments: Retail and Business Banking, Commercial Banking, Automobile Finance and Commercial Real Estate (AFCRE), Regional Banking and The Huntington Private Client Group (RBHPCG), and Home Lending. A Treasury / Other function includes technology and operations, other unallocated assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense. All periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period classification. Amounts relating to the realignment are disclosed in the table below.

A rollforward of goodwill by business segment for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, is presented in the table below:

In 2014, Huntington completed an acquisition of 24 Bank of America branches in Michigan and recorded $17.1 million of goodwill. The remaining $64.2 million of goodwill acquired during 2014 was the result of the Camco Financial acquisition, which was also completed in 2014. For additional information on the acquisitions, see Business Combinations footnote.

Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis as of October 1st each year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. As a result of the 2014 first quarter reorganization in our reported business segments, goodwill was reallocated among the business segments. Immediately following the reallocation, impairment of $3.0 million was recorded in the Home Lending reporting segment. No impairment was recorded in 2013 or 2012.

During the 2014 third quarter, we moved our insurance brokerage business from Treasury / Other to Commercial Banking to align with a change in management responsibilities. Amounts relating to the realignment are disclosed in the table above.
