Note 4 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
The following table presents goodwill balances and adjustments to those balances for each of our reportable segments and corporate
investments for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 :
The adjustments to goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2012 were due primarily to foreign currency translation
and changes in tax items. A portion of goodwill acquired as part of the GSI acquisition and Magento acquisition (included in Corporate and
Other) was allocated to the Marketplaces and Payments segments, respectively, based on synergies expected to be realized. The adjustments to
goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2011 were due primarily to foreign currency translation.
We conducted our annual impairment test of goodwill as of August 31, 2012 and determined that no adjustment to the carrying value of
goodwill for any reportable units was necessary. As of December 31, 2012 , we determined that no events or circumstances from August 31,
2012 through December 31, 2012 indicated that a further assessment was necessary.
Intangible Assets
The components of identifiable intangible assets are as follows:
Amortization expense for intangible assets was $433 million , $337 million and $254 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 ,
2011 and 2010 , respectively.
