During the three months ended January 31, 2024, we recognized additions to goodwill and other intangible assets of $603 million and $494 million, respectively, based on the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition of ESI G roup. The goodwill was assigned to CSG and EISG reportable segments, based on the expected benefits and synergies that are likely to be realized from the ESI Group acquisition. See Note 2, Acquisitions, for additional details. Goodwill is assessed for impairment on a reporting unit basis at least annually in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently when events and circumstances occur indicating that the recorded goodwill may be impaired. The company has not identified any triggering events that indicate an impairment of goodwill for the three months ended January 31, 2024. During the three months ended January 31, 2024, foreign exchange translation impact resulted in increasing other intangible assets by $5 million. Amortization of other intangible assets was $38 million and $23 million for the three months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Estimated intangible assets amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows:
| Amortization expense
| (in millions)
2024 (remainder) | $ | 93 |
2025 | $ | 113 |
2026 | $ | 102 |
2027 | $ | 90 |
2028 | $ | 87 |
Thereafter | $ | 84 |
