Schedule of future amortization expense | The following table shows the expected future amortization expense for our acquired intangible assets at October 31, 2023.

Amortization of other acquired intangible assets, such as customer lists, is charged to amortization of other acquired intangible assets in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. If impairment events occur, they could accelerate the timing of acquired intangible asset charges.
