We completed our acquisition of Simplifile and several other acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (Note 3). Foreign currency translation adjustments result from a portion of our goodwill and other intangible assets being held at our U.K., EU and Canadian subsidiaries, whose functional currencies are not the U.S. dollar. The change in other activity, net, in the goodwill table above primarily relates to adjustments to the fair value of the net tangible assets relating to acquisitions, with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. We did no t recognize any impairment losses on goodwill or other intangible assets during the nine and three months ended September 30, 2019.
