Following the April 2024 announcement of the Cboe Digital spot market wind down and unwinding of the minority ownership structure in the holding company parent of the Cboe Digital entities, the Company performed an interim impairment test for the intangible assets recognized in the Digital reporting unit as the announcement was considered a potential indication of impairment. The Company concluded that the carrying value of the trading registrations and licenses and technology exceeded their estimated fair value, as their projected future cash flows, subsequent to the decision to wind down the business, did not support their valuation, and recorded an impairment charge of $81.0 million in the condensed consolidated statements of income during the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, amortization expense was $20.7 million and $28.2 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, amortization expense was $68.2 million and $88.4 million, respectively. The estimated future amortization expense is $20.8 million for the remainder of 2024, $70.8 million for 2025, $63.4 million for 2026, $56.6 million for 2027, and $51.0 million for 2028. The following tables present the categories of intangible assets by segment as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in millions, except as stated):

In October 2022, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Cboe NL, entered into a Data Provider Agreement with Pyth Data Association (“Pyth”) to create a data feed and begin publishing limited derived equities market data for certain symbols from one of its four U.S. equities exchanges on the Pyth Network, a decentralized financial market data distribution platform for aggregated data. In exchange, Pyth granted Cboe NL 16,666,666 restricted PYTH tokens which unlock annually over a four-year period in equal tranches; the first 25% tranche of PYTH tokens unlocked in May 2024. The PYTH tokens, which are included within intangible assets, net in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are carried at their historical value of $0.06 per token and are reviewed each reporting period for potential impairment. In May 2024, the Company recorded $1.0 million in market data fees revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income, which represents the historical value of the grant of 16,666,666 restricted PYTH tokens earned for satisfying the performance obligations outlined in the Data Provider Agreement.
