Recorded an impairment charge of $270.4 during the year ended December 31, 2012 related to our Cooling Equipment and Services ("Cooling") reporting unit.

(2)
Includes adjustments resulting from revisions to estimates of fair value of certain assets and liabilities associated with Clyde Union and other acquisitions of $73.6 and foreign currency translation adjustments of $8.4, partially offset by the allocation of goodwill of $24.3 related to the deconsolidation of our dry cooling products business in China (see Note 4).

        Amortization expense was $33.0, $34.1 and $22.8 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Estimated amortization expense related to these intangible assets is $31.1 in 2014, $30.7 in 2015, $30.4 in 2016, $30.0 in 2017, and $29.9 in 2018.

        At December 31, 2013, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives consisted of $437.6 in the Flow Technology reportable segment, $47.3 in the Thermal Equipment and Services reportable segment, and $8.0 in Industrial Products and Services and Other. Trademarks with indefinite lives consisted of $287.1 in the Flow Technology reportable segment, $126.3 in the Thermal Equipment and Services reportable segment, and $18.4 in Industrial Products and Services and Other.

        Consistent with the requirements of the Intangible — Goodwill and Other Topic of the Codification, the fair values of our reporting units generally are estimated using discounted cash flow projections that we believe to be reasonable under current and forecasted circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of the reported net assets of our reporting units. Other considerations are also incorporated, including comparable industry price multiples. Many of our reporting units closely follow changes in the industries and end markets that they serve. Accordingly, we consider estimates and judgments that affect the future cash flow projections, including principal methods of competition such as volume, price, service, product performance and technical innovations and estimates associated with cost improvement initiatives, capacity utilization and assumptions for inflation and foreign currency changes. Any significant change in market conditions and estimates or judgments used to determine expected future cash flows that indicate a reduction in carrying value may give rise to impairment in the period that the change becomes known.

        We perform our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter in conjunction with our annual financial planning process, with such testing based primarily on events and circumstances existing as of the end of the third quarter. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. Based on our annual goodwill impairment testing in 2013, we determined that the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units exceeds the carrying value of their respective net assets by at least 10%.

        We perform our annual trademarks impairment testing during the fourth quarter, or on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. The fair values of our trademarks are determined by applying estimated royalty rates to projected revenues, with the resulting cash flows discounted at a rate of return that reflects current market conditions. During 2013, we recorded impairment charges of $6.7 related to trademarks of certain businesses within our Flow Technology reportable segment. Other changes in the gross values of trademarks and other identifiable intangible assets related primarily to foreign currency translation.

        In connection with our annual goodwill impairment testing in 2012, our analysis indicated that the estimated fair value of our Cooling reporting unit was below the carrying value of its net assets. As a result, we estimated the implied fair value of Cooling's goodwill, which resulted in an impairment charge related to such goodwill of $270.4. The impairment charge of $270.4 was composed of (i) a $125.8 difference between the estimated fair value of Cooling compared to the carrying value of its net assets and (ii) an allocation to certain tangible and intangible assets of $144.6 for the estimated increases in fair value for these assets solely for purposes of applying the impairment provisions of the Intangible — Goodwill and Other Topic of the Codification.

        In addition to the goodwill impairment charge of $270.4, we recorded an impairment charge of $11.0 in 2012 related to certain long-term assets of our Cooling reporting unit. Lastly, we recorded impairment charges of $4.5 in 2012 related to trademarks for two other businesses within our Thermal Equipment and Services reportable segment.

        In the second quarter of 2011, our SPX Heat Transfer reporting unit within our Thermal Equipment and Services reportable segment experienced a decline in its revenues and profitability, furthering a trend that began late in the first quarter of 2011. As a result, during the second quarter of 2011, we updated the projection of future discounted cash flows for SPX Heat Transfer, which indicated that the reporting unit's fair value was less than the carrying value of its net assets. Accordingly, we recorded an impairment charge of $24.7 during the second quarter of 2011 associated with SPX Heat Transfer's goodwill ($17.2) and indefinite-lived intangible assets ($7.5). In connection with our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2011, and in consideration of a further decline in SPX Heat Transfer's revenue and profitability, we determined that the remaining goodwill ($3.6) of the reporting unit was impaired and, thus, recorded an impairment charge of $3.6 during the fourth quarter of 2011.
