Intangible assets related to our acquisitions are recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date. The change in intangible assets during the year ended January 31, 2025 is primarily due to the acquisitions of OCR, ASD, BoxTop, MCP and Sellercloud partially offset by amortization. The balance of the change in intangible assets is due to foreign currency translation.

Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized into income over their useful lives. Amortization expense for existing intangible assets is expected to be $321.3 million over the following periods: $71.2 million for 2026, $56.6 million for 2027, $49.4 million for 2028, $41.0 million for 2029, $29.3 million for 2030 and $73.8 million thereafter. Expected future amortization expense is subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and assumes no future adjustments to acquired intangible assets.
