(1) DSA includes accumulated impairment losses of $1 billion, which were recognized in fiscal years 2008 and 2010.
Based on the Company’s quantitative goodwill impairment test, which was performed in the fourth quarter for each of the fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021, the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded the reporting unit’s book value and, therefore, goodwill was not impaired. After completing the quantitative testing for fiscal year 2023, all reporting units exceeded the carrying value by a significant amount except for the Biologics Solutions reporting unit which had a fair value that exceeded its carrying value by approximately 20%. The increase in goodwill during fiscal year 2023 related to the acquisitions of Noveprim and SAMDI in the DSA reportable segment. The increase in goodwill during fiscal year 2022 related to the acquisition of Explora in the RMS reportable segment, partially offset by a decrease due to the Avian divestiture impacting the Manufacturing reportable segment. Intangible Assets, Net The following table displays intangible assets, net by major class:

The decrease in intangible assets, net during fiscal year 2023 related primarily to normal amortization over the useful lives, partially offset by the acquisitions of Noveprim and SAMDI. Amortization expense of definite-lived intangible assets, including client relationships, for fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $137.4 million, $146.6 million and $124.9 million, respectively. As of December 30, 2023, estimated amortization expense for intangible assets for each of the next five fiscal years is expected to be as follows:
Fiscal Year |  | Amortization Expense
|  | (in thousands)
2024 |  | $ | 129,153 |
2025 |  | $ | 120,995 |
2026 |  | $ | 115,757 |
2027 |  | $ | 103,164 |
2028 |  | $ | 91,315 |
