The Company has recorded goodwill as a result of its various business combinations. Goodwill is recorded as the difference, if any, between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair value of the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired net of liabilities assumed, including noncontrolling interests. Changes in the Company’s goodwill balances recognized during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows (in thousands):
|  | 1/1/2020 |  |  | Impairment charges [1] |  |  | Foreign currency translation |  |  | 12/31/2020 |

[1] As discussed in Note 1 – Summary of Business Organization, Operations and Significant Policies, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment testing on the first day of the fourth quarter of 2020. That testing indicated that there was a goodwill impairment in its community based reporting unit, which is included in the Company’s GEO Care reportable segment, and for which a quantitative analysis was performed. After the impairment charge, there is approximately $148.8 million of goodwill remaining in the community based reporting unit at December 31, 2020.

Intangible assets consisted of the following as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):
|  | Weighted |  |  | December 31, 2020 |  |  | December 31, 2019 |
|  | Average Useful Life (years) |  |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  |  | Accumulated Amortization |  |  | Net Carrying Amount |  |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  |  | Accumulated Amortization |  |  | Net Carrying Amount |
Facility management contracts |  |  | 16.3 |  |  | $ | 308,398 |  |  | $ | (168,848 | ) |  | $ | 139,550 |  |  | $ | 308,432 |  |  | $ | (148,171 | ) |  | $ | 160,261 |

The accounting for recognized intangible assets is based on the useful lives to the reporting entity. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. The Company estimates the useful lives of its intangible assets taking into consideration (i) the expected use of the asset by the Company, (ii) the expected useful lives of other related assets or groups of assets, (iii) legal or contractual limitations, (iv) the Company's historical experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements, (v) the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors and (vi) the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected cash flows from the asset. Amortization expense was $22.3 million, $22.3 million and $22.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and primarily related to the U.S. Secure Services and GEO Care segments’ amortization of intangible assets for acquired management contracts. The Company relies on its historical experience in determining the useful life of facility management contracts. The Company makes assumptions related to acquired facility management contracts based on the competitive environment for individual contracts, our historical success rates in retaining contracts, the supply of available beds in the market, changes in legislation, the projected profitability of the facilities and other market conditions. As of December 31, 2020, the weighted average period before the next contract renewal or extension for the facility management contracts was approximately 2.0 years. Although the facility management contracts acquired have renewal and extension terms in the near term, the Company has historically maintained these relationships beyond the contractual periods. Estimated amortization expense related to the Company’s finite-lived intangible assets for 2021 through 2025 and thereafter is as follows (in thousands):
Fiscal Year |  | Total Amortization Expense |
2021 |  | $ | 21,189 |
2022 |  |  | 16,705 |
2023 |  |  | 13,481 |
2024 |  |  | 9,748 |
2025 |  |  | 9,696 |
Thereafter |  |  | 71,728 |
|  | $ | 142,547 |
