Of the $76.9 million of intangible assets acquired as part of the Quixote acquisition, $28.6 million was assigned to the registered trade name, which is not subject to amortization. The remaining $48.3 million of acquired intangible assets includes customer relationships of $45.4 million (seven-year useful life) and non-compete agreements of $2.9 million (five-year weighted-average useful life). The finite-lived intangible assets are subject to a weighted-average useful life of approximately seven years.

Goodwill of $153.4 million for the Quixote acquisition was recognized in connection with the transaction. The goodwill recognized is attributable to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of Quixote. The goodwill has been allocated to the studio reporting unit. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and, as a result, deferred taxes have been recorded.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized acquisition-related costs of $8.7 million for the Quixote acquisition. These costs are included in transaction-related expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The amounts of revenue and loss from operations of Quixote included in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations from the Quixote Acquisition Date to December 31, 2022 are as follows:
Revenue$33,200 
Loss from operations$(5,290)
