The results of the annual goodwill impairment test performed as of October 1, 2015, indicated fair values in excess of carrying amounts for each of the Company’s reporting units. The Company noted no significant events or conditions during the first and second quarter of 2016 that would have affected the conclusions from the annual assessment. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company changed its operating segments, as a result of the management structure change as discussed in Note 14, which resulted in a corresponding change to the Company’s reporting units. The Company performed interim goodwill testing on one of its experiential reporting units and one non-material reporting unit, resulting in a partial impairment of goodwill of $27,893 and $1,738 relating to the experiential reporting unit and non-material reporting unit, respectively. Additionally, as a result of the annual goodwill impairment test performed as of October 1, 2016, the Company recognized a partial impairment of goodwill of $18,893 relating to one of the Company’s strategic communications reporting units. See Note 2 for further information. The total accumulated goodwill impairment charges are $95,407 through December 31, 2016. During the year for 2016, the Company wrote off goodwill of $764 related to the sale of its ownership interests in Bryan Mills to the noncontrolling shareholders. This write off is included in other income (expense). The weighted average amortization periods for customer relationships are six years and other intangible assets are eight years. In total, the weighted average amortization period is seven years. Amortization expense related to amortizable intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $21,726, $30,024, and $29,749, respectively. The estimated amortization expense for the five succeeding years is as follows:
Year |  | Amortization
2017 |  | $ | 16,677 |
2018 |  | $ | 11,525 |
2019 |  | $ | 7,346 |
