During the year ended May 31, 2022, as a result of delays in product registrations in Latin America and changes in market opportunities, causing a shift in our strategic priorities, management recorded a non-cash impairment of $110,033 of licences, permits and applications and $85,471 of intellectual property, trademarks, knowhow & brands,

representing all of the intangible asset values related to those entities, and discounted cash flows (refer to Note 10 Goodwill for further details). Included in Licenses, permits & applications is $248,411 of indefinite-lived intangible assets (2021 - $412,000).

Estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years and thereafter is as follows:
