As of September 30, 2018 |  | $ | 704.3 |  | $ | 435.9 |  | $ | 196.5 |  | $ | 118.0 |  | $ | 1,454.7

As a result of the Company’s divestiture of the GBL division and decision to retain the HPC division, the Company reconsidered the way management views its business activities and reportable segments; which also changed the reporting units that the Company utilizes to recognize goodwill. Spectrum had historically recognized goodwill at its Global Batteries and Appliance (GBA) reporting unit and separate operating segment. With the separation of the GBL and HPC components, goodwill previously recognized as part of the GBA reporting unit was allocated to HPC and the GBL discontinued operations, based upon relative fair value, during the first quarter when the decision was made to retain the HPC division and separate HPC assets from the GBL assets. No goodwill impairment was recorded in connection with the GBL divestiture and change to the plan of sale of the HPC division. Refer to Note 3 - Divestitures and Note 19 - Segment information for further discussion. Certain tradename intangible assets have an indefinite life and are not amortized. The balance of tradenames not subject to amortization was $1,059.6 million and $1,064.4 million as of June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. The carrying value and accumulated amortization for definite lived intangible assets subject to amortization are as follows:
|  | June 30, 2019 |  | September 30, 2018
(in millions) |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  | Accumulated Amortization |  | Net |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  | Accumulated Amortization |  | Net
Customer relationships |  | $ | 698.9 |  | $ | (322.1) |  | $ | 376.8 |  | $ | 701.3 |  | $ | (275.3) |  | $ | 426.0
Technology assets |  |  | 181.5 |  |  | (88.9) |  |  | 92.6 |  |  | 181.5 |  |  | (78.2) |  |  | 103.3
Tradenames |  |  | 153.3 |  |  | (114.8) |  |  | 38.5 |  |  | 153.2 |  |  | (105.1) |  |  | 48.1

Amortization expense from the intangible assets for the three month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $16.4 million and $11.8 million, respectively. Amortization expense from the intangible assets for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $66.6 million and $41.1 million, respectively. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2019, there was incremental amortization expense of $15.5 million attributable to amortization expense on intangible assets of HPC that were previously held for sale. See Note 3 – Divestitures for further discussion of the change in plan to sell the HPC division. Excluding the impact of any future acquisitions or changes in foreign currency, the Company estimates annual amortization expense of intangible assets for the next five fiscal years will be as follows:
(in millions) |  | Amortization
2019 |  | $ | 67.6
2020 |  |  | 67.4
