Amortization expense for intangibles totaled $7,753,000, $6,489,000 and $6,309,000 in fiscal years 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. The estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows: $8,331,000 in 2022, $7,639,000 in 2023, $7,335,000 in 2024, $7,007,000 in 2025 and $6,943,000 in 2026. The amortizable intangible assets useful lives are 2 to 20 years for licenses, 2 to 13 years for covenants not to compete, 5 to 25 years for patents, 5 to 20 years for customer-based intangibles and 5 to 20 years for other product and service-related intangibles, which primarily consist of product formulations. All definite-lived intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis with the exception of definite-lived customer-based intangibles and product and service-related intangibles, which are amortized on either a straight-line or an accelerated basis.
