On February 19, 2015, we completed the acquisition of 12 pawn stores in Central Texas doing business under the "Cash Pawn" brand. We recorded $10.7 million in goodwill pertaining to this acquisition. The acquisition was made as part of our continuing strategy to enhance our earnings over the long-term. The factors contributing to the recognition of goodwill were based on several strategic and synergistic benefits we expect to realize from the acquisitions. These benefits include a greater presence in the Central Texas market, as well as the ability to further leverage our expense structure through increased scale. See Note 3 for additional information regarding the acquisition. See Note 18 for discussion of an additional acquisition completed subsequent to March 31, 2015. In accordance with ASC 350-20-35, Goodwill — Subsequent Measurement, we test goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life for potential impairment annually, or more frequently when there are events or circumstances that indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. During the six-month period ended March 31, 2015, we evaluated such events and circumstances and concluded that it was not "more likely than not" that a goodwill or intangible asset impairment existed. We will continue to monitor if an interim triggering event is present in subsequent periods, and we will perform our required annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year. See Note 18 for discussion of goodwill and other long-term asset impairment that occurred subsequent to March 31, 2015. The amortization of most definite-lived intangible assets is recorded as amortization expense. The favorable lease asset and other intangibles are amortized to operations expense (rent expense) over the related lease terms. The deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt instruments. The following table presents the amount and classification of amortization recognized as expense in each of the periods presented, without regard for any subsequent impairments of intangible assets:
| Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Six Months Ended March 31,
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
| (in thousands)
Amortization expense in continuing operations | $ | 1,368 |  |  | $ | 1,393 |  |  | $ | 2,825 |  |  | $ | 2,758 |
Amortization expense in discontinued operations | — |  |  | 582 |  |  | — |  |  | 1,157 |
Operations expense | 26 |  |  | 31 |  |  | 52 |  |  | 61 |
Interest expense | 992 |  |  | 1,660 |  |  | 2,625 |  |  | 2,550 |
Total expense from the amortization of definite-lived intangible assets | $ | 2,386 |  |  | $ | 3,666 |  |  | $ | 5,502 |  |  | $ | 6,526 |
The following table presents our estimate of the amount and classification of future amortization expense for definite-lived intangible assets, without regard for any subsequent impairments of intangible assets:
Fiscal Years Ended September 30, |  | Amortization Expense |  | Operations Expense |  | Interest Expense
|  | (in thousands)
2015 |  | $ | 3,356 |  |  | $ | 53 |  |  | $ | 1,854 |
2016 |  | 6,400 |  |  | 106 |  |  | 3,223 |
2017 |  | 6,166 |  |  | 106 |  |  | 2,547 |
2018 |  | 5,209 |  |  | 106 |  |  | 2,391 |
2019 |  | 4,486 |  |  | 78 |  |  | 1,418 |
As acquisitions and dispositions occur in the future, amortization expense may vary from these estimates.
