We recorded cost of sales - amortization of intangible assets related to capitalized milestone and sublicense payments to Merck, GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals SA (“GSK”) and Coley Pharmaceutical Group, Inc. (“Coley”) that we capitalized upon or after FDA approval of HEPLISAV-B in November 2017. See Note 10. In 2019, cost of sales – amortization of intangible assets of $9.2 million was related to capitalized Merck payments. In 2018, cost of sales – amortization of intangible assets of $8.1 million, $1.5 million and $1.3 million, were related to capitalized Merck, GSK and Coley payments, respectively. In 2017, cost of sales – amortization of intangible assets of $1.2 million was related to capitalized Coley payment.

At December 31, 2018, intangible assets related to GSK and Coley have been fully-amortized. The remaining intangible asset related to Merck will be fully amortized by April 2020. No impairment of intangible assets has been identified during the years presented.
