The Company performed its annual impairment review of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. As a result of this review, the Company determined that the estimated fair value of all reporting units exceeded carrying value. Due to challenging market conditions affecting the Graphics Imaging reporting unit within the SGK Brand Solutions segment and the estimated fair value of this reporting unit exceeding its carrying value by approximately 10%, the Company provided additional disclosure in its Form 10-Q for the second and third quarters of fiscal 2019 indicating that further deterioration of conditions could result in a future goodwill write-down for this reporting unit. In consideration of continued challenging market conditions affecting the SGK Brand Solutions segment throughout the remainder of fiscal 2019, the Company initiated an in-depth review of the commercial and cost structure of the segment during the fourth quarter. This review identified certain opportunities to improve the segment’s profitability and reduce its operating cost structure and, as a result, the Company revised its estimates of future earnings and cash flows for the Graphics Imaging reporting unit. In response to these revised projections, the Company re-evaluated the goodwill for the Graphics Imaging reporting unit, as of September 1, 2019. As a result of this interim assessment, the Company recorded a goodwill write-down of $77,572 during the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter. Subsequent to this write-down, the fair value of the Graphics Imaging reporting unit approximates carrying value at September 30, 2019. The fair value for this reporting unit was determined using level 3 inputs (including estimates of revenue growth, EBITDA contribution and the discount rate) and a combination of the income approach using the estimated discounted cash flows and a market-based valuation methodology. If current projections are not achieved or specific valuation factors outside the Company’s control (such as discount rates) significantly change, additional goodwill write-downs may be necessary in future periods. In fiscal 2019, the additions to SGK Brand Solutions goodwill reflects the acquisition of Frost. The changes in Memorialization goodwill primarily reflect small acquisitions and divestitures completed in fiscal 2019. In fiscal 2018, the additions to SGK Brand Solutions goodwill reflects several smaller acquisitions. The additions to Memorialization goodwill reflects the acquisitions of Star Granite and several additional smaller acquisitions. The addition to Industrial Technologies goodwill reflects the acquisition of Compass. 21.

The net change in intangible assets during fiscal 2019 included the impact of foreign currency fluctuations during the period, additional amortization, additions related to the Frost acquisition, and reductions from the divestiture of a Memorialization business. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company reassessed its trade name strategy for the SGK Brand Solutions segment, in conjunction with an overall assessment and shift of its commercial structure and strategy for this segment, and initiated a plan to reduce its global trade names for its core brand solutions businesses. As a result of this change, the Company has begun to discontinue the use of certain trade names within the SGK Brand Solutions segment. Accordingly, the remaining useful lives of the impacted trade names have been reduced to three years, reflecting the Company’s brand migration plans and an estimated time period when the discontinued trade names will be classified as defensive assets. Amortization expense on intangible assets was $45,756, $31,562, and $23,313 in fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Fiscal year amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $71,500 in 2020, $60,100 in 2021, $46,700 in 2022, $27,800 in 2023 and $26,200 in 2024.
