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. The net goodwill balances at September 30, 2020 and 2019 included $178,732 and $88,324 of accumulated impairment losses, respectively. Accumulated impairment losses at September 30, 2020 were $173,732 and $5,000 for the SGK Brand Solutions and Memorialization segments, respectively. Accumulated impairment losses at September 30, 2019 were $83,324 and $5,000 for the SGK Brand Solutions and Memorialization segments, respectively. The Company performed its annual impairment review of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 (January 1, 2020) and determined that the estimated fair values for all goodwill reporting units exceeded their carrying values. The estimated fair values for two reporting units within the SGK Brand Solutions segment (Graphics Imaging and Cylinders, Surfaces and Engineered Products) exceeded their carrying values (expressed as a percentage of carrying value) by less than 10% as of January 1, 2020. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared an outbreak of COVID-19 to be a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, and subsequently recognized COVID-19 as a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. Widespread efforts have been deployed by multiple countries around the world to prevent the virus from spreading, including temporary closures of non-essential businesses, event cancellations, travel restrictions, quarantines, and other disruptive actions. Substantially all of the Company’s operations have remained open during the COVID-19 pandemic, as they have been considered “essential” businesses during this time. However, the Company has experienced some commercial impact and business disruptions in certain segments and geographic locations as a result of COVID-19. In its assessment of the potential impacts of COVID-19 on the estimated future earnings and cash flows for the SGK Brand Solutions segment, and in light of the limited excess fair values for its two reporting units (discussed above), management determined that COVID-19 represented a triggering event, resulting in a re-evaluation of the goodwill for its reporting units within the SGK Brand Solutions segment (Graphics Imaging and Cylinders, Surfaces and Engineered Products), as of March 31, 2020. As a result of this interim assessment, the Company recorded a goodwill write-down totaling $90,408 during the fiscal 2020 second quarter. Subsequent to this write-down, the fair values of the two reporting units within the SGK Brand Solutions segment (Graphics Imaging and Cylinders, Surfaces and Engineered Products) approximated their carrying values at March 31, 2020. The fair values for these reporting units were determined using level 3 inputs (including estimates of revenue growth, EBITDA contribution and the discount rates) 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 and continued economic and industry impacts of COVID-19) significantly change, additional goodwill write-downs may be necessary in future periods. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company initiated an in-depth review of the commercial and cost structure of the SGK Brand Solutions segment as a result of continued challenging market conditions affecting the segment. 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 $77.6 million during the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter. The following tables summarize the carrying amounts and related accumulated amortization for intangible assets as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The net change in intangible assets during fiscal 2020 included a small acquisition, the impact of foreign currency fluctuations during the period, and additional amortization. During 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 reflect 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 $71,514, $45,756, and $31,562 in fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Fiscal year amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $60,448 in 2021, $47,046 in 2022, $28,165 in 2023, $26,458 in 2024 and $24,472 in 2025.
