The net goodwill balances at September 30, 2025 and 2024 included $45,673 and $277,913 of accumulated impairment losses, respectively. Accumulated impairment losses at September 30, 2025 were $5,000 and $40,673 for the Memorialization and Industrial Technologies segments, respectively. Accumulated impairment losses at September 30, 2024 were $5,000, $40,673, and $232,240 for the Memorialization, Industrial Technologies and Brand Solutions segments, respectively. Fiscal 2025: In fiscal 2025, the additions reflect the acquisitions of The Dodge Company and another small business within the Memorialization segment. The Company performed its annual quantitative impairment review of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 (January 1, 2025) and determined that the estimated fair values for all goodwill reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying values, and, therefore, no impairment charges were necessary at such time. Fiscal 2024: In fiscal 2024, the additions reflect the acquisition of a small business within the Memorialization segment. The Company's Surfaces and Engineering reporting unit experienced declines during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily related to the Company's recently acquired (August 2022) Olbrich GmbH business. The Company determined that a triggering event occurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, resulting in a re-evaluation of the goodwill for the Surfaces and Engineering reporting unit as of September 1, 2024. As a result of this interim assessment, the Company recorded a goodwill write-down totaling $16,727 during the fiscal 2024 fourth quarter, reducing the amount of goodwill for this reporting unit to zero. The fair value for the reporting unit was determined using level 3 inputs (including estimates of revenue growth, EBITDA contribution and the discount rates) and the income approach valuation methodology which utilizes estimated discounted cash flows of the reporting unit. Fiscal 2023: In fiscal 2023, the additions reflect the acquisition of Eagle Granite Company within the Memorialization segment, the purchase of the remaining ownership interest in an Industrial Technologies subsidiary, and small acquisitions within the Brand Solutions segment. The following tables summarize the carrying amounts and related accumulated amortization for intangible assets as of September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The net change in intangible assets during fiscal 2025 primarily reflected the sale of the Company's interest in the SGK Business, additions related to the Dodge acquisition, the impact of foreign currency fluctuations during the period, and additional amortization. Amortization expense on intangible assets was $20,069, $37,023, and $42,068 in fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The fiscal 2025 decrease in intangible amortization reflected certain intangible assets reaching the end of their amortizable lives, and lower amortization following the Company's divestiture of its interest in the SGK Business. Fiscal year amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $9,497 in 2026, $8,597 in 2027, $6,702 in 2028, $5,782 in 2029 and $5,314 in 2030.
