During fiscal year 2019, the Company impaired the SKAGEN trade name down to the implied fair value of $4.5 million, as a result of a continued decline in performance throughout fiscal year 2019 and a challenging market dynamic that is not expected to improve in the near-term. Concurrent with the impairment testing, the Company determined the trade name would no longer have an indefinite useful life. As a result of the change in estimate, the useful life of the trade name changed from indefinite to definite, and the trade name will be fully amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 6 years. Amortization expense for intangible assets was approximately $7.1 million, $11.9 million and $13.5 million for fiscal years 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Estimated aggregate future amortization expense by fiscal year for intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):
Fiscal Year | Amortization Expense
2020 | $ | 6,833 |
2021 | 3,003 |
2022 | 2,127 |
2023 | 1,085 |
2024 | 1,068 |
Thereafter | 1,448 |
