Approximately $923,000 of the gross carrying amount of intangible assets, primarily in proprietary rights, are related to technology development projects that have not yet been completed. As a result, these intangible assets are not currently being amortized. On January 31, 2023, the Company completed an annual review of amortizable intangible assets. Based on a review of qualitative factors, it was determined that there were no events or changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying value of amortizable intangible assets was not recoverable. During the six months ended July 31, 2023, there have been no substantive indicators of impairment. Aggregate amortization expense was $522,000 and $427,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of July 31, 2023, future estimated amortization expense related to amortizable intangible assets was estimated to be:
