The carrying amount of goodwill as of April 27, 2012 increased from the end of fiscal year 2011 by $6,183 to $1,064,189. The increase is due to foreign currency translation.

 

Total intangible asset amortization expense for the six months ended April 27, 2012 was $3,306, compared to $3,723 for the same period last year. Estimated amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years based on the intangible assets as of April 27, 2012 is expected to be approximately $7,000 annually.
