GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
We have
two
operating segments which are also our reporting units: Thermal and EMS. Goodwill and intangible assets on our balance sheets are the result of our acquisitions of Sigma Systems Corp. ("Sigma") in
October 2008,
Thermonics, Inc. ("Thermonics") in
January 2012
and Ambrell in
May 2017.
All our goodwill and intangible assets are allocated to our Thermal segment.

We generally amortize our finite-lived intangible assets over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis, unless an alternate amortization method can be reliably determined. Any such alternate amortization method would be based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are expected to be consumed.
None
of our intangible assets have any residual value.
 
Total amortization expense for our finite-lived intangible assets was
$304
and
$311,
respectively, for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2021
and
2020.
The following table sets forth the estimated annual amortization expense for each of the next
five
