Intangible asset amortization expense was $57 million and $48 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $165 million and $136 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
In the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, we recognized impairment charges of $17 million and $31 million, respectively, related to developed-technology intangible assets due to declines in market expectations for the related products. The fair values of the intangible assets were measured using a discounted cash flow approach and the charges are classified within cost of sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. We consider the fair values of the assets to be Level 3 measurements due to the significant estimates and assumptions we used in establishing the estimated fair values.
