Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company changed the presentation of its segments in the third quarter of 2020 into the following seven reportable segments: Kaplan International, Higher Education, Test Preparation, Professional (U.S.), Television Broadcasting, Manufacturing and Healthcare (see Note 16).
In the first quarter of 2020, as a result of the uncertainty and challenging operating environment created by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company performed an interim review of the goodwill, indefinite-lived intangibles and other long-lived assets of the CRG and automotive dealership reporting units and asset groups. As a result of the impairment reviews, the Company recorded a $9.7 million goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charge at CRG and a $6.7 million indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charge at the auto dealerships. The Company estimated the fair value of the reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets by utilizing a discounted cash flow model. The carrying value of the CRG reporting unit and the indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded the estimated fair value, resulting in a goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value. CRG and the automotive dealerships are included in other businesses. Additional COVID-19 disruptions could result in future adverse changes in projections for future operating results or other key assumptions, such as projected revenue, profit margin, capital expenditures or cash flows associated with fair value estimates and could lead to additional future impairments, which could be material.
Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, was $14.2 million and $13.6 million, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, was $42.6 million and $39.5 million, respectively. Amortization of intangible assets is estimated to be approximately $14 million for the remainder of 2020, $52 million in 2021, $46 million in 2022, $37 million in 2023, $28 million in 2024 and $41 million thereafter.
