(a)Non-amortizing intangible assets represent brands and trademarks.

(b)Amortizing intangible assets are principally composed of licensing agreements, brands, and customer relationships. Amortization expense was $2.5 million, $2.2 million, and $2.4 million in fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively.

Foreign intangible assets are affected by foreign currency translation. Based on current intangibles subject to amortization, we expect intangible asset amortization expense will be approximately $2.6 million in fiscal 2021 and 2022 and $2.5 million, $2.0 million, and $1.7 million in fiscal 2023, 2024, and 2025, respectively, and approximately $9.0 million thereafter.

Impairment Testing

We test goodwill and non-amortizing intangible assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or sooner if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may exceed fair value. Additionally, when we experience changes to our business or operating environment, we evaluate the remaining useful lives of our finite-lived purchased intangible assets to determine whether any adjustments to the useful lives are necessary.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our operations, we performed a quantitative analysis to test our goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2020. Based on the results of the quantitative impairment test, we determined that the fair values for total company and each of our Global, Foodservice, Retail, and Other reporting units exceeded the carrying value and therefore, no goodwill impairment existed. Additionally, we completed our tests of our non-amortizing intangibles in the fourth quarter and there was no indication of intangible asset impairment.
