Depreciation expense was $21.3 and $64.2 for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, respectively, and $21.0 and $62.2 for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded an impairment of $4.0 for a business within the IP segment due to challenging economic conditions in the upstream oil and gas market combined with impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Long-lived assets of the business, with a carrying value of $14.0, primarily building and improvements, machinery and equipment, were reduced to their current estimated fair value of $10.0. The estimate of fair value, categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, was determined based on a market approach estimating the net proceeds that would be received for the sale of the assets. Significant additional adverse changes to the economic environment or future cash flows of our businesses could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which may be material.
