Definite-lived intangible assets

The table below summarizes amortizable definite-lived intangible assets, which are reflected in "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

	September 27, 2025						December 28, 2024
	Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Net		Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Net

Net definite-lived intangible assets	$	346.1	$	233.4	$	112.7	$	346.9	$	213.9	$	133.1

Amortization expense is reflected in "Selling and administrative expenses" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and was as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 27, 2025		September 28, 2024		September 27, 2025		September 28, 2024
Capitalized software	$	4.5	$	5.1	$	13.9	$	15.5
Other definite-lived intangibles	$	2.6	$	2.6	$	7.8	$	7.9

The occurrence of events such as acquisitions, dispositions, or impairments may impact future amortization expense. Without giving effect to the Steelcase Acquisition described in "Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures," over the next several years, amortization expense is expected to decline due primarily to the completion of the amortization of the Corporation's Business Systems Transformation investment. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for the remainder of 2025 and each of the following four years is as follows:

	2025		2026		2027		2028		2029
Amortization expense	$	6.9	$	23.8	$	17.5	$	9.1	$	8.9

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

The Corporation also owns certain intangible assets, which are deemed to have indefinite useful lives because they are expected to generate cash flows indefinitely. These indefinite-lived intangible assets are reflected in "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

	September 27, 2025		December 28, 2024
Trademarks and trade names	$	49.1	$	49.1

Impairment Analysis

The Corporation evaluates its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. The Corporation also evaluates long-lived assets (which include definite-lived intangible assets) for impairment if indicators exist. No impairment triggers were identified that warranted further impairment analysis in the current period.
