From time-to-time, the Company may acquire certain retail locations from its licensees which may result in the recognition of goodwill or other intangible assets. During fiscal 2017, the Company recognized goodwill of approximately $0.9 million related to the acquisition of 12 retail locations from five of its Asian licensees. During fiscal 2016, the Company recognized goodwill of approximately $0.3 million related to the acquisition of a retail location from one of its European licensees.

Other intangible assets as of January 28, 2017 consisted primarily of lease and license acquisition costs related to European acquisitions. Gross intangible assets were $29.7 million and $29.6 million as of January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively. The accumulated amortization of intangible assets with finite useful lives was $23.2 million and $22.3 million for the years ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016, respectively.
