The intangible assets were identified and valued by the Company. The original estimated useful lives of the acquired identifiable intangible assets are as follows:


Non-compete agreements		4 to 5 years
Customer relationships		4 to 6 years
Capitalized product development costs		3 years

Intangible assets are amortized assuming no expected residual value over the periods in which the economic benefit of these assets is consumed. Customer relationships are amortized on an accelerated method based on the proportional relationship of projected future discounted cash flows. The weighted average amortization period for all intangible assets subject to amortization was 4.4 years, 5.4 years and 0.5 years as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Amortization expense related to all intangible assets was $3.4 million, $899 thousand and $302 thousand in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Amortization of $188 thousand, $191 thousand and $214 thousand related to capitalized software development costs were included within cost of revenue (specifically within software expense) on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Estimated annual amortization expense for the next five years ending December 31, which encompasses the remaining useful life of the intangible assets, is as follows:

2017	$	2,804
2018		2,240
