Intangible asset amortization expense was $222 million in 2020, $183 million in 2019, and $169 million in 2018. The anticipated annual amortization expense for definite-lived intangible assets recorded as of December 31, 2020 is $231 million in 2021, $227 million in 2022, $212 million in 2023, $189 million in 2024 and $155 million in 2025.
In the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, we recognized impairment charges of $17 million and $31 million, respectively, related to developed-technology intangible assets due to declines in market expectations for the related products. The fair values of the intangible assets were measured using a discounted cash flow approach
and the charges are classified within cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. We consider the fair values of the assets to be Level 3 measurements due to the significant estimates and assumptions we used in establishing the estimated fair values.
