A combined total of $2.9 million as of February 29, 2020 relates to LoJack US SVR Products, which is included within Non-current assets of discontinued operations shown separately in our consolidated balance sheet. The balance was fully impaired as of February 28, 2021.

 

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period to be benefited by future cash flows. We monitor and assess these assets for impairment on a periodic basis. Our assessment includes various new product lines and services, which leverage the existing intangible assets as well as consideration of historical and projected revenues and cash flows. In both fiscal 2021 and 2020, we determined that the prolonged secular decline in legacy LoJack US SVR products revenue coupled with the slower than anticipated market penetration of our telematics solutions in the U.S. automotive dealership channel represented determinate indications of impairment. As a result, we performed an assessment of the carrying amount of the related intangible assets supporting these products including the LoJack tradename and dealer and customer relationships. Our assessment of the future cash flows generated by these assets concluded that an impairment loss was present. For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, we recorded an impairment loss aggregating $1.5 million, which was attributable to $1.0 million of US Dealer relationships and $0.5 million of developed technology. For the fiscal year ended February 29, 2020, we recorded an impairment loss aggregating $17.7 million, which was attributable to $11.5 million of the LoJack Tradename and $6.2 million of US Dealer relationships. $1.5 million and $12.0 million of these impairment losses are included within Net loss from discontinued operations for fiscal years ended February 28/29, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

Amortization expense of intangible assets from continuing operations was $4.8 million, $5.9 million and $3.9 million in fiscal years ended, February 28/29, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
