Goodwill

Goodwill allocated to our reportable segments and changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended November 2, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):

	Retail			Corporate Apparel		Total
Balance at February 2, 2013	$	59,995		$	27,840	$	87,835
Goodwill of acquired business	51,108			—		51,108
Impairment charge	(9,501		)	—		(9,501		)
Translation adjustment	(1,213		)	368		(845		)
Balance at November 2, 2013	$	100,389		$	28,208	$	128,597

The goodwill of acquired business resulted from our acquisition of JA Holding. As indicated in Note 3, the preliminary estimates of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the JA Holding acquisition are not yet final and are subject to revisions until management’s appraisals and estimates are finalized, including goodwill, which may result in adjustments to the preliminary values as reported for the retail reportable segment at November 2, 2013.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually as of our fiscal year end. A more frequent evaluation is performed if events or circumstances indicate that impairment could have occurred. During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, based on estimates provided to us by market participants during our review of strategic alternatives for the K&G brand, we concluded that the carrying value of the K&G brand exceeded its fair value. Based on further analysis, it was determined that the entire carrying value of K&G’s goodwill was impaired, resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $9.5 million.

Intangible Assets

The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of our identifiable intangible assets are as follows (in thousands):

	November 2, 2013			October 27, 2012			February 2, 2013

Amortizable intangible assets:
Carrying amount:
Trademarks, tradenames, and other intangibles	$	14,288		$	12,503		$	14,502
Customer relationships	32,543			32,893			32,098
Total carrying amount	46,831			45,396			46,600

Trademarks, tradenames, and other intangibles	(8,882		)	(8,518		)	(8,663		)
Customer relationships	(8,898		)	(6,173		)	(6,751		)
Total accumulated amortization	(17,780		)	(14,691		)	(15,414		)
Total amortizable intangible assets, net	29,051			30,705			31,186
Indefinite-lived intangible assets:

The increase in indefinite-lived intangible assets at November 2, 2013 relates to the Joseph Abboud tradename acquired in our acquisition of JA Holding. See Note 3 for additional details.

The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization totaled approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended November 2, 2013 and October 27, 2012, respectively. The pretax amortization expense associated with intangible assets subject to amortization totaled approximately $2.5 million and $2.4 million for the nine months ended November 2, 2013 and October 27, 2012, respectively, and approximately $3.3 million for the year ended February 2, 2013. Pretax amortization associated with intangible assets subject to amortization at November 2, 2013 is estimated to be $0.9 million for the remainder of fiscal year 2013, $3.3 million for fiscal year 2014, $3.2 million for each of the fiscal years 2015 and 2016 and $3.1 million for fiscal year 2017.
