Amortization expense associated with definite-lived intangible assets was $18.5 million and $17.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $56.2 million and $53.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Future amortization expense associated with these intangible assets is estimated to be $18.0 million for the remainder of 2020, $72.3 million in 2021, $67.2 million in 2022, $62.3 million in 2023, $57.0 million in 2024, and $52.4 million in 2025. The Company amortizes intangible assets with definite lives using either an accelerated method that reflects the pattern in which economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed and results in higher amortization in the earlier years of the assets useful life, or using a straight line method. Approximately 75% of the gross value of definite-lived intangible assets follow an accelerated amortization method.
