Amortization expense of intangible assets was $5.5 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Companys weighted-average amortization period is six years for developed and core technology, is five years for customer relationships, vendor relationships, trade names, and covenants not to compete, and is ten years for patents. The amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets as of March 31, 2010 is expected to be $17.3 million for the remainder of 2010, $21.2 million, $18.3 million, $15.7 million, and $8.4 million for the years ending December 31, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014, respectively, and $10.3 million for the years thereafter.
The increase of $31.0 million in the gross carrying amount of developed and core technology was primarily due to the intangibles of $21.3 million and $9.8 million acquired from Siperian and 29West, respectively. The increase of $2.1 million in the gross carrying amount of customer relationships was primarily due to the intangibles of $1.6 million and $0.6 million acquired from Siperian and 29West, respectively. See Note 15. Acquisitions,of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion. In addition, $2.3 million of developed and core technology, and $3.7 million of customer relationships at March 31, 2010, related to the Identity Systems and PowerData acquisitions, were recorded in European local currencies; therefore, the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization are subject to periodic translation adjustments.
Subsequent to adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) on January 1, 2009, Business Combinations (ASC 805), the Company has acquired certain customer relationships for approximately $13.3 million from Applimation, AddressDoctor, Agent Logic, Siperian, and 29West acquisitions, which consist of software maintenance agreements. These renewable agreements are usually for a duration of one year and renewable afterward. The costs of renewal of these contracts are reflected in the cost of service revenues.
In the first quarter of 2010, in conjunction with our acquisition of Siperian, we recorded in-process research and development (IPR |
