Restaurant Impairment and Restaurant Closures
Restaurant Impairment and Restaurant Closures
The Company closed two restaurants during the first quarter 2014 and no restaurants were closed during the second quarter 2014. Both restaurants closed in the first quarter 2014 had been impaired in fiscal year 2013. The Company did not close any restaurants during the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2013. No impairments to restaurants were recorded during the twenty-eight weeks ended July 13, 2014 and July 14, 2013.
The Company evaluates restaurants that are closed and allocates goodwill based on the relative fair value of the disposal restaurants to the Company's reporting unit. Since restaurant operations are typically valued based on cash flow from operations, the Company compares the historical cash flow from the closed restaurants to the cash flow from the reporting unit to determine the relative value. No goodwill was allocated to the restaurants closed during first quarter 2014, because both restaurants had projected negative cash flow and consequently did not have positive fair value.
