The Company started transitioning its data center to a third party managed data center during the year ended July 31, 2013. The Company reviewed the useful life of certain assets related to its data centers and determined they should be revised from an average of 60 months to an average of 45 months to reflect the shorter useful lives of these assets. Additionally, facility depreciation related to the Company’s IT operations, currently located in the Company’s offices in Fairfield, CA, was accelerated as the department is relocating to the Dallas, TX corporate headquarters. These changes in estimate are accounted for on a prospective basis, resulting in increased depreciation expense over the revised useful lives. These changes will result in $2.9 million in accelerated depreciation expense to be recorded in fiscal 2014. This change resulted in $7.0 million in additional depreciation for the year ended July 31, 2013.
