[1] | Restaurant-level impairment charges are recorded in Closures and impairment (income) expenses and resulted primarily from our semi-annual impairment evaluation of long-lived assets of individual restaurants that were being operated at the time of impairment and had not been offered for refranchising. The fair value measurements used in these impairment evaluations were based on discounted cash flow estimates using unobservable inputs (Level 3).
[2] | During 2016, we made the decision to dispose of a corporate aircraft. The loss associated with this then planned sale reflected the shortfall of the expected proceeds, less any selling costs, over the carrying value of the aircraft. The expected proceeds were based on actual bids received from potential buyers for similar assets (Level 2).
[3] | We estimated the fair value of the YUM and Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes, Term Loan A Facility, and Term Loan B Facility using market quotes and calculations based on market rates.
[4] | We estimated the fair value of the Securitization Notes by obtaining broker quotes from two separate brokerage firms that are knowledgeable about the Company’s Securitization Notes and, at times, trade these notes. The markets in which the Securitization Notes trade are not considered active markets.
