Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, the accounting standards establish a three level hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:
Level 1 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – inputs are unobservable and reflect our own assumptions.
Non-Financial Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis
We review the carrying amounts of property and equipment, reacquired franchise rights and transferable liquor licenses semi-annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the fair value may not exceed the carrying amount. We record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. All impairment charges were included in Other (gains) and charges in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the periods presented.
During the thirteen week period ended March 27, 2019, no indicators of impairment existed. During the thirty-nine week period ended March 27, 2019, based on our second quarter impairment review, we impaired long-lived assets with carrying values of $1.0 million primarily related to two underperforming Chili’s restaurants. We determined the leasehold improvements and other assets associated with the impaired restaurants had no fair value, based on Level 3 fair value measurements.
During the thirty-nine week period ended March 28, 2018, based on our second quarter semi-annual review, we impaired long-lived assets with carrying values of $2.3 million, primarily related to one underperforming Maggiano’s restaurant
and one underperforming Chili’s restaurant which will continue to operate. We determined the leasehold improvements associated with the impaired restaurants had a fair value of $0.3 million, based on Level 3 fair value measurements, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.0 million. Additionally during the first quarter of fiscal 2018, we impaired long-lived assets and reacquired franchise rights with carrying values of $6.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively, primarily related to nine underperforming Chili’s restaurants located in Alberta, Canada which were identified for closure by management. We determined the leasehold improvements and other assets associated with these restaurants had no fair value, based on Level 3 fair value measurements, resulting in an impairment charge of $7.2 million. The restaurant assets were assigned a zero fair value as the decision to close the restaurants in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 resulted in substantially all of the assets reverting to the landlords. Please see Note 6 - Other Gains and Charges for further details.
We determine the fair value of transferable liquor licenses based on prices in the open market for licenses in the same or similar jurisdictions. During the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended March 27, 2019 and March 28, 2018, no indicators of impairment were identified.
Intangibles, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets includes indefinite-lived intangible assets such as the transferable liquor licenses and definite-lived intangible assets that include reacquired franchise rights and other items such as trademarks. Intangibles, net includes accumulated amortization associated with definite-lived intangible assets at March 27, 2019 and June 27, 2018, of $6.7 million and $5.7 million, respectively.
Goodwill
We review the carrying amounts of goodwill annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the implied fair value of the goodwill. During the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended March 27, 2019 and March 28, 2018, no indicators of impairment were identified.
Other Financial Instruments
Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts because of the short maturity of these items. The carrying amount of debt outstanding related to the amended revolving credit facility approximates fair value as the interest rate on this instrument approximates current market rates (Level 2). The fair values of the 3.88% and 5.00% notes are based on quoted market prices and are considered Level 2 fair value measurements.
The carrying amounts, which are net of unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts, and fair values of the 3.88% notes and 5.00% notes are as follows. Please see further details at Note 8 - Debt:

During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, we received an $18.0 million long-term note receivable as consideration related to the sale of our equity interest in the Chili’s joint venture in Mexico. We determined the fair value of this note based on an internally developed analysis relying on Level 3 inputs at inception. This analysis was based on a credit rating we assigned to the counterparty and comparable interest rates associated with similar debt instruments observed in the market. As a result of the initial analysis, we determined the fair value of this note was approximately $16.0 million and recorded this fair value as its initial carrying value. We believe the fair value of the note receivable continues to approximate the carrying value, which at March 27, 2019 was $11.8 million. The current portion of the note, which represents the cash payments to be received over the next 12 months, is included within Accounts receivable, net while the long-term portion of the note is included within Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Please refer to Note 6 - Other Gains and Charges for further details about this note receivable.
Additionally, we have recorded certain lease obligations related to the previously divested Romano’s Macaroni Grill restaurants. These lease obligations are based on Level 3 fair value measurements based on an estimate of the obligation associated with the lease locations, stated rent and other factors such as ability and probability of the landlord to mitigate damages by leasing to new tenants. Please refer to Note 13 - Contingencies for further details.
