Restructuring Costs and Asset Impairment Charges [Abstract] |
Other Charges - Operating Expenses | Other Charges - Operating Expenses. Sale of Stores. During the third quarter, we incurred pre-tax losses of $4.9 million on the sale of 22 Core U.S. stores to a franchisee and $0.3 million on the sale of 14 Core U.S. stores in Canada. We also incurred pre-tax losses of $0.3 million and $0.9 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively, on the sale of 6 stores during the second quarter and three stores during the third quarter. Core U.S. Store Consolidation Plans. During the third quarter of 2015, we closed 65 Core U.S. stores and merged those accounts into existing Core U.S. stores, resulting in a pre-tax restructuring charge of $4.3 million. This charge included approximately $1.2 million of accelerated depreciation expense for fixed assets, leasehold improvements and write-off of merchandise inventory, $2.7 million in early lease termination costs and $0.3 million of other operating costs to decommission the stores. During the second quarter of 2014, we closed 150 Core U.S. stores and merged those accounts into existing Core U.S. stores, resulting in a pre-tax restructuring charge of $0.4 million and $4.8 million during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014. This included approximately $3.2 million of accelerated depreciation expense for fixed assets, leasehold improvements and write-off of merchandise inventory, $1.3 million in early lease termination costs and $0.3 million of other operating costs to decommission the stores. Mexico Store Consolidation Plan. During 2015, we closed 34 stores in Mexico and merged those accounts into existing Mexico stores. These store closures resulted in pre-tax restructuring charges of $0 and $3.1 million in the Mexico segment for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, for disposal of fixed assets and leasehold improvements and other charges to decommission the stores. Sourcing and Distribution Network Startup Costs. As part of our transformational sourcing and distribution initiative, we entered into an agreement with a third-party logistics partner. As a result, we incurred one-time costs to set up new warehousing facilities and distribution routes in the second quarter and we incurred other charges in the third quarter to close existing warehouse space and terminate employees. The pre-tax charges for these items were approximately $1.2 million and $2.8 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, respectively, reflected in the Core U.S. segment.
