Stockholders' Equity Attributable to Parent [Abstract] |
Shareholders' equity | Shareholders' Equity Share Repurchase Our Old Credit Facility (as defined in Note 8) permitted and our New Credit Facility (as defined in Note 8) permits the payment of cash dividends and the purchase of Denny’s stock subject to certain limitations. In April 2013, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to an additional 10.0 million shares of our common stock (in addition to prior authorizations). Under this program, we may, from time to time, purchase shares in the open market (including pre-arranged stock trading plans in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market and business conditions. During the two quarters ended July 1, 2015, we repurchased 1.9 million shares of our common stock for approximately $21.2 million. This brings the total amount repurchased under this program to 8.0 million shares of our common stock for approximately $62.2 million, leaving 2.0 million shares that can be repurchased as of July 1, 2015. On March 31, 2015, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase an additional $100 million of our common stock, in addition to repurchases previously authorized. Such repurchases are to be made in a manner similar to, and will be in addition to, authorizations under the April 2013 repurchase program. Repurchased shares are included as treasury stock in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Shareholders' Equity. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss The components of the change in accumulated other comprehensive loss were as follows:

(1) | Before-tax amount that was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss and included as a component of pension expense within general and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income during the two quarters ended July 1, 2015. See Note 9 for additional details.
(2) | Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income, represent payments made to the counterparty for the effective portions of the interest rate swaps. These amounts are included as a component of interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. We expect to reclassify approximately $1.1 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss related to our interest rate swaps during the next twelve months. See Note 8 for additional details.
