REGIS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Regis Corporation (the "Company") as of December 31, 2018 and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and its consolidated results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods. Adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, except for any discussed in the notes below. The results of operations and cash flows for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results of operations and cash flows for the full year.
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018 and other documents filed or furnished with the SEC during the current fiscal year.
Goodwill:
As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company-owned reporting unit had $166.9 million and $184.8 million of goodwill, respectively, and the Franchise salons reporting unit had $226.9 million and $227.9 million of goodwill, respectively. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company assesses goodwill impairment on an annual basis, during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter, and between annual assessments if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. An interim impairment analysis was not required in the six months ended December 31, 2018.
The Company performs its annual impairment assessment as of April 30. For the fiscal year 2018 annual impairment assessment, due to the transformational efforts completed during the year, the Company elected to forgo the optional Step 0 assessment and performed the quantitative impairment analysis on the Company-owned and Franchise reporting units. The Company compared the carrying value of the reporting units, including goodwill, to their estimated fair value. The results of these assessments indicated that the estimated fair value of our reporting units exceeded their carrying value. The Franchise reporting unit had substantial headroom and the Company-owned reporting unit had headroom of approximately 24%. The fair value of the Company-owned reporting unit was determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis and comparable market multiples. The assumptions used in determining fair value were the number and pace of salons sold to franchisees, proceeds for salon sales, weighted average cost of capital, general and administrative expenses and utilization of net operating loss benefits. We selected the assumptions by considering our historical financial performance and trends, historical salon sale proceeds and estimated salon sale activities. The preparation of our fair value estimate includes uncertain factors and requires significant judgments and estimates which are subject to change. A 100 basis point increase in our weighted average cost of capital within the Company-owned reporting unit would result in a reduction in headroom to approximately 17%.
Other uncertain factors or events exist which may result in a future triggering event and require us to perform an interim impairment analysis with respect to the carrying value of goodwill for the Company-owned reporting unit prior to our annual assessment. These internal and external factors include but are not limited to the following:

• | Changes in the company-owned salon strategy,

• | Franchise expansion and sales opportunities,

• | Future market earnings multiples deterioration,

• | Our financial performance falls short of our projections due to internal operating factors,

• | Economic recession,

• | Reduced salon traffic, as defined by total transactions, and/or revenue,

• | Deterioration of industry trends,

• | Increased competition,

• | Inability to reduce general and administrative expenses as company-owned salon count potentially decreases,

• | Other factors causing our cash flow to deteriorate.

7

If the triggering event analysis indicates the fair value of the Company-owned reporting unit has potentially fallen below more than the 24% headroom, we may be required to perform an updated impairment assessment which may result in a non-cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of goodwill.
Assessing goodwill for impairment requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment, including forecasting future sales and expenses, and selecting appropriate discount rates, which can be affected by economic conditions and other factors that can be difficult to predict. The Company does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the estimates or assumptions it uses to calculate impairment losses of goodwill. However, if actual results are not consistent with the estimates and assumptions used in the calculations, or if there are significant changes to the Company's planned strategy for company-owned salons, the Company may be exposed to future impairment losses that could be material.
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted by the Company:
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the FASB issued amended guidance for revenue recognition which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company retrospectively adopted these standards on July 1, 2018. The impact of these standards was applied to all periods presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard was recognized at the beginning of the earliest period presented. See Note 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the impact of the adoption of the revenue recognition guidance.
Restricted Cash
In November 2016, the FASB issued cash flow guidance requiring restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included in the cash and cash equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows. Transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are no longer presented in the statement of cash flows and a reconciliation between the balance sheet and statement of cash flows must be disclosed. The Company retrospectively adopted this guidance on July 1, 2018. The impact of this standard was applied to all periods presented. As a result of including restricted cash in the beginning and end of period balances, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in the statement of cash flows increased $38.4 million, $23.5 million and $37.6 million as of June 30, 2018, December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
Statement of Cash Flows
In August 2016, the FASB issued updated cash flow guidance clarifying cash flow classification and presentation for certain items. The Company retrospectively adopted this guidance on July 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows.
A ccounting Standards Recently Issued But Not Yet Adopted by the Company:
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance requiring organizations that lease assets to recognize the rights and obligations created by those leases on the consolidated balance sheet. The new standard is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which provides companies with the option to apply the new lease standard either at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or in the period of adoption. The Company will elect this optional transition relief amendment that allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption and will not restate prior periods. The Company is leveraging its lease management system to facilitate the adoption of this standard. The Company is continuing to evaluate the effect the new standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements but expects this adoption will result in a material increase in the assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, as substantially all of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new guidance.

2. REVENUE RECOGNITION:
In May 2014, the FASB issued amended guidance for revenue recognition which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the amended revenue recognition guidance, ASC Topic 606, on July 1, 2018 using the full retrospective transition method which required the adjustment of each prior reporting period presented. The adjusted amounts include the application of a practical expedient that permitted the Company to reflect the aggregate effect of all modifications that occurred prior to fiscal year 2017 when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligation, determining the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligation. As a result of adopting this new standard the Company is providing its updated revenue recognition policies.
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue:
Revenue recognized at point of sale
Company-owned salon revenues are recognized at the time when the services are provided. Product revenues are recognized when the guest receives and pays for the merchandise. Revenues from purchases made with gift cards are also recorded when the guest takes possession of the merchandise or services are provided. Gift cards issued by the Company are recorded as a liability (deferred revenue) upon sale and recognized as revenue upon redemption by the customer. Gift card breakage, the amount of gift cards which will not be redeemed, is recognized proportional to redemptions using estimates based on historical redemption patterns. Product sales by the Company to its franchisees are included within product revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and recorded at the time product is delivered to the franchisee. Payment for franchisee product revenue is generally collected within 30 days of delivery.
Revenue recognized over time
Franchise revenues primarily include royalties, advertising fund fees, franchise fees and other fees. Royalty and advertising fund revenues represent sales-based royalties that are recognized in the period in which the sales occur. Generally, royalty and advertising fund revenue is billed and collected monthly in arrears. Advertising fund revenues and expenditures, which must be spent on marketing and related activities per the franchise agreement, are recorded on a gross basis within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. This increases both the gross amount of reported franchise revenue and site operating expense and generally has no impact on operating income and net income. Franchise fees are billed and received upon the signing of the franchise agreement. Upon adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance, recognition of these fees is deferred until the salon opening and is then recognized over the term of the franchise agreement, typically ten years. Under previous guidance the initial franchise fees were recognized in full upon salon opening.
The following table disaggregates revenue by timing of revenue recognition and is reconciled to reportable segment revenues as follows:

Receivables relate primarily to payments due for royalties, franchise fees, advertising fees, and sales of salon services and product. The receivable balance is presented net of an allowance for expected losses (i.e., doubtful accounts), primarily related to receivables from franchisees. As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts was $2.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Activity in the period was not significant. Broker fees are the costs associated with using external brokers to identify new franchisees. These fees are paid upon the signing of the franchise agreement and recognized as General and Administrative expense over the term of the agreement. The adoption of the amended revenue recognition guidance did not significantly change the Company's accounting for broker fees.
The following table is a rollforward of the broker fee balance for the periods indicated (in thousands):

3. | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

In October 2017, the Company sold substantially all of its mall-based salon business in North America, representing 858 salons, and substantially all of its International segment, representing approximately 250 salons in the UK, to The Bea utiful Group ("TBG"), an affiliate of Regent, a private equity firm based in Los Angeles, California, who operates these locations as franchise locations.
As part of the sale of the mall-based business, TBG agreed to pay for the value of certain inventory, prepaid rent and assumed specific liabilities, including lease liabilities. In March 2018, the Company entered into discussions with TBG regarding a waiver of working capital and prepaid rent payments associated with the original transaction and the financing of certain receivables to assist TBG with its cash flow and operational needs. Based on the status of these discussions as of March 31, 2018, the Company fully reserved for the working capital and prepaid rent amount of $11.7 million. In August 2018, the Company entered into promissory notes for approximately $11.7 million in working capital receivables and $8.0 million in accounts receivables, a majority of which was for inventory purchases. All notes have a maturity date of August 2, 2020. Under the working capital notes, if no default has occurred under such notes and certain other conditions are met, such notes will be forgiven as of the maturity date and will be exchanged for a three-year contingent payment right that is payable to us upon the occurrence of certain TBG monetization events. Should the Company need to record reserves against its current and future receivables from TBG these reserves would be recorded within general and administrative expenses.
For the International segment, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with TBG for minimal consideration.
The Company classified the results of its mall-based business and its International segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In connection with the sale of the mall-based business and the International segment, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the asset groups. The Company recognized net impairment charges within discontinued operations based on the difference between the expected sale prices and the carrying value of the asset groups.
The following summarizes the results of our discontinued operations for the periods presented:

| For the Three Months Ended December 31, |  | For the Six Months Ended December 31,
| 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
| (Dollars in thousands) |  | (Dollars in thousands)
Revenues | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7,773 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 101,140 |
Loss from discontinued operations, before income taxes | (750 | ) |  | (10,073 | ) |  | (1,086 | ) |  | (43,840 | )
Income tax benefit on discontinued operations | 6,863 |  |  | 3,472 |  |  | 6,935 |  |  | 3,472 |
Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes | $ | 6,113 |  |  | $ | (6,601 | ) |  | $ | 5,849 |  |  | $ | (40,368 | )

For the three months ended December 31, 2018, the $6.1 million income from discontinued operations includes $6.9 million of income tax benefits recognized in the quarter with respect to the wind-down of the transaction, partly offset by $0.8 million of actuarial insurance accrual adjustments associated with the transaction. For the six months ended December 31, 2018, the $5.8 million income from discontinued operations includes $6.9 million of income tax benefits associated with the wind-down and transfer of legal entities related to discontinued operations, partly offset by professional fees and actuarial insurance accrual adjustments associated with the transaction.
For the three months ended December 31, 2017, included within the $6.6 million loss from discontinued operations were $4.8 million of asset impairment charges, $1.1 million of loss from operations and $4.2 million of professional fees associated with the transaction, partly offset by a $3.5 million income tax benefit generated due to federal tax legislation enacted during the three months ended December 31, 2017. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, included within the $40.4 million loss from discontinued operations were $29.1 million of asset impairment charges, $6.2 million of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment associated with the Company's liquidation of substantially all foreign entities with British pound denominated currencies, $2.8 million of loss from operations and $5.8 million of professional fees associated with the transaction, partly offset by a $3.5 million income tax benefit.
Other than the items presented in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, there were no other significant non-cash operating activities or any significant non-cash investing activities related to discontinued operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

The Company utilized the consolidation of variable interest entities guidance to determine whether or not TBG was a variable interest entity (VIE), and if so, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of TBG. As of December 31, 2018, the Company concluded that TBG is a VIE, based on the fact that the equity investment at risk in TBG is not sufficient. The Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of TBG based on its exposure to the expected losses of TBG and as it is not the variable interest holder that is most closely associated within the relationship and the significance of the activities of TBG. The exposure to loss related to the Company's involvement with TBG is the carrying value of the amounts due from TBG of $16.4 million as of December 31, 2018 and the guarantee of the operating leases.

4. | EARNINGS PER SHARE:

The Company’s basic earnings per share is calculated as net income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding, excluding unvested outstanding RSAs, RSUs and PSUs. The Company’s diluted earnings per share is calculated as net income divided by weighted average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding, which includes shares issued under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans. Stock-based awards with exercise prices greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.
For the three months ended December 31, 2018, 859,598 common stock equivalents of dilutive common stock were included in the diluted earnings per share calculations due to the net income from continuing operations. For the six months ended December 31, 2018, 903,107 common stock equivalents of dilutive common stock were excluded in the diluted earnings per share calculations due to the net loss from continuing operations. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, 492,889 and 334,062, respectively, common stock equivalents of dilutive common stock were included in the diluted earnings per share calculations due to the net income from continuing operations.
The computation of weighted average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, excluded 734,526 and 2,373,110 of stock-based awards during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and 520,348 and 1,199,042 of stock-based awards during the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, as they were not dilutive under the treasury stock method.

5. | SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY:

Stock-Based Employee Compensation:
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company granted various equity awards including restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs).
A summary of equity awards granted is as follows:

|  | For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2018 |  | For the Six Months Ended December 31, 2018
Restricted stock units |  | 1,437 |  |  | 338,859 |
Performance-based restricted stock units |  | 3,506 |  |  | 733,688 |

The RSUs granted to employees vest in equal amounts over a three-year period subsequent to the grant date, cliff vest after a three-year period or cliff vest after a five-year period subsequent to the grant date.
The PSUs granted to employees have a three year performance period ending June 30, 2021 linked to the Company's stock price reaching a specified volume weighted average closing price for a 50 day period that ends on June 30, 2021. The PSUs granted to certain executives include an additional two year service period after the performance period. Of the total PSUs granted, 52,590 PSUs have a maximum vesting percentage of 200% based on the level of performance achieved for the respective award, while the remaining PSUs have a maximum vesting percentage of 100%.
16

Total compensation cost for stock-based payment arrangements totaling $2.2 and $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $4.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, was recorded within general and administrative expense on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Additional Paid-In Capital:
The $65.5 million decrease in additional paid-in capital during the six months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to $68.1 million of common stock repurchases and $2.0 million of other stock-based compensation activity, primarily shares forfeited for withholdings on vestings, partly offset by $4.6 million of stock-based compensation.
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company repurchased 2.9 million and 4.0 million shares, respectively, for $48.9 million and $68.3 million, respectively, under a previously approved stock repurchase program. At December 31, 2018, $167.0 million remains outstanding under the approved stock repurchase program.

6. | INCOME TAXES:

A summary of income tax (expense) benefit and corresponding effective tax rates is as follows:

|  | For the Three Months Ended December 31, |  | For the Six Months Ended December 31,
|  | 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017

Income tax (expense) benefit |  | $ | (454 | ) |  | $ | 80,825 |  |  | $ | 260 |  |  | $ | 75,266 |
Effective tax rate |  | 52.1 | % |  | 208.7 | % |  | 85.0 | % |  | 304.4 | %

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Company applied the guidance under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 which allowed for a measurement period up to one year after the December 22, 2017 enactment date of the Tax Act to complete the accounting requirements. The Company recorded a provisional net tax benefit of $68.1 million in continuing operations through fiscal year 2018. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to previously recorded provisional amounts related to the Tax Act and is now complete with its accounting.
The Company is no longer subject to IRS examinations for years before 2013. Furthermore, with limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and international income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.

7. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business. Like certain other large retail employers, the Company has been faced with allegations of purported class-wide consumer and wage and hour violations. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and the outcome of these matters cannot presently be determined. Although the actions are being vigorously defended, the Company could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations in any particular period.

Sale and Leaseback Transaction
In November 2018, the Company sold its Salt Lake City Distribution Center to Nearon Enterprises, LLC (Nearon), an unrelated party. The Company is leasing the property back from Nearon for 15 years with the option to renew three times for five year periods. As the Company plans to lease the property for more than 75% of its economic life, the sales proceeds received from the buyer-lessor are recognized as a financial liability. This financial liability is reduced based on the rental payments made under the lease that are allocated between principal and interest. As of December 31, 2018, the current portion of the Company’s financial liability was $0.6 million. As of December 31, 2018, future lease payments due are as follows:

Remainder of 2019 |  | $ | 585 |
2020 |  | 1,111 |
2021 |  | 1,063 |

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:
Fair value measurements are categorized into one of three levels based on the lowest level of significant input used: Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices in active markets); Level 2 (observable market inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1); and Level 3 (unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data).
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the estimated fair value of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables and accounts payable approximated their carrying values. As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the estimated fair value of the Company's debt was $90.0 million and the carrying value was $90.0 million. As of December 31, 2018 the estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term financial liability was $17.6 million. The estimated fair values of the Company's debt and long-term financial liability are based on Level 2 inputs.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We measure certain assets, including the Company’s equity method investments, tangible fixed and other assets and goodwill, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired. The fair values of these assets are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and may include quoted market prices, market comparables, and discounted cash flow projections.
The following impairments were based on fair values using Level 3 inputs:

|  | For the Three Months Ended December 31, |  | For the Six Months Ended December 31,

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the MD&A included in our June 30, 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) during the current fiscal year.
MANAGEMENT’S OVERVIEW
Regis Corporation (RGS) owns, franchises and operates beauty salons. As of December 31, 2018, the Company owned, franchised or held ownership interests in 8,021 worldwide locations. Our locations consisted of 7,934 system-wide North American and International salons, and in 87 locations we maintained a non-controlling ownership interest less than 100 percent. Each of the Company’s salon concepts generally offer similar salon products and services and serve the mass market. As of December 31, 2018, we had approximately 24,000 corporate employees worldwide.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make various judgments, estimates and assumptions that could have a significant impact on the results reported in the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We base these estimates on historical experience and other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates are considered to be critical if they meet both of the following criteria: (1) the estimate requires assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made, and (2) other materially different estimates could have been reasonably made or material changes in the estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Changes in these estimates could have a material effect on our interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our significant accounting policies can be found in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part II, Item 8 of the June 30, 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as Notes 1 and 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe the accounting policies related to the valuation of goodwill, the valuation and estimated useful lives of long-lived assets, estimates used in relation to tax liabilities, and deferred taxes are most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial condition and results of operations. Discussion of each of these policies is contained under “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7 of our June 30, 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our updated policies on the amended revenue recognition guidance, ASC Topic 606, can be found in Note 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company adopted the amended revenue recognition guidance, ASC Topic 606, on July 1, 2018 using the full retrospective transition method which required the adjustment of each prior reporting period presented. Recent accounting pronouncements are discussed in detail in Notes 1 and 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Beginning with the period ended September 30, 2017, the mall-based business and International segment were accounted for as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Discontinued operations are discussed at the end of this section. See Note 3 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on this transaction.
The Company realigned its field leadership team by brand during the period ended September 30, 2017. An outcome of this reorganization is that the costs associated with senior district leaders were moved out of cost of goods sold and site operating expense and into G&A. This change, which affected one month of comparability during the six months, does not impact the overall consolidated results. The estimated impact of the field reorganization (decreased) increased Cost of Service, Site Operating expense and General and Administrative expense by $(2.4), $(0.4) and $2.8 million, respectively, for the six months ended December 31, 2017. This expense classification does not have a financial impact on the Company's reported operating (loss) income, reported net income or cash flows from operations.
24

In the past field leaders were responsible for a geographical area that included a variety of brands, with different business models, services, pay plans and guest expectations. They also served as salon managers with a home salon that they spent a large portion of their time serving guests rather than field leadership. Post-reorganization, each field leader is dedicated to a specific brand/concept, as well as geography, and are focused solely on field leadership.
In the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company sold 133 and 257, respectively, company-owned salons to franchisees. The impact of these transaction is as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended December 31, |  | (Decrease) Increase |  | Six Months Ended December 31, |  | (Decrease) Increase

_____________________________

(1) | Company-owned same-store sales are calculated as the total change in sales for company-owned locations that were open on a specific day of the week during the current period and the corresponding prior period. Quarterly and year-to-date company-owned same-store sales are the sum of the company-owned same-store sales computed on a daily basis. Locations relocated within a one-mile radius are included in same-store sales as they are considered to have been open in the prior period. Company-owned same-store sales are calculated in local currencies to remove foreign currency fluctuations from the calculation.

Decreases in consolidated revenues were driven by the following:

Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2018 Compared with Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2017
Consolidated Revenues
Consolidated revenues are primarily comprised of service and product revenues, as well as franchise royalties and fees.
Consolidated revenue decreased $39.2 and $66.8 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively. Service revenue and product revenue decreased $32.9 and $10.2 million, respectively, in the three months ended December 31, 2018 and decreased $60.6 and $13.6 million, respectively, in the six months ended December 31, 2018. The decline in service and product revenue is primarily the result of the Company's sale of salons to franchisees. The Company constructed 2 salons and closed 680 company-owned salons and sold (net of buybacks), excluding the salons previously included in the Company's previous mall-based business and International segment, 520 company-owned salons to franchisees during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 (2019 Net Salon Count Changes). Company-owned same-store sales increased 0.5% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 due to increases of 5.2% and 4.7%, respectively, in average ticket price, partly offset by a decreases of 4.7% and 4.2%, respectively, in same-store guest transactions. Service and product revenue also declined due to the prior year being favorably impacted by the discontinuation of a piloted loyalty program. The decline in service and product revenue was partially offset by an increase in royalty and fee revenue of $3.9 million and $7.4 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively. The increase is primarily a result of increased number of franchised locations during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.
Consolidated revenue decreased $7.3 and $16.7 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. Service revenue and product revenue (decreased) increased $(12.4) and $3.6 million, respectively, in the three months ended December 31, 2017 and (decreased) increased $(20.0) and $0.8 million, respectively, in the six months ended December 31, 2017. The decline in service and product revenue is primarily the result of the Company's sale of salons to franchisees. The company-owned same-store sales decreases of 0.7% and 0.2% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were due to decreases of 3.3% and 3.2%, respectively, in same-store transactions, partly offset by increases of 2.5% and 3.0%, respectively, in average ticket price. The Company constructed (net of relocations) and closed 8 and 182 company-owned salons, respectively, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 and sold (net of buybacks) 266 company-owned salons to franchisees during the same period (2018 Net Salon Count Changes). Revenue related to franchised locations increased $9.0 and $10.3 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, primarily as a result of product sold to TBG and increased number of franchised locations during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. Also impacting revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, were favorable foreign currency and a cumulative adjustment related to discontinuing a piloted loyalty program.
Service Revenues
The decreases of $32.9 and $60.6 million in service revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to the 2019 Net Salon Count Changes, the prior year cumulative adjustments related to the discontinuation of the piloted loyalty program and unfavorable foreign currency. The decreases were partially offset by company-owned same-store service sales increases of 1.0% and 0.9% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, primarily the result of 5.4% and 5.1% increases in average ticket price, respectively, and decreases of 4.4% and 4.1% in same-store guest transactions, respectively. Additionally, there was less impact from hurricanes in the six months ended December 31, 2018 as compared to the prior year.
28

The decreases of $12.4 and $20.0 million in service revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were primarily due to the 2018 Net Salon Count Changes. Company-owned same-store service sales (decrease) increase of (0.7)% and 0.1% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were primarily the result of 2.7% and 3.4% increases in average ticket price, respectively, and decreases of 3.4% and 3.3%, respectively, in same-store guest transactions. Also impacting service revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, was a favorable cumulative adjustment related to the discontinuation of a piloted loyalty program. The six months ended December 31, 2017 were also negatively impacted by hurricanes in the southern United States.
Product Revenues
The decrease s of $10.2 and $13.6 million in product revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 were primarily due to 2019 Net Salon Count Changes and company-owned same-store product sales decreases of 1.4% and 1.1%, respectively, partly offset by product sold to franchisees. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the decreases in company-owned same-store product sales was primarily the result of decreases in company-owned same-store transactions of 6.3% and 5.1%, respectively, partially offset by increases in average ticket price of 5.0% and 4.0%, respectively. Additionally, there was less impact from hurricanes in the six months ended December 31, 2018 as compared to the prior year.
The increases of $3.6 and $0.8 million in product revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017 were primarily due to product sold to TBG, partly offset by the 2018 Net Salon Count Changes and company-owned same-store product sales decreases of 0.8% and 1.2%, respectively. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, the decreases in same-store product sales was primarily the result of decreases in same-store transactions of 4.2% and 4.6%, respectively, partly offset by increases in average ticket price of 3.4%. The six months ended December 31, 2017 were also negatively impacted by hurricanes in the southern United States.
Royalties and Fees
The increases of $3.9 and $7.4 million in royalties and fees for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, were primarily due to an increase in franchise locations. Total franchised locations open at December 31, 2018 were 4,266 as compared to 3,929 at December 31, 2017.
The increases of $1.5 and $2.5 million in royalties and fees for the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, was primarily the result of higher royalties due to the increased number of franchised locations.
Cost of Service
There was no basis point change in cost of service as a percent of service revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2018 due to increases in stylist productivity being offset by higher minimum wage and the lapping of the one-time benefit of discounting the piloted loyalty program in the prior year. The 50 basis point decrease in cost of service for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was due to the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, improved stylist productivity and the lapping of the negative hurricane impact in the prior year, partly offset by state minimum wage increases, higher commissions and the lapping of the one-time benefit of discontinuing the piloted loyalty program in the prior year.
The 370 and 320 basis point decreases in cost of service as a percent of service revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were primarily due to the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. After considering this change in expense categorization, cost of service as a percent of service revenues decreased 70 and 60 basis points for the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, as a result of improved stylist productivity and cost savings associated with salon tools, partly offset by state minimum wage increases and higher health insurance costs. The six months ended December 31, 2017 was also negatively impacted by hurricanes in the southern United States.
Cost of Product
The 350 and 480 basis point increases in cost of product as a percent of product revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, were primarily due to the lapping of the one-time benefit of discontinuing the piloted loyalty program in the prior year and shift into lower margin products to franchisees, partly offset by the lapping of inventory reserve related to the SmartStyle restructure in the prior year.
29

The 480 and 320 basis point increases in cost of product as a percent of product revenues during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were primarily due to franchise product sold to The Beautiful Group, shift into lower margin product revenue to franchisees and inventory reserves related to the SmartStyle restructure, partly offset by the one-time benefit of discontinuing the loyalty program in fiscal year 2018.
Site Operating Expenses
The decreases of $3.0 and $6.2 million in site operating expenses during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively due to a net reduction in salon counts, partly offset by increased advertising fund costs as a result of increased franchise salons and marketing costs associated with our industry exclusive sponsorship with Major League Baseball.
Site operating expenses (decreased) increased $(0.4) and $0.6 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. After considering the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, site operating expenses increased $1.3 and $3.4 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, primarily as a result of the SmartStyle marketing campaign and less favorable actuarial adjustments related to workers' compensation accruals, partly offset by a net reduction in salon counts.
General and Administrative
The decrease of $2.8 million in general and administrative (G&A) during the three months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to the lapping of severance payments related to terminations of former executives in the prior year and lower administrative and field management salaries, partly offset by increased stock compensation expense and professional fees. The increase of $9.8 million in G&A during the six months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to prior year's favorable impact from a gain associated with life insurance proceeds in connection with the passing of a former executive officer, the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, increased stock compensation expense and professional fees, partly offset by lower administrative, corporate and field management salaries.
The increases of $11.9 and $11.1 million in general and administrative (G&A) during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were primarily due to the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018. After considering the change in expense categorization, G&A increased (decreased) $3.0 and $(4.0) million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. The remaining G&A increase during the three months ended December 31, 2017 was primarily as a result of severance payments related to terminations of former executives, year over year increase in incentive compensation accruals and professional fees. After considering the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization, the G&A decrease during the six months ended December 31, 2017, was primarily a result of a gain associated with life insurance proceeds in connection with the passing of a former executive officer, partially offset by severance payments related to terminations of former executives, year over year increase in incentive compensation accruals and professional fees.
Rent
The decrease s of $30.8 and $37.3 million in rent expense during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, were primarily due to the lapping of lease termination and other related closure costs associated with the SmartStyle operational restructuring in the prior year and the net reduction in salon counts, partly offset by rent inflation.
The increases of $20.4 and $16.6 million in rent expense during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to lease termination and other related closure costs associated with the SmartStyle operational restructuring and rent inflation, partly offset by a deferred rent adjustment related to the SmartStyle restructuring and a net reduction in salon counts.
Depreciation and Amortization
The decrease s of $16.1 and $18.1 million in depreciation and amortization (D&A) during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, were primarily due to the lapping of costs associated with returning SmartStyle locations to their pre-occupancy condition in connection with the SmartStyle restructuring in the prior year and the reduced salon base.
30

The increases of $12.3 and $12.5 million in depreciation and amortization (D&A) during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, was primarily due to costs associated with returning SmartStyle locations to their pre-occupancy condition in connection with the SmartStyle restructuring and higher fixed asset impairment charges, partly offset by lower depreciation on a reduced salon base.
Interest Expense
The decrease s of $1.1 and $2.2 million in interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, were primarily due to a lower outstanding principal and lower interest rates associated with the revolving credit facility compared to the retired senior term note.
Interest expense was flat for the three and six months ended December 31, 2017 compared to the prior year period.
Gain (loss) from sale of salon assets to franchisees, net
In three months ended December 31, 2018 the gain from sale of salon assets to franchisees was $2.9 million, including non-cash goodwill derecognition of $6.5 million. In the six months ended December 31, 2018 the loss from the sale of salons assets to franchisees was $1.1 million, including $17.6 million of non-cash goodwill derecognition.
In the three months ended December 31, 2017 the loss from the sale of salons assets to franchisees was $0.1 million, including non-cash goodwill derecognition of $0.3 million. In the six months ended December 31, 2017 the loss from the sale of salons assets to franchisees was zero, including non-cash goodwill derecognition of $0.5 million.
Interest Income and Other, net
The decrease s of $1.4 and $1.5 million in interest income and other, net during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, were primarily due to the lapping of income received for transition services related to The Beautiful Group transaction.
The increases of $1.3 and $1.4 million in interest income and other, net during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, were primarily due to income received for transition services related to The Beautiful Group transaction, partly offset by a prior year insurance recovery benefit.
Income Taxes
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 the Company recognized tax (expense) benefit of $(0.5) and $0.3 million, respectively, with a corresponding effective tax rate of 52.1% and 85.0% as compared to recognizing tax benefit of $80.8 and $75.3 million, respectively, with a corresponding effective tax rate of 208.7% and 304.4% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). In connection with the Tax Act, the Company recorded a provisional net tax benefit of $68.1 million in continuing operations during fiscal year 2018. The net tax benefit is primarily attributable to the impact of the corporate rate reduction on our deferred tax assets and liabilities along with a partial release of the U.S. valuation allowance. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to previously recorded provision amounts related to the Tax Act and is now complete with its accounting.
The recorded tax provisions and effective tax rates for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 and three and six months ended December 31, 2017 were different than what would normally be expected primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act, state conformity of the new federal provisions and the deferred tax valuation allowance. The majority of the tax provision in periods ended prior to December 31, 2017 related to the impact of the Tax Act and the deferred tax VA as well as non-cash tax expense for tax benefits on certain indefinite-lived assets that the Company could not recognize for reporting purposes.
See Note 6 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
31

Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations
Income from discontinued operations of $6.1 million and $5.8 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, was primarily due to income tax benefits recognized in the quarter associated with the wind-down and transfer of legal entities related to discontinued operations. See Note 3 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Loss associated with the discontinued operations of the mall-based business and International segment during the three and six months ended December 31, 2017 was $6.6 and $40.4 million, respectively. The loss during the three months ended December 31, 2017 is primarily due to asset impairment charges and professional fees related to the successful completion of the transaction. The increase loss during the six months ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to asset impairment charges, the loss from operations, the recognition of net loss of amounts previously classified within accumulated other comprehensive income and professional fees associated with the transaction. The recognition of the net loss of amounts previously classified within accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings was the result of the Company's liquidation of substantially all foreign entities with British pound denominated currencies.
Results of Operations by Segment
Based on our internal management structure, we report two segments: Company-owned salons and Franchise salons. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Significant results of operations are discussed below with respect to each of these segments.

Company-owned Salon Revenues
Decreases in Company-owned salon revenues were driven by the following:

|  | Three Months Ended December 31, |  | Six Months Ended December 31,
Factor |  | 2018 |  | 2017 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
Company-owned same-store sales |  | 0.5 | % |  | (0.7 | )% |  | 0.5 | % |  | (0.2 | )%
Closed salons |  | (6.3 | ) |  | (2.1 | ) |  | (6.2 | ) |  | (2.1 | )

|  | (16.4 | )% |  | (5.5 | )% |  | (14.9 | )% |  | (4.5 | )%

Company-owned salon revenues decreased $45.8 and $84.8 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, primarily due to the closure of a net 678 salons and the sale of 520 company-owned salons (net of buybacks) to franchisees during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, partly offset by company-owned same-store sale increases of 0.5% during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018. The company-owned same-store sales increases were due to increases of 5.2% and 4.7% in average ticket prices, partly offset by decreases of 4.7% and 4.2% in same-store guest transactions during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively.
32

Company-owned Salon Operating Income
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, Company-owned salon operations generated operating income of $14.5 and $34.1 million, increases of $34.6 and $30.8 million respectively, compared to the prior comparable period. The increases during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 were primarily due to the lapping the impairment charge related to the SmartStyle restructuring and the closing of underperforming salons.

Franchise Salon Revenues
Franchise salon revenues increased $6.6 and $18.0 million during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, respectively, primarily due to increases of $2.8 and $10.7 million in franchise product sales, respectively, as a result of higher franchise salon counts. Royalties, ad fund revenue and fees also increased $3.9 and $7.4 million, respectively, due to higher franchise salon counts. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, franchisees constructed (net of relocations) and closed 75 and 258 franchise-owned salons, respectively, and purchased (net of Company buybacks) 520 salons from the Company during the same period.
Franchise Salon Operating Income
During the three months ended December 31, 2018, Franchise salon operations generated operating income of $8.2 million, a decrease of $0.2 million compared to prior comparable period. The decrease during the three months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due a shift into lower margin products and lower margin franchisees, partly offset by higher royalties and fees. During the six months ended December 31, 2018, Franchise salon operations generated operating income of $18.0 million, an increase of $1.0 million compared to prior comparable period. The increase during the six months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to the increased number of new franchised locations resulting in an increase in royalties, partially offset by lower product margins.
Corporate
Corporate Operating Loss
Corporate operating loss decreased $2.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2018 primarily driven by lower general and administrative salaries. Corporate operating loss increased $7.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018 primarily driven by prior year's favorable impact from a $8.0 million gain associated with life insurance proceeds in connection with the passing of a former executive officer and $4.0 million of professional fees, partially offset by lower general and administrative salaries.
33

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources of Liquidity
Funds generated by operating activities, available cash and cash equivalents, proceeds from sale of salon assets to franchisees, and our borrowing agreements are our most significant sources of liquidity.
As of December 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents were $97.0 million, with $89.2 and $7.7 million within the United States and Canada, respectively.
The Company's borrowing arrangements include a $295.0 million five-year unsecured revolving credit facility that expires in March 2023, of which $182.0 million was available as of December 31, 2018. See Note 10 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Uses of Cash
The Company closely manages its liquidity and capital resources. The Company's liquidity requirements depend on key variables, including the level of investment needed to support its business strategies, the performance of the business, capital expenditures, credit facilities and borrowing arrangements and working capital management. Capital expenditures are a component of the Company's cash flow and capital management strategy which can be adjusted in response to economic and other changes to the Company's business environment. The Company has a disciplined approach to capital allocation, which focuses on investing in key priorities to support the Company's multi-year strategic plan as discussed within Part I, Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.
Cash Flows
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
During the six months ended December 31, 2018, cash used in operating activities of $11.0 million, a decrease of $1.5 million compared to the prior comparable period, was primarily due to the elimination of certain general and administrative costs.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
During the six months ended December 31, 2018, cash provided by investing activities of $31.9 million, an increase of $26.0 million compared to the prior comparable period, was primarily from proceeds from the settlement of company-owned life insurance policies of $24.6 million and cash proceeds from sale of salon assets of $24.1 million, partly offset by capital expenditures of $16.8 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
During the six months ended December 31, 2018, cash used in financing activities of $49.0 million, an increase of $46.6 million compared to the prior comparable period was primarily from the repurchase of common stock of $65.1 million, employee taxes paid for shares withheld of $2.3 million, partly offset by the $18.1 million of proceeds from the sale and lease back transaction of one of the Company's distribution centers.
Financing Arrangements
See Note 10 of the Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and Note 7 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, for additional information regarding our financing arrangements.

Debt to Capitalization Ratio
Our debt to capitalization ratio, calculated as the principal amount of debt as a percentage of the principal amount of debt and shareholders’ equity at fiscal quarter end, were as follows:

As of |  | Debt to Capitalization |  | Basis Point Increase (Decrease) (1)
December 31, 2018 |  | 20.3 | % |  | 470 |
June 30, 2018 |  | 15.6 | % |  | (390 | )

_____________________________
(1) Represents the basis point change in debt to capitalization as compared to the prior fiscal year end (June 30, 2018 and
June 30, 2017, respectively).
The 470 basis point increase in the debt to capitalization ratio as of December 31, 2018 as compared to June 30, 2018 was primarily due to decreases in shareholders' equity resulting from the repurchase of 4.0 million of the Company's shares for $68.3 million as well as the debt associated with the sale leaseback of one of the Company's distribution centers.
Share Repurchase Program
In May 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors (Board) approved a stock repurchase program with no stated expiration date. Since that time and through December 31, 2018, the Board has authorized $650.0 million to be expended for the repurchase of the Company's stock under this program. All repurchased shares become authorized but unissued shares of the Company. The timing and amounts of any repurchases depend on many factors, including the market price of the common stock and overall market conditions. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, the Company repurchased 2.9 million shares for $48.9 million. As of December 31, 2018, 23.8 million shares have been cumulatively repurchased for $483.0 million, and $167.0 million remains outstanding under the approved stock repurchase program.

The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business. Like certain other large retail employers, the Company has been faced with allegations of purported class-wide consumer and wage and hour violations. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and the outcome of these matters cannot presently be determined. Although the actions are being vigorously defended, the Company could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations in any particular period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, except for the revisions to the fifth risk factor listed below:
TBG’s inability to transition and operate its salons successfully could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations or cash flows, and could prevent the transaction from delivering the anticipated benefits and enhancing shareholder value.
38

In October 2017, we sold substantially all of our mall-based salon business in North America and substantially all of our International segment to TBG, an affiliate of Regent, which is operating them as a franchisee. The success of TBG depends upon a number of factors that are beyond our control, including, among other factors, market conditions, retail trends in mall locations, industry trends, stylist recruiting and retention, customer traffic, as defined by total transactions, the capabilities of TBG, the accuracy and reliability of TBG’s financial reporting systems, TBG's ability to maintain adequate working capital, technology and landlord issues. In particular, as of December 31, 2018, prior to any mitigation efforts which may be available to us, we estimate that we remain liable for up to $75 million, which is a material reduction from October 1, 2017, under the leases for certain of these salons until the end of their various terms, and we could be required to make cash payments if TBG fails to do so, which could materially adversely impact our results of operations or cash flows. Under the agreements with TBG, we receive fees for certain services, fees for certain transition services, and product sales revenue; however, the amount of these fees is tied to the success of the business as operated by TBG. It is taking longer than we originally anticipated for TBG to implement the changes intended to improve the business of the mall-based salons and the International business, TBG same store sales have declined year over year and there is no assurance that TBG will be successful in improving performance in the future. In addition, several of the services we provided to TBG under the transition services agreement ended in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, thereby reducing this current income stream. We anticipate we will attempt to reduce related general and administrative costs and other associated expenses in connection with providing these transition services; however it will take time for us to reduce all of these costs even though the related income stream has ended and we continue to provide consulting services to TBG to continue to facilitate its transition. In connection with the purchase agreements, subleases, transition services and other related agreements with the Company, from time to time, TBG has been delinquent on its payments to the Company and to third parties. It is foreseeable that TBG may in the future continue to have cash flow and working capital issues, which could have significant adverse impacts on our business, including a need to record reserves on receivables from TBG. In August 2018, we restructured certain payments due to us from TBG in the form of promissory notes representing approximately $11.7 million in working capital receivables and $8.0 million in accounts receivables, a majority of which was for inventory payables. All notes have a maturity date of August 2, 2020. Under the working capital notes, if no default has occurred under such notes and certain other conditions are met, such notes will be forgiven as of the maturity date and will be exchanged for a three-year contingent payment right that is payable to us upon the occurrence of certain TBG monetization events. Based on the likelihood of future forgiveness of the working capital notes, the Company recorded a full reserve against such notes. Should the Company need to record reserves against its current and future receivables from TBG or their ability to meet the requirements of the promissory notes, these non-cash reserves would be recorded within general and administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2018, the net amount of receivables and notes due from TBG amounted to $16.4 million. In October 2018, TBG filed a voluntary insolvency proceeding involving its United Kingdom business, which its creditors approved ("CVA"). In November 2018, a group of landlords filed a legal challenge to the CVA in United Kingdom’s High Court alleging material irregularity and unfair prejudice. If the CVA is overturned, or is otherwise not implemented, it is likely that TBG’s United Kingdom business will no longer be able to trade as a going concern, which is likely to result in bankruptcy and/or administrative proceedings. Even if the CVA is implemented and the challenge overturned or a settlement reached, TBG may still not successfully achieve the cost savings and other benefits contemplated by the CVA. Negative events associated with the CVA process and challenge could adversely affect TBG’s and/or our relationships with suppliers, service providers, customers, employees, and other third parties, which in turn could adversely affect TBG’s and/or our operations and financial condition. We had previously agreed in the note documents that a CVA filing would not constitute an item of default and TBG’s debt obligations to us currently remain intact. Regardless of the outcome of the CVA, TBG may in the future need to further restructure (operationally, legally, or otherwise) its businesses, operations and obligations. The Company has certain rights and remedies under the various agreements with TBG, including, but not limited to, utilization of collateral, litigation, reversion of the leases in respect of certain divested salons back to the Company and enforcement of a guarantee. If the divested salons were to revert, we may have difficulty supporting the businesses because of the challenges involved in quickly and sufficiently staffing the salons and corporate functions to support an influx in company-owned stores, addressing the stores’ performance issues, implementing required data privacy requirements in the United Kingdom and resuming support for the salons’ IT and marketing requirements. Overall, TBG’s inability to transition and operate the salons successfully, or its ability to make payments when due under the promissory notes or otherwise under the franchise agreements and transition service agreements, could adversely affect our business, including increased reputation risks, litigation risks, financial condition and results of operations or cash flows, and could prevent the transaction from delivering the anticipated benefits and shareholder value.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Share Repurchase Program
In May 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors (Board) approved a stock repurchase program with no stated expiration date. Since that time and through December 31, 2018, the Board has authorized $650.0 million to be expended for the repurchase of the Company's stock under this program. All repurchased shares become authorized but unissued shares of the Company. The timing and amounts of any repurchases depend on many factors, including the market price of the common stock and overall market conditions. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company repurchased 2.9 million and 4.0 million shares, respectively, for $48.9 million and $68.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, a total accumulated 23.8 million shares have been repurchased for $483.0 million. At December 31, 2018, $167.0 million remains outstanding under the approved stock repurchase program.
The following table shows the stock repurchase activity by the Company or any “affiliated purchaser” of the Company, as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) under the Exchange Act, by month for the three months ended December 31, 2018:
