Fair Value Measurements (Going Concern Basis)

GAAP establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. Fair value measurements guidance applies whenever other authoritative accounting guidance requires or permits assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value.

GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include:

•Level 1: Defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

•Level 2: Defined as pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures.

•Level 3: Defined as pricing inputs that are unobservable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

The fair values of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other receivables, net, and accounts payable approximate their carrying value due to their short duration. The carrying value of the Company's total long-term debt, net of unamortized discounts and debt issue costs, at August 26, 2020 was approximately $54.1 million, which approximates fair value because the applicable interest rate is adjusted frequently based on short-term market rates (Level 2).

There were no recurring fair value measurements related to assets or liabilities at August 26, 2020.

There were no non-recurring fair value measurement adjustments for the 12 week period ended November 18, 2020.

Under the going concern basis of accounting, non-recurring fair value measurements related to impaired operating lease right-of-use assets and property held for sale for the two quarters ended March 11, 2020 consisted of the following:

(1) In accordance with Subtopic 360-10, long-lived assets held for sale with a carrying value of approximately $3.4 million were written down to their fair value, less costs to sell, of approximately $3.4 million, resulting in an impairment charge of approximately $14 thousand.

(2) In accordance with Subtopic 360-10, operating lease right-of-use assets with a carrying amount of approximately $1.2 million were written down to their fair value of zero, resulting in an impairment charge of approximately $1.2 million.

(3) Total impairments are included in provision for asset impairments and restaurant closings in our unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the two quarters ended March 11, 2020.
