5.    Discontinued Operations

Julian Graves

        On July 2, 2012, in accordance with the provisions of the United Kingdom Insolvency Act of 1986 and pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors of Julian Graves Limited, a company organized under the laws of the United Kingdom and Wales (the "UK Debtor") and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, representatives from Deloitte LLP (the "Administrators") were appointed as administrators in respect of the UK Debtor (the "UK Administration"). The UK Administration, which was limited to the UK Debtor, was initiated in response to continuing operating losses of the UK Debtor and their related impact on the Company's cash flows. The effect of the UK Debtor's entry into administration was to place the management, affairs, business and property of the UK Debtor under the direct control of the Administrators. The Administrators have wound the operations down and there are no material adjustments anticipated.

        The results of the Julian Graves business included in discontinued operations (previously in the European Retail Segment) for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 are summarized in the following table:
