Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Stock-Based Employee Compensation

Stock-Based Employee Compensation:

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, the Company granted various equity awards including restricted stock units (RSUs), equity-based stock appreciation rights (SARs) and performance share units (PSUs). During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, the dividend yield assumption was updated to 0%. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the expected volatility assumption was updated to 38%. Otherwise there were no other significant changes to the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of SARs. All grants relate to stock incentive plans that have been approved by the shareholders of the Company.

A summary of equity awards granted is as follows:

	For the Periods Ended March 31, 2015
	Three Months	Nine Months
Restricted stock units	176,263	477,771
Equity-based stock appreciation rights	363,970	814,304
Performance share units	—	199,337

Total compensation cost for stock-based payment arrangements totaled $2.3 and $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $6.3 and $4.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, recorded within general and administrative expense on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

During fiscal year 2014, the Company granted 0.1 million PSUs with a performance metric based upon achieving a three-year cumulative adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization balance. As of March 31, 2015, the Company does not expect any of these units to be earned and has not recorded any net expense associated with these awards. However, future compensation expense for the unvested awards could reach a maximum of $1.9 million if the maximum performance metric is earned.

Long-Lived Asset Impairment Assessments, Excluding Goodwill

Long-Lived Asset Impairment Assessments, Excluding Goodwill:

The Company assesses impairment of long-lived assets at the individual salon level, as this is the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of other groups of assets and liabilities, when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets or the asset grouping may not be recoverable. Factors considered in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant under-performance of an individual salon in relation to expectations, significant economic or geographic trends, and significant changes or planned changes in our use of the assets. Impairment is evaluated based on the sum of undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from use of the long-lived assets. If the undiscounted estimated cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company calculates an impairment charge based on the assets' estimated fair value. The fair value of the long-lived assets is estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on the best information available, including market data and salon level revenues and expenses. Long-lived asset impairment charges are recorded within depreciation and amortization in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Accounting Standards Recently Issued But Not Yet Adopted by the Company

Accounting Standards Recently Issued But Not Yet Adopted by the Company:

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued updated guidance for revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a Company to recognize revenue to depict the exchange for goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive for those goods or services. Currently the guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. This guidance will be effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, however, FASB has proposed deferring the effective date until the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. This update permits the use of either the retrospective or simplified transition method. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and is evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its related disclosures.

Earnings Per Share

Impacting the net loss available to common shareholders was a $1.5 million error related to prior periods that was recorded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, related to an understatement of self-insurance accruals in prior periods. Because this item was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for any prior periods or the second quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company recorded a correcting cumulative adjustment during the second quarter of fiscal year 2015. The impact of this item for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations increased site operating expense and net loss from continuing operations by $1.5 million.
