Goodwill

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 nine months ended March 31, 2019.

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.

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 in its goodwill impairment assessment. 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

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, $23.6 million and $37.6 million as of June 30, 2018, March 31, 2019 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.

Accounting 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 will also elect the package of practical expedients that do not require reassessment of whether existing contracts are or contain leases, lease classification or initial direct costs. The Company is leveraging its lease management system to facilitate the adoption of this standard and is evaluating business processes and internal controls related to lease accounting to assist in the application of the new guidance. 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 its operating lease commitments, including leases signed on behalf of franchisees, will be subject to the new guidance. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new guidance to have a material impact on net income, cash flows or compliance with debt agreements.

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 for Company-owned salons 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 unaudited 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 agreements, are recorded on a gross basis within the unaudited 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.

Fair Value Measurements

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.
