Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

NOTE 2—IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, impairment charges aggregated to $358 and $192, respectively. The impairment charges for both periods primarily resulted from the continued deterioration of previously impaired theatres.

The estimated aggregate fair value of the long-lived assets impaired during the three months ended March 31, 2014 was approximately $373. These fair value estimates are considered Level 3 estimates within the fair value hierarchy prescribed by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, and were derived primarily from discounting estimated future cash flows. Future cash flows for a particular theatre are based on historical cash flows for that theatre, after giving effect to future attendance fluctuations, and are projected through the remainder of its lease term or useful life. The Company projects future attendance fluctuations of (10%) to 10%. The risk-adjusted rate of return used to discount these cash flows ranges from 10% to 15%.
