As a result, the Company reported a gain of $0.4 million and relieved $0.1 million of previously unrecognized gain in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. On March 29, 2011, the Company sold student loan auction rate securities, with a par value of $3.3 million and an estimated fair value of $2.8 million, for $3.3 million, reported a gain of $0.6 million and relieved $0.1 million of previously unrecognized gain in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. On December 9, 2010, the Company sold auction market preferred shares issued by AMBAC Assurance Corporation with a par value of $8.3 million and a fair value of $0.2 million for $0.5 million and reported a gain of $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. On July 29, 2010, the Company sold student loan auction rate securities, with a par value of $3.8 million and fair value of $2.9 million for $3.3 million and reported a gain of $0.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. At December 29, 2012, due to continued multiple failed auctions and a determination of illiquidity, the auction rate securities held by the Company are classified as Long-term marketable securities. These auction rate securities are exposed to risks associated with student loan asset-backed notes. Such loans are insured by the federal government or guaranteed by the Federal Family Educational Loan Program ("FFELP"). The Company intends to sell its auction rate securities as markets for these securities resume or reasonable offers become available. |
