IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company assesses long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets (or asset group) may not be recoverable. Based on management’s review of the historical operating performance, including sales trends, gross margin rates, current cash flows from operations and the projected outlook for each of the Company’s stores, the Company determined that certain stores would not be able to generate sufficient cash flows over the remaining term of the related leases to recover the Company’s investment in the respective stores. As a result, the Company recorded the following non-cash impairment charges related to its retail stores within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Operations, to write-down the carrying value of its long-lived store assets to their estimated fair values.



	For the Second Quarter Ended				For the First Half Ended
	August 1, 2015		August 2, 2014		August 1, 2015		August 2, 2014
	(In thousands)
Impairment charges	$	61	$	880	$	602	$	1,663



	August 1, 2015		August 2, 2014
	(In thousands)
Carrying value of assets tested for impairment	$	825	$	2,341
Carrying value of assets with impairment	$	89	$	1,198
Fair value of assets impaired	$	28	$	318
Number of stores tested for impairment	20		47
Number of stores with impairment	4		17

The long-lived assets disclosed above that were written down to their respective fair values consisted primarily of leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment. The Company recognized impairment charges of $0.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, during the second quarters ended August 1, 2015 and August 2, 2014 and $0.6 million and $1.7 million during the first half of fiscal 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease in the number of stores tested for impairment year-over-year was primarily related to the Company's closure of certain underperforming stores.
