Segment Information [Abstract]

Segment Information

NOTE 14 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

We are principally engaged in developing, operating, franchising and licensing our Carl's Jr. and Hardee's quick-service restaurant concepts, each of which is considered an operating segment that is managed and evaluated separately. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in our summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011).
