RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In 2013, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2013-2, which requires additional disclosure of information related to changes in our accumulated other comprehensive loss by component and significant items reclassified out of our accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of deferred taxes, for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2013 consist of the following:

	Foreign Currency Translation			Defined Benefit Pension Plans			Total
Balance beginning of period	$	(192	)	$	(231,426	)	$	(231,618	)
Other comprehensive income before reclassifications	(16		)	—			(16		)
Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss	—			13,796			13,796
Net current-period other comprehensive income	(16		)	13,796			13,780
Balance end of period	$	(208	)	$	(217,630	)	$	(217,838	)

During the 13 and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2013, $6,898 and $13,796 of net actuarial loss was amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost (see Note 9 Pension Plans). Because of the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, there was no federal or state income-based tax expense or benefit related to amounts recorded to or reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss.
