Real Estate Notes Payable


Certain of our retail real estate properties have been financed through commercial mortgages with an interest rate of 6.73%. These mortgages are collateralized by the respective properties with net book values totaling approximately $6,262 and $6,397 at November 30, 2013 and November 24, 2012, respectively. The current portion of these mortgages, $279 and $241 as of November 30, 2013 and November 24, 2012, respectively, has been included in other accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The long-term portion, $2,467 and $3,053 as of November 30, 2013 and November 24, 2012, respectively, is presented as real estate notes payable in the consolidated balance sheets. During fiscal 2011, we entered into Discounted Payoff Agreements (“DPOs”) with the lenders on three mortgages which were subsequently paid off during the year. Under the terms of these DPOs the remaining balance owed was reduced, resulting in a $1,305 gain on the settlement of these mortgages. This gain is included in other loss, net, in our consolidated statements of income.


The fair value of these mortgages was $2,684 and $3,309 at November 30, 2013 and November 24, 2012, respectively. In determining the fair value we utilized current market interest rates for similar instruments. The inputs into these fair value calculations reflect our market assumptions and are not observable. Consequently, the inputs are considered to be Level 3 as specified in the fair value hierarchy in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. See Note 7.

Bank Credit Facility


On December 18, 2012, we entered into a new credit facility with our bank extending us a line of credit of up to $15,000. This credit facility is secured by our accounts receivable and inventory and contains certain covenants requiring us to maintain certain key financial ratios. We were in compliance with all covenants under the facility at November 30, 2013 and expect to remain in compliance for the foreseeable future.


At November 30, 2013 we had $1,366 outstanding under standby letters of credit, leaving availability under our credit line of $13,634.


Total interest paid, including bank and mortgage debt, during fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $244, $294 and $895, respectively.
