NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts or unless otherwise indicated)

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

ClubCorp Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries CCA Club Operations Holdings, LLC (“Operations’ Parent”) and ClubCorp Club Operations, Inc. (“Operations” and, together with Holdings and Operations’ Parent, “ClubCorp”) were formed on November 10, 2010, as part of a reorganization of ClubCorp, Inc. (“CCI”), which was effective as of November 30, 2010, for the purpose of operating and managing golf and country clubs and business, sports and alumni clubs. ClubCorp, together with its subsidiaries, may be referred to as “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”.

As of June 13, 2017, we own, lease or operate through joint ventures 152 golf and country clubs and manage eight golf and country clubs. Likewise, we lease or operate through a joint venture 41 business, sports and alumni clubs and manage three business, sports and alumni clubs. Our facilities are located in 27 states, the District of Columbia and two foreign countries.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation—The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of ClubCorp, its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries and certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The consolidated condensed financial statements presented herein reflect our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or “GAAP”. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated.

Investments in certain unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for by the equity method. See Note 4.

We have entered into agreements with third-party owners of clubs to act as a managing agent and provide certain services to the third party club owner in exchange for a management fee. The operations of managed clubs are not consolidated. We recognize the contractual management fees as revenue when earned. Additionally, we recognize reimbursements for certain costs of operations at certain managed clubs as revenue.

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from the accompanying financial statements. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 27, 2016.

We believe that the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations and other factors such as timing of acquisitions and dispositions of facilities.

We have two reportable segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs. These segments are managed separately and discrete financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), a key financial measurement of segment profit and loss, is reviewed regularly by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance and allocate resources. See Note 12.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from such estimated amounts.

Revenue Recognition—Revenues from club operations, food and beverage and merchandise sales are recognized at the time of sale or when the service is provided and are reported net of sales taxes. Revenues from membership dues are generally billed monthly and recognized in the period earned.

At a majority of our private clubs, members are expected to pay an initiation fee or deposit upon their acceptance as a member to the club. In general, initiation fees are not refundable, whereas initiation deposits are not refundable until a fixed number of years (generally 30) after the date of acceptance of a member. We recognize revenue related to membership initiation fees and deposits over the expected life of an active membership.

8

For membership initiation deposits, the difference between the amount paid by the member and the present value of the refund obligation is deferred and recognized within club operations revenue over the expected life of an active membership. The present value of the refund obligation is recorded as a membership initiation deposit liability and accretes over the non-refundable term using the effective interest method with an interest rate defined as our incremental borrowing rate adjusted to reflect a 30-year time frame. The accretion is included in interest expense.

The majority of membership initiation fees received are not refundable and are deferred and recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations over the expected life of an active membership.

The expected lives of active memberships are calculated annually using historical attrition rates. Periods in which attrition rates differ significantly from enrollment rates could have a material effect on our consolidated condensed financial statements by decreasing or increasing the expected lives of active memberships, which in turn would affect the length of time over which we recognize initiation fee and deposit revenues. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, our estimated expected lives ranged from one to 20 years; the weighted-average expected life of a golf and country club membership was approximately seven years and the expected life of a business, sports and alumni club membership was approximately three years.

Membership initiation payments recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations were $3.2 million and $3.2 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, and $6.5 million and $6.6 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-9 (“ASU 2014-9”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-9 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements. In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-9 to fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We plan to adopt the ASU, as amended, in Q1 2018. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-8 (“ASU 2016-8”) which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9. In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10 (“ASU 2016-10”) which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9. In May 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12 (“ASU 2016-12”) which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9.

The FASB allows two adoption methods under ASU 2014-9. Under one method, a company will apply the rules to contracts in all reporting periods presented, subject to certain allowable exceptions. Under the other method, a company will apply the rules to all contracts existing as of the first day of Q1 2018, recognizing in beginning retained earnings an adjustment for the cumulative effect of the change and providing additional disclosures comparing results to previous rules (“modified retrospective method”). We anticipate adopting the standard under the modified retrospective method.

9

Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, we believe the key changes in the standard that impact our revenue recognition relate to contracts for new members which include an initiation payment. The standard requires that we allocate the amount paid by the new member between various components of the contract which may constitute a performance obligation. These components include initiation payments to join one of our clubs, dues which provide for continued access to our clubs as well as charges for food and beverage, merchandise sales and other club services. We may discount any of these components as a promotion for new members. The revenues for these components may be recognized over varying time periods. Membership initiation payments recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated statements of operations were $6.5 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, or approximately 1% of our consolidated total revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. We are still in the process of evaluating the quantitative impact of these changes; however, we cannot currently estimate the impact of change upon adoption, as the amount is dependent on the structure of our membership pricing structure and our employee incentive plans, which we frequently evaluate and adjust to respond to current market conditions. Additionally, we believe the requirement to defer incremental contract acquisition costs and recognize them as an expense over the contract period may apply to certain of our employee commission plans and to discounts or incentives provided to existing members who sponsor a new member. We expect to recognize a deferred charge on our balance sheet, which we will recognize into expense over the expected life of an active membership. We cannot currently estimate the impact of the change in accounting treatment for contract acquisition costs for the same reasons described above.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-2 (“ASU 2016-2”), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-2 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP; however, ASU 2016-2 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases guidance. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that the effect of leases in the statement of operations and the statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. ASU 2016-2 is effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-2 in Q1 2019.

Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, a key change upon adoption will be the balance sheet recognition of all leased assets and liabilities. Currently we lease many of our business clubs and a few of our golf and country clubs through operating leases which are not recognized on the balance sheet. We anticipate a right to use asset and a related lease liability will be recognized for these leases and potentially other contracts which qualify as leases.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected credit losses during the period. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate the adoption will have a material impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-1 (“ASU 2017-1”), Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Under ASC Topic 805, there are three elements of a business: inputs, processes, and outputs, which must be evaluated to determine if an asset or group of assets is a business. ASU 2017-1 provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. ASU 2017-1 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are still in the process of evaluating the quantitative impact of ASU 2017-1.

10

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-4 (“ASU 2017-4”), Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-4 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 required an entity to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in a business combination. Instead, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test and recognize an impairment charge by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. ASU 2017-4 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Our goodwill impairment tests have not proceeded to Step 2 in any fiscal year presented and the estimated fair values of our golf and country clubs and business, sports and alumni clubs reporting units both exceeded their carrying values by a significant amount as of the date the analysis was last performed during fiscal year 2016.

3. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated VIEs include three managed golf course properties and certain realty interests which we define as “Non-Core Development Entities”. We have determined we are the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as we have the obligation to absorb the majority of losses from and direct activities of these operations. One of these managed golf course property VIEs is financed through a loan payable of $0.5 million collateralized by assets of the entity totaling $4.2 million as of June 13, 2017. The other managed golf course property VIEs are financed through advances from us. Outstanding advances as of June 13, 2017 total $5.4 million compared to recorded assets of $7.4 million. The VIE related to the Non-Core Development Entities is financed through notes which are payable through cash proceeds related to the sale of certain real estate held by the Non-Core Development Entities. Recourse of creditors to these VIEs is limited to the assets of the VIE entities, which total $12.5 million and $11.4 million at June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively.

The following summarizes the carrying amount and classification of the VIEs’ assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, net of intercompany amounts:

	June 13, 2017			December 27, 2016
Current assets	$	1,785		$	1,041
Fixed assets, net	9,818			9,489
Other assets	847			846
Total assets	$	12,450		$	11,376
Current liabilities	$	1,806		$	1,125
Long-term debt	12,829			13,035
Other long-term liabilities	25,417			24,906
Noncontrolling interest	5,237			5,401
Company capital	(32,839		)	(33,091		)
Total liabilities and equity	$	12,450		$	11,376

4. INVESTMENTS

We have an equity method investment in one active golf and country club joint venture with a carrying value of $0.3 million and $0.4 million at June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively. Our share of earnings in the equity investment is included in equity in earnings from unconsolidated ventures in the consolidated condensed statements of operations.

We also have an equity method investment of 10.2% in Avendra, LLC, a purchasing cooperative of hospitality companies. The carrying value of the investment was $3.5 million and $1.1 million at June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively. Our share of earnings in the equity investment is included in equity in earnings from unconsolidated ventures in the consolidated condensed statements of operations. All cash distributions from our equity investment are reported as distribution from investment in unconsolidated ventures within the operating section of our consolidated condensed statements of cash flows.

We also have contractual agreements with the Avendra, LLC joint venture to provide procurement services for our

clubs. We received net volume rebates and allowances totaling $4.4 million during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and $2.9 million during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016.

5. FAIR VALUE

GAAP establishes a three-tiered fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used in fair value calculations. The three levels of inputs are defined as follows:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible by the Company;

Level 2—inputs that are observable in the marketplace other than those inputs classified as Level 1; and

Level 3—inputs that are unobservable in the marketplace and significant to the valuation.

We maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. If a financial instrument uses inputs that fall in different levels of the hierarchy, the instrument is categorized based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value calculation. We recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy on the date of the change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Debt—We estimate the fair value of our debt obligations, excluding capital lease obligations and loan origination fees, as follows, as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016:

	June 13, 2017				December 27, 2016
	Recorded Value		Fair Value		Recorded Value		Fair Value
Level 2 (1)	$	996,528	$	1,035,694	$	996,199	$	1,026,323
Level 3	51,495		42,547		50,274		41,467
Total	$	1,048,023	$	1,078,241	$	1,046,473	$	1,067,790

______________________

(1) The recorded value for Level 2 debt obligations is presented net of the $4.5 million and $4.8 million discount as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively, on the Secured Credit Facilities, as defined in Note 9.

The 2015 Senior Notes and borrowings under the Secured Credit Facilities, as both are defined in Note 9, are considered Level 2. We use quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities to value debt obligations classified as Level 2. All other debt obligations are considered Level 3. We use adjusted quoted prices for similar liabilities to value debt obligations classified as Level 3. Key inputs include: (1) the determination that certain other debt obligations are similar, (2) nonperformance risk, and (3) interest rates. Changes or fluctuations in these assumptions and valuations will result in different estimates of value. The use of different techniques to determine the fair value of these debt obligations could result in different estimates of fair value at the reporting date.

The carrying value of financial instruments including cash, cash equivalents, receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable and other short-term and long-term assets and liabilities approximate their fair values as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include equity method investments, property and equipment, mineral rights, goodwill, trade names, liquor licenses, management contracts and other assets and liabilities recorded during business combinations. Assets and liabilities from business combinations were recorded on our consolidated condensed balance sheets at fair value at the date of acquisition. The key assumptions used in determining these values are considered Level 3 measurements. See Note 11.

12

Property and Equipment—We recognized impairment losses of $3.9 million during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, to adjust the carrying amount of certain property and equipment to its fair value of $1.5 million due primarily to changes in the expected holding period of certain fixed assets, including assets at two golf and country clubs which were divested during the twelve weeks ended June 13, 2017. We recognized no impairment losses during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The valuation methods used to determine fair value included an evaluation of the sales price of comparable real estate properties, a sales comparison approach, an analysis of discounted future cash flows using a risk-adjusted discount rate, an income approach, and consideration of historical cost adjusted for economic obsolescence, a cost approach. The fair value calculations associated with these valuations were based on the expected sales price of the clubs and are classified as Level 3 measurements.

Management Contracts—We evaluate these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through future cash flows. During the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, we recognized impairment losses of $0.2 million to adjust the carrying value of a management contract to its fair value of zero, due to the termination of the related contract. The valuations are classified as a Level 3 measurement and are based on expected future cash flows.

Investments and Other Assets—We evaluate our other assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through future cash flows. There were no impairments recorded during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017. We recognized impairment losses to investments and other assets of $0.5 million during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, to adjust the carrying amount of the investment to its fair value of zero.

9. DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASES

Secured Credit Facilities

Secured Credit Facilities—In 2010, Operations entered into the credit agreement governing the secured credit facilities (the “Secured Credit Facilities”). The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities was subsequently amended in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. As of June 13, 2017, the Secured Credit Facilities are comprised of (i) a $651.0 million term loan facility, and (ii) a revolving credit facility with capacity of $175.0 million with $144.2 million available for borrowing, after deducting $30.8 million of standby letters of credit outstanding. In addition, the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities includes capacity which provides, subject to lender participation, for additional borrowings in revolving or term loan commitments of $125.0 million, and additional borrowings thereafter so long as a senior secured leverage ratio (the “Senior Secured Leverage Ratio”) does not exceed 3.50:1.00.

As of June 13, 2017, the interest rate on the term loan facility is a variable rate calculated as the higher of (i) 3.75% or (ii) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75% and the maturity date of the term loan facility is December 15, 2022.

As of June 13, 2017, the revolving credit commitments mature on January 25, 2021 and borrowings thereunder bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 3.0% per annum. We are required to pay a commitment fee on all undrawn amounts under the revolving credit facility and a fee on all outstanding letters of credit, payable quarterly in arrears.

As long as commitments are outstanding under the revolving credit facility, we are subject to limitations on the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and a total leverage ratio (the “Total Leverage Ratio”). The Senior Secured Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Operations’ Consolidated Senior Secured Debt (exclusive of the 2015 Senior Notes (as defined below)) to Consolidated EBITDA (disclosed as Adjusted EBITDA and defined in Note 12) and is calculated on a pro forma basis, giving effect to current period acquisitions as though they had been consummated on the first day of the period presented. The Total Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Operations’ Consolidated Total Debt (including the 2015 Senior Notes) to Consolidated EBITDA and is also calculated on a pro forma basis. The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities requires us to maintain a Senior Secured Leverage Ratio no greater than 4.50:1.00 and a Total Leverage Ratio of no greater than 5.75:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of June 13, 2017, Operations’ Senior Secured Leverage Ratio was 2.89:1.00 and the Total Leverage ratio was 4.28:1.00.

On May 19, 2017, Operations entered into an eleventh amendment to the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities to decrease the interest rate on the term loan facility to a variable rate calculated as the higher of (a) 3.75% or (b) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75%.

All obligations under the Secured Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Operations’ Parent and each existing and all subsequently acquired or organized direct and indirect restricted subsidiaries of Operations, other than certain excluded subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Secured Credit Facilities are secured, subject to permitted liens and other exceptions, by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all the assets of Operations, and the Guarantors, including, but not limited to (1) a perfected pledge of all the domestic capital stock owned by Operations and the Guarantors, and (2) perfected security interests in and mortgages on substantially all tangible and intangible personal property and material fee-owned property of Operations and the Guarantors, subject to certain exclusions.

2015 Senior Notes

On December 15, 2015, Operations issued $350.0 million of senior notes (the “2015 Senior Notes”), maturing December 15, 2023. Interest on the 2015 Senior Notes accrues at a fixed rate of 8.25% per annum and is payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15. The 2015 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a full and unconditional basis by each Guarantor (other than Operations’ Parent) that guarantees our obligations under the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities.

Notes payable related to certain Non-Core Development Entities

In 1994 and 1995, we issued notes payable to finance a VIE related to our Non-Core Development Entities. The notes and accrued interest are payable through the cash proceeds related to the sale of certain real estate held by these Non-Core Development Entities. As of June 13, 2017, the notes have a principal amount of $11.8 million.

16

Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan

On August 9, 2016, we entered into a secured mortgage loan which was guaranteed by ClubCorp USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Operations, (the “Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan”) for $37.0 million with a maturity date of May 31, 2019. As of June 13, 2017, the note has a principal amount of $36.4 million and accrues interest at a variable rate calculated as 2.90% plus the greater of (i) one month LIBOR or (ii) 0.25%. The proceeds of the Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan were primarily used to repay outstanding balances on previously existing mortgage loan agreements. There is an option to extend the maturity through August 9, 2020 and a second option to extend the maturity through August 9, 2021 upon satisfaction of certain conditions in the loan agreement.

Long-term borrowings and lease commitments as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, are summarized below: 

	June 13, 2017					December 27, 2016
	Carrying Value			Interest Rate		Carrying Value			Interest Rate		Interest Rate Calculation	Maturity

Less discount on the Secured Credit Facilities’ Term Loan	(4,472		)			(4,801		)
Long-term debt	$	1,068,190				$	1,067,071

______________________

(1) As of June 13, 2017, the revolving credit facility had capacity of $175.0 million, which was reduced by the $30.8 million of standby letters of credit outstanding, leaving $144.2 million available for borrowing.

(2) Notes payable and accrued interest related to certain Non-Core Development Entities are payable through the cash proceeds related to the sale of certain real estate held by these Non-Core Development Entities.

10. INCOME TAXES

Holdings files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, numerous state jurisdictions and in three foreign jurisdictions. Income taxes recorded are adjusted to the extent losses or other deductions cannot be utilized in the consolidated federal income tax return. We file state tax returns on a separate company basis or unitary basis as required by law. Additionally, certain subsidiaries of Holdings, owned through lower tier joint ventures, file separate tax returns for federal and state purposes.

Our annual effective income tax rate is determined by the level and composition of pre-tax income and the mix of income subject to varying foreign, state and local taxes. Our tax expense or benefit recognized in our interim financial statements is determined by multiplying the year-to-date income or loss by the annual effective tax rate, which is an estimate of the expected relationship between tax expense or benefit for the full year to the pre-tax income or loss for the full year (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items). Our effective income tax rate for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 was 211.7% and 47.2%, respectively, compared to 41.5% and 36.3% for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, respectively. For the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory federal rate of 35.0% primarily due to state taxes and certain other permanent differences. The relative impact these items have on the effective tax rate varies based on the forecasted amount of pre-tax income or loss for the year.

We are currently under audit by state income tax authorities, but do not have any current assessments related to such audits at this time.

As of June 13, 2017, tax years 2011 - 2016 remain open under statute for U.S. federal and most state tax jurisdictions. In Mexico, the statute of limitations is generally five years from the date of the filing of the tax return for any particular year, including amended returns. Accordingly, in general, tax years 2008 through 2016 remain open under statute; although certain prior years are also open as a result of the tax proceedings described below.

Certain of our Mexican subsidiaries are under audit by the Mexican taxing authorities for the 2008 and 2009 tax years. In 2013, we received two assessments, for approximately $3.0 million each, exclusive of penalties and interest, for two of our Mexican subsidiaries under audit for the 2008 tax year. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest these assessments through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. In March 2017, we received notice of a favorable ruling from the Mexican court presiding over one of the matters such that one of these two assessments was dismissed and is non-appealable by the Mexican taxing authorities. There is no impact to the financial statements from the dismissal as no liability had previously been recorded. We have not recorded a liability related to the remaining 2008 open uncertain tax position as we believe it is more likely than not that we will prevail based on the merits of our position. In 2014, we received an audit assessment for the 2009 tax year for another Mexican subsidiary. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest the assessment through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. We have recorded a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit for $4.6 million, exclusive of penalties and interest, related to this audit. The unrecognized tax benefit has been recorded due to the technical nature of the tax filing position taken by our Mexican subsidiary and uncertainty around the ultimate outcome of this assessment, which we intend to continue to contest.

As of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, we have recorded a total of $8.6 million and $7.0 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties of $3.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively, which are included in other liabilities in the consolidated condensed balance sheets. If we were to prevail on all uncertain tax positions recorded as of June 13, 2017, the net effect would be an income tax benefit of approximately $4.8 million, exclusive of any benefits related to interest and penalties.

18

Management believes it is unlikely that our unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next 12 months given the current status in particular of the matters currently under examination by the Mexican tax authorities. However, as audit outcomes and the timing of related resolutions are subject to significant uncertainties, we will continue to evaluate the tax issues related to these assessments in future periods. In summary, we believe we are adequately reserved for our uncertain tax positions as of June 13, 2017.

Club Dispositions and Management Agreement Terminations

Clubs may be divested when we determine they will be unable to provide a positive contribution to cash flows from operations in future periods and/or when they are determined to be non-strategic holdings. Gains from divestitures are recognized in the period in which operations cease and losses are recognized when we determine that the carrying value is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, we ceased operating three clubs: The Club at Key Center, a leased business club in Cleveland, Ohio, Piedmont Club, a leased business and sports club in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Houston City Club, a leased business and sports club in Houston, Texas. Additionally, the management agreement with Cateechee Golf Club, a public golf facility located in Hartwell, Georgia was terminated. No material gain or loss on divestiture was recorded. These divestitures did not qualify as discontinued operations. On June 13, 2017, we sold Heron Bay Golf Club, a private country club in Locust Grove, Georgia, and Georgia National Golf Club, a private country club in McDonough, Georgia. During the twelve weeks ended June 13, 2017, we recognized an impairment loss of $3.3 million related to the fixed

20

assets at these two clubs, which is included in impairment of assets in the consolidated condensed statements of operations, and a gain of $0.1 million on the sale, which is included in loss on disposals of assets in the consolidated condensed statements of operations. These divestitures did not qualify as discontinued operations.

During the fiscal year ended December 27, 2016, the management agreements with Jefferson Lakeside Country Club, a private country club located in Richmond, Virginia and with Mill Creek Country Club, a private country club located in Mill Creek, Washington were terminated. We closed Greenspoint Club, an owned business and sports club located in Houston, Texas and University Club, a leased business and sports club located in Jacksonville, Florida. Additionally, the lease of Airways Golf Club, a leased public golf facility in Fresno, California, was terminated. No material gain or loss on divestiture was recorded. These divestitures did not qualify as discontinued operations.

12. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We currently have two reportable segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs. These segments are managed separately and discrete financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA, our financial measure of segment profit and loss, is reviewed regularly by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance and allocate resources. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer. We also use Adjusted EBITDA, on a consolidated basis, to assess our ability to service our debt, incur additional debt and meet our capital expenditure requirements. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate as it provides additional information to investors about our performance and investors and lenders have historically used EBITDA-related measures.

EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income taxes, interest and investment income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus or minus impairments, gain or loss on disposition and acquisition of assets, income or loss from divested clubs, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash and other adjustments, equity-based compensation expense and a deferred revenue adjustment. The deferred revenue adjustment to revenues and Adjusted EBITDA within each segment represents estimated deferred revenue using current membership life estimates related to initiation payments that would have been recognized in the applicable period but for the application of purchase accounting. Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definition of Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities and the indenture governing the 2015 Senior Notes contain certain covenants which are based upon specified financial ratios in reference to Adjusted EBITDA, after giving effect to the pro forma impact of acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA as reported is identical to the computation of Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement governing our Secured Credit Facilities, except that for purposes of certain covenants in the credit agreement, a pro forma adjustment is made to Consolidated EBITDA in order to give effect to current period acquisitions as though they had been consummated on the first day of the four quarter period presented. The pro forma impact gives effect to all acquisitions in the four quarters ended June 13, 2017 as though they had been consummated on the first day of the third quarter of fiscal year 2016.

Golf and country club operations consist of private country clubs, golf clubs and public golf facilities. Private country clubs provide at least one 18-hole golf course and various other recreational amenities that are open to members and their guests. Golf clubs provide both private and public golf play and usually offer fewer recreational amenities than private country clubs. Public golf facilities are open to the public and generally provide the same amenities as golf clubs.

Business, sports and alumni club operations consist of business clubs, business/sports clubs, sports clubs and alumni clubs. Business clubs provide a setting for dining, business or social entertainment. Sports clubs provide a variety of recreational facilities and business/sports clubs provide a combination of the amenities available at business clubs and sports clubs. Alumni clubs provide the same amenities as business clubs while targeting alumni and staff of universities.

We also disclose corporate expenses and other operations, which consists of other business activities including ancillary revenues related to alliance arrangements, a portion of the revenue associated with upgrade offerings, reimbursements for certain costs of operations at managed clubs, corporate overhead expenses and shared services. Other operations also includes corporate assets such as cash, goodwill, intangible assets, and loan origination fees. While corporate expenses and other operations is not a segment, disclosing corporate expenses and other operations facilitates the reconciliation from segment results to consolidated results.

13. EARNINGS PER SHARE

GAAP requires that earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations treat unvested share-based payment awards that have non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents as a separate class of securities (participating securities) and that basic EPS be calculated using the two-class method. We have granted RSAs (as defined below) that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends. Such awards are considered participating securities. The two-class method of computing EPS is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. We have also granted RSAs that contain forfeitable rights to dividends. These awards are not considered participating securities and are excluded from the basic weighted-average shares outstanding calculation.

Basic EPS is computed utilizing the two-class method and is calculated on weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented.

Diluted EPS reflects the dilutive effect of equity based awards (potential common shares) that may share in the earnings of ClubCorp when such shares are either issued or vesting restrictions lapse. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the periods presented, utilizing the two-class method for unvested equity-based awards.

Presented below is basic and diluted EPS for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Twelve Weeks Ended								Twenty-Four Weeks Ended
	June 13, 2017				June 14, 2016				June 13, 2017						June 14, 2016
	Basic		Diluted		Basic		Diluted		Basic			Diluted			Basic			Diluted
Numerator for earnings per share	$	658	$	658	$	5,450	$	5,450	$	(6,977	)	$	(6,977	)	$	(3,093	)	$	(3,093	)
Weighted-average shares outstanding	64,555		64,555		64,518		64,518		64,498			64,498			64,496			64,496
Effect of dilutive equity-based awards	—		—		—		38		—			—			—			—
Total Shares	64,555		64,555		64,518		64,556		64,498			64,498			64,496			64,496
Net income (loss) attributable to ClubCorp per share	$	0.01	$	0.01	$	0.08	$	0.08	$	(0.11	)	$	(0.11	)	$	(0.05	)	$	(0.05	)

The basis for the numerator for earnings per share is net income (loss) attributable to ClubCorp. The numerator was adjusted by $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, respectively, for dividends and undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities.

Potential common shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS when the effect of their inclusion would reduce our net loss per share and would be anti-dilutive. There were no potential common shares excluded from the calculation for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017. For the twenty-four weeks ended June 14, 2016 there were less than 0.1 million potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

14. EQUITY

Equity-Based Awards—We have granted equity-based awards to employees and non-employee directors in the form of restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), which restrictions will be removed upon satisfaction of time-based vesting requirements, subject to the holder remaining in continued service with us. We have also granted performance restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and “Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSUs”, both of which will convert into shares of our common stock upon satisfaction of (i) time-based vesting requirements and (ii) the applicable performance-based requirements subject to the holder remaining in continued service with us. The number of awards under the PSU and Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU grants represents the target number of such units that may be earned. The PSU awards performance-based requirements are measured based on Holdings’ total shareholder return over the applicable performance periods compared with a peer group. The Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU awards vest upon the achievement by the 2017 Same Store Clubs (as defined in the form of award), on a consolidated

24

basis, of a specified level of Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2018. We measure the cost of services rendered in exchange for equity-based awards based upon the grant date fair market value of the respective equity-based awards. The value is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU awards include performance conditions and expense is accrued when achievement of the performance conditions is considered probable. No expense has been recognized for these awards.

The fair market value of each RSA was estimated using Holdings’ closing share price on the date of grant. The fair market value of each PSU was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis which generates a distribution of possible future stock prices for Holdings and the peer group from the grant date to the end of the applicable performance period. The fair market value of each Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU was estimated using Holdings’ closing share price on the date of grant.

The following table shows total equity-based compensation expense included in the consolidated condensed statements of operations:

	Twelve Weeks Ended						Twenty-Four Weeks Ended
	June 13, 2017			June 14, 2016			June 13, 2017			June 14, 2016
Club operating costs exclusive of depreciation	$	949		$	897		$	1,712		$	1,267
Selling, general and administrative	1,189			933			2,365			1,733
Pre-tax equity-based compensation expense	2,138			1,830			4,077			3,000
Less: benefit for income taxes	(76		)	(683		)	(813		)	(1,120		)
Equity-based compensation expense, net of tax	$	2,062		$	1,147		$	3,264		$	1,880

As of June 13, 2017, there was approximately $19.4 million of unrecognized expense related to non-vested, equity-based awards granted to employees, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years.

The Amended and Restated ClubCorp Holdings, Inc. 2012 Stock Award Plan (the “Stock Plan”) provides for an aggregate amount of no more than 4.0 million shares of common stock to be available for awards. The Stock Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance-based awards and other equity-based incentive awards. To date, we have granted RSAs, PSUs, Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSUs and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Stock Plan. As of June 13, 2017, approximately 0.8 million shares of common stock were available for future issuance under the Stock Plan. Treasury stock may be used to settle awards under the Stock Plan.

The following table summarizes RSA, PSU and Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU activity for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017:

	Restricted stock awards				Performance-based awards (1)
	Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Target shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

The repurchase program may be executed from time to time, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, including through plans designed under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. During the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, we did not purchase any shares under the share repurchase plan. During the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, we purchased 104,325 shares under the share repurchase plan. As of June 13, 2017, approximately $47.7 million remained authorized under the share repurchase plan.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We routinely enter into contractual obligations to procure assets used in the day to day operations of our business and to invest in our information technology systems. As of June 13, 2017, we had capital commitments of $23.1 million.

We currently have sales and use tax audits in progress. We believe the potential for a liability related to the outcome of these audits may exist. However, we believe that the outcome of these audits would not materially affect our consolidated condensed financial statements.

Certain of our Mexican subsidiaries are under audit by the Mexican taxing authorities for the 2008 and 2009 tax years. In 2013, we received two assessments, for approximately $3.0 million each, exclusive of penalties and interest, for two of our Mexican subsidiaries under audit for the 2008 tax year. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest these assessments through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. In March 2017, we received notice of a favorable ruling from the Mexican court presiding over one of the matters such that one of these two assessments was dismissed and is non-appealable by the Mexican taxing authorities. There is no impact to the financial statements from the dismissal as no liability had previously been recorded. We have not recorded a liability related to the remaining 2008 open uncertain tax position as we believe it is more likely than not that we will prevail based on the merits of our position. In 2014, we received an audit assessment for the 2009 tax year for another Mexican subsidiary. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest the assessment through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. We have recorded a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit for $4.6 million, exclusive of penalties and interest, related to this audit. The unrecognized tax benefit has been recorded due to the technical nature of the tax filing position taken by our Mexican subsidiary and uncertainty around the ultimate outcome of this assessment, which we intend to continue to contest.

We are currently under audit by state income tax authorities, but do not have any current assessments related to such audits at this time.

We are subject to certain pending or threatened litigation and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such legal proceedings and other claims cannot be predicted with certainty, after review and consultation with legal counsel, we believe that any potential liability from these matters would not materially affect our consolidated condensed financial statements.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We had receivables of $0.2 million and $0.2 million, as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively, for outstanding advances from a golf club joint venture in which we have an equity method investment. We recorded $0.1 million and $0.1 million in management fees from this venture, in the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. There were no material management fees recorded for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016. As of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, we had a receivable of $2.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively, for volume rebates from Avendra, LLC, the supplier firm in which we have an equity method investment. See Note 4.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On June 20, 2017, we purchased Medina Golf and Country Club, a private country club in Medina, Minnesota, for a purchase price of $4.7 million. Due to the timing of this acquisition, the purchase price allocation was not yet available for disclosure as of the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

On June 20, 2017, we borrowed $20.0 million on the revolving credit facility.

On July 9, 2017, our board of directors declared a cash dividend of $8.5 million, or $0.13 per share of common stock, to all common stockholders of record at the close of business on July 21, 2017. This dividend is expected to be paid on July 28, 2017.

On July 9, 2017, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Constellation Club Parent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Constellation Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Holdings. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of certain funds (the “Apollo Funds”) managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”). The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain shares owned by us, Parent or any of our or Parent’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries) will be converted into the right to receive $17.12 per share in cash, without interest and subject to tax withholding (the “Merger Consideration”).

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of Holdings, including a covenant which obligates us to generally conduct our business in the ordinary course of business in all material respects consistent with past practice from the date of the Merger Agreement through the Effective Time and restricts our ability to take certain actions, including our ability to declare and/or pay dividends (other than the one-time quarterly dividend of $0.13 per share declared on July 9, 2017) and to repurchase shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program.

The Merger Agreement also provides for certain termination rights for both us and Parent. We are obligated to pay Parent a termination fee of $34.2 million in certain circumstances, including (a) if our board of directors changes its recommendation and Parent terminates the Merger Agreement, (b) if, among other things, our stockholders do not approve the Merger Agreement at the stockholder meeting or the Merger is not consummated by the Outside Date (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) and we enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) within 12 months after such termination, or (c) if we terminate the Merger Agreement in accordance with certain procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with a third party with respect to a Superior Proposal. The Merger Agreement also provides that Parent will be required to pay us a reverse termination fee of $74.2 million if (x) the conditions to our closing obligation are satisfied, (y) Parent and Merger Sub fail to consummate the closing when required and (z) we terminate the Merger Agreement after notifying Parent that we are irrevocably ready, willing and able to consummate the closing. In addition, we will be required to reimburse all fees and expenses that Parent incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, up to $6.25 million, if the Merger Agreement is terminated by Parent due to a material breach by us of our obligations under the Merger Agreement or if the Merger Agreement is terminated by either Parent or us due to a failure to obtain our stockholders’ approval of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger has been unanimously approved by our board of directors. Closing of the transaction is subject to the approval of our stockholders, regulatory approvals and customary conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017.

27

The Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan contains language whereby we would be in default upon a change in control. Effective on July 9, 2017, we obtained a waiver to this change in control event of default as it relates to The Merger.

Overview

We are a leading owner-operator of private golf and country clubs and business, sports and alumni clubs in North America. As of June 13, 2017, our portfolio of 204 owned or operated clubs, with over184,000 memberships, served over 430,000 individual members. Our operations are organized into two principal business segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs. We own, lease or operate through joint ventures 152 golf and country clubs and manage eight golf and country clubs. Likewise, we lease or operate through a joint venture 41 business, sports and alumni clubs and manage three business, sports and alumni clubs. We are the largest owner of private golf and country clubs in the United States and own the underlying real estate for 129 of our 160 golf and country clubs. Our golf and country clubs include 137 private country clubs, 16 semi-private clubs and seven public golf courses. Our business, sports and alumni clubs include 29 business clubs, 7 business and sports clubs, six alumni clubs, and two sports clubs. Our facilities are located in 27 states, the District of Columbia and two foreign countries.

Our golf and country clubs are designed to appeal to the entire family, fostering member loyalty which we believe allows us to capture a greater share of our member households’ discretionary leisure spending. Our business, sports and alumni clubs are designed to provide our members with private upscale locations where they can work, network and socialize. We offer our members privileges throughout our entire collection of clubs, and we believe that our diverse facilities, recreational offerings and social programming enhance our ability to attract and retain members across a number of demographic groups. We also have alliances with other clubs, resorts and facilities located worldwide through which our members can enjoy additional access, discounts, special offerings and privileges outside of our owned and operated clubs. Given the breadth of our products, services and amenities, we believe we offer a compelling value proposition to our members.

Recent Developments

On July 9, 2017, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with affiliates of certain funds (the “Apollo Funds”) managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC pursuant to which affiliates of the Apollo Funds will acquire us for $17.12 per share in an all-cash transaction. The transaction has been unanimously approved by our board of directors. Closing of the transaction is subject to the approval of our stockholders, regulatory approvals and customary conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017. As a result of the transaction, we will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of affiliates of the Apollo Funds and our shares of common stock will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

For additional information regarding this transaction, see Note 17 to the consolidated condensed financial statements within Item 1 of this report on Form 10-Q.

Factors Affecting our Business

A significant percentage of our revenue is derived from membership dues, and we believe these dues together with the geographic diversity of our clubs help to provide us with a recurring revenue base that limits the impact of fluctuations in regional economic conditions. We believe our efforts to position our clubs as focal points in communities with offerings that can appeal to the entire family has enhanced member loyalty and mitigated attrition rates in our membership base compared to the industry as a whole.

30

We believe the strength and size of our portfolio of clubs combined with the stability of our mass affluent membership base will enable us to maintain our position as an industry leader in the future. As the largest owner-operator of private golf and country clubs in the United States, we enjoy economies of scale and a leadership position. We expect to strategically expand and upgrade our portfolio through acquisitions and targeted capital investments. As part of our targeted capital investment program, we plan to focus on facility changes and upgrades to improve our members’ experience and the utilization of our facilities and amenities, which we believe will yield positive financial results.

Enrollment and Retention of Members

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain members at our clubs and maintain or increase usage of our facilities. Historically, we have experienced varying levels of membership enrollment and attrition rates and, in certain areas, decreased levels of usage of our facilities. We devote substantial efforts to maintaining member and guest satisfaction, although many of the factors affecting club membership and facility usage are beyond our control.

We offer various programs at our clubs designed to minimize future attrition rates by increasing member satisfaction and usage. These include programs that are designed to engage current and newly enrolled members in activities and groups that go beyond their home club. Additionally, these programs may grant our members discounts on meals and other items in order to increase their familiarity with and usage of their club’s amenities. One such program is our Optimal Network Experiences program (“O.N.E.”), an upgrade product that combines what we refer to as “comprehensive club, community and world benefits”. With this offering, members typically receive 50% off a la carte dining at their home club; preferential offerings to clubs in their community (including those owned by us), as well as at local spas, restaurants and other venues; and complimentary privileges currently to more than 300 golf and country, business, sporting and athletic clubs when traveling outside of their community with additional offerings and discounts to more than 1,000 renowned hotels, resorts, restaurants and entertainment venues. As of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, approximately 56% and 54% of our memberships were enrolled in one or more of our upgrade programs, respectively. As of June 13, 2017, 156 of our clubs offered O.N.E., compared to 153 as of December 27, 2016.

The following table presents our membership counts for clubs which we own, lease or operate through a joint venture, excluding managed clubs, at the end of the periods indicated.

	June 13, 2017	December 27, 2016	Change	% Change
Golf and Country Clubs (1)	124,028	120,076	3,952	3.3	%
Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs (1)	50,320	50,149	171	0.3	%
Total memberships at end of period (1)	174,348	170,225	4,123	2.4	%

_______________________

(1) Membership counts exclude memberships at managed clubs. As of June 13, 2017, we had 9,692 memberships at managed clubs, including 4,314 memberships at golf and country clubs and 5,378 memberships at business, sports and alumni clubs, excluding certain international club memberships.

Seasonality of Demand and Fluctuations in Quarterly Results

The first, second and third fiscal quarters each consist of twelve weeks, whereas, the fourth quarter consists of sixteen or seventeen weeks of operations. Our business clubs typically generate a greater share of their yearly revenues in the fourth fiscal quarter, which includes the holiday and year-end party season. Usage of our golf and country club facilities typically declines significantly during the first and fourth fiscal quarters, when colder temperatures and shorter days reduce the demand for golf and golf-related activities. As a result of these factors, we usually generate a disproportionate share of our revenues and cash flows in the second, third and fourth fiscal quarters of each year and have lower revenues and cash flows in the first quarter. In addition, the timing of purchases, sales, leasing of facilities or divestitures, has caused and may cause our results of operations to vary significantly in otherwise comparable periods. To clarify variations caused by newly acquired or divested operations, we employ a same store analysis for year-over-year comparability purposes. See “Basis of Presentation—Same Store Analysis”.

Our results can also be affected by non-seasonal and severe weather patterns. Periods of extremely hot, dry, cold or rainy weather in a given region can be expected to impact our golf-related revenue for that region. Similarly, extended periods of low rainfall can affect the cost and availability of water needed to irrigate our golf courses and can adversely affect results for facilities in the impacted region. Keeping turf grass conditions at a satisfactory level to attract play on our golf courses requires significant amounts of water. Our ability to irrigate a course could be adversely impacted by a drought or other water

31

shortage, which we have experienced from time to time. A severe drought affecting a large number of properties could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Further, the timing of distributions from our equity method investments, including Avendra, LLC, a purchasing cooperative of hospitality companies, varies due to factors outside of our control. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in Note 12 of our consolidated condensed financial statements included elsewhere herein, is impacted when cash distributions from equity method investments vary from the equity in earnings recognized for the related investments.

Reinvention Capital Investments

We continue to identify and prioritize capital projects and believe the reinvention of our clubs through strategic capital investments help drive membership sales, facility usage and member retention. A significant portion of our invested capital is used to add reinvention elements to “major reinvention” clubs, defined as clubs receiving $750,000 or more gross capital spend on a project basis, as we believe these discretionary club enhancements represent opportunities to increase revenues and generate a positive return on our investment, although we cannot guarantee such returns. Elements of reinvention capital expenditures include “Touchdown Rooms”, which are small private meeting rooms allowing members to hold impromptu private meetings while leveraging the other services of their club. “Anytime Lounges” provide a contemporary and casual atmosphere to work and network, while “Media Rooms” provide state-of-the-art facilities to enjoy various forms of entertainment. Additional reinvention elements include refitted fitness centers, enhanced pool area amenities such as shade cabanas, pool slides and splash pads, redesigned golf practice areas for use by beginners to avid golfers, and newly created or updated indoor and outdoor dining and social gathering areas designed to take advantage of the expansive views and natural beauty of our clubs.

Club Acquisitions and Dispositions

We continually explore opportunities to expand our business through select acquisitions of attractive properties. We also evaluate joint ventures and management opportunities that allow us to expand our operations and increase our recurring revenue base without substantial capital outlay. We believe that the fragmented nature of the private club industry presents significant opportunities for us to expand our portfolio by leveraging our operational expertise and by taking advantage of market conditions.

The table below summarizes the number and type of club acquisitions and dispositions during the periods indicated:

	Golf & Country Clubs									Business, Sports & Alumni Clubs

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to use estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this report. We base these estimates and assumptions upon the best information available to us at the time the estimates or assumptions are made. Accordingly, our actual results could differ materially from our estimates. The most significant estimates made by management include the expected life of an active membership over which we amortize initiation fees and deposits, our incremental borrowing rate which is used to accrete membership initiation deposit liabilities, assumptions and judgments used in estimating unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain tax positions and inputs for impairment testing of goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets.

For additional information about our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the disclosure included in our 2016 Annual Report.

Basis of Presentation

Total revenues recorded in our two principal business segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs, are comprised mainly of revenues from membership dues (including upgrade dues), food and beverage operations and golf operations. Operating expenses recorded in our two principal business segments primarily consist of labor expenses, food and beverage costs, golf course maintenance costs and general and administrative costs.

We also disclose corporate expenses and other operations, which consists of other business activities including ancillary revenues related to alliance arrangements, a portion of the revenue associated with upgrade offerings, reimbursements for certain costs of operations at managed clubs, corporate overhead expenses and shared services. Corporate expenses and other operations also includes corporate assets such as cash, goodwill, intangible assets, and loan origination fees.

33

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a key financial measure used by our management to (1) internally measure our operating performance, (2) evaluate segment performance and allocate resources and support certain valuation analyses and (3) assess our ability to service our debt, incur additional debt, make acquisitions, pay dividends and make capital expenditures. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and lenders as a performance measure because it adjusts our operating results to be reflective of our core, ongoing, operating performance. As such, Adjusted EBITDA provides relevant information about trends for the periods presented and adjusts for the impact of certain items on a consistent basis from period to period. We believe this measure allows investors and lenders to evaluate performance using the same metrics that management uses to evaluate performance and plan annual budgets. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is usefulas a liquidity measure because it demonstrates our ability to service our debt, incur additional debt, make acquisitions, pay dividends and make capital expenditures. See Note 12 of our consolidated condensed financial statements included elsewhere herein for the definition of Adjusted EBITDA.

Same Store Analysis

We employ “same store” analysis techniques for a variety of management purposes. By our definition, clubs are evaluated at the beginning of each year and considered same store once they have been fully operational for one fiscal year. Newly acquired or opened clubs, clubs added under management agreements and divested clubs are not classified as same store; however, clubs held for sale are considered same store until they are divested. Once a club has been divested, it is removed from the same store classification for all periods presented. See summarized financial information by segment in Note 12 of our consolidated condensed financial statements included elsewhere herein. For same store year-over-year comparisons, clubs must be open the entire year for both years in the comparison to be considered same store, therefore, same store facility counts and operating results may vary depending on the years of comparison. We believe this approach provides for a more effective analysis tool because it allows us to assess the results of our core operating strategies by tracking the performance of our established same store clubs without the inclusion of divested clubs and newly acquired or opened clubs.

Our fiscal year consists of a 52/53 week period ending on the last Tuesday of December. Our first, second and third fiscal quarters each consist of twelve weeks while our fourth fiscal quarter consists of sixteen or seventeen weeks.

(1) Comprised of club operating costs, cost of food and beverage sales and provision for doubtful accounts.

Total revenues of $276.4 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $7.4 million, or 2.7%, over the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. Same store golf and country club revenue increased by $3.8 million driven primarily by increases in same store dues, food and beverage revenue and golf operations revenue. These factors are discussed below under “Segment Operations—Golf and Country Clubs”. In addition, our same store business, sports and alumni club segment revenue decreased $0.3 million primarily due to decreases in food and beverage revenue offset by increases in other revenue and same store dues. These factors are discussed below under “Segment Operations—Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs”. Additionally, total revenue attributable to golf and country club properties added in 2016 and 2017 increased $5.1 million. Revenue from other operations increased $1.5 million, including $0.7 million in reimbursements for certain operating costs at same store managed clubs. Revenue related to divested clubs decreased $3.0 million, including $0.6 million in reimbursements for certain operating costs at divested managed clubs. The reimbursements for operating costs at managed clubs do not include a markup and have no net impact on operating income, as such costs are included within club operating costs and expenses.

Club operating costs and expenses totaling $203.2 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $6.9 million, or 3.5%, compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The increase is largely due to $5.6 million of club operating costs and expenses from club properties added in 2016 and 2017, a $1.4 million increase in variable labor costs, food and beverage cost of goods sold and retail cost of goods sold associated with higher revenues, a $0.8 million increase in service fees and a $0.5 million increase in rent offset by a $2.1 million decrease in costs related to divested clubs. Additionally, certain operating costs increased $0.7 million at same store managed clubs and decreased $0.6 million at divested managed clubs. These operating costs at managed clubs are offset by reimbursements recorded within revenue, resulting in no net impact on operating income. The remaining change is primarily comprised of an increase in other expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.0 million, or 4.2%, during the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. Depreciation expense increased $1.4 million due to our increased fixed asset balances primarily related to club acquisitions, along with the related impact of reinvention and expansion capital spend. Amortization expense decreased $0.4 million largely due to trade names and member relationships that were fully amortized during fiscal year 2016. During the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017, depreciation and amortization for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $20.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively. During the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016, depreciation and amortization for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni clubs was $19.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively. These expenses were primarily comprised of depreciation on our property and equipment and amortization of intangibles related to management contracts.

38

Loss on disposal of assets for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016 of $2.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively, were largely comprised of losses on asset retirements during the normal course of business, including property and equipment disposed of in connection with our increased capital spend on reinventions and renovations. Our losses for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016 were offset by $2.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of insurance proceeds received primarily related to rain and flooding events, that occurred during fiscal year 2016. During the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017, loss on disposal of assets for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $1.7 million and $0.2 million, respectively. During the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016, loss on disposal of assets for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni clubs was $2.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively. These expenses related primarily to asset retirements associated with our club reinventions and in the ordinary course of business offset by insurance proceeds received primarily related to rain and flooding events, that occurred during fiscal year 2016.

Impairment of assets of $4.2 million and $0.5 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, were largely comprised of impairment losses to property and equipment at certain of our clubs to adjust the carrying amount of certain property and equipment to its fair value, including assets at two golf and country clubs which were divested during the twelve weeks ended June 13, 2017, and impairment losses to management contract intangible assets. During the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, impairment of assets for Golf and Country Clubs was $3.5 million and zero, respectively. During the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, impairment of assets for Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

We recognize the earnings of one of our unconsolidated ventures, Avendra, LLC, within equity in earnings or within interest and investment income, depending on the timing of cash distributions and the investment balance. Equity in earnings from unconsolidated ventures was $1.4 million and $2.1 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $24.7 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $7.2 million, or 41.0%, compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The major components of selling, general and administrative expenses are shown in the table below.

	Twelve Weeks Ended
Components of selling, general and administrative expense (1)	June 13, 2017		June 14, 2016		Change		% Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Selling, general and administrative expense, excluding equity-based compensation and capital structure costs	$	22,715	$	16,361	$	6,354	38.8	%
Capital structure costs	770		207		563		272.0	%
Equity-based compensation	1,189		933		256		27.4	%

______________________

(1) Selling, general and administrative expense, excluding equity-based compensation and capital structure costs, is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe this measure is informative to investors because excluding capital structure costs and equity-based compensation will allow investors to more meaningfully compare our results between periods.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding equity-based compensation and capital structure costs, were $22.7 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017, an increase of $6.4 million, or 38.8%, compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. This included increased costs of $4.4 million related to the design and implementation phase of our centralization and transformation of administrative processes, finance processes and related IT systems, an increase of $1.0 million in professional and legal fees associated with our strategic alternatives review and an increase of $0.5 million in acquisition costs. The remaining change is comprised of an increase in general and administrative expenses.

Capital structure costs included within selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.8 million and $0.2 million during the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, were comprised of costs related to amendments to the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities.

39

Interest expense totaled $19.2 million and $19.9 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. The $0.7 million decrease in interest expense is primarily comprised of a $0.7 million decrease in interest on the term loan facility due primarily to a lower principal balance outstanding and a lower interest rate during the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. During the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017, interest expense for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $4.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively. During the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016, interest expense for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni clubs was $4.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The interest expense for Golf and Country Clubs was primarily driven by accretion expense related to membership initiation payments along with interest expense related to capital leases. The interest expense for Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was primarily driven by accretion expense related to membership initiation payments.

Income tax benefit for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $5.6 million compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016, and the effective tax rates were 211.7% and 41.5% for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. The amount of tax expense or benefit recognized in interim financial statements is determined by multiplying the year-to-date pre-tax income or loss by the annual effective tax rate, which is an estimate of the expected relationship between tax expense or benefit for the full year to the pre-tax income or loss for the full year (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items). For the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory federal rate of 35.0% primarily due to state taxes and certain other permanent differences. The relative impact these items have on the effective tax rate varies based on the forecasted amount of pre-tax income or loss for the year.

Total revenue for same store golf and country clubs increased $3.8 million, or 1.8%, for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016 due primarily to increases in same store dues, food and beverage revenue and golf operations revenue. Same store dues revenue increased $2.3 million, or 2.3%, due primarily to an increase in same store memberships and greater club participation in the O.N.E. program. Food and beverage revenue increased $1.1 million, or 2.0%, due primarily to a 2.3% increase in a la carte revenue. Golf operations revenue increased $0.5 million, or 0.9%, due largely to higher cart fee and greens fee revenue as a result of favorable weather leading to more golf rounds and an increase in retail sales.

Club operating costs and expenses include costs such as payroll and payroll related expenses, costs of food and beverage sales, costs of retail sales, golf operations and golf course maintenance expenses, utilities and property taxes. Club operating costs and expenses, excluding costs of food and beverage sales, for same store golf and country clubs increased $3.2 million, or 2.5%, for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The increase is primarily related to higher payroll expense, higher administrative expenses and higher retail cost of sales due primarily to increases in retail sales. These operating costs, as a percentage of total same store club revenue, were 61.5% and 61.1% for the same periods, respectively.

41

Costs of food and beverage sales for same store golf and country clubs increased $0.5 million, or 2.8%, for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016, due primarily to increases in food and beverage sales primarily driven by increased usage of the O.N.E. program. These costs, as a percentage of food and beverage revenues, were 35.1% and 34.8% for the same periods, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA for same store golf and country clubs remained flat for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016, largely due to an increase in higher margin dues revenue primarily driven by an increase in same store membership, offset by an increase in club operating costs. As a result, same store Adjusted EBITDA margin for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 decreased 50 basis points over the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016.

Total revenues for same store business, sports and alumni clubs decreased $0.3 million, or 0.6%, for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twelve weeks endedJune 14, 2016 primarily due to a decrease in food and beverage revenue, partially offset by an increase in other revenue and same store dues. Food and beverage revenue decreased $0.7 million, or 2.7%, due primarily to a decrease in private party revenue and a la carte revenue. Dues revenue increased $0.1 million, or 0.7%, due to an increase in upgrade dues related to the O.N.E program partially offset by a decline in same store social memberships.

Total revenues of $497.6 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $13.8 million, or 2.8%, over the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. Same store golf and country club revenue increased by $9.0 million driven primarily by increases in same store dues, golf operations revenue and food and beverage revenue. These factors are discussed below under “Segment Operations—Golf and Country Clubs”. In addition, our same store business, sports and alumni club segment revenue remained flat primarily due to a decrease in food and beverage revenue offset by increases in other revenue and same store dues. These factors are discussed below under “Segment Operations—Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs”. Additionally, total revenue attributable to golf and country club properties added in 2016 and 2017 increased $7.2 million. Revenue from other operations increased $2.0 million, including $1.1 million in reimbursements for certain operating costs at same store managed clubs. Revenue related to divested clubs decreased $4.7 million, including $0.9 million in reimbursements for certain operating costs at divested managed clubs. The reimbursements for operating costs at managed clubs do not include a markup and have no net impact on operating income, as such costs are included within club operating costs and expenses.

Club operating costs and expenses totaling $370.1 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $12.2 million, or 3.4%, compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The increase is largely due to $8.2 million of club operating costs and expenses from club properties added in 2016 and 2017, a $2.8 million increase in variable labor costs, food and beverage cost of goods sold and retail cost of goods sold associated with higher revenues, a $1.9 million increase in insurance expense related to higher claims, a $1.5 million increase in service fees, a $0.6 million increase in rent, a $0.5 million increase in equity-based compensation offset by a $3.7 million decrease in costs related to divested clubs. Additionally, certain operating costs at managed clubs increased $1.1 million at same store clubs and decreased $0.9 million at divested clubs. These operating costs at managed clubs are offset by reimbursements recorded within revenue, resulting in no net impact on operating income. The remaining change is primarily comprised of an increase in other expenses.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.8 million, or 3.7%, during the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. Depreciation expense increased $2.6 million due to our increased fixed asset balances primarily related to club acquisitions, along with the related impact of reinvention and expansion capital spend. Amortization expense decreased $0.8 million largely due to trade names and member relationships that were fully amortized during fiscal year 2016. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, depreciation and amortization for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $41.1 million and $4.9 million, respectively. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, depreciation and amortization for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni

44

clubs was $39.7 million and $5.4 million, respectively. These expenses were primarily comprised of depreciation on our property and equipment and amortization of intangibles related to management contracts.

Loss on disposal of assets for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016 of $4.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively, were largely comprised of losses on asset retirements during the normal course of business, including property and equipment disposed of in connection with our increased capital spend on reinventions and renovations. Our losses for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016 were offset by $2.9 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of insurance proceeds received primarily related to rain and flooding events, that occurred during fiscal year 2016. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, loss on disposal of assets for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $4.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, loss on disposal of assets for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni clubs was $5.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. These expenses related primarily to asset retirements associated with our club reinventions and in the ordinary course of business offset by insurance proceeds received primarily related to rain and flooding events, that occurred during fiscal year 2016.

Impairment of assets of $4.2 million and $0.5 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, were largely comprised of impairment losses to property and equipment at certain of our clubs to adjust the carrying amount of certain property and equipment to its fair value, including assets at two golf and country clubs which were divested during the twelve weeks ended June 13, 2017 and impairment losses to management contract intangible assets. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, impairment of assets for Golf and Country Clubs was $3.5 million and zero, respectively. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, impairment of assets for Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

We recognize the earnings of one of our unconsolidated ventures, Avendra, LLC, within equity in earnings or within interest and investment income, depending on the timing of cash distributions and the investment balance. Equity in earnings from unconsolidated ventures was $3.6 million and $2.1 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of $46.0 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $8.8 million, or 23.5%, compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The major components of selling, general and administrative expenses are shown in the table below.

______________________

(1) Selling, general and administrative expense, excluding equity-based compensation and capital structure costs, is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe this measure is informative to investors because excluding capital structure costs and equity-based compensation will allow investors to more meaningfully compare our results between periods.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding equity-based compensation and capital structure costs, were $42.8 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, an increase of $8.3 million, or 24.1%, compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. This included increased costs of $6.2 million related to the design and implementation phase of our centralization and transformation of administrative processes, finance processes and related IT systems, an increase of $3.0 million in legal settlement expenses and an increase of $1.3 million in professional and legal fees associated with our strategic alternatives review. These increases were offset by $1.9 million of lower costs related to our initial compliance with SOX 404(b) and a $0.7 million decrease in severance expense. We also had a $0.4 million decrease in ongoing support costs, including payroll, costs related to software agreements and service fees as part of our centralization and transformation of administrative processes, finance processes and related IT systems. The remaining change is comprised of an increase in general and administrative expenses.

45

Capital structure costs included within selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.8 million and $1.0 million during the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, were comprised of costs related to amendments to the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities.

Interest expense totaled $38.8 million and $40.4 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. The $1.6 million decrease in interest expense is primarily comprised of a $1.3 million decrease in interest on the term loan facility due primarily to a lower principal balance outstanding and a lower interest rate during the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016 and a $0.3 million decrease in interest on our mortgage loans due primarily to a lower interest rate during the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, interest expense for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was $8.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, interest expense for Golf and Country Clubs and Business, Sports and Alumni clubs was $9.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively. The interest expense for Golf and Country Clubs was primarily driven by accretion expense related to membership initiation payments along with interest expense related to capital leases. The interest expense for Business, Sports and Alumni Clubs was primarily driven by accretion expense related to membership initiation payments.

Income tax benefit for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 increased $4.6 million compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, and the effective tax rates were 47.2% and 36.3% for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. The amount of tax expense or benefit recognized in interim financial statements is determined by multiplying the year-to-date pre-tax income or loss by the annual effective tax rate, which is an estimate of the expected relationship between tax expense or benefit for the full year to the pre-tax income or loss for the full year (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items). For the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory federal rate of 35.0% primarily due to state taxes and certain other permanent differences. The relative impact these items have on the effective tax rate varies based on the forecasted amount of pre-tax income or loss for the year.

Total revenue for same store golf and country clubs increased $9.0 million, or 2.3%, for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016 due primarily to increases in same store dues, golf operations revenue and food and beverage revenue. Same store dues revenue increased $5.5 million, or 2.9%, due primarily to an increase in same store memberships and greater club participation in the O.N.E. program. Golf operations revenue increased $1.9 million, or 2.3%, due largely to higher cart fee and greens fee revenue as a result of favorable weather leading to more golf rounds and an increase in retail sales. Food and beverage revenue increased $1.7 million, or 2.0%, due primarily to a 2.4% increase in a la carte revenue.

Club operating costs and expenses include costs such as payroll and payroll related expenses, costs of food and beverage sales, costs of retail sales, golf operations and golf course maintenance expenses, utilities and property taxes. Club operating costs and expenses, excluding costs of food and beverage sales, for same store golf and country clubs increased $5.2 million, or 2.2%, for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The increase is primarily related to higher payroll expense, higher administrative expenses and higher retail cost of sales due primarily to increases in retail sales. These operating costs, as a percentage of total same store club revenue, were 61.9% and 62.0% for the same periods, respectively.

47

Costs of food and beverage sales for same store golf and country clubs increased $1.2 million, or 3.8%, for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, due primarily to increases in food and beverage sales primarily driven by increased usage of the O.N.E. program. These costs, as a percentage of food and beverage revenues, were 37.1% and 36.4% for the same periods, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA for same store golf and country clubs increased $2.5 million, or 2.2%, for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, largely due to an increase in higher margin dues revenue primarily driven by an increase in same store memberships and an increase in golf operations revenue combined with well controlled variable operating costs and expenses. As a result, same store Adjusted EBITDA margin for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 remained flat compared to the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We operate through our subsidiaries and have no material assets other than the stock of our subsidiaries. Our ability to pay dividends is dependent on our receipt of dividends or other distributions from our subsidiaries and borrowings under the Secured Credit Facilities, the 2015 Senior Notes and other debt instruments.

Our primary goal as it relates to liquidity and capital resources is to attain and retain the right level of debt and cash to execute strategic objectives, maintain and fund expansions, replacement projects and other capital investments at our clubs, be poised for external growth and pay declared dividends to our stockholders. Historically, we have financed our business through cash flows from operations and debt.

We anticipate that cash flows from operations will be our primary source of cash over the next twelve months. We believe current assets and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet anticipated working capital needs, capital expenditures and debt service obligations. Prior to our entry into the Merger Agreement, our board declared the payment of quarterly dividends pursuant to our dividend policy. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2016, our Board of Directors authorized a repurchase of up to $50 million of our common stock with an expiration date of December 31, 2017. Prior to our entry into the Merger Agreement, the repurchase program was executed from time to time, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, including through plans designed under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We may also, from time to time in our sole discretion, purchase, redeem or retire our 2015 Senior Notes, through tender offers, in privately negotiated or open market transactions or otherwise. We plan to use excess cash reserves, our revolving credit facility, proceeds from the issuance of debt or equity, or a combination thereof to expand the business through capital improvement and expansion projects and strategically selected club acquisitions.

49

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, as of July 9, 2017 we are prohibited from, among other things, issuing equity securities to raise capital, declaring and paying dividends on our common stock (other than the one-time quarterly dividend of $0.13 per share declared on July 9, 2017) and repurchasing shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program. In addition, the Merger Agreement limits, among other things, our ability to incur additional indebtedness.

As of June 13, 2017, cash and cash equivalents totaled $52.0 million and we had $144.2 million available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility of the Secured Credit Facilities for total liquidity of $196.2 million. Subsequent to

the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, on June 20, 2017, we borrowed $20.0 million on the revolving credit facility.

As of July 12, 2017, we had $124.2 million available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operations totaled $62.4 million and $70.2 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. The $7.8 million decrease in operating cash flows is due largely to a $7.6 million decrease due to changes in working capital primarily driven by timing of certain trade payables and member billing cycles, a $2.5 million increase due to the change in other long-term liabilities and a $3.1 million decrease due to the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Cash Flows used in Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $64.9 million and $53.3 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. The $11.6 million increase in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to the $8.7 million increase in cash used for the acquisition of clubs and a $5.5 million increase in capital spent to maintain, renovate and reinvent our existing properties offset by a $2.4 million increase of insurance proceeds received during the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, primarily related to rain and flooding events, that occurred during fiscal year 2016.

Cash Flows used in Financing Activities

Cash flows used in financing activities totaled $29.2 million and $29.2 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively. Cash used in financing activities remained constant primarily due to a $1.0 million increase in share repurchases for tax withholdings related to certain equity-based awards, a $0.4 million increase due to distribution to one our noncontrolling interests and a $0.2 million increase in scheduled debt repayments offset by a $1.2 million decrease due to the repurchase of 104,325 shares of common stock during the twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016 and a decrease in debt issuance and modification costs of $0.3 million related to amendments to the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities.

Capital Spending

The nature of our business requires us to invest capital to maintain our existing properties and invest in our information technology systems. For the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, we spent approximately $36.1 million (net of insurance proceeds of $2.9 million) and $24.8 million (net of insurance proceeds of $0.5 million), respectively, in capitalized costs to maintain our existing properties and invest in our information technology systems. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, this spending included $21.1 million, net of insurance proceeds, to maintain our existing properties and $1.6 million to maintain our existing information technology systems. Additionally, we invested $13.4 million on information technology projects related to the centralization of administrative processes.

In addition to maintaining our properties, we also spend discretionary capital to expand and improve existing properties, including major reinventions, and expand our business through acquisitions. Capital expansion funding totaled approximately $28.8 million and $28.4 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, including acquisitions of $15.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively.

Subsequent to June 13, 2017, on June 20, 2017, we purchased Medina Golf and Country Club, a private country club in Medina, Minnesota, for a purchase price of $4.7 million. We anticipate spending approximately $2.5 million in reinvention project capital at this property.

50

The Merger Agreement limits our ability to, among other things, invest capital for other than maintenance purposes after July 9, 2017 and our ability to invest capital on reinventions which did not commence prior to July 9, 2017. As a result, for the remainder of fiscal year 2017 we anticipate spending approximately $20.9 million in maintenance capital, net of insurance proceeds, to maintain our existing facilities, $1.4 million to maintain our existing information technology systems, $1.9 million on information technology projects related to the centralization and transformation of administrative processes and $35.3 million on reinvention projects which commenced prior to July 9, 2017, including the reinvention project capital at Medina Golf and Country Club.

Debt

Secured Credit Facilities—In 2010, Operations entered into the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities. The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities was subsequently amended in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. On May 19, 2017, Operations entered into an eleventh amendment to the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities to decrease the interest rate on the term loan facility to a variable rate calculated as the higher of (i) 3.75% or (ii) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75%. As of July 12, 2017, the Secured Credit Facilities are comprised of (i) a $651.0 million term loan facility and (ii) a revolving credit facility with capacity of $175.0 million with $124.2 million available for borrowing after deducting $30.8 million of standby letters of credit and $20.0 million of borrowings outstanding. In addition, the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities includes capacity which provides, subject to lender participation, for additional borrowings in revolving or term loan commitments of $125.0 million, and additional borrowings thereafter so long as the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio does not exceed 3.50:1.00.

As of July 12, 2017, the interest rate on the term loan facility is a variable rate calculated as the higher of (i) 3.75% or (ii) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75% and the maturity date of the term loan facility is December 15, 2022.

As of July 12, 2017, the revolving credit commitments mature on January 25, 2021 and borrowings thereunder bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 3.0% per annum. We are required to pay a commitment fee on all undrawn amounts under the revolving credit facility and a fee on all outstanding letters of credit, payable quarterly in arrears.

As long as commitments are outstanding under the revolving credit facility, we are subject to the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Total Leverage Ratio. The Senior Secured Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Operations’ Consolidated Senior Secured Debt (exclusive of the 2015 Senior Notes) to Consolidated EBITDA (disclosed as Adjusted EBITDA and defined in Note 12 of our consolidated condensed financial statements included elsewhere herein) and is calculated on a pro forma basis, giving effect to current period acquisitions as though they had been consummated on the first day of the period presented. The Total Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Operations’ Consolidated Total Debt (including the 2015 Senior Notes) to Consolidated EBITDA and is also calculated on a pro forma basis. The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities requires us to maintain the Total Leverage Ratio of no greater than 5.75:1.00 and the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio no greater than 4.50:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter.

We may be required to prepay the outstanding term loan facility by a percentage of excess cash flows, as defined by the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities, each fiscal year end after our annual consolidated financial statements are delivered, which percentage may decrease or be eliminated depending on the results of the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio test at the end of each fiscal year. No such prepayment was required with respect to fiscal year 2016. We may voluntarily prepay outstanding loans under the Secured Credit Facilities in whole or in part upon prior notice without premium or penalty, other than certain fees incurred in connection with a repricing transaction.

51

As of June 13, 2017, Operations was in compliance with all covenant restrictions under the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities. The following tables present the Total Leverage Ratio and the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio on a rolling four quarter basis through June 13, 2017:

2015 Senior Notes—On December 15, 2015, Operations issued $350.0 million of 2015 Senior Notes, maturing December 15, 2023. Interest on the 2015 Senior Notes accrues at the rate of 8.25% per annum and is payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15.

The 2015 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a full and unconditional basis by each Guarantor (other than Operations’ Parent) that guarantees our obligations under the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities. As of June 13, 2017, Operations and the Guarantors accounted for approximately 93% of Holdings’ combined total assets, excluding intercompany items, and accounted for approximately 90% of outstanding total liabilities, including trade payables, all of which are structurally senior to the 2015 Senior Notes. For the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, Operations and the Guarantors accounted for approximately 93% of Holdings’ revenues and approximately 89% of Holdings’ operating income, excluding selling, general and administrative expenses.

Mortgage Loan—On August 9, 2016, we entered into the Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan for $37.0 million with a maturity date of May 31, 2019 with two options to extend through August 9, 2021. As of June 13, 2017, the note has a principal amount of $36.4 million and accrues interest at a variable interest rate calculated as 2.90% plus the greater of (i) one month LIBOR or (ii) 0.25%. The proceeds of the Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan were primarily used to repay outstanding balances on previously existing mortgage loan agreements.

Other Debt—As of June 13, 2017, other debt and capital leases totaled $66.5 million, including $11.8 million of notes payable related to certain Non-Core Development Entities and $51.5 million in capital leases.

The following table summarizes the components of our interest expense for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017:

	Twelve Weeks Ended		Twenty-Four Weeks Ended
	June 13, 2017		June 13, 2017
	(dollars in thousands)

Accretion of discount on member deposits	4,642		9,208
Total interest expense	$	19,234	$	38,784

_______________________

(1) Interest expense related to funded debt includes interest on the facilities and borrowings under the Secured Credit Facilities, the 2015 Senior Notes and the Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan.

(2) Includes interest expense on capital leases and other indebtedness, offset by capitalized interest.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

We are not aware of any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 13, 2017. There have been no material changes outside the normal course of business to our contractual obligations or commercial commitments from those previously disclosed in our 2016 Annual Report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK 

Interest Rate Risk

Our indebtedness consists of both fixed and variable rate debt facilities. As of July 12, 2017, the interest rate on the term loan facility under the Secured Credit Facilities was a variable rate calculated as the higher of (i) a 3.75% “Floor” or (ii) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75%. Therefore, the term loan facility is effectively subject to a 3.75% Floor when LIBOR is below 1.0%. Additionally, as of July 12, 2017, the Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan accrues interest at a variable rate calculated as 2.90% plus the greater of (i) one month LIBOR or (ii) 0.25%.

As of July 12, 2017, the one month and three month LIBOR was 1.22% and 1.30%, respectively. A hypothetical 0.50% increase in LIBOR would result in a $3.4 million increase in annual interest expense.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Our interests in foreign economies include three golf properties in Mexico and two managed business clubs in China. We translate foreign currency denominated amounts into U.S. dollars and we report our consolidated condensed financial results of operations in U.S. dollars. Because the value of the U.S. dollar fluctuates relative to other currencies, revenues that we generate or expenses that we incur in other currencies could increase or decrease our revenues or expenses as reported in U.S. dollars. Total foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses comprised less than 1.0% of our consolidated revenues and expenses, respectively, for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017.

Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies could also increase or decrease foreign currency transaction gains and losses which are reflected as a component of club operating costs. Total foreign currency transaction gains and losses for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 totaled less than $0.1 million.

54

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, which are required in accordance with Rule 15d-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). This section includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of senior management personnel, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures at the reasonable assurance level (as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 13, 2017. We perform this evaluation on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our annual and quarterly reports filed under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, and subject to the limitations described below, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 13, 2017.

Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 13, 2017 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of a control system reflects resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because there are inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of error or fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.

55

PART II

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in litigation that we believe is of the type common to companies engaged in our line of business, including commercial disputes, disputes with members regarding their membership agreements, employment issues and claims relating to personal injury and property damage. We are not involved in any pending legal proceedings that we believe would likely have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to our risk factors that we believe are material to our business, results of operations and financial condition, from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2016 Annual Report filed with the SEC on February 27, 2017, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, except for the following.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties associated with the proposed merger.

On July 9, 2017, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Constellation Club Parent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Constellation Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Holdings. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of certain funds (the “Apollo Funds”) managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”). The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger. The proposed Merger is also subject to various risks and uncertainties, including the following:

• uncertainties as to the timing of the Merger;

• the risk that the Merger may not be completed in a timely manner or at all;

• uncertainties as to whether our stockholders will approve the Merger;

• the possibility that competing offers or acquisition proposals will be made;

• the possibility that any or all of the various conditions to the consummation of the Merger may not be satisfied or waived, including the failure to receive any required regulatory approvals from any applicable governmental entities (or any conditions, limitations or restrictions placed on such approvals);

• the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement, including in circumstances which would require us to pay a termination fee or other expenses;

• risks regarding the failure to obtain the necessary financing to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement;

• the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on our ability to retain and hire key personnel, our ability to maintain relationships with our members, suppliers and others with whom we do business, or our operating results and business generally;

• risks related to diverting management’s attention from our ongoing business operations; and

• the risk that stockholder litigation in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability.

If the Merger is not consummated for any reason, our stockholders will not receive the consideration that Parent has agreed to pay upon the consummation of the Merger, and the price of our common stock may decline to the extent that its current market price reflects an assumption that the Merger will be consummated. Such decline may be significant.

In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, we are prohibited from, among other things, issuing equity securities to raise capital, declaring and paying dividends on our common stock (other than the one-time quarterly dividend of $0.13 per share declared on July 9, 2017) and repurchasing shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program. Further, the Merger Agreement limits our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, make capital

56

expenditures and acquire and divest clubs. These limitations and restrictions may prevent us from taking actions or pursuing otherwise attractive business opportunities that we consider advantageous.

We may not be able to attract and retain club members, which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain members at our clubs and maintain or increase usage of our facilities. Changes in consumer tastes and preferences, particularly those affecting the popularity of golf and private dining, and other social and demographic trends could adversely affect our business. Historically, we have experienced varying levels of membership enrollment and attrition rates and, in certain areas, decreased levels of usage of our facilities. Significant periods where attrition rates exceed enrollment rates or where facilities usage is below historical levels would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. For fiscal year 2016and the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, 47.6% and 48.9%, respectively, of our total revenues came from recurring membership dues. For fiscal year 2016, 24.3% of our business, sports and alumni club memberships (approximately 14,600 memberships) and 17.3% of our golf and country club memberships (approximately 20,800 memberships) were resigned. After the addition of new memberships, our business, sports and alumni clubs experienced a 2.6% net loss in memberships during fiscal year 2016, excluding managed clubs. Our golf and country clubs experienced a 3.9% net gain in memberships during fiscal year 2016, excluding managed clubs. If we cannot attract new members or retain our existing members, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

We could be required to make material cash outlays in future periods if the number of initiation deposit refund requests we receive materially increases or if we are required to surrender unclaimed initiation deposits to state authorities under applicable escheatment laws, either of which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

At a majority of our private clubs, members are expected to pay an initiation fee or an initiation deposit upon their acceptance as a member to the club. Initiation fees, which are more typical for our business clubs and mid-market golf and country clubs, are generally nonrefundable. In contrast to initiation fees, initiation deposits, which are typical in our more prestigious golf and country clubs, are paid by members upon joining one of our clubs and are fully refundable after a fixed number of years, typically 30 years, and upon any other applicable contractual provisions being satisfied. Historically, only a small percentage of initiation deposits eligible to be refunded have been requested by members. As of June 13, 2017, the amount of initiation deposits that are eligible to be refunded currently and within the next 12 months is $178.1 million on a gross basis. As of June 13, 2017, the discounted value of initiation deposits that may be refunded in future years (not including the next 12 months) is $205.8 million. For more information on our initiation deposit amounts, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

We may be subject to various states’ escheatment laws with respect to initiation deposits that have not been refunded to members. All states and the District of Columbia have escheatment laws and generally require companies to remit to the state cash in an amount equal to unclaimed and abandoned property after a specified period of dormancy, which is typically 3 to 5 years. We currently do not remit to states any amounts relating to initiation deposits that are eligible to be refunded to members. The analysis of the potential application of escheatment laws to our initiation deposits is complex, involving an analysis of legal, contractual and factual issues. While it has been our position that initiation deposits are not required to be escheated, we may be forced to remit such amounts if we are challenged and fail to prevail in our position.

To our knowledge, 26 states have hired third-party auditors to conduct unclaimed and abandoned property audits of our operations. Certain categories of property, such as uncashed payroll checks or uncashed vendor payments, are escheatable in the ordinary course of business and we have entered into closing agreements with the majority of the states regarding the escheatment of cash amounts for such categories and have remitted these amounts to the respective states; however, the audits have not been terminated. We have been in ongoing communication with several states represented by such auditors, who are demanding additional and detailed information and records related to initiation deposits. We expect to vigorously defend ourselves in any legal proceedings under applicable state laws seeking to have us remit initiation deposits eligible to be refunded to any of our members that have not been previously refunded to such members during the applicable state’s dormancy period. However, our position as to why initiation deposits are not required to be escheated may not be correct and there is a risk that one or more state courts could determine that respective state unclaimed property laws do apply. As a result, we may be required to pay all or a portion of the unclaimed amounts of initiation deposits to one or more of the states. In certain of the states, we could also be subject to penalties and be required to pay interest on the amounts owed to the states. Moreover, we may be required to escheat some or all of the initiation deposits that become eligible for refund in the future that remain unclaimed.

57

Any refund of initiation deposits to our members or payments to states as a result of escheatment laws or settlements would need to be funded by our available cash, or we may be required to take actions to make cash available. These funding requirements could strain our cash on hand or otherwise require us to borrow funds, force us to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets or operations or seek additional capital. These actions could have a material and adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition. We cannot assure you that we would be able to take any of these actions, that these actions would be successful and permit us to meet such obligations or that these actions would be permitted under the terms of our existing or future debt agreements.

We have significant operations concentrated in certain geographic areas, and any disruption in the operations of our clubs in any of these areas could harm our results of operations.

As of June 13, 2017, we operated multiple clubs in several metropolitan areas, including 30 in the greater Atlanta, Georgia region, 17 near Houston, Texas, 17 in and around Dallas, Texas and 9 in the greater Los Angeles, California region. As a result, any prolonged disruption in the operations of our clubs in any of these markets, whether due to technical difficulties, power failures or destruction or damage to the clubs as a result of a natural disaster, fire or any other reason, could harm our results of operations or may result in club closures. In addition, some of the metropolitan areas where we operate clubs could be disproportionately affected by regional economic conditions, such as declining home prices and rising unemployment. Concentration in these markets increases our exposure to adverse developments related to competition, as well as economic and demographic changes in these areas.

Our large workforce subjects us to risks associated with increases in the cost of labor as a result of increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover rates and required wage increases and health benefit coverage, lawsuits or labor union activity.

Labor is our primary property-level operating expense. As of June 13, 2017, we employed approximately 21,800 hourly-wage and salaried employees at our clubs and corporate offices. For fiscal year 2016, labor-related expense accounted for 47.1% of our total club operating costs and expenses. We may face labor shortages or increased labor costs because of increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover rates, or increases in the federal or state minimum wage or other employee benefit costs. For example, if the federal minimum wage were increased significantly, we would have to assess the financial impact on our operations as we have a large population of hourly employees. If labor-related expenses increase, our operating expense could increase and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

We are subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act and various federal and state laws governing such matters as minimum wage requirements, overtime compensation and other working conditions, citizenship requirements, discrimination and family and medical leave. In recent years, a number of companies have been subject to lawsuits, including class action lawsuits, alleging violations of federal and state law regarding workplace and employment matters, overtime wage policies, discrimination and similar matters. A number of these lawsuits have resulted in the payment of substantial damages by the defendants. Similar lawsuits may be threatened or instituted against us from time to time, and we may incur substantial damages and expenses resulting from lawsuits of this type, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

From time to time, we have also experienced attempts to unionize certain of our non-union employees. While these efforts have achieved only limited success to date, we cannot provide any assurance that we will not experience additional and more successful union activity in the future. In addition, future legislation could amend the National Labor Relations Act to make it easier for unions to organize and obtain collectively bargained benefits, which could increase our operating expenses and negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On February 24, 2016, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a repurchase of up to $50 million of our common stock with an expiration date of December 31, 2017. The repurchase program may be executed from time to time, subject to general business and market conditions and other investment opportunities, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, including through plans designed under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, we did not purchase any shares under the share repurchase plan.

Dividend Policy and Limitations

In December 2013, our Board of Directors adopted a policy to pay, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and the availability of funds, a regular quarterly cash dividend at an indicated annual rate of $0.48 per share of common stock, subject to quarterly declaration. On December 3, 2014, our Board of Directors approved an 8% increase in the quarterly dividend, resulting in an indicated annual dividend of $0.52 per share of common stock. Prior to our entry into the Merger Agreement, the payment of such quarterly dividends was at the discretion of our Board of Directors pursuant to our dividend policy.

Our ability to pay dividends has depended in part on our receipt of cash distributions from our operating subsidiaries, which may be restricted from distributing us cash as a result of the laws of their jurisdiction of organization, agreements of our subsidiaries or covenants under any existing and future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. In particular, the ability of our subsidiaries to distribute cash to us is limited by covenants in the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities and the indenture governing the 2015 Senior Notes.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, as of July 9, 2017 we are prohibited from, among other things, declaring and paying dividends on our common stock (other than the one-time quarterly dividend of $0.13 per share declared on July 9, 2017).

WHEREAS, in the event the Amendment is approved by the Required Lenders but not all of the Term B Lenders, the Borrower desires to replace those Term B Lenders that are Non-Consenting Lenders to this Amendment by causing such Non-Consenting Lenders to assign their Existing Term B Loans to Citibank, N.A. as an Eligible Assignee (the “New Term B Lender”) in accordance with Sections 3.07 and 10.07 of the Credit Agreement and the New Term B Lender agrees to purchase such Term B Loans in the principal amount set forth on the signature page of such New Term B Lender (such amount, the “New Term B Commitment Amount”);

1.5Clause (a)(iv) of Section 2.05 is hereby amended and restated in full as follows:

“At the time of the effectiveness of any Repricing Transaction that is consummated prior to November 19, 2017 that (A) makes any prepayment of Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction, or (B) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each applicable Term Lender, a fee in an amount equal to, (x) in the case of clause (A), a prepayment premium of 1% of the amount of the Term Loans being prepaid and (y) in the case of clause (B), a payment equal to 1% of the aggregate amount of the applicable Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation—The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of ClubCorp, its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries and certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The consolidated condensed financial statements presented herein reflect our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or “GAAP”. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated.

Investments in certain unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for by the equity method. See Note 4.

We have entered into agreements with third-party owners of clubs to act as a managing agent and provide certain services to the third party club owner in exchange for a management fee. The operations of managed clubs are not consolidated. We recognize the contractual management fees as revenue when earned. Additionally, we recognize reimbursements for certain costs of operations at certain managed clubs as revenue.

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from the accompanying financial statements. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 27, 2016.

We believe that the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations and other factors such as timing of acquisitions and dispositions of facilities.

We have two reportable segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs. These segments are managed separately and discrete financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), a key financial measurement of segment profit and loss, is reviewed regularly by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance and allocate resources. See Note 12.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from such estimated amounts.

Revenue Recognition—Revenues from club operations, food and beverage and merchandise sales are recognized at the time of sale or when the service is provided and are reported net of sales taxes. Revenues from membership dues are generally billed monthly and recognized in the period earned.

At a majority of our private clubs, members are expected to pay an initiation fee or deposit upon their acceptance as a member to the club. In general, initiation fees are not refundable, whereas initiation deposits are not refundable until a fixed number of years (generally 30) after the date of acceptance of a member. We recognize revenue related to membership initiation fees and deposits over the expected life of an active membership.

For membership initiation deposits, the difference between the amount paid by the member and the present value of the refund obligation is deferred and recognized within club operations revenue over the expected life of an active membership. The present value of the refund obligation is recorded as a membership initiation deposit liability and accretes over the non-refundable term using the effective interest method with an interest rate defined as our incremental borrowing rate adjusted to reflect a 30-year time frame. The accretion is included in interest expense.

The majority of membership initiation fees received are not refundable and are deferred and recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations over the expected life of an active membership.

The expected lives of active memberships are calculated annually using historical attrition rates. Periods in which attrition rates differ significantly from enrollment rates could have a material effect on our consolidated condensed financial statements by decreasing or increasing the expected lives of active memberships, which in turn would affect the length of time over which we recognize initiation fee and deposit revenues. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, our estimated expected lives ranged from one to 20 years; the weighted-average expected life of a golf and country club membership was approximately seven years and the expected life of a business, sports and alumni club membership was approximately three years.

Membership initiation payments recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations were $3.2 million and $3.2 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, and $6.5 million and $6.6 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-9 (“ASU 2014-9”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-9 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements. In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-9 to fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We plan to adopt the ASU, as amended, in Q1 2018. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-8 (“ASU 2016-8”) which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9. In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10 (“ASU 2016-10”) which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9. In May 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12 (“ASU 2016-12”) which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9.

The FASB allows two adoption methods under ASU 2014-9. Under one method, a company will apply the rules to contracts in all reporting periods presented, subject to certain allowable exceptions. Under the other method, a company will apply the rules to all contracts existing as of the first day of Q1 2018, recognizing in beginning retained earnings an adjustment for the cumulative effect of the change and providing additional disclosures comparing results to previous rules (“modified retrospective method”). We anticipate adopting the standard under the modified retrospective method.

Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, we believe the key changes in the standard that impact our revenue recognition relate to contracts for new members which include an initiation payment. The standard requires that we allocate the amount paid by the new member between various components of the contract which may constitute a performance obligation. These components include initiation payments to join one of our clubs, dues which provide for continued access to our clubs as well as charges for food and beverage, merchandise sales and other club services. We may discount any of these components as a promotion for new members. The revenues for these components may be recognized over varying time periods. Membership initiation payments recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated statements of operations were $6.5 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, or approximately 1% of our consolidated total revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. We are still in the process of evaluating the quantitative impact of these changes; however, we cannot currently estimate the impact of change upon adoption, as the amount is dependent on the structure of our membership pricing structure and our employee incentive plans, which we frequently evaluate and adjust to respond to current market conditions. Additionally, we believe the requirement to defer incremental contract acquisition costs and recognize them as an expense over the contract period may apply to certain of our employee commission plans and to discounts or incentives provided to existing members who sponsor a new member. We expect to recognize a deferred charge on our balance sheet, which we will recognize into expense over the expected life of an active membership. We cannot currently estimate the impact of the change in accounting treatment for contract acquisition costs for the same reasons described above.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-2 (“ASU 2016-2”), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-2 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP; however, ASU 2016-2 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases guidance. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that the effect of leases in the statement of operations and the statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. ASU 2016-2 is effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-2 in Q1 2019.

Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, a key change upon adoption will be the balance sheet recognition of all leased assets and liabilities. Currently we lease many of our business clubs and a few of our golf and country clubs through operating leases which are not recognized on the balance sheet. We anticipate a right to use asset and a related lease liability will be recognized for these leases and potentially other contracts which qualify as leases.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected credit losses during the period. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate the adoption will have a material impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-1 (“ASU 2017-1”), Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Under ASC Topic 805, there are three elements of a business: inputs, processes, and outputs, which must be evaluated to determine if an asset or group of assets is a business. ASU 2017-1 provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. ASU 2017-1 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are still in the process of evaluating the quantitative impact of ASU 2017-1.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-4 (“ASU 2017-4”), Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-4 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 required an entity to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in a business combination. Instead, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test and recognize an impairment charge by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. ASU 2017-4 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Our goodwill impairment tests have not proceeded to Step 2 in any fiscal year presented and the estimated fair values of our golf and country clubs and business, sports and alumni clubs reporting units both exceeded their carrying values by a significant amount as of the date the analysis was last performed during fiscal year 2016.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

Consolidated VIEs include three managed golf course properties and certain realty interests which we define as “Non-Core Development Entities”. We have determined we are the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as we have the obligation to absorb the majority of losses from and direct activities of these operations. One of these managed golf course property VIEs is financed through a loan payable of $0.5 million collateralized by assets of the entity totaling $4.2 million as of June 13, 2017. The other managed golf course property VIEs are financed through advances from us. Outstanding advances as of June 13, 2017 total $5.4 million compared to recorded assets of $7.4 million. The VIE related to the Non-Core Development Entities is financed through notes which are payable through cash proceeds related to the sale of certain real estate held by the Non-Core Development Entities. Recourse of creditors to these VIEs is limited to the assets of the VIE entities, which total $12.5 million and $11.4 million at June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively.

The following summarizes the carrying amount and classification of the VIEs’ assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, net of intercompany amounts:

	June 13, 2017			December 27, 2016

FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE

FAIR VALUE

GAAP establishes a three-tiered fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used in fair value calculations. The three levels of inputs are defined as follows:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible by the Company;

Level 2—inputs that are observable in the marketplace other than those inputs classified as Level 1; and

Level 3—inputs that are unobservable in the marketplace and significant to the valuation.

We maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. If a financial instrument uses inputs that fall in different levels of the hierarchy, the instrument is categorized based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value calculation. We recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy on the date of the change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Debt—We estimate the fair value of our debt obligations, excluding capital lease obligations and loan origination fees, as follows, as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016:

	June 13, 2017				December 27, 2016
	Recorded Value		Fair Value		Recorded Value		Fair Value
Level 2 (1)	$	996,528	$	1,035,694	$	996,199	$	1,026,323
Level 3	51,495		42,547		50,274		41,467
Total	$	1,048,023	$	1,078,241	$	1,046,473	$	1,067,790

______________________

(1) The recorded value for Level 2 debt obligations is presented net of the $4.5 million and $4.8 million discount as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, respectively, on the Secured Credit Facilities, as defined in Note 9.

The 2015 Senior Notes and borrowings under the Secured Credit Facilities, as both are defined in Note 9, are considered Level 2. We use quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities to value debt obligations classified as Level 2. All other debt obligations are considered Level 3. We use adjusted quoted prices for similar liabilities to value debt obligations classified as Level 3. Key inputs include: (1) the determination that certain other debt obligations are similar, (2) nonperformance risk, and (3) interest rates. Changes or fluctuations in these assumptions and valuations will result in different estimates of value. The use of different techniques to determine the fair value of these debt obligations could result in different estimates of fair value at the reporting date.

The carrying value of financial instruments including cash, cash equivalents, receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable and other short-term and long-term assets and liabilities approximate their fair values as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

Our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include equity method investments, property and equipment, mineral rights, goodwill, trade names, liquor licenses, management contracts and other assets and liabilities recorded during business combinations. Assets and liabilities from business combinations were recorded on our consolidated condensed balance sheets at fair value at the date of acquisition. The key assumptions used in determining these values are considered Level 3 measurements. See Note 11.

Property and Equipment—We recognized impairment losses of $3.9 million during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, to adjust the carrying amount of certain property and equipment to its fair value of $1.5 million due primarily to changes in the expected holding period of certain fixed assets, including assets at two golf and country clubs which were divested during the twelve weeks ended June 13, 2017. We recognized no impairment losses during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016. The valuation methods used to determine fair value included an evaluation of the sales price of comparable real estate properties, a sales comparison approach, an analysis of discounted future cash flows using a risk-adjusted discount rate, an income approach, and consideration of historical cost adjusted for economic obsolescence, a cost approach. The fair value calculations associated with these valuations were based on the expected sales price of the clubs and are classified as Level 3 measurements.

Management Contracts—We evaluate these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through future cash flows. During the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, we recognized impairment losses of $0.2 million to adjust the carrying value of a management contract to its fair value of zero, due to the termination of the related contract. The valuations are classified as a Level 3 measurement and are based on expected future cash flows.

Investments and Other Assets—We evaluate our other assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through future cash flows. There were no impairments recorded during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017. We recognized impairment losses to investments and other assets of $0.5 million during the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, to adjust the carrying amount of the investment to its fair value of zero.

DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASES

DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASES

Secured Credit Facilities

Secured Credit Facilities—In 2010, Operations entered into the credit agreement governing the secured credit facilities (the “Secured Credit Facilities”). The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities was subsequently amended in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. As of June 13, 2017, the Secured Credit Facilities are comprised of (i) a $651.0 million term loan facility, and (ii) a revolving credit facility with capacity of $175.0 million with $144.2 million available for borrowing, after deducting $30.8 million of standby letters of credit outstanding. In addition, the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities includes capacity which provides, subject to lender participation, for additional borrowings in revolving or term loan commitments of $125.0 million, and additional borrowings thereafter so long as a senior secured leverage ratio (the “Senior Secured Leverage Ratio”) does not exceed 3.50:1.00.

As of June 13, 2017, the interest rate on the term loan facility is a variable rate calculated as the higher of (i) 3.75% or (ii) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75% and the maturity date of the term loan facility is December 15, 2022.

As of June 13, 2017, the revolving credit commitments mature on January 25, 2021 and borrowings thereunder bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 3.0% per annum. We are required to pay a commitment fee on all undrawn amounts under the revolving credit facility and a fee on all outstanding letters of credit, payable quarterly in arrears.

As long as commitments are outstanding under the revolving credit facility, we are subject to limitations on the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and a total leverage ratio (the “Total Leverage Ratio”). The Senior Secured Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Operations’ Consolidated Senior Secured Debt (exclusive of the 2015 Senior Notes (as defined below)) to Consolidated EBITDA (disclosed as Adjusted EBITDA and defined in Note 12) and is calculated on a pro forma basis, giving effect to current period acquisitions as though they had been consummated on the first day of the period presented. The Total Leverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Operations’ Consolidated Total Debt (including the 2015 Senior Notes) to Consolidated EBITDA and is also calculated on a pro forma basis. The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities requires us to maintain a Senior Secured Leverage Ratio no greater than 4.50:1.00 and a Total Leverage Ratio of no greater than 5.75:1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of June 13, 2017, Operations’ Senior Secured Leverage Ratio was 2.89:1.00 and the Total Leverage ratio was 4.28:1.00.

On May 19, 2017, Operations entered into an eleventh amendment to the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities to decrease the interest rate on the term loan facility to a variable rate calculated as the higher of (a) 3.75% or (b) an elected LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75%.

All obligations under the Secured Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Operations’ Parent and each existing and all subsequently acquired or organized direct and indirect restricted subsidiaries of Operations, other than certain excluded subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The Secured Credit Facilities are secured, subject to permitted liens and other exceptions, by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all the assets of Operations, and the Guarantors, including, but not limited to (1) a perfected pledge of all the domestic capital stock owned by Operations and the Guarantors, and (2) perfected security interests in and mortgages on substantially all tangible and intangible personal property and material fee-owned property of Operations and the Guarantors, subject to certain exclusions.

2015 Senior Notes

On December 15, 2015, Operations issued $350.0 million of senior notes (the “2015 Senior Notes”), maturing December 15, 2023. Interest on the 2015 Senior Notes accrues at a fixed rate of 8.25% per annum and is payable semiannually in arrears on June 15 and December 15. The 2015 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a full and unconditional basis by each Guarantor (other than Operations’ Parent) that guarantees our obligations under the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities.

Notes payable related to certain Non-Core Development Entities

In 1994 and 1995, we issued notes payable to finance a VIE related to our Non-Core Development Entities. The notes and accrued interest are payable through the cash proceeds related to the sale of certain real estate held by these Non-Core Development Entities. As of June 13, 2017, the notes have a principal amount of $11.8 million.

Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan

On August 9, 2016, we entered into a secured mortgage loan which was guaranteed by ClubCorp USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Operations, (the “Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan”) for $37.0 million with a maturity date of May 31, 2019. As of June 13, 2017, the note has a principal amount of $36.4 million and accrues interest at a variable rate calculated as 2.90% plus the greater of (i) one month LIBOR or (ii) 0.25%. The proceeds of the Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan were primarily used to repay outstanding balances on previously existing mortgage loan agreements. There is an option to extend the maturity through August 9, 2020 and a second option to extend the maturity through August 9, 2021 upon satisfaction of certain conditions in the loan agreement.

Long-term borrowings and lease commitments as of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, are summarized below:

INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

Holdings files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, numerous state jurisdictions and in three foreign jurisdictions. Income taxes recorded are adjusted to the extent losses or other deductions cannot be utilized in the consolidated federal income tax return. We file state tax returns on a separate company basis or unitary basis as required by law. Additionally, certain subsidiaries of Holdings, owned through lower tier joint ventures, file separate tax returns for federal and state purposes.

Our annual effective income tax rate is determined by the level and composition of pre-tax income and the mix of income subject to varying foreign, state and local taxes. Our tax expense or benefit recognized in our interim financial statements is determined by multiplying the year-to-date income or loss by the annual effective tax rate, which is an estimate of the expected relationship between tax expense or benefit for the full year to the pre-tax income or loss for the full year (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items). Our effective income tax rate for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 was 211.7% and 47.2%, respectively, compared to 41.5% and 36.3% for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, respectively. For the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory federal rate of 35.0% primarily due to state taxes and certain other permanent differences. The relative impact these items have on the effective tax rate varies based on the forecasted amount of pre-tax income or loss for the year.

We are currently under audit by state income tax authorities, but do not have any current assessments related to such audits at this time.

As of June 13, 2017, tax years 2011 - 2016 remain open under statute for U.S. federal and most state tax jurisdictions. In Mexico, the statute of limitations is generally five years from the date of the filing of the tax return for any particular year, including amended returns. Accordingly, in general, tax years 2008 through 2016 remain open under statute; although certain prior years are also open as a result of the tax proceedings described below.

Certain of our Mexican subsidiaries are under audit by the Mexican taxing authorities for the 2008 and 2009 tax years. In 2013, we received two assessments, for approximately $3.0 million each, exclusive of penalties and interest, for two of our Mexican subsidiaries under audit for the 2008 tax year. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest these assessments through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. In March 2017, we received notice of a favorable ruling from the Mexican court presiding over one of the matters such that one of these two assessments was dismissed and is non-appealable by the Mexican taxing authorities. There is no impact to the financial statements from the dismissal as no liability had previously been recorded. We have not recorded a liability related to the remaining 2008 open uncertain tax position as we believe it is more likely than not that we will prevail based on the merits of our position. In 2014, we received an audit assessment for the 2009 tax year for another Mexican subsidiary. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest the assessment through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. We have recorded a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit for $4.6 million, exclusive of penalties and interest, related to this audit. The unrecognized tax benefit has been recorded due to the technical nature of the tax filing position taken by our Mexican subsidiary and uncertainty around the ultimate outcome of this assessment, which we intend to continue to contest.

As of June 13, 2017 and December 27, 2016, we have recorded a total of $8.6 million and $7.0 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties of $3.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively, which are included in other liabilities in the consolidated condensed balance sheets. If we were to prevail on all uncertain tax positions recorded as of June 13, 2017, the net effect would be an income tax benefit of approximately $4.8 million, exclusive of any benefits related to interest and penalties.

Management believes it is unlikely that our unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next 12 months given the current status in particular of the matters currently under examination by the Mexican tax authorities. However, as audit outcomes and the timing of related resolutions are subject to significant uncertainties, we will continue to evaluate the tax issues related to these assessments in future periods. In summary, we believe we are adequately reserved for our uncertain tax positions as of June 13, 2017.

Club Dispositions and Management Agreement Terminations

Clubs may be divested when we determine they will be unable to provide a positive contribution to cash flows from operations in future periods and/or when they are determined to be non-strategic holdings. Gains from divestitures are recognized in the period in which operations cease and losses are recognized when we determine that the carrying value is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, we ceased operating three clubs: The Club at Key Center, a leased business club in Cleveland, Ohio, Piedmont Club, a leased business and sports club in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Houston City Club, a leased business and sports club in Houston, Texas. Additionally, the management agreement with Cateechee Golf Club, a public golf facility located in Hartwell, Georgia was terminated. No material gain or loss on divestiture was recorded. These divestitures did not qualify as discontinued operations. On June 13, 2017, we sold Heron Bay Golf Club, a private country club in Locust Grove, Georgia, and Georgia National Golf Club, a private country club in McDonough, Georgia. During the twelve weeks ended June 13, 2017, we recognized an impairment loss of $3.3 million related to the fixed assets at these two clubs, which is included in impairment of assets in the consolidated condensed statements of operations, and a gain of $0.1 million on the sale, which is included in loss on disposals of assets in the consolidated condensed statements of operations.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

We currently have two reportable segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs. These segments are managed separately and discrete financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA, our financial measure of segment profit and loss, is reviewed regularly by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance and allocate resources. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer. We also use Adjusted EBITDA, on a consolidated basis, to assess our ability to service our debt, incur additional debt and meet our capital expenditure requirements. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate as it provides additional information to investors about our performance and investors and lenders have historically used EBITDA-related measures.

EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income taxes, interest and investment income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus or minus impairments, gain or loss on disposition and acquisition of assets, income or loss from divested clubs, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash and other adjustments, equity-based compensation expense and a deferred revenue adjustment. The deferred revenue adjustment to revenues and Adjusted EBITDA within each segment represents estimated deferred revenue using current membership life estimates related to initiation payments that would have been recognized in the applicable period but for the application of purchase accounting. Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definition of Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities and the indenture governing the 2015 Senior Notes contain certain covenants which are based upon specified financial ratios in reference to Adjusted EBITDA, after giving effect to the pro forma impact of acquisitions. Adjusted EBITDA as reported is identical to the computation of Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement governing our Secured Credit Facilities, except that for purposes of certain covenants in the credit agreement, a pro forma adjustment is made to Consolidated EBITDA in order to give effect to current period acquisitions as though they had been consummated on the first day of the four quarter period presented. The pro forma impact gives effect to all acquisitions in the four quarters ended June 13, 2017 as though they had been consummated on the first day of the third quarter of fiscal year 2016.

Golf and country club operations consist of private country clubs, golf clubs and public golf facilities. Private country clubs provide at least one 18-hole golf course and various other recreational amenities that are open to members and their guests. Golf clubs provide both private and public golf play and usually offer fewer recreational amenities than private country clubs. Public golf facilities are open to the public and generally provide the same amenities as golf clubs.

Business, sports and alumni club operations consist of business clubs, business/sports clubs, sports clubs and alumni clubs. Business clubs provide a setting for dining, business or social entertainment. Sports clubs provide a variety of recreational facilities and business/sports clubs provide a combination of the amenities available at business clubs and sports clubs. Alumni clubs provide the same amenities as business clubs while targeting alumni and staff of universities.

We also disclose corporate expenses and other operations, which consists of other business activities including ancillary revenues related to alliance arrangements, a portion of the revenue associated with upgrade offerings, reimbursements for certain costs of operations at managed clubs, corporate overhead expenses and shared services. Other operations also includes corporate assets such as cash, goodwill, intangible assets, and loan origination fees. While corporate expenses and other operations is not a segment, disclosing corporate expenses and other operations facilitates the reconciliation from segment results to consolidated results.

The table below shows summarized financial information by segment for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016:

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

GAAP requires that earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations treat unvested share-based payment awards that have non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents as a separate class of securities (participating securities) and that basic EPS be calculated using the two-class method. We have granted RSAs (as defined below) that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends. Such awards are considered participating securities. The two-class method of computing EPS is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. We have also granted RSAs that contain forfeitable rights to dividends. These awards are not considered participating securities and are excluded from the basic weighted-average shares outstanding calculation.

Basic EPS is computed utilizing the two-class method and is calculated on weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented.

Diluted EPS reflects the dilutive effect of equity based awards (potential common shares) that may share in the earnings of ClubCorp when such shares are either issued or vesting restrictions lapse. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the periods presented, utilizing the two-class method for unvested equity-based awards.

Presented below is basic and diluted EPS for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The basis for the numerator for earnings per share is net income (loss) attributable to ClubCorp. The numerator was adjusted by $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 14, 2016, respectively, for dividends and undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities.

Potential common shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS when the effect of their inclusion would reduce our net loss per share and would be anti-dilutive. There were no potential common shares excluded from the calculation for the twelve and twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017. For the twenty-four weeks ended June 14, 2016 there were less than 0.1 million potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block]

EQUITY

Equity-Based Awards—We have granted equity-based awards to employees and non-employee directors in the form of restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), which restrictions will be removed upon satisfaction of time-based vesting requirements, subject to the holder remaining in continued service with us. We have also granted performance restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and “Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSUs”, both of which will convert into shares of our common stock upon satisfaction of (i) time-based vesting requirements and (ii) the applicable performance-based requirements subject to the holder remaining in continued service with us. The number of awards under the PSU and Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU grants represents the target number of such units that may be earned. The PSU awards performance-based requirements are measured based on Holdings’ total shareholder return over the applicable performance periods compared with a peer group. The Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU awards vest upon the achievement by the 2017 Same Store Clubs (as defined in the form of award), on a consolidated basis, of a specified level of Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2018. We measure the cost of services rendered in exchange for equity-based awards based upon the grant date fair market value of the respective equity-based awards. The value is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU awards include performance conditions and expense is accrued when achievement of the performance conditions is considered probable. No expense has been recognized for these awards.

The fair market value of each RSA was estimated using Holdings’ closing share price on the date of grant. The fair market value of each PSU was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis which generates a distribution of possible future stock prices for Holdings and the peer group from the grant date to the end of the applicable performance period. The fair market value of each Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSU was estimated using Holdings’ closing share price on the date of grant.

The following table shows total equity-based compensation expense included in the consolidated condensed statements of operations:

	Twelve Weeks Ended						Twenty-Four Weeks Ended

Equity-based compensation expense, net of tax	$	2,062		$	1,147		$	3,264		$	1,880

As of June 13, 2017, there was approximately $19.4 million of unrecognized expense related to non-vested, equity-based awards granted to employees, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years.

The Amended and Restated ClubCorp Holdings, Inc. 2012 Stock Award Plan (the “Stock Plan”) provides for an aggregate amount of no more than 4.0 million shares of common stock to be available for awards. The Stock Plan provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance-based awards and other equity-based incentive awards. To date, we have granted RSAs, PSUs, Adjusted EBITDA-Based PSUs and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Stock Plan. As of June 13, 2017, approximately 0.8 million shares of common stock were available for future issuance under the Stock Plan. Treasury stock may be used to settle awards under the Stock Plan.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We routinely enter into contractual obligations to procure assets used in the day to day operations of our business and to invest in our information technology systems. As of June 13, 2017, we had capital commitments of $23.1 million.

We currently have sales and use tax audits in progress. We believe the potential for a liability related to the outcome of these audits may exist. However, we believe that the outcome of these audits would not materially affect our consolidated condensed financial statements.

Certain of our Mexican subsidiaries are under audit by the Mexican taxing authorities for the 2008 and 2009 tax years. In 2013, we received two assessments, for approximately $3.0 million each, exclusive of penalties and interest, for two of our Mexican subsidiaries under audit for the 2008 tax year. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest these assessments through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. In March 2017, we received notice of a favorable ruling from the Mexican court presiding over one of the matters such that one of these two assessments was dismissed and is non-appealable by the Mexican taxing authorities. There is no impact to the financial statements from the dismissal as no liability had previously been recorded. We have not recorded a liability related to the remaining 2008 open uncertain tax position as we believe it is more likely than not that we will prevail based on the merits of our position. In 2014, we received an audit assessment for the 2009 tax year for another Mexican subsidiary. We have taken the appropriate procedural steps to contest the assessment through the appropriate Mexican judicial channels. We have recorded a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit for $4.6 million, exclusive of penalties and interest, related to this audit. The unrecognized tax benefit has been recorded due to the technical nature of the tax filing position taken by our Mexican subsidiary and uncertainty around the ultimate outcome of this assessment, which we intend to continue to contest.

We are currently under audit by state income tax authorities, but do not have any current assessments related to such audits at this time.

We are subject to certain pending or threatened litigation and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of such legal proceedings and other claims cannot be predicted with certainty, after review and consultation with legal counsel, we believe that any potential liability from these matters would not materially affect our consolidated condensed financial statements.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On June 20, 2017, we purchased Medina Golf and Country Club, a private country club in Medina, Minnesota, for a purchase price of $4.7 million. Due to the timing of this acquisition, the purchase price allocation was not yet available for disclosure as of the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

On June 20, 2017, we borrowed $20.0 million on the revolving credit facility.

On July 9, 2017, our board of directors declared a cash dividend of $8.5 million, or $0.13 per share of common stock, to all common stockholders of record at the close of business on July 21, 2017. This dividend is expected to be paid on July 28, 2017.

On July 9, 2017, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Constellation Club Parent, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Constellation Merger Sub Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and Holdings. Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of certain funds (the “Apollo Funds”) managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”). The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain shares owned by us, Parent or any of our or Parent’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries) will be converted into the right to receive $17.12 per share in cash, without interest and subject to tax withholding (the “Merger Consideration”).

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of Holdings, including a covenant which obligates us to generally conduct our business in the ordinary course of business in all material respects consistent with past practice from the date of the Merger Agreement through the Effective Time and restricts our ability to take certain actions, including our ability to declare and/or pay dividends (other than the one-time quarterly dividend of $0.13 per share declared on July 9, 2017) and to repurchase shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program.

The Merger Agreement also provides for certain termination rights for both us and Parent. We are obligated to pay Parent a termination fee of $34.2 million in certain circumstances, including (a) if our board of directors changes its recommendation and Parent terminates the Merger Agreement, (b) if, among other things, our stockholders do not approve the Merger Agreement at the stockholder meeting or the Merger is not consummated by the Outside Date (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) and we enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) within 12 months after such termination, or (c) if we terminate the Merger Agreement in accordance with certain procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement in order to enter into a definitive agreement with a third party with respect to a Superior Proposal. The Merger Agreement also provides that Parent will be required to pay us a reverse termination fee of $74.2 million if (x) the conditions to our closing obligation are satisfied, (y) Parent and Merger Sub fail to consummate the closing when required and (z) we terminate the Merger Agreement after notifying Parent that we are irrevocably ready, willing and able to consummate the closing. In addition, we will be required to reimburse all fees and expenses that Parent incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, up to $6.25 million, if the Merger Agreement is terminated by Parent due to a material breach by us of our obligations under the Merger Agreement or if the Merger Agreement is terminated by either Parent or us due to a failure to obtain our stockholders’ approval of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger has been unanimously approved by our board of directors. Closing of the transaction is subject to the approval of our stockholders, regulatory approvals and customary conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017.

The Wells Fargo Mortgage Loan contains language whereby we would be in default upon a change in control. Effective on July 9, 2017, we obtained a waiver to this change in control event of default as it relates to The Merger.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 13, 2017

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation—The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of ClubCorp, its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries and certain variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. The consolidated condensed financial statements presented herein reflect our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or “GAAP”. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated.

Investments in certain unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for by the equity method. See Note 4.

We have entered into agreements with third-party owners of clubs to act as a managing agent and provide certain services to the third party club owner in exchange for a management fee. The operations of managed clubs are not consolidated. We recognize the contractual management fees as revenue when earned. Additionally, we recognize reimbursements for certain costs of operations at certain managed clubs as revenue.

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from the accompanying financial statements. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 27, 2016.

We believe that the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations and other factors such as timing of acquisitions and dispositions of facilities.

We have two reportable segments: (1) golf and country clubs and (2) business, sports and alumni clubs. These segments are managed separately and discrete financial information, including Adjusted EBITDA (“Adjusted EBITDA”), a key financial measurement of segment profit and loss, is reviewed regularly by our chief operating decision maker to evaluate performance and allocate resources. See Note 12.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from such estimated amounts.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition—Revenues from club operations, food and beverage and merchandise sales are recognized at the time of sale or when the service is provided and are reported net of sales taxes. Revenues from membership dues are generally billed monthly and recognized in the period earned.

At a majority of our private clubs, members are expected to pay an initiation fee or deposit upon their acceptance as a member to the club. In general, initiation fees are not refundable, whereas initiation deposits are not refundable until a fixed number of years (generally 30) after the date of acceptance of a member. We recognize revenue related to membership initiation fees and deposits over the expected life of an active membership.

For membership initiation deposits, the difference between the amount paid by the member and the present value of the refund obligation is deferred and recognized within club operations revenue over the expected life of an active membership. The present value of the refund obligation is recorded as a membership initiation deposit liability and accretes over the non-refundable term using the effective interest method with an interest rate defined as our incremental borrowing rate adjusted to reflect a 30-year time frame. The accretion is included in interest expense.

The majority of membership initiation fees received are not refundable and are deferred and recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations over the expected life of an active membership.

The expected lives of active memberships are calculated annually using historical attrition rates. Periods in which attrition rates differ significantly from enrollment rates could have a material effect on our consolidated condensed financial statements by decreasing or increasing the expected lives of active memberships, which in turn would affect the length of time over which we recognize initiation fee and deposit revenues. During the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, our estimated expected lives ranged from one to 20 years; the weighted-average expected life of a golf and country club membership was approximately seven years and the expected life of a business, sports and alumni club membership was approximately three years.

Membership initiation payments recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations were $3.2 million and $3.2 million for the twelve weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively, and $6.5 million and $6.6 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017 and June 14, 2016, respectively.

Revenue Recognition, Services, Refundable Fees for Services

Revenue Recognition—Revenues from club operations, food and beverage and merchandise sales are recognized at the time of sale or when the service is provided and are reported net of sales taxes. Revenues from membership dues are generally billed monthly and recognized in the period earned.

At a majority of our private clubs, members are expected to pay an initiation fee or deposit upon their acceptance as a member to the club. In general, initiation fees are not refundable, whereas initiation deposits are not refundable until a fixed number of years (generally 30) after the date of acceptance of a member. We recognize revenue related to membership initiation fees and deposits over the expected life of an active membership.

For membership initiation deposits, the difference between the amount paid by the member and the present value of the refund obligation is deferred and recognized within club operations revenue over the expected life of an active membership. The present value of the refund obligation is recorded as a membership initiation deposit liability and accretes over the non-refundable term using the effective interest method with an interest rate defined as our incremental borrowing rate adjusted to reflect a 30-year time frame. The accretion is included in interest expense.

The majority of membership initiation fees received are not refundable and are deferred and recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated condensed statements of operations over the expected life of an active membership.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-9 (“ASU 2014-9”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-9 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer, as well as enhanced disclosure requirements. In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-9 to fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We plan to adopt the ASU, as amended, in Q1 2018. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-8 (“ASU 2016-8”) which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9. In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10 (“ASU 2016-10”) which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9. In May 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12 (“ASU 2016-12”) which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-9.

The FASB allows two adoption methods under ASU 2014-9. Under one method, a company will apply the rules to contracts in all reporting periods presented, subject to certain allowable exceptions. Under the other method, a company will apply the rules to all contracts existing as of the first day of Q1 2018, recognizing in beginning retained earnings an adjustment for the cumulative effect of the change and providing additional disclosures comparing results to previous rules (“modified retrospective method”). We anticipate adopting the standard under the modified retrospective method.

Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, we believe the key changes in the standard that impact our revenue recognition relate to contracts for new members which include an initiation payment. The standard requires that we allocate the amount paid by the new member between various components of the contract which may constitute a performance obligation. These components include initiation payments to join one of our clubs, dues which provide for continued access to our clubs as well as charges for food and beverage, merchandise sales and other club services. We may discount any of these components as a promotion for new members. The revenues for these components may be recognized over varying time periods. Membership initiation payments recognized within club operations revenue on the consolidated statements of operations were $6.5 million for the twenty-four weeks endedJune 13, 2017, or approximately 1% of our consolidated total revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. We are still in the process of evaluating the quantitative impact of these changes; however, we cannot currently estimate the impact of change upon adoption, as the amount is dependent on the structure of our membership pricing structure and our employee incentive plans, which we frequently evaluate and adjust to respond to current market conditions. Additionally, we believe the requirement to defer incremental contract acquisition costs and recognize them as an expense over the contract period may apply to certain of our employee commission plans and to discounts or incentives provided to existing members who sponsor a new member. We expect to recognize a deferred charge on our balance sheet, which we will recognize into expense over the expected life of an active membership. We cannot currently estimate the impact of the change in accounting treatment for contract acquisition costs for the same reasons described above.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-2 (“ASU 2016-2”), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-2 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP; however, ASU 2016-2 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases guidance. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that the effect of leases in the statement of operations and the statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. ASU 2016-2 is effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. We plan to adopt ASU 2016-2 in Q1 2019.

Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, a key change upon adoption will be the balance sheet recognition of all leased assets and liabilities. Currently we lease many of our business clubs and a few of our golf and country clubs through operating leases which are not recognized on the balance sheet. We anticipate a right to use asset and a related lease liability will be recognized for these leases and potentially other contracts which qualify as leases.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected credit losses during the period. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate the adoption will have a material impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-1 (“ASU 2017-1”), Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Under ASC Topic 805, there are three elements of a business: inputs, processes, and outputs, which must be evaluated to determine if an asset or group of assets is a business. ASU 2017-1 provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. ASU 2017-1 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are still in the process of evaluating the quantitative impact of ASU 2017-1.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-4 (“ASU 2017-4”), Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-4 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 required an entity to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in a business combination. Instead, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test and recognize an impairment charge by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. ASU 2017-4 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Our goodwill impairment tests have not proceeded to Step 2 in any fiscal year presented and the estimated fair values of our golf and country clubs and business, sports and alumni clubs reporting units both exceeded their carrying values by a significant amount as of the date the analysis was last performed during fiscal year 2016.
