6. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

For the three and six months ended August 4, 2018, an assessment of impairment indicators was performed which caused the Company to review the recoverable amount of the property and equipment for certain cash generating units (“CGUs”) with an indication of impairment. CGUs reviewed included stores performing below the Company’s expectations.

 

As a result, for the three and six months ended August 4, 2018, an impairment loss of $2,560 [July 29, 2017 — $3,179] related to store leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, and computer hardware was recorded in the Canada and U.S. segments for $2,371 and $189, respectively [July 29, 2017 — nil and $3,179, respectively]. These losses were determined by comparing the carrying amount of the CGU’s net assets with their respective recoverable amounts based on value in use. Value in use of nil [July 29, 2017 — nil] was determined based on management’s best estimate of expected future cash flows from use over the remaining lease terms, considering historical experience as well as current economic conditions, and was then discounted using a pre-tax discount rate of 11.9% [July 29, 2017 — 13.4%]. A reversal of impairment occurs when previously impaired CGUs see improved financial results. For the three and six months ended August 4, 2018, no impairment losses were reversed [July 29, 2017 — $866 reversed in the U.S. segment, with value in use of $848]. Impairment losses are reversed only to the extent that the carrying amounts of the CGU’s net assets do not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
