Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and April 1, 2018, the Company recorded impairment charges on long-lived assets as a result of closing Company-operated restaurants and classifying such surplus properties as held for sale.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded impairment charges as a result of the deterioration in operating performance of certain Company-operated restaurants. Additionally, during the three months ended April 1, 2018, the Company recorded impairment charges as a result of the Company’s decision to lease and/or sublease properties to franchisees in connection with the sale or anticipated sale of Company-operated restaurants, including any subsequent lease modifications.

The following is a summary of impairment losses recorded, which represent the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the affected assets and are included in “Impairment of long-lived assets.”
