FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

6 Months Ended

Dec. 29, 2021

Fair value is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or the exit price, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value measurements are categorized in three levels based on the types of significant inputs used, as follows:


Level 1			Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2			Observable inputs available at measurement date other than quote prices included in Level 1
Level 3			Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data

Non-Financial Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

We review the carrying amounts of long-lived property and equipment including finance lease assets, operating lease assets, reacquired franchise rights and transferable liquor licenses annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the fair value may not substantially exceed the carrying amount. We record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. All impairment charges were included in Other (gains) and charges in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Unaudited) for the periods presented.

Intangibles, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) includes both indefinite-lived intangible assets such as transferable liquor licenses and definite-lived intangible assets such as reacquired franchise rights and trademarks. Intangibles, net included accumulated amortization associated with definite-lived intangible assets at December 29, 2021 and June 30, 2021, of $10.8 million and $9.6 million, respectively.

Definite Lived Assets Impairment

Definite lived assets include property and equipment, including finance lease assets, operating lease assets and reacquired franchise rights. During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 29, 2021, no indicators of impairment were identified.

Indefinite Lived Assets Impairment

The fair values of transferable liquor licenses are based on prices in the open market for licenses in the same or similar jurisdictions, and are categorized as Level 2. During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 29, 2021 and December 23, 2020, no indicators of impairment were identified.

Goodwill

We review the carrying amounts of goodwill annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We may elect to perform a qualitative assessment for our reporting units to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value. If a qualitative assessment is not performed, or if the result of the qualitative assessment indicates a potential impairment, then the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to its carrying value. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the implied fair value of the goodwill.

Related to the qualitative assessment, changes in circumstances existing at the measurement date or at other times in the future, such as declines in our market capitalization, as well as in the market capitalization of other companies in the restaurant industry, declines in sales at our restaurants, and significant adverse changes in the operating environment for the restaurant industry could result in an impairment loss of all or a portion of our goodwill. We performed our annual goodwill impairment analysis in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 using a qualitative approach based on these factors and no indicators of impairment were identified. During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 29, 2021, management concluded that no triggering event occurred.

Our ability to operate dining and banquet rooms and generate off-premise sales at our restaurants is critical to avoiding a future triggering event as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues. Management’s judgments about the impact of the pandemic could change as additional developments occur. We will continue to monitor and evaluate our results in future periods to determine if a more detailed assessment is necessary.

Chili’s Restaurant Acquisitions

In the first two quarters of fiscal 2022, we completed the acquisition of 60 Chili’s restaurants from two former franchisees. The preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for these restaurants utilized Level 3 inputs. The fair values of intangible assets acquired were primarily based on significant inputs not observable in an active market, including estimates of replacement costs, future cash flows, and discount rates. Refer to Note 2 - Chili’s Restaurant Acquisitions for further details.

Other Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts because of the short maturity of these items.

Long-Term Debt

The carrying amount of debt outstanding related to our revolving credit facility approximates fair value as the interest rate on this instrument approximates current market rates (Level 2). The fair values of the 3.875% and 5.000% notes are based on quoted market prices and are considered Level 2 fair value measurements.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the 3.875% notes and 5.000% notes, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts, are as follows:


	December 29, 2021				June 30, 2021
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
3.875% notes	$	299.5	$	309.0	$	299.3	$	309.0
5.000% notes	347.9		375.0		347.5		369.3
