The acquisitions on June 30, 2014 and October 8, 2014 included the purchase of one and twelve fee-owned properties, respectively. Ten of these fee-owned properties were sold in sale-leaseback transactions during the fourth quarter of 2014 for net proceeds of $12,961 and one property was sold in a sale-leaseback transaction at the beginning of the first quarter of 2015 for net proceeds of $1,123.

In connection with the acquisition on November 4, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with BKC to remodel 46 of the restaurants acquired over a five-year period beginning in 2014.

The consolidated statements of operations include restaurant sales related to the 2014 and 2015 acquisitions for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2015 of $39.4 million and $110.8 million, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014 of $7.8 million and $8.6 million, respectively. It is impracticable to disclose net earnings for the post-acquisition periods as net earnings of these restaurants were not tracked on a collective basis due to the integration of administrative functions, including field supervision.
The pro forma impact for the 2014 and 2015 acquisitions on the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014 and September 27, 2015 is included below. The pro forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred had the 2014 and 2015 acquisitions been consummated at the beginning of the periods presented, nor are they necessarily indicative of any future consolidated operating results.
