Impairments and disposal of assets, net$12.4 $(10.6)$(2.0)
Restaurant impairments and disposal losses for fiscal 2024 were related to the decision to close nine locations, sale of properties and the write-off of acquired Ruth’s Chris assets. Restaurant impairments for fiscal 2023 were primarily related to (i) one underperforming restaurant whose projected cash flows were not sufficient to cover its respective carrying values and (ii) four restaurant closures. Restaurant impairments for fiscal 2022 were primarily related to one underperforming restaurant whose projected cash flows were not sufficient to cover its respective carrying values and two underperforming restaurants that were permanently closed during 2022. Disposal gains for fiscal 2023 and 2022 are primarily related to sale of properties, sale-leasebacks, disposal of closed locations, and the sale of liquor licenses.
Other impacts for fiscal 2024 were related to right-of-use asset adjustments on early lease terminations, the write-off of capitalized software costs, and liquor license impairment. Other impacts for fiscal 2023 were primarily related to cancelled projects. Other impacts for fiscal 2022 were primarily related to the termination of lease liabilities in excess of the related right-of-use-assets.
Impairment charges were measured based on the amount by which the carrying amount of these assets exceeded their fair value. Fair value is generally determined based on appraisals or sales prices of comparable assets and estimates of discounted future cash flows (see Note 9). These amounts are included in impairments and disposal of assets, net as a component of earnings from continuing operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of earnings.
