The Unaudited Adjusted Results should not be construed as an alternative to the reported results determined in accordance with GAAP. Our definition of adjusted results may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. While it is not possible to predict future results, our management believes that the adjusted non-GAAP information is useful for the assessment of our ongoing operations. The Unaudited Adjusted Results should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes contained in our Form 10-K for fiscal 2011. The 2009 Unaudited Adjusted Results reflect lower selling and administrative expenses as a result of the adjustment for legal settlement agreement expense and lower operating profit as a result of the adjustment for gain on sale of real estate, both described and reconciled below ($ in thousands): Gain on Sale of Real Estate In fiscal 2009, we recognized $12,964 gain on sale of real estate ($8,163 net of tax) related to the sale of a company-owned and operated store in California which resulted in an increase of our operating profit. Legal Settlement In fiscal 2009, we recorded $4,000 expense ($2,420 net of tax) related to a legal settlement agreement which resulted in an increase of selling and administrative expenses.
