Fiscal 2013 Europe Restructuring
In the third quarter of fiscal 2013 (11-month), we also initiated a series of actions to restructure our Best Buy Europe operations
in our International segment intended to improve operating performance. All restructuring charges related to this program are
reported within gain (loss) from discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings as a result of the sale of
our 50% ownership interest in Best Buy Europe. Refer to Note 4, Discontinued Operations. We incurred $95 million of
restructuring charges in fiscal 2014, consisting primarily of property and equipment impairments, and employee termination
benefits. In fiscal 2013 (11-month), we incurred $36 million of charges related to employee termination benefits, property and
equipment impairments, and facility closure and other costs. Given the sale of Best Buy Europe, we do not expect to incur
additional restructuring charges related to this program.
