(2) Same-store sales are calculated based upon stores that were open at least 13 full fiscal months and
remain open at the end of the reporting period. We include stores that have been remodeled,
expanded or relocated in our same-store sales calculation. When applicable, we exclude the sales
in the non-comparable week of a 53-week year from the same-store sales calculation.
(3) Net sales per square foot was calculated based on total sales for the preceding 12 months as of the
ending date of the reporting period divided by the average selling square footage during the
period, including the end of the fiscal year, the beginning of the fiscal year, and the end of each of
our three interim fiscal quarters.
(4) Debt issuance costs are reflected as a deduction from the corresponding debt liability for all
periods presented.
