SEARS HOLDINGS CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)
111
Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with accounting standards governing the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, we
performed an impairment test of certain of our long-lived assets (principally the value of buildings and other fixed
assets associated with our stores) due to events and changes in circumstances during 2014, 2013 and 2012 that
indicated an impairment might have occurred. The impairment review was triggered by a decline in operating
performance at certain locations, as well as by establishing a valuation allowance against certain deferred income tax
assets. As a result of this impairment testing, the Company recorded impairment charges of $34 million, $220
million and $35 million during 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The impairment charges recorded during 2014
included a $10 million charge at Kmart, a $9 million charge at Sears Domestic and a $15 million charge at Sears
Canada. The impairment charges recorded during 2013 included a $67 million charge at Kmart, a $140 million
charge at Sears Domestic, and a $13 million charge at Sears Canada. The impairment charges recorded during 2012
included a $10 million charge at Kmart and a $25 million charge at Sears Domestic.
NOTE 14—LEASES
We lease certain stores, office facilities, warehouses, computers and transportation equipment.
Operating and capital lease obligations are based upon contractual minimum rents and, for certain stores,
amounts in excess of these minimum rents are payable based upon specified percentages of sales. Contingent rent is
accrued over the lease term, provided that the achievement of the specified sales level that triggers the contingent
rental is probable. Certain leases include renewal or purchase options.
Rental expense for operating leases was as follows:
