In 2012, the Group recognized impairment charges of €87 million related to (i) 45 stores (34 Sweetbay, 8 Food Lion and 3
Bottom Dollar Food) that were closed early 2013 and 9 underperforming stores, all in the United States, for a total amount of 54
million, (ii) the closing of 6 stores and underperformance of 57 stores in Southeastern Europe (€28 million), and (iii) 1 store
closing and the impairment of 6 stores in Belgium (€5 million).
A store portfolio review resulted in the decision to close 146 underperforming stores in the first quarter of 2012. Consequently,
the Group recorded in 2011 €120 million impairment charges relating to 126 stores in the U.S. (113 Food Lion, 7 Bloom and 6
Bottom Dollar Food stores) and one distribution center, while the underperformance of 20 Maxi stores (in Serbia, Bulgaria and
Bosnia and Herzegovina) was already reflected in the fair values of the related assets in the opening balance sheet (see Note 4).
In addition, Delhaize Group recognized impairment reversals of €5 million in the United States, which was offset by impairment
charges in various other parts of the Group.
