NOTE 4. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
We assess the recoverability of indefinite-lived assets and goodwill in the fourth quarter of each year and upon the
occurrence of certain events. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the second quarter of
fiscal year 2009, we concluded that it was appropriate to test our long-lived assets for recoverability in light of the significant declines
in the domestic and global financial markets during the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2009. Utilizing our then-current
operating forecasts to estimate the fair values of our Neiman Marcus stores, Bergdorf Goodman stores and Direct Marketing
operation, we determined certain of our property and equipment, tradenames and goodwill to be impaired and recorded impairment
charges in the second quarter of fiscal year 2009 aggregating $560.1 million.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, we updated our short-term and long-term operating forecasts in connection with our
annual planning process in light of our updated expectations of future business conditions and trends. Utilizing these updated
operating forecasts to estimate the fair values of our reporting units, we determined further impairment with respect to certain of our
property and equipment, tradenames and goodwill and recorded additional impairment charges in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009
aggregating $143.1 million.
