Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued
administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Repairs and maintenance expense
was $2.6 million, $2.1 million and $1.8 million for the fiscal years 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Repairs and
maintenance expense does not include any costs for store conversions.
Legal Proceedings and Claims
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims arising out of the conduct of its business. In
accordance with the FASB’s authoritative guidance for contingent losses management records a reserve for
estimated losses when the loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a range of possible loss
exists and no anticipated loss within the range is more likely than any other anticipated loss, the Company records
the accrual at the low end of the range. As the Company believes that it has provided adequate reserves, it
anticipates that the ultimate outcome of any matter currently pending against the Company will not materially affect
the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.
Reserves are reviewed at least quarterly and are adjusted to reflect the impact and status of settlements, ruling,
advice of counsel and other information pertinent to a particular matter. Significant differences could exist between
the actual cost required to investigate, litigate and/or settle a claim or the ultimate outcome of a suit and
management’s estimate.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per common share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share amounts are calculated using the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding plus the additional dilution for all potentially dilutive stock options
utilizing the treasury stock method.
The following table shows the amounts used in computing earnings per share and the effect on net income and
the weighted average number of shares of potential dilutive common stock (stock options):

Per common share:

Diluted income per common share ........................ $ 1.76 $ 1.55 $ 1.21
Equity awards to purchase 0.8 million, 0.6 million, and 0.3 million shares of common stock for the fiscal years
2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were outstanding, but were not included in the computation of weighted average
diluted common share amounts as the effect of doing so would have been anti-dilutive.
