HASBRO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Millions of Dollars and Shares Except Per Share Data)
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Hasbro, Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries ("Hasbro" or the "Company") as of July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022, and the results of its operations and cash flows and shareholders' equity for the periods then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The quarters ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022 were each 13-week periods. The six-month periods ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022 were 27-week and 26-week periods, respectively.
The results of operations for the quarter ended July 2, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year 2023, nor were those of the comparable 2022 period representative of those actually experienced for the full year 2022.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company's significant accounting policies are summarized in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2022 ("2022 Form 10-K").
Impairment of Film and TV Reporting Unit
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred following a downward revision of the Company's financial forecast for its Film and TV business, driven by challenging industry conditions that include the ongoing strike by the Writers Guild of America. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative impairment test and determined that the Film and TV reporting unit within the Company's Entertainment segment, was impaired. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded pre-tax non-cash impairment charges of $296.2 million as the carrying value of the Film and TV reporting unit exceeded its expected fair value, as determined using a discounted cash flow model which is primarily based on management’s future revenue and cost estimates. These impairment charges consisted of a $231.2 million goodwill impairment charge associated with goodwill assigned to the Company's Film and TV reporting unit, recorded within Impairment of Goodwill and a $65.0 million intangible asset impairment charge related to the Company's definite-lived intangible eOne Trademark, recorded in Selling, Distribution and Administration costs, within the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2023.
D&D Beyond Acquisition
On May 19, 2022, the Company acquired D&D Beyond, a strategic, complementary acquisition of the premier digital content platform for DUNGEONS & DRAGONS. The all-cash transaction in the purchase amount of $146.3 million was funded with cash on hand. The final allocation of assets acquired included $81.4 million to intangible assets, $64.7 million to goodwill, with the remainder allocated to property, plant, and equipment, all of which are included in the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of June 26, 2022.
Blueprint 2.0 and Operational Excellence
In October 2022, following a several months long strategic review of our business led by our CEO, the Company announced a new strategic plan guided by our new Blueprint 2.0, a consumer-centric framework for bringing compelling and expansive brand experiences to audiences around the world. During the review, with the assistance of a third party consultant, the Company identified opportunities to focus and scale its business, enhance operational excellence, including through specialized organizational programs and supply chain transformation, to drive growth and profit and enhance shareholder value. The Company is increasing strategic investment in its most valuable and profitable franchises across toys, games, entertainment and licensing, and exiting certain non-core aspects of the business.
Brand Portfolio Realignment
Effective for the first quarter 2023, we realigned our brand portfolios to correspond with the evolution of our Blueprint 2.0 strategy. We are focusing on fewer, bigger, more profitable brands that showcase our leadership in preschool toys, action figures and accessories, games, arts & crafts, and outdoor action brands.
Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Millions of Dollars and Shares Except Per Share Data)
Our new product categories beginning in the first quarter of 2023 are as follows:
Franchise Brands - A refreshed group of our most financially significant brands which we consider to have the greatest long-term potential including DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, Hasbro Gaming, MAGIC: THE GATHERING, NERF, PEPPA PIG, PLAY-DOH, and TRANSFORMERS.
Partner Brands - The Partner Brands category includes those brands we license from other parties such as Disney's STAR WARS and MARVEL brands as well as other partners, for which we develop toy and game products, with a focus on those key Partner Brands that give us the largest growth potential and where we can lead and innovate in the category.
Portfolio Brands - Our Portfolio Brands category includes those brands we own or control which we feel have upside in revenue and profitability that have not yet grown to the significance of a franchise brand.
Non-Hasbro Branded Film & TV - The Non-Hasbro Branded Film & TV category includes non-Hasbro-branded film, TV and other entertainment related revenues. All Hasbro-branded content is included in the portfolios noted above.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

In the ordinary course of business, the Company’s Consumer Products, Wizards of the Coast and Digital Gaming and Entertainment segments enter into contracts to license certain of the Company’s intellectual property, providing licensees right-to-use or access to such intellectual property for use in the production and sale of consumer products and digital game development, and for use within content for distribution over streaming platforms and for television and film. The Company also licenses owned television and film content for distribution to third parties in formats that include broadcast, digital streaming and theatrical. Through these arrangements, the Company may receive advanced royalty payments from licensees, either in advance of a licensees’ subsequent sales to customers or, prior to the completion of the Company’s performance obligation. In addition, the Company’s Wizards of the Coast and Digital Gaming segment may receive advanced payments from end users of its digital games at the time of the initial purchase or through in-application purchases. These digital gaming revenues are recognized over a period of time, determined based on player usage patterns or the estimated playing life of the user or when additional downloadable content is made available. The Company defers revenues on all licensee and digital gaming advanced payments until the respective performance obligations are satisfied. The Company records the aggregate deferred revenues as contract liabilities, with the current portion recorded within Accrued Liabilities and the long-term portion recorded as Other Non-current Liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company records contract assets, primarily related to (1) minimum guarantees being recognized in advance of contractual invoicing, which are recognized ratably over the terms of the respective license periods, and (2) film and television distribution revenues recorded for content delivered, where payment will occur over the license term. The current portion of contract assets is recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, respectively, and the long-term portion is recorded within Other Long-Term Assets.

Unsatisfied performance obligations
Unsatisfied performance obligations relate primarily to in-production television content to be delivered in the future under existing agreements with partnering content providers such as broadcasters, distributors, television networks and subscription video on demand services. As of July 2, 2023, unrecognized revenue attributable to unsatisfied performance obligations expected to be recognized in the future was $158.6 million. Of this amount, we expect to recognize $135.3 million in the remainder of 2023, $19.0 million in 2024, $4.2 million in 2025 and $0.1 million in 2026. These amounts include only fixed consideration.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company’s balance for accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheets as of July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022 are primarily from contracts with customers. The Company had no material expense for credit losses for the quarters ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022.
Disaggregation of revenues
The Company disaggregates its revenues from contracts with customers by reportable segment: Consumer Products, Wizards of the Coast and Digital Gaming, and Entertainment. The Company further disaggregates revenues within its Consumer Products segment by major geographic region: North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific; within its Wizards of the Coast and Digital Gaming segment by category: Tabletop Gaming and Digital and Licensed Gaming; and within its Entertainment segment by category: Film & TV, Family Brands, and Other. Finally, the Company disaggregates its revenues by brand portfolio into four brand categories: Franchise Brands, Partner Brands, Portfolio Brands, and Non-Hasbro Branded Film & TV. We believe these collectively depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. See note 13 for further information.

For the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2023, options and restricted stock units totaling 4.3 million and 4.2 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because to include them would have been anti-dilutive. For the quarter and six months ended June 26, 2022, options and restricted stock units totaling 3.0 million and 3.8 million, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because to include them would have been anti-dilutive. Of the fiscal 2023 amount, 1.2 million and 1.6 million shares, respectively, would have been included in the calculation of diluted shares had the Company not had a net loss for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2023. Assuming that these awards and options were included, under the treasury stock method, they would have resulted in an additional 0.2 million and 0.1 million shares, respectively, being included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2023.

Gains (Losses) on Derivative Instruments
At July 2, 2023, the Company had remaining net deferred losses on foreign currency forward contracts, net of tax, of $5.0 million in accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) ("AOCE"). These instruments hedge payments related to inventory purchased in the second quarter of 2023 or forecasted to be purchased during the remainder of 2023 and throughout 2024, intercompany expenses expected to be paid or received during 2023, television and movie production costs paid in 2023 or expected to be paid in 2024, and cash receipts for sales made at the end of the first quarter of 2023 or forecasted to be made in the remainder of 2023 and throughout 2024. These amounts will be reclassified into the consolidated statements of operations upon the sale of the related inventory, the recognition of the related production costs or the recognition of the related sales or intercompany expenses to be paid or received.
In addition to foreign currency forward contracts, the Company entered into hedging contracts on future interest payments related to the 3.15% Notes that were repaid in full in the aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million in 2021 (See note 7), and the 5.10% Notes due 2044. At the date of debt issuance, these contracts were terminated and the fair value on the date of settlement was deferred in AOCE and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the related notes using the effective interest rate method. At July 2, 2023, deferred losses, net of tax of $14.6 million related to these instruments remained in AOCE. For the quarters ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022, previously deferred losses of $0.2 million related to these instruments were reclassified from AOCE to net earnings. For the six months ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022, previously deferred losses of $0.3 million and $0.4 million were reclassified from AOCE to net earnings, respectively.
Of the net deferred losses included in AOCE at July 2, 2023, the Company expects net losses of approximately $4.8 million to be reclassified to the consolidated statements of operations within the next 12 months. However, the amount ultimately realized in earnings is dependent on the fair value of the hedging instruments on the settlement dates.
See note 11 for additional discussion on reclassifications from AOCE to earnings.

In November 2019, in conjunction with the Company's acquisition of eOne, the Company issued an aggregate of $2.4 billion of senior unsecured debt securities (the "Notes") consisting of the following tranches: $300.0 million of notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes") that bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.60%, $500.0 million of notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes") that bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.00%, $675.0 million of notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") that bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.55% and $900.0 million of notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes") that bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.90%. Net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes, after deduction of $20.0 million of underwriting discount and fees, totaled $2.4 billion. These costs are being amortized over the life of the Notes outstanding, which range from five years to ten years from the date of issuance.
The Notes bear interest at the stated rates but may be subject to upward adjustment if the credit rating of the Company is reduced by Moody's or Standard & Poors. The adjustment can be from 0.25% to 2.00% based on the extent of the ratings decrease. The Company may redeem the Notes at its option at the greater of the principal amount of the Notes or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments discounted using the effective interest rate on applicable U.S. Treasury bills at the time of repurchase, plus (1) 25 basis points (in the case of the 2024 Notes); (2) 30 basis points (in the case of the 2026 Notes); and (3) 35 basis points (in the case of the 2029 Notes). In addition, on and after October 19, 2024 for the 2024 Notes, September 19, 2026 for the 2026 Notes and August 19, 2029 for the 2029 Notes, such series of Notes will be redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the Company's option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest.
In September 2019, the Company entered into a $1.0 billion Term Loan Agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America N.A. (“Bank of America”), as administrative agent, and certain financial institutions as lenders, pursuant to which such lenders committed to provide, contingent upon the completion of the eOne Acquisition and certain other customary conditions to funding, (1) a three-year senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $400.0 million (the “Three-Year Tranche”) and (2) a five-year senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $600.0 million (the “Five-Year Tranche” and together with the Three-Year Tranche, the “Term Loan Facilities”). The full amount of the Term Loan Facilities was drawn down on December 30, 2019, the closing date of the eOne Acquisition. As of September 25, 2022, the Company has fully repaid the Three-Year Tranche $400.0 million principal term loan, and of the Five-Year Tranche $600.0 million principal balance, the Company has repaid a total of $335.0 million in the following increments: $22.5 million in 2020; $180.0 million in 2021; $87.5 million in 2022; and $45.0 million of principal amortization payments in the first six months of 2023.
Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Millions of Dollars and Shares Except Per Share Data)
Loans under the remaining Five-Year Tranche bear interest at the Company’s option, at either the adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), plus an applicable margin, or the Base Rate, plus a per annum applicable rate that fluctuates between 100.0 basis points and 187.5 basis points, in the case of loans priced at the SOFR, and between 0.0 basis points and 87.5 basis points, in the case of loans priced at the Base Rate, in each case, based upon the non-credit enhanced, senior unsecured long-term debt ratings of the Company by Fitch Ratings Inc., Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. and S&P Global Rankings, subject to certain provisions taking into account potential differences in ratings issued by the relevant rating agencies or a lack of ratings issued by such rating agencies. Loans under the Five-Year Tranche require principal amortization payments that are payable in equal quarterly installments of 5.0% per annum of the original principal amount thereof for each of the first two years after funding, increasing to 10.0% per annum of the original principal amount thereof for each subsequent year. The Term Loan Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants typical of this type of facility, including: (i) restrictions on the Company’s and its domestic subsidiaries’ ability to allow liens on their assets, (ii) restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness, (iii) restrictions on the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to engage in certain mergers, (iv) the requirement that the Company maintain a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of no less than 3.00:1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter and (v) the requirement that the Company maintain a Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of no more than, depending on the gross proceeds of equity securities issued after the effective date of the acquisition of eOne, 5.65:1.00 or 5.40:1.00 for each of the first, second and third fiscal quarters ended after the funding of the Term Loan Facilities, with periodic step downs to 3.50:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2023 and thereafter. As of July 2, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Term Loan Agreement.
The Company may redeem its 5.10% notes due in 2044 (the "2044 Notes") at its option, at the greater of the principal amount of the notes or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments, discounted using the effective interest rate on applicable U.S. Treasury bills at the time of repurchase.
Current portion of long-term debt at July 2, 2023 of $69.4 million, as shown on the consolidated balance sheet, represents the current portion of required quarterly principal amortization payments for the Five-Year Tranche of the Term Loan Facilities and production financing facilities. All of the Company’s other long-term borrowings have contractual maturities that occur subsequent to 2023 with the exception of certain of the Company's production financing facilities and annual principal payments related to the Term Loan Facilities.
The fair values of the Company's long-term debt are considered Level 3 fair values (see note 10 for further discussion of the fair value hierarchy) and are measured using the discounted future cash flows method. In addition to the debt terms, the valuation methodology includes an assumption of a discount rate that approximates the current yield on a similar debt security. This assumption is considered an unobservable input in that it reflects the Company's own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company believes that this is the best information available for use in the fair value measurement.

Production Financing
In addition to the Company's financial instruments, the Company uses production financing facilities to fund its film and television productions which are arranged on an individual production basis by either special purpose production subsidiaries, each secured by future revenues of such production subsidiaries, which are non-recourse to the Company's assets, or through a senior revolving credit facility dedicated to production financing obtained in November 2021. The Company's senior revolving film and television production credit facility (the “RPCF”) with MUFG Union Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and lender and certain other financial institutions, as lenders thereto (the “Revolving Production Financing Agreement”) provides the Company with commitments having a maximum aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million. The Revolving Production Financing Agreement also provides the Company with the option to request a commitment increase up to an aggregate additional amount of $150.0 million subject to agreement of the lenders. The Revolving Production Financing Agreement extends through November 22, 2024. The Company uses the RPCF to fund certain of the Company’s original film and TV production costs. Borrowings under the RPCF are non-recourse to the Company's assets. Going forward, the Company expects to utilize the RPCF for the majority of its production financing needs.
Production financing facilities typically have maturities of less than two years, while the titles are in production, and are repaid once delivered and all credits, broadcaster pre-sales and international sales have been received. The production financing facilities as of July 2, 2023, June 26, 2022 and December 25, 2022 are as follows:

Interest is charged at bank prime rate plus a margin based on the risk of the respective production. The weighted average interest rate on all production financing as of July 2, 2023 was 6.8%.
The Company has Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar production financing loans with various banks. The carrying amounts are denominated in the following currencies:

Investments in productions and investments in acquired content rights are predominantly monetized on a title-by-title basis and are recorded within other assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets, to the extent they are considered recoverable against future revenues. These amounts are being amortized to program cost amortization using a model that reflects the consumption of the asset as it is released through various channels including broadcast licenses, theatrical release and home entertainment. Amounts capitalized are reviewed periodically on an individual title basis and any portion of the unamortized amount that appears not to be recoverable from future net revenues is expensed as part of program cost amortization during the period the loss becomes evident.

*During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded film production cost impairment charges of $25.0 million associated with Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, within Program Cost Amortization in the Consolidated Statement of Operations, within the Entertainment Segment. The film impairment charges reflected the excess of the unamortized costs of the impaired film over its estimated fair value using estimated discounted future cash flows.
(9) Income Taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and various state and international jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is regularly audited by U.S. federal, state and local, and international tax authorities in various tax jurisdictions.
Our effective tax rate ("ETR") from continuing operations was (3.1)% for the six months ended July 2, 2023 and 21.8% for the six months ended June 26, 2022.
The following items caused the year-to-date ETR to be significantly different from the prior year ETR:
- during the six months ended July 2, 2023, the Company recorded an impairment of goodwill related to the Film and TV reporting unit of $231.2 million with no tax benefit. The Company also recorded a net discrete tax benefit of $8.9 million, exclusive of the goodwill impairment, primarily associated with a tax benefit on the impairment of trade names in the Entertainment segment, offset by stock-based compensation and net activity related to uncertain tax

positions, primarily interest accruals, combined with the phasing of the Company's income earned throughout 2023, and;
- during the six months ended June 26, 2022, the Company recorded a net discrete tax benefit of $3.2 million, primarily associated with the release of certain valuation allowances during the first quarter.
The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before 2012. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. state or local and non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities in its major jurisdictions for years before 2016. The Company is currently under income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service and in several U.S. state and local and non-U.S. jurisdictions.
(10) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels: Level 1 fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access; Level 2 fair values are those based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 fair values are based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. There have been transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy.
Accounting standards permit entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and establish presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities.

At July 2, 2023, June 26, 2022 and December 25, 2022, the Company had the following assets and liabilities measured at fair value in its consolidated balance sheets (excluding assets for which the fair value is measured using net asset value per share):

Available-for-sale securities include equity securities of one company quoted on an active public market.
The Company's derivatives consist of foreign currency forward and option contracts. The Company uses current forward rates of the respective foreign currencies to measure the fair value of these contracts. The Company’s option agreement relates to an equity method investment in Discovery Family Channel ("Discovery"). The option agreement is included in other liabilities at July 2, 2023, June 26, 2022 and December 25, 2022, and is valued using an option pricing model based on the fair value of the related investment. Inputs used in the option pricing model include the volatility and fair value of the underlying company which are considered unobservable inputs as they reflect the Company's own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company believes that this is the best information available for use in the fair value measurement. There were no changes in these valuation techniques during the quarter ended July 2, 2023.

(11) Derivative Financial Instruments
Hasbro uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign exchange option contracts to mitigate the impact of currency rate fluctuations on firmly committed and projected future foreign currency transactions. These over-the-counter contracts, which hedge future currency requirements related to purchases of inventory, product sales, television and film production cost and production financing loans (see note 7) as well as other cross-border transactions not denominated in the functional currency of the business unit, are primarily denominated in United States and Hong Kong dollars, and Euros. All contracts are entered into with a number of counterparties, all of which are major financial institutions. The Company believes that a default by a single counterparty would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. Hasbro does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Cash Flow Hedges
All of the Company's designated foreign currency forward contracts are considered to be cash flow hedges. These instruments hedge a portion of the Company's currency requirements associated with anticipated inventory purchases, product sales, certain production financing loans and other cross-border transactions, primarily for the remainder of 2023, and to a lesser extent, into 2024.
At July 2, 2023, June 26, 2022 and December 25, 2022, the notional amounts and fair values of the Company's foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedging instruments were as follows:

Undesignated Hedges
The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the impact of changes in the fair value of intercompany loans due to foreign currency changes. The Company does not use hedge accounting for these contracts as changes in the fair values of these contracts are substantially offset by changes in the fair value of the intercompany loans. Additionally, to manage transactional exposure to fair value movements on certain monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, the Company has implemented a balance sheet hedging program. The Company does not use hedge accounting for these contracts as changes in the fair values of these contracts are offset by changes in the fair value of the balance sheet items. As of July 2, 2023, June 26, 2022 and December 25, 2022 the total notional amounts of the Company's undesignated derivative instruments were $810.4 million, $464.7 million and $765.6 million, respectively.

For additional information related to the Company's derivative financial instruments (see notes 5 and 10).
(12) Leases
The Company occupies offices and uses certain equipment under various operating lease arrangements. The Company has no material finance leases. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of 1 to 15 years, some of which include options to extend lease terms or options to terminate current lease terms at certain times, subject to notice requirements set out in the lease agreement. Payments under certain of the lease agreements may be subject to adjustment based on a consumer price index or other inflationary indices. The lease liability for such lease agreements as of the adoption date, was based on fixed payments as of the adoption date. Any adjustments to these payments based on the related indices will be recorded to expense as incurred. Leases with an expected term of 12 months or less are not capitalized. Lease expense under such leases is recorded straight line over the life of the lease. The Company capitalizes non-lease components for equipment leases, but expenses non-lease components as incurred for real estate leases.
The rent expense under such arrangements and similar arrangements that do not qualify as leases under ASU 2016-02, net of sublease income amounted to $24.8 million and $48.3 million for the quarter and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $20.9 million and $43.2 million for the quarter and six months ended June 26, 2022, respectively, and was not material to the Company's financial statements. Expenses related to short-term leases (expected terms less than 12 months) or variable lease payments was not material in the quarters or six months ended July 2, 2023 or June 26, 2022.
