(1) For the fiscal years ended September 27, 2009, September 26, 2010, September 25, 2011, and September 30, 2012, September 29, 2013 and the 39 weeks ended June 29, 2014, interest expensed and capitalized includes non-cash interest of $8,793, $8,456, $7,576, $5,467, $3,335 and $2,475.
(A) Due to insufficient earnings or losses, the ratio coverage was less than 1:1 for each period presented in the table above. We would have needed to generate additional earnings of $167,186 for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2009, $60,521 for the fiscal year ended September 26, 2010, $55,640 for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2011, $49,340 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, $35,253 for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2014 and $35,750 for the 39 weeks ended June 29, 2014 in order to cover the fixed charges in those periods.
