Considering, among other things, recent significant divestitures and an increasing amount of rental income in proportion to gross rent expense, TDS revised its approach in the fourth quarter of 2014 in calculating the above ratios to use gross rent expense, rather than net rent expense, for estimating the interest portion of rent expense. Prior periods have been revised to conform to this presentation. |
