Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2017 and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016. The Company’s results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period, or for the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which was filed with the SEC on March 7, 2017 and all our other periodic filings, including Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC after the end of our 2016 fiscal year, and throughout the date of this report.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued Operations
The Company historically operated in two reportable operating segments. The criteria the Company used to identify operating segments were primarily the nature of the products we sell or services we provided and the consolidated operating results that were regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker to assess performance and make operating decisions. We previously identified two reportable operating segments, the core auto parts business ("Base USAP"), and an online automotive repair information source of which we were a majority stockholder ("AutoMD"). On March 6, 2017, AutoMD redeemed its stock from the minority stockholders and subsequently dissolved. The AutoMD operating segment has been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See "Note 9 - Discontinued Operations" for further discussion. The Company continues to operate AutoMD.com as a media business and includes its results of operations under continued operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No.
2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASU 2016-09”). The objective of this update is to simplify accounting related to stock compensation. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 for fiscal 2017. The Company will no longer utilize an estimated forfeiture rate, and will utilize the actual forfeiture date. The result was a $249 increase in accumulated stock compensation, with a corresponding decrease in our retained earnings.
