Operating expenses for 2009 were $295.5 million, or 52.9 percent of net sales, as compared to $258.4 million, or 47.4 percent for 2008. The increase in operating expenses was primarily caused by increased occupancy, payroll, and depreciation expenses incurred as a result of operating an additional 21 net stores at the end of 2009 compared to the end of 2008, as well as due to the full year impact of increased operating expenses from the additional 78 net stores opened in 2008. Operating expenses were also higher in 2009 due to $3.3 million in non-cash retail store impairment charges recorded in 2009 compared to $0.6 million in 2008. Pre-opening expenses for retail stores were $2.4 million in 2009 versus $10.3 million in 2008.
