French Tax Settlement
The French authorities had considered that the existence of IP Suisse, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Interparfums SA, does not, in and of itself, constitute a permanent establishment and therefore Interparfums, SA should pay French taxes on all or part of the profits of that entity. In June 2021, a global settlement agreement was reached with the French Tax Authority whereby Interparfums SA paid in December 2021, €2.5 million (approximately $2.9 million) effectively lowering the Lanvin brand royalty rate charged by IP Suisse for the periods from 2017 through 2020. Interparfums SA also agreed to apply the lower rate in 2021 through 2025 and to transfer the Lanvin brand from IP Suisse to Interparfums, SA by December 31, 2025.
The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2017.
