⁽¹⁾

In March 2019, the Company sold its 20% interest in Ningbo Material Girl Fashion Co. Ltd. (“Material Girl China”) to Ningbo Peacebird Fashion & Accessories Co. Ltd. for $3.0 million in cash. Pursuant to the agreement, the sale price was reduced by an initial cash investment of $0.2 million, as well as $0.6 million of brand management expenses incurred since the inception of the Material Girl China entity, resulting in total net proceeds of $2.2 million. Additionally, Purim LLC, our MG Icon partner, is entitled to 33.3% of the net proceeds (or approximately $0.7 million) resulting in the Company’s portion of the net proceeds from the transaction to be approximately $1.5 million. As a result of this transaction, the Company recognized a gain of $0.2 million, which has been recorded within Other Income in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations during FY 2019.

⁽²⁾

As a result of recent losses, primarily due to the impact of COVID-19 on the retail industry, the Company determined that the losses associated with this investment were other than temporary and determined that the fair value of its investment was de minimis. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $9.8 million during FY 2020.

⁽³⁾	In August 2020, the Company rescinded the trademark rights for the Ecko/Marc Ecko brand in exchange for its equity interest in the joint venture and recorded an impairment charge of $9.7 million during FY 2020.
