Organization and Nature of Operations

Overview

Sequential Brands Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “New Sequential”) owns a portfolio of consumer brands in the fashion, home, athletic and lifestyle categories. The Company aims to maximize the strategic value of its brands by promoting, marketing and licensing its global brands through various distribution channels, including to retailers, wholesalers and distributors in the United States and in certain international territories. The Company’s core strategy is to enhance and monetize the global reach of its existing brands, and to pursue additional strategic acquisitions to grow the scope of and diversify its portfolio of brands. The Company licenses brands to both wholesale and direct-to-retail licensees. In a wholesale and distributor license, a wholesale supplier is granted rights (typically on an exclusive basis) to a single or small group of related product categories for a particular brand for sale to multiple accounts within an approved channel of distribution and territory. In a direct-to-retail license, a single retailer is granted the right (typically on an exclusive basis) to sell branded products in a broad range of product categories through its brick and mortar stores and e-commerce sites. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had more than one-hundred fifty licensees, with wholesale licensees comprising a significant majority.

The Company was formed on June 5, 2015, for the purpose of effecting the merger of Singer Merger Sub, Inc. with and into SQBG, Inc. (formerly known as Sequential Brands Group, Inc.) (“Old Sequential”) and the merger of Madeline Merger Sub, Inc. with and into Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. (“MSLO”), with Old Sequential and MSLO each surviving the merger as wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the “Mergers”). Prior to the Mergers, the Company did not conduct any activities other than those incidental to its formation and the matters contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 22, 2015, as amended, by and among the Company, MSLO, Old Sequential, Singer Merger Sub, Inc., and Madeline Merger Sub, Inc. (the “Merger Agreement”). On December 4, 2015, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Old Sequential and MSLO completed the strategic combination of their respective businesses and became wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. Old Sequential was the accounting acquirer in the Mergers; therefore, the historical consolidated financial statements for Old Sequential for periods prior to the Mergers are considered to be the historical financial statements of the Company and thus, the Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect Old Sequential’s consolidated financial statements for the period from January 1, 2015 through December 4, 2015, and the Company’s consolidated financial statements thereafter. References to “the Company” when referring to periods prior to the consummation of the Mergers on December 4, 2015 are references to Old Sequential.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations or cash flows. It is the Company’s opinion that the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the SEC on March 14, 2016, which contains the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013. The financial information as of December 31, 2015 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 or for any future interim periods.

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation and Correction of Immaterial Error

On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03 – “Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. The standard’s core principle is that debt issuance costs related to a note are reflected in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of that note and amortization of debt issuance costs is reported in interest expense.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2016

(UNAUDITED)

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2015-03, the Company has reclassified certain balance sheet accounts for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. The Company reclassified approximately $7.9 million between Other assets and Long-term debt, net of current portion in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2015.

Additionally, the Company has corrected an immaterial error in its condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This correction is related to the payment of certain guaranteed obligations in connection with previous acquisitions and reflects an increase in cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1.0 million and a decrease in cash provided by financing activities of approximately $1.0 million. There is no impact to the condensed consolidated balance sheets, unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations or unaudited condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity. Any impacts on prior periods in future filings will be corrected prospectively.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from estimates.

Discontinued Operations

The Company has accounted for the closure of its wholesale operations during 2013 as discontinued operations in accordance with the guidance provided in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, and ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, which requires that only a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity, that represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the reporting entity’s operations that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and has operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the entity be reported as discontinued operations and assets held for sale. In the period a component of an entity has been disposed of or classified as held for sale, the results of operations for the periods presented are reclassified into separate line items in the statements of operations. Assets and liabilities are also reclassified into separate line items on the related balance sheets for the periods presented. The statements of cash flows for the periods presented are also reclassified to reflect the results of discontinued operations as separate line items.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has entered into various license agreements that provide revenues based on guaranteed minimum royalty payments and advertising/marketing fees with additional royalty revenues based on a percentage of defined sales. Guaranteed minimum royalty payments and advertising/marketing revenue are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of each contract year, as defined in each license agreement. Royalty payments exceeding the guaranteed minimum royalty payments are recognized as income during the period corresponding to the licensee’s sales. Payments received as consideration for the grant of a license are recorded as deferred revenue at the time payment is received and recognized ratably as revenue over the term of the license agreement. Advanced royalty payments are recorded as deferred revenue at the time payment is received and recognized as revenue as earned. Revenue is not recognized unless collectability is reasonably assured.

If license agreements are terminated prior to the original licensing period, the Company recognizes revenue in the amount of any contractual termination fees, unless such amounts are deemed non-recoverable.

With respect to editorial content for books, the Company receives advance payments from the Company’s publishers and recognizes revenue when manuscripts are delivered to and accepted by the publishers. Revenue is also earned from book publishing when sales on a unit basis exceed the advanced royalty.

Television sponsorship revenues are generally recorded ratably across the period when new episodes initially air.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash at June 30, 2016 consists of cash deposited with a financial institution required as collateral for the Company’s cash-collateralized letter of credit facilities.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts, based on the Company’s ongoing discussions with its licensees and other customers and its evaluation of their creditworthiness, payment history and account aging. Accounts receivable balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $0.5 million and $0.3 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

The Company’s accounts receivable amounted to approximately $34.3 million and approximately $42.0 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Two licensees accounted for an aggregate of approximately 28% (15% and 13%) of the Company’s total consolidated accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2016. Two licensees accounted for an aggregate of approximately 26% (15% and 11%) of the Company’s total consolidated accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2015. The Company does not believe the accounts receivable balance from these licensees represents a significant collection risk based on past collection experience.

Investments

The Company has marketable securities that are classified as available-for-sale securities under ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Such available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and, at the time of purchase, were reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as an investing activity. The Company reviews its available-for-sale securities at each reporting period to determine whether a decline in fair value is other-than-temporary. Any decline in fair value that is determined to be other-than-temporary would result in an adjustment for an impairment charge in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The primary factors the Company considers in its determination are (i) the length of time that the fair value of the available-for-sale security is below the Company’s carrying value, (ii) the financial condition and operating performance of the available-for-sale security, (iii) the reason for decline in fair value and (iv) the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment in available-for-sale securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for a recovery in fair value. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities, if any, are determined on a specific-identification basis. The unrealized gains and losses on the available-for-sale securities held by the Company as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are set forth below.

(UNAUDITED)

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has concluded that the decline in fair value of its available-for-sale securities is not other-than-temporary. The available-for-sale securities have been in a loss position for less than twelve months.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. In evaluating goodwill for impairment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Qualitative factors considered include, for example, macroeconomic and industry conditions, overall financial performance and other relevant entity-specific events. If the Company bypasses the qualitative assessment, or concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, it then performs a two-step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of goodwill impairment to be recognized, if any.

In the first step, the Company will compare the estimated fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value. The Company has determined it has a single reporting unit, and considers its market capitalization (calculated as total common shares outstanding multiplied by the common equity price per share, as adjusted for a control premium factor) to represent its estimated fair value. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, no further analysis is needed. If, however, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company will proceed to the second step and calculate the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill to determine whether any impairment is required. The implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill is calculated by allocating the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to all of the unit’s assets and liabilities as if the unit had been acquired in a business combination. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount of that excess.

Intangible assets represent trademarks, customer agreements and patents related to the Company’s brands and a favorable lease. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but instead are subject to impairment evaluation. The carrying value of intangible assets and other finite-lived assets is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying amount of the indefinite-lived intangible asset may not be recoverable. When conducting its impairment assessment, the Company initially performs a qualitative evaluation of whether it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. If it is determined by a qualitative evaluation that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired, the Company then tests the asset for recoverability. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to its expected future undiscounted net cash flows. If the carrying amount of such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the recoverability of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company changed its annual impairment testing date from December 31 to October 1. The Company believes this new date is preferable because it allows for more timely completion of the annual impairment test prior to the end of its annual financial reporting period. The Company has concluded that this change in accounting principle is not material to its financial statements, in part because the change does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. The Company has determined that it will be impracticable to objectively determine projected cash flow and related valuation estimates that would have been used as of each October 1 of prior reporting periods without the use of hindsight. As such, the Company will apply the change in annual impairment testing date prospectively beginning October 1, 2016.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock is recorded at cost as a reduction of equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation cost for restricted stock is measured using the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock at the date the common stock is granted. For restricted stock, for which restrictions lapse with the passage of time (“time-based restricted stock”), compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis, reduced for estimated forfeitures, over the period between the issue date and the date that restrictions lapse. Time-based restricted stock is included in total shares of common stock outstanding upon the lapse of applicable restrictions. For restricted stock, for which restrictions are based on performance measures (“performance stock units” or “PSUs”), restrictions lapse when those performance measures have been deemed achieved. Compensation cost for PSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis, reduced for estimated forfeitures, during the period from the date on which the likelihood of the PSUs being earned is deemed probable and (x) the end of the fiscal year during which such PSUs are granted or (y) the date on which awards of such PSUs may be approved by the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Compensation Committee”) on a discretionary basis, as applicable. PSUs are included in total shares of common stock outstanding upon the lapse of applicable restrictions. PSUs are included in total diluted shares of common stock outstanding when the performance measures have been deemed achieved but the PSUs have not yet been issued.

(UNAUDITED)

Compensation cost for stock options and warrants, in accordance with accounting for stock-based payment under GAAP, is calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on awards ultimately expected to vest, reduced for estimated forfeitures, and expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the grant. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant based on the Company’s historical forfeiture experience and are revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

At each subsequent reporting period prior to the lapse of restrictions on warrants, time-based restricted stock and PSUs granted to non-employees, the Company remeasures the aggregate compensation cost of such grants using the Company’s stock price at the end of such reporting period and revises the straight-line recognition of compensation cost in-line with such remeasured amount.

Income Taxes

Current income taxes are based on the respective periods’ taxable income for federal, foreign and state income tax reporting purposes. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. In accordance with ASU No. 2015-17 “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”, all deferred income taxes are reported and classified as non-current. A valuation allowance is required if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company applies the FASB guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The guidance clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with other authoritative GAAP and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance also addresses derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $0.6 million of certain unrecognized tax benefits, included as a component of long-term liabilities held for disposition from discontinued operations of wholesale business. The Company expects to reverse these unrecognized tax benefits during fiscal year 2016. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are recorded in income tax expense. Tax years that remain open for assessment for federal and state tax purposes include the years ended December 31, 2012 through December 31, 2015.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Sequential Brands Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the reporting period, including stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. The shares used to calculate basic and diluted EPS consist of the following:

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable and marketable securities. Cash is held to meet working capital needs and future acquisitions. Restricted cash is cash pledged as collateral for a comparable amount of irrevocable standby letters of credit for certain of the MSLO leased properties. Substantially all of the Company’s cash, restricted cash and marketable securities are deposited with high quality financial institutions. At times, however, such cash, restricted cash and marketable securities may be in deposit accounts that exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts as of June 30, 2016.

Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is minimal due to the collection history and the nature of the Company’s revenues.

Customer Concentrations

The Company recorded net revenues of approximately $34.2 million and approximately $20.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, two licensees represented at least 10% of net revenue, accounting for 13% and 11% of the Company’s net revenue. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, two licensees represented at least 10% of net revenue, accounting for 18% and 14% of the Company’s net revenue.

The Company recorded net revenues of approximately $68.2 million and approximately $33.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, two licensees represented at least 10% of net revenue, accounting for 12% and 11% of the Company’s net revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, two licensees represented at least 10% of net revenue, accounting for 21% and 16% of the Company’s net revenue.

Loss Contingencies

The Company recognizes contingent losses that are both probable and estimable. In this context, probable means circumstances under which events are likely to occur. The Company records legal costs pertaining to contingencies as incurred.

Contingent Consideration

The Company recognizes the acquisition-date fair value of contingent consideration as part of the consideration transferred in exchange for the acquiree or assets of the acquiree in a business combination. The contingent consideration is classified as either a liability or equity in accordance with ASC 480-10, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. If classified as a liability, the liability is remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting date until the contingency is settled. Increases in fair value are recorded as losses, while decreases are recorded as gains. If classified as equity, contingent consideration is not remeasured and subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.

Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interest from continuing operations recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 represents income allocations to Elan Polo International, Inc., a member of DVS Footwear International, LLC (“DVS LLC”), With You, Inc., a member of With You LLC (the partnership between the Company and Jessica Simpson) and JALP, LLC (“JALP”), a member of FUL IP Holdings, LLC (“FUL IP”). Noncontrolling interest from continuing operations recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 represents income allocations to DVS LLC and With You LLC.

Reportable Segment

An operating segment, in part, is a component of an enterprise whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. Operating segments may be aggregated only to a limited extent. The Company’s CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has a single operating and reportable segment. In addition, the Company has no foreign operations or any assets in foreign locations. Nearly all of the Company’s operations consist of a single revenue stream, which is the licensing of its trademark portfolio, with an immaterial portion of revenues derived from television, book, café operations and certain commissions.

Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments

ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and provides for expanded disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

The Company determines or calculates the fair value of financial instruments using quoted market prices in active markets when such information is available or using appropriate present value or other valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating available market discount rate information for similar types of instruments while estimating for non-performance and liquidity risk. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit spreads and estimates of future cash flow.

Assets and liabilities typically recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis to which ASC 820-10 applies include:

	•	non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in an acquisition or business combination, and
	•	long-lived assets measured at fair value due to an impairment assessment under ASC 360-10-15, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

This topic defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a three-level hierarchy, which encourages an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820-10 requires that assets and liabilities recorded at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

	•	Level 1 - inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
	•	Level 2 - inputs utilize other-than-quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
	•	Level 3 - inputs are unobservable and are typically based on the Company’s own assumptions, including situations where there is little, if any, market activity. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that are classified within the Level 3 classification.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company classifies such financial assets or liabilities based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no assets or liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, except for the Company’s available-for-sale securities (see Note 2), interest rate swap (see Note 7) and the contingent earn outs relating to the Linens ‘N Things brand (the “LNT Contingent Earn Out”) and Legacy Payments for Ms. Martha Stewart (see Note 11). The following table sets forth the carrying value and the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities required to be disclosed at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

		Carrying Value				Fair Value

LNT Contingent Earn outs	3	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-
Legacy Payments	3	$	1,871	$	-	$	1,871	$	-

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

The Company records its available-for-sale securities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value using Level 1 inputs. The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities is based upon quoted market prices for identical assets in active markets.

During 2015, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement related to term loans with a $20.0 million notional value (the “2015 Swap Agreement”). The Company records its interest rate swap on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value using Level 2 inputs. As of June 30, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap is immaterial. The valuation technique used to determine the fair value of the interest rate swap approximates the net present value of future cash flows which is the estimated amount that a bank would receive or pay to terminate the swap agreement at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates.

The objective of the swap agreement is to reduce the variability in cash flows for interest payments associated with the loan agreements, which are based on the 1-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) rates. The Company has formally documented the swap agreement as a cash flow hedge of the Company’s exposure to 1-month LIBOR. Because the critical terms of the swap agreement and the hedged items coincided at inception (e.g., notional amount, interest rate reset dates, interest rate payment dates, maturity/expiration date and underlying index), the hedge was expected to completely offset changes in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in the 1-month LIBOR rate over the term of the hedge. The effectiveness of the hedge relationship is periodically assessed during the life of the hedge by comparing the current terms of the swap agreement and the loan agreements to assure they continue to coincide and through an evaluation of the continued ability of the respective counterparties to honor their obligations under the 2015 Swap Agreement. When the key terms no longer match exactly, hedge effectiveness (both prospective and retrospective) is assessed by evaluating the cumulative dollar offset for the actual hedging instrument relative to a hypothetical derivative whose terms exactly match the terms of the hedged item. Because the notional amounts of the Company’s swap agreement no longer match the notional amounts of the loan agreements exactly, the Company assessed the ineffectiveness of the swap agreement and determined that differences were immaterial as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The components of the swap agreement as of June 30, 2016, are as follows:

	Notional Value		Derivative Asset		Derivative Liability
	(in thousands)

Term Loans	$	20,000	$	-	$	(34	)

For purposes of this fair value disclosure, the Company based its fair value estimate for the 2015 Term Loans and 2015 Revolving Loan (each, as defined in Note 7) on its internal valuation whereby the Company applied the discounted cash flow method to its expected cash flow payments due under the loan agreements based on market interest rate quotes as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 for debt with similar risk characteristics and maturities.

On the date of the acquisition, no value was assigned to the contingent earn out based on the remote probability that the Linens ‘N Things brand will achieve the performance measurements. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the contingent earn out has no value. The Company continues to evaluate these performance measurements at each reporting period and will update their fair values when achievement of the performance measurements becomes probable.

The Company determined the acquisition date fair value of Legacy Payments (as defined in Note 11) due to Ms. Martha Stewart was approximately $1.7 million and updated the preliminary purchase price during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Amortization expense amounted to approximately $0.7 million and approximately $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Finite-lived intangible assets represent trademarks, customer agreements and patents related to the Company’s brands and a favorable lease. Finite-lived assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but instead are subject to impairment evaluation. The carrying value of finite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Historically, indefinite-lived intangible assets have been tested for impairment on an annual basis at December 31 and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying amount of the indefinite-lived intangible asset may not be recoverable. When conducting its impairment assessment, the Company initially performs a qualitative evaluation of whether it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. If it is determined by a qualitative evaluation that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired, the Company then tests the asset for recoverability. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to its expected future undiscounted net cash flows. If the carrying amount of such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the recoverability of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. No events or circumstances indicate an impairment has been identified subsequent to the Company’s December 31, 2015 impairment testing.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company changed its annual impairment testing date from December 31 to October 1. The Company believes this new date is preferable because it allows for more timely completion of the annual impairment test prior to the end of its annual financial reporting period. This change in accounting principle does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. The Company has determined that it will be impracticable to objectively determine projected cash flow and related valuation estimates that would have been used as of each October 1 of prior reporting periods without the use of hindsight. As such, the Company will apply the change in annual impairment testing date prospectively beginning October 1, 2016.

On February 24, 2015, the Company sold the People’s Liberation ® brand to a third party for (i) $0.7 million in cash and a note receivable and (ii) an earn-out of $1.0 million in cash (the “Earn-out”) in the event that total gross sales of products under the People’s Liberation ® brand equal or exceed $30.0 million during the 2015 calendar year (the “People’s Liberation Sale Price”). As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a gain of $0.7 million because the People’s Liberation ® brand had no value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The gain is recorded in other income in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2015. The third party agreed to pay the Company one-fifth of the People’s Liberation Sale Price upon closing and one-fifth of the People’s Liberation Sale Price on the anniversary of the closing for the next four years. The Company reported the short-term portion of the receivable in prepaid expenses and other current assets and the long-term portion in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Earn-out was not achieved during the year ended December 31, 2015, as total gross sales of products under the People’s Liberation ® brand did not equal or exceed $30.0 million.

On December 4, 2015, in conjunction with the acquisition of MSLO, the Company, Old Sequential and certain other subsidiaries of the Company entered into an amendment to the Second Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”), dated as of April 8, 2015 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “BoA Credit Agreement”), by and among, Old Sequential, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto (the “BoA Lenders”) and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “BoA Agent”).

The Amendment has an effective date of December 4, 2015, and amends certain provisions under the BoA Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) permit the consummation of the Mergers, (ii) permit, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the increase in the aggregate revolving commitments and term loans under the BoA Credit Agreement by such amounts as would not cause the consolidated first lien leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such increase, to exceed 2.00:1.00, (iii) permit the inclusion of not less than (a) $30.0 million of EBITDA representing EBITDA generation by MSLO, (b) $8.0 million of EBITDA representing EBITDA generation by Joe’s Holdings and (c) fees and expenses incurred and associated with the Mergers and the acquisition of Joe’s Holdings in certain provisions that relate to calculation of the consolidated first lien leverage ratio, (iv) permit the incurrence of indebtedness under the New Secured Term Loan Agreement (defined below) and (v) designate the Company as the “borrower” under the BoA Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Amendment provides for an additional $8.0 million of Tranche A-1 Term Loans which were made, on December 4, 2015, to the Company by the BoA Lenders.

On December 4, 2015, the Company, Old Sequential and the BoA Agent entered into a Joinder and Assumption Agreement (the “Joinder and Assumption Agreement”), pursuant to which Old Sequential was discharged from its obligations, liabilities and rights as the “borrower” under the BoA Credit Agreement and the Company assumed all such obligations, liabilities and rights and was designated as the “borrower” under the BoA Credit Agreement for all purposes thereunder.

In addition, on December 4, 2015, the Company, Old Sequential and certain other subsidiaries of the Company entered into a new Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Secured Term Loan Agreement”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “New Agreement Agent”), and the lenders party to the existing Amended and Restated Second Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2015 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Second Lien Credit Agreement”), by and among, Old Sequential, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Second Lien Agent”).

The New Secured Term Loan Agreement provides for a six-year $368.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Facility”), which consists of (i) $215.5 million of loans outstanding under the Existing Second Lien Credit Agreement and (ii) $152.5 million of new term loans which were made, on December 4, 2015, to the Company by the lenders party to the New Secured Term Loan Agreement.

The New Secured Term Loan Agreement, together with the Term Loan A and Term Loan A-1 tranches of the BoA Credit Agreement represent the 2015 Term Loans. The revolving credit line of the BoA Credit Agreement represents the 2015 Revolving Loan.

The Company used the proceeds of the new loans to fund the payment of the purchase price, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Mergers and related transactions.

The Company has the option to request the addition of one or more additional term loan facilities or the increase of term loan commitments under the Facility by such amounts as would not cause the consolidated total leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such addition and increase, to exceed 6.00:1.00, which additions and increase are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the New Secured Term Loan Agreement.

The loans under the Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (i) LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 8.00% to 8.75% per annum or (ii) the base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 7.00% to 7.75% per annum, in each case based upon the consolidated total leverage ratio and/or the consolidated net leverage ratio. Specifically, the applicable margin with respect to LIBOR loans under the New Secured Term Loan Agreement is as set forth below:

Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio	Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio	Applicable Margin – LIBOR Loans
> 6.00 : 1.00	≥ 5.75 : 1.00		8.75	%
≥ 4.75 : 1.00 ≤ 6.00 : 1.00	≥ 4.50 : 1.00 < 5.75 : 1.00		8.25	%
< 4.75 : 1.00	< 4.50 : 1.00		8.00	%

The Company’s obligations under the New Secured Term Loan Agreement and any hedging or cash management obligations entered into by the Company or any of its current and future domestic restricted subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors” and, together with the Company, the “Loan Parties”) with a lender under the New Secured Term Loan Agreement, the New Agreement Agent or an affiliate of any such person are guaranteed by the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor. The Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the New Secured Term Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of their assets, subject to certain customary exceptions.

The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of loans outstanding under the Facility (without payment of a premium or penalty) (i) in the case of any disposition of intellectual property, the then applicable LTV Percentage (as defined in the BoA Credit Agreement) of the orderly liquidation value thereof, (ii) in the case of any other disposition of any other assets, 100% of the net proceeds thereof, subject to certain reinvestment rights, and (iii) in the case of any Consolidated Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the New Secured Term Loan Agreement), 50% thereof, which shall decrease to 0% if the consolidated total leverage ratio is less than 3.00:1.00. The loans under the Facility are not subject to amortization.

The Company may make, in whole or in part, voluntarily prepayments of the loans outstanding under the Facility. Such voluntarily prepayments are subject to the payment of customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR-based borrowings and in certain cases to the prepayment premium set forth in the New Secured Term Loan Agreement.

The New Secured Term Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Loan Parties and their subsidiaries, including, without limitation, restrictions on liens, investments, indebtedness, fundamental changes, dispositions, restricted payments and prepayment of indebtedness. The New Secured Term Loan Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Loan Parties and their subsidiaries to (i) not exceed a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio initially set at 7.25:1.00, which decreases periodically over the term of the New Secured Term Loan Agreement until the final maximum ratio of 6.75:1.00 is reached for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2019 and thereafter and (ii) not exceed a maximum consolidated first lien leverage ratio initially set at 2.47:1.00, which decreases periodically over the term of the New Secured Term Loan Agreement until the final maximum ratio of 2.30:1.00 is reached for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2019 and thereafter.

The New Secured Term Loan Agreement contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, covenant defaults, breaches of certain representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain material indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, certain events under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, material judgments and a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is not cured within any applicable grace period or is not waived, the New Agreement Agent, at the request of the lenders under the New Secured Term Loan Agreement, is required to take various actions, including, without limitation, the acceleration of amounts due thereunder. At June 30, 2016, the Company is in compliance with the covenants included in the New Secured Term Loan Agreement.

In connection with the BoA Credit Agreement and the New Secured Term Loan Agreement, the BoA Agent and the New Agreement Agent have entered into an Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2015 (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), which was acknowledged by the Company and the guarantors party thereto. The Intercreditor Agreement establishes various inter-lender terms, including, without limitation, priority of liens, permitted actions by each party, application of proceeds, exercise of remedies in the case of a default, incurrence of additional indebtedness, releases of collateral and limitations on the amendment of the BoA Credit Agreement and the New Secured Term Loan Agreement without the consent of the other party.

MSLO Stockholder Complaint

In connection with the Mergers, the following 13 putative stockholder class action lawsuits have were been filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware: (1) David Shaev Profit Sharing Plan f/b/o David Shaev v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on June 25, 2015; (2) Malka Raul v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on June 26, 2015; (3) Daniel Lisman v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on June 29, 2015; (4) Matthew Sciabacucchi v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 2, 2015; (5) Harold Litwin v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 5, 2015; (6) Richard Schiffrin v. Martha Stewart filed on July 7, 2015; (7) Cedric Terrell v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 8, 2015; (8) Dorothy Moore v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 8, 2015; (9) Paul Dranove v. Pierre De Villemejane. et. al. filed on July 8, 2015; (10) Phuc Nguyen v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 10, 2015; (11) Kenneth Steiner v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 16, 2015; (12) Karen Gordon v. Martha Stewart et. al. filed on July 27, 2015; and (13) Anne Seader v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. et. al. filed on July 28, 2015. All of the 13 class action lawsuits name the Old Sequential, MSLO, the MSLO board of directors, Madeline Merger Sub, Inc., Singer Merger Sub, Inc. and New Sequential as defendants and allege that (a) members of the MSLO board of directors breached their fiduciary duties and (b) Old Sequential, MSLO, Madeline Merger Sub, Inc., Singer Merger Sub Inc. and New Sequential aided and abetted such alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the MSLO board of directors. On August 18, 2015, the Delaware Chancery Court issued an order consolidating these actions for all purposes under the caption In re Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc., et. al. to be the operative complaint in the consolidated action. On January 12, 2016, after the consummation of the Mergers, the plaintiffs filed a Verified Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, naming Ms. Martha Stewart, the New Sequential, Old Sequential, Madeline Merger Sub, Inc. and Singer Merger Sub, Inc. and alleging that (a) Ms. Stewart breached her fiduciary duties to MSLO’s stockholders and (b) New Sequential, Old Sequential, Madeline Merger Sub, Inc. and Singer Merger Sub, Inc. aided and abetted Ms. Stewart’s breach of her fiduciary duties. The plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified damages allegedly sustained by the plaintiffs, restitution and disgorgement by Ms. Stewart, the recovery of plaintiff’s attorney’s fees and other relief. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to the claims made by the plaintiffs, and we are vigorously defending such claims. Litigation costs in this matter may be significant. The Company does not expect that the ultimate resolution of this matter will have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

General Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the Company believes that such matters are currently not material, there can be no assurance that matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which the Company is, or could be, involved in litigation, will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. Contingent liabilities arising from potential litigation are assessed by management based on the individual analysis of these proceedings and on the opinion of the Company’s lawyers and legal consultants.

(“TCP”), an affiliate of Tengram Capital Partners Gen2 Fund, L.P., which is one of the Company’s largest stockholders, the Company has engaged TCP, effective as of January 1, 2013, to provide services to the Company pertaining to (i) mergers and acquisitions, (ii) debt and equity financing and (iii) such other related areas as the Company may reasonably request from time to time (the “TCP Agreement”). TCP is entitled to receive compensation of $1.0 million, including fees and reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses in connection with performing its services under the TCP Agreement. The TCP Agreement remains in effect for a period continuing through the earlier of five years or the date on which TCP and its affiliates cease to own in excess of 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock in the Company. On August 15, 2014, in connection with the Galaxy Merger Agreement, the Company and TCP entered into an amendment to the TCP Agreement (the “Amended TCP Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, TCP is entitled to receive annual fees of $0.9 million beginning with fiscal year 2014.

The Company did not pay TCP any fees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company paid TCP approximately $0.4 million and approximately $0.9 million for services under the Amended TCP Agreement during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. At June 30, 2016 the Company owed TCP approximately $0.9 million for services performed in connection with the Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 14). This amount is included in operating expenses in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2015 the Company did not owe TCP any fees for services.

Additionally, in July 2013, the Company entered into a consulting arrangement with an employee of TCP (the “TCP Employee”), pursuant to which the TCP Employee provides legal and other consulting services at the request of the Company from time to time. The TCP Employee was also issued 125,000 shares of restricted stock, vesting over a four-year period and 180,000 PSUs, vesting over three years in increments of 20% for 2014, 20% for 2015 and 60% for 2016. The Company paid the TCP Employee approximately $0.1 million and approximately $0.2 million for services under the consulting arrangement during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company paid the TCP Employee approximately $0.2 million and approximately $0.3 million for services under the consulting arrangement during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These amounts are included in operating expenses in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2016 the Company owed the TCP Employee approximately $0.2 million for services performed. At December 31, 2015 the Company did not owe the TCP Employee any fees for services.

A division president of the Company maintains a passive ownership interest in one of the Company’s licensees, E.S. Originals, Inc. (“ESO”). The Company receives royalties from ESO under license agreements for certain of the Company’s brands in the footwear category. The Company recorded approximately $4.5 million and $3.7 million of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for royalties earned from ESO license agreements. The Company recorded approximately $8.2 million and $7.1 million of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for royalties earned from ESO license agreements.

The IP Agreements grant the Company the right to use of certain properties owned by Ms. Stewart.

The Intangible Asset Agreement has an initial term commencing at December 4, 2015 and ending on December 31, 2020, provided that the term will automatically be renewed for five additional calendar years ending December 31, 2025 (subject to earlier termination as provided in the employment agreement) if either the aggregate gross licensing revenues (as defined in the employment agreement) for calendar years 2018 through 2020 exceed $195 million or the gross licensing revenues for calendar year 2020 equal or exceed $65 million. The IP License Agreement is perpetual.

During the term of the Intangible Asset Agreement with the Company, Lifestyle Research Center LLC will be entitled to receive a guaranteed annual payment of $1.7 million, which amounts are being paid in connection with the Mergers regardless of Ms. Stewart’s continued employment with the Company. During the term of the IP Agreement with the Company, Ms. Stewart will be entitled to receive a guaranteed annual payment of $1.3 million, which amounts are being paid in connection with the Mergers regardless of Ms. Stewart’s continued employment with the Company. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company expensed non-cash interest of approximately $0.2 million and approximately $0.4 million, respectively, related to the accretion of the present value of these guaranteed contractual payments.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Customers with Contracts (Topic 606) Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” (“ASU 2016-12”). ASU 2016-12 amends certain aspects of ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Customers with Contracts (Topic 606)”. The amendments which were issued in response to feedback received by the FASB-International Accounting Standards Board joint revenue recognition Transition Resource Group, include the following:

Collectibility – ASU 2016-12 clarifies the objective of the entity’s collectibility assessment and contains new guidance on when an entity would recognize as revenue consideration it receives if the entity concludes that collectibility is not probable.

Presentation of sales tax and other similar taxes collected from customers – Entities are permitted to present revenue net of sales taxes collected on behalf of governmental authorities (i.e., to exclude from the transaction price sales taxes that meet certain criteria).

Noncash consideration – An entity’s calculation of the transaction price for contracts containing noncash consideration would include the fair value of the noncash consideration to be received as of the contract inception date. Further, subsequent changes in the fair value of noncash consideration after contract inception would be subject to the variable consideration constraint only if the fair value varies for reasons other than its form.

Contract modifications and completed contracts at transition – The ASU establishes a practical expedient for contract modifications at transition and defines completed contracts as those for which all (or substantially all) revenue was recognized under the applicable revenue guidance before the new revenue standard was initially adopted.

Transition technical correction – Entities that elect to use the full retrospective transition method to adopt the new revenue standard would no longer be required to disclose the effect of the change in accounting principle on the period of adoption (as is currently required by ASC 250-10-50-1(b)(2)); however, entities would still be required to disclose the effects on preadoption periods that were retrospectively adjusted.

ASU 2016-12 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date, December 31, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-11, “Rescission of SEC Guidance Because of Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 and 2014-16 Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the March 3, 2016 EITF Meeting” (“ASU 2016-11”). ASU 2016-11 rescinds certain SEC guidance from the FASB ASC in response to announcements made by the SEC staff at the Emerging Issues Task Force’s March 3, 2016 meeting. Specifically, ASU 2016-11 supersedes SEC observer comments on the following topics:

Upon the adoption of ASU 2014-09:

Revenue and expense recognition for freight services in process (ASC 605-20-S99-2)

Accounting for shipping and handling fees and costs (ASC 605-45-S99-1)

Accounting for consideration given by a vendor to a customer (ASC 605-50-S99-1)

Accounting for gas-balancing arrangements (ASC 932-10-S99-5).

Upon the adoption of ASU 2014-16:

Determining the nature of a host contract related to a hybrid financial instrument issued in the form of a share under ASC 815 (ASC 815-10-S99-3)

ASU 2016-11 is effective upon the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2014-16. The adoption of ASU 2016-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (“ASU 2016-10”). ASU 2016-10 amends certain aspects of the guidance in ASU 2014-09 on (1) identifying performance obligations and (2) licensing. The amendments include the following:

Identifying performance obligations:

Immaterial promised goods or services – Entities may disregard goods of services promised to a customer that are immaterial in the context of the contract.

Shipping and handling activities – Entities can elect to account for shipping or handling activities occurring after control has passed to the customer as a fulfillment cost rather than as a revenue element (i.e., a promised service in the contract).

Identifying when promises represent performance obligations – The new guidance refines the separation criteria for assessing whether promised goods and services are distinct, specifically the “separately identifiable” principle (the “distinct within the context of the contract” criterion) and supporting factors.

Licensing implementation guidance:

Determining the nature of an entity’s promise in granting a license – intellectual property (IP) is classified as either functional or symbolic, and such classification should generally dictate whether, for a license granted to that IP, revenue must be recognized at a point in time or over time, respectively.

Sales-based and usage based royalties – The sales-based and usage-based royalty exception applies whenever the royalty is predominantly related to a license of IP. The ASU therefore indicates that an “entity should not split a sales-based or usage-based royalty into a portion subject to the recognition guidance on sales-based and usage-based royalties and a portion that is not subject to that guidance”.

Restriction of time, geographical location, and use – The ASU’s examples illustrate the distinction between restrictions that represent attributes of a license and provisions that specify that additional licenses have been provided.

Renewals of licenses that provide a right to use IP – Revenue should not be recognized for renewals or extensions of licenses to use IP until the renewal period begins.

ASU 2016-10 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date, December 31, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Simplifying the Accounting for Share-Based Payments” (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance, which is part of the Board’s simplification initiative, also contains two practical expedients under which nonpublic entities can use a simplified method to estimate the expected term of an award and make a one-time election to switch from fair value measurement to intrinsic value measurement for liability-classified awards. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, “Simplifying the Equity Method of Accounting” (“ASU 2016-07”). ASU 2016-07 simplifies the equity method of accounting by eliminating the requirement to retrospectively apply the equity method to an investment that subsequently qualifies for such accounting as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. Consequently, when an investment qualifies for the equity method (as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence), the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee would be added to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and the equity method would be applied subsequently from the date on which the investor obtains the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee. ASU 2016-07 further requires that unrealized holding gains or losses in accumulated other comprehensive income related to an available-for-sale security that becomes eligible for the equity method be recognized in earnings as of the date on which the investment qualifies for the equity method. ASU 2016-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the guidance prospectively to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence occurring after the effective date of ASU 2016-07. Additional transition disclosures are not required upon adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05, “Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships” (“ASU 2016-05”). ASU 2016-05 clarifies that “a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument in an existing hedging relationship would not, in and of itself, be considered a termination of the derivative instrument” or “a change in a critical term of the hedging relationship”. As long as all other hedge accounting criteria in ASC 815 are met, a hedging relationship in which the hedging derivative instrument is novated would not be discontinued or need to be redesignated. This clarification applies to both cash flow and fair value hedging relationships. ASU 2016-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity would apply the guidance prospectively unless it elects modified retrospective transition. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-05 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU 2016-02”). The core principle of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (i.e., calendar years beginning on January 1, 2019), including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Amending Guidance on Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Although ASU 2016-01 retains many current requirements, it significantly revises an entity’s accounting related to (1) the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and (2) the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. ASU 2016-01 also amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations – Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments” (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 requires the recognition of adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period, in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. The effects of the adjustments to provisional amounts on depreciation, amortization or other income effects should be recognized in current-period earning as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. Disclosure of the portion of the adjustment recorded in current-period earnings that would have been reported in prior reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized at the acquisition date is also required. ASU 2015-16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-16 during the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of ASU 2015-16 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. The standard’s core principle is that debt issuance costs related to a note are reflected in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of that note and amortization of debt issuance costs is reported in interest expense. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is allowed for all entities for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Entities would apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods (i.e., the balance sheet for each period is adjusted). The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 during the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), which contains a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede all existing revenue recognition guidance. ASU No. 2014-09 requires that a company recognize revenue at the time it transfers promised goods or services to a customer and in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date, December 31, 2016. Companies have the option of using either a full retrospective approach or a modified approach to adopt in ASU No. 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

On July 1, 2016 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, SBG-Gaiam Holdings LLC (formerly known as Stretch & Bend Holdings LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (“SBG-Gaiam” or the “Purchaser”) completed the acquisition pursuant to the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with GAIAM, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Seller”) pursuant to which Purchaser agreed to acquire the branded consumer business of Seller for a total purchase price of approximately $145.7 million in cash. As part of the transaction, SBG-Gaiam acquired Seller’s yoga, fitness and wellness product business, which include the GAIAM and SPRI brands. In tandem with the transaction, the Company signed long-term licensing agreements for the brands’ core categories, which became effective upon closing. Fit For Life, LLC will be the licensing partner for the hard goods and equipment categories as well as the digital properties, and High Life will be the licensing partner for GAIAM’s yoga and athleisure apparel business.

On the Closing Date, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into (i) the Third Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Amended BoA Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto and (ii) the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended GSO Credit Agreement”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto. The Company used a portion of the proceeds of the $287.5 million loans made to the Company under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement and the $415.0 million loans made to the Company under the Amended GSO Credit Agreement to fund the payment of the purchase price with respect to the acquisition of the Brand Business and costs and expenses incurred in connection with such acquisition and related transactions.

The Amended BoA Credit Agreement provides for several five-year credit facilities, consisting of (i) Tranche A Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $133.0 million (the “Tranche A Loans”), (ii) Tranche A-1 Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $44.5 million (the “Tranche A-1 Loans” and, together with the Tranche A Loans, the “BoA Term Loans”) and (iii) revolving credit commitments in the aggregate principal amount of $110.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, the loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Revolving Loans”). On the Closing Date, the total amount outstanding under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement was $258.0 million, including (i) $133.0 million of Tranche A Loans, (ii) $44.5 million of Tranche A-1 Loans and (iii) $80.5 million of Revolving Loans.

The loans under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to (i) with respect to the Revolving Loans and the Tranche A Loans (a) the LIBOR rate plus 3.50% per annum or (b) the base rate plus 2.50% per annum and (ii) with respect to the Tranche A-1 Loans (a) the LIBOR rate plus 7.00% per annum or (b) the base rate plus 6.00% per annum. The undrawn portions of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum.

The Company may make voluntary prepayments of the loans outstanding under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement, subject to the payment of customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR-based borrowings and, in certain cases, to the prepayment premium set forth in the Amended BoA Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company is mandated to make prepayments (without payment of a premium or penalty) under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement amounting to: (i) the loans outstanding under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement plus, (a) where intellectual property is disposed, 50.0% of the disposed intellectual property’s orderly liquidation value, and (b) where any other assets constituting collateral are disposed or upon the receipt of certain insurance proceeds, 100% of the net proceeds thereof, subject to certain reinvestment rights; and (ii) the Tranche A-1 Loans to the extent that the outstanding principal amount thereof exceeds 10.0% of the orderly liquidation value of the registered trademarks owned by the BoA Facility Loan Parties. Commencing on September 30, 2016, the BoA Term Loans will amortize in quarterly installments of $5.0 million.

The Amended BoA Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the BoA Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries. Moreover, the Amended BoA Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the BoA Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries to (i) maintain a positive net income, (ii) satisfy a maximum loan to value ratio set at 50.0% (applicable to the Revolving Loans and Tranche A Loans) and (iii) satisfy a maximum consolidated first lien leverage ratio, initially set at 2.80:1.00, decreasing over the term of the Amended BoA Credit Agreement until reaching the final maximum ratio of 2.50:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2018 and thereafter.

The Amended BoA Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default, including a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is not cured within any applicable grace period or not waived, the Bank of America Agent, at the request of the lenders under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement, must take various actions, including, without limitation, the acceleration of amounts due under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement.

Commencing on March 31, 2017, the Loans under the Amended GSO Credit Agreement will amortize in quarterly installments, equal to 2.00% per annum of the original aggregate principal amount thereof.

The Amended GSO Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the GSO Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” or MD&A, should be read in conjunction with our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and with the MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The various sections of this MD&A contain a number of forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. See the cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements on page 3 of this Quarterly Report for a description of important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected results.

Licensing and Brand Management Business

We own a portfolio of consumer brands in the fashion, home, athletic and lifestyle categories, including Martha Stewart, Jessica Simpson, AND1, Avia and Ellen Tracy. We aim to maximize the value of our brands by promoting, marketing and licensing the brands through various distribution channels, including to retailers, wholesalers and distributors in the United States and around the world. Our core strategy is to enhance and monetize the global reach of our existing brands, and to pursue additional strategic acquisitions to grow the scope of and diversify our portfolio of brands. We aim to acquire well-known consumer brands with high potential for growth and strong brand awareness. We additionally seek to diversify our portfolio by evaluating the strength of targeted brands and the expected viability and sustainability of future royalty streams. Upon the acquisition of a brand, we partner with leading wholesalers and retailers to drive incremental value and maximize brand equity. We focus on certain key initiatives in our licensing and brand management business. These initiatives include:

Maximizing the value of our existing brands by creating efficiencies, adding additional product categories, expanding distribution and retail presence and optimizing sales through innovative marketing that increases consumer brand awareness and loyalty;

Developing international expansion through additional licenses, partnerships and other arrangements with leading retailers and wholesalers outside the United States; and

Acquiring consumer brands (or the rights to such brands) with high consumer awareness, broad appeal, and applicability to a wide range of product categories.

Our business is designed to maximize the value of our brands through entry into license agreements with partners that are responsible for manufacturing and distributing our licensed products and, with the exception of our Martha Stewart brand, primarily responsible for the design of such licensed products. Our brands are licensed for a broad range of product categories, including apparel, footwear, eyewear, fashion accessories and home goods. We seek to select licensees who have demonstrated the ability to produce and sell quality products in their respective licensed categories and have the capability to meet or exceed the minimum sales thresholds and guaranteed minimum royalty payments that we generally require.

We license our brands to both wholesale and direct-to-retail licensees. In a wholesale license, a wholesale supplier is granted rights (typically on an exclusive basis) to a single or small group of related product categories for a particular brand for sale to multiple accounts within an approved channel of distribution and territory. In a direct-to-retail license, a single retailer is granted the right (typically on an exclusive basis) to sell branded products in a broad range of product categories through its brick and mortar stores and e-commerce sites. As of June 30, 2016, we had more than 150 licensees, with wholesale licensees comprising a significant majority.

Our license agreements typically require a licensee to pay us royalties based upon net sales and, in most cases, contain guaranteed minimum royalties regardless of the net sales generated by the licensee. Our license agreements also typically require licensees to support the brands by either paying or spending contractually guaranteed minimum amounts for the marketing and advertising of the respective licensed brands. As of June 30, 2016, we had contractual rights to receive an aggregate of approximately $332.5 million in minimum royalty and marketing and advertising revenue from our licensees through the balance of the current terms of such licenses, excluding any renewals.

Items Affecting Comparability of Periods Presented

As described more fully in Item 1 to this report, we were formed on June 5, 2015 for the purpose of effecting certain transactions consummated on December 4, 2015, as a result of which Old Sequential and MSLO became our wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Mergers”). Old Sequential was the accounting acquirer in the Mergers; therefore, the historical consolidated financial statements for Old Sequential for periods prior to the Mergers are considered to be the historical financial statements of Sequential Brands Group, Inc. and thus, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ending June 30, 2015 reflect Old Sequential’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for such period and our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ending June 30, 2016 reflect the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Sequential Brand Group Inc.

Fiscal Year

Our fiscal year ends on December 31. Each quarter of each fiscal year ends on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to exercise its judgment. We exercise considerable judgment with respect to establishing sound accounting policies and in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities, our recognition of revenues and expenses, and our disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on a variety of factors, including our historical experience, knowledge of our business and industry and current and expected economic conditions, that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We periodically re-evaluate our estimates and assumptions with respect to these judgments and modify our approach when circumstances indicate that modifications are necessary. While we believe that the factors we evaluate provide us with a meaningful basis for establishing and applying sound accounting policies, we cannot guarantee that the results will always be accurate. Since the determination of these estimates requires the exercise of judgment, actual results could differ from such estimates.

Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2016, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, there were no material changes to these policies, except for the following:

Change in Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Testing Date

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we changed our annual impairment testing date from December 31 to October 1. We believe this new date is preferable because it allows for more timely completion of the annual goodwill impairment test prior to the end of our annual financial reporting period. This change in accounting principle does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. We believe that it will be impracticable to objectively determine projected cash flow and related valuation estimates that would have been used as of each October 1 of prior reporting periods without the use of hindsight. As such, we will apply the change in annual impairment testing date prospectively beginning October 1, 2016.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash at June 30, 2016 consists of cash deposited with a financial institution that was required as collateral for our cash-collateralized letter of credit facilities.

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation and Correction of Immaterial Error

On January 1, 2016, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03 – “Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. The standard’s core principle is that debt issuance costs related to a note are reflected in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of that note and amortization of debt issuance costs is reported in interest expense.

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2015-03, we have reclassified certain balance sheet accounts for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. We reclassified approximately $7.9 million between Other assets and Long-term debt, net of current portion in our condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2015.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, results of operations information from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Change		Change
	2016			2015			(Dollars)		(Percentage)
	(in thousands, except percentages)

Net revenue	$	34,154		$	20,235		$	13,919		68.8	%
Operating expenses		20,920			11,925			8,995		75.4	%
Income from operations		13,234			8,310			4,924		59.3	%
Interest expense, net		10,599			7,792			2,807		36.0	%
Income before income taxes		2,635			518			2,117		408.7	%
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes		1,019			(31	)		1,050		-3387.1	%
Net income		1,616			549			1,067		194.4	%
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest		(1,681	)		(1,876	)		195		-10.4	%
Net loss attributable to Sequential Brands Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries	$	(65	)	$	(1,327	)	$	1,262		-95.1	%

Net revenue. The increase in net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015 is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of the Martha Stewart, Joe’s Jeans and Emeril Lagasse brands which occurred during the third and fourth quarters of 2015 and, to a lesser extent, increased revenues from the balance of our portfolio. Net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 consists primarily of licensing revenue earned from our license agreements relating to the Martha Stewart, Jessica Simpson, AND1, Avia, Joe’s Jeans and Ellen Tracy brands. Net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015 consists of licensing revenue earned primarily from our license agreements related to our Jessica Simpson, Avia, AND1 and Ellen Tracy brands.

Operating expenses. Operating expenses increased approximately $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 to approximately $20.9 million compared to approximately $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The primary drivers for this increase include shareholder and pre-acquisition litigation costs incurred in connection with the Mergers, increased rent expense, payroll expenses and depreciation and amortization. We incurred shareholder and pre-acquisition litigation costs of approximately $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016. Rent costs increased approximately $1.7 million to $1.9 million compared to approximately $0.2 million in the prior year comparable period due to the Company’s new corporate headquarters acquired in the Mergers. Our headcount also increased over the comparable prior year period, resulting in an increase in payroll expense of approximately $3.9 million from approximately $1.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015 to approximately $5.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Interest expense, net. The year-over-year increase in net interest expense of approximately $2.8 million is primarily due to an increase in interest incurred under our loan agreements. Interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2016 includes interest incurred under our loan agreements and interest rate swaps of approximately $9.9 million and non-cash interest related to the amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.4 million. Additionally, we expensed non-cash interest of approximately $0.3 million related to the accretion of the present value of guaranteed contractual payments assumed through certain of the Company’s acquisitions in 2015. Interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2015 includes interest incurred under our loan agreements and interest rate swaps of approximately $5.3 million, non-cash interest related to the amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.4 million and the write-off of approximately $2.1 million of deferred financing costs as a result of an extinguishment of debt in accordance with ASC 470 – Debt in connection with loan agreements entered into for the acquisition of With You LLC.

Income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2016 represents the non-cash deferred tax expense created by the amortization of certain acquired trademarks for tax but not book purposes and taxes for state, local and foreign jurisdictions. The benefit from income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2015 represents the impact of changes to the annual forecasted net income in that period on the calculated interim effective tax rate. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate primarily due to benefits from taxes attributable to noncontrolling interest and changes in valuation allowance.

Noncontrolling interest. The year-over-year increase in noncontrolling interest from continuing operations was primarily driven by our acquisition of the Jessica Simpson brand. Noncontrolling interest from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 represents net income allocations of approximately $1.4 million to With You, Inc., a member of With You LLC (the partnership between us and Jessica Simpson), approximately $0.2 million to Elan Polo International, Inc., a member of DVS LLC, and approximately $0.1 million to JALP, LLC, a member of FUL IP Holdings, LLC. Noncontrolling interest from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 represents net income allocations to With You LLC of approximately $1.7 million and Elan Polo International, Inc. of approximately $0.2 million.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, results of operations information from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements:

	Six Months Ended June 30,						Change			Change
	2016			2015			(Dollars)			(Percentage)
	(in thousands, except percentages)

Net revenue	$	68,162		$	33,852		$	34,310			101.4	%
Operating expenses		42,897			20,601			22,296			108.2	%

Other income		93			700			(607	)		-86.7	%
Interest expense, net		21,289			10,952			10,337			94.4	%
Income before income taxes		4,069			2,999			1,070			35.7	%
Provision for income taxes		1,418			888			530			59.7	%
Net income		2,651			2,111			540			25.6	%
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest		(3,792	)		(1,994	)		(1,798	)		90.2	%
Net (loss) income attributable to Sequential Brands Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries	$	(1,141	)	$	117		$	(1,258	)		-1075.2	%

Net revenue. The increase in net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015 is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of the Martha Stewart, Jessica Simpson, Joe’s Jeans and Emeril Lagasse brands which occurred between the second and fourth quarters of 2015 and, to a lesser extent, increased revenues from the balance of our portfolio. Net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 consists primarily of licensing revenue earned from our license agreements relating to the Martha Stewart, Jessica Simpson, AND1, Avia, Joe’s Jeans and Ellen Tracy brands. Net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consists of licensing revenue earned primarily from our license agreements related to our Jessica Simpson, AND1, Avia and Ellen Tracy brands.

Operating expenses. Operating expenses increased approximately $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 to approximately $42.9 million compared to approximately $20.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary drivers for this increase included restructuring expenses and shareholder and legacy litigation legal expenses incurred in connection with the Mergers, increased rent expense, payroll expenses and depreciation and amortization. We incurred restructuring expenses of approximately $2.8 million primarily related to headcount reductions and lease termination costs during the six months ended June 30, 2016. We also incurred shareholder and legacy litigation legal expenses of approximately $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Rent costs increased approximately $3.6 million to approximately $4.0 million compared to approximately $0.4 million in the prior year comparable period due to the Company’s new corporate headquarters acquired in the Mergers. Our headcount also increased over the comparable prior year period, resulting in an increase in payroll expense of approximately $8.6 million from approximately $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015 to approximately $12.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Other income. Other income during the six months ended June 30, 2015 consists of the Company’s gain on the sale of the People’s Liberation brand.

Interest expense, net. The year-over-year increase in net interest expense of approximately $10.3 million is primarily due to an increase in interest incurred under our loan agreements. Interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2016 includes interest incurred under our loan agreements and interest rate swaps of approximately $19.8 million and non-cash interest related to the amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.9 million. Additionally, we expensed non-cash interest of approximately $0.6 million related to the accretion of the present value of guaranteed contractual payments assumed through certain of the Company’s acquisitions in 2015. Interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2015 includes interest incurred under our loan agreements and interest rate swaps of approximately $8.2 million, non-cash interest related to the amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $0.7 million and the write-off of approximately $2.1 million of deferred financing costs as a result of an extinguishment of debt in accordance with ASC 470 – Debt in connection with loan agreements entered into for the acquisition of With You LLC.

Income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 represents the non-cash deferred tax expense created by the amortization of certain acquired trademarks for tax but not book purposes and taxes for state, local and foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate primarily due to benefits from taxes attributable to noncontrolling interest and changes in valuation allowance.

Noncontrolling interest. The year-over-year increase in noncontrolling interest from continuing operations was primarily driven by our acquisition of the Jessica Simpson brand. Noncontrolling interest from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 represents net income allocations of approximately $3.3 million to With You, Inc., a member of With You LLC (the partnership between us and Jessica Simpson), approximately $0.3 million to Elan Polo International, Inc., a member of DVS LLC, and approximately $0.2 million to JALP, LLC, a member of FUL IP Holdings, LLC. Noncontrolling interest from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 represents net income allocations to With You LLC of approximately $1.7 million and Elan Polo International, Inc. of approximately $0.3 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2016, our continuing operations held cash on hand, including restricted cash, of approximately $37.6 million, had a net working capital balance of approximately $43.9 million and had outstanding debt obligations under our loan agreements (as defined below) of $541.0 million. As of December 31, 2015, our continuing operations held cash on hand of approximately $41.6 million, had a net working capital balance of approximately $49.6 million and had outstanding debt obligations under our loan agreements of $550.0 million. Net working capital is defined as current assets minus current liabilities, excluding restricted cash and discontinued operations. We believe that cash from continuing operations and our currently available cash (including available borrowings under our existing financing arrangements and available-for-sale securities) will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated working capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Overall, we do not expect any negative effects to our funding sources that would have a material effect on our liquidity. We intend to continue financing future brand acquisitions through a combination of cash from operations, bank financing and the issuance of additional equity and/or debt securities. See Notes 7 and 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of certain financing transactions consummated by us. There are no material capital expenditure commitments as of June 30, 2016.

Net (decrease) increase in cash from continuing operations	$	(4,901	)	$	2,950

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased approximately $4.1 million to approximately $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to approximately $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary drivers for this increase was the impact of changes in accounts receivable of approximately $13.3 million partially offset by changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $(7.8) million and, to a lesser extent, changes in prepaid expenses and other assets of approximately $(2.5) million on a year-over-year basis.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations decreased approximately $117.2 million to approximately $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $119.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. This decrease is driven primarily by the acquisition of With You LLC during the six months ended June 30, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we purchased approximately $1.3 million of property and equipment compared to $0.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016 amounted to approximately $14.1 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of approximately $115.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The primary driver for the change was the receipt of approximately $127.7 million of proceeds under a loan agreement used to finance the acquisition of With You LLC and to pay approximately $3.6 million of fees and expenses in connection therewith during the six months ended June 30, 2015. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2016, we made principal payments of approximately $9.0 million under our loan agreements in accordance with contractual terms and approximately $3.7 million of distributions to certain noncontrolling interest partners. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we made principal payments of approximately $7.7 million under our loan agreements in accordance with contractual terms and approximately $0.2 million of distributions to certain noncontrolling interest partners.

Debt

As of June 30, 2016, we were party to a Second Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative and collateral agent and a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wilmington Trust, National Association as administrative agent and collateral agent, referred to as our loan agreements. Refer to Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our borrowings and the terms of these debt facilities. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our long-term debt, including current portion, was $541.0 million and $550.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $4.0 million of availability under the current revolving credit facility and incremental borrowings of up to $60.0 million, to be allocated 25% to the revolving credit facility and 75% to the tranche A term loan facility under the Second Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., and an option to request the addition of one or more additional term loan facilities under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Wilmington Trust, National Association, in each case, subject to certain conditions set forth in our loan agreements. We made $9.0 million of principal repayments under our loan agreements during the six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

As further discussed in Note 14 to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we have entered into new loan agreements in connection with our acquisition of the branded consumer business of GAIAM, Inc.

Future Capital Requirements

We believe cash on hand and cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements for the twelve months following June 30, 2016, as they relate to our current operations and the wind down of discontinued operations. We intend to continue financing future brand acquisitions through a combination of cash from operations, bank financing and the issuance of additional equity and/or debt securities. The extent of our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our results of operations and growth through the acquisition of additional brands, and we cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts and/or on acceptable terms in the near future, if at all.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations by requiring payment under the majority of our licenses to be denominated in U.S. dollars. One of our license agreements is denominated in Canadian dollars. If there were an adverse change in the exchange rate from Canadian to U.S. dollars of 10%, the expected effect on net income would be immaterial.

Our earnings may also be affected by changes in LIBOR interest rates as a result of our loan agreements. As further discussed in Note 3 to our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we have entered into an interest rate swap to mitigate the effects of a change in LIBOR interest rates. An increase in LIBOR interest rates of one percent affecting the loan agreements would not have had a material effect on our results of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2016, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on, and as of the date of such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2016 such that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The post-acquisition integration of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. related activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 represents a material change in our internal control over financial reporting. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of the acquisition on our internal control over financial reporting as well as the necessary controls and procedures to be implemented.

Other than as discussed above, there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Legal Proceedings

Litigation Related to the Mergers

In connection with the Mergers, the following 13 putative stockholder class action lawsuits have were been filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware: (1) David Shaev Profit Sharing Plan f/b/o David Shaev v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on June 25, 2015; (2) Malka Raul v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on June 26, 2015; (3) Daniel Lisman v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on June 29, 2015; (4) Matthew Sciabacucchi v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 2, 2015; (5) Harold Litwin v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 5, 2015; (6) Richard Schiffrin v. Martha Stewart filed on July 7, 2015; (7) Cedric Terrell v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 8, 2015; (8) Dorothy Moore v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 8, 2015; (9) Paul Dranove v. Pierre De Villemejane. et. al. filed on July 8, 2015; (10) Phuc Nguyen v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 10, 2015; (11) Kenneth Steiner v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. et. al. filed on July 16, 2015; (12) Karen Gordon v. Martha Stewart et. al. filed on July 27, 2015; and (13) Anne Seader v. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. et. al. filed on July 28, 2015. All of the 13 class action lawsuits name Old Sequential, MSLO, the MSLO board of directors, Madeline Merger Sub, Inc. , Singer Merger Sub, Inc. and the Company as defendants and allege that (a) members of the MSLO board of directors breached their fiduciary duties and (b) Old Sequential, MSLO, Madeline Merger Sub, Inc., Singer Merger Sub, Inc. and the Company aided and abetted such alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the MSLO board of directors. On August 18, 2015, the Delaware Chancery Court issued an order consolidating these actions for all purposes under the caption In re Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc., et. al. to be the operative complaint in the consolidated action. On January 12, 2016, after the consummation of the Mergers, the plaintiffs filed a Verified Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, naming Ms. Martha Stewart, the Company, Old Sequential, Madeline Merger Sub Inc. and Singer Merger Sub Inc. and alleging that (a) Ms. Stewart breached her fiduciary duties to MSLO’s stockholders and (b) the Company, Old Sequential, Madeline Merger Sub Inc. and Singer Merger Sub Inc. aided and abetted Ms. Stewart’s breach of her fiduciary duties. The plaintiffs seek to recover unspecified damages allegedly sustained by the plaintiffs, restitution and disgorgement by Ms. Stewart, the recovery of plaintiff’s attorney’s fees and other relief. We believe that we have meritorious defenses to the claims made by the plaintiffs, and we are vigorously defending such claims. Litigation costs in this matter may be significant. We do not expect that the ultimate resolution of this matter will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Other Matters

From time to time, we are involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. We record a liability for litigation when we believe that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, we disclose the possible loss. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there being and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters.

With respect to our outstanding legal matters, based on our current knowledge, we believe that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. Further, regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of legal proceedings to which we are party.
