Isaac Mizrahi

On February 24, 2020, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Isaac Mizrahi, a principal stockholder of the Company, for Mr. Mizrahi to continue to serve as Chief Design Officer of the Isaac Mizrahi Brand. This employment agreement remained in effect through May 31, 2022. On May 31, 2022, this agreement was transferred to IM Topco as part of the transaction in which the Company sold a majority interest in the Isaac Mizrahi Brand trademarks to a third party (see Note 2 for details).

The term of the employment agreement with Mr. Mizrahi was to expire on December 31, 2022, subject to earlier termination or extension. Mr. Mizrahi’s annual base salary was $1.8 million, $2.0 million, and $2.1 million per annum during the term of the agreement, subject to adjustment in the event Mr. Mizrahi did not make a specified number of appearances on Qurate’s QVC channel. Mr. Mizrahi was eligible to receive an annual cash bonus (the “Bonus”) up to an amount equal to $2.5 million less base salary for 2020 and $3.0 million less base salary for 2021 and 2022, consisting of the DRT Revenue Bonus, the Brick-and-Mortar Bonus, the Endorsement Bonus, and the Monday Bonus, if any, as determined in accordance with the following:

●

“DRT Revenue Bonus” means for any calendar year an amount equal to 10% of the aggregate net revenue related to sales of Isaac Mizrahi Brand products through direct response television. The DRT Revenue Bonus shall be reduced by the amount of the Monday Bonus.

●

“Brick-and-Mortar Bonus” means for any calendar year an amount equal to 10% of the net revenues from sales of products under the Isaac Mizrahi Brand, excluding DRT revenue and endorsement revenues.

●

“Endorsement Bonus” means for any calendar year an amount equal to 40% of revenues derived from projects undertaken by the Company with one or more third parties solely for Mr. Mizrahi to endorse the third party’s products through the use of Mr. Mizrahi’s name, likeness, and/or image, and neither the Company nor Mr. Mizrahi provides licensing or design.

●

“Monday Bonus” means $10,000 for each appearance by Mr. Mizrahi on the QVC channel on Mondays (subject to certain expectations) up to a maximum of 40 such appearances in a calendar year.

The employment agreement also included severance provisions. In the event Mr. Mizrahi’s employment was terminated by the Company without “cause,” or if Mr. Mizrahi resigned with “good reason,” then Mr. Mizrahi would have been entitled to receive his unpaid base salary and cash bonuses through the termination date and an amount equal to his base salary in effect on the termination date for the longer of six months and the remainder of the then-current term, but in no event exceeding 18 months.

Additionally, during the term of Mr. Mizrahi’s employment by the Company and for a one-year period after the termination of such employment (unless his employment was terminated without “cause” or was terminated by him for “good reason”), Mr. Mizrahi may not permit his name to be used by or to participate in any business or enterprise (other than the mere passive ownership of not more than 3% of the outstanding stock of any class of a publicly held corporation whose stock is traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market) that engages or proposes to engage in the Company’s business anywhere in the world other than the Company and its subsidiaries. Also during his employment and for a one-year period after the termination of such employment, Mr. Mizrahi may not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or any or its subsidiaries; or solicit, induce, or attempt to induce any person who is, or was during the then-most recent 12-month period, a corporate officer, general manager, or other employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, to terminate such employee’s employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or hire any such person unless such person’s employment was terminated by the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, employee, or business relation and the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

On February 24, 2020, the Company also entered into a services agreement with Laugh Club, an entity wholly-owned by Mr. Mizrahi, pursuant to which Laugh Club provided services to Mr. Mizrahi necessary for Mr. Mizrahi to perform his services pursuant to the employment agreement. The Company paid Laugh Club an annual fee of $0.72 million for such services. This services agreement remained in effect through May 31, 2022. On May 31, 2022, this agreement was transferred to IM Topco as part of the transaction in which the Company sold a majority interest in the Isaac Mizrahi Brand trademarks to a third party (see Note 2 for details).

In addition, on May 31, 2022, all 522,500 unvested shares of restricted stock of the Company held by Mr. Mizrahi (for which all stock-based compensation expense had been previously recognized in prior periods) were immediately vested, with 240,000 of such shares being surrendered for cancellation in satisfaction of withholding tax obligations. Also on May 31, 2022, the Company issued 33,557 additional shares of common stock of the Company (valued at $50,000) to Mr. Mizrahi, which vested immediately, and made a $100,000 cash payment to Mr. Mizrahi.

Sale of Majority Interest in Isaac Mizrahi Brand

On May 27, 2022, Xcel (along with IM Topco, LLC (“IM Topco”) and IM Brands, LLC (“IMB”), both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company) and IM WHP, LLC (“WHP”), a subsidiary of WHP Global, a private equity-backed brand management and licensing company, entered into a membership purchase agreement. Pursuant to this agreement, on May 31, 2022, (i) the Company contributed assets owned by IMB, including the Isaac Mizrahi Brand trademarks and other intellectual property rights relating thereto into IM Topco, and (ii) the Company sold 70% of the membership interests of IM Topco to WHP.

The purchase price paid by WHP to the Company at the closing of the transaction in exchange for the 70% membership interest in IM Topco consisted of $46.2 million in cash. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, the Company will also be entitled to receive an “earn-out” payment in the amount of $2.0 million if, during the period from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, (i) IM Topco receives Net Royalty Revenue (as defined in the purchase agreement) in an amount equal to or greater than $17.5 million and (ii) IM Topco generates EBITDA (as defined in the purchase agreement) in an amount equal to or greater than $11.8 million. Additionally, in the event that IM Topco receives less than $13.347 million in aggregate royalties for any four consecutive calendar quarters over a three-year period ending on the third anniversary of the closing, WHP will be entitled to receive from the Company up to $16 million, less all amounts of net cash flow distributed to WHP for such period, as an adjustment to the purchase price, payable in either cash or equity interests in IM Topco held by the Company.

In connection with the aforementioned purchase agreement, on May 31, 2022, the Company and WHP entered into an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of IM Topco (the “Business Venture Agreement”) governing the operation of IM Topco as a partnership between the Company and WHP following the closing. Pursuant to the Business Venture Agreement, IM Topco is managed by a single Manager appointed by the vote of a majority-in-interest of IM Topco’s members, and WHP serves as the sole Manager of IM Topco. The Business Venture Agreement contains customary provisions for the governance of a partnership, including with respect to decision making, access to information, restrictions on transfer of interests, and covenants. Pursuant to the Business Venture Agreement, IM Topco’s Net Cash Flow (as defined in the agreement) shall be distributed to the members during each fiscal year no less than once per fiscal quarter, as follows:

(i)

first, 100% to WHP, until WHP has received an aggregate amount during such fiscal year equal to $8,852,000;

(ii)

second, 100% to Xcel, until Xcel has received an aggregate amount during such fiscal year equal to $1,316,200; and

(iii)

thereafter, in proportion to the members’ respective percentage interests.

The amounts described in (i) and (ii) above are subject to adjustment in certain circumstances as set forth in the Business Venture Agreement.

The Company also entered into a number of other related agreements on May 31, 2022 in connection with the transaction, as described below:

●

The Company entered into a services agreement with IM Topco, pursuant to which the Company will provide certain design and support services (including assistance with the operations of the interactive television business and related talent support) to IM Topco in exchange for payments of $0.3 million per fiscal year.

●

The Company entered into a license agreement with IM Topco, pursuant to which IM Topco granted the Company a license to use certain Isaac Mizrahi trademarks on and in connection with the design, manufacture, distribution, sale, and promotion of women’s sportswear products in the United States and Canada during the term of the agreement, in exchange for the payment of royalties in connection therewith. The initial term of this agreement ends December 31, 2026, and provides guaranteed royalties of $0.4 million per year to IM Topco.

●

The Company’s licensing agreement with Qurate Retail Group related to the Isaac Mizrahi Brand (see Note 4) was assigned to IM Topco as of May 31, 2022.

●

The Company’s employment agreement with Mr. Mizrahi and the Company’s services agreement with Laugh Club (see Note 10) were transferred to IM Topco. In addition, all 522,500 unvested shares of restricted stock of the Company held by Mr. Mizrahi (for which all stock-based compensation expense had been previously recognized in prior periods) were immediately vested, with 240,000 of such shares being surrendered for cancellation in satisfaction of withholding tax obligations. In addition, the Company issued 33,557 additional shares of common stock of the Company (valued at $50,000) to Mr. Mizrahi, which vested immediately, and made a $100,000 cash payment to Mr. Mizrahi.

Management assessed and evaluated the ownership structure and other terms of the May 27, 2022 membership purchase agreement and Business Venture Agreement, as well as considered the Company’s continuing involvement with the Isaac Mizrahi Brand through the aforementioned services agreement and licensing agreement, and concluded that (i) IM Topco is not a Variable Interest Entity under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, and (ii) the Company has significant influence over, but does not control, IM Topco. As such, on May 31, 2022, the Company de-recognized the carrying amount of the Isaac Mizrahi Brand trademarks of $44.5 million and recognized the fair value of its retained interest in IM Topco of approximately $19.8 million as an equity method investment on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of the of the Company’s retained interest was determined by applying the Company’s ownership percentage to the implied enterprise value of IM Topco, which was calculated based on the price paid by WHP for the 70% controlling interest, as the May 31, 2022 sale transaction was considered an arms-length transaction between knowledgeable market participants and the most relevant and reasonable indication of value to utilize. The inputs and assumptions for this nonrecurring fair value measurement are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy defined in ASC Topic 810.

The Company incurred approximately $0.9 million of expenses directly related to this transaction, including legal fees and agent fees, of which $0.1 million of the agent fees were paid through the issuance of 65,275 shares of the Company’s common stock, which were recognized as a reduction to the gain from the transaction. The Company recognized a net pre-tax gain from the transaction of $20.6 million, which is classified as other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

The Company accounts for its interest in the ongoing operations of IM Topco as other income under the equity method of accounting. The Company did not recognize any equity income related to its investment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, due to the aforementioned distribution provisions set forth in the Business Venture Agreement.

In addition to the amounts described above, the Company’s Board of Directors awarded cash bonuses totaling approximately $1.0 million to certain members of the Company’s senior management, consisting of bonuses of $770,000 to Robert D’Loren, $115,000 to Jim Haran, and $130,000 to Seth Burroughs. These bonuses are included in Salaries, benefits and employment taxes in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Acquisition of LOGO by Lori Goldstein Brand

On April 1, 2021, the Company acquired certain assets of Lori Goldstein, Ltd. (the "Seller"), including the “LOGO by Lori Goldstein” trademark and other intellectual property rights relating thereto. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement related to this transaction, the Company delivered $1.6 million in cash consideration to the Seller at closing, and was obligated to subsequently deliver an additional $2.0 million in cash to the Seller, which was paid in July 2021.

In addition to the consideration described above, the Seller is eligible to earn additional consideration of up to $12.5 million (the “Lori Goldstein Earn-Out”), which would be payable, in cash, within 45 days after the end of each applicable calendar year during the six calendar year period commencing 2021 in an amount equal to 75% percent of the Royalty Contribution (as defined in the related asset purchase agreement) for such calendar year. The Company recorded a contingent obligation of $6.6 million related to the Lori Goldstein Earn-Out, based on the difference between the fair value of the acquired assets of the LOGO by Lori Goldstein brand and the total consideration paid, in accordance with the guidance in ASC Subtopic 805-50. To date, no consideration under the terms of the Lori Goldstein Earn-Out has been payable or paid to the Seller.

The LOGO by Lori Goldstein brand acquisition was accounted for as an asset purchase, and the aggregate purchase price of $10.3 million was allocated entirely to the trademarks of the brand. Such trademarks have been determined by management to have a finite useful life, and accordingly, amortization is recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Lori Goldstein trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected useful life of four years.

Nature of Operations, Background, and Basis of Presentation

1. Nature of Operations, Background, and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 (which has been derived from audited financial statements) and the unaudited interim 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 Article 8 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared following the same policies and procedures used in the preparation of the audited consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of Xcel Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or "Xcel"). The results of operations for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year or for any future interim periods. These 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, 2021, as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2022.

The Company is a media and consumer products company engaged in the design, production, marketing, live streaming, wholesale distribution, and direct-to-consumer sales of branded apparel, footwear, accessories, fine jewelry, home goods and other consumer products, and the acquisition of dynamic consumer lifestyle brands.

Currently, the Company’s brand portfolio consists of the LOGO by Lori Goldstein brand (the “Lori Goldstein Brand”), the Halston brands (the "Halston Brand"), the Judith Ripka brands (the "Ripka Brand"), the C Wonder brands (the "C Wonder Brand"), the Longaberger brand (the “Longaberger Brand”), the Isaac Mizrahi brands (the "Isaac Mizrahi Brand"), and other proprietary brands.

●

The Lori Goldstein Brand, Halston Brand, Ripka Brand, and C Wonder Brand are wholly owned by the Company.

●

The Company manages the Longaberger Brand through its 50% ownership interest in Longaberger Licensing, LLC; the Company consolidates Longaberger Licensing, LLC and recognizes noncontrolling interest for the remaining ownership interest held by a third party.

●

The Company wholly owned and managed the Isaac Mizrahi Brand through May 31, 2022. On May 31, 2022, the Company sold to a third party a majority interest in a newly-created subsidiary that was formed to hold the Isaac Mizrahi Brand trademarks, but retained a noncontrolling interest in the brand through a 30% ownership interest in IM Topco, LLC and continues to participate in the operations of the business; the Company accounts for its interest in IM Topco, LLC using the equity method of accounting. See Note 2 for additional details.

The Company designs, produces, markets, and distributes products, licenses its brands to third parties, and generates licensing revenues through contractual arrangements with manufacturers and retailers. The Company and its licensees distribute through an omni-channel retail sales strategy, which includes distribution through interactive television, digital live-stream shopping, brick-and-mortar retail, wholesale, and e-commerce channels to be everywhere its customers shop.

The Company’s wholesale and direct-to-consumer operations are presented as "Net sales" and "Cost of goods sold" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, separately from the Company’s licensing revenues.

Liquidity

The Company had net income of approximately $9.5 million and $6.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $22.8 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company had working capital (current assets less current liabilities, excluding the current portion of lease obligations and any contingent obligations payable in common stock) of approximately $16.9 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents were approximately $10.9 million as of June 30, 2022. In conjunction with the sale of the majority interest in the Isaac Mizrahi Brand (as described in Note 2), the Company used a portion of the proceeds to extinguish all of its term loan debt, which had a balance of approximately $28.4 million. Management expects that existing cash and operating cash flows will be adequate to meet the Company’s operating and capital expenditure needs for at least the twelve months subsequent to the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

6. Leases

The Company has an operating lease for its corporate offices and operations facility, as well as certain equipment with a term of 12 months or less.

The Company also has an operating lease for its former retail store location, which was closed in the first quarter of 2022; the Company is currently in the process of negotiating the termination of this lease.

The Company previously had an operating lease for its former office location, which it subleased to a third-party subtenant through February 27, 2022, and the Company’s lease of this office space expired by its terms on February 28, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s real estate leases have remaining lease terms of 5 – 7 years, with a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 5.4 years and a weighted average discount rate of 6.25%.

The Company generally recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset, representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term, and a liability for its obligation to make future lease payments (the lease liability) at commencement date (the date on which the lessor makes the underlying asset available for use) based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company does not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for lease terms of 12 months or less, but recognizes such lease payments in operations on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

Lease expense for operating lease payments is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company recognizes income from subleases (in which the Company is the sublessor) on a straight-line basis over the term of the sublease, as a reduction to lease expense. Lease expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations was approximately $0.4 million for both the current quarter and prior year quarter, and was approximately $0.7 million for the current six months and prior year six months.

Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $0.4 million in the current quarter, $0.7 million in the prior year quarter, $1.0 million in the current six months, and $1.3 million in the prior year six months.

As of June 30, 2022, the maturities of lease obligations were as follows:

Qurate Agreements

Under the Company’s agreements with Qurate Retail Group (“Qurate”), collectively referred to as the Qurate Agreements, Qurate is obligated to make payments to the Company on a quarterly basis, based primarily upon a percentage of net retail sales of Lori Goldstein, Judith Ripka, and Longaberger branded merchandise. The Company was also previously a party to a similar agreement with Qurate related to the Isaac Mizrahi Brand through May 31, 2022; see Note 2 for details. Net retail sales are defined as the aggregate amount of all revenue generated through the sale of the specified branded products by Qurate and its subsidiaries under the Qurate Agreements, net of customer returns, and excluding freight, shipping and handling charges, and sales, use, or other taxes. Net licensing revenue from the Qurate Agreements represents a significant portion of the Company’s total net revenue.

●

Net licensing revenue from the Qurate Agreements totaled $4.05 million and $5.45 million for the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively, representing approximately 48% and 51% of the Company’s total net revenue for the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively.

●

Net licensing revenue from the Qurate Agreements totaled $9.06 million and $9.19 million for the current six months and prior year six months, respectively, representing approximately 53% and 50% of the Company’s total net revenue for the current six months and prior year six months, respectively.

●

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had receivables from Qurate of $4.15 million and $3.51 million, respectively, representing approximately 45% and 46% of the Company’s total net accounts receivable, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingent Obligation – Halston Heritage Earn-Out

In connection with the February 11, 2019 purchase of the Halston Heritage trademarks from H Company IP, LLC (“HIP”), the Company agreed to pay HIP additional consideration (the “Halston Heritage Earn-Out”) of up to an aggregate of $6.0 million, based on royalties earned through December 31, 2022. The Halston Heritage Earn-Out of $0.9 million is recorded as a current liability at June 30, 2022 and as a long-term liability at December 31, 2021 in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, based on the difference between the fair value of the acquired assets of the Halston Heritage trademarks and the total consideration paid. Management estimates that it is highly unlikely the Company will owe any of this contingent obligation at December 31, 2022. In accordance with ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” the Halston Heritage Earn-Out obligation is treated as a liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets because of the variable number of shares payable under the agreement.

Contingent Obligation – Lori Goldstein Earn-Out

In connection with the April 1, 2021 acquisition of the Lori Goldstein trademarks, the Company agreed to pay the seller additional cash consideration (the “Lori Goldstein Earn-Out”) of up to an aggregate of $12.5 million, based on royalties earned during the six calendar year period commencing in 2021. The Lori Goldstein Earn-Out of $6.6 million is recorded as a liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, based on the difference between the fair value of the acquired assets of the Lori Goldstein brand and the total consideration paid, in accordance with the guidance in ASC Subtopic 805-50. At June 30, 2022, $1.9 million of the balance is recorded as a current liability and $4.7 million is recorded as a long-term liability; at December 31, 2021, the entire balance was recorded as a long-term liability.

Contingent Obligation – Isaac Mizrahi Transaction

In connection with the May 31, 2022 transaction related to the sale of a majority interest in the Isaac Mizrahi Brand (see Note 2), the Company has agreed with WHP that, in the event that IM Topco receives less than $13.3 million in aggregate royalties for any four consecutive calendar quarters over a three-year period ending on May 31, 2025, WHP will be entitled to receive from the Company up to $16 million, less all amounts of net cash flow distributed to WHP for such period, as an adjustment to the purchase price previously paid by WHP. Such amount would be payable by the Company in either cash or equity interests in IM Topco held by the Company. No amount has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets related to this contingent obligation, and management believes the likelihood of any such payment is remote.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company becomes involved in legal claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, based on consultations with legal counsel, the disposition of litigation currently pending against the Company is unlikely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company routinely assesses all its litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability, and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable.

Coronavirus Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, which continues to circulate throughout the U.S. and the world. COVID-19 (including actions taken by national, state, and local governments in response to COVID-19) has had an unprecedented impact on the U.S. and global economy.

The impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic are broad reaching and have had an impact on the Company’s licensing and wholesale businesses. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the Company’s supply chain as most of the Company’s products are manufactured in China, Thailand, and other places around the world affected by this event. Temporary factory closures and the pace of workers returning to work have impacted contract manufacturers’ ability to source certain raw materials and to produce finished goods in a timely manner. The pandemic has also impacted distribution and logistics providers' ability to operate in the normal course of business. Further, the initial onset of the pandemic in 2020 resulted in a sudden decrease in sales for many of the Company’s products, from which the Company has yet to fully recover. The initial onset of the pandemic resulted in order cancellations and a decrease in accounts receivable collections, and the Company recorded additional allowances for doubtful accounts of approximately $1 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively, related to retailers that filed for bankruptcy.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there is significant uncertainty surrounding the impact on the Company’s future results of operations and cash flows. Continued impacts of the pandemic could materially adversely affect the Company’s near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity, and cash flows as the Company’s customers and/or licensees may request temporary relief, delay, or not make scheduled payments.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Tax

10. Income Taxes

The estimated annual effective income tax rate for the current quarter and the prior year quarter was approximately 25% and 43%, respectively, resulting in an income tax provision (benefit) of $3.18 million and $(1.35) million, respectively.

The estimated annual effective income tax rate for the current six months and the prior year six months was approximately 35% and 25%, respectively, resulting in an income tax provision (benefit) of $3.18 million and $(1.48) million, respectively.

For the current quarter, the federal statutory rate differed from the effective tax rate primarily due to recurring permanent differences, state taxes, and the discrete treatment of stock compensation shortfall, which increased the effective tax rate by approximately 10%, partially offset by the reversal of a valuation allowance that was previously recorded in the first quarter of 2022, which decreased the effective tax rate by approximately 6%.

For the prior year quarter, the federal statutory rate differed from the effective tax rate primarily due to recurring permanent differences and state taxes, which increased the effective tax rate by approximately 15% and 7%, respectively.

For the current six months, the federal statutory rate differed from the effective tax rate primarily due to recurring permanent differences, state taxes, and the discrete treatment of stock compensation shortfall, which increased the effective tax rate by approximately 14%.

For the prior year six months, the federal statutory rate differed from the effective tax rate primarily due to state taxes, which increased the effective tax rate by approximately 7%, partially offset by the impact of recurring permanent differences, which decreased the effective tax rate by approximately 3%.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Debt

7. Debt

The Company’s net carrying amount of debt was comprised of the following:


	June 30,		December 31,
($ in thousands)	2022		2021
Term loan debt	$	—	$	29,000
Unamortized deferred finance costs related to term loan debt		—		(969)
Total		—		28,031
Current portion of debt		—		2,500
Long-term debt	$	—	$	25,531

On May 31, 2022, the Company used $30.1 million of the proceeds received from the transaction related to the Isaac Mizrahi Brand (see Note 2) to repay all amounts outstanding under the December 30, 2021 term loan agreement with First Eagle Alternative Credit Agent, LLC (“FEAC”), consisting of $28.4 million in principal amount, a $1.4 million prepayment fee, and approximately $0.3 million in interest and related expenses. As a result, the Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $2.3 million during the current quarter and current six months, consisting of approximately $1.4 million of debt prepayment premium, the immediate write-off of approximately $0.8 million of unamortized deferred finance costs, and approximately $0.1 million of other costs.

Term Loan Debt (through May 31, 2022)

On December 30, 2021, Xcel, as Borrower, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, IM Brands, LLC, JR Licensing, LLC, H Licensing, LLC, C Wonder Licensing, LLC, Xcel Design Group, LLC, Judith Ripka Fine Jewelry, LLC, H Heritage Licensing, LLC, Xcel-CT MFG, LLC and Gold Licensing, LLC, as Guarantors (each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with FEAC, as lead arranger and as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders party to the Loan Agreement, and the financial institutions party thereto as lenders (the “Lenders”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lenders made a term loan in the aggregate amount of $29.0 million (the “Term Loan”). The proceeds of the Term Loan were used for the purpose of refinancing existing

indebtedness (i.e., previous term loan debt), to pay fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with entering into the Loan Agreement, and for working capital purposes.

Upon entering into the Loan Agreement, Xcel paid a 1.75% closing fee to FEAC for the benefit of the Lenders; the Company also paid approximately $0.5 million of various legal and other fees in connection with the execution of the Loan Agreement. These fees and costs totaling approximately $0.97 million were deferred on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 as a reduction of the carrying value of the Term Loan, and commencing in 2022 were being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Term Loan using the effective interest method.

The New Term Loan was to mature on April 14, 2025. Principal on the New Term Loan was payable in quarterly installments of $625,000 on each of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on March 31, 2022 and ending on March 31, 2025, with a final payment of $20,875,000 due on the maturity date of April 14, 2025.

Under the Loan Agreement, Xcel had the right upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to prepay all or any portion of the Term Loan and accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Based on the terms of the Loan Agreement, when the Term Loan was repaid in full on May 31, 2022, Xcel was required to pay a prepayment premium of five percent (5.00%), which amounted to approximately $1.4 million.

For the current quarter and prior year quarter, the Company incurred interest expense (including both interest paid in cash and the amortization of deferred finance costs) related to term loan debt of approximately $0.48 million and $0.52 million, respectively. The effective interest rate related to term loan debt was approximately 9.8% and 9.0% for the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively.

For the current six months and prior year six months, the Company incurred interest expense (including both interest paid in cash and the amortization of deferred finance costs) related to term loan debt of approximately $1.19 million and $0.80 million, respectively. The effective interest rate related to term loan debt was approximately 9.8% and 7.8% for the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively.

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) is designed and utilized to enable the Company to provide its employees, officers, directors, consultants, and others whose past, present, and/or potential contributions to the Company have been, are, or will be important to the success of the Company, an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. A total of 4,000,000 shares of common stock are eligible for issuance under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of any or all of the following types of awards: stock options (incentive or non-qualified), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, or cash awards. The 2021 Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors, or, at the Board’s discretion, a committee of the Board.

In addition, stock-based awards (including options, warrants, and restricted stock) previously granted under the Company’s 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) remain outstanding and shares of common stock may be issued to satisfy options or warrants previously granted under the 2011 Plan, although no new awards may be granted under the 2011 Plan.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” by recognizing the fair value of stock-based compensation as an operating expense over the service period of the award or term of the corresponding contract, as applicable. Forfeitures are accounted for as a reduction of compensation cost in the period when such forfeitures occur. For stock option awards for which vesting is contingent upon the achievement of certain performance targets, the timing and amount of compensation expense recognized is based upon the Company’s projections and estimates of the relevant performance metric(s) until the time the performance obligation is satisfied. Expense for such awards is recognized only to the extent that the achievement of the specified performance target(s) has been met or is considered probable.

Total expense recognized in the current quarter and prior year quarter for all forms of stock-based compensation was approximately $0.58 million and $0.43 million, respectively. Of the current quarter expense amount, approximately $0.39 million related to employees and approximately $0.19 million related to directors and consultants. Approximately $0.48 million of the current quarter expense was recorded as operating costs, and approximately $0.10 million was recorded as a reduction to other income. Of the prior year quarter expense amount, all of which was recorded as operating costs in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations, approximately $0.38 million related to employees and approximately $0.05 million related to directors and consultants.

Total expense recognized in the current six months and prior year six months for all forms of stock-based compensation was approximately $0.61 million and $0.59 million, respectively. Of the current six months expense amount, approximately $0.40 million related to employees and approximately $0.21 million related to directors and consultants. Approximately $0.51 million of the current six months expense was recorded as operating costs, and approximately $0.10 million was recorded as a reduction to other income. Of the prior year six months expense amount, approximately $0.52 million related to employees and approximately $0.07 million related to directors and consultants.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

9. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period, including stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022:

As a result of the net loss for the prior year quarter and prior year six months, the Company calculated diluted EPS using basic weighted average shares outstanding for such periods, as utilizing diluted shares would be anti-dilutive to loss per share.

The computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share excludes the following potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:
