Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]

Nature of Operations, Background and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management of Xcel Brands, Inc., (“Xcel”, the "Company", “we”, “us”, or “our”), all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three months (the “Current Quarter”) and nine months (the “Current Nine Months”) ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

The Company is a brand management company engaged in the design, licensing, marketing and retail sales of consumer brands, including the Isaac Mizrahi Brand, the Judith Ripka Brand (the “Ripka Brand”) and certain rights of the Liz Claiborne New York Brand (“LCNY”). The Company operates in two segments – (1) our Design and Licensing Business and (2) our Retail Business.

Our Design and Licensing Business operates in a “working capital light” business model, wherein we license our brands to third parties, provide certain design services, and generate royalty and design and service fee revenues through licensing and other agreements with wholesale manufacturers, sourcing and design companies and retailers. This includes licensing our own brands for promotion and distribution through an omni-channel retail sales strategy including distribution through direct-response television (i.e. QVC, Inc. (“QVC”) and The Shopping Channel), the internet and traditional brick-and-mortar retail channels. The Isaac Mizrahi Brand and LCNY brand are licensed through our wholly-owned subsidiary IM Brands, LLC (“IM Brands”) (the “Isaac Mizrahi Business”) and the Ripka Brand is licensed through our wholly-owned subsidiary, JR Licensing, LLC (“JR Licensing”).

The Company’s Retail Business operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, IMNY Retail Management, LLC (“Retail Management”). Retail Management launched an e-commerce platform under our Isaac Mizrahi Brand in May 2014. With the Ripka Brand acquisition, we also acquired the rights to the Ripka e-commerce site. We opened our first retail store in June 2013 in Southampton, New York (the “Southampton Store”) and opened our second retail store, an outlet store located near Atlanta, GA (the “Georgia Store”), in March 2014.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

Subsequent events

The Company evaluates subsequent events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued for potential recognition or disclosure. Any material events that occur between the balance sheet date and the date that the financial statements were available for issuance are disclosed as subsequent events, while the financial statements are adjusted to reflect any conditions that existed at the balance sheet date. Based upon this review, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 201-09). ASU 201-09 provides guidance for revenue recognition and affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is the recognition of revenue when a company transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under the current guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (“ASU 2014-12”). ASU 2014-12 affects entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments in ASU 2014-12 require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. ASU 2014-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the method and impact the adoption of ASU 2014-12 will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

- Definition

The entire disclosure of changes in accounting principles, including adoption of new accounting pronouncements, that describes the new methods, amount and effects on financial statement line items.

Acquisition of the Judith Ripka Trademarks

Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Asset Acquisition [Text Block]

Acquisition of the Judith Ripka Trademarks

On April 3, 2014, JR Licensing entered into an asset purchase agreement dated April 1, 2014 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Judith Ripka Berk (“Ms. Ripka”), an individual, and certain companies owned by Ms. Ripka including Judith Ripka Creations (collectively “Ripka”), pursuant to which JR Licensing purchased from Ripka, the Ripka Brand, including the Judith Ripka and Judith Ripka Sterling trademarks and other intellectual property rights. On April 3, 2014, the closing date of the acquisition, the Company paid Ripka $12.0 million in cash, $6.0 million through the issuance of interest free notes payable (the “JR Seller Notes”) (see Note 6) and the issuance of 571,429 shares of the Company’s stock. The Company is also obligated to pay to Ripka $1.0 million (the “First Installment”) and $1.2 million (the “Second Installment”) in cash or shares of the Company’s Common Stock on October 1, 2014 and April 1, 2015, respectively, subject to approval by the Company’s senior lender, Bank of Hapoalim (“BHI”). The First Installment payment date was extended to January 8, 2015. The extension did not result in any penalty or cost to the Company. In addition, the Company agreed to pay Ripka additional contingent consideration of up to $5 million in aggregate, payable in cash or shares of the Company’s Common Stock (see Note 6).

Concurrent with the acquisition of the Ripka Brand, the Company entered into (i) a license agreement with QVC that provides for a royalty to be paid to the Company by QVC based on net sales of products under the Ripka Brand (the “QVC Ripka Agreement”), and (ii) a license with an affiliate of Ripka that will design, source, market, and promote products under the Ripka Brand to wholesale accounts, through an e-commerce site which Xcel will operate, and through Ripka owned retail stores (the “Wholesale Business”). The license with the Wholesale Business provides for a royalty payable to the Company based on its wholesale sale of products under the Ripka Brand. The Company issued to QVC a warrant (the “QVC Warrant”) to purchase a number of shares of our Common Stock equal to (i) 4.75% of the number of shares of common stock of Xcel issued and outstanding on the date the QVC Warrant becomes exercisable less (ii) 571,429 shares of our Common Stock (subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, combination, or stock dividend). The QVC Warrant is exercisable at a price of $.001 per share and becomes exercisable only upon Ms. Ripka becoming obligated to make a specified payment to QVC under the QVC Ripka Agreement and remains exercisable until such obligation is satisfied in full. Management has determined that the probability of the warrants becoming exercisable is highly unlikely and, therefore, no value was assigned to them as of September 30, 2014.

Concurrent with the acquisition of the Ripka Brand, JR Licensing entered into a $9 million, 5-year term loan with BHI and amended the existing IM Term Loan, as more fully described in Note 6.

On April 1, 2014, the Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with Ms. Ripka such that she will serve as the Chief Design Officer of the Judith Ripka brand and perform duties and obligations under agreements with the Company’s licensees or any other third party pursuant to which Ms. Ripka has agreed to, and is obligated to, perform personal services. Thereafter, the agreement will renew automatically for one-year periods, unless either party gives written notice of intent to terminate at least 30 days prior to such termination. Ms. Ripka’s base salary is $750,000 per annum, and Ms. Ripka is entitled to other benefits including (a) non-accountable expenses of $114,000 per year, (b) $1,000 per month for rent for her Florida office, (c) the employment of a personal assistant, and (d) first class travel expenses.

Ms. Ripka is also eligible to receive an annual cash bonus for each calendar year during the term of her employment (or any partial fiscal year during the term), equal to ten percent (10%) of the direct response television royalty income during such calendar year in excess of $6 million.

The Ripka Brand acquisition was accounted for as an asset purchase. The aggregate purchase price was allocated to the following assets based on the fair market value of the assets on the date of acquisition:

Allocated to:
Trademarks	$	24,600,000

IM Seller Note

On September 29, 2011, as part of the consideration for the purchase of the Isaac Mizrahi Business, the Company issued to IM Ready-Made, LLC (“IM Ready”) a promissory note (the “IM Seller Note”) in the principal amount of $7,377,000. The stated interest rate of the IM Seller Note is 0.25%. Management determined that this rate was below the Company’s expected borrowing rate, which was then estimated at 9.25%. Therefore, the Company discounted the IM Seller Note by $1,740,000 using a 9.0% imputed annual interest rate, resulting in an initial value of $5,637,000. Also, on September 29, 2011, the Company prepaid $123,000 of interest on the IM Seller Note. The imputed interest amount is being amortized over the term of the IM Seller Note and recorded as other interest and finance expense on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On December 24, 2013, the IM Seller Note was amended (1) revising the Maturity Date to September 30, 2016 (the “Amended Maturity Date”), (2) revising the Subsequent Maturity Date to September 30, 2018 (the “Amended Subsequent Maturity Date”), (3) providing the Company with a prepayment right with its Common Stock, subject to remitting in cash the required cash payments set forth below and a minimum Common Stock price of $4.50 per share and (4) requiring interim scheduled payments. Scheduled principal payments (including amortization of imputed interest) are as follows:

					Amount
	Amount		Amount		Payable in		Amount
	Payment		Payable in		Cash with		Payable in
Payment Date	Amount		Cash (i)		Restrictions (ii)		Stock (iii)
December 24, 2013	$	1,500,000	$	1,500,000	$	–	$	–
January 31, 2015	$	750,000	$	500,000	$	250,000	$	250,000
January 31, 2016	$	750,000	$	–	$	750,000	$	750,000
September 30, 2016	$	4,377,432	$	–	$	–	$	4,377,432

	(i)	$1,500,000 was paid prior to December 31, 2013.
	(ii)	Amounts payable in cash with restrictions are subject to BHI approving the cash payment. If BHI does not approve the cash payment, the amount shall be payable in shares of Common Stock subject to the provisions described above.
	(iii)	This includes the last payment on the Amended Maturity Date and may include amounts payable in cash with restrictions whereby BHI provides approval and the amount would be paid with the Company’s Common Stock. Amounts payable with the Company’s Common Stock shall be subject to the provisions described above.

The stated interest rate of the IM Seller Note remains at 0.25%. Management has determined that the Company’s expected borrowing rate as of the date of the amendment was 6.44%. Based on the revised payment schedule and the change in the Company’s expected borrowing rate, the Company has increased the IM Seller Note discount by $337,000, and accordingly reduced the carrying value of the IM Seller Note. Management has determined that the amendment to the IM Seller Note was in conjunction with an amendment to the contingent obligation to IM Ready (the “Earn-out Obligation”) and the reduction to the carrying value of the Seller Note was recorded as part of the gain on reduction of contingent obligations in the Company’s December 31, 2013 consolidated statement of operations.

For the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter, the Company incurred interest expense of $86,000 and $159,000, respectively, which includes amortization of the discount on the IM Seller Note of $81,000 and $149,000, respectively. For the Current Nine Months and the Prior Year Nine Months, the Company incurred interest expense of $254,000 and $469,000, respectively, which includes amortization of the discount on the IM Seller Note of $239,000 and $438,000, respectively. The IM Seller Note balance, net of discount, at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $5,284,000 and $5,045,000, respectively.

JR Seller Notes

On April 3, 2014, as part of the consideration for the purchase of the Ripka Brand, JR Licensing issued to Ripka $6.0 million principal amount JR Seller Notes. The JR Seller Notes have a term of five years from the date of issuance, are payable in cash or shares of Xcel Common Stock valued at the time of payment, at the Company’s option, and with a floor price of $7.00 per share if paid in stock, with Ripka having certain rights to extend the maturity of the JR Seller Notes in the event the Company’s stock is trading at a price of less than $7.00 per share.

Management determined that its expected borrowing rate is estimated to be 7.33% and has, therefore, discounted the JR Seller Notes by $1,835,000 using a 7.33% imputed annual interest rate, resulting in an initial value of $4,165,000. The imputed interest amount is being amortized over the term of the JR Seller Notes and recorded as other interest and finance expense on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

For the Current Quarter and the Current Nine Months, the Company incurred interest expense of $78,000 and $153,000, respectively, which consists solely of amortization of the discount on the JR Seller Notes. The JR Seller Notes balance, net of discount, at September 30, 2014 was $4,318,000.

Contingent Obligations

IM Earn-out obligation

IM Ready may earn additional shares of Common Stock with a value of up to $7,500,000 (the “Earn-Out Value”) for the 12-month period ending September 30, 2015, with the number of shares to be issued based upon the greater of (i) $4.50 per share and (ii) the average stock price for the last twenty days in such period, and with such earn-out payment contingent upon the Isaac Mizrahi Business achieving the net royalty income target set forth below (the “Earn-Out Obligation”). On December 24, 2013, the Company and IM Ready amended the terms of the Earn-Out Obligation and eliminated the additional consideration for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014 and the Company made a one-time cash payment of $315,000 to IM Ready in March 2014. The Earn-Out Obligation is recorded as $3.0 million and $3.6 million long-term debt at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and $0.3 million as a current liability at December 31, 2013, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The additional $0.6 million reduction was recorded as a gain on reduction of contingent obligations in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the Current Nine Months. The reduction in the Earn-Out Obligation was based primarily on a revision of projected future net royalty income related to the Isaac Mizrahi Brand within the earn-out period. The recorded earn-out obligation was reduced as a result of the timing of projected future net royalty income of the Isaac Mizrahi Business, therefore diminishing the probability of achieving the remaining royalty target. This adjustment resulted from the Company having better visibility in its 2015 royalties given current Isaac Mizrahi Brand product sales information.

Any future change in the Earn-Out Obligation will result in an expense or income in the period in which it is determined the fair market value of the carrying value has changed. The royalty targets and percentage of the potential earn-out value are as follows:

	ROYALTY		EARN-OUT
ROYALTY TARGET PERIOD	TARGET		VALUE

Royalty Target Period (October 1, 2014 to September 30, 2015)	$	24,000,000	$	7,500,000

IM Ready will receive a percentage of the Earn-Out Value based upon the percentage of the actual net royalty income of the Isaac Mizrahi Business to the royalty target as set forth below.

	% OF
	EARN-OUT
APPLICABLE	VALUE
PERCENTAGE	EARNED
Less than 76%	0	%
76% up to 80%	40	%
80% up to 90%	70	%
90% up to 95%	80	%
95% up to 100%	90	%
100% or greater	100	%

The Earn-Out Value is payable solely in stock. In accordance with ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC Topic 480”), the 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.

IM QVC Earn-Out

The Company is obligated to pay IM Ready $2.8 million, payable in cash or Common Stock, at the Company’s option, contingent upon IM Brands receiving aggregate net royalty income of at least $2.5 million from QVC in the twelve-month period ending September 30, 2015 with such stock based upon the greater of (x) $4.50 per share, and (y) the average stock price for the last twenty days prior to the time of such issuance (the “QVC Earn-Out’). Management has determined that it is probable that the $2.5 million in net royalty income from QVC will be met. In accordance with ASC Topic 480 "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity", the QVC 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. Management will assess no less frequently than each reporting period the status of this contingent obligation. Any change in the expected obligation will result in an expense or income in the period in which it is determined fair market value has changed.

Ripka Earn-Out

In connection with the purchase of the Ripka Brand, the Company agreed to pay Ripka additional consideration of up to $5 million in aggregate (the “Ripka Earn-Out”), payable in cash or shares of the Company’s Common Stock based on the fair market value of our Common Stock at the time of payment, and with a floor of $7.00 per share, based on the Ripka Brand achieving in excess of $1 million of net royalty income during each of the 12-month periods beginning on October 1, 2015 and ending on October 1, 2018, less the sum of all earn out payments for any prior earn-out period. Net royalty income shall not include any revenues generated by direct-response television sales or any revenue accelerated as a result of termination. The Ripka Earn-Out of $3.78 million is recorded as long-term debt at September 30, 2014 on the condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the difference between the fair value of the assets of the Ripka Brand acquired and the total consideration paid.

In accordance with ASC Topic 480, the 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.

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, total contingent obligations were $9.6 million and $6.7 million, respectively.

Stock Options and Warrants

The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.

The fair value for all options was estimated at the dates of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Expected Volatility (i)	24-30	%
Expected Dividend Yield	0	%
Expected Life (Term) (ii)	2 – 3 years
Risk-Free Interest Rate	0.58% - 0.69	%

The options that the Company granted under the Plan expire at various times, either five, seven or ten years from the date of grant, depending on the particular grant.

	(i)	Due to the Company’s limited trading activity, the Company used the average volatility of similar companies in its industry.
	(ii)	Due to the Company’s limited history, the expected life of options was calculated using the ‘simplified method’ in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 14.02 in accordance with SAB 110.

Compensation expense related to stock option grants for the Current Nine Months and the Prior Year Nine Months was $37,000 and $58,000, respectively. Compensation expense related to stock options is reported as stock-based compensation under operating expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. An additional amount of $100,000 is expected to be expensed over a period of 21 months from October 1, 2014 through June 2016.

The preceding table does not include options to purchase 576 shares of Common Stock for $728 per share issued under the Company’s former equity plan. The Company does not expect to issue any equity awards under this plan.

Warrants

A summary of the Company’s warrants for the Current Nine Months is as follows:

			Weighted-Average

Compensation expense related to warrants for the Current Nine Months and the Prior Year Nine Months was $0 and $33,000, respectively. Compensation expense related to warrants in the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months is reported as stock-based compensation under operating expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company values other warrants issued to non-employees at the commitment date at the fair market value of the instruments issued, a measure which is more readily available than the fair market value of services rendered, using the Black-Scholes model. The fair market value of the instruments issued is expensed over the vesting period.

Compensation expense related to warrants in connection with a licensing agreement is amortized over the 5-year initial term of the license agreement and is recorded as a discount to licensing revenues. The stock-based licensing revenue-discount for the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter was $10,000 and $1,000, respectively. The stock-based licensing revenue-discount for the Current Nine Months and the Prior Year Nine Months was $13,000 and $3,000, respectively. The Company fully amortized the remaining value of warrants due to the termination of the related license agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2014.

In October 2013, the Company issued to Adam Dweck (“AD”) who is an Executive Vice President of Earthbound, LLC (“Earthbound”) and the son of Jack Dweck, who is a principal of Earthbound and was on the Company’s board of directors through June 26, 2014 (see Note 11, Related Party Transactions), warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $5.00 per share and a term expiring August 2, 2016. 12,500 of the warrants are subject to AD generating $0.5 million of accumulated royalties and additional Warrants to purchase 12,500 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, subject to AD generating $1.0 million of accumulated royalties. To date, AD has reached the first milestone of $0.5 million sourced royalties and the Company deems it likely that AD will reach the second milestone of $1.0 million of AD sourced royalties by August 2, 2016. Compensation expense related to warrants in connection with the licensing agreement is amortized over the expected period in which the royalty targets will be met and is recorded as a royalty commission expense and netted with licensing revenues. The stock-based commission expense for the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter was $0. The stock-based commission expense for the Current Nine Months and the Prior Year Nine Months was $1,000 and $0, respectively. No additional amount is expected to be amortized after September 30, 2014.

Restricted Stock

Compensation cost for restricted stock is measured using the fair value of the Company’s Common Stock at the date the common stock is granted. The compensation cost, net of projected forfeitures, is recognized over the period between the grant date and the date any restrictions lapse, with compensation cost for grants with a graded vesting schedule recognized using the treasury method. The restrictions do not affect voting and dividend rights.

A summary of the Company’s restricted stock for the Current Nine Months is as follows:

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings 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, and convertible debt, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Shares used in calculating basic and diluted income (loss) per share are as follows:

	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 30,		September 30,
	2014	2013	2014	2013
Basic	12,021,614	10,167,769	11,526,277	8,892,303
Effect of exercise of warrants	897,509	4,241	–	4,644
Effect of exercise of stock options	115,046	581,840	–	581,840
Diluted	13,034,169	10,753,850	11,526,277	9,478,787

The computation of basic and diluted EPS excludes the common stock equivalents of the following potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2014	2013	2014	2013
Stock options and warrants	-	1,126,925	-	949,498

Income Tax

Income Tax

The effective income tax rate for the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter was approximately 166% and (37%), respectively, resulting in an income tax benefit of $0.17 million and $0.85 million, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the Current Nine Months and the Prior Year Nine Months was approximately 55% and (524%), respectively, resulting in a $0.58 million and $1.63 million income tax benefit, respectively. During the Current Nine Months and prior to the Current Quarter, the Company recorded a $0.6 million gain on the reduction of contingent obligations related to the acquisition of the Isaac Mizrahi Brand. This gain is not subject to tax and was treated as a discrete item in the Current Nine Months (See Note 6, Debt). The disproportionate income (loss) before income taxes for the Current Quarter, compared to the Current Nine Months, has a disproportionate effect on the effective income tax rate for the Current Quarter. During the Prior Year Quarter, the Company recorded a $5.1 million gain on the reduction of contingent obligations related to the acquisition of the Isaac Mizrahi business. This gain was not subject to tax and was treated as a discrete item. Additionally, there was an increase in the state income tax rate which was booked to deferred income tax expense and treated as a discrete item occurring in the Prior Year Quarter and Prior Year Nine Months.

Segment Information

Since the Company opened its first retail store in June 2013, it operates in two segments - (1) design and licensing and (2) retail, which are based on its business activities and organization. The operating segments are segments of the Company for which separate discrete financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision makers, made up of the Company’s executive management team, in deciding how to allocate resources, as well as in assessing performance. The primary key performance indicators are net sales or revenue (in the case of licensing and design fees) and operating income for each segment. The design and licensing segment includes royalties earned on licensed products and use of the Company’s trademarks, and rights granted to third parties for the right to sell the Company’s products and related design and other service fees. The retail segment represents sales of the Company’s branded products through its retail stores. All intercompany revenues are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance. Corporate overhead expenses are allocated to the segments based upon specific usage or other allocation methods.

The following table presents the key performance information of the Company’s reportable segments:

Related Party Transactions

Todd Slater

On September 29, 2011, the Company adopted a one-year agreement which was amended on October 4, 2011, with Todd Slater, who was appointed as a director of the Company commencing on October 17, 2011, for services related to the Company’s licensing strategy and introduction of potential licensees. During the term of the agreement or during the year following the expiration of the term of the agreement, if the Company enters into a license or distribution agreement with a licensee introduced by Mr. Slater, Mr. Slater was entitled to receive a commission equal to fifteen percent (15%) of all net royalties received by the Company during the first term of such agreement, payable within thirty days of receipt of the net royalties.

On July 10, 2012, the Company and Mr. Slater entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company paid to Mr. Slater $163,000 as payment in full for (i) the cancellation of all amounts which are or may otherwise become due or payable to Mr. Slater under the terms of the agreement for licensees already introduced to the Company by Mr. Slater and which Mr. Slater was entitled to fifteen percent (15%) of the revenues from such licensees under the agreement, and (ii) the assignment to the Company of all such amounts payable directly to Mr. Slater pursuant to such license agreements. The Company has capitalized this payment and amortizes the expense in accordance with the revenue earned from the respective licensing agreements on which this payment was based.

The Company incurred direct licensing costs with Mr. Slater, who serves as a director for the Company, from amortization of a prepaid licensing commission payment in 2012 for the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter of $21,000 and $12,000, respectively, and for the Current Nine Months and Prior Year Nine Months of $63,000 and $35,000, respectively.

On June 5, 2013, the Company paid Threadstone Advisors, LLC (“Threadstone”) a fee of $280,000 for the placement of $4,000,000 of proceeds from a private stock offering. This placement fee was recorded as a reduction in paid-in capital and reflected in the stockholders’ equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Mr. Slater is an officer and a 5% owner of Threadstone.

Licensing Agent Agreement

On August 2, 2011, the Company entered into a licensing agent agreement with AD, pursuant to which he is entitled to a five percent (5%) commission on any royalties we receive under any new license agreements that he procures for us during the initial term of such license agreements. AD earned $5,000 and $4,000 in fees for the Current Quarter and Prior Year Quarter and earned $17,000 and $14,000 in fees for the Current Nine Months and Prior Year Nine Months, respectively.

We granted to AD warrants to purchase 12,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, subject to AD generating $0.5 million of accumulated royalties and additional warrants to purchase 12,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, subject to AD generating $1.0 million of accumulated royalties. Additionally, AD shall be entitled to receive warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock priced at the fair market value at the time of issuance, subject to AD generating $2.0 million of accumulated royalties. These warrants all expire on August 2, 2016. AD has reached the first milestone of $500,000 sourced royalties and it is likely AD will reach the second milestone of $1,000,000 of AD sourced royalties by August 2, 2016. The Company subsequently issued warrants to AD to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock of which 12,500 vested in 2013 and 12,500 will vest upon achieving the second milestone.

Mark DiSanto

On June 5, 2013 Mark X. DiSanto Investment Trust (the “DiSanto Trust”) purchased 285,715 shares of its Common Stock and Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 62,500 of the Company’s Common Stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,003 through the Offering (See Note 7, Stockholders’ Equity). Mark DiSanto, a director of the Company, is the trustee and has sole voting and dispositive power for the DiSanto Trust.

Share-based Compensation Arrangement by Share-based Payment Award, Options, Grants in Period, Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value [Table Text Block]

The fair value for all options was estimated at the dates of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Expected Volatility (i)	24-30	%
Expected Dividend Yield	0	%
Expected Life (Term) (ii)	2 – 3 years
Risk-Free Interest Rate	0.58% - 0.69	%

The options that the Company granted under the Plan expire at various times, either five, seven or ten years from the date of grant, depending on the particular grant.

	(i)	Due to the Company’s limited trading activity, the Company used the average volatility of similar companies in its industry.
	(ii)	Due to the Company’s limited history, the expected life of options was calculated using the ‘simplified method’ in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 14.02 in accordance with SAB 110.
