We may be involved from time to time, as a plaintiff or a defendant, in various routine legal proceedings incidental to the ordinary course of our business. In the ordinary course, we are involved in the policing of our intellectual property rights. As part of our policing program, from time to time we file lawsuits in the United States and abroad, alleging acts of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, trademark dilution, and ancillary and pendent state and foreign law claims. These actions often result in seizure of counterfeit merchandise and negotiated settlements with defendants. Defendants sometimes raise as affirmative defenses, or as counterclaims, the purported invalidity or unenforceability of our proprietary rights.
In June of 2025, the Company received a notice from the buyer of Creative Genius requesting a purchase price adjustment of approximately $4.6 million related to the sale of Creative Genius. The demand was based on certain working capital adjustments. The Company has disputed this purchase price adjustment request. On August 27, 2025, the Company filed an action in the Chancery Court of Delaware seeking a judgment declaring that the buyer’s claim for a purchase price adjustment is improper and barred by the purchase Agreement. The Company has filed for summary judgment in that action. At this time, we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of loss that may result from this matter or to determine whether such loss, if any, would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations due to the fact that the Company believes the purchase price adjustment is improper, and is seeking to have it declared as such by a Delaware Court. The Company believes that it has a number of meritorious legal approaches in defending itself against these claims.
The Company is also subject to other legal proceedings from time to time in the ordinary course of business but does not believe any of these such claims would have a material adverse impact on the Company at this time.
