Van Cleef & Arpels In 2006, Van Cleef & Arpels and Interparfums SA signed a 12-year worldwide license agreement to manufacture and distribute perfumes and related products under the Van Cleef & Arpels brand name, which was subsequently extended for a further six years until December 31, 2024. Discussions have been underway since 2023 with a view to renewing the license agreement. The new agreement will strengthen the selective distribution of Van Cleef & Arpels fragrances worldwide. The license is to be renewed for an additional 9-year term, beginning January 1, 2025. Abercrombie & Fitch In 2023, we announced our agreement to distribute Abercrombie & Fitch’s number one men’s fragrance, Fierce, in selected markets. The first phase of the agreement, which became effective on September 1, 2023, covers Fierce distribution in certain major markets, including Europe, Mexico and Australia. The second phase, which activated in February 2024, covers distribution in additional markets in Western Europe and Latin America, and may include other flankers of the Fierce family of products. Roberto Cavalli In July 2023, we closed a transaction agreement with Roberto Cavalli, whereby an exclusive and worldwide license was granted for the production and distribution of Roberto Cavalli brand perfumes and fragrance related products. Our rights under this license are subject to certain minimum advertising expenditures and royalty payments as are customary in our industry. The license became effective in July 2023 and will last for 6.5 years. We began shipping Roberto Cavalli perfumes and fragrance related products in February 2024. Lacoste In December 2022, we closed a transaction agreement with Lacoste, whereby an exclusive and worldwide license was granted for the production and distribution of Lacoste brand perfumes and cosmetics. Our rights under this license are subject to certain minimum advertising expenditures and royalty payments as are customary in our industry. The license became effective in January 2024 and will last for 15 years. We began shipping Lacoste fragrances in January 2024. Dunhill The Dunhill fragrance license expired on September 30, 2023 and was not renewed. The Company had a twelve-month sell-off period during which it maintained the right to sell-off remaining Dunhill fragrance inventory, which is customary in the fragrance industry. As of September 30, 2024, all finished goods and components have been sold and we no longer carry any inventory related to Dunhill. Rochas Fashion As a result of operational challenges faced by the Rochas Fashion business in prior years, we took a $2.4 million impairment charge and a $6.8 million impairment charge on our Rochas Fashion trademark in the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively, resulting in a net book value for the trademark of $11.9 million. In 2023, the Rochas team underwent a strategic shift to take over their own brand operations, exiting contracts with manufacturers and distributors to make this new structure operational beginning in 2024. Management has reviewed and agreed with an independent expert's conclusion that the valuation based on this new business model would not require additional impairments as of December 31, 2023. There have been no triggering events through September 30, 2024 to require additional impairment analysis. Land and Building Acquisition - Headquarters in Paris In April 2021, Interparfums SA, our 72% owned French Subsidiary, completed the acquisition of its headquarters at 10 rue de Solférino in the 7th arrondissement of Paris from the property developer. This is an office complex combining three buildings connected by two inner courtyards, and consists of approximately 40,000 total sq. ft. The purchase price included the complete renovation of the site. As of September 30, 2024, $156 million (€139 million) of the purchase price, including approximately $3 million of acquisition costs, is included in property, equipment and leasehold improvements on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The purchase price has been allocated approximately $64.1 million (€57 million) to land and $91.9 million (€82 million) to the building. The building, which was delivered on February 28, 2022, includes the building structure, development of the property, façade waterproofing, general and technical installations and interior fittings that will be depreciated over a range of 7 to 50 years. The Company has elected to depreciate the building cost based on the useful lives of its components. The acquisition was financed by a 10-year €120 million (approximately $134.4 million) bank loan which bears interest at one-month Euribor plus 0.75%. Approximately €80 million of the variable rate debt was swapped for variable interest rate debt with a maximum rate of 2% per annum. The swap effectively exchanges the variable interest rate to a fixed rate of approximately 1.1%.
