Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Acqusitions | Almost Famous On October 20, 2023, Daniel M. Friedman & Associates, Inc. (“Buyer”), a New York corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities (the “Business”) of Turn On Products Inc. d/b/a Almost Famous (“Seller” or “Almost Famous”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, by and among Buyer, the Company, Seller, and the holders of capital stock of Seller. Almost Famous is a designer and marketer of women’s junior apparel. Almost Famous distributes its products to wholesale customers, including mass merchants, department stores, off-price retailers, and chain stores within the United States. Almost Famous markets products under its own brands, primarily Almost Famous, as well as private label brands for various retailers. This Business was acquired for cash consideration of $73,228 and a future payment contingent on the Almost Famous business achieving certain earnings before interest and tax ("EBIT") targets. In connection therewith, we recorded an initial short-term liability of $3,325 and a long-term liability of $9,975 as of the date of acquisition to reflect the estimated fair value of the contingent purchase price. The fair value of the contingent payments liability was estimated on the date of acquisition using the risk neutral simulation method, which included significant unobservable Level 3 inputs, such as projected EBIT over the earn-out period and a discount rate of 20.3%. Changes in these significant unobservable inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The maximum consideration which can be paid over the consideration period of four years is $68,000 and there are no minimum payments required. The liability will be remeasured at each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. After the effect of closing adjustments, the total purchase price of the acquisition was $86,528. The results of the Business have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition within the Wholesale Accessories/Apparel segment. The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the October 20, 2023 acquisition date:

(1) Consists of a Trademark of $9,050 and customer relationships of $23,900, both of which are amortized over 20 years. The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with FASB Topic ASC 805 ("Business Combinations"), which requires that the total cost of an acquisition be allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company recorded goodwill for the acquisition based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired, which consists largely of the synergies expected from the acquisitions. For tax purposes, goodwill will be amortized over a 15 year period. Preliminary estimates of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to revision, which may result in adjustments to the preliminary values recorded during the measurement period (a period not to exceed 12 months from acquisition date). The fair value of the trademark was estimated using the relief-from-royalty method, which presumes the owner of the asset avoids hypothetical royalty payments that would need to be made for the use of the asset if the asset was not owned. Key assumptions and estimates used are forecasted revenue, a royalty rate of 3.0%, and a discount rate of 21.8%. Such assumptions included significant unobservable inputs and changes in these significant unobservable inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The useful life of the trademark was estimated to be 20 years and amortization for the trademark has been recorded in operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of the customer relationships was estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method. The excess earnings methodology is an income approach methodology that estimates the projected cash flows of the business attributable to the customer relationships, net of charges for the use of other identifiable assets of the business including working capital, fixed assets, and other intangible assets. Key assumptions and estimates used in deriving the projected cash flows are forecasted revenue, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") margin of 8.8%, customer attrition rate of 5.0%, and discount rates in the range of 21.0% to 23.5%. Such assumptions include significant unobservable inputs and such changes in these significant unobservable inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The useful life of the customer relationships was estimated to be 20 years and amortization for these intangible assets has been recorded in operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Transaction costs of $1,505 for the year ended December 31, 2023 have been recorded within operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Hosiery Business On March 1, 2024 Daniel M. Friedman & Associates, Inc. acquired the Steve Madden and Betsey Johnson hosiery division ("hosiery business") of Gina Group LLC (“Gina”). Gina has been the exclusive licensee of the hosiery category for Steve Madden and Betsey Johnson brands and such license agreements were terminated in conjunction with the acquisition. The assets of the hosiery business were acquired for a cash consideration of $4,259 and the assets acquired included inventories of $2,168, reacquired rights of $1,450, and goodwill of $641. The results of the business have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition within the Wholesale Accessories/Apparel segment.
