5.     Intangible Assets:

In June 2022, Winmark terminated an agreement that contained the rights for eleven Play It Again Sports stores to operate separately from Winmark’s franchise system. In terminating the agreement, which included $3.54 million of consideration paid by Winmark, Winmark reacquired the franchise rights to these eleven stores. Upon termination of the agreement, individual franchise agreements were signed for these eleven stores, each with an initial term of ten years.

Intangible assets consist of these reacquired franchise rights. The Company amortizes the fair value of the reacquired franchise rights over the contract term of the franchise. The Company recognized $191,700 of amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2022.
