7.    Stockholders’ Equity  

Reverse Stock Split

At a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders on March 12, 2025, the stockholders approved a proposal granting the Company’s Board of Directors the discretion to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio in the range of 1-for-2 to 1-for-10, with such ratio to be determined by the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors. Following the special meeting, the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors approved a final split ratio of 1-for-10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

Subsequently, the Company filed with the Delaware Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which became effective at 5:00 p.m. on March 24, 2025, to effect such Reverse Stock Split. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every ten (10) shares (the “Reverse Stock Split Number”) of issued and outstanding Common Stock was automatically combined into one (1) issued and outstanding share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, stockholders who otherwise would have been entitled to receive fractional shares were entitled to receive a cash payment (without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes) in lieu of such fractional shares equal to the fraction of a share of common stock to which such stockholder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by (i) the closing price per share of the common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market at the close of business on the trading day preceding the date of the Certificate of Amendment, multiplied by (ii) the Reverse Stock Split Number. The aggregate number of fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split was 1,120 shares of common stock (or 112 shares on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis); the aggregate cash payments made to stockholders in lieu of fractional shares was less than $1,000. Immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split there were 23,796,200 shares of common stock outstanding; immediately following the Reverse Stock Split there were 2,379,508 shares of common stock outstanding.

The shares of common stock underlying the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants were also proportionately adjusted along with corresponding adjustments to their exercise prices.

All share and per share amounts presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, including but not limited to shares issued and outstanding, earnings/(loss) per share, and warrants and options, as well as the dollar amounts of common stock and paid-in capital, have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented in order to reflect this change in capital structure.

Public Offering and Private Placement Transactions

On March 15, 2024, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (the “Representative”), as the representative of the underwriters, relating to a firm commitment underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of 328,427 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price to the public of $6.50 per share.

The closing of the Offering occurred on March 19, 2024. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the shares, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $1.7 million.

Upon closing of the Offering, the Company issued the Representative certain warrants to purchase up to 18,293 shares of common stock (the “Representative’s Warrants”) as compensation, which amount was offset against the proceeds received. The Representative’s Warrants will be exercisable at a per share exercise price of $8.125. The Representative’s Warrants are exercisable, in whole or in part, during the four and one-half-year period commencing 180 days from the commencement of sales of the shares of common stock in the Offering.

In connection with the Offering, on March 14, 2024, the Company entered into subscription agreements with each of Robert W. D’Loren, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company; an affiliate of Mark DiSanto, a director of the Company; and Seth Burroughs, Executive Vice President of Business Development and Treasury of the Company to purchase 13,258, 13,258, and 2,946 shares, respectively (collectively, the “Private Placement Shares”), at a price of $9.80 per Private Placement Share. The total number of Private Placement Shares purchased was 29,462. Net proceeds after payment of agent fees to the Representative were approximately $0.3 million. The purchase of the Private Placement Shares closed concurrently with the Offering.

The aggregate number of shares of common stock issued from the Offering and the Private Placement was 357,889 shares and the total net proceeds received was approximately $1.9 million.

Equity Incentive Plans

A total of 400,000 shares of common stock are eligible for issuance under the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of any or all of the following types of awards: stock options (incentive or non-qualified), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, or cash awards. The 2021 Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors, or, at the Board’s discretion, a committee of the Board.

In addition, stock-based awards (including options, warrants, and restricted stock) previously granted under the Company’s 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) remain outstanding and shares of common stock may be issued to satisfy options or warrants previously granted under the 2011 Plan, although no new awards may be granted under the 2011 Plan.

Stock-based Compensation

Total expense recognized for all forms of stock-based compensation was approximately $0.16 million and $0.13 million for the current quarter and prior year quarter, respectively. Of the current quarter expense amount, approximately $0.13 million related to employees and approximately $0.03 million related to directors and consultants. Of the prior year quarter expense amount, substantially all of the expense was related to directors and consultants.

In connection with the entrance into the Halston Master License in 2023 (see Note 4), the Company issued to G-III a ten-year warrant to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share, which vests based upon certain annual royalty targets being satisfied under the license agreement. The fair value of this warrant is being recognized as a reduction of revenue over the term of the related license agreement, with an offsetting increase to stockholders’ equity as additional paid-in capital. The amount of contra-revenue recognized related to this warrant during the current quarter and prior year quarter was approximately $0.01 million in each period. As of March 31, 2025, no portion of this warrant had vested.  Excluding the contra-revenue recognized with respect to the Halston Master License warrant, there was no compensation expense related to warrants recognized in any of the periods presented.
