Commitments and Contingencies	11. Commitments and Contingencies Contingent Obligation – Isaac Mizrahi Transaction In connection with the May 31, 2022 transaction related to the sale of a majority interest in the Isaac Mizrahi Brand, the Company agreed with WHP that, in the event that IM Topco receives less than $13.3 million in aggregate royalties for any four consecutive calendar quarters over a three-year period ending on May 31, 2025, WHP would be entitled to receive from Xcel up to $16 million, less all amounts of net cash flow distributed to WHP on an accumulated basis, as an adjustment to the purchase price previously paid by WHP. Such amount would be payable by the Company in either cash or equity interests in IM Topco held by the Company. In November 2023, this agreement was amended such that the purchase price adjustment provision was waived until the measurement period ending March 31, 2024. On April 12, 2024, this agreement was further amended such that the purchase price adjustment provision within the membership purchase agreement was waived until the measurement period ending September 30, 2025. This amendment also provided that if IM Topco royalties are less than $13.5 million for the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2025 or less than $18.0 million for the year ending December 31, 2025, Xcel shall transfer equity interests in IM Topco to WHP equal to 12.5% of the total outstanding equity interests of IM Topco, such that Xcel’s ownership interest in IM Topco would decrease from 30% to 17.5%, and WHP’s ownership interest in IM Topco would increase from 70% to 82.5%. During 2024, management concluded that, based on current trends in and projections of IM Topco’s royalty revenues as well as the Company’s decision to not make the remaining royalty payments to IM Topco, it was virtually certain that the Company would be required to make such transfer of equity interests to WHP in 2025. As such, the Company estimated and recorded a contingent obligation of approximately $4.21 million in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, in accordance with the terms of the amended membership purchase agreement between Xcel and WHP, WHP became contractually entitled to receive from Xcel equity interests in IM Topco equal to 12.5% of the total outstanding equity interests of IM Topco. Also during the current quarter, the Company adjusted the carrying value of the contingent obligation to its estimated fair value of $3.97 million as of March 31, 2025 in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and recognized a $(0.24) million credit in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. On and effective April 15, 2025, such equity interests were transferred to WHP in full satisfaction of this contractual obligation (see Note 12 for additional details). Legal Matters From time to time, the Company becomes involved in legal claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. The Company routinely assesses all its litigation and threatened litigation as to the probability of ultimately incurring a liability, and records its best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where it assesses the likelihood of loss as probable. In the opinion of management, based on consultations with legal counsel, the disposition of litigation currently pending against the Company is unlikely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
