In line Q2. Total company revenues of $2.95 million was in line with our $3.0 million estimate. Adj. EBITDA, which was essentially flat at a loss of $40,000 was in line with our loss estimate of $44,000. See Figure #1 Q2 Results for highlights. Q2 reflected sequential quarterly improvement from the Q1 adj. EBITDA loss of $1.6 million. 

Behind the numbers. In our view, the recent results reflect the company’s progress toward its high margin licensing model. But, the quarter also reflected the revenue from Lori Goldstein, which was sold on June 30. As such, Q3 will reflect the absence of revenue from that brand. Notably, the company’s developing brands, Christie Brinkley and C. Wonder, appear to be performing well and may offset a large portion of the anticipate revenue impact.
