Weak start to the year, largely expected. Q1 revenues declined 63% to $2.2 million, in line with our expectations. The revenue decline reflected the absence of merchandise sales as the company shifted toward a capital light, licensing model. The full benefits of this shift is expected to be reflected in second half results. Adj. EBITDA loss of $1.6 million was a little heavier than our $1.1 million loss estimate.
Let go of the LOGO? The soft licensing revenue, which was down 1.7% yoy to $2.2 million reflected, in part, challenged revenue at LOGO by Lori Goldstein. LOGO sales have struggled, flat yoy in the quarter, as the popular talent has had scheduling issues and has not returned to regular studio production. Management indicated that it is exploring the disposition of the brand.
