(Nasdaq: ICON) (“Iconix” or the “Company”), today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its interest in the Peanuts and Strawberry Shortcake brands to DHX Media Ltd. for $345 million in cash, subject to a customary working capital adjustment. John Haugh, Chief Executive Officer of Iconix, said, “One of our strategic objectives has been to de-lever and strengthen our balance sheet. This sale aligns with this objective. As we monetize the value we have created in our entertainment business, we can reduce our debt and pay down a term loan that is expensive and highly restrictive. We are now focused on a second strategic objective of driving profitable revenue growth by focusing our resources on the businesses where we have a leadership position- fashion, active and home. Peanuts and Strawberry Shortcake are iconic entertainment properties, and we are proud of the contributions Iconix has made to these brands. Specifically with Peanuts, in partnership with the Schulz family, we have produced the first-ever feature film, delivered countless worldwide collaborations and significantly grown the worldwide presence of Peanuts.” The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this transaction plus additional cash on the balance sheet to pay down approximately $362 million of debt.
