Iconix Brand Group (NASDAQ:ICON) is a brand management company and owner of a diversified portfolio of global consumer brands across entertainment, home segments and fashion for men and women. Over the trailing 12 months, Iconix’s share price fell in response to a change in senior management, an accounting restatement, an SEC review and disappointing operating results resulting in a reduction of revenue and cash flow guidance. These events led to additional worries over the ability to refinance near-term debt maturities. As a result, we exited the position.
