Danskin, Inc. (OTC:PK: DANS.PK) ("Danskin" or the "Company") today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Danskin(R) intellectual property, to Iconix Brand Group, Inc. ("Iconix"). The transaction is anticipated to close in March 2007. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions including clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Anti Trust Improvements Act of 1976 as amended and Danskin stockholder approval.
The purchase price for the transaction will be $70 million with a contingent payment of $15 million, payable in cash or stock, triggered by the brand exceeding certain revenue and performance targets. If paid in Iconix stock and the stock appreciates during the earnout period, or thereafter, the Company could earn up to an additional $7.5 million.
As part of the transaction, Danskin will enter into a license agreement with Iconix to continue to operate the Danskin(R) wholesale business, including its freestanding retail stores and its internet merchant site, Danskin.com.
Donald Schupak, Danskin's Chairman said "The transaction will provide capital for growth of the Danskin(R) wholesale business and, at the same time, monetize its intellectual properties, enhancing opportunities to increase shareholder value. Carol Hochman and her team have done an exceptional job expanding this great brand and implementing a multi-channel distribution strategy in a markedly undercapitalized environment. In addition to providing working capital, Iconix marketing support will help complete the Company's vision for the Brand."

I've had a buy in at .24 for over 5 minutes. Still not filled. Only 2300 shares!

That is certainly good to know, Cass....
I was trying to find out what the float was on this...most of the places I have been looking has it listed as unavailable. The stock was removed from the OTCBB in '03 though...something like this agreement should be very good for this stock, I would think.

Doesn't look like you are getting your fill on this dip either....highest ask I have seen in a while...

Ok check out this Danskin and Iconix comparision./
Here is the last revs for Danskin in the last filing they had./
FinancialsQ3 (09/02) Total Revenue $23.21M Net Income $.25M
Ok now check out this filing from Iconix that is TRADING AT 22.92 a share!/
FinancialsQ3 (09/06) Total Revenue $22.11M Net Income $7.95M EPS $.18
Danskin earned more revenue in 2002 than Iconix earned in 2006!!! Danskin has only INCREASED their market share in ladie's clothing since then, so could they make more than Iconix that is TRADING AT 22.92 a share?! Not sure but I see Danskin all over the place (WalMart, JcPenney, Dilliards, etc) and I am sure glad I bought in today!

This fact alone is worth a thought....if you are a dancer or know a dancer, you WILL own Danskin something or other each year that you do it. My daughter is 4, and we ALREADY have purchased more than 20 Danskin items in 2 years of dancing. Not so much the shoes, but the leotards and tights are a GOLD MINE...
