Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On November 7, 2018, Sequential Brands Group, Inc. (“Sequential”) issued a press release reporting its results of operations for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

As noted in the press release, Sequential has provided certain non–U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures and a reconciliation of the non–U.S. GAAP measures to U.S. GAAP measures. Sequential believes these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors because they allow for a more direct understanding of Sequential’s business. Readers should consider non–U.S. GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

The information contained herein and in the press release furnished as an exhibit hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is not subject to the liabilities of that section and is not deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. In addition, the press release contains statements intended as “forward-looking statements” which are subject to the cautionary statements about forward-looking statements set forth in such press release.
