Inventory Impairment Write-down
On May 2, 2019, Timothy A. Peterman was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the Company (See Note 17 - “Executive and Management Transition Costs”) and implemented a new merchandise strategy to shift airtime and merchandise by increasing higher contribution margin categories, such as jewelry & watches and beauty & wellness, and decreasing home and fashion & accessories. This change of strategy resulted in the need to liquidate excess inventory in the fashion & accessories and home product categories as a result of the reduced airtime being allocated to those categories. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash inventory write-down of $6,050,000 within cost of sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2019.
