About Our Company

 

We are an apparel and lifestyle brand company that is currently focused on innerwear products for women and men. Under our flagship brand name and registered trademark “Naked ® ”, we design, manufacture and sell men’s and women’s underwear, intimate apparel, loungewear and sleepwear through retail partners and direct to consumer through our online retail store www.wearnaked.com. We have a growing retail footprint for our men’s innerwear products in premium department and specialty stores and internet retailers in North America, including accounts such as Nordstrom, Dillard’s, Bloomingdale’s, Amazon.com, Soma.com, Saksfifthavenue.com, barenecessities.com and others.

 

Our products are sold in North America; however, we believe our products appeal to men and women around the globe. We are currently exploring international distribution relationships for our Naked and Wade X Naked products and we anticipate that we will commence selling a limited number of products in markets such as Europe, Asia, and Central and South America starting in 2017.

 

In the future, we intend to expand the Naked brand on our own and through licensing partnerships into other apparel and product categories that can exemplify the mission of the brand, such as athleisure and activewear, swimwear, sportswear, hosiery, bedding and home products, and more.

 

CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Naked Brand Group Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 17, 2005 under the name of Search By Headlines.com Corp. Immediately prior to the transaction with Naked Inc. described below, we were a public reporting “shell company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act.

 

On July 30, 2012, we completed a reverse acquisition of Naked Inc., whereby we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Naked Inc. in exchange for the issuance of 337,500 shares of common stock in the capital of our company to the Naked Inc. shareholders on a pro-rata basis, representing 50% of the capital stock of our company at the time. As a result of this reverse acquisition transaction, Naked Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of our company and our business became the manufacture and sale of direct and wholesale men’s innerwear and intimate apparel products in Canada and the United States to consumers and retailers.

 

Effective August 29, 2012, we changed our name from “Search By Headlines.com Corp.” to “Naked Brand Group Inc.” This change in our corporate name was effectuated by merging a wholly owned subsidiary of our company, which was formed solely to effect the name change, with and into our company.

 

Naked Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, was originally incorporated under the federal laws of Canada on May 21, 2009 as “In Search of Solutions Inc.” Naked changed its corporate name to “Naked Boxer Brief Clothing Inc.” on May 17, 2010 and to “Naked Inc.” on February 20, 2013. Naked Inc. continued from the federal jurisdiction of Canada to the jurisdiction of the State of Nevada on July 27, 2012. As part of the continuation, all classes of shares of Naked, including Class C, D, E and F common shares, were converted into one class of common stock of the continuing corporation.

 

On August 10, 2015, we effected a 1-for-40 reverse split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

 

On December 19, 2016, we entered into a letter of intent with Bendon Limited (the “LOI”), an intimate apparel company based in New Zealand (“Bendon”), for a proposed business combination of the companies. The LOI became binding on us on January 12, 2017 upon entry into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated January 12, 2017, by and among us and certain investors. The business combination is subject to the parties entering into a definitive agreement governing such transaction and the satisfaction of various closing conditions that will be contained therein. There is no assurance that the parties will enter into the definitive agreement or that the transaction will be consummated.

 

On February 9, 2017, we entered into entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the LOI with Bendon. The Amendment (i) extends the date, from February 10, 2017 to March 10, 2017, by which the parties shall have entered a definitive agreement regarding the business combination before certain penalties may be incurred; (ii) adjusts the Net Asset Amount (as defined in the Amendment) to $1.359 million, which amount will be adjusted as a result of any additional capital transactions as agreed to by us and Bendon, and is used to determine, in part, the extent to which the number of shares of our common stock proposed to be issued to Bendon in the business combination would be adjusted; and (iii) amends certain other terms and conditions of the LOI.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our shares of common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our shares of common stock, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 and any subsequent updates described in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, all of which are incorporated herein by reference and may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the SEC in the future, together with information in this prospectus and any other information incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including the risk factors set forth below. See the sections of this prospectus supplement entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference.” Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently see as immaterial, may also harm our business. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment.

 

This prospectus supplement also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this prospectus. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for information relating to these forward-looking statements.

 

Risks Related to this Offering

 

Our common stock may be delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market if we cannot satisfy NASDAQ’s continued listing requirements in the future.

 

On September 23, 2016, we received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of NASDAQ notifying us that we no longer comply with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) due to our failure to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity (the “Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”) or any alternatives to such requirement. In November 2016, we submitted a compliance plan to NASDAQ. On December 16, 2016, NASDAQ granted us an extension to March 22, 2017 to evidence compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement.

 

If we are unable to comply with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement by the March 22, 2017 deadline or any other NASDAQ continued listing requirement, our common stock may be delisted, which could make trading our common stock more difficult for investors, potentially leading to declines in our share price and liquidity. Without a NASDAQ listing, stockholders may have a difficult time getting a quote for the sale or purchase of our stock, the sale or purchase of our stock would likely be made more difficult and the trading volume and liquidity of our stock could decline. Delisting from NASDAQ could also result in negative publicity and could also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital. Further, if we are delisted, we would also incur additional costs under state blue sky laws in connection with any sales of our securities. These requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of our common stock and the ability of our stockholders to sell our common stock in the secondary market. If our common stock is delisted by NASDAQ, our common stock may be eligible to trade on an over-the-counter quotation system, such as the OTCQB market, where an investor may find it more difficult to sell our stock or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. We cannot assure you that our common stock, if delisted from NASDAQ, will be listed on another national securities exchange or quoted on an over-the counter quotation system.

 

Investors should be aware that the value of an investment in our company may go down as well as up. In addition, there can be no certainty that the market value of an investment in our company will fully reflect its underlying value.

 

Even if an active trading market for our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock may be significantly volatile.

 

Even if an active market for our common stock develops, of which no assurances can be given, the market price for our common stock may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:

 

    actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;

 

    our cash position;

 

    announcement or expectation of additional financing efforts;

 

    issuances of debt or equity securities;

 

    sales of our shares of common stock by us, or our shareholders in the future;

 

    trading volume of our shares of common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market;

 

  S- 3  

 

 

    changes in financial or operational estimates or projections;

 

    developments or disputes concerning our product’s intellectual property rights;

 

    additions or departures of key management, scientific or other personnel;

 

    changes in accounting practices;

 

    conditions in markets generally and our industry specifically;

 

    changes in the economic performance or market valuations of companies similar to ours; and

 

    general economic or political conditions in the United States or elsewhere.

 

The securities market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock.

 

Because we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the near future, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

 

We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the near future. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and such other factors as the board of directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

 

Future sales of shares by existing stockholders could cause our stock price to decline and investors in this offering may experience dilution by exercises of outstanding options and warrants.

 

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares of common stock intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock.

 

As of October 31, 2016, we had outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 2,037,399 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $5.10 per share and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,645,198 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $5.27 per share. The exercise of such outstanding options and warrants will result in further dilution of your investment. If our existing stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or if the public perceives that such sales could occur, this could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock, even if there is no relationship between such sales and the performance of our business.

 

If you purchase shares of common stock sold in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in your investment.

 

Purchasers of common stock in this offering will experience immediate dilution to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of common stock and the net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after this offering. After giving effect to the sale of shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $2.85 per share, and after deducting estimated offering expenses, you will experience immediate dilution of $2.20 per share, representing the difference between our as adjusted net tangible book value per share as of October 31, 2016 after giving effect to this offering and the public offering price. See “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase shares of common stock in this offering.

 

The actual number of shares we will issue under the distribution agreement, at any one time or in total, is uncertain.

 

Subject to certain limitations in the distribution agreement and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver placement notices to Maxim Group LLC at any time throughout the term of the distribution agreement. The number of shares that are sold by Maxim Group LLC after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on the market price of the common shares during the sales period and limits we set with Maxim Group LLC.

 

 

  S- 4  

 

 

We have broad discretion in how we use the net proceeds of this offering and we may not use these proceeds effectively or in ways with which you agree.

 

Our management will have broad discretion as to the application of the net proceeds of this offering and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of this offering. Our stockholders may not agree with the manner in which our management chooses to allocate and spend the net proceeds. Moreover, our management may use the net proceeds for corporate purposes that may not increase the market price of our common stock.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the information incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “would,” “intend,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our product line; our business plan; the enforceability of our intellectual property rights; projections of market prices and costs; supply and demand for our products; future capital expenditures; our collaboration with Dwyane Wade; relationships with retailers, wholesalers and other business partners; ability to add new customer accounts; and future borrowings under the Joint Factoring Agreement with Wells Fargo, statements relating to the structure, timing and completion of the proposed business combination with Bendon; our continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market until closing of the proposed business combination; the combined company’s listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market after closing of the proposed business combination; when we expect to seek shareholder approval of the business combination; expectations regarding the capitalization, resources and ownership structure of the combined company; the adequacy of the combined company’s capital to support its future operations; our, Bendon’s and combined company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions; the nature, strategy and focus of the combined company; anticipated growth rates; potential future acquisitions; the executive and board structure of the combined company; and expectations regarding voting by our stockholders. The material assumptions supporting these forward-looking statements include, among other things: our ability to obtain any necessary financing on acceptable terms; timing and amount of capital expenditures; the enforcement of our intellectual property rights; our ability to launch new product lines; retention of skilled personnel; continuation of current tax and regulatory regimes; current exchange rates and interest rates; and general economic and financial market conditions. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include: (1) a downturn in international economic conditions; (2) any adverse occurrence with respect to the development or marketing of our apparel products; (3) any adverse occurrence with respect to any of our licensing or endorsement agreements; (4) our ability to successfully bring apparel products to market; (5) our ability to successfully collaborate with Dwayne Wade; (6) product development or other initiatives by our competitors; (7) fluctuations in the availability and cost of materials required to produce our products; (8) any adverse occurrence with respect to distribution of our products; (9) potential negative financial impact from claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings or challenges; (10) our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights; (11) our ability to hire and retain senior management and key employees; and (12) other factors beyond our control. Additional risks also include those described under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 in Item 1A. under “Risk Factors,” and the risks described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities offered by us pursuant to this prospectus supplement, if any, for general corporate and working capital purposes. We have not determined the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for such purposes and, as a result, management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of net proceeds. The occurrence of unforeseen events or changed business conditions could result in the application of the net proceeds from this offering in a manner other than as described in this prospectus supplement. Pending their uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this offering in interest-bearing bank accounts or in short-term, interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.

 

  S- 6  

 

 

DILUTION

 

Purchasers of common stock in this offering will experience immediate dilution to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of common stock purchasers pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after this offering.

 

Our net tangible book value as of October 31, 2016 was approximately $340,067, or $0.06 per share of common stock. Net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing the net of total tangible assets, which excludes intangible assets, less total liabilities, by the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2016. After giving effect to our sale in this offering of shares of our common stock in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 at an assumed public offering price of $2.85 per share (the last reported sale price of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market on February 9, 2017), and after deducting the estimated offering expenses payable by us, our net tangible book value as of October 31, 2016 would have been approximately $5,115,067, or $0.65 per share of common stock. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.59 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $2.20 per share of common stock issued to the new investors purchasing securities in this offering.

 

The following table illustrates this dilution on a per-share basis:

 

             
Public offering price per share of common stock           $ 2.85  
Net tangible book value per share as of October 31, 2016   $ 0.06        
Pro forma increase per share attributable to new investors participating in this offering   $ 0.59          
Net tangible book value per share after this offering           $ 0.65  
Dilution per share to new investors           $ 2.20  

 

The above table excludes:

 

  The effect of the sale by us of 1,879,811 shares of common stock at the public offering price of $1.04 per share of common stock, pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated January 12, 2017 and filed with the SEC on January 18, 2017 (the “January Offering”);
     
 

The effect of the automatic conversion of 9% secured convertible debentures into 202,520 shares of common stock upon closing of the January Offering;

     
  2,037,399 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options at a weighted average exercise price of $5.10 per share, of which 1,431,758 options are vested as October 31, 2016;

 

  1,645,198 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants at a weighted average exercise price of $5.27 per share, of which 1,608,629 warrants are exercisable as of October 31, 2016; and

 

  759,601 shares of our common stock available for future issuance under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan as of October 31, 2016.

 

To the extent that options or warrants are exercised, new options are issued under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, or we issue additional shares of common stock in the future, there may be further dilution to investors participating in this offering. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital because of market conditions or strategic considerations, even if we believe that we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. If we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

 

Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the dilution per share to purchasers in the offering may be more than that indicated above in the event that the actual number of shares sold, if any, is less than the maximum number of shares of our common stock we are offering.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

The material terms and provisions of our common stock are described under the heading “Description of Capital Stock” starting on page 5 of the accompanying prospectus.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We have entered into a distribution agreement with the sales agent pursuant to which we may issue and sell up to an aggregate of $5,000,000 of our common shares from time to time solely through the sales agent. A copy of the distribution agreement is being filed as an exhibit to a Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 10, 2017 and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the distribution agreement, the sales agent may sell our common shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the Nasdaq Capital Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock or to or through a market maker. The sales agent may also sell our common stock by any other method permitted by law, including in negotiated transactions. We or the sales agent may terminate the distribution agreement and the offering of our common stock upon notice.

 

We will pay the sales agent in cash, upon each sale of our common shares pursuant to the distribution agreement, a commission equal to 3.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of our common stock. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. We have agreed to reimburse the sales agent upon request for its reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the at the market offering in an amount up to $5,000, and the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of its legal counsel, in an amount up to $45,000. Additionally, we have agreed to reimburse the sales agent $5,000 for its legal fees on each bringdown date (as defined in the distribution agreement) while this offering is open.

 

Settlement for sales of common stock will occur on the third business day following the date on which any sales are made, or on some other date that is agreed upon by us and the sales agent in connection with a particular transaction. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement. Sales of our common stock as contemplated in this prospectus supplement will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and the sales agent may agree upon.

 

Maxim Group LLC will act as sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market. In connection with the sale of the common stock on our behalf, the sales agent will be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of the sales agent will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the sales agent against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

The offering of our common stock pursuant to the distribution agreement will terminate upon the earlier of the (i) sale of all of our common stock provided for in this prospectus supplement, or (ii) termination of the distribution agreement as permitted therein. We may terminate the distribution agreement with five days of prior written notice. The sales agent may terminate the distribution agreement at any time upon written notice.

 

The sales agent and its affiliates may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which services they may in the future receive customary fees. To the extent required by Regulation M, the sales agent will not engage in any market making activities involving our common stock while the offering is ongoing under this prospectus supplement.

 

This prospectus supplement in electronic format may be made available on a web site maintained by the sales agent and the sales agent may distribute this prospectus supplement electronically.

LEGAL MATTERS

 

The validity of the common stock being offered will be passed upon for us by Duane Morris LLP, New York, New York. Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP, New York, New York will advise on certain legal matters in connection with the offering on behalf of Maxim Group LLC.

 

EXPERTS

 

The consolidated financial statements of our company as of January 31, 2016 and 2015 and each of the years then ended have been incorporated by reference herein in reliance upon the report of BDO USA, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, incorporated by reference herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. The audit report covering the January 31, 2016 consolidated financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph that states that our company has incurred recurring losses from operations and has limited cash resources, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

About This Prospectus

 

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, we may, from time to time, offer and sell, either separately or together, any combination of the securities described in this prospectus in one or more offerings for cash. We may also issue any of the common stock, preferred stock, warrants, subscription rights, stock purchase contracts or units upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any of the securities mentioned above. The aggregate amount of securities that we may offer under the registration statement is $7,500,000, denominated in U.S. dollars or the equivalent in foreign currencies, currency units or composite currencies. We are subject to the provisions of General Instruction I.B.6. of the General Instructions to Form S-3, which provide that as long as the aggregate market value of our outstanding voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of our company is less than $75 million, then the aggregate market value of securities sold by us or on our behalf on Form S-3, during the period of 12 calendar months immediately prior to, and including, the sale, is no more than one-third of the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of our company. We have no outstanding non-voting common equity.

We take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. This prospectus and any accompanying supplement to this prospectus do not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities other than the registered securities to which they relate, nor do this prospectus and any accompanying supplement to this prospectus constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in any jurisdiction to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation in such jurisdiction.

 

For investors outside the United States: We have not done anything that would permit this offering or possession or distribution of this prospectus or any accompanying prospectus supplement to this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required, other than in the United States.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking StatementS

 

This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplements contain or incorporate by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “would,” “intend,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our product line; our business plan; the enforceability of our intellectual property rights; projections of market prices and costs; supply and demand for our products; future capital expenditures; our collaboration with Dwyane Wade; relationships with retailers, wholesalers and other business partners; ability to add new customer accounts; and future borrowings under the Joint Factoring Agreement with Wells Fargo. The material assumptions supporting these forward-looking statements include, among other things: our ability to obtain any necessary financing on acceptable terms; timing and amount of capital expenditures; the enforcement of our intellectual property rights; our ability to launch new product lines; retention of skilled personnel; continuation of current tax and regulatory regimes; current exchange rates and interest rates; and general economic and financial market conditions. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include: (1) a downturn in international economic conditions; (2) any adverse occurrence with respect to the development or marketing of our apparel products; (3) any adverse occurrence with respect to any of our licensing or endorsement agreements; (4) our ability to successfully bring apparel products to market; (5) our ability to successfully collaborate with Dwayne Wade; (6) product development or other initiatives by our competitors; (7) fluctuations in the availability and cost of materials required to produce our products; (8) any adverse occurrence with respect to distribution of our products; (9) potential negative financial impact from claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings or challenges; (10) our ability to enforce our intellectual property rights; (11) our ability to hire and retain senior management and key employees; and (12) other factors beyond our control. Additional risks also include those described under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 in Item 1A. under “Risk Factors,” and the risks described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

Risk Factors

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as revised or supplemented by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC since the filing of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, each of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, and you should also carefully consider any other information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus or include in any applicable prospectus supplement, including our financial statements and the related notes thereto. The risks and uncertainties described in our filings with the SEC and incorporated by reference into this prospectus are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently believe are not material, also may become important factors that affect us and impair our business operations. The occurrence of any of the events or developments discussed in the risk factors described in our filings with the SEC could have a material and adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, and in such case, our future prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected. If any of such events or developments were to happen, you could lose part or all of your investment. Further, our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors.

 

Use of Proceeds

 

Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement or in any free writing prospectuses we have authorized for use in connection with a specific offering, we anticipate that the net proceeds from our sale of any securities offered hereunder, if any, will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, repayment of debt and other business opportunities.

 

There is no guarantee that we will sell the securities described in this prospectus and, in the event that we do, there is no guarantee as to the total number of securities that we would sell, nor is there any guarantee as to the amount of net proceeds to be used specifically for the foregoing purposes. Our management will have significant discretion and flexibility in applying the net proceeds from the sale of these securities. Our plans to use the estimated net proceeds from the sale of these securities may change and, if they do, we will update this information in a prospectus supplement.

 

DESCRIPTIONS OF THE SECURITIES WE MAY OFFER

 

We may sell from time to time, in one or more offerings, shares of our common stock and/or preferred stock, warrants to purchase common stock and/or preferred stock, subscription rights to purchase preferred stock, common stock and/or other securities, stock purchase contracts to purchase shares of our common stock and/or preferred stock, and units in one or more offerings, and/or units consisting of one or more of the foregoing securities.

 

The descriptions of the securities contained in this prospectus, together with the additional information we include in any applicable prospectus supplement or in any free writing prospectuses we have authorized for use in connection with a specific offering, summarize some of the terms and other provisions of the various types of securities that we may offer under this prospectus. These summary descriptions are not meant to be complete descriptions of each security. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement relating to a particular offering the specific terms of the securities offered under that prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement for a particular security may specify different or additional terms.

Common Stock

 

Voting Rights

 

Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders including the election of directors. According to our bylaws, if a quorum is present, action on a matter by the stockholders is approved if the votes cast by the stockholders favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the vote of a greater number of affirmative votes is required by statute or the articles of incorporation, in which case such greater number of votes shall be required. Our bylaws provide that one third (33.3%) of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter by the stockholders constitutes a quorum of the stockholders for action on that matter. Our bylaws also provide that any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, if one or more written consents setting forth the action so taken shall be signed, either manually or in facsimile, by stockholders holding at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at a meeting, unless the vote of a greater number of affirmative votes is required by statute or the articles of incorporation, in which case the consent of the stockholders holding such greater number of votes shall be required.

 

The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of our outstanding common stock, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors.

 

Dividend Rights

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive the dividends as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for dividends. Our board of directors is not obligated to declare a dividend. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, the operating and financial condition of our company, its capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent factors. We have not paid any dividends since our inception and we do not anticipate that dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.

 

Miscellaneous Rights and Provisions

 

In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, whether voluntary or involuntary, each share of our common stock is entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of our common stock after satisfaction of all liabilities.

 

Our common stock is not convertible or redeemable and has no preemptive, subscription or conversion rights. There are no conversions, redemption, sinking fund or similar provisions regarding our common stock.

 

Our common stock, after the fixed consideration thereof has been paid or performed, is not subject to assessment, and the holders of our common stock are not individually liable for the debts and liabilities of our company.

 

Our bylaws provide that our bylaws may be amended or repealed, or new bylaws may be adopted, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the board of directors at any regular or special meeting of the board, unless the articles of incorporation or statute reserves this power to the stockholders.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors is authorized, subject to the limitations prescribed in our articles of incorporation and Nevada law, to provide for the issuance of shares of blank check preferred stock in series, and to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof. The authority of our board of directors with respect to each series of preferred stock includes, but is not limited to, the rights to determine the following:

 

  5  

 

 

  · the number of shares constituting that series of preferred stock and the distinctive designation of that series, which may be a distinguishing number, letter or title;
     
  · the dividend rate on the shares of that series of preferred stock, whether dividends will be cumulative, and if so, from which date(s), and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of dividends on shares of that series;

 

  · whether that series of preferred stock will have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights;

 

  · whether that series of preferred stock will have conversion privileges and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including provision for adjustment of the conversion rate in such events as the Board of Directors determines;

 

  · whether or not the shares of that series of preferred stock will be redeemable and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the date or date upon or after which they are redeemable, and the amount per share payable in case of redemption, which amount may vary under different conditions and at different redemption dates;

 

  · whether that series of preferred stock will have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase of shares of that series and, if so, the terms and amount of such sinking fund;

 

  · the rights of the shares of that series of preferred stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series; and

 

  · any other relative rights, preferences and limitations of that series of preferred stock.

 

Our board of directors may designate and issue series of our preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that may be superior to those of our common stock. The effects of the issuance of preferred stock upon holders of our common stock may include, among other things: (1) a preference in the payment of dividends to holders of preferred stock, which may restrict our ability to declare dividends on our common stock; (2) dilution of voting power if holders of preferred stock are given voting rights; (3) dilution of equity interests and voting power if the preferred stock is convertible, and converted into, common stock; or (4) a preference in payments upon liquidation to holders of preferred stock, which may limit liquidation payments on our common stock.

 

We will fix the designations, voting powers, preferences and rights of the preferred stock of each series we issue under this prospectus, as well as the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, in the certificate of designation relating to that series. We will file as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, or will incorporate by reference from reports that we file with the SEC, the form of any certificate of designation that contains the terms of the series of preferred stock we are offering. We will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the terms of the series of preferred stock being offered.

 

Anti-Takeover Provisions

 

Some features of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which are further described below, may have the effect of deterring third parties from making takeover bids for control of our company or may be used to hinder or delay a takeover bid. This would decrease the chance that our stockholders would realize a premium over market price for their shares of common stock as a result of a takeover bid.

 

Acquisition of Controlling Interest

 

The Nevada Revised Statutes contain provisions governing acquisition of a controlling interest of a Nevada corporation. These provisions provide generally that any person or entity that acquires a certain percentage of the outstanding voting shares of a Nevada corporation may be denied voting rights with respect to the acquired shares, unless the holders of a majority of the voting power of the corporation, excluding shares as to which any of such acquiring person or entity, an officer or a director of the corporation, or an employee of the corporation exercises voting rights, elect to restore such voting rights in whole or in part. These provisions apply whenever a person or entity acquires shares that, but for the operation of these provisions, would bring voting power of such person or entity in the election of directors within any of the following three ranges:

 

  · 20% or more but less than 33 1/3%;

 

  · 33 1/3% or more but less than or equal to 50%; or

 

  · more than 50%.

 

The stockholders or board of directors of a corporation may elect to exempt the stock of the corporation from these provisions through adoption of a provision to that effect in the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not exempt our common stock from these provisions.

 

  6  

 

 

These provisions are applicable only to a Nevada corporation, which: 

 

  · has 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have addresses in Nevada appearing on the stock ledger of the corporation; and

 

  · does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation.

 

At this time, we do not have 100 stockholders of record who have addresses in Nevada appearing on the stock ledger of our company, nor do we believe that we do business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. Therefore, we believe that these provisions do not apply to acquisitions of our shares and will not until such time as these requirements have been met. At such time as they may apply to us, these provisions may discourage companies or persons interested in acquiring a significant interest in or control of our company, regardless of whether such acquisition may be in the interest of our stockholders.

 

Combination with Interested Stockholder

 

The Nevada Revised Statutes contain provisions governing combination of a Nevada corporation that has 200 or more stockholders of record with an interested stockholder. As of October 3, 2016, we had 247 stockholders of record. Therefore, these provisions apply to us as of such date.

 

A corporation affected by these provisions may not engage in a combination within three years after the interested stockholder acquires his, her or its shares, unless the combination or purchase is approved by the board of directors before the interested stockholder acquires such shares. Generally, if approval is not obtained, then after the expiration of the three-year period, the business combination may be consummated with the approval of the board of directors before the person became an interested stockholder or a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders, or if the consideration to be received per share by disinterested stockholders is at least equal to the highest of:

 

  · the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or within three years immediately before, or in the transaction in which he, she or it became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher;

 

  · the market value per share on the date of announcement of the combination or the date the person became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher; or

 

  · if higher for the holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock, if any.

 

Generally, these provisions define an interested stockholder as a person who is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of a corporation. Generally, these provisions define combination to include any merger or consolidation with an interested stockholder, or any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, with an interested stockholder of assets of the corporation having:

 

  · an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the corporation;

 

  · an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the corporation; or

 

  · representing 10% or more of the earning power or net income of the corporation.

 

Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation, the existence of authorized but unissued common stock and undesignated preferred stock may enable our board of directors to make more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of management.  If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the board of directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, such shares could be issued by the board of directors without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by putting a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.

 

In addition, our Articles of Incorporation grants our board of directors broad power to establish the rights and preferences of authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock.  The issuance of shares of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock.  The issuance also may adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of those holders and may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of our Company.

DESCRIPTION OF UNITS

 

We may issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus or in any prospectus supplement in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder, with the rights and obligations of a holder, of each security included in the unit. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any time before a specified date or upon the occurrence of a specified event or occurrence.

 

The applicable prospectus supplement relating to units offered under this prospectus will describe the following terms, where applicable, of such units:

  · any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and

 

  · whether the units will be issued in fully registered or global form.

  

Plan of Distribution

 

We may sell the securities described in this prospectus separately or together from time to time in one or more transactions on a continuous or delayed basis through one or more underwriters or dealers, through agents, or directly to one or more purchasers, in private transactions, at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or from time to time at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices. The securities may be sold through a rights offering, forward contracts or similar arrangements. In any distribution of subscription rights to stockholders, if all of the underlying securities are not subscribed for, we may then sell the unsubscribed securities directly to third parties or may engage the services of one or more underwriters, dealers or agents, including standby underwriters, to sell the unsubscribed securities to third parties. We may also sell and distribute the securities offered under this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions, including in “at the market offerings” within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise.

 

Each time that we use this prospectus to sell the securities described herein, we will describe the method of distribution and the terms of the offering of the securities offered hereunder in a prospectus supplement, information incorporated by reference or other offering material, including:

 

  · the name or names of the underwriters, dealers or agent, if any;

 

  · the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds we will receive from the sale;

 

  · any over-allotment options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us;

 

  · any underwriting discounts and other items constituting compensation to underwriters, dealers or agents;

 

  · any initial public offering price;

 

  · any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

 

  · any securities exchange or market on which the common stock may be listed.

 

Only underwriters we name in the prospectus supplement, information incorporated by reference or other offering material are underwriters of the securities offered thereunder. Any underwritten offering may be on a best efforts or a firm commitment basis.

 

If we use underwriters in the sale, they will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell them from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase securities will be subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. We may offer the securities to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Subject to certain conditions, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities offered by the prospectus supplement, information incorporated by reference or other offering material. In connection with the sale of securities, underwriters may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of securities for whom they may act as agents. This compensation may be in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. 

 

  11  

 

 

Underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and these dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of securities could be considered underwriters, and any discounts or commissions received by them from us and any profit on the resale of securities by them could be considered underwriting discounts and commissions, under the Securities Act. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may change from time to time.

 

If we sell securities to a dealer, we will sell the securities to the dealer, as principal. The name of the dealer and the terms of the transaction will be set forth in the prospectus supplement, information incorporated by reference or other offering material. The dealer may then resell the securities to the public at varying prices to be determined by the dealer at the time of resale.

 

We may sell securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of securities, and we will describe any commissions we will pay the agent, in the prospectus supplement, information incorporated by reference or other offering material. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, our agent will act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

 

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, each series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than shares of our common stock, which are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Any common stock sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement will be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, subject to official notice of issuance. We may elect to list any series of preferred stock, warrants, subscription rights, stock purchase contracts, or units on an exchange, but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or the trading market for, any offered securities.

  

In connection with an offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell securities in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchase in an offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the securities while an offering is in progress. The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the underwriters have repurchased securities sold by or for the account of that underwriter in stabilizing or short-covering transactions. These activities by the underwriters may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities. As a result, the price of the securities may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. Underwriters may engage in overallotment. If any underwriters create a short position in the securities in an offering in which they sell more securities than are set forth on the cover page of the applicable prospectus supplement, the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing the securities in the open market.

 

Under agreements entered into by us for the purchase or sale of securities, underwriters and their controlling persons, dealers and agents may be entitled to indemnification by us against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which they may be required to make in respect thereof. Underwriters, dealers or agents that participate in the offer of securities, or their affiliates or associates, may have engaged or engage in transactions with and perform services for, us or our affiliates in the ordinary course of business for which they may have received or receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses.

 

Legal Matters

 

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of the securities being offered under this prospectus has been passed upon for us by Duane Morris LLP, New York, New York, and for any underwriters or agents by counsel named in the applicable prospectus supplement.
