x (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

PART III – NARRATIVE

 

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

 

iMedia Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended October 29, 2022 (the “Quarterly Report”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense. Additional time is needed for management to fulfill its responsibility to evaluate the adequacy of the Company’s liquidity disclosures as part of assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Additionally, the Company is working with its asset-based lender, Siena Lending Group, LLC (“Siena”), to address the Company’s compliance with certain covenants under their loan agreement. The Company was not in compliance with certain existing covenants as of October 29, 2022. In the event the Company is unable to obtain an amendment or a waiver from Siena, the Company anticipates that its $63.7 million revolving loan, its $28.5 million term loan and $3.1 million of convertible debt will be classified as current debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. For purposes of clarity, (a) while the Siena debt, the term loan and the convertible debt described above will be classified as current debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, they will not be due and currently payable unless and until a lender accelerates payment of the debt and (b) the Company’s outstanding 8.50% senior unsecured notes due 2026 are not in default.

 

As previously announced, to address its capital structure, the Company plans to enter into a sale-leaseback transaction with a real estate investment firm (the “Sale-Leaseback Transaction”), the proceeds of which the Company intends to use to retire existing debt. There can be no assurances that management will be successful with the sale leaseback transaction.

 

The Company intends to file the Quarterly Report on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Form 12b-25 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable United States securities laws. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding potential arrangements with creditors and other pending transactions, the Company’s potential sale-leaseback transaction and the anticipated proceeds to be received by the Company in connection with the transaction, accounting for indebtedness, the Company’s expectation to file the Form 10-Q within the 5-day extension period afforded by Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the  “Extension Period”) and the Company’s expectations that it will complete activities necessary to permit such filing within the Extension Period. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations or beliefs about the Company’s future plans, expectations and objectives. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, the Company not entering into the proposed Sale-Leaseback Transaction.  Readers of this Form 12b-25 are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date of this Form 12b-25.
