Hilco Streambank to Sell dELiA*s Intellectual Property

February 13, 2015, 07:42 AM
Filed Under: Bankruptcy

Hilco Streambank is acting on behalf of a joint venture of Hilco Merchant Resources and Gordon Brothers Retail Partners, the exclusive agent of dELiA*s, Inc. in connection with the sale of the intellectual property and other assets related to the company's direct and retail business (the "Assets"). The Assets are being sold in a sale under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code in a Chapter 11 case pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in White Plains, NY. A "Stalking Horse" offer of $2.5 million to acquire the Assets has been accepted subject to higher and better offers at the Auction.

dELiA*s was started in 1993 with the goal of producing and selling clothing, footwear and accessories to teenage girls that expressed a fun and light hearted sensibility. Over time, dELiA*s evolved into an omni-channel retailer whose products were distributed through its e-commerce website, by direct mail catalogs and mall-based retail stores. For the fiscal years 2011, 2012 and 2013 dELiA*s aggregate annual sales through all channels were $172, 181 and 137 million, respectively. On December 7, 2014, the Company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, and thereafter commenced the liquidation of its inventory through its stores and e-commerce channel.  Hilco Streambank is soliciting additional bids for the Assets, which bids must be received by the bid deadline on February 18, 2015 at Noon EST.
