PART I

        Note that all dollar amounts in Part I are in thousands of U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

Item 1.    Business

General

        Founded in 1985 and publicly traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market since 2007 under the symbol "SUMR," we are a global designer, marketer, and distributor of branded juvenile health, safety and wellness products (for ages 0-3 years) that are sold principally to large North American and European retailers.

        We currently market our products in the monitoring, health and safety, nursery, baby gear, feeding, play and furniture product categories. Most of our products are sold under our core brand names of Summer® and Born Free®. We also market certain products under license agreements.

        Our products are sold globally primarily to large, national retailers as well as independent retailers. In North America, our customers include Babies R Us, Wal-Mart, Target, Amazon.com, Burlington Coat Factory, Buy Buy Baby, Kmart, Home Depot, and Lowe's. Our largest European-based customers are Mothercare, Toys R Us, Argos and Tesco. We also sell through several international representatives to select international retail customers in geographic locations where we do not have a direct sales presence.

        The juvenile products industry is estimated to be $12 billion worldwide and consumer focus is on quality, safety, innovation, and style. Due to the halo effect of baby products in retail stores, there also is a strong retailer commitment to the juvenile category.

        Our principal executive office is located at 1275 Park East Drive, Woonsocket, Rhode Island 02895. Our telephone number is 401-671-6550. Our internet address is www.summerinfant.com. We maintain sales, marketing and distribution offices in Canada, Australia and England, which services the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe. We maintain a product development, sales, engineering and quality assurance office in Hong Kong.

Strategy

        At the end of fiscal 2012, we began a review of our business strategy and product lines. Historically, we have focused on growing sales through a combination of increased product penetration and store penetration, offering new products, adding new mass merchant retail customers and distribution channels, international expansion, and acquisitions. As a result of our ongoing review, we are refining our business strategies to focus on our core strengths and to improve profitability.

        While our business strategy review is ongoing, we have identified key areas of our strategy going forward. Our strategy is focused on our core strengths as a supplier of innovative and high quality juvenile products with a commitment to provide excellent customer service to our customers. Focus and execution with be a core mantra of the Company driving future growth and profitability and further development and support of our relationships with both retails partners and end-users of our products. By renewing our focus on these core strengths, we expect to drive future growth and improved profitability and to further develop and strengthen our relationships with retail partners and end-users of our products based on the following key strategies:

    Continuing Innovation—We will continue to leverage our in-depth knowledge of our customers and end-user consumers to deliver high quality, innovative products to the marketplace. We also will continue to focus on a "good, better, best" approach to price points to create products that appeal to different categories of end consumers. To the extent it is consistent with our strategy, we may acquire new products or expand existing product categories. We believe our product development expertise differentiates us from other companies in this market.

    Cultivating Relationships—We believe we have strong relationships with our customers and suppliers. We have long-standing, solid partnerships with each of our retail partners. We also have developed strong relationships with a group of suppliers that provide us with flexibility needed to engineer our products in a cost-efficient manner and to respond quickly to customer demands, We will continue to focus on building on these existing relationships to increase our presence in these stores and to expand with our customers as they enter new geographic locations. We will also continue to work with a growing number of specialty retail operators that would permit us continue our pursuit of a "good, better, best" approach and access to customers seeking differentiated products and support.

    Building Brands—Historically, we have marketed products under our own brands, under license agreements for other brands, or under private label agreements. Going forward, our focus will be on building our core brands of Summer® and Born Free®, particularly among first-time prenatal moms, through improved marketing, including through social media.

    Executing Operational Excellence—Our entire organization is focused on delivering operational excellence, and we have already begun initiatives, such as SKU rationalization and implementation of a direct import program, that we expect to favorably impact our operations while also providing improved results. By improving our analytic and forecasting capabilities, product development process, and managing working capital and costs, we expect to improve internal processes that should, in turn, benefit our customers.

        We believe that, based on our core strengths and strategic priorities, we are well-positioned to capitalize on positive market trends, including that U.S. birth rates are predicted to increase in 2013 after several years of low birth rates.

Products

        We currently market more than 1,100 products in seven product categories including monitoring, health and safety, nursery, baby gear, feeding products, play, and furniture. No single product sold generated more than 10% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2012. The majority of our products are sold under the Summer® and Born Free® brands.

Product Development and Design

        Product development drives innovation, a critical element of our strategy and success to date. We strive to produce proprietary products that offer distinctive benefits, are visually appealing, provide convenience and will appeal to the mid-tier and upper-tier consumers. Our retail customers are strategically motivated to buy innovative products in order to provide differentiation from their competitors. We design the majority of our own products and our main product development efforts are located at our Rhode Island headquarters. We also have development efforts in China and the United Kingdom. In addition to new product development, we continuously look for ways to improve upon existing products based on feedback from our customers and focus on the end-user experience, safety, and opportunities to improve our cost structure and pricing.

        We engage in market research and test marketing to evaluate consumer reactions to our products. We also research customer buying trends and analyze information from retail stores, our sales force, focus groups, industry experts, vendors, and our product development personnel. We continually analyze our products to determine whether they should be upgraded, modified, and/or discontinued.

        In 2012, we introduced our new Peek™Plus internet baby monitor system and re-launched our Born Free line of feeding products including baby bottles, drinking cups, sterilizing systems, and bottle warming systems. In 2013, we plan to re-launch our PRODIGY™ travel system with new fashion and an improved stroller platform and our next generation fully internet capable monitor system, Peek2®, which will have applications beyond the juvenile market.

Suppliers and Manufacturing

        Substantially all of our other products are manufactured in Asia (primarily China) and Israel. We also use several manufacturers in the United States for certain injection molded products, including bath tubs, potty seats and booster seats, which typically account for approximately 15% of our annual sales.

        We are not dependent on any one supplier since we use many different manufacturers and we own the tooling and molds used for our products. Our Hong Kong subsidiary provides us with a local sourcing presence and the ability to oversee quality, electronic engineering and other issues that may arise during production. Generally, we buy finished goods from manufacturers and thus are not directly procuring raw materials for product manufacturing. Historically, we have not experienced any significant disruption of supply to date as a result of raw material shortages or other manufacturing factors, but there is the possibility that shortages could occur in the future based on a variety of factors beyond our control.

        Transportation of Asia-made goods to our warehouses typically takes three to four weeks, depending on the location of the warehouse. We maintain our inventory at warehouses located in the

3


Table of Contents

United States, Canada, Asia, and the United Kingdom. Most of our customers pick up their goods at regional warehouses. We also use UPS and other common carriers to arrange shipments to customers (primarily smaller retailers and specialty stores) that request such arrangements. In 2011, our East Coast distribution center was consolidated into our West Coast distribution center to reduce costs. In 2012, we implemented a direct import program which we are expanding in 2013, in order to reduce costs and shipping time to customers.

Sales and Marketing

        Our products are largely marketed and sold through our own direct global sales force, which includes industry experienced professionals. We have also established a strong network of independent manufacturers' representatives and distributors, who provide sales and customer service support for the remaining portion of North American and international sales. On-line sales have continued to grow during recent years consistent with increased online shopping by consumers.

        Sales are recognized upon transfer of title of product to our customers and are made utilizing standard credit terms of 30 to 60 days. We generally accept returns only for defective merchandise.

        Marketing, promotion and consumer education are important parts of the juvenile products industry. Historically, a significant percentage of our promotional spending has been structured in coordination with our large retail partners. For 2013, our plans include increasing opportunities to create awareness and outreach to both our retail partners and our end-use consumer. In further support of this communication effort, we have recently added additional functionality and capabilities to our website.

        In addition, we will continue to support the promotion and presence of Summer brands and products in the marketplace with our new showroom and planogram space at our principal facilities in Woonsocket, RI, continued participation at select industry trade shows, trade and consumer advertising, as well as enhanced internet based promotional activities.

        Customer service is a critical component of our marketing strategy. We maintain an internal customer service department that responds to customer inquiries, investigates and resolves issues and generally assists customers and/or consumers.

Competition

        The juvenile product industry has many participants, none of which have dominant market share, though certain companies have disproportionate strength in certain product segments. We compete with a number of different competitors, depending on the product category, and compete against no single company across all of our product categories. Our largest direct competitors are Dorel Industries (including Safety 1st and Cosco brands), Evenflo (Evenflo, Gerry, and Snugli brands), Kid Brands, Inc., Fisher-Price (part of Mattel, Inc.), The First Years (a subsidiary of Tomy Corporation) and Graco (a subsidiary of Newell Rubbermaid). In addition, we compete in several of our product lines with a number of private companies, such as KidCo, Inc. and Munchkin.

        The primary methods of competition in the industry consist of product innovation, brand positioning, quality, price timely distribution, and other factors. Our competitive strengths include our product development expertise, our ability to develop innovative new products, relationships with major retailers, and the quality and pricing of our products.

Intellectual Property

        We rely on a combination of patents, licenses and trade secrets to protect our intellectual property. Our patents currently in effect include various design features related to bedrails, infant seats, bouncers, and potty chairs, with several other patents pending for monitors, baby swings, and other

4


Table of Contents

items. The patents expire at various times during the next 20 years. Our focus on continuous product improvement and innovation provides constant strength and renewal of our patent portfolio, well before expiration dates. We also have license agreements relating to the use of patented technology owned by third parties in certain of our products.

Customers

        Our top seven customers together comprised more than 74% of our sales in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011. These customers include Babies R Us/Toys R Us, Wal-Mart, Target, Amazon.com, Burlington Coat Factory, Buy Buy Baby, and K-Mart. Of these customers, three generated more than 10% of sales for fiscal 2012: Toys R Us (32%), Walmart (18%) and Target (10%). Three customers generated more than 10% of sales for fiscal 2011: Toys R Us (39%), Walmart (11%) and Target (10%).

        We have no long-term contracts with these customers and because of the concentration of our business with these customers, our success depends on our customers' willingness to purchase and provide shelf space for our products.

Seasonality

        We do not see significant variations in seasonal demand for our products. Sales history has exhibited some higher volume at times associated with initial shipments of new products. These orders usually incorporate enough product inventory to fill each store plus additional amounts to be kept at the customer's distribution center. The timing of these initial shipments varies by customer depending on when they finalize store layouts for the upcoming year, and whether there are any mid-year product introductions.

Geographic Regions

        In 2012 and 2011, North America accounted for approximately 93% and 90%, respectively, of our total net sales; the remaining sales were in the United Kingdom and all other geographies.

Regulatory Matters

        We obtain all necessary regulatory agency approvals for each of our products. In the U.S., these approvals may include, among others, one or more of the following: Consumer Product Safety Commission ("CPSC"), the American Society of Test Methods ("ASTM"), the Juvenile Products Manufacturing Association ("JPMA"), the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") and the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). We conduct our own internal testing, which utilizes a "foreseeable use and abuse" testing method and is designed to subject each product to the "worst case scenario." Our products are also frequently tested by independent government certified labs.

Insurance

        We carry a product liability insurance policy that provides us with $15,000 of liability coverage with a minimal deductible. We consult with our insurers to ascertain appropriate liability coverage for our product mix. We believe our current coverage is adequate for our existing business and will continue to evaluate our coverage in the future in line with our expanding sales and product breadth.

Employees

        As of December 31, 2012, we employed a total of 237 full time people, 133 of whom work in the headquarters in Rhode Island. Our employees are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our employee relations to be good.

Available Information

        We maintain our corporate website at www.summerinfant.com and we make available, free of charge, through this website our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports that we file with or furnish to the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file that material with, or furnish it to, the SEC. Our website also includes corporate governance information, including our Code of Ethics and our Board Committee Charters.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

        If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In those cases, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

The concentration of our business with a base of retail customers that make no binding long-term commitments means that economic difficulties or changes in the purchasing policies of our major customers could have a significant impact on our business.

        A small number of large, retail customers account for a majority of our sales. In fiscal 2012, Babies R Us/Toys R Us generated 32% of our total sales, and a total of seven customers accounted for more than 74% of our total sales. We have no long-term contracts with these customers and because of the significant concentration of our business with these customers, our success depends on our customers' willingness to continue to purchase and provide shelf space for our products. An adverse change in our relationship with any of our large customers could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Liquidity or other financial problems of our key customers could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        Sales we make to customers are typically made on credit without collateral. There is a risk that key customers will not pay, or that payment may be delayed, because of contraction of credit availability to such customers, weak retail sales or other factors beyond our control, which could increase our exposure to losses from bad debts. In addition, if key customers were to cease doing business or significantly reduce the number of stores operated, it could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our ability to grow and compete will be harmed if we do not successfully satisfy consumer preferences, enhance existing products, develop and introduce new products, and achieve market acceptance of those products.

        Our business and operating results depend largely upon the appeal of our products to the end user; consumers. Consumer preferences, particularly among parents whom are often the end purchasers of our products, are constantly changing. Our success largely depends on our ability to identify emerging trends in the infant and juvenile health, safety and wellness marketplace, and to design products that address consumer demand and prove safe and cost effective. Our product offerings compete with those of many other larger companies. Many of these companies enjoy broad brand recognition and significant distribution channel relationships, and as a result our market position is always at risk.

6


Table of Contents

        Our ability to maintain and increase our current market share will depend upon our ability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences and satisfy these preferences, enhance existing products, develop and introduce new products and establish and grow distribution channels for these products, and ultimately achieve market acceptance of these products.

An inability to develop and introduce planned new products or product lines in a timely and cost-effective manner may damage our business.

        In developing new products and product lines, we have anticipated dates for the associated product introductions. When we state that we will introduce, or anticipate introducing, a particular product or product line at a certain time in the future those expectations are based on completing the associated development, implementation, and marketing work in accordance with our currently anticipated development schedule. There is no guarantee that we will be able to manufacture, source and ship new products in a timely manner and on a cost-effective basis to meet constantly changing customer demands. The risk is also heightened by the sophistication of certain products we are designing, in terms of combining digital and analog technologies, utilizing digital media to a greater degree, and providing greater innovation and product differentiation. Unforeseen delays or difficulties in the development process, significant increases in the planned cost of development, or changes in anticipated consumer demand for our products may cause the introduction date for products to be later than anticipated or, in some situations, may cause a product introduction to be discontinued.

The intense competition in our markets could reduce our net sales and profitability.

        We operate in a highly competitive market and compete with several large domestic and foreign companies and with other producers of infant and juvenile products. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, and greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than us. In addition, we may face competition from new participants in our markets because the infant and juvenile product industry has low barriers to entry. We experience price competition for our products, competition for shelf space at retailers and competition for licenses, all of which may increase in the future. If we cannot compete successfully in the future, our net sales and profitability will likely decline.

We rely on external financing to help fund our operations. Covenants in our debt agreements may affect our liquidity or limit our ability to complete acquisitions, incur debt, make investments, sell assets, merge or complete other significant transactions.

        In order to meet our working capital needs, we rely on our revolving credit facility for working capital. In 2013, we entered into a new credit agreement expiring in 2018, which provides for a $80 committed asset-based revolving credit facility and a loan agreement for a $15 million secured term loan. These credit agreements contains certain covenants that place limitations on or restrict a number of our activities, including our ability to:

    incur additional debt;

    create liens on our assets or make guarantees;

    make certain investments or loans;

    pay dividends; or

    dispose of or sell assets or enter into a merger or similar transaction.

        In addition, our debt agreements contain financial covenants that were set at the time we entered into the agreement. Our performance and financial condition may not meet our original expectations, causing us to fail to meet such financial covenants. These restrictive covenants may limit our ability to

7


Table of Contents

engage in acts that may be in our best long-term interests. Non-compliance with the covenants in our debt agreements could result in us being unable to utilize borrowings under our revolving credit facility, a circumstance which potentially could occur when operating shortfalls would most require supplementary borrowings to enable us to continue to fund our operations. If we are unable to generate sufficient available cash flow to service our outstanding debt we would need to refinance such debt or face default. There is no guarantee that we would be able to refinance debt on favorable terms, or at all.

Deviations from expected results of operations and expected cash requirements could result in a failure to meet financial covenants under our debt agreements which would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

        Any significant deviation in actual results from our expected results of operations, any significant deviation in the timing of material expenditures from current estimates, any significant business or product acquisitions, or other significant unanticipated expenses could result in our not meeting our financial covenants under the terms of our credit facility and term loan and the lenders could declare a default, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. If actual events, circumstances, outcomes and amounts differ from judgments, assumptions and estimates made or used in determining the amount of certain assets (including the amount of recoverability of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, valuation allowances for receivables, inventories and deferred income tax assets), liabilities (including accruals for income taxes and liabilities) and or other items reflected in our consolidated financial statements, it could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. If access to our credit facility is limited or terminated, our liquidity would be constrained, affecting our operations and growth prospects, and we would need to seek additional equity or debt financing. There is no assurance that such financing would be available on acceptable terms or at all. Furthermore, any equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders and any debt financing may include restrictive covenants that could impede our ability to effectively operate and grow our business in the future.

We are dependent on key personnel, and our ability to grow and compete in our industry will be harmed if we do not retain the continued services of our key personnel, or we fail to identify, hire, and retain additional qualified personnel.

        We are dependent on the efforts of our management team, particularly our Chief Executive Officer, and the loss of services of members of our management team with substantial experience in the infant and juvenile health, safety and wellness markets could have an adverse effect on our business. If any members of management leave, their departure could adversely affect our ability to design new products and to maintain and grow the business.

        In addition, if we expect to grow our operations, it will be necessary for us to attract and retain additional qualified personnel. The market for qualified and talented product development personnel in the consumer goods market, and specifically in the infant and juvenile health, safety and wellness products market, is intensely competitive. If we are unable to attract or retain qualified personnel as needed, the growth of our operations could be slowed or hampered.

We rely on foreign suppliers in Asia to manufacture the majority of our products, and any adverse change in our relationship with our suppliers could harm our business.

        We rely on numerous third-party suppliers located in Asia for the manufacture of most of our products. While we believe that alternative suppliers could be located if required, our product sourcing could be affected if any of these suppliers do not continue to manufacture our products in required quantities or at all, or with the required levels of quality. We enter into purchase orders with our foreign suppliers and do not enter into any long-term supply contracts. In addition, difficulties

8


Table of Contents

encountered by these suppliers, such as fire, accident, natural disasters, outbreaks of contagious diseases, or political unrest, could halt or disrupt production at the affected locations, resulting in delay or cancellation of orders. Any of these events could result in delayed deliveries by us of our products, causing reduced sales and harm to our reputation and brand name.

Increases in the cost of materials or labor used to manufacture our products could decrease our profitability and therefore negatively impact our business and financial condition.

        Because our products are manufactured by third-party suppliers, we do not directly purchase the materials used in the manufacture of our products. However, the prices paid by us to these suppliers could increase if raw materials, labor, or other costs increase. If we cannot pass these increases along to our customers, our profitability will be adversely affected.

Because we rely on foreign suppliers and we sell in foreign markets, we are subject to numerous risks associated with international business that could increase our costs or disrupt the supply of our products, resulting in a negative impact on our business and financial condition.

        Our international operations subject us to risks, including:

    economic and political instability,

    restrictive actions by foreign governments,

    greater difficulty enforcing intellectual property rights and weaker laws protecting intellectual property rights,

    changes in import duties or import or export restrictions,

    timely shipping of product and unloading of product through West Coast ports, as well as timely truck delivery to our warehouses,

    complications in complying with the laws and policies of the United States affecting the importation of goods, including duties, quotas, and taxes, and

    complications in complying with trade and foreign tax laws.

        Any of these events or circumstances could disrupt the supply of our products or increase our expenses. Because of the importance of our international sourcing of manufacturing to our business, our financial condition and results of operations could be significantly harmed if any of the risks described above were to occur or if we are otherwise unsuccessful in managing our global operations.

Intellectual property claims relating to our products could increase our costs and adversely affect our business.

        We have, from time to time, received claims of alleged infringement of patents relating to certain of our products, and we may face similar claims in the future. These claims relate to alleged patent infringement and are primarily the result of newly-issued patents that were not in force when we initially brought the subject products to market. The defense of intellectual property claims can be costly and time consuming, even in circumstances where the claim is without merit. We may be required to pay substantial damages or settlement costs in order to resolve these types of claims. In addition, these claims could materially harm our brand name, reputation and operations.

Product liability, product recalls, and other claims relating to the use of our products could increase our costs.

        Because we produce infant and juvenile health, safety and wellness consumer products, we face product liability risks relating to the use by consumers of our products. We also must comply with a variety of product safety and product testing regulations. In particular, our products are subject to the Consumer Product Safety Act, the Federal Hazardous Substances Act ("FHSA") and the Consumer

9


Table of Contents

Product Safety Improvement Act ("CPSIA"), which empower the Consumer Product Safety Commission (the "CPSC"), to take action against hazards presented by consumer products. With expanded authority under the CPSIA, the CPSC has and continues to adopt new regulations for safety and products testing that apply to our products. These new regulations have or likely will significantly increase the regulatory requirements governing the manufacture and sale of children's products and increase the potential penalties for noncompliance with applicable regulations. The CPSC has the authority to exclude from the market and recall certain consumer products that are found to be potentially hazardous. Consumer product safety laws also exist in some states and cities within the United States and in Canada and Europe, as well as certain other countries. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, or if we face product liability claims, we may be subject to damage awards or settlement costs that exceed any available insurance coverage and we may incur significant costs in complying with recall requirements. Furthermore, concerns about potential liability may lead us to recall voluntarily selected products. For instance in 2011, we undertook voluntary action to re-label our audio/video nursery monitors and recorded a charge in connection with the settlement of outstanding litigation related to our analog video nursery monitors. Complying with existing or any such additional regulations or requirements could impose increased costs on our business. Similarly, increased penalties for non-compliance could subject us to greater expense in the event any of our products were found to not comply with such regulations.

We may have exposure to greater than anticipated tax liabilities, that, if not identified, could negatively affect our consolidated operating results and net worth.

        Our provision for income taxes is subject to volatility and could be adversely affected by nondeductible equity-based compensation, earnings being lower than anticipated in jurisdictions where we have lower statutory rates and being higher than anticipated in jurisdictions where we have higher statutory rates, transfer pricing adjustments, not meeting the terms and conditions of tax holidays or incentives, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes in actual results versus our estimates, or changes in tax laws, regulations, accounting principles or interpretations thereof, and taxes relating to deemed dividends resulting from foreign guarantees made by certain of our foreign subsidiaries. In addition, like other companies, we may be subject to examination of our income tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. While we regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes from such examinations and the adequacy of our provision for income taxes, there can be no assurance that such provision is sufficient and that a determination by a tax authority will not have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

A material impairment in the carrying value of acquired goodwill or other intangible assets could negatively affect our consolidated operating results and net worth.

        A portion of our assets are intangible, which are reviewed on an annual basis and whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of these assets exceeds the current fair value, the asset is considered impaired and is reduced to fair value, resulting in a non-cash charge to earnings during the period in which any impairment is determined. Events and conditions that could result in impairment include a sustained drop in the market price of our common stock, increased competition or loss of market share, product innovation or obsolescence, or a decline of our business related to acquired companies. In 2012, we recorded an aggregate non-cash impairment charge of $69,796, consisting of a write down of goodwill of $61,908 and a write down of a portion of intangible assets of $7,888. We cannot accurately predict the amount and timing of any future impairment of assets.

We may experience difficulties in identifying suitable acquisition targets and integrating strategic acquisitions.

        In the past, we have made strategic acquisitions and continue to pursue acquisitions that are consistent with our mission and enable us to leverage our competitive strengths. While we continue to evaluate potential acquisitions, we may not be able to identify and successfully negotiate suitable acquisitions, obtain financing for future acquisitions on satisfactory terms, obtain regulatory approval for certain acquisitions or otherwise complete acquisitions in the future. An inability to identify future acquisitions could limit our future growth.

        In addition, the integration of operations of those companies we do acquire into our operations involves a number of risks, including:

    the acquired business may experience losses that could adversely affect our profitability;

    unanticipated costs relating to the integration of acquired businesses may increase our expenses;

    possible failure to obtain any necessary consents to the transfer of licenses or other agreements of the acquired business;

    possible failure to maintain customer, licensor and other relationships after the closing of the transaction of the acquired business;

    difficulties in achieving planned cost-savings and synergies may increase our expenses or decrease our net sales;

    diversion of management's attention could impair their ability to effectively manage our business operations; and

    unanticipated management or operational problems or liabilities may adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.

        In addition, any future acquisitions or investments may result in:

    issuances of dilutive equity securities, which may be sold at a discount to market price;

    impairment of goodwill;

    use of significant amounts of cash;

    the incurrence of debt;

    the assumption of significant liabilities;

    unfavorable financing terms;

    large one-time expenses; and

    the creation of intangible assets, including goodwill, the write-down of which may result in significant charges to earnings.

Our stock price has been and may continue to be volatile.

        The market price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile. When we or our competitors announce new products, experience quarterly fluctuations in operating results, announce strategic relationships, acquisitions or dispositions, change earnings estimates, published financial results or other material news, our stock price is often affected. The volatility of our stock price may be accentuated during periods of low volume trading, which may require a stockholder wishing to sell a large number of shares to do so in increments over time to mitigate any adverse impact of the sales on the market price of our stock.

We rely on information technology in our operations, and any material failure, inadequacy, interruption, or security failure of that technology could harm our ability to effectively operate our business.

        We rely on information technology systems across our operations, including for management of its supply chain, sale and delivery of its products, and various other processes and transactions. Our ability to effectively manage our business and coordinate the production, distribution, and sale of its products depends on the reliability and capacity of these systems and in some instances third-party service providers. The failure of these systems to operate effectively due to service interruptions, problems with transitioning to upgraded or replacement systems, or a breach in security of these systems could cause delays in product sales and reduced efficiency of our operations, and capital investments could be required to remediate the problem.

Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and Delaware law may limit the ability of our stockholders to control our policies and effect a change of control of our company and may prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management, which may not be in your best interests.

        There are provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws that may discourage a third party from making a proposal to acquire us, even if some of our stockholders might consider the proposal to be in their best interests, and may prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management. These provisions include the following:

    our certificate of incorporation provides for three classes of directors with the term of office of one class expiring each year, commonly referred to as a staggered board. By preventing stockholders from voting on the election of more than one class of directors at any annual meeting of stockholders, this provision may have the effect of keeping the current members of our board of directors in control for a longer period of time than stockholders may desire;

    our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval and to establish the preferences and rights of any preferred stock issued, which would allow the board to issue one or more classes or series of preferred stock that could discourage or delay a tender offer or change in control; and

    our bylaws require advance written notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations.

        Additionally, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which, in general, imposes restrictions upon acquirers of 15% or more of our stock. Finally, the board of directors may in the future adopt other protective measures, such as a stockholder rights plan, which could delay, deter or prevent a change of control.

Company Overview

        Founded in 1985 and publicly traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market since 2007 under the symbol "SUMR," we are a global designer, marketer, and distributor of branded juvenile health, safety and wellness products (for ages 0-3 years) that are sold principally to large North American and European retailers.

        We currently market our products in the monitoring, health and safety, nursery, baby gear, feeding, play and furniture product categories. Most of our products are sold under our core brand names of Summer® and Born Free®. We also market certain products under license agreements.

        Our products are sold globally primarily to large, national retailers as well as independent retailers. In North America, our customers include Babies R Us, Wal-Mart, Target, Amazon.com, Burlington Coat Factory, Buy Buy Baby, Kmart, Home Depot, and Lowe's. Our largest European-based customers are Mothercare, Toys R Us, Argos and Tesco. We also sell through several international representatives to select international retail customers in geographic locations where we do not have a direct sales presence.

        The juvenile products industry is estimated to be $12 billion worldwide and consumer focus is on quality, safety, innovation, and style. Due to the halo effect of baby products in retail stores, there also is a strong retailer commitment to the juvenile category.

Strategy

        At the end of fiscal 2012, we began a review of our business strategy and product lines. Historically, we have focused on growing sales through a combination of increased product penetration and store penetration, offering new products, adding new mass merchant retail customers and distribution channels, international expansion, and acquisitions. As a result of our ongoing review, we are refining our business strategies to focus on our core strengths and to improve profitability.

        While our business strategy review is ongoing, we have identified key areas of our strategy going forward. Our strategy is focused on our core strengths as a supplier of innovative and high quality juvenile products with a commitment to provide excellent customer service to our customers. Focus and execution with be a core mantra of the Company driving future growth and profitability and further development and support of our relationships with both retails partners and end-users of our products. By renewing our focus on these core strengths, we expect to drive future growth and improved

14


Table of Contents

profitability and to further develop and strengthen our relationships with retail partners and end-users of our products based on the following key strategies:

    Continuing Innovation—We will continue to leverage our in-depth knowledge of our customers and end-user consumers to deliver high quality, innovative products to the marketplace. We also will continue to focus on a "good, better, best" approach to price points to create products that appeal to different categories of end consumers. To the extent it is consistent with our strategy, we may acquire new products or expand existing product categories. We believe our product development expertise differentiates us from other companies in this market.

    Cultivating Relationships—We believe we have strong relationships with our customers and suppliers. We have long-standing, solid partnerships with each of our retail partners. We also have developed strong relationships with a group of suppliers that provide us with flexibility needed to engineer our products in a cost-efficient manner and to respond quickly to customer demands, We will continue to focus on building on these existing relationships to increase our presence in these stores and to expand with our customers as they enter new geographic locations. We will also continue to work with a growing number of specialty retail operators that would permit us continue our pursuit of a "good, better, best" approach and access to customers seeking differentiated products and support.

    Building Brands—Historically, we have marketed products under our own brands, under license agreements for other brands, or under private label agreements. Going forward, our focus will be on building our core brands of Summer® and Born Free®, particularly among first-time prenatal moms, through improved marketing, including through social media.

    Executing Operational Excellence—Our entire organization is focused on delivering operational excellence, and we have already begun initiatives, such as SKU rationalization and implementation of a direct import program, that we expect to favorably impact our operations while also providing improved results. By improving our analytic and forecasting capabilities, product development process, and managing working capital and costs, we expect to improve internal processes that should, in turn, benefit our customers.

        We believe that, based on our core strengths and strategic priorities, we are well-positioned to capitalize on positive market trends, including that U.S. birth rates are predicted to increase in 2013 after several years of low birth rates

Recent Developments

Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment

        Due to the sustained decrease in our results of operations (below forecasts) and stock price during the third quarter of 2012, we undertook an interim goodwill and intangible asset impairment analysis and engaged a third party to assist management in valuing goodwill and other intangible assets recorded on our balance sheet. As a result, management determined that the estimated fair value of certain indefinite lived intangibles and implied fair value of our goodwill were lower than their respective carrying value, and the Company recorded an aggregate non-cash impairment charge of $69,796 in 2012. The non-cash impairment charge consisted of a write down of goodwill of $61,908 and a write down of a portion of intangible assets of $7,888. These charges affected our financial condition and results of operation for 2012; however, they have no impact on our day-to-day operations or liquidity and will not result in any future cash expenditures.

Cost Reduction Initiatives

        The Company began implementing several cost reduction initiatives in the third quarter of 2012 designed to lower promotional costs and advertising expenses, reduce operating costs, and improve

15


Table of Contents

margins. These initiatives have resulted in tighter controls of retailer programs costs, a reduction in worldwide headcount, a reduction in executive salaries in 2012, voluntary reduction in board of director compensation, cuts in overhead spending relating to discontinuing various outside services, and negotiated lower professional service fees.

New Credit Facility and Term Loan

        New Bank of America Credit Facility.    In February 2013, we entered into a new loan and security agreement (the "BofA Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., as agent, the financial institutions party to the agreement from time to time as lenders. The BofA Agreement replaces our prior credit facility with Bank of America that was set to expire in December 2013.

        The BofA Agreement provides for an $80 million, asset-based revolving credit facility, with a $10 million letter of credit sub-line facility. The total borrowing capacity is based on a borrowing base, which is defined as 85% of eligible receivables plus the lesser of (i) 70% of the value of eligible inventory or (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory and less reserves. Total borrowing capacity under the BofA Agreement at February 28, 2013 was $62.4 million.

        The scheduled maturity date of loans under the BofA Agreement is February 28, 2018 (subject to customary early termination provisions). All obligations under the BofA Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, subject to the first priority lien on certain assets held by the term loan lender described below. Proceeds from the loans will be used to satisfy existing debt, pay fees and transaction expenses associated with the closing of the BofA Agreement, pay obligations under the BofA Agreement, make payments on the term loan described below, and for lawful corporate purposes, including working capital.

        For additional information regarding the BofA Agreement, please see "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

        New Term Loan.    In February 2013, we entered into a new term loan agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement") with Salus Capital Partners,  LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each lender from time to time a party to the Term Loan Agreement providing for a $15 million term loan (the "Term Loan").

        Proceeds from the Term Loan will be used to repay certain existing debt, to finance the acquisition of working capital assets in the ordinary course of business and capital expenditures, and for general corporate purposes. The Term Loan is secured by certain assets of the Company, including a first priority lien on intellectual property, plant, property and equipment, and a pledge of 65% of the ownership interests in certain subsidiaries of the Company. The Term Loan matures on February 28, 2018.

        For additional information regarding the Term Loan, please see "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

        As of February 28, 2013, the effective date of the new credit facility, we had borrowings outstanding of $48.9 million and availability under the BofA agreement of $13.5 million.

Outlook

        Our business, financial condition and results of operations have and may continue to be affected by various economic factors. Although other factors will likely impact us, including some we do not foresee and those disclosed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year

16


Table of Contents

ended December 31, 2012, we believe our performance in 2013 will continue to be affected by the following:

    Economic Climate. Periods of global economic uncertainty, such as the recession experienced in 2008 and much of 2009, as well as recent market disruptions, can lead to reduced consumer and business spending. The current economic climate continues to affect our business in direct and indirect ways, including reduced consumer demand for our products, tighter inventory management by retailers, reduced profit margins due to pricing pressures from mass merchant retailers and a sales mix favoring lower margin products. In addition, reduced access to credit has and may continue to adversely affect consumers who desire to purchase our products from retailers and the ability of our own customers to pay us.

    Retail Market Conditions. Our industry is very competitive, with increasing pressure from mass merchant retailers on pricing in reaction to perceived lack of consumer confidence. These customers continue to seek favorable pricing and increased promotional activity from us and we expect this trend will continue into 2013. We continue to seek to reduce pressure on gross margins through a variety of methods, including reducing manufacturing costs and locating lower-cost sources of supply. We have also begun raising prices on certain products and phasing out lower margin products. However, we may not be able to increase prices or decline requests for mark-downs and/or other allowances from some of our larger, retail customers due to market and competitive factors. In addition, as we focus on our business strategy of building our brands, we expect to move away from licensing arrangements with third parties to selling more Summer branded products.

Summary of critical accounting policies and estimates

        This summary of our critical accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding our consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of our management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

        We make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The accounting policies described below are those we consider critical in preparing our financial statements. Some of these policies include significant estimates made by management using information available at the time the estimates were made. However, these estimates could change materially if different information or assumptions were used.

Revenue recognition

        We record revenue when all of the following occur: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded net of provisions for returns and allowances, cash discounts and markdowns. We base our estimates for discounts, returns and allowances on negotiated customer terms, and historical experience. These estimates are subject to variability, as actual deductions taken by customers may be different from the estimates recorded. Customers do not have the right to return products unless the products are defective. We record a reduction of sales for estimated future defective product deductions based on historical experience.

        Sales incentives or other consideration given by us to customers that are considered adjustments of the selling price of its products, such as markdowns, are reflected as reductions of revenue. Sales incentives and other consideration that represent costs incurred by us for assets or services received,

17


Table of Contents

such as the appearance of our products in a customer's national circular ad (co-op advertising), are reflected as selling and marketing expenses in the accompanying statements of income.

Trade receivables

        Trade receivables are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, we estimate doubtful accounts based on historical bad debt, factors related to specific customers' ability to pay and current economic trends. We write off accounts receivable against the allowance when a balance is determined to be uncollectible.

        We do not accrue interest on trade receivables. A receivable is considered past due if payments have not been received within the credit terms on the account, typically 60 days for most customers.

        We will turn an account over for collection around 120 days past due. Accounts are considered uncollectible if no payments are received 60 to 90 days after they have been turned over for collection.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

        The allowance for doubtful accounts represents adjustments to customer trade accounts receivable for amounts deemed uncollectible. The allowance for doubtful accounts reduces gross trade receivables to their estimated net realizable value. The allowance is based on our assessment of the business environment, customers' financial condition, historical trends, customer payment practices, receivable aging and customer disputes. We will continue to proactively review our credit risks and adjust customer terms to reflect the current environment.

Inventory Valuation

        Inventory is comprised of finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost, inclusive of freight and duty, or market (net realizable value) using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Our warehousing costs are charged to expense as incurred. We regularly review slow-moving and excess inventory, and write-down inventories as appropriate. Management uses estimates to record write-downs based on its review of inventory by product category, including length of time on hand and estimates of future orders for each product. Changes in consumer preferences, as well as demand for products, customer buying patterns and inventory management could impact the inventory valuation.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets with Finite Lives

        We review long-lived assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered to be impaired when its carrying amount exceeds both the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition and the assets' fair value. Long-lived assets include property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets. The amount of impairment loss, if any, is charged by the Company to current operations.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

        The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with accounting guidance that requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested annually for impairment and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company's annual impairment testing is conducted in the fourth quarter of every year.

        The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by comparing the asset's fair value to its carrying amount. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the excess of the

18


Table of Contents

carrying amount over fair value is recognized as an impairment charge and the adjusted carrying amount becomes the assets' new accounting basis.

        Management also evaluates the remaining useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortized each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. If an intangible asset that is not being amortized is subsequently determined to have a finite useful life, it is amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life.

        The Company tests goodwill for impairment using a two-step process. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of its single reporting unit with its carrying amount including goodwill. If the fair value of the single reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, the goodwill is considered not impaired, thus rendering unnecessary the second step in impairment testing. If the fair value of the single reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed in which the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is compared to the carrying value of the goodwill. The implied fair value of the goodwill is determined based on the difference between the fair value of the single reporting unit and the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the single reporting unit. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the carrying value, the difference is recognized as an impairment charge.

Income taxes

        Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under the asset and liability method, a deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry forwards. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is adjusted by a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize future tax benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence; it is more likely than not that such benefit will be realized.

        The Company recognized interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued at December 31, 2012. Our federal tax returns for 2009 have been audited by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. All audit adjustments have been recorded without significant impact on our results of operations. On a global basis, the open tax years subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates is between two to six years.

Year ended December 31, 2012 compared with year ended December 31, 2011

        Net sales increased 3.8% from $238,172 in the year ended December 31, 2011 to $247,227 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to organic growth resulting from increased distribution of existing products throughout our growing customer base, introduction of new products, and international growth. Sales increased in the furniture, feeding, safety, nursery, and play categories, offset, in part by lower sales in the monitor and gear categories year over year.

        Gross profit decreased 1.9% from $81,385 for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $79,772 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decline in gross profit and as a percent of sales is attributed to an unfavorable product mix, in particular, an increase in lower margin sales of furniture products and a decrease in sales of higher margin monitor products as well as a one-time $530 adjustment to cost of goods sold for the write off of obsolete inventory acquired from Born Free. In addition, markdown and returned goods allowances were higher during the year.

        General and administrative expenses decreased 7.2% from $44,928 for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $41,674 for the year ended December 31, 2012. In 2011, the Company incurred a lawsuit settlement, acquisition related costs, as well as other one-time charges that did not repeat in 2012. In addition, the Company began to benefit from overhead cost reductions initiated at the end of the second quarter of 2012.

        Selling expenses increased 30.3% from $22,259 for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $29,009 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to higher promotional costs related to customer cooperative advertising and placement of consumer ads, higher royalty payments under licensing agreements, and an increase in other variable selling costs associated with higher sales.

        Depreciation and amortization increased 18.6% from $6,377 in the year ended December 31, 2011 to $7,566 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is attributable to the depreciation of a higher base of short-lived assets consisting primarily of new product prototypes added in 2011 and early 2012.

        Due to the sustained decrease in our results of operations (below forecasts) and stock price during the third quarter of 2012, we undertook a goodwill and intangible asset impairment analysis and engaged a third party to assist management in valuing goodwill and other intangible assets recorded on our balance sheet in the third quarter of 2012. As a result, management determined that the estimated fair value of certain indefinite lived intangibles and implied fair value of our goodwill were lower than their respective carrying value, and the Company recorded an estimated aggregate non-cash impairment charge of $69,796 in 2012. The non-cash impairment charge consisted of a write down of goodwill of $61,908 and a write down of a portion of intangible assets of $7,888. These charges affected our financial condition and results of operations for 2012; however, they have no impact on our day-to-day operations or liquidity and will not result in any future cash expenditures.

        Interest expense increased 48.7% from $2,790 in the year ended December 31, 2011 to $4,148 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Interest expense increased as a result of higher interest rates and higher average debt levels on our credit facility in effect for 2012.

        For the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a $1,220 provision for income taxes on $5,031 of pretax income, resulting in a 24% tax rate for the year. For the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded a $6,768 million tax benefit. The tax benefit in 2012 is primarily attributable to a $6,000 benefit recorded related to the deferred tax adjustment resulting from the impairment of goodwill and intangible asset charge taken during the year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        We generally fund our operations and working capital needs through cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facility.

        Through 2011, our sales increased significantly, which led to a substantial increase in working capital requirements, specifically accounts receivable and inventory. In a typical cash flow cycle, inventory is purchased to meet expected demand plus a safety stock. Because the majority of our suppliers are based in Asia, inventory takes from three to four weeks to arrive from Asia to the various distribution points we maintain in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. Payment terms for these vendors are approximately 60-90 days from the date the product ships from Asia, therefore we are generally paying for the product a short time after it is physically received in the United States. In turn, sales to customers generally have payment terms of 30 to 60 days, resulting in an accounts receivable and increasing the amount of cash required to fund working capital. In order to bridge the gap between paying our suppliers and receiving payment from our customers for goods sold, we rely on our credit facility.

        The majority of capital expenditures are for tools related to new product introductions. We receive indications from retailers generally around the middle of each year as to what products the retailer will be taking into its product line for the upcoming year. Based on these indications, we will then acquire the tools required to build the products. In most cases the payments for the tools are spread out over a three to four month period.

        In August 2010, we entered into a secured credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and each of the financial institutions that is a signatory to the Agreement. The agreement was amended on March 24, 2011 and on November 9, 2011 (as amended, the "Loan Agreement"). The Loan Agreement provides for an $80,000 working capital revolving credit facility and a $20,000 "accordion" credit facility. The loan matures on June 30, 2013.

        Summer and its subsidiaries, Summer Infant (USA), Inc., Summer Infant Europe Limited, Summer Infant Asia Limited and Summer Infant Canada, Limited are the borrowers under the Loan Agreement. This loan agreement replaced Summer's prior line of credit and is being used principally to fund growth opportunities and for working capital purposes.

        On May 11, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment (the "May 2012 Amendment") that revised the Company's financial covenants and extended the maturity date an additional six months to December 31, 2013. In addition, the prior $20,000 "accordion" feature was removed and two additional pricing tiers based on the leverage covenant performance were added.

        The Loan Agreement allows the Company to borrow under the credit facility at LIBOR or at a base rate, plus applicable margins based on the funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio for the most recent twelve month rolling quarter end. Applicable margins vary between a 200 to 375 basis point spread over LIBOR and between a zero to 175 basis point spread on base rate loans. In addition, the credit facility has an unused line fee based on the unused amount of the credit facility equal to 25 basis points.

        On November 7, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Fourth Amendment") that waived certain covenant defaults, revised the Company's financial covenants, added additional applicable rate margin spread pricing tiers and added a payment in kind (PIK) interest rate of 200 basis points on any outstanding loan balance effective October 1, 2012.

        Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, beginning October 1, 2012, the applicable margins no longer vary depending upon the funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio and are instead fixed at 4.75% for Eurodollar or BBA LIBOR rate loans and L/C fees and 2.75% for base rate loans through March 31, 2013, increasing by 1.00% each fiscal quarter thereafter. In addition, beginning on October 1, 2012, loans will begin bearing additional interest of 2.00% per annum not paid in cash but payable in kind by adding such accrued interest to the outstanding principal of the loans, or "PIK interest."

Table of Contents

        The Company has also entered into various interest rate swap agreements in the past which effectively fixed the interest rates on a portion of the outstanding debt, of which, the last agreement matured on June 7, 2012. In addition, the credit facility has an unused line fee based on the unused amount of the credit facility equal to 25 basis points.

        The Loan Agreement also contained customary events of default, including a cross default provision and a change of control provision. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Loan Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, all outstanding obligations become due and payable.

        As of December 31, 2012, we had $64,077 outstanding of the total committed amount of $80,000.

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities totaled $4,643, which primarily relates to operating income excluding our non-cash impairment of goodwill and intangible asset charge. At December 31, 2011, net cash provided by operating activities totaled $9,385. The change in net cash relating to operating activities in 2012 as compared to 2011 is largely attributable to lower operating income in 2012.

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $5,596 which primarily relates to ongoing capital expenditures . At December 31, 2011, net cash used in investing activities was $20,769. The increase in net cash used in investing activities in 2011 was due primarily to the Born Free acquisition.

        For the year ended December 31, 2012, net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $2,925 which relates primarily to borrowings from our debt facilities to fund operations. At December 31, 2011, net cash provided by financing activities was $11,189. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2011 included borrowings from our debt facilities to fund the Born Free acquisition.

        Based primarily on the above factors, the net cash increase for the year ended December 31, 2012 was approximately $1,917, resulting in a cash balance of approximately $3,132 at December 31, 2012.

        The following table summarizes our significant contractual commitments at December 31, 2012:

        Estimated future interest payments on our line of credit were based upon the interest rates in effect at December 31, 2012.

        New Bank of America Credit Facility.    On February 28, 2013, we entered into a new loan and security agreement (the "BofA Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., as agent, the financial institutions party to the agreement from time to time as lenders. The BofA Agreement replaces the Company's prior credit facility with Bank of America.

        The BofA Agreement provides for an $80 million, asset-based revolving credit facility, with a $10 million letter of credit sub-line facility. The total borrowing capacity is based on a borrowing base,

22


Table of Contents

which is defined as 85% of eligible receivables plus the lesser of (i) 70% of the value of eligible inventory or (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory and less reserves.

        The scheduled maturity date of loans under the BofA Agreement is February 28, 2018 (subject to customary early termination provisions). All obligations under the BofA Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, subject to the first priority lien on certain assets held by the term loan lender described below. In addition, Summer Infant Canada Limited and Summer Infant Europe Limited, subsidiaries of the Company, are guarantors under the BofA Agreement. Proceeds from the loans will be used to satisfy existing debt, pay fees and transaction expenses associated with the closing of the BofA Agreement, pay obligations under the BofA Agreement, make payments on the term loan described below, and for lawful corporate purposes, including working capital.

        Loans under the BofA Agreement bear interest, at our option, at a base rate or at LIBOR, plus applicable margins based on average quarterly availability under the BofA Agreement and ranging between 1.75% and 2.25% on LIBOR borrowings and 0.25% and 0.75% on base rate borrowings. Interest payments are due monthly, payable in arrears. We are also required to pay an annual non-use fee of 0.375% of the unused amounts under the BofA Agreement, as well as other customary fees as are set forth in the BofA Agreement. As of February 28, 2013 the base rate on loans was 3.75% and the LIBOR rate was 2.25%.

        Under the BofA Agreement, we must comply with certain financial covenants, including that the Company (i) for the first year of the loan, maintain and earn a specified minimum, monthly consolidated EBITDA amount, with such specified amounts increasing over the first year of the loan to a minimum consolidated EBITDA of $12 million at February 28, 2014, and (ii) beginning with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2014, maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0 for each period of four fiscal quarters most recently ended. For purposes of the financial covenants, consolidated EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus certain customary expenses, fees and non-cash charges and minus certain customary non-cash items increasing net income.

        The BofA Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. Among other restrictions, the Company is restricted in its ability to incur additional debt, make acquisitions or investments, dispose of assets, or make distributions unless in each case certain conditions are satisfied. The BofA Agreement also contains customary events of default, including a cross default, the occurrence of a material adverse event and the occurrence of a change of control. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the BofA Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, all outstanding obligations become due and payable.

        As of February 28, 2013, the effective date of the BofA Agreement, we had borrowings outstanding of $48.9 million and availability of $13.5 million.

        New Term Loan.    On February 28, 2013 we entered into a new term loan agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement") with Salus Capital Partners, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each lender from time to time a party to the Term Loan Agreement providing for a $15 million term loan (the "Term Loan").

        Proceeds from the Term Loan will be used to repay certain existing debt, to finance the acquisition of working capital assets in the ordinary course of business and capital expenditures, and for general corporate purposes. The Term Loan is secured by certain assets of the Company, including a first priority lien on intellectual property, plant, property and equipment, and a pledge of 65% of the ownership interests in certain subsidiaries of the Company. The Term Loan matures on February 28, 2018. In addition, Summer Infant Canada Limited and Summer Infant Europe Limited, subsidiaries of the Company, are guarantors under the Term Loan Agreement.

23


Table of Contents

        The principal of the Term Loan will be repaid, on a quarterly basis, in installments of $375,000, commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2013, until paid in full on termination. The Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR, plus 10%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.25%. Interest payments are due monthly, in arrears. As of February 28, 2013 the interest rate on the Term Loan was 11.25%.

        The Term Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants substantially the same as the BofA Agreement. In addition, we must comply with certain financial covenants, including that the Company (i) meet the same minimum, monthly consolidated EBITDA as set forth in the BofA Agreement and (ii) initially maintain a monthly senior leverage ratio of 1:1. For periods after February 28, 2014, the senior leverage ratio will be based on an annual business plan to be approved by the Company's Board of Directors and will be tested monthly on trailing twelve month basis. For purposes of the financial covenants in the Term Loan Agreement, the senior leverage ratio is the ratio of (i) all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement and the BofA Agreement to (ii) consolidated EBITDA for the twelve-month period ending as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal month. The Term Loan Agreement also contains events of default, including a cross default, the occurrence of a material adverse event, the occurrence of a change of control, and the recall of products having a value of $2 million or more. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Term Loan Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, all outstanding obligations become due and payable.

        We believe that our cash on hand and new banking facilities are sufficient to fund our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, unforeseen circumstances, such as softness in the retail industry or deterioration in the business of a significant customer could create a situation where we cannot access all of the available lines of credit due to not having sufficient assets or consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement described below) as required under our loan agreements. There is no assurance that we will meet all of our bank covenants in the future, or that our lender will grant waivers if there are covenant violations. In addition, should we need to raise additional funds through additional debt or equity financings, any sale of additional debt or equity securities may cause dilution to existing stockholders. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to address any unexpected changes in our operations could be limited. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise such funds if and when they are required. Failure to obtain future funding when needed or on acceptable terms could materially adversely affect our results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

        We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements during either of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for presentation of comprehensive income. Under the amended guidance, an entity may present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In either case, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. For public companies, the amendment is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and shall be applied retrospectively. Other than a change in presentation, the implementation of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Table of Contents

        In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for fair value measurement and disclosure. Among other things, the guidance expands the disclosure requirements around fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and requires disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but whose fair value must be disclosed. It also clarifies and expands upon existing requirements for measurement of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities as well as instruments classified in shareholders' equity. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

        Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures

(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

        As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2012. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, based on their evaluation, that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2012.

(b)
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

        Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a company's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and

26


Table of Contents

the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. It includes those policies and procedures that:

            1)    Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of a company;

            2)    Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of a company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the board of directors of the company; and

            3)    Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or deposition of a company's assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements.

        Because of the inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

        The Company's management has used the criteria established in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO Framework") to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Management has selected the COSO Framework for its evaluation as it is a control framework recognized by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, that is free from bias, permits reasonably consistent qualitative and quantitative measurement of the Company's internal controls, is sufficiently complete so that relevant controls are not omitted, and is relevant to an evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting.

        Management of the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of December 31, 2012, of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and based on its evaluation under the COSO Framework, management has concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

(c)
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

        There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Summer Infant, Inc.

        We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Summer Infant, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

        We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's controls over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

        In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Summer Infant, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

SUMMER INFANT, INC. AND SUBSIDIAIRES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

        The Company is a global designer, marketer, and distributor of branded juvenile health, safety and wellness products which are sold principally to large North American and European retailers. The Company currently markets its products in several product categories such as monitoring, safety, nursery, furniture, baby gear, feeding products, and play products. Most products are sold under our core brand names of Summer® and Born Free®. The Company has also marketed certain products under licenses with Carter's®, Garanimals®, and Disney®. Anchor products in these categories include nursery audio/video monitors, safety gates, bath tubs and bathers, durable bath products, bed rails, nursery products, swaddling blankets, baby bottles, warming/sterilization systems, booster and potty seats, bouncers, travel accessories, high chairs, swings, feeding products, car seats, strollers, and nursery furniture. Over the years, the Company completed several acquisitions and added products such as cribs, swaddling, and feeding to its product categories.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

        It is the Company's policy to prepare its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

        All dollar amounts included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are in thousands of U.S. dollars except share and per share amounts. Certain items in prior year financials were reclassified to conform to current year presentation such as the reporting of selling expenses separate from general and administrative expenses.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

        The Company records revenue when all of the following occur: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded net of provisions for returns and allowances, customer discounts, and other sales related discounts. The Company bases its estimates for discounts, returns and allowances on negotiated customer terms and historical experience. Customers do not have the right to return products unless the products are defective. The Company records a reduction of sales for estimated future defective product deductions based on historical experience.

        Sales incentives or other consideration given by the Company to customers that are considered adjustments of the selling price of its products, such as markdowns, are reflected as reductions of revenue. Sales incentives and other consideration that represent costs incurred by the Company for assets or services received, such as the appearance of the Company's products in a customer's national circular ad, are reflected as selling and marketing expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

        For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include money market accounts and investments with an original maturity of three months or less. At times, the Company possesses cash balances in excess of federally- insured limits.

Trade Receivables

        Trade receivables are carried at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates doubtful accounts based on historical bad debts, factors related to specific customers' ability to pay and current economic trends. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance when a balance is determined to be uncollectible.

Inventory Valuation

        Inventory is comprised of finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, or market (net realizable value). The Company regularly reviews slow-moving and excess inventories, and writes down inventories to net realizable value if the ultimate expected proceeds from the disposals of excess inventory are less than the carrying cost of the merchandise.

Property and Equipment

        Property and equipment are recorded at cost. The Company owns the molds used in the production of its products by third party manufacturers. Capitalized mold costs include costs incurred for the pre-production design and development of the molds.

        Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using either straight-line or accelerated methods.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets with Finite Lives

        The Company reviews long-lived assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered to be impaired when its carrying amount exceeds both the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition and the assets' fair value. Long-lived assets include property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets. The amount of impairment loss, if any, is charged by the Company to current operations. For each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, no such impairment existed.

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

        The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with accounting guidance that requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested annually for impairment and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company's annual impairment testing is conducted in the fourth quarter of every year.

        The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by comparing the asset's fair value to its carrying amount. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the excess of the

F-9


Table of Contents


SUMMER INFANT, INC. AND SUBSIDIAIRES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

carrying amount over fair value is recognized as an impairment charge and the adjusted carrying amount becomes the assets' new accounting basis.

        Management also evaluates the remaining useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortized each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. If an intangible asset that is not being amortized is subsequently determined to have a finite useful life, it is amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life.

        The Company tests goodwill for impairment using a two-step process. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of its single reporting unit with its carrying amount including goodwill. If the fair value of the single reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, the goodwill is considered not impaired, thus rendering unnecessary the second step in impairment testing. If the fair value of the single reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a second step is performed in which the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is compared to the carrying value of the goodwill. The implied fair value of the goodwill is determined based on the difference between the fair value of the single reporting unit and the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the single reporting unit. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the carrying value, the difference is recognized as an impairment charge. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company has determined that no such impairment existed. See Note 3 for discussion of 2012 impairment charge.

Fair Value Measurements

        Previously, the Company adopted ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures which established a new framework for measuring fair value and expanded related disclosures. Broadly, the framework required fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The standard established a three-level valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs.

        Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

    Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

    Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

    Level 3—Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

        The Company maintains policies and procedures to value instruments using the best and most relevant data available. In addition, the Company utilizes risk management resources that review valuation, including independent price validation.

        The Company has used derivatives to fix interest rates. As a matter of policy, the Company does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. This is a requirement in the Company's loan agreement to mitigate interest rate risk.

        The Company recognizes the fair value of interest rate swaps using Level 2 inputs.

        The notional amounts under the interest rate swap agreements totaled $3,522 which was approximately 6% of the Company's total outstanding bank debt at December 31, 2011. There were no interest rate swap agreements outstanding at December 31, 2012.

        The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, interest rate swaps, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short and long-term borrowings. Because of their short maturity, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term borrowings approximate fair value. The carrying value of long-term borrowings approximates fair value, which is based on quoted market prices or on rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities.

Income taxes

        Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under the asset and liability method, a deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is adjusted by a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize future tax benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that such benefits will be realized.

        Previously, the Company adopted the provisions of a new standard which provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon adoption and in subsequent periods. Upon the adoption, and at December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

        The Company's federal tax return for the year ended December 31, 2009 was audited by the Internal Revenue Service and all taxes and interest have been paid. The Company expects no material changes to unrecognized tax positions within the next twelve months.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

        The assets and liabilities of the Company's European, Canadian, Israeli, and Asian operations have been translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. All assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign affiliates are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the year and the income and expense accounts of these affiliates have been translated at average rates prevailing during each respective year. Resulting translation adjustments are made to a separate component of stockholders' equity within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses are included in the statements of operations.

Shipping Costs

        Shipping costs are included in selling expenses and amounted to approximately $2,251 and $2,329 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Advertising Costs

        The Company charges advertising costs to selling, general and administration expense as incurred. Advertising expense, which consists primarily of promotional and cooperative advertising allowances provided to customers, was approximately $22,558 and $17,565 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Use of Estimates

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Income Per Share

        Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.

        Diluted earnings per share for the Company is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of: the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period; the dilutive impact (using the "treasury stock" method) of "in the money" stock options; and unvested restricted shares issued to employees. Options to purchase 654,421 and 50,150 shares of the Company's common stock were not included in the calculation, due to the fact that these options were anti-dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

        In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for presentation of comprehensive income. Under the amended guidance, an entity may present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In either case, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. For public companies, the amendment is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and shall be applied retrospectively. Other than a change in presentation, the implementation of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

        In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting guidance for fair value measurement and disclosure. Among other things, the guidance expands the disclosure requirements around fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and requires disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of financial position but whose fair value must be disclosed. It also clarifies and expands upon existing requirements for measurement of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities as well as instruments classified in shareholders' equity. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting pronouncement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

        Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

3. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

        ASC 350 "intangibles—goodwill and other" ("ASC 350) requires that indefinite lived intangible assets and goodwill are tested on an annual basis and more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate their carrying values may exceed estimated fair values. Because the Company has fully integrated its acquisitions, it has determined that it has only one reporting unit for purposes of testing for goodwill impairment.

        Due to the sustained decrease in the Company's results of operations (below forecasts) and stock price during the third quarter of 2012, management undertook an interim goodwill and intangible asset impairment analysis and engaged a third party to assist management in testing goodwill and other intangible assets recorded on the balance sheet.

        The Step I test for goodwill resulted in the determination that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeded its fair value thus requiring the Company to measure the amount of any goodwill impairment by performing the second step of the impairment test. Fair value of the reporting unit in Step I was determined based on a combination of a discounted cash flow valuation method as well as the Guideline Public Company Method—Control, Marketable Basis and the Public Traded Shares—Control, Marketable Basis Method. The second step (defined as "Step II") of the goodwill impairment test, used to measure the amount of impairment loss, compared the implied fair value of the single reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The loss recognized cannot exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. The excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. The Company estimated the fair value of its tangible and intangible assets as part of the process. Intangible assets included trade names, customer relationships and patents. For intangible assets, the Company selected an income approach to value trade names, customer relationships and patents. The customer relationships were valued using a discounted cash flow methodology while the trade names and patents were valued using a relief from royalty method.

        As a result of its analysis and the valuation study discussed above, management determined the implied fair value of goodwill was zero and the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $61,908 in 2012.

        The change in goodwill during the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was as follows:

 
  2012   2011  

Balance at beginning of year

  $ 61,908   $ 50,375

3. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS (Continued)

Intangible assets

        As a result of its analysis and the valuation study discussed previously, prior to testing goodwill for impairment management determined that the estimated fair value of an indefinite lived intangible for a brand name (based on the relief from royalty method of the income approach) was lower than carrying value and recorded a write-down as summarized below. As part of this review, the Company reclassified a customer relationship which had previously been classified as an indefinite-lived intangible asset to a finite-lived intangible asset with a twenty year life. Amortization has been recorded in 2012 and is included in the table below.

        Intangible assets consist of the following:

 
  December 31,  
 
  2012   2011

Intangible assets, net

  $ 21,046   $ 30,045  
           

        The amortization period for the majority of the intangible assets ranges from 5 to 20 years for those assets that have an estimated life; certain of the assets have indefinite lives (brand names). Total of intangibles not subject to amortization amounted to $12,308 and $22,546 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

        Amortization expense amounted to $1,110 and $1,222 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Estimated amortization expense for the next five years is as follows:

Credit Facilities

        In August 2010, the Company entered into a secured credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and each of the financial institutions a signatory to the agreement. The agreement was amended on March 24, 2011 and on November 9, 2011 (as amended, the "Loan Agreement"). The Loan Agreement provides for an $80,000 working capital revolving credit facility and a $20,000 "accordion" credit facility. The Loan Agreement was amended on November 9, 2011, which modified certain financial covenants. The amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility are payable in full upon maturity. The credit facilities mature on December 31, 2013. The amount outstanding on the credit facilities at December 31, 2012 was $64,077.

        Aggregate maturities of long term debt related to this note are as follows:

        The Company and its subsidiaries, Summer Infant (USA), Inc. Summer Infant Europe Limited, Summer Infant Asia Limited and Summer Infant Canada, Limited are the borrowers under this Loan Agreement. This credit facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

        The Company's ability to borrow under the Loan Agreement is subject to its ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants, including the following: (i) that the Company and its subsidiaries maintain consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of at least $20,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, which increases to $23,000 on a quarterly basis over the remainder of the term; (ii) that the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a ratio of total funded debt to consolidated EBITDA of not greater than 3.25:1.00, and (iii) that the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a ratio of operating cash flow to debt service of not less than 1.50:1.00. Upon utilizing all approved and permitted Add Backs, as defined in the Loan Agreement, the Company was in compliance with these and all other covenants at December 31, 2011.

        These credit facilities bore interest at a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 200 basis points to 300 basis points, depending upon the ratio of the Company's total funded debt to

5. DEBT (Continued)

consolidated EBITDA. The Company had also entered into various interest swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rates on a portion of the outstanding debt of which one is still active at December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, the rate on these credit facilities averaged 3.69%. In addition, these credit facilities have an unused line fee based on the unused amount of the credit facilities equal to 25 basis points.

        On May 11, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment (the "May 2012 Amendment") that revised the Company's financial covenants and extended the maturity date an additional six months to December 31, 2013. In addition, the prior $20,000 "accordion" feature was removed and two additional pricing tiers based on the leverage covenant performance were added.

        The Company's ability to borrow under the Loan Agreement is subject to its ongoing compliance with certain financial covenants, as revised in the May 2012 Amendment, including that (a) the Company and its subsidiaries maintain and earn on a consolidated basis as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for the twelve month period ending on such date equal to or greater than $17,500 beginning with the quarter ending June 30, 2012 and increasing over the remaining term of the Loan Agreement to $23,000 for each quarter ending on or after June 30, 2013; (b) the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a ratio of consolidated total funded debt to consolidated EBITDA of not greater than (i) 4.25:1.00 on June 30, 2012, (ii) 3.75:1.00 on September 30, 2012, (iii) 3.50:1.00 on December 31, 2012, and (iv) 3.25:1.00 on March 31, 2013 and thereafter; and (c) the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a fixed charge ratio of at least 1.50:1.00. Also in connection with the May 2012 Amendment, the Bank waived certain events of default that existed on March 31, 2012.

        The Loan Agreement allows the Company to borrow under the credit facility at LIBOR or at a base rate, plus applicable margins based on the funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio for the most recent twelve month rolling quarter end. Applicable margins vary between a 200 to 375 basis point spread over LIBOR and between a zero to 175 basis point spread on base rate loans. In addition, the credit facility has an unused line fee based on the unused amount of the credit facility equal to 25 basis points.

        On November 7, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Fourth Amendment") that waived certain covenant defaults, revised the Company's financial covenants, added additional applicable rate margin spread pricing tiers and added a payment in kind (PIK) interest rate of 200 basis points on any outstanding loan balance effective October 1, 2012.

        The Company's ability to borrow under the Loan Agreement is subject to its ongoing compliance with certain financial covenants, as revised in the Fourth Amendment, including that (a) the Company and its subsidiaries maintain and earn on a consolidated basis as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for the twelve month period ending on such date equal to or greater than (i) $12,500 beginning with the twelve month period ending September 30, 2012, (ii) $10,500 for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2012, (iii) $10,000 for the twelve month period ending March 31, 2013, (iv) $12,500 for the twelve month period ending June 30, 2013, and (v) $17,000 for the twelve month period ending September 30, 2013 and thereafter; (b) the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a ratio of consolidated total funded debt to consolidated EBITDA (the "consolidated leverage ratio") of not greater than 6.25:1.00 beginning with the twelve month period ending September 30, 2012, of not greater than 6.75:1.00 for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2012, of not greater than 7.00:1.00 for the twelve month period ending March 31,

2013, of not greater than 6.00:1.00 for the twelve month period ending June 30, 2013, and of not greater than 4.00:1.00 for the twelve month period ending September 30, 2013, and thereafter; and (c) the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a fixed charge ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.00 for the twelve month period ending September 30, 2012, 1.10:1.00 for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2012, 1.00:1.00 for the twelve month period ending March 31, 2013, 1.25:1.00 for the twelve month period ending June 30, 2013, and 1.50:1.00 for the twelve month period ending September 30, 2013 and thereafter. The Company was required to pay a fee in the amount of $200 in connection with the Fourth Amendment.

        Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, beginning October 1, 2012, the applicable margins no longer vary depending upon the funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio and are instead fixed at 4.75% for Eurodollar or BBA LIBOR rate loans and L/C fees and 2.75% for base rate loans through March 31, 2013, increasing by 1.00% each fiscal quarter thereafter. In addition, beginning on October 1, 2012, loans will begin bearing additional interest of 2.00% per annum not paid in cash but payable in kind by adding such accrued interest to the outstanding principal of the loans, or "PIK interest."

        The Company had also entered into various interest rate swap agreements in the past which effectively fixed the interest rates on a portion of the outstanding debt, of which, the last agreement matured on June 7, 2012. In addition, the credit facility has an unused line fee based on the unused amount of the credit facility equal to 25 basis points.

        The Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, including a cross default provision and a change of control provision. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the loan Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, all outstanding obligations become due and payable.

        New Bank of America Credit Facility.    On February 28, 2013, Summer Infant, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiary, Summer Infant (USA), Inc., entered into a new loan and security agreement (the "BofA Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., as agent, the financial institutions party to the agreement from time to time as lenders, and Merrill Lynch, Peirce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as sole lead arranger and sole book runner. The BofA Agreement replaces the Company's prior credit facility with Bank of America.

        The BofA Agreement provides for an $80,000, asset-based revolving credit facility, with a $10,000 letter of credit sub-line facility. The total borrowing capacity is based on a borrowing base, which is defined as 85% of eligible receivables plus the lesser of (i) 70% of the value of eligible inventory or (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory and less reserves. Total borrowing capacity under the BofA Agreement at February 28, 2013 was $62,400.

        The scheduled maturity date of loans under the BofA Agreement is February 28, 2018 (subject to customary early termination provisions). All obligations under the BofA Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company, subject to the first priority lien on certain assets held by the term loan lender described below. In addition, Summer Infant Canada Limited and Summer Infant Europe Limited, subsidiaries of the Company, are guarantors under the BofA Agreement. Proceeds from the loans will be used to satisfy existing debt, pay fees and transaction expenses associated with the closing of the BofA Agreement, pay obligations under the BofA Agreement, make payments on the term loan described below, and for lawful corporate purposes, including working capital.

        Loans under the BofA Agreement bear interest, at the Company's option, at a base rate or at LIBOR, plus applicable margins based on average quarterly availability under the BofA Agreement and ranging between 1.75% and 2.25% on LIBOR borrowings and 0.25% and 0.75% on base rate borrowings. Interest payments are due monthly, payable in arrears. The Company is also required to pay an annual non-use fee of 0.375% of the unused amounts under the BofA Agreement, as well as other customary fees as are set forth in the BofA Agreement. As of February 28, 2013 the base rate on loans was 3.75% and the LIBOR rate was 2.25%.

        Under the BofA Agreement, the Company must comply with certain financial covenants, including that the Company (i) for the first year of the loan, maintain and earn a specified minimum, monthly consolidated EBITDA amount, with such specified amounts increasing over the first year of the loan to a minimum consolidated EBITDA of $12,000 at February 28, 2014, and (ii) beginning with the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2014, maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0 for each period of four fiscal quarters most recently ended. For purposes of the financial covenants, consolidated EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus certain customary expenses, fees and non-cash charges and minus certain customary non-cash items increasing net income.

        The BofA Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. Among other restrictions, the Company is restricted in its ability to incur additional debt, make acquisitions or investments, dispose of assets, or make distributions unless in each case certain conditions are satisfied. The BofA Agreement also contains customary events of default, including a cross default, the occurrence of a material adverse event and the occurrence of a change of control. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the BofA Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, all outstanding obligations become due and payable.

        New Term Loan.    On February 28, 2013 the Company and its subsidiary, Summer Infant (USA), Inc., as borrowers, entered into a new term loan agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement") with Salus Capital Partners, LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each lender from time to time a party to the Term Loan Agreement providing for a $15,000 term loan (the "Term Loan").

        Proceeds from the Term Loan will be used to repay certain existing debt, to finance the acquisition of working capital assets in the ordinary course of business and capital expenditures, and for general corporate purposes. The Term Loan is secured by certain assets of the Company, including a first priority lien on intellectual property, plant, property and equipment, and a pledge of 65% of the ownership interests in certain subsidiaries of the Company. The Term Loan matures on February 28, 2018. In addition, Summer Infant Canada Limited and Summer Infant Europe Limited, subsidiaries of the Company, are guarantors under the Term Loan Agreement.

        The principal of the Term Loan will be repaid, on a quarterly basis, in installments of $375, commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2013, until paid in full on termination. The Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR, plus 10%, with a LIBOR floor of 1.25%. Interest payments are due monthly, in arrears. As of February 28, 2013 the interest rate on the Term Loan was 11.25%.

        The Term Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants substantially the same as the BofA Agreement. In addition, the Company must comply with certain financial covenants,

including that the Company (i) meet the same minimum, monthly consolidated EBITDA as set forth in the BofA Agreement and (ii) initially maintain a monthly senior leverage ratio of 1:1. For periods after February 28, 2014, the senior leverage ratio will be based on an annual business plan to be approved by the Company's Board of Directors and will be tested monthly on trailing twelve month basis. For purposes of the financial covenants in the Term Loan Agreement, the senior leverage ratio is the ratio of (i) all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement and the BofA Agreement to (ii) consolidated EBITDA for the twelve-month period ending as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal month. The Term Loan Agreement also contains events of default, including a cross default, the occurrence of a material adverse event, the occurrence of a change of control, and the recall of products having a value of $2 million or more. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries under the Term Loan Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable. For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, all outstanding obligations become due and payable.

Sale-Leaseback

        On March 24, 2009 the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Faith Realty II, LLC, a Rhode Island limited liability company ("Faith Realty") (the members of which are Jason Macari, the current Chief Executive Officer of the Company and director, and his spouse), pursuant to which Faith Realty purchased the corporate headquarters of the Company located at 1275 Park East Drive, Woonsocket, Rhode Island (the "Headquarters"), for $4,052 and subsequently leased the Headquarters back to Summer USA for an annual rent of $390 during the initial seven year term of the lease, payable monthly and in advance. The lease will expire on the seventh anniversary of its commencement unless an option period is exercised by Summer USA. At that time, Summer USA will have the opportunity to extend the lease for one additional period of five years. If Summer USA elects to extend the term of the lease for an additional five years, the annual rent for the first two years of the extension term shall be equal to $429 and for the final three years of the extension term shall be equal to $468. In addition, during the first six months of the last lease year of the initial term of the lease, Summer USA has the option to repurchase the Headquarters for $4,457 (110% of the initial sale price). With the majority of the proceeds of the sale of the Headquarters Summer USA paid off the construction loan relating to the Headquarters. Mr. Macari has given a personal guarantee to secure the Faith Realty debt on its mortgage; therefore, due to his continuing involvement in the building transaction and the Company's option to repurchase the building, the transaction has been recorded as a financing lease, with no gain recognition. At December 31, 2012, approximately $157 was included in accounts payable and accrued expenses, with the balance of approximately $3,498 included in other liabilities, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. This obligation is reduced each month (along with a charge to interest expense) as the rent payment is made to Faith Realty.

        On February 25, 2009, the Company's board of Directors (with Mr. Macari abstaining from such action) approved the sale leaseback transaction. In connection therewith, the board granted a potential waiver, to the extent necessary, if at all, of the conflict of interest provisions of the Company's Model Code of Ethics, effective upon execution of definitive agreements within the parameters approved by the Board. In connection with granting such potential waiver, the Board of Directors engaged independent counsel to review the sale leaseback transaction and an independent appraiser to ascertain (i) the value of the Headquarters and (ii) the market rent for the Headquarters. In reaching its conclusion that the sale leaseback transaction is fair to the Company, the Board of Directors

considered a number of factors, including Summer USA's ability to repurchase the headquarters at 110% of the initial sale price at the end of the initial term.

        In addition, the Company's Audit Committee approved the sale leaseback transaction (as a related party transaction) and the potential waiver and recommended the matter to a vote of the entire Board of Directors (which approved the transaction).

The Company had undistributed earnings from certain foreign subsidiaries (Summer Infant Asia, Summer Infant Australia, and Born Free Holdings, Ltd) of approximately $8,966 at December 31, 2012 which is all considered to be permanently reinvested due to the Company's plans to reinvest such earnings for future expansion in certain foreign jurisdictions. Earnings and Profits from Summer Infant Europe and Summer Infant Canada are not considered to be permanently reinvested due to the bank refinancing as discussed in Note 5—Debt. The cumulative effect in 2012 was $320 and will affect future years based on earnings. The amount of taxes attributable to the permanently reinvested undistributed earnings is not practicably determinable.

        As of December 31, 2012, the Company has approximately $2,951 of federal and state net operating loss carry forwards to offset future federal taxable income. The federal NOL's will begin to expire in 2028 and the state NOL's will begin to expire in 2016. The Company also has approximately $399, $114, and $266 of net operating loss carry forwards in Canada, the United Kingdom, and Asia which can be carried forward indefinitely.

        Authoritative guidance requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported, if based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. After consideration of all evidence, including the Companies' past earnings history and future earnings forecast, management has determined that a valuation allowance in the amount of $677 relating to certain state tax credits is necessary at Dec. 31, 2012.

        Upon the adoption, and at December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued at December 31, 2012 and 2011. On a global basis, the open tax years subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates is between two to six years. The Company expects no material changes to unrecognized tax positions within the next twelve months.

7. SHARE BASED COMPENSATION

        The Company has granted stock options and restricted shares under its 2006 Performance Equity Plan ("2006 Plan"). Under the 2006 Plan, awards may be granted to participants in the form of Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Restricted Stock, Deferred Stock, Stock Reload Options and other stock-based awards. Subject to the provisions of the plan, awards may be granted to employees, officers, directors, advisors and consultants who are deemed to have rendered or are able to render significant services to the Company or its subsidiaries and who are deemed to have contributed or to have the potential to contribute to the Company's success. The Company accounts for options under the fair value recognition standard. The application of this standard resulted in share-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 of $888 and $1,187, respectively. Stock based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. There were no share-based payment arrangements capitalized as part of the cost of an asset.

        The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The Company uses the simplified method to estimate the expected term of the options, but used an estimate for grants of "plain vanilla" stock options based on a formula prescribed by the SEC. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Share-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements in 2012 and 2011 is based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

        The following table summarizes the weighted average assumptions used for options granted during the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

    0 %   0 %

Forfeiture rate

    10 %   10 %

        The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2012 was $ 2.21 per share which totals $482 for the 218,428 options granted during such period. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted was $3.84 per share which totaled $379 for the 98,650 options granted during the year.

        Restricted stock awards require no payment from the grantee. The related compensation cost of each award is calculated using the market price on the grant date and is expensed equally over the vesting period.

Agreement") by and among the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary Summer Infant (USA), Inc., Born Free and the stockholders of Born Free. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company to the Born Free stockholders at closing was $24,607 (subject to adjustment), consisting of $14,000 in cash and approximately $10,607 in shares of the Company's common stock, or 1,510,989 shares based on a price per share of $7.02 (the closing price on the date of acquisition). In addition, the Born Free stockholders could receive earn-out payments upon achievement of certain financial targets over the twelve months subsequent to the acquisition up to a maximum amount of $13,000, of which up to $6,500 would be paid in shares of the Company's common stock (or 925,926 shares based on a price per share of $7.02). A portion of the shares issued at closing was, deposited in escrow for a period of 18 months as security for any breach of the representations, warranties and covenants of Born Free and the Born Free stockholders contained in the Purchase Agreement. On September 30, 2011 the Company received $1,000 in common stock from the Born Free escrow account due to a preliminary net asset adjustment as defined in the Purchase Agreement. This was accounted for on the balance sheet through an increase in acquired accrued liabilities by $1,000, and increasing treasury stock by $956 and goodwill by $44.

        On August 15, 2012, the Company settled all outstanding claims related to the net asset adjustment and earn-out provisions in the Purchase Agreement, resulting in a charge to general and administrative expense of approximately $453. The settlement included finalizing the net asset adjustment in the amount of $1,400. This adjustment also resulted in an increase to treasury stock of $327 reflecting additional shares (130,515) returned to the Company. In addition, there was no payment required under the earn-out provision of the Purchase Agreement. As a result of this final settlement, the Company does not expect any future liability under the net asset adjustment or earn-out provisions under the Purchase Agreement.

        The results of operations of Born Free are included in the results of the Company from the date of acquisition forward. Related deal costs were expensed in the 2011 statement of operations.

        Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price for Born Free was assigned to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Approximately $16,400 and $11,532 were assigned to certain intangible assets and goodwill, respectively, based on independent valuations received by the Company. In addition, the estimated fair value of the contingent earn-out was valued at zero as of December 31, 2011 based on the Company's best estimate of the earn-out computation. The acquisition was recorded as of the closing date, reflecting the assets and liabilities of Born Free (the target), at their acquisition date fair values. Intangible assets that are identifiable were recognized separately from goodwill which was measured and recognized as the excess of the fair value of Born Free, as a whole, over the net amount of the recognized identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
