Foreign Currency Translation	19. Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of Iconix Luxembourg and Red Diamond Holdings which are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, located in Luxembourg, is the Euro. However the companies have certain dollar denominated assets, in particular cash and notes receivable, that are maintained in U.S. Dollars, which are required to be revalued each quarter. Due to fluctuations in currency in FY 2016, FY 2015 and FY 2014, the Company recorded a $1.5 million currency translation gain, a $9.5 million currency translation gain and a $1.7 million currency translation loss, respectively, that is included in the consolidated statements of operations.

Our comprehensive income is primarily comprised of net income and foreign currency translation gain or loss. During FY 2016, FY 2015 and FY 2014, the Company recognized as a component of our comprehensive income (loss), a foreign currency translation loss of $7.6 million, a foreign currency translation loss of $36.0 million and a foreign currency translation loss of $40.7 million, respectively, due to changes in foreign exchange rates.
