SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE A — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization and business Lifetime Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) designs, sources and sells branded kitchenware, tableware and other products used in the home and markets its products under a number of brand names and trademarks, which are either owned or licensed by the Company or through retailers’ private labels. The Company markets and sells its products principally on a wholesale basis to retailers. The Company also markets and sells a limited selection of its products directly to consumers through its Pfaltzgraff, Mikasa, Fred and Friends, Built NY, Fitz and Floyd, Housewares Deals and Lifetime Sterling internet websites. Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-K. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The most significant of these estimates and assumptions relate to revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, reserves for sales returns and allowances and customer chargebacks, inventory mark-down provisions, impairment of tangible and intangible assets, stock based compensation expense, estimates for unpaid healthcare claims, derivative valuations, accruals related to the Company’s tax positions and tax valuation allowances. Although these and other estimates and assumptions are based on the best available information, actual results could be materially different from these estimates. Principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Foreign currency Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Revenues, costs and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange rates for the relevant period. Income and losses resulting from translation are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, including the unrealized gain or loss on the fair value of foreign exchange contracts not designated as hedges and the realized gain or loss on all foreign exchange contracts, whether or not designated as hedges, are recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency gain/loss included within selling, general and administrative expenses was a $3.0 million loss in 2017, $4.2 million gain in 2016 and a $714,000 loss in 2015. Revenue recognition The Company sells products wholesale, to retailers and distributors, and retail, directly to consumers. Wholesale sales and retail direct sales are recognized when title passes to the customer, which is primarily at the shipping point for wholesale sales and upon delivery to the customer for retail direct sales. Shipping and handling fees that are billed to customers in sales transactions are included in net sales and amounted to $2.3 million in 2017, $2.6 million in 2016 and $2.4 million in 2015. Net sales exclude taxes that are collected from customers and remitted to the taxing authorities. The Company offers various sales incentives and promotional programs to its customers from time to time in the normal course of business. These incentives and promotions typically include arrangements such as cooperative advertising, buydowns, volume rebates and discounts. These arrangements and an estimate of sales returns are reflected as reductions in net sales in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Cost of sales Cost of sales consist primarily of costs associated with the production and procurement of product, inbound freight costs, purchasing costs, royalties and other product procurement related charges. Distribution expenses Distribution expenses consist primarily of warehousing expenses and freight-out Freight-out In 2016, the Company identified and corrected an error in the accumulated depreciation balance relating to certain leasehold improvements at one of its U.S. warehouses. Accordingly, distribution expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 includes $1.2 million of additional depreciation expense to properly reflect the accumulated depreciation balance of these assets as of December 31, 2016. Advertising expenses Advertising expenses are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Advertising expenses were $3.4 million, $3.7 million and $3.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Accounts receivable The Company periodically reviews the collectability of its accounts receivable and establishes allowances for estimated losses that could result from the inability of its customers to make required payments. A considerable amount of judgment is required to assess the ultimate realization of these receivables including assessing the initial and on-going However, in certain cases the Company does not have a formal contract and, therefore, customer deductions are non-contractual. non-contractual The sale of accounts receivable, under the Company’s Receivable Purchase Agreement with HSBC, are reflected as a reduction of accounts receivable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at the time of sale and any related expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Inventory Inventory consists principally of finished goods sourced from third-party suppliers. Inventory also includes finished goods, work in process and raw materials related to the Company’s manufacture of sterling silver products. Inventory is priced using the lower of cost (first-in, first-out Property and equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost. Property and equipment, other than leasehold improvements, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Building and improvements are being depreciated over 30 years and machinery, furniture and equipment over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Advances paid towards the acquisition of property and equipment and the cost of property and equipment not ready for use before the end of the period are classified as construction in progress. Cash equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Concentration of credit risk The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are potentially subject to concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains cash with several financial institutions that, in some cases, is in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are limited due to the large number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base. During the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, Wal-Mart Fair value measurements Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Fair value of financial instruments The Company determined that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of their short-term nature. The Company determined that the carrying amounts of borrowings outstanding under its Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan approximate fair value since such borrowings bear interest at variable market rates. Derivatives The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging Goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but, instead, are subject to an annual impairment assessment. Additionally, if events or conditions were to indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable, the Company would evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment at that time. As it relates to the goodwill assessment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step Intangibles – Goodwill and Other two-step two-step two-step Long-lived assets, including intangible assets deemed to have finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, among other conditions, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated declines in revenue or operating profit or material adverse changes in the business climate that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may be impaired. When impairment indicators are present, the recoverability of the asset is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company accounts for foreign income taxes based upon anticipated reinvestment of profits into respective foreign tax jurisdictions. The Company applies the authoritative guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the Company’s financial statements . more-likely-than-not Share-based compensation The Company accounts for its share-based compensation arrangements in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation”, which requires the measurement of compensation expense for all share-based compensation granted to employees and non-employee The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of its stock options. The Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility of the Company’s common stock and the risk-free interest rate. Changes in these subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate of the Company’s stock options on the date of the option grant. Performance share awards are initially valued at the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant. Each performance award represents the right to receive up to 150% of the target number of shares of common stock. The number of shares of common stock earned will be determined based on the attainment of specified performance goals by the end of the performance period, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Compensation expense for performance awards is recognized over the vesting period, and will vary based on remeasurement during the performance period. If the performance metrics are not probable of achievement during the performance period, compensation expense is reversed. The awards are forfeited if the performance metrics are not achieved as of the end of the performance period. The performance share awards vest at the end of a three year period, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The Company bases the estimated fair value of restricted stock awards on the date of grant. The estimated fair value is determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares awarded. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Employee healthcare The Company self-insures certain portions of its health insurance plan. The Company maintains an accrual for estimated unpaid claims and claims incurred but not yet reported (“IBNR”). Although management believes that it uses the best information available to estimate IBNR claims, actual claims may vary significantly from estimated claims. Restructuring expenses Costs associated with restructuring activities are recorded at fair value when a liability has been incurred. A liability has been incurred at the point of closure for any remaining operating lease obligations and at the communication date for severance. In 2016, to reduce costs and achieve synergies, the Company began the process of integrating its legal entities operating in Europe.

Annual indefinite-lived trade name impairment test In 2017, the Company performed quantitative impairment test for its indefinite-lived trade names which involved the assessment of the fair market values of the Company’s indefinite-lived trade names based on Level 3 unobservable inputs, using a relief from royalty approach, assuming a discount rate of 16.9-17.7% 2.5%-3%. The For the Company’s 2016 and 2015 annual impairment tests for its indefinite-lived trade names as of October 1, 2016 and 2015, the Company elected to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair values of the Company’s indefinite-lived trade names were less than the carrying values. The Company considered events and circumstances that could affect the significant inputs used to determine the fair values of the indefinite-lived trade names. Based on the qualitative assessment, the Company determined it was not more likely than not that the fair values of the Company’s indefinite-lived trade names were less than the carrying values as of October 1, 2016 and 2015. Annual goodwill impairment test The Company bypassed the optional qualitative impairment analysis for its three reporting units with goodwill for its October 1, 2017 impairment test. Accordingly, the first step of the two step goodwill impairment test, as described above, was performed. Under the first step, the estimated fair value of each of the reporting units was determined using the income approach and market approach. The significant assumptions used under the income approach, or discounted cash flow method, are projected net sales, projected earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), terminal growth rates, and the cost of capital. Projected net sales, projected EBITDA and terminal growth rates were determined to be significant assumptions because they are three primary drivers of the projected cash flows in the discounted cash flow fair value model. Cost of capital was also determined to be a significant assumption as it is the discount rate used to calculate the current fair value of those projected cash flows. Under the income approach, the resultant estimated fair value of the three reporting units exceeded their carrying value as of October 1, 2017. As of October 1, 2016, the fair value of the Creative Tops reporting unit, which carried goodwill of $2.1 million, was approximately 3% below its carrying value. In 2016 the Company performed the second step of the impairment test by estimating the fair value of the assets and liabilities to determine the implied fair value of goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill was determined to be greater than the carrying value and no impairment charge was recorded. Also, as of October 1, 2016, the excess of fair value of the Kitchen Craft reporting unit, which carried goodwill of $9.7 million, was approximately 3% over its carrying value. As of October 1, 2017, the fair values of the Creative Tops and Kitchen Craft reporting units both exceeded their respective carrying values. Management’s projections used to estimate the cash flows included increasing net sales and operational improvements designed to reduce costs at the Company’s international reporting units. The excess fair value calculated in 2017 was driven by realized cost savings and, to a larger extent, future cost savings from the combination of the operations expected to be completed in the near term. The planned cost savings are in line with that of a market participant. Changes in any of the significant assumptions used in the valuation of the Company’s reporting units can materially affect the expected cash flows, and such impacts can result in the requirement to proceed to the second step of the test and potentially a material non-cash As of December 31, 2017, the Company assessed the carrying value of goodwill and determined based on qualitative factors, no impairment existed. |

DEBT | NOTE F — DEBT Credit Agreement In January 2014, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which has been amended, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Co-Collateral Co-Collateral At December 31, 2017 and 2016, under the Revolving Credit Facility, borrowings outstanding were $94.7 million and $86.2 million, respectively. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, open letters of credit were $3.2 million and $2.4 million, respectively and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $58.0 million and $76.5 million, respectively. The borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility depends, in part, on eligible levels of accounts receivable and inventory, each of which fluctuates based upon the seasonality of the business, and certain trademark values, based upon periodic appraisals. Therefore, the actual borrowing capacity may be less than the $175.0 million commitment. The Company classifies a portion of the Revolving Credit Facility as a current liability if the Company’s intent and ability is to repay the loan from cash flows from operations which are expected to occur within the next 12 months. Repayments and borrowings under the facility can vary significantly from planned levels based on cash flow needs and general economic conditions. The Company expects that it will continue to borrow and repay funds, subject to availability, under the facility based on working capital and other corporate needs. The Company’s payment obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are unconditionally guaranteed by each of its existing U.S. subsidiaries and will be unconditionally guaranteed by each of its future U.S. subsidiaries. Certain payment obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are also direct obligations of its foreign subsidiary borrowers designated as such under the Credit Agreement and, subject to limitations on such guaranties, are guaranteed by the foreign subsidiary borrowers, as well as by the Company. The obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Facility and any hedging arrangements and cash management services and the guarantees by its domestic subsidiaries in respect of those obligations are secured by substantially all of the assets and stock (but in the case of foreign subsidiaries, limited to 65% of the capital stock in first-tier foreign subsidiaries and not including the stock of subsidiaries of such first-tier foreign subsidiaries) owned by the Company and the U.S. subsidiary guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. Such security interests consist of a first-priority lien, subject to certain permitted liens, with respect to the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries pledged as collateral in favor of lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, $0 and $9.5 million, respectively, was outstanding under the Term Loan and unamortized debt issuance costs were $0 and $157,000, respectively. In April 2017, the Company repaid the $7.0 million outstanding balance under the Term Loan. In connection therewith, the Company wrote-off wrote-off Interest rates on outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2017 ranged from 2.5% to 5.5%. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Credit Agreement provides for customary restrictions and events of default. Restrictions include limitations on additional indebtedness, acquisitions, investments and payment of dividends, among other things. Further, the Credit Agreement provides that at any time any Term Loan is outstanding or at any time no Term Loan is outstanding and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is less than $17.5 million and continuing until availability of at least $20.0 million is maintained for three consecutive months, the Company is required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20 to 1.00 for each of four consecutive fiscal quarter periods. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as of December 31, 2017 the maximum additional permitted indebtedness other than certain subordinated indebtedness was $58.0 million. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of the Credit Agreement at December 31, 2017. In August 2016, the Company amended the Credit Agreement to, among other things, allow the sale of certain accounts receivable by the Company to other financial institutions (subject to the approval of the Credit Agreement’s administrative agent) and revise the definition of EBITDA to provide that non-recurring Other Credit Agreements A subsidiary of the Company has a credit facility (“HSBC Facility” or “Short term loan”) with HSBC Bank (China) Company Limited, Shanghai Branch (“HSBC”) for up to RMB 18.0 million ($2.8 million). The HSBC Facility is subject to annual renewal and may be used to fund general working capital needs of the Company’s subsidiary which is a trading company in the People’s Republic of China. Borrowings under the HSBC Facility are guaranteed by the Company and are granted at the sole discretion of HSBC. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, RMB 0.5 million ($69,000) and RMB 0.8 million ($113,000), respectively, was outstanding under the HSBC Facility.

The Plan authorizes the Board of Directors of the Company, or a duly appointed committee thereof, to issue incentive stock options, non-qualified Stock options A summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information for the three years ended December 31, 2017, is as follows: Options Weighted- Weighted- Aggregate Options outstanding at December 31, 2014 2,326,627 $ 14.19 Grants 89,600 13.99 Exercises (110,375 ) 8.84 Cancellations (37,750 ) 15.57 Expirations (25,900 ) 26.60 Options outstanding at December 31, 2015 2,242,202 14.28 Grants 66,850 15.44 Exercises (272,325 ) 9.01 Cancellations (30,750 ) 15.39 Expirations (230,577 ) 27.16 Options outstanding at December 31, 2016 1,775,400 13.44 Grants 125,750 17.38 Exercises (300,000 ) 11.34 Cancellations (45,700 ) 16.40 Expirations (99,250 ) 20.40 Options outstanding at December 31, 2017 1,456,200 13.64 4.6 $ 5,019,000 Options exercisable at December 31, 2017 1,250,673 $ 13.05 4.0 $ 4,923,000 The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax in-the-money in-the-money The total intrinsic values of those stock options that were exercised in the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 were $2,071,000, $1,848,000 and $639,000, respectively. The intrinsic value of a stock option that is exercised is calculated at the date of exercise. Total unrecognized stock option compensation expense at December 31, 2017, before the effect of income taxes, was $1.0 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The Company values stock options using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model, as well as other available models, was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility and risk-free interest rate. Because the Company’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates of the Company’s stock options. The weighted-average per share grant date fair value of stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 was $6.37, $5.43 and $4.68, respectively. The fair values for these stock options were estimated at the dates of grant using the following weighted-average assumptions: 2017 2016 2015 Historical volatility 39 % 39 % 39 % Expected term (years) 6.0 6.0 5.2 Risk-free interest rate 1.97 % 1.37 % 1.67 % Expected dividend yield 0.98 % 1.10 % 1.18 % Restricted Stock A summary of the Company’s restricted stock activity and related information for the three years ended December 31, 2017 is as follows: Restricted Weighted- Non-vested 26,511 $ 15.86 Grants 100,073 14.78 Vested (24,649 ) 15.97 Cancellations (500 ) 14.84 Non-vested 101,435 14.77 Grants 109,170 15.64 Vested (46,306 ) 14.79 Cancellations (2,475 ) 14.93 Non-vested 161,824 15.35 Grants 133,352 18.32 Vested (69,795 ) 15.39 Cancellations (6,064 ) 16.07 Non-vested 219,317 $ 17.12 Total unrecognized compensation expense remaining $ 2,932,000 Weighted-average years expected to be recognized over 2.6 The total fair value of restricted stock that vested during the year ended December 31, 2017 was $1.3 million. Performance shares Each performance award represents the right to receive up to 150% of the target number of shares of common stock. The number of shares of common stock earned will be determined based on the attainment of specified performance goals at the end of the performance period, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The shares are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.

The Company recognized total stock compensation expense of $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, of which $1.1 million represents stock option compensation expense and $2.3 million represents restricted stock and performance based compensation expense. The Company recognized total stock compensation expense of $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, of which $1.4 million represents stock option compensation expense, $1.5 million represents restricted stock, including restricted stock granted to directors and performance based compensation expense, and $32,000 represents stock awards.

INCOME PER COMMON SHARE | NOTE I — INCOME PER COMMON SHARE Basic income per common share has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding. Diluted income per common share adjusts net income and basic income per common share for the effect of all potentially dilutive shares of the Company’s common stock. The calculations of basic and diluted income per common share for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, are as follows: 2017 2016 2015 (in thousands - except per share amounts) Net income – Basic and Diluted $ 2,154 $ 15,720 $ 12,278 Weighted-average shares outstanding – Basic 14,505 14,174 13,850 Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options and other stock awards 450 375 416 Weighted-average shares outstanding – Diluted 14,955 14,549 14,266 Basic income per common share $ 0.15 $ 1.11 $ 0.89 Diluted income per common share $ 0.14 $ 1.08 $ 0.86 The computations of diluted income per common share for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 excludes 1,190,261, 1,335,113 and 1,467,857, respectively, related to options to purchase shares and other stock awards.

The Tax Act revises the U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, adopting a quasi-territorial income tax system and imposing a one-time Due to the complexities involved in the accounting for the Tax Act, on December, 22, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 118 was issued to provide guidance to companies that have not yet completed their accounting for the Tax Act in the period of enactment. SAB 118 provides that the Company include in its financial statements a reasonable estimate of the impact of the Tax Act on earnings to the extent such estimate has been determined. Accordingly, the U.S. provision for income tax for 2017 is based on the reasonable estimate guidance provided by SAB 118. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company accrued $338,000 of tax expense for the Tax Act’s one-time one-time For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company accrued $3.0 million in provisional expense related to the net change in deferred tax assets stemming from the Tax Act’s reduction of the U.S. federal tax rate from 35% to 21%. The Tax Act also includes a provision to tax global intangible low-taxed Pursuant to the SAB 118, the Company is allowed a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the Tax Act to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. The Company will continue to calculate the impact of the U.S. Tax Act and will record any resulting tax adjustments during 2018. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred income tax assets are as follows: December 31, 2017 2016 (in thousands) Deferred income tax assets: Deferred rent expense $ 2,212 $ 3,706 Stock options 2,903 4,593 Inventory 970 1,190 Operating loss carry-forward 4,114 2,568 Accounts receivable allowances 264 463 Accrued compensation 623 944 Depreciation and amortization 247 — Other 1,882 2,784 Total deferred income tax assets $ 13,215 $ 16,248 Significant components of the Company’s net deferred income tax asset (liability) are as follows: December 31, 2017 2016 (in thousands) Deferred income tax liabilities: Depreciation and amortization $ — $ (1,268 ) Intangibles (8,732 ) (9,815 ) Equity in earnings (56 ) 24 Total deferred income tax liabilities (8,788 ) (11,059 ) Net deferred income tax asset 4,427 5,189 Valuation allowance (3,024 ) (2,396 ) Net deferred income tax asset $ 1,403 $ 2,793 The Company has generated various state net operating loss carryforwards of which, $13.0 million remained at December 31, 2017 that begin to expire in 2026 .The Company has net operating losses in foreign jurisdictions of $10.6 million at December 31, 2017 that begin to expire in 2020. The valuation allowance as of December 31, 2017 increased from the prior year primarily due to foreign net operating losses that the Company does not believe will more likely than not be realized. The provision for income taxes (before equity in earnings) differs from the amounts computed by applying the applicable federal statutory rates as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Provision for federal income taxes at the statutory rate 35.0 % 35.0 % 35.0 % Increases (decreases): State and local income taxes, net of Federal income tax benefit 5.9 3.6 5.3 Foreign rate differences 8.0 (7.9 ) (8.6 ) Non-deductible 3.7 3.4 5.5 Tax Act- 27.7 — — Tax Act- 3.1 — — Other 0.4 (2.1 ) (1.0 ) Provision for income taxes 83.8 % 32.0 % 36.2 % The estimated values of the Company’s gross uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 are liabilities of $161,000, $109,000 and $157,000, respectively, and consist of the following: Year Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 (in thousands) Balance at January 1 $ (109 ) $ (157 ) $ (572 ) Additions based on tax positions related to the current year (82 ) — (15 ) Reduction for tax positions of prior years 30 — — Settlements — 48 430 Balance at December 31 $ (161 ) $ (109 ) $ (157 ) The Company had approximately $24,000 and $29,000, net of federal and state tax benefit, accrued at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for the payment of interest. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties is to record such items as a component of the provision for income taxes. If the Company’s tax positions are ultimately sustained, the Company’s liability, including interest, would be reduced by $182,000, all of which would impact the Company’s tax provision. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates its tax positions and revises its estimates accordingly. The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that $32,000 of its tax positions will be resolved within the next twelve months. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the years prior to 2014. The Company has identified the following jurisdictions as “major” tax jurisdictions: U.S. Federal, California, Massachusetts, Georgia, Illinois, New York, New Jersey and the United Kingdom. At December 31, 2017, the periods subject to examination by the Company’s major state jurisdictions are generally for the years ended 2013 through 2016. |

BUSINESS SEGMENTS | NOTE K BUSINESS SEGMENTS Segment information The Company has three reportable segments, U.S. Wholesale, International and Retail Direct. The U.S. Wholesale segment includes the Company’s primary domestic business that designs, markets and distributes its products to retailers and distributors. The International Segment consists of certain business operations conducted outside the U.S. The Retail Direct segment is that in which the Company markets and sells a limited selection of its products to consumers through its Pfaltzgraff, Mikasa, Fred and Friends, Built NY, Fitz and Floyd, Housewares Deals and Lifetime Sterling websites. The Company has segmented its operations to reflect the manner in which management reviews and evaluates the results of its operations. While the three segments distribute similar products, the segments have been distinct due to the different methods the Company uses to sell, market and distribute the products. Management evaluates the performance of the U.S. Wholesale, International and Retail Direct segments based on net sales and income (loss) from operations. Such measures give recognition to specifically identifiable operating costs such as cost of sales, distribution expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Certain general and administrative expenses, such as senior executive salaries and benefits, stock compensation, director fees and accounting, legal and consulting fees, are not allocated to the specific segments and are reflected as unallocated corporate expenses.

(“WSPR”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, operates a manufacturing facility in San Germán, Puerto Rico that is leased from the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (“PRIDCO”). In March 2008, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) announced that the San Germán Ground Water Contamination site in Puerto Rico (the “Site”) had been added to the Superfund National Priorities List due to contamination present in the local drinking water supply. In May 2008, WSPR received from the EPA a Notice of Potential Liability and Request for Information Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. Sections 9607(a) and 9604(e) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). In July 2011, WSPR received a letter from the EPA requesting access to the property that it leases from PRIDCO to conduct an environmental investigation, and the Company granted such access. In February 2013, the EPA requested access to conduct a further environmental investigation at the property. PRIDCO agreed to such access and the Company consented. EPA conducted a further investigation during 2013 and, in April 2015, notified the Company and PRIDCO that the results from vapor intrusion sampling may warrant implementation of measures to mitigate potential exposure to sub-slab sub-surface OU-1, in-situ in-situ Accordingly, based on the above uncertainties and variables, it is not possible at this time for the Company to estimate its share of liability, if any, related to this matter. However, in the event of one or more adverse determinations related to this matter, it is possible that the ultimate liability resulting from this matter and the impact on the Company’s results of operations could be material. The Company is, from time to time, involved in other legal proceedings. The Company believes that other current litigation is routine in nature and incidental to the conduct of the Company’s business and that none of this litigation, individually or collectively, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

Net sales exclude taxes that are collected from customers and remitted to the taxing authorities. The Company offers various sales incentives and promotional programs to its customers from time to time in the normal course of business. These incentives and promotions typically include arrangements such as cooperative advertising, buydowns, volume rebates and discounts. These arrangements and an estimate of sales returns are reflected as reductions in net sales in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. |
Cost of sales | Cost of sales Cost of sales consist primarily of costs associated with the production and procurement of product, inbound freight costs, purchasing costs, royalties and other product procurement related charges. |
Distribution expenses | Distribution expenses Distribution expenses consist primarily of warehousing expenses and freight-out Freight-out In 2016, the Company identified and corrected an error in the accumulated depreciation balance relating to certain leasehold improvements at one of its U.S. warehouses.

Inventory also includes finished goods, work in process and raw materials related to the Company’s manufacture of sterling silver products. Inventory is priced using the lower of cost (first-in, first-out |
Property and equipment | Property and equipment Property and equipment is stated at cost. Property and equipment, other than leasehold improvements, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Building and improvements are being depreciated over 30 years and machinery, furniture and equipment over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Advances paid towards the acquisition of property and equipment and the cost of property and equipment not ready for use before the end of the period are classified as construction in progress. |
Cash equivalents | Cash equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. |

Fair value measurements | Fair value measurements Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures |
Fair value of financial instruments | Fair value of financial instruments The Company determined that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of their short-term nature. The Company determined that the carrying amounts of borrowings outstanding under its Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan approximate fair value since such borrowings bear interest at variable market rates. |
Derivatives | Derivatives The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging |
Goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets | Goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but, instead, are subject to an annual impairment assessment. Additionally, if events or conditions were to indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable, the Company would evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment at that time. As it relates to the goodwill assessment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step Intangibles – Goodwill and Other two-step two-step two-step Long-lived assets, including intangible assets deemed to have finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, among other conditions, cash flow deficits, historic or anticipated declines in revenue or operating profit or material adverse changes in the business climate that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may be impaired. When impairment indicators are present, the recoverability of the asset is measured by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. |
Income taxes | Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company accounts for foreign income taxes based upon anticipated reinvestment of profits into respective foreign tax jurisdictions. The Company applies the authoritative guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the Company’s financial statements . more-likely-than-not |
Share-based compensation | Share-based compensation The Company accounts for its share-based compensation arrangements in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation”, which requires the measurement of compensation expense for all share-based compensation granted to employees and non-employee The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of its stock options. The Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility of the Company’s common stock and the risk-free interest rate. Changes in these subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate of the Company’s stock options on the date of the option grant. Performance share awards are initially valued at the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant. Each performance award represents the right to receive up to 150% of the target number of shares of common stock. The number of shares of common stock earned will be determined based on the attainment of specified performance goals by the end of the performance period, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Compensation expense for performance awards is recognized over the vesting period, and will vary based on remeasurement during the performance period. If the performance metrics are not probable of achievement during the performance period, compensation expense is reversed. The awards are forfeited if the performance metrics are not achieved as of the end of the performance period. The performance share awards vest at the end of a three year period, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The Company bases the estimated fair value of restricted stock awards on the date of grant. The estimated fair value is determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant multiplied by the number of shares awarded. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. |
Employee healthcare | Employee healthcare The Company self-insures certain portions of its health insurance plan. The Company maintains an accrual for estimated unpaid claims and claims incurred but not yet reported (“IBNR”). Although management believes that it uses the best information available to estimate IBNR claims, actual claims may vary significantly from estimated claims. |
Restructuring expenses | Restructuring expenses Costs associated with restructuring activities are recorded at fair value when a liability has been incurred. A liability has been incurred at the point of closure for any remaining operating lease obligations and at the communication date for severance. In 2016, to reduce costs and achieve synergies, the Company began the process of integrating its legal entities operating in Europe. During the 2017, the Company recorded $1.0 million of restructuring expense related to the execution of this plan, primarily related to severance. The Company does not expect to incur additional restructuring charges in 2018 related to this integration; however additional restructuring charges may be incurred in the future as additional integration initiatives are undertaken. In December 2015, the Company commenced an in-depth As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, $0 and $525,000 was accrued related to severance and consulting expenses from the restructuring plans. |
