Item 8.01. Other Events.

On August 23, 2016, Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), announced that, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Neoteric Cosmetics, Inc., it had entered into an amendment to its distribution agreement with Church & Dwight Co., Inc. to, among other things, extend the term of the existing agreement through December 31, 2017.  The announcement noted that, effective January 1, 2017, the Company will no longer distribute products to hair salons and distributors to hair salons.  Subsequently, the Company received several calls from investors regarding whether the Company would continue sales to beauty supply stores, such as Ulta Salon, Cosmetics & Fragrance, Inc. (“Ulta”), the Company’s largest customer.  This Current Report is being filed to confirm that Ulta and other beauty supply stores will continue to be covered by the extended distribution agreement and continue to be customers of the Company; provided, however, that the new Toppik line of products will not be distributed by the Company to Ulta.  The only customers that will no longer be covered effective January 1, 2017 by the extended distribution agreement will be hair salons and distributors to hair salons, which represented approximately 9.5% of Company’s net sales of Batiste Dry Shampoo for the first six months of 2016 and approximately 3.8% of the Company’s total net sales for the same period.
