The guys handed out sample sunglasses to the sharks for them to try on so they could have the full experience.

All of the Sun Staches products sell between $7.99 and $12.99, costing just $0.75 to $1.50 to manufacture. The sharks were impressed with these margins, but not all of them were convinced to make an investment.

With a gross revenue of $5.7 million during the year of filming, they were estimated to make $750,000 in earnings.

Kevin O’Leary raised some concerns about the Sun Staches imputed valuation of $6 million. He believed that they were only worth about $2.5 million.

The three entrepreneurs defended their valuation. They believed that they could license their product to bigger companies in the space, which they felt would make the brand worth the $6 million.

Unexcited about the product, Lori Greiner dropped out. Kevin went out next, disappointed that the guys wouldn’t adjust their valuation.

Robert Herjavec went out next for the same reason. Dan asked Mark Cuban if he would do a deal for $300,000 with 10% equity.

Daymond John entered the negotiations, suggesting that he could help with licensing and cost reduction. He offered $300,000 for 25% equity.

Dan asked Daymond if would join Mark for a deal at $300,000 for 12.5%. Mark said no and went out.

Then Dan countered Daymond at $300,000 for 15%. Daymond countered at $300,000 for 20%. Dan countered back at 17% equity and Daymond rejected that too.

Finally, the guys accepted his offer of $300,000 for 20%.  What became of this company? Keep reading our Sun Staches update to find out!

Research for our Sun Staches update revealed great news! It turns out that accepting Daymond’s offer was an extremely wise decision.

The company struck licensing deal gold with brands like Marvel, Disney, Universal, Nintendo, and many more. This boosted their annual gross revenues to an estimated $5 million a year. Products are available on the Sun Staches website and on Amazon.
