Everlast Worldwide Inc. (EVST) is no longer a publicly traded security, and the ticker has been retired from active U.S. exchange use for nearly two decades. The company, a Delaware corporation founded in the early twentieth century as the guardian of the Everlast boxing brand, completed a cash take-private by Sports Direct International plc in September 2007. The deal priced at $33.00 per share for an aggregate enterprise value of roughly $158.6 million.

Its final substantive filings are the fiscal 2006 annual report and the DEFM14A merger proxy, both submitted in the spring and summer of 2007. The deregistration and delisting notifications both landed in September of that year. The EVST ticker no longer maps to any active EDGAR filer, and the SEC's own company tickers file contains no entry for EVST.

This report documents the finding and contextualizes it against the last two substantive filings, so that any pipeline step keyed to EVST can be resolved with a deferral rather than a fabricated equity narrative.

The core identity facts are unambiguous. CIK 934795 maps to Everlast Worldwide Inc., a Delaware corporation headquartered in New York, which the EDGAR browse page renders under the Sporting and Recreational Goods family. The company's final fiscal year on EDGAR was 2006, and its final exchange listing was the Nasdaq Global Market. The non-affiliate float was valued at approximately $43.5 million as of mid-2006. No periodic report of any kind has been filed by CIK 934795 in the nearly two decades since the delisting. The ticker EVST is, as of this writing, unassigned in the SEC's live tickers file, and the ADVFN quote page for EVST on Nasdaq shows a zero last price with zero volume.
