Bankrupt Claire's to keep around 800 stores open after selling North American business for $104M
Jewelry retailer Claire's said Wednesday it would sell its North American business to private equity firm Ames Watson for $104 million in cash, in a deal that will keep at least 795 retail locations in business. The sale agreement will 'allow the Claire's brand to remain a prominent retailer for teens, tweens, and young girls around the world,' Claire's said in a court document filed on Wednesday. Ames Watson, a private holding company that owns athletic apparel brands including Champion Teamwear and Lids, is acquiring Claire's brand and up to 950 Claire's stores, according to court documents. Advertisement Ames Watson, a private holding company that owns athletic apparel brands including Champion Teamwear and Lids, is acquiring Claire's brand and up to 950 Claire's stores, according to court documents. JHVEPhoto – Claire's has halted 'going out of business sales' at all stores that could be sold, but it will continue liquidation sales at other locations. Claire's, which sells earrings and fashion accessories for teens and young girls, filed for bankruptcy in Delaware earlier this month with more than $690 million in debt. The company, which previously filed for bankruptcy in 2018, operates more than 2,300 stores across 17 countries in North America and Europe. Advertisement Ames Watson co-founder Lawrence Berger said in a statement that the firm was 'committed to investing in its (Claire's) future by preserving a significant retail footprint across North America.' Ames Watson will also provide noncash considerations as part of the sale, such as taking on liabilities owed to Claire's vendors and landlords, continuing to employ current retail staff at acquired Claire's stores, and extending $36 million in credit that the bankrupt company can use to address some of its pre-existing debt. Claire's will seek approval of the sale on Thursday at a court hearing in Wilmington, Del.

LZB Q2 Deep Dive: Margin Pressure Persists as Expansion Continues Amid Soft Demand
Furniture company La-Z-Boy (NYSE:LZB) met Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q2 CY2025, but sales were flat year on year at $492.2 million. On the other hand, next quarter's revenue guidance of $520 million was less impressive, coming in 1.6% below analysts' estimates. Its non-GAAP profit of $0.47 per share was 10.8% below analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy LZB? Find out in our full research report (it's free). La-Z-Boy (LZB) Q2 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $492.2 million vs analyst estimates of $490.4 million (flat year on year, in line) Adjusted EPS: $0.47 vs analyst expectations of $0.53 (10.8% miss) Adjusted EBITDA: $34.82 million vs analyst estimates of $39.25 million (7.1% margin, 11.3% miss) Revenue Guidance for Q3 CY2025 is $520 million at the midpoint, below analyst estimates of $528.4 million Operating Margin: 4.5%, down from 6.5% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $1.61 billion StockStory's Take La-Z-Boy's second quarter was met with a significant negative market reaction, reflecting investor concerns around flat sales and profitability pressures. While management highlighted modest growth in both Retail and Wholesale segments, ongoing weakness in store traffic and a notable decline in the Joybird business weighed on results. CEO Melinda Whittington described the consumer environment as 'increasingly challenged,' attributing margin compression to new store investments and promotional activity. The company acknowledged that 'de-leverage in same-store sales and investment in new store openings' drove down operating margins. Looking ahead, La-Z-Boy's cautious guidance incorporates persistent macroeconomic headwinds and a consumer landscape that management expects to remain volatile. Whittington emphasized the need for prudent operational adjustments, stating, 'We're navigating prudently as we go forward,' but she reiterated commitment to growth initiatives such as the expansion of company-owned stores and transformation of the distribution network. CFO Taylor Luebke added that margin improvement from these investments will take time, with 'modest drag on adjusted operating margins to continue for the first 2 years' before benefits are realized. Key Insights from Management's Remarks Management attributed the quarter's challenges to weak consumer demand, margin pressure from new store openings, and the impact of ongoing investments in distribution transformation. Retail traffic remains soft: Despite growth from new and acquired stores, management acknowledged that same-store sales and overall store traffic continued to lag, citing a 'choppy and uneven' consumer environment that affected both volume and margin in the Retail segment. Wholesale gains offset by international: Wholesale sales growth was primarily driven by core North American operations, but this was partially offset by weakness in the international business, which is undergoing a significant customer transition impacting segment results. Joybird underperformance: The Joybird segment, which targets a younger, direct-to-consumer audience, experienced a 20% drop in delivered sales as online demand remained weak, though physical stores outperformed digital channels. Distribution transformation underway: La-Z-Boy began a multi-year project to consolidate its distribution network, launching a new Arizona hub. While the initiative aims to eventually reduce costs and double delivery radius, management warned of short-term inefficiencies and costs during the transition. Promotional activity increases: The company increased discounting in the Casegoods segment and worked through non-performing inventory, a move management described as 'transitory' but necessary to optimize store assortments ahead of the key holiday season. Drivers of Future Performance La-Z-Boy's outlook hinges on execution of cost-saving initiatives, continued retail expansion, and navigating persistent demand headwinds. Consumer demand uncertainty: Management anticipates that volatility in consumer confidence and discretionary spending will persist, making near-term revenue growth difficult and requiring ongoing marketing efforts to stimulate store traffic. Margin expansion delayed: CFO Taylor Luebke stated margin benefits from the new distribution model will not materialize until year three of the project, with transition inefficiencies expected to pressure profitability in the short term. Retail and geographic expansion: La-Z-Boy plans to accelerate company-owned store openings, including a large Southeast acquisition, which is expected to bolster long-term sales but may initially weigh on margins due to start-up costs and slower store maturation. Catalysts in Upcoming Quarters In the coming quarters, our analysts will focus on (1) the pace and profitability of new store openings and the integration of the Southeast acquisition, (2) early evidence of cost savings or operational improvements from the distribution network transformation, and (3) stabilization or recovery in the Joybird segment's sales and profitability. Execution of these initiatives will be crucial for La-Z-Boy's ability to offset a soft consumer environment and lay groundwork for future growth. La-Z-Boy currently trades at $33.90, down from $39.13 just before the earnings. In the wake of this quarter, is it a buy or sell? Find out in our full research report (it's free).
