Arkhouse then launched its proxy fight and put forward nine nominees to Macy's 15-person board. Turning the tideOther department store chains have faced challenges from activists in recent years, and even when those efforts fall short, the pressure can bring about sweeping changes. That includes Macy's locations with stronger sales as well as its two chains that have outperformed the namesake brand, higher-end department store chain Bloomingdale's and beauty chain Bluemercury. Arkhouse claims Macy's refused to engage with it, and Macy's rebuffed Arkhouse saying it didn't have the financing for the takeover it proposed. Arkhouse, for its part, has said it plans to keep Macy's stores open.

☆ Macy's settles proxy fight with activist Arkhouse, adds two directors
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-10 | by ( Rohan Goswami | In Rohangoswamicnbc | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

Department store Macy's on Wednesday said it had settled its proxy fight with an activist group led by Arkhouse Management, and that it would add two new directors to its 15-person board. The reshuffle moves Macy's closer to a deal that would take the 165-year-old department store private. Ric Clark, a former executive at Brookfield, and Rick Markee will join Macy's board effective immediately. Arkhouse first submitted an offer to take the retailer private in 2023. The investment-firm-turned-activist then launched a proxy fight at the company in February, putting up a nine-director slate.

☆ Nearly half of Levi's sales are happening online and in its shops, a shift as department stores fade
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-03 | by ( Gabrielle Fonrouge | In Gabrielle-Fonrouge | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +7 min

Excluding one-time costs related to Levi's restructuring, the company reported earnings per share of 26 cents, ahead of Wall Street's estimates. The sales slump was primarily attributed to a shift in Levi's wholesale orders, which boosted profits by about $100 million in the year-ago period. For the last couple of years, Levi's has been moving away from wholesalers and doing more of its sales through its own stores and website. If Macy's store closures or other challenges to department stores affects Levi's business, she expects direct-to-consumer sales will offset those losses. During the quarter, sales of items like denim skirts, dresses and tops were up 19% in Levi's direct-to-consumer channel, said Gass.

☆ Arkhouse bid for Macy's nears diligence, but activist to continue proxy fight
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-14 | by ( Rohan Goswami | In Rohangoswamicnbc | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

A bid from Arkhouse Management and Brigade Capital to take retailer Macy's private has moved closer to due diligence after weeks of delay, but the activist group plans to continue its proxy fight while negotiations progress. Macy's sent the activist a draft confidentiality agreement earlier this week, after months of meetings and engagements between the two sides, Arkhouse said in a proxy filing Thursday. The proxy filing and exhibits show that as the deadline to launch a proxy fight neared, Arkhouse asked Macy's in February to extend its nominating window to "avoid any heightened tension that may accompany" launching a rival slate. The two sides have been negotiating the terms of the agreement this week, the proxy filing shows. In light of the proxy fight and media reports, Gennette said Macy's board was "puzzled by your request for confidential treatment."

Cars sit parked in front of a Macy's store at Bay Fair Mall on February 27, 2024 in San Leandro, California. Arkhouse Management, a real-estate-focused investing firm said on Sunday it and Brigade Capital Management have raised their offer for Macy's after the department store chain rebuffed their prior proposal as too low. "The Macy's Inc Board will carefully review and evaluate the latest proposal," Macy's said in a separate statement. Like other legacy department store operators, Macy's has struggled to compete against younger, online competitors or peers with smaller brick-and-mortar footprints. This has given Arkhouse and Brigade an opening to put pressure on Macy's to explore a sale.

Macy's on Tuesday said sales fell nearly 2% in the holiday quarter, as the 166-year-old department store operator unveiled its strategy to get back to growth. Macy's plans to close about 150 unproductive locations and to prioritize investing in about 350 other namesake locations. In the fiscal year that starts in early 2025, Macy's said it expects low-single digit comparable sales growth on an annual basis, including owned, licensed and marketplace sales. The namesake store's comparable sales on an owned-plus-licensed basis dropped by 4.7%, as the women's shoes and cold weather apparel and accessories categories struggled. At Bloomingdale's, comparable sales declined 1.6% on an owned-plus-licensed basis, as the men's and designer handbag businesses came in soft.

Investment firm Arkhouse Management has launched a proxy fight at Macy's , nominating a slate of nine directors for election to the department store's board. Macy's on Tuesday confirmed that it had received notice of the nominations from Arkhouse, which made an unsolicited $21-a-share bid for the company in December. Macy's board rejected that $5.8 billion offer and questioned the status of Arkhouse's financing. Arkhouse managing partner Gavriel Kahane previously told CNBC that the firm's financing was committed, citing a "highly confident" letter from Jefferies, but said Macy's had not allowed due diligence to occur. Arkhouse had also intimated it would be willing to launch a proxy fight at the retailer.

New York CNN —Macy’s rejected an unsolicited $6 billion bid from an activist investor to take the famed department store private last month. Now, the activist group is taking another shot at Macy’s, launching a proxy fight to take control of the board. Last month, Macy’s announced it was laying off about 3.5% of its workforce, or roughly 2,350 employees. Macy’s said Tuesday it will evaluate Arkhouse’s proposed board candidates, but criticized Arkhouse and another activist investor, Brigade, in a statement. Arkhouse did not publicly disclose its plans for Macy’s, but analysts believed it would sell off Macy’s valuable real estate and perhaps take other actions, such as spinning off its e-commerce business.

Then Prime Minister Stephen Harper addresses supporters after he lost the federal election in Calgary, Alberta, October 19, 2015. An activist hedge fund chaired by former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper is pushing U.S. department store operator Kohl's to sell itself, according to people familiar with the matter. Kohl's rejected acquisition offers worth as much as $64 per share in 2022, when it also came under pressure from several activist shareholders to explore a sale. Kohl's was not available for comment and Vision One did not respond to requests for comment. The development makes Kohl's the second U.S. department store operator to come under investor pressure to sell itself in as many months.

As he prepares to take the reins as Macy’s chief executive on Sunday, Tony Spring has a tall order: He must contend with the existential crisis that mall-based department stores are facing to try to stay relevant in an increasingly e-commerce world. In December, an investor group submitted a bid that would take Macy’s private at a value of $5.8 billion. Mr. Spring, 58, has spent his career at Macy’s high-end store group, Bloomingdale’s. He started as an executive trainee in 1987 and rose through the ranks to become chief executive in 2014. He turned the chain into a “scrappy incubator” for ideas that were eventually brought over to Macy’s stores.

Arkhouse has the financing in place to take Macy's private at a bid of $5.8 billion, managing partner Gavriel Kahane told CNBC Thursday, but the activist investor has run into roadblocks without the department store retailer's cooperation on due diligence. Arkhouse has previously said it would take "all necessary steps" to acquire Macy's, including going directly to shareholders. Kahane's Arkhouse and Brigade Capital submitted an unsolicited bid to Macy's management in December to take the company private at $21 a share, a premium of more than 32%. Arkhouse also said it could raise its bid above the original $21-per-share offer, but only if the Macy's management was willing to sign a mutual non-disclosure agreement and permit diligence to begin. Macy's board rejected that offer on Sunday, saying in part that it believes it is "highly unlikely" Arkhouse and Brigade's proposed financing "could be successfully executed."

New York CNN —Macy’s has rejected a $5.8 billion offer to take the 165-year-old retailer private, announcing late Sunday that the “unsolicited proposal lacks compelling value.”Last month, Arkhouse Management, a real estate-focused investing firm, and Brigade Capital Management, a global asset manager, offered to buy the remaining Macy’s shares it doesn’t own at a 32% premium. The company first opened in 1858 and now operates about 500 Macy’s branded stores, as well as 55 of the more upscale Bloomingdale’s chain. Macy’s has attempted numerous strategies in recent years to revitalize its business, such as new brands and smaller stores, but the moves have not altered its long-term trajectory. Its stock price has dropped 75% from a peak of $73 a share in 2015. Since then, it has closed nearly 300 stores — almost one-third — leaving about 700 across its brands.
