Why Stage Stores closing matters

The retail community knew there would be retail fall-out from Covid-19. Retail stores have been suffering, and

Stage Stores has filed Chapter 11,

closing all its stores. The chain is being

put up for sale, in part or whole.

Stage operated stores under various names,

including Goody’s, Bealls, and Palais Royal.

However, you would not find these stores in

major metro markets across the country. Stage is well known for locating in the county seat of America’s small towns. Rural America needed

access to affordable clothing and department stores with multiple categories of products lines. As Stage Stores matured, it was finding its place in retailing as an off-price discount apparel store. Following in the success of TJ Maxx, Ross, and Burlington stores, Stage’s plan was to convert all stores to the Gordmans’s name and operate as an off-price fashion store. The store conversions were

being well received by their small-town audiences, but Covid-19 was more than they could handle. Texas will be the most affected by the closings, with 186 stores set to begin going-out-of-business sales. While 13 other states had between 20 to 40 stores, Texas has the most stores by far, with 4.5 million square feet.

Its too early to tell if a retailer

will step up and buy the store

locations or leases, but in today’s climate for new stores, it will be a

challenge finding a buyer. Adding to the difficulty is the number of

chain stores vying for small town America.

Measuring the effect on small towns can be difficult, but the first place it will show up is in the sales tax revenue. The loss of sales tax revenue can make a big difference in providing needed services to the community. Lacy Beasley, president of Retail Strategies, a consulting company for city development departments, had this to say on the planned closings:

“In rural communities across the country, Stage Stores and Gordmans are the top department store options. This will leave a large void in the

market if the real estate is not backfilled with

a strong soft goods replacement. There is still a large percentage of the population in these markets who prefer brick and mortar over online shopping. They will have to drive 30 minutes to an

hour to find similar inventory.”

    Stage Stores Adopts Benefitfocus HR INTOUCH MARKETPLACE

    September 25, 2014 Stage Stores Adopts Benefitfocus HR INTOUCH MARKETPLACE Leading neighborhood retailer to leverage Marketplace + Administration solution as part of retention and total compensation strategy CHARLESTON, S.C., Sept. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Benefitfocus, Inc. (NASDAQ: BNFT), a leading provider of cloud-based benefits software solutions, today announced that Stage Stores, Inc. has adopted Benefitfocus HR INTOUCH MARKETPLACE® to support its benefits administration strategy in light of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Stage Stores selected Benefitfocus because of the HR INTOUCH MARKETPLACE portal's ability to automate the transmission of data across multiple systems, which will facilitate ACA compliance checks and eliminate the need for manual updates. Headquartered in Houston, TX, Stage Stores operates nearly 850 department stores across 40 states under the Bealls, Goody's, Palais Royal, Peebles and Stage nameplates. The Texas-based retailer has approximately 14,500 total employees and 6,000 full-time employees. With the remaining workforce population made up of part-time and variable hour employees, Stage Stores is presented with the challenge of calculating look-back periods to comply with the ACA's Employer Shared Responsibility Provision. HR INTOUCH MARKETPLACE is designed to accommodate the reality that everyone is eligible for some type of benefit and can become eligible for employer-sponsored health plans based on the ACA's look-back provision. Through data integration and reporting capabilities, the portal provides access to tools for monitoring eligibility and notifying newly eligible employees of their enrollment options. "As a retailer operating primarily in small and mid-sized communities, part of our retention strategy is to provide benefits education that conveys the value we offer to employees," explained Cindy Kothmann, Vice President of Benefits, Compensation and HR Administration at Stage Stores.

    Exhibit 99 NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: Bob Aronson Vice President, Investor Relations 800-579-2302 ([email protected]) FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Stage Stores Reports February Sales Announces Participation at Bank of America Merrill Lynch 2011 Consumer Conference HOUSTON, TX, March 3, 2011 - Stage Stores, Inc. (NYSE: SSI) today reported that its total sales for the four week February period ended February 26, 2011 decreased 5.1% to $94 million from $99 million in the prior year four week period ended February 27, 2010. Comparable store sales decreased 7.2%. Andy Hall, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We were pleased with the way the business performed in the second half of the month, with comparable store sales up approximately 10%. Unfortunately, this was not enough to offset the weakness we experienced in the first half of February, as a result of extreme weather conditions in the center of the country, most notably Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri, which represent close to 51% of our comparable store sales base.” Mr. Hall concluded, “Our inventories are well managed and our underlying fundamental traffic trends remain solid. As a result, we are projecting a 1% to 3% increase in comparable store sales for the first quarter, and will provide additional guidance for the quarter and fiscal year in our fourth quarter 2010 earnings release next Tuesday.” Store Activity There were no store openings during February, while one store was closed as a result of the store’s roof collapsing, due to excessive weight from accumulated snow, and another store was closed due to smoke damage from a fire in a neighboring store.

    Exhibit 99.2 NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: Bob Aronson Vice President, Investor Relations 800-579-2302 ([email protected]) FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE STAGE STORES COMPLETES THE ACQUISITION OF B.C. MOORE & SONS, INC. HOUSTON, TX, February 27, 2006 - Stage Stores, Inc. (Nasdaq: STGS) today reported that it has completed its previously announced acquisition of privately held B.C. Moore & Sons, Inc. (“B.C. Moore”). In purchasing B.C.

Jim Scarborough, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Stage, commented, “We are pleased to have completed this acquisition so quickly, and we enthusiastically look forward to entering these new markets with our Peebles store format. Our new customers in these markets will enjoy our exceptional service, exciting brand names, merchandise selections, and value in easy-to-shop and conveniently located stores.” Stage Stores, Inc. brings nationally recognized brand name apparel, accessories, cosmetics and footwear for the entire family to small and mid-size towns and communities.

("Stage Stores" or the "Company") stock between 5/7/97 and 8/6/98 (the "Class Period"). Stage Stores operates hundreds of retail casual clothing stores in the mid and southwest. 2. In 1988, Stage Stores had been taken "private" in a leveraged buyout ("LBO") arranged and financed by two venture capital groups -- Bain Capital and Acadia (see ¶1118 and 19, infra). After Stage Stores went private, its business performed much worse than expected and one significant acquisition it made was a failure, making Stage Stores a very poor investment for Bain Capital and Acadia.
