  • The Downfall of Sears
    The Downfall of Sears Examining Sears’ decline from being the largest US retailer to bankruptcy Fall 2019 Jarett Bienenstock Ryan Fitzgerald Max Glasser Kwan Kim Professor Edward Altman Bankruptcy and Reorganization Table of Contents Executive Summary 2 The Rise and Gradual Decline of Sears 2 The Kmart Merger 3 The Eddie Lampert Years 5 Financial Engineering: Spin Offs 8 Financial Engineering: Loans From ESL 14 On The Cusp of Bankruptcy 15 Sears’ Bankruptcy 17 Could Sears’ Bankruptcy Have Been Predicted? 24 Transformco (a.k.a. “New Sears”) 25 Appendix 27 References 28 1 Executive Summary On October 15, 2018, Sears (the “Company”, or the “Debtor”) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, capping a fall from being the largest retailer in the US in the 1970s to a declining behemoth unable to successfully compete with big box stores and online retailers in the 2010s. The Company’s decline was exacerbated by a 2005 acquisition by Kmart, led by hedge fund manager Eddie Lampert. Lampert’s strategy of slashing capital expenditures, spinning off non-core assets, and raising the combined companies’ leverage to increase capital distributions to shareholders ultimately proved to be a losing formula. With limited liquidity and a heavy debt load, Sears was unable to make $134 million in debt payments due on October 15, 2018. While bankruptcy provided Sears with the opportunity to reduce its total debt and close unprofitable locations, the “new” Sears that emerged from bankruptcy in early 2019 with Eddie Lampert still at the helm continues to struggle, resulting in more store closures and questions as to how long the Company can fend off becoming the latest brick-and-mortar retailer to liquidate.

  • Chief Financial Officer Moves Q1 2010
    Chief Financial Officer Moves Q1 2010 Chief Financial Officer Moves is a quarterly series issued by Russell Reynolds Associates’ North American Financial Officers Practice representing a snapshot of CFO trends, expectations and moves within the Fortune 500. Looking Ahead • CFO Turnover Activity: While CFO turnover continues, the pace of turnover in Fortune 1000 companies has slowed dramatically over the past 12 months. It is likely not a big surprise to many of you, who have seen and experienced the turnover of the past several years, but there are very few roles that could maintain turnover rates in excess of 15% an annual basis. • Changes in the Financial Officers Marketplace: While we saw little demand in 2009 for changes in direct reports to the CFO, including Treasurer, Controller, FP&A, Internal Audit and IR, in the first few months of 2010 we have seen evidence that CFOs appear to be more confident about making necessary changes to their teams. We anticipate this trend will continue for the first half of the year, as the market clearly has some pent-up demand. • Private Equity Activity: Throughout 2009 we expected PE firms to accelerate making changes at the CFO level for their portfolio companies. However, the pace and severity of the downturn required many investment professionals to spend more time with their investments and, in effect, supplemented their finance organizations in the process and resulted in slower turnover for these companies. However, we are now at the point in the cycle that changes are being made and we are seeing a significant pick up in new CFO searches for these portfolio companies.

  • Inside Sears' Death Spiral: How an Iconic American Brand Has Been Driven to the Edge of Bankruptcy
    Inside Sears' death spiral: How an iconic American brand has been driven to the edge of bankruptcy HAYLEY PETERSON JAN. 8, 2017, 8:41 AM Seph Lawless; Skye Gould/Business Insider One morning in late 2015, on Sears' vast Illinois campus, more than a dozen employees huddled in a videoconference room on a floor dubbed "B6." There, two mid-level employees were preparing a presentation for the CEO, Eddie Lampert, when their boss rushed in with some last-minute advice. On a chart pad he wrote three words. "He looks at the presenters and says, 'Do not say these words to that guy,'" according to a former Sears executive who described the meeting to Business Insider. "That guy" meant Lampert, who would soon appear on a giant projector screen at the front of the room, beamed in live from a home office inside a $38 million Florida estate — 1,400 miles away from headquarters. The pad with the three words was out of sight of Lampert's video feed. One of the words on it was "consumer." The stakes were high. If any of those words were uttered in front of Lampert, the two presenters would "get shredded" by the CEO, whose frequent tirades had fostered a climate of fear among the company's most senior managers, said another person — this one a former vice president. These two and other executives say "consumer" can trigger Lampert. He wants employees to instead refer to shoppers as "members," which is his term for customers who are enrolled in Sears' Shop Your Way rewards program.
