After rough run, Kohl’s surges on potential takeover

June 8, 2022

The Wisconsin chain said it was in a three-week exclusive takeover period with the owner of Vitamin Shoppe for $60 per share. The potential buyer, the Franchise Group Inc., which focuses on franchise companies, will make final financing arrangements and complete due diligence before signing off on the deal during that period. Last month Kohl’s CEO Michelle Gass said that the company had received multiple offers from parties looking to buy the business. At the time the department store chain said that its board was working with Goldman Sachs to explore strategic alternatives, which had included engaging with 25 parties. The board had requested fully financed final bids to be submitted.
