Edelman is handling the Chapter 11 filing of Tuesday Morning, Dallas-based off-price retailer, that is restructuring due to the "insurmountable financial hurdle" triggered by the forced prolonged closure of its 687 stores in 37 states due to COVID-19.
Tuesday Morning CEO Steve Becker said the "complete halt of store operations for two months put the company in a financial position that can be effectively addressed only through a reorganization in Chapter 11."
Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, Tuesday Morning earned $1.3M on $548M revenues for the six-month period ended Dec. 31.
The company plans to use the bankruptcy filing to realign its store footprint, a move that will shutter 230 of its stores over the summer.
As the country reopens, Tuesday Morning has resumed operaton of more than 80 percent of its high-performing stores.
Becker is "encouraged by the very positive performance of the business as we reopen our doors and welcome back our dedicated customers."
