muscleman Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 "According to the terms of their revolver they cannot close stores at this pace throughout the entire year. (they are limited to a specific number annually)." -ve covenant allows for 250 per quarter and 500 TTM (iirc prior revolver was 100) Even then the collateral agent will waive that covenant. Spin Yeah. 500 TTM is sufficient to move the ball fast enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muscleman Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 With this pace of closing, I expect another brutal quarter for Q1. The revenue will likely get a hit. I am curious if Eddie simply waited until these cash burning stores' leases to expire to close? He could have closed these stores 3-5 years earlier. People were saying that the stores were not aggressively closed because Eddie has to wait until RE value goes up. But that is for owned stores, not leased ones, right?

Well if you have a lease on the store. You need to pay the lease till it expires. The annual loss from the store may be same as or less than the annual lease payment. Just a guess.

Luke 532 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 It says it's owned by Baker and Baker. Not Kmart or SHLD. Good example of valuable real estate, though. Berkowitz has referenced tax assessment values as his method of a base-line valuation. Nice to see some more evidence that his estimates might be extremely conservative.
