Thread regarding Sears layoffs

FRESH EMAIL TO MANAGERS

Straight from the Top to FLS managers, minutes ago:

We wanted to provide you with a brief update on our restructuring process related to today’s deadline for qualified bids for Sears Holdings.

We have received several bids including one this afternoon from ESL Investments. In the coming days the Restructuring Committee of our Board of Directors will thoroughly review and evaluate all bids we have received. We will update you once a determination has been made on the next steps for Sears Holdings.

As always, we thank you for your continued support and hard work, especially during the busy holiday season. We know this process is difficult and that there are many distractions in the media, but we need to remain focused on serving our members. We appreciate all that you continue to do for Sears, our members, and each other.

Sincerely,

Rob Riecker, Chief Financial Officer

Leena Munjal, Chief Digital Officer

Gregory Ladley, President, Softlines

Office of the CEO

*Who else placed a bid besides Eddie?

According to Wall Street Journal a couple other bidders were liquidation companies interested in their assets- properties, SYW, Kenmore (I guess). They want to separate them and sell them off in chunks- kind of a faster version of what Eddie has been doing the last 14 years.

To the one that posted that the company is for sale on eBay......You're dumber than Eddie Lampert. Prove it. Give us a link.

Who wouldn't want the opportunity to lose half a billion dollars in six weeks, and that's including Black Friday sales. No one can transform a business quite like Eddie.

Sears is an opportunity for a canny investor to own one of America’s most iconic retailers for a fire sale price. The opportunity is doubtlessly proving tempting for many.

The company is for sale on eBay. Currently there are 3 bidders and the high bid is $ 18.34 by someone with the handle ilikeoldrelics.

Eddie's lawyers have really been getting their asses kicked in court for weeks now. They are not in control.

They said there were other bidders interested before the final bid today. Plus I'm pretty sure Eddie can do some back door dealings with other bidders.
