Teen retailer Claire's, famous as the place many youngsters got their ears pierced, is expected to come to market with an initial public offering just three years after emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
The pricing and timing of the IPO has not been set, but we'll update this page as information becomes available.
What we know about the Claire’s IPO
Claire's, now operated by Elliott Management and Monarch Alternative Capital, plans to invest more than $150 million in its business, including its management team, e-commerce platforms, retail foothold and more. But the retailer still carries more than $500 million in long-term debt and another $400 million derivative liability.
The fashion jewelry shop nearly doubled its sales year-over-year as of the first half of 2021 and posted a profit on its operations.
