Kohls steigert Umsatz und Gewinn,übertrifft Erwart
Two retail giants leaned into the same strategy: Target was a big winner while Amazon failed. But the online-retail giant might have a way to fix that.

am 07.09.2022 ist. Habe einen 40er Covered Call auf KSS am Laufen (16.09.22).
Außer der Kurs steigt jetzt vorher massiv über 40 und der Käufer des Calls zieht die Aktien raus.
Aber nachdem ich als EK (inkl.Prämien) 32$ habe, bin ich sehr entspannt.
Die 50$ Dividenden würden den Bock auch nicht mehr fett machen. ;-)
Durchschnittliche EPS-Schätzung: 1.08
Höchste Schätzung: 1.51
Niedrigste Schätzung: 0.71
EPS Vorjahresquartal: 2.48
EPS (Y/Y): -56.45%
Verkaufen lohnt bei mir nicht mehr. Ich stecke zu tief im Sumpf! Ich bleibe daher dabei und setze auf den Glücksfaktor.
Ich stecke zu tief im Sumpf!
Das kenne ich leider gerade nur zu gut.
Leider auch mit vielen Deutschen Aktien, die ja aktuell gar nicht aus dem Quark kommen.
(BASF, Covestro, Vonovia) - Ahja und seit gestern dann noch 2x Palantir, dank CSP eingebucht bekommen.
Wollte den CSP heute eigentlich nach 2023 rollen (Strike 15)
Nun denn.. machen wir es uns im Sumpf gemütlich, der trocknet hoffentlich bald aus und wir werden "gerettet"
Vorbörslich ca. 9% down.
...The US retailer would then lease back its stores.

Also können wir Ende September wenigstens ein (sehr) kleines Trostpflaster aka Dividende verbuchen.
Bei einigen Hundert $ im Minus macht diese Schwalbe natürlich noch keinen Sommer.
*daumendrücken* für heftiges Übernahmeangebot von 59+X $
;-)
Aufgrund der Gesamtmarktlage gebe ich der Aktie aber "Extra-Zeit".
Hoffentlich nicht vergebens.
Aktuell bin ich in der gesamten Position bei mehr oder weniger Plus/Minus Null. (Optionsprämien-/Aktiengewinne zum aktuellen Buchverlust gegengerechnet)
Wo ich einen genauen Stop der jetzigen Position ziehen würde, weiß ich noch nicht.
Bid: $30.04 Ask: $30.16
Volume: 4,739,935
DATA AS OF NOV 08, 2022 8:34 AM ET - PRE-MARKET
Gestern meinen 35er Call zurück gekauft -- geiles Timing.
Kann ich heute direkt einen neuen verkaufen. ;-))
Aber warum gerade 12% Plus, dazu habe ich noch keine Nachricht gefunden.
Neues Übernahmeangebot?
Im 3ten Quartal wurde auch mehr verdient, als erwartet wurde.
Die Dividende ist damit wohl safe. ;-)
Jetzt könnte sich wieder jemand berufen fühlen, eine Übernahme einzuleiten.
***(Kohl's) erwarte für das dritte Quartal einen Gewinn je Aktie von 82 Cent, was deutlich über dem FactSet EPS-Konsens von 63 Cent liegt.***

Alle Einzelhändler - wie auch Kohl's - kamen dabei unter die Räder.
Für 37,50 würde ich meine Shares ja hergeben. (Call läuft bis 16.12.)
The company said it increased its debt load during the quarter, and had a balance of $668 million on its revolving loan at the end of the quarter. Timm said Thursday the company expects to fully pay down this debt in early December as holiday sales come in.
Kohl’s aims to keep its investment grade rating, Timm said, and keep its leverage down. The company also plans to pay down its bonds, totaling $275 million, in 2023.
The company also recently held a process to assess potential opportunities for its owned real estate. While the process attracted dozens of potential bidders, including real estate service firms, large institutional real estate investors and private-equity firms, the company said it didn’t move forward with the process given market volatility and high interest rates.
Kohl’s paid $57 million in dividends during the quarter, and will pay another dividend to shareholders in December.

In a letter to shareholders in March defending its strategy against criticism from hedge fund Macellum Capital Management LLC, Kohl's said that a "large" sale-leaseback would "negatively impact margins by adding unnecessary rent expenses in perpetuity and risk Kohl's investment-grade rating".
It pointed to the example of retailer Big Lots Inc (BIG.N), which under pressure from Macellum and other hedge funds took on 15-year and 20-year leases for four distribution centers, raising $725 million only to see its operating margins plummet afterwards.
Big Lots did not respond to a request for comment.
In another example of sale-leasebacks adding to a retailer's financial woes, Bed Bath & Beyond Inc raised $250 million with sale-lasebacks for its stores, a distribution facility and office space, only to subsequently face a liquidity crunch and scramble to find ways to get out of leases.
Bed Bath & Beyond did not respond to a request for comment.
There are, however, examples of companies, such as Life Time Fitness and Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc (WBA.O), that carry out sale-leasebacks without burdening their finances. These tend to be smaller deals relative to their size that allow them to earn greater returns in their business than they do in real estate.
"Generally speaking, I believe a stable retailer with stable management, looking out for the long-term performance of the business, is far better off controlling its destiny than being subject to the vagaries of leaseback arrangements," said Mark Cohen, director of retail studies at the Columbia Business School.

Kohl's 'is a business whose time has passed,' analyst says

Kohl's (KSS) is bordering on irrelevancy, and it may stay that way for years to come, warned one veteran retail analyst.
"Kohl's is a business whose time has passed," Jan Rogers Kniffen, CEO of J Rogers Kniffen Worldwide, said on Yahoo Finance Live (video above). "They were the rising star all through the '80s, '90s, and into 2000, and at that point in time they wound up with 1,150 stores in a space that probably only needed 750. and they have been mature and struggling ever since."
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/...-passed-analyst-says-190359839.html
Kohl’s board contemplated a sale in July 2022 but decided a retail slowdown and rising interest rates didn’t add up. Since then, the stock has gone sideways as the market awaits the next potential catalyst. It doesn’t appear M&A will come to the rescue anytime soon, so Kohl’s will likely be a ‘show me’ turnaround story two-plus years in the making.

@GosAthor, bist du noch halbwegs glimpflich dieses Jahr davon gekommen?
Neues Jahr, neues Glück!? Ist noch ein Irrer dabei?
