Brookstone files for Chapter 11, powers down all of its mall massage chairs… forever
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Too melodramatic? Good, because that’s how our inner 14-16-year-old selves are feeling right now.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Remember the last time you were getting your blades squeezed and feet kneaded at your local mall’s Brookstone by one of those ostentatious, usually black pleather, massage chairs?
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
If you do, keep it close, because the ubiquitous broker of cool comfort gadgets has
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
filed for Chapter 11
</a>
bankruptcy protection
<em>
a-gain
</em>
, and will close 101 mall store locations -- AKA, every last massaging one of them.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
“I... Declare. BANKRUPTCY!!!” -- Michael Scott
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Brookstone got its start as a catalog retailer in 1965 selling “hard-to-find tools.” Their eclectic array of offerings brought them years of success, but debt and floundering sales eventually weighed them down.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
They filed for bankruptcy in 2014 and later sold to a group of Chinese investors.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Court papers show that Brookstone’s mall stores have operated at a loss yearly since 2014, bringing in net sales of roughly
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$138m
</a>
in 2017, down from $188m in 2016.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
It’s hard out there for a mall store
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The rise of online shopping has pushed mall vacancy rates to a 6-year high..
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Brookstone has closed dozens of stores since 2014, and they’re not alone. A whopping 9k mall stores closed in 2017, and that number is only expected to rise.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
The hope now lies within airports
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
As Brookstone waves goodbye to the malls of America, they lined up a
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$30m
</a>
bankruptcy loan to keep the chairs on in the company’s 35 airport locations while trying to work out a deal to sell.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The airport stores, which sell products from travel pillows to sleep masks, have been a bright spot for the beleaguered mall-boyfriend rest stop, bringing in nearly $38m last year.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
In other words, massage chairs may not be dead, but malls definitely are.

<strong>
After a quiet IPO, Sonos stock value cranked up more than 38% yesterday
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Sleek smart speaker maker Sonos debuted on the Nasdaq yesterday in an IPO that raised
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$208m
</a>
. They also hired a team of Emmy and Oscar-winning sound engineers to
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
design a new opening bell
</a>
for the Nasdaq.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But, an over-engineered ding-dong won’t save them now. Sonos’ value increased to more than $2B over intraday trading (still short of the $2.5B to $3B
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
forecast
</a>
in April), and they still have a long road ahead in a saturated smart-speaker market.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Cranking up the volume after a quiet start
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Sonos opened at
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$15
</a>
a share in its IPO, well below the targeted range of $17-$19.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But despite the slow start, its first day of trading was music to investors’ ears -- the company’s stock rose more than
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
38%
</a>
over the course of the day, boosting the company’s value as high as $2.04B.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Consumer tech is a bump, but smart devices are a mountain
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Popular consumer tech products have historically struggled to retain value after their IPO (GoPro
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
lost
</a>
75% of its IPO value and and FitBit lost 70%), so Sonos’ first challenge will be simple: Don’t nosedive.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But, even if Sonos retains its IPO value in the short term, the company’s bigger challenge will be continuing to
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
differentiate
</a>
itself from the massive tech companies (Google, Apple, Amazon) that are all also racing to dominate the smart speaker market.

Express Scripts stock falls on report that Carl Icahn wants to block Cigna merger
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
For months, Cigna has been in the process of buying pharmacy benefits manager Express Scripts for
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
$67B
</a>
… but that was before activist investor Carl Icahn got involved.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
<em>
Wall Street Journal
</em>
</a>
made the healthcare industry sick on Wednesday, after reports that Icahn had accumulated a “sizeable” stake in Cigna, and plans to vote
<em>
against
</em>
the deal at the approvals meeting in August.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Apparently, Icahn believes Cigna is overpaying for the Express Scripts cash and stock deal ($96.03 a share), and has also expressed his discomfort over competing with Amazon and the Trump administration’s push to cut pharmacy rebates.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
It’s an uphill battle…
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
With only a
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
5%
</a>
stake in the company, convincing shareholders who’ve been set on this deal for months may be a tough sell for the superhero investor.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Meanwhile, Cigna’s CEO David Cordani reinforced his confidence in the deal yesterday morning saying, “We strongly believe that the combination (with Express scripts) is in the best interest of our shareholders.”
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
But investors heard Icahn loud and clear
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Express Scripts’ stock fell
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
6%
</a>
after the report -- because even if it’s a longshot, when Icahn talks, people listen.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
We last heard from him when he dismantled the
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
Xerox-Fujifilm merger
</a>
, believing that the Japanese film company was dramatically undervaluing the copy-pioneer.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The Cigna deal feels like more of a hail mary, but if anyone can make it happen, Icahn.

Glossy mags are losing their sparkle -- Condé Nast sells 3 magazines after losing $120m
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
Condé Nast, the powerhouse publisher behind mega-mags like
<em>
The New Yorker
</em>
,
<em>
Vanity Fair
</em>
, and
<em>
Vogue
</em>
, is
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
selling off
</a>
3 of its magazines after posting over $120m in losses last year.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
Instagram killed the magazine star
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
The rise of social media has lured magazine readers away from print and into the black hole that is Instagram.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
In 2017 Condé Nast’s biggest magazine was
<em>
Glamour
</em>
, with 2.9m subscribers. To put that in perspective, actress Selena Gomez has over
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
133m
</a>
followers on Instagram -- more than 46x as many committed viewers as Conde’s biggest magazine.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
So Condé, which reaches just 164m consumers across all 14 of its magazines, is ditching underperforming
<em>
Brides
</em>
,
<em>
Golf Digest
</em>
, and
<em>
W
</em>
to trim the fat.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; margin-top: 16px;">
<strong>
I miss the old Condé, straight off the press Condé
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
These days, the old dogs have to learn new tricks to woo the social media masses. Case in point:
<em>
Time
</em>
recently
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
launched
</a>
a streaming TV program called ‘Paws and Claws,’ featuring viral animal videos.
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
But the 109-year-old Condé Nast magazine empire is trying to keep things highbrow, doubling down on its most iconic brands like
<em>
The New Yorke
</em>
r and
<em>
Bon Appétit.
</em>
</p>
<p style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 120%; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 12px;">
And, since most of Condé’s $120m in losses came from declining print ad sales (which declined
<a style="color: #ed4d1f; text-decoration: none;">
20%
</a>
last year), Nasty-Nast is also investing in digital. The company spent $500m on a data-analytics company in 2015 and plans to roll out more short-form videos to -- dare we say --
<em>
snap
</em>
up more viewers.
