Anyone see the stock closing today? 3.740, down 7.290. Not good. Glad I don't own any.

From Bloomberg Business News:

QVC Is in Talks With Creditors to Restructure Debt in Bankruptcy

"The company and its lenders have held confidential talks aimed at resolving a complex balance sheet and burdensome debt load, according to people familiar with the matter. Terms haven’t been set and no final decision has been made about filing for bankruptcy, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information."

With a prepackaged Chapter 11 QVC Group can work out the terms of the debt restructuring with creditors consenually and continue operations generally as normal. It could be very fast.

It's typically common stock holders who get hit the hardest and often get wiped out.

@They CallMe MRWILKES So in this scenario - what are the possibilities? Could the overall debt be reduced or some forgiven? Could there be refinancing and interest rates lowered? Could terms with creditors be extended? I suppose all are potential options. Can creditors or whomever they owe money to just say, "NO" to any restructuring?

Yes, all of those are potential solutions. The banks want some, if not most of their money back.

The Revolving Credit Agreement banks can agree to all sorts of relief including maturity extension and repayment terms.

Unfortunately for a retailer, vendors may start becoming reluctant to deliver inventory or take new orders.

@They CallMe MRWILKES This is what I thought might happen. I have known many companies, ( smaller) loose venders, or pull back. Vendors are hesitant to sell to company with financial issues. They are jittery about getting paid, or having company go into bankruptcy. I would see a reduction in inventory selection, and maybe reduction in easy pays , ya think? I certainly don't expect or wish this to happen to QVC. Perhaps an angel will come, or certainly new management. It is not just QVC, it is all all over. Commerce is changing so quickly.

Non-exempt assets are removed. Can't get credit for years.

I think bankruptcy is the end, even those it's still breathing.

Does anyone remember Woodward and Lothrop?

What a wonderful, upscale store it was and they went bankrupt and then liquidation. I couldn't stop buying. I actually have beautiful items I've never used, but the prices were remarkable.

Beautiful clocks, cappuccino cups and saucers, shoes still not worn. I keep it all in my gift closet.

It was my first liquidation at a beautiful store. I could just imagination one at the Q.

Loved to buy lunch at Morton's.

Garfinckel’s was another beautiful store.

@skatting44 Oh yes, I just loved Woodies. I just bought and bought there. Clothes were just beautiful.

How sad to see them close.

Just yesterday, I saw a beautiful clock from there. I couldn't gift it b/c I loved it too much.

I hated to see all those lovely stores close. Glad you enjoyed Woodies, too, @skatting44 !

Saks announced eight store closures and fifty-seven closures of Saks Off 5th.

Eddie Bauer is in liquidation.

Sales in retail have declined everywhere.

Many young people prefer experiences over things.

Many older people have more things than they need.

Expansions are mainly going on for discount department stores.

I hope QVC can hang on!

@febe1 and @skatting44 - Woodies was my mom's favorite store, and she was thrilled when one opened near her.

I shopped there too some and loved it. They always had unusual things, and their restaurant was incredible!

I don't know a whole lot about bankruptcy, except for reading about the major stores and restaurants closing. But I have to wonder if part of this is because QVC bought HSN.

What do you think?

@skatting44 @febe1 --Thanks for the memories from another Woodie's and Garfinckel's fan! It would be sad to see QVC follow in their path.

Retail sales were flat in December following a 0.6% increase in November. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had expected an increase of 0.4%.

The OP is correct.

QVCGA, the QVC Group's Series A Common Stock, closed yesterday at $3.74 per share, a drop of about 66% from its opening price.

Pre open trading this morning shows an additional price drop of approximately 10%-12%.

Wednesday 2/11 QVCGA closed at $3.41, down almost 9%

Did you know Ann Woodward, wife of William Woodward, was accused of murdering her husband in 1955?

She killed him in self defense.

Truman Capote had an unfinished book before he died claiming she murdered him.

Ann Woodward ingested cyanide.

Truman Capote did that movie with all of these women and they were friends until his book.

Lot of history to Woodies!!!

I think this is why we see so many repitition in proucts being offered.

Maybe they should follow Talbot's which has been having terrific sale prices starting before Christmas and still going !

Also why not cut back on so many Hosts and having 2 on at a time ??? Is QVC paying salaries for Shawn 's podcast and that Busy lady ?
