In a separate release, ក្រុមហ៊ុន Levi Strauss & Co. said Gass will join the company in early January as president and step into the role of CEO within the next 18 months. She will succeed the company’s CEO Chip Bergh.

Kohl’s also announced preliminary third quarter results. It said it anticipates comparable sales to be down 6.9% in the three-month period ended Oct. 29, with net sales down 7.2%, from a year ago. The company plans to release its full quarterly results on Nov. 17.

Kohl’s — and Gass — have been under pressure from investors. Activist investor Ancora Holdings and has pushed the company to remove Gass from the position. Another activist investor Macellum Advisors has also urged a change in leadership, including an ouster of the company’s chairman.

The retailer’s board shook off that criticism and pressed ahead with plans to redesign stores, add new brands and offer more e-commerce options for customers. In 2020, it struck a deal with Sephora to open hundreds of beauty shops in its stores — and now plans to add them to all of its stores.

Early this month, Kohl’s opened a new store format in Tacoma, Washington with a smaller footprint, more mannequins and a merchandise assortment geared toward local preferences. And ahead of the holidays, it has added self pick-up at all stores, an area where customers can retrieve online purchases.

Kohl’s said the leadership change will take effect on Dec. 2. The board appointed Tom Kingsbury, a Kohl’s director since last year, to serve as interim CEO.
