So far in 2026, Kohl's shares have given back the bulk of their 2025 turnaround-related gains. Shares in the retailer recently tanked yet again, as investors reacted negatively to news of further same-store declines.

Kohl's CEO signals no additional store closures planned this year after shuttering 27 locations last year, focusing on optimizing existing 1,150 stores nationwide.

Kohl's CEO Michael Bender has revealed that customers and staffers do not need to worry about more intense store closures this year as he focuses on turning around the flailing retailer.

Last year, the CEO of the department store chain Kohl's (NYSE: KSS) announced the closure of 27 locations in order to help shore up the company's struggling finances.

Kohl's is using proprietary brands to offer lower prices and streamlining the number of styles and products it stocks, company executives said.

KSS posts fourth-quarter earnings beat at $1.07 as margins improve, but revenues fall 4.2% and comparable sales drop 2.8% amid fewer store transactions.

Goldman Sachs trimmed its price target on Kohl's Corporation (NYSE:KSS) to $13 from $15 on Tuesday, maintaining its Sell rating after the department store chain reported what the firm characterized as mixed fourth-quarter results.

Kohl's faces significant headwinds, with eroding sales trends and market share losses during the crucial holiday season. KSS has declined approximately 30% since January, reflecting investor concerns over its competitive positioning and consumer demand. The challenging macroeconomic environment and persistent inflation are weighing heavily on KSS, intensifying the retailer's struggles.
