Saks Global was created in July 2024 by Hudson’s Bay Company after its $2.65 billion acquisition of Neiman Marcus, combining Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus and other luxury retail and real estate assets.
The proceeds from the deal would help Saks Global pay down debt from its acquisition of Neiman Marcus, the Journal said.
Saks Global is also in the process of selling $600 million of real estate and currently owns properties valued at roughly $9 billion, the report added.
Reuters could not immediately verify the report. Saks Global and Bergdorf Goodman did not immediately respond to Reuters’ requests for comment outside regular business hours.
