Key Information

History

[edit]
The Children's Place in Manhattan

The company was founded in 1969. It was acquired by Federated Department Stores in 1981.[3] After Campeau Corporation acquired Federated, they sold The Children's Place to a group led by Joseph Sitt in 1988.[4] They became publicly traded on the NASDAQ exchange in 1997 under the ticker symbol PLCE.[citation needed]

The Children's Place had a location in the mall in New York's World Trade Center. This location was eventually destroyed during the September 11 attacks in 2001.[5]

Between 2004 and 2007, the company owned and operated 335 Disney Stores through a subsidiary Hoop Holdings/Hoop Retail Stores LLC.[6] Disney sold the chain for the cost of inventory to Children's Place subsidiary Hoop Holdings, plus a 15-year licensing agreement.[7][6] Mario Ciampi, senior vice president of store development and logistics, was named Hoop/Disney Store North America president. The company agreed to pump $100 million in operation upgrades and remodeling.[8] Under the licensing agreement, a "royalty holiday" period existed until October 2006 to allow revamping of the stores. The royalty thereafter was 5% of store sales, while online sales get Disney a 9% to 10% royalty. Hoop Holdings was able to write off the cost ($48 million) of the equipment and property received in the purchase.[7]

Hoops saw progress with its strategy as open stores in 2006 for 11 months saw 15% increase in sales assisted by a better Disney box office results and the Disney Channel hit High School Musical. A store website would be up and running in April 2007.[7]

In June 2007, the company began negotiations to sell the rights back to The Walt Disney Company.[6] On March 26, 2008, Hoop Holdings/Hoop Retail Stores LLC and related subsidiaries of TCP that operated Disney Store retail locations filed for bankruptcy.[6] Hoop obtained from Wells Fargo $35 million of debtor-in-possession financing and appointed Perry Mandarino of Traxi LLC, the Manhattan financial-restructuring company, as chief restructuring officer.[9] On May 1, 2008, 231 Disney Stores in North America once again became the property of Disney, operating under the Disney Consumer Products arm.[10]

On December 11, 2009, The Children's Place announced the appointment of former Lord & Taylor CEO Jane T. Elfers as president and chief executive officer (CEO) of the company, effective January 4, 2010.[11]

In the summer of 2013, the store withdrew a T-shirt from the stores with four options for "My best subjects" including "Shopping, Music, Dance and Math." While shopping, music, and dance were checked, math was left unchecked because the T-shirt stated "Nobody’s perfect!"[12]

Mithaq Capital of Saudi Arabia took a majority stake in The Children’s Place in February 2024 after the company said it was experiencing liquidity problems.[13][14][15]

The Children's Place announced a financing agreement with Mithaq to provide $78.6 million of interest-free, unsecured and subordinated term loans to strengthen the company’s liquidity position.[16]

In April, the company announced $90 million in new unsecured financing provided by Mithaq.[17]

Elfers stepped down as CEO on May 20, 2024, receiving a $3.75 million payout to exit the company.[18]

Turki S. AlRajhi, Chairman and CEO of Mithaq and Chairman of The Children’s Place, outlined background and strategy for The Children's Place in a letter to The Children’s Place shareholders on May 24, 2024.[19][20]

The Children’s Place opened its first Gymboree store at Westfield Garden State Plaza in Paramus on Nov. 20, 2024.[21]

Most of The Children's Place stores are located in and around regional malls, but also include some strip shopping centers, outlets, and street stores. The majority of their stores are small, traditional mall stores, although some Children's Place outlets are in a big box format.

History

Founding and Early Development

The Children's Place was founded in 1969 in , by David Pulver and Clinton Clark, both graduates of Harvard Business School's class of 1965. The duo identified a market opportunity in providing accessible products for children, drawing on their to establish a retail venture targeted at families seeking convenient shopping options. The company's first store opened in , initially offering a mix of toys, apparel, and accessories for children to appeal to a broad range of parental needs. This location served as the foundation for an early centered on value-driven merchandise, with products priced affordably to attract middle-income households. By the mid-1970s, The Children's Place had begun expanding through standalone stores, emphasizing a dedicated focus on while gradually phasing out toys to streamline operations and build brand identity around apparel. This strategy allowed the company to grow its footprint in the Northeast, reaching dozens of locations by the early 1980s through targeted openings in suburban shopping areas. In 1982, Pulver and Clark sold The Children's Place to Federated Department Stores, a major retail conglomerate, for integration into its diversified portfolio of specialty chains. Under Federated's ownership, the company underwent operational adjustments, including store remodeling and prototype development to enhance efficiency within the larger retail ecosystem. However, following Federated's acquisition by the Campeau Corporation in , The Children's Place reported financial losses of $12 million that year, prompting Campeau to divest the underperforming chain. It was subsequently sold for $30 million in cash to TCP Acquisition Corporation, an investor group led by , marking a shift to independent management amid efforts to address ongoing profitability challenges.

Growth, Acquisitions, and Rebranding

Following its financial struggles in the late 1980s, The Children's Place pursued aggressive growth under new ownership, increasing its store count from 161 in 1988 to approximately 180 by 1998 and nearly 400 by 2000, with further expansion reaching over 750 locations by 2004. This buildup to more than 500 stores by the early 2000s reflected a strategic emphasis on penetrating new markets across the . The company's maturation accelerated with its on September 19, 1997, on the exchange under the PLCE, which provided capital for further expansion and raised approximately $44 million. Post-IPO, The Children's Place entered the licensed apparel market in the , forging partnerships with major brands to offer character-themed , including a significant agreement with for character apparel, which also included acquiring and operating the North America chain from 2004 to 2008. These collaborations, which also encompassed other popular character brands, diversified product offerings and boosted revenue through themed collections targeted at young children. In June 2014, the company rebranded from The Children's Place Retail Stores, Inc. to The Children's Place, Inc., a change designed to better represent its evolving operations beyond traditional retail stores, including e-commerce and licensed products. This corporate identity shift underscored a broader strategic pivot toward a multi-channel specialty retailer. A key milestone in this evolution came in 2019, when The Children's Place acquired the Gymboree and Crazy 8 brands from the bankrupt Gymboree Group for $76 million, integrating these playwear lines into its portfolio to enhance its position in the children's activewear and casual apparel segments. The deal allowed for the relaunch of Gymboree products in select stores and online, capitalizing on the established brand's appeal for playful, everyday clothing.

Challenges and Recent Milestones

The acquisition of Gymboree and Crazy 8 by The Children's Place in 2019 for $76 million aimed to relaunch the brands but significantly increased the company's load and introduced operational integration challenges, including and alignment across the brands. This move strained finances amid a competitive retail landscape, as the company invested in relaunching Gymboree stores and online platforms while contending with the acquired brand's legacy issues from its prior bankruptcy. The exacerbated these pressures, leading to widespread store closures between 2020 and 2021 that reduced the U.S. footprint by approximately 300 locations, with 200 shuttered in fiscal 2020 and 100 more planned for 2021 to optimize the retail portfolio amid declining foot traffic and sales. These closures, accelerated by pandemic-related restrictions, highlighted vulnerabilities in the brick-and-mortar model and contributed to a net sales decline during the period.

This shift marked a strategic pivot toward reinvigorating brick-and-mortar presence after prolonged closures.
