FREMONT, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Tailored Brands, Inc. (NYSE: TLRD) announced today that its board of directors (the “Board”) adopted a short-term shareholder rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) to protect the best interests of all Tailored Brands shareholders. In adopting the Rights Plan, the Board has taken note of the substantial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on market activity and increased volume and volatility in the trading of the Company’s stock.

The Rights Plan is designed to allow the Company’s shareholders to realize the long-term value of their investment by reducing the likelihood that any person or group would gain control of Tailored Brands through open market accumulation without appropriately compensating the Company’s shareholders for such control or providing the Board sufficient time to make informed judgments. The Rights Plan is not intended to prevent or interfere with any action with respect to Tailored Brands that the Board determines to be in the best interests of shareholders.

The Rights Plan is similar to plans adopted by other publicly held companies. The rights will initially trade with Tailored Brands common stock and will generally become exercisable only if any person (or any persons acting as a group) acquires 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock (or 20% in the case of certain passive investors) (the “triggering percentage”). The Rights Plan does not aggregate the ownership of shareholders “acting in concert” unless and until they have formed a group under applicable securities laws. If the rights become exercisable, all holders of rights (other than any triggering person) will be entitled to acquire shares of common stock at a 50% discount or the Company may exchange each right held by such holders for two shares of common stock. Under the Rights Plan, any person which currently owns more than the triggering percentage may continue to own its shares of common stock but may not acquire any additional shares without triggering the Rights Plan.

The Rights Plan has a one-year duration, expiring on March 29, 2021. The Rights Plan may also be terminated, or the rights may be redeemed, prior to the scheduled expiration of the Rights Plan under certain other circumstances.

Additional details regarding the Rights Plan will be contained in a Form 8-K to be filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
