Willkie is representing Saks Global Holdings LLC, a leading luxury retail company, in its chapter 11 restructuring and a related $1.75 billion financing package.

On January 14, Saks Global announced that it commenced voluntary chapter 11 cases in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas with support from its key financial stakeholders. In connection with the chapter 11 filing, Saks Global secured a financing commitment of approximately $1.75 billion, comprising $1.5 billion from an ad hoc group of the company's senior secured bondholders and approximately $240 million of incremental liquidity from the company's asset-based lenders.

Saks Global is the largest multi-brand luxury retailer in the world, comprising Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, Saks OFF 5TH, Last Call and Horchow. Its retail portfolio includes 70 full-line luxury locations, additional off-price locations and five distinct e-commerce experiences.
