BIG Lots has announced a major change to its original plan to close up to 40 stores nationwide.
The discounter will now close more than 300 underperforming stores across the country.

In July, the chain said it had suffered consistent net losses from 2022 through the first quarter of 2024.
Store sales declined 10.2%, ABC affiliate WMTW reported.
The chain, which has almost 1,400 stores in the United States, is posting signs at stores that will close.
Locations that will be closed display huge signs that say, “CLOSING THIS LOCATION.”
A July 31 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) listed the 315 locations that will close, representing nearly 22% of the 1,389 stores nationwide.
In total, 35 states will have Big Lots locations closing.
California will be hit hardest by the closures, with 75 of the state’s 109 set to close, Fast company reported.
The company’s stock price was up 88% on August 8, now selling for $0.90 per share. In January, the stock sold for a high of $8 per share.
The January high is down significantly from the March 2021 share price of $68.
The announcement follows a previous statement from the company that said it would only close 40 locations due to “high inflation.”
“In 2024, the US economy continued to face macroeconomic challenges, including high inflation, which had a negative impact on our customers’ purchasing power,” said a statement. financial disclosure from Big Lots said.
As the retailer’s sales declined, its debt increased.
The store is now drowning in more than $573 million in long-term debt.
