    • Ashley Buchanan Appointed Chief Executive Officer and Board Member, Starting January 15
    • Tom Kingsbury Plans to Step Down as CEO on January 15, Retaining an Executive Advisory Role and Board Seat Through His Retirement in May 2025

    Kohl's Corporation ("Kohl's" or the "Company") (NYSE:KSS) today announced that Chief Executive Officer Tom Kingsbury plans to step down as CEO, effective January 15, 2025. He will stay on in an advisory role to the new CEO and retain his position on Kohl's Board of Directors (the "Board") through his retirement in May 2025, after which the size of the board will be reduced by one.

    The Board has appointed retail veteran Ashley Buchanan as CEO, effective January 15. Buchanan has been CEO of Michaels Companies since 2020 and, prior to that, has held a variety of senior executive roles at Walmart and Sam's Club during his 13 years at the company.

    Board Chair Michael Bender stated, "The Board is very grateful for Tom's leadership and ongoing service to Kohl's. Tom joined our Board in 2021. He then stepped up as interim CEO in 2022 and agreed to take the permanent position as CEO through May 2025. Under his leadership, the company is undergoing a transformation to elevate its product portfolio, enhance the store experience and improve its long-term financial health and profitability. On behalf of all Kohl's associates, we thank Tom for his leadership, for his role working with the Board on our CEO search, and for supporting Ashley through this transition."

    Bender added, "We are excited to welcome Ashley to Kohl's. His vast retail experience leading operations, merchandising, and e-commerce at Walmart and his past five years as CEO of Michaels will bring a steady, proven, innovative leader to Kohl's as we continue to transform the business and drive future growth. During his time at Michaels, he improved profitability and cash flow while driving operational efficiencies across the business. He also introduced new ways to leverage technology and e-commerce, allowing Michaels to more effectively meet customers where they are today. He has driven change by setting a clear vision, empowering teams, and practicing organizational accountability for results. We know he will be a great leader for Kohl's and will bring a new perspective in our next chapter."

    Kingsbury stated, "I've loved working in the retail industry for more than 40 years and it's been an honor to finish my career at Kohl's, a company that I've known and loved since I was a kid in Wisconsin. I'm proud of what the team has accomplished with our focus on enhancing the customer experience, driving value for customers, and running a sound and profitable business. I am optimistic for what is ahead for Kohl's associates, customers and shareholders."

    Buchanan stated, "I am thrilled to join Kohl's, a storied and respected brand in the retail industry. We have the privilege of serving millions of families all across the country, and I'm excited to work with the teams to evolve our business – building off the strength of our brand and loyal customer base while also creating a compelling retail experience for the future."

    Mr. Buchanan has been CEO and President of Michaels Companies since 2020, where he improved profitability, expanded the company's omnichannel approach by significantly growing the digital business, enhanced the store base with a smaller format model, and simplified its merchandise strategy. Prior to Michaels, he held a variety of executive positions at Walmart during his 13 years at the company, including Chief Merchandising and Chief Operating Officer for Walmart U.S. e-Commerce. Before that, he was Chief Merchant at Sam's Club where he led merchandising strategy, private brands, pricing, global sourcing, packaging and supply chain. Buchanan joined Walmart from Dell where he held a variety of positions in finance, and Accenture, where he focused on the retail industry. He holds a Bachelor of Business Administration in finance and real estate as well as a Master of Business Administration from Baylor University.
