While customers won’t notice much of a difference, it gives investors the opportunity to buy into only the faster-growing segment, which could boost its value. The Saks unit aims to go public in the first half of 2022 with a target valuation of roughly $6 billion—three times what it was pegged at earlier this year—the Journal has reported.</p><p><blockquote>今年早些时候,萨克斯第五大道百货公司(Saks Fifth Avenue)将快速增长的电子商务业务从零售店中分离出来后,将百货公司快速增长的电子商务业务从零售店中分离出来的想法越来越受欢迎。虽然客户不会注意到太大的差异,但这让投资者有机会只买入增长较快的细分市场,从而提高其价值。据《华尔街日报》报道,萨克斯百货公司计划于 2022 年上半年上市,目标估值约为 60 亿美元,是今年早些时候估值的三倍。</blockquote></p><p> That prompted Macy’s Inc. to hire consulting firm AlixPartners to evaluate whether it makes sense to spin off its e-commerce operations, a move that followed pressure from an activist investor.

The stock rose in the following months, and the two sides eventually reached a truce that added three new directors to Kohl’s board.
