LL Flooring filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Delaware on Sunday as the company aims to reduce its physical footprint and close certain stores while pursuing a going-concern sale.
LL Flooring Holdings, Inc., rebranded from Lumber Liquidators in 2020, has been underperforming peers for years and facing bankruptcy rumors. Lumber Liquidators' founder Thomas Sullivan made multiple recent offers to buy the company and was rebuffed, but he just won a proxy battle and joined the Board. While the market has left the company for dead, Sullivan's solid plan to return the company to its profitable roots marks the start of a turnaround.
