On March 25, 2026, Richard Clark, Douglas W. Sesler and Tracey Zhen notified the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Macy’s, Inc. (“Macy’s” or the “Company”) of their intention not to stand for re-election to the Board at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders to be held on May 15, 2026 (the “2026 Annual Meeting”). The decisions of Mr. Clark, Mr. Sesler and Ms. Zhen not to stand for re-election were not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company regarding any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, practices or otherwise.
The Board has approved a decrease in the size of the Board from 13 to ten members effective as of the 2026 Annual Meeting.
The Company regularly reviews the size of the Board to improve efficiency, performance and effectiveness. This reduction represents a resizing to align with the Company’s current strategic focus while retaining flexibility to change the Board’s composition as necessary in the future.
