FROM THE DESK OF DEBORAH WEINSWIG This week, the FBIC Global Retail & Technology team is attending the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), held annually in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show has become a technology and cultural phenomenon, continuing to grow every year and reaching the limits of the conference venues. Last year, the announcements and presentations focused mainly on the hardware tools necessary for creating Internet of Things (IoT) devices. This year, the emphasis is on applications and connectedness. Nearly every product demonstrated at the show is able to connect to the IoT in some way, and many of the devices are voice-­‐
controlled. The show was formally launched with a glitzy multimedia presentation from Intel, which provided several demonstrations of what can be done with its Curie module. The tiny computer boasts a processor, battery and wireless communications capabilities in a device the size of a button, and has applications for gaming, fitness, extreme sports, sports watching, art and music. Another interesting demo was from Luxottica’s Oakley brand, which debuted its new sports glasses. The wearer communicates with the glasses via voice commands and, in turn, the glasses monitor his or her performance and provide coaching. We also saw demos of updated drones and robots that can follow voice commands. A recurring theme at the show this year is that the data collected by IoT devices could be used for the benefit of society. For example, traffic and weather information collected by driverless cars could be shared in the network for the benefit of other drivers. Connected cars could also transmit information on the health of accident victims to arriving medical personnel. Although true autonomous, driverless cars are still a couple of years away, both carmakers and chipmakers made announcements about them at CES 2016. Ford revealed its activities in driverless cars, and Nvidia and Qualcomm both demonstrated their auto-­‐related technologies. In terms of connectedness, Ford showed how its vehicles can interact with Amazon’s Echo home management hub to enable drivers to remotely turn on lights in the house or unlock doors from their vehicles, and Samsung made similar announcements with partner BMW. In his keynote address, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings outlined the history of television and stated that we are in a new age of watching what we want, when we want. He also announced that Netflix service is now available in nearly every country in the world, in a multitude of languages. IBM CEO Ginni Rometty gave an impressive keynote describing the power of the Watson artificial intelligence platform, which works in natural language. IBM is combining the power of Watson with new partners such as Under Armour, Medtronic and robotmaker SoftBank. Thus far at CES, we have seen impressive demonstrations across the IoT, driverless cars, drones, artificial intelligence, wearable tech, voice control, robotics, smart homes, health and fitness, augmented and virtual reality, and home/cyber security—and we are just getting started! The FBIC Retail & Technology team will continue to report from the show (which runs for two more exhausting, exciting days), and we will publish deeper analyses of what we saw after the show has ended.

US RETAIL HEADLINES Macy’s to Slash 4,800 Jobs and Close 40 Stores After Disappointing Holidays (January 7) Los Angeles Times • Citing a disappointing holiday season, Macy’s announced that it plans to cut about 4,800 jobs and close 40 stores as part of its efforts to slash costs. The cost efficiency and process improvement measures are to be implemented beginning in early 2016. The department store chain said comparable sales for November and December 2015 dropped by 4.7% year over year. •
Macy’s also said it will continue “the creation of shareholder value” by monetizing its real estate holdings. The company has retained Credit Suisse and Goldman Sachs regarding forming partnerships or joint venture(s) for its mall-­‐based properties as well as its flagship real estate assets in Manhattan, San Francisco, Chicago and Minneapolis. Hudson’s Bay Company Agrees to Buy Gilt Groupe to Expand All-­‐Channel Push (January 7) WWD.com • Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC) announced that it will acquire Gilt Groupe for $250 million in cash. The purchase is expected to close February 1. HBC paid $2.5 billion to buy German department store chain Galeria Kaufhof from Metro last September. The Gilt purchase represents HBC’s first acquisition in the purely digital space. •
The acquisition price represents a major drop for Gilt, which at its peak was valued at $1 billion. HBC said it plans to fold the luxury flash-­‐sales site into its Saks OFF 5th division to further develop its all-­‐channel retail model. HBC also plans to leverage Gilt’s mobile and personalization capabilities to accelerate the growth of its digital business across all its existing banners. Phones Top Tablets in Sales, Traffic for First Time (January 7) Shop.org • Mobile topped tablets in terms of online sales and traffic for the first time, according to the recent State of Retailing Online survey conducted by Shop.org, Forrester Research and Bizrate Insights. The survey revealed that smartphones accounted for 17% of total online sales in 2015, while tablets accounted for 14%. Overall, sales from phones grew by 53% in 2015 and sales from tablets by 32%. •
Despite the results, 30% of retailers surveyed said they invested less than $10,000 in smartphone platforms in 2015, while 17% invested $10,000–$50,000. However, 34% of those polled said they plan to grow their mobile investments by 1%–20% and 22% said they will grow their tablet investment by more than 20%. Sally Beauty Holdings Names Sharon M. Leite as President of Sally Beauty Supply US and Canada (January 6) Business Wire • Sally Beauty Holdings announced that Sharon M. Leite has been appointed President of Sally Beauty Supply’s US and Canada business, effective February 1. •

In addition, her responsibilities included E-­‐commerce, Operations and Real Estate.

With baby boomers aging and demand for pharmaceutical products rising, larger drugstore chains are looking to consolidate to boost their buying power and leverage against insurers. In October, Walgreens agreed to buy competitor Rite Aid for $17.2 billion, a deal that combines the nation’s second-­‐ and third-­‐largest pharmacy chains. The combined company will have about 13,000 US stores, leaping ahead of current market leader CVS. Walgreens said it still expects the deal to close in the second half of this year, despite the FTC asking for more information about the acquisition. Apparel Retailers Mostly Report Higher December Sales (January 7) RTTNews • A sampling of US apparel retailers found that most reported higher sales results at established stores for the month of December. •
Shoppers finally spent money on winter apparel toward the end of December after the late arrival of cooler weather, which boosted the holiday sales figures of apparel retailers. Unseasonably warm weather earlier in the month had delayed purchases of winterwear. EUROPE RETAIL HEADLINES Macintosh Files for Bankruptcy (December 30) Retaildetail.eu • The management of Dutch fashion and home decor retailer Macintosh Retail Group has decided to file for bankruptcy. The decision was announced only a few days after a Dutch court granted the company a “suspension of payments” to enable it to cope with temporary financial difficulties. •
The group stated that the bankruptcy would apply only to the parent company and not to its subsidiaries. It added that all of the group’s retail stores are open, and that management is mulling over various options, including selling the entire group or each individual division. Department Store Group V&D Goes Bankrupt (December 31) Dutchnews.nl • Another Dutch company, Vroom and Dreesman (V&D), has also declared bankruptcy. The department store chain runs 67 stores and restaurants in the Netherlands and said that those will remain open pending a potential relaunch. •
Around 10,000 staff employed by V&D are said to have lost their jobs. The state job center, UWV, will reportedly pay their salaries into January. The company stated that it has been in financial difficulty for a while, made worse by unseasonably warm weather in November and December and “a number of incidents and unforeseen situations.” Jaeger Shelves Sale Plans as Bids Fall Short of Asking Price (January 2) Telegraph.co.uk • Better Capital, the owner of fashion label Jaeger, has decided to abandon plans to sell the label because the offers that came in were less than the target price. The investment company announced that it will pump more capital into Jaeger instead. •
Better Capital had injected £63 million (US$93 million) into Jaeger since it bought the label in April 2012. However, it recently told investors that the business was now worth only £37 million (US$54 million). Reportedly, a mini-­‐auction before Christmas generated a handful of offers around the £35 million (US$51 million) mark, but the owners were firm in their decision to not sell below £40 million (US$59 million). Next Reports Disappointing Christmas Sales (January 5) Company press release • British high-­‐street fashion retailer Next reported “disappointing” performance for the 60 days through December 24, with sales hit by unusually warm weather in November and DEBORAH WEINSWIG, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR–HEAD OF GLOBAL RETAIL & TECHNOLOGY [email protected] US: 917.655.6790 HK: 852.6119.1779 CN: 86.186.1420.3016 Copyright © 2016 The Fung Group.

December. While directory sales in the period were up by 2% and overall sales by 0.4%, store-­‐based sales fell by 0.5%. •
The retailer has revised its full-­‐year profit estimate to £817 million (US$1,200 million), an increase of 4.4% from last year. The estimate is at the lower end of the profit guidance of £810–£845 million (US$1,190–US$1,242 million) announced in October. The company’s full-­‐
year results are scheduled to be announced on March 24. Jumbo Supermarket Chain to Cut 190 Jobs at Head Office (January 5) Retaildetail.eu • Dutch supermarket chain Jumbo announced that it will lay off about 190 employees at its main office as a result of closing its premises in Amersfoort and a butchery in Beilen.

Jumbo’s consolidated turnover for 2015 was €6.65 billion (US$7.14 billion), down €0.17 billion (US$0.18 billion) since last year.

Home Retail Group Rejected Takeover Offer Made by Sainsbury’s in November (January 5) FT.com • British grocery retailer Sainsbury’s reportedly made an offer to take over Home Retail Group in November, which the latter rejected. Home Retail, owner of the Argos and Homebase chains, has been the subject of takeover speculation for a few months. •
In a statement, Sainsbury’s added that “the combination is an opportunity to bring together two of the UK’s leading retail businesses.” The grocer said that while its November bid was a combination of cash and shares, that could change, as it has until February 2 under UK takeover rules to make a revised offer. ASIA TECH HEADLINES Indonesian Cash-­‐Back App Snapcart Raises Bridge Round (January 5) TechinAsia • Snapcart, an app that lets shoppers get cash back when they submit photos of their receipts, announced that it had raised US$1.7 million in a pre-­‐series A bridge round.

Here’s How Much Startups Raised in Southeast Asia in 2015 (January 4) TechinAsia • Total startup funding in Southeast Asia hit US$1.61 billion in 2015, a 43% jump from the 2014 figure of US$1.123 billion, according to Tech in Asia’s database. Given that many startups did not disclose the amounts they had raised, the true tally could be bigger. •
Seed funding grew by over 12%, to US$57.29 million, from US$50.89 million in 2014. Series A funding surged by 60%, to US$228.79 million, from US$143.09 million in the previous year, showing that many startups were able to survive closer scrutiny by venture capital firms and cross over to the crucial growth stage. Funding for The Bridge, Japan’s Bilingual Startup News Source (January 4) TechinAsia • Tokyo-­‐based online media startup The Bridge announced that it has raised funds from Fuji Startup Ventures, the venture arm of the Fuji TV network, and news release distribution service PR Times.

The Bridge translates some of VentureBeat’s content into Japanese and provides the blog with English coverage of the Japanese startup ecosystem. LATAM RETAIL HEADLINES Puerto Rico Expects a Decline of up to 30% in Holiday Sales (January 5) Associated Press • Puerto Rico’s National Retail Federation is reporting a drop in holiday sales of up to 30% amid a deteriorating economic situation. About 70% of businesses polled for a recent survey reported a decrease. •
The decline is likely due to a recent increase in the sales and use tax, to 11.5% from 7% last year. The tax increase is expected to help generate up to $1.2 billion in revenue, but it has forced some businesses to close and dampened shopping. Falabella to Invest US$4 Billion Through 2019 (January 4) WWD.com • Grupo Falabella plans to invest more than US$4 billion between 2016 and 2019, a 9.5% increase over the previous four-­‐year period, in order to boost its presence in South America. •

Apple Nearing Major Expansion in Latin America (January 4) Appleinsider.com • Apple is preparing to expand its brick-­‐and-­‐mortar retail presence in Latin America. New store openings are planned across Mexico and South America. •
The expansion is expected to be led by two large stores, including a flagship in Mexico City. How E-­‐Commerce Reaches the Unbanked in Mexico (January 4) PYMNTS.com • The low penetration rate of credit cards in Mexico has forced retailers to develop creative payment options. For example, Linio, a major online store in Latin America, also accepts PayPal, cash on delivery and cash payments (made at OXXO convenience stores). Regional e-­‐
commerce site MercadoLibre has its own payment system called MercadoPago that is similar to PayPal. •
Amazon, which started operating in Mexico in June, now accepts gift cards that can be purchased with cash at OXXO locations (there are more than 13,000 of them across the country) as well as OXXO brand prepaid cards. E-­‐Commerce Growing in Mexico (January 1) The Wall Street Journal • Online shopping is growing in Mexico, owing to greater Internet access and smartphone use. However, low penetration of credit cards—there are just 22.6 million credit cards in a country with a population of 119.5 million—and consumers’ reluctance to buy goods online have prompted e-­‐retailers to find creative solutions. •
Online shopping accounts for about 2% of Mexico’s roughly US$203 billion in annual retail sales, according to Euromonitor. However, the segment’s sales have more than quadrupled in the past five years and should double again by 2020.
