Casper, the sleep unicorn, files for IPO

January 12, 2020

Wake up everyone, Casper Sleep just filed to go public. The self-described “pioneer of the Sleep Economy” has enlisted Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and a slew of other banks to market its initial public offering, according to a filing issued Friday afternoon. But it could be a heavy lift for the mattress firm to get a deal done at a good price because Casper, like many other unicorns, is deeply unprofitable and growth is slowing. The company posted a $67.3 million net loss through the first nine months of last year, compared to a $65.5 million loss …

December 22, 2019

Just five national chain-store brands expanded by more than 10 stores in the five boroughs in 2019, a year in which the number of such stores dropped by nearly 4%.  That year-over-year decline is the largest yet recorded by the Cent… for an Urban Future, a think tank that has been publishing a State of the Chains report on New York City since 2007.

November 24, 2019

Mayor Bill de Blasio and But de Blasio called humbug on the transit chief’s suggestion that the city didn’t keep him in the loop. The mayor’s office accused Byford of suggesting a dedicated bus lane on the cross-streets at the last minute, which they argued would have deprived tourists and New Yorkers of needed walking space. “We’ve discussed this plan with them numerous times over the last few weeks,” said the mayor’s spokesman Will Baskin-Gerwitz. “Unfortunately, the MTA’s proposal would have reduced pedestrian space—the exact opposite of our shared goal.”
