Zacks
The Men's Wearhouse
Inc. (MW) has recently announced that effective August 2,
2012, Neill P. Davis will no longer serve as the executive vice
president and chief financial officer (CFO) of the company. Davis
resigned from his current position in Men's Wearhouse to join
Francesca's Holdings Corporation (FRAN) as
president.
This will not be Davis’ first
association with Francesca's Holdings, a women's specialty
retailer. He has been serving the company’s board as a director
since 2007. At Francesca's Holdings, a post has been created to
welcome Davis who will directly report to chief executive officer
John De Merit. Davis will remain a director at Francesca's even as
he assumes the new position as president.
Concurrently, Men's Wearhouse has
appointed its present executive vice president, Diana Wilson, as
the new CFO on an interim basis. The company will be on the lookout
for a permanent CFO. After in March 1999 as Corporate Controller,
Wilson has held an array of managerial positions in the
organization. She holds a nine years of experience as chief
accounting officer with Men's Wearhouse.
Wilson’s most recent role was to
supervise the company's U.K. corporate apparel operations since the
acquisition of Dimensions and Alexandra in August 2010. Considering
the vast know-how in public accounting, we remain optimistic on
Wilson’s on-probation appointment. As an interim CFO, Wilson will
closely monitor investor relations and assist the company's vice
chairman and erstwhile CFO, David Edwab.
One of North America's largest
specialty retailers of men's apparel also divulged other managerial
changes. The present vice president, finance and accounting, Kelly
Dilts will serve as the chief accounting officer.
Men's Wearhouse, which competes
with the likes of Collective Brands Inc. (PSS)
currently, retains a Zacks #4 Rank that translates into a
short-term Sell rating. We are maintaining our long-term Neutral
recommendation on the stock.
