The Men's Wearhouse, Inc. Research Report
On November 4, 2013, The Men's Wearhouse, Inc. (Men's Wearhouse) announced its response in relation to a request by Jos. A. Bank to conduct due diligence related to the unsolicited, highly-conditional and non-binding proposal by Jos. A. Bank to acquire Men's Wearhouse. The Company stated that its Board of Directors met and in consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, concluded that it is not in the best interest of the Company's shareholders to provide Jos. A. Bank with access to nonpublic information concerning Men's Wearhouse. The Board, while responding to the due diligence request, mentioned that the highly-conditional Jos. A. Bank $48.00 per share proposal significantly undervalues Men's Wearhouse. President, CEO and a Director of Men's Wearhouse Douglas S. Ewert said, "Our Board and management team are committed to creating value for our shareholders. We are enthusiastic about Men's Wearhouse's prospects and are confident that our strategic plan will deliver more value to our shareholders than Jos. A.
