BOSTON (Reuters) - Activist investor Legion Partners Asset Management LLC has nominated seven directors to sit on specialty retailer Genesco Inc’s eight-person board, according to a letter made public in a filing on Monday.
Legion, run by Christopher Kiper, wants Genesco to consider selling non-core assets and buy back shares. It owns a 5.6% stake in the retailer, which has a market capitalization of $727.8 million. Genesco’s stock price inched up 1.3% to $49.29.
“We will review the letter from Legion, along with their proposed director candidates, and respond in due course,” Genesco said in a statement.
With Legion’s board nominees, “Genesco will be able to produce $7.50 in earnings per share (“EPS”) by fiscal 2023 and see its stock double from current levels,” Kiper and Legion Managing Director Ted White wrote in a letter to other shareholders.

3 Min Read
BOSTON (Reuters) - Hedge fund Indaba Capital said on Tuesday it had nominated two directors to Benefitfocus Inc’s board, and the software company responded a few hours later, saying it had named a veteran human resources executive as a new independent director.
The two sides have been trading barbs for weeks over the company’s future, high turnover in its executive suite and who should be sitting on its board.
San Francisco-based Indaba five weeks ago called on Charleston, South Carolina-based Benefitfocus to sell itself following years of poor returns. On Tuesday, it increased the pressure by nominating two men with technology and software expertise to the company’s board. Shareholders will vote on whether to add them to the board. ....

Blucora urges investors to reject Ancora's directors, plans


2 Min Read
BOSTON (Reuters) - Financial services firm Blucora Inc is urging shareholders to back its board and block a dissident investor’s effort to seat four directors, arguing it has already made key changes that are bearing fruit and that the outsider’s plans are “deeply flawed.”
“Blucora is on the right path to creating long-term value for all stockholders,” the Dallas-based company’s board wrote to shareholders asking them to vote for all of its director candidates instead of the four that activist investor Ancora Holdings Inc proposed. Reuters saw a copy of the letter.
Blucora’s directors wrote that they replaced the chief executive and chief financial officers early last year amid concerns about performance, positioned the company’s two tax-focused businesses for long-term growth, added four new independent directors in 2020 and 2021, and continued to review alternatives to how the business is currently set up. ....
