The bankruptcy was foreshadowed last year when the company announced it hired an investment banker to refinance its debt and "explore other strategic alternatives. " In May, the company took a loan between $5 million to $10 million from the Paycheck Protection Program according to CNN Business' database.
Ascena Retail Group, the owner of Ann Taylor, Loft and Lane Bryant, said its business had been "severely disrupted" by the pandemic and closed hundreds of stores.
