  BJ's lagging sales, shares revive takeover talk - Boston.com
Takeover chatter surrounding BJ's Wholesale Club Inc. has persisted since last year, and judging by the company's current share price, balance sheet and business prospects, there may be no time like the present for a buyout, according to some analysts and bankers.
BJ's is the largest player in the Northeast, but it is only a matter of time before Costco and Wal-Mart, both hungry for expansion, move in with full force.
BJ's sales for the first quarter that ended in late April rose 6.3 percent, well behind Costco's 11 percent growth in its fiscal third quarter ended in early May. BJ's profit fell 17 percent in its most recent quarter; Costco's rose 12 percent.

 The Real Story: BJ's Beat Rings Hollow
The white elephant in the room on the conference call was the chatter of a potential leveraged buyout of the company.
"A major reason that BJ's could be an attractive LBO (leveraged buyout) candidate is the potential that a financial buyer could reduce new store openings and retrench from unproductive geographies in order to wring out incremental cash flow," he wrote.
Exstein went on to note that management's plan to accelerate store openings means that investors need to value BJ's on a more fundamental basis, as opposed to valuing it as a takeover candidate.

 BJ's CEO resigns; raises LBO questions
The abrupt resignation of BJ's president and chief executive officer Mike Wedge last week has raised questions whether it signals a step toward a leveraged buyout of the club operator.
BJ's chairman and interim chief executive officer Herb Zarkin said the company is looking for fresh perspectives, and Bank of America analyst David Strasser, in a research note, pointed out that the announcement, and a 33 percent company-owned asset base, must add fuel to recent LBO speculation.
In a joint statement announcing the resignation, Zarkin and Wedge said, “While the company has made great strides in its efforts to improve general merchandise sales and customer traffic, overall progress has not come as quickly as we had hoped and expected.

 MSN Money - SuperModels
In a set of moves reminiscent of the 1980s, leveraged-buyout (LBO) partnerships are raising record amounts of money to purchase and privatize wounded but salvageable public companies.
Other firms of its kind -- which now refer to their deals as “private equity” rather than LBOs because of the corporate-raider taint of the latter -- have also built big war chests.
In the 1980s, LBO firms gave greed a bad reputation by selling junk bonds to raise funds necessary to take over public companies, then exploiting corporate cash hoards to pay off the debt by slashing divisions and firing thousands of workers.

The number of acquisitions since January 1989 fell to 12 from 19 during the previous 18 months, while LBOs slipped to four from six and the number of chains going public dipped to three from four.
Nonetheless, deep pockets, such as K mart's and those of Investcorp, the Arab world holding company that just paid $1.5 billion to acquire Saks Fifth Avenue, as well as no-cash deals for distressed discounters have kept the consolidation pot simmering.
The second largest LBO last year was Dayton Hudson's sale of its Lechmere chain to Berkshire Partners, a Boston investment group.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Investors looking for a leveraged buyout of Gap Inc. (GPS.N: Quote, Profile, Research) might be disappointed, the president of Esplanade Capital said on Tuesday, citing the apparel retailer's valuation and the need for a corporate makeover.
"We don't think it will be taken out" in an LBO, said Shawn Kravetz at the Reuters Investment Outlook 2007 Summit in New York.
Buyout speculation has lingered for months around retailers such as BJ's Wholesale Club Inc. (BJ.N: Quote, Profile, Research), Barnes and Noble Inc. (BKS.N: Quote, Profile, Research), Borders Group Inc. (BGP.N: Quote, Profile, Research), as well as Gap.

Market watchers believe that Blackstone Group's record $36 billion buyout deal could easily be topped by a $50 billion leveraged buyout early next year followed by one that could top $100 million.
Targets include: Black and Decker, KB Home, Barnes and Noble, BJ's Wholesale Club, Hewlett-Packard and Loews.
Not only do private equity firms have record amounts of cash to invest - Blackstone is raising a $20 billion for its latest buyout fund - but also the pains of being a public company continue to weigh on the nation's chief executives.
