99 Cents Only Stores LLC has filed for bankruptcy after announcing plans in April to wind down its business operations.
The California-based discount retailer listed assets of $1 billion to $10 billion and liabilities of a similar range in a Chapter 11 petition filed in Delaware. Filing Chapter 11 will give 99 Cents Only time to conduct going out—of-business sales at its roughly 370 locations.
