“We believe these decisions, while difficult, are the right actions as we continue to focus on transforming our business. We will continue to invest in key business areas to strengthen our ability to compete and thrive well into the future.”
Earlier this month, Target Corp warned of larger losses than expected in its fourth-quarter as it revealed a data breach in December may have affected up to 70m customers.
