Caleres Announces CFO Transition

ST. LOUIS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Caleres (NYSE: CAL), a market-leading portfolio of consumer-driven footwear brands, today announced that Dan Karpel, the company’s senior vice president and chief accounting officer, has been appointed to the additional role of interim chief financial officer, effective immediately. Mr. Karpel succeeds Jack Calandra, who is leaving Caleres at the end of the month to pursue other opportunities. His departure is not related to any disagreement with the company. The company has commenced an external search for a permanent successor.

Mr. Karpel rejoined Caleres as chief accounting officer in October 2025 and brings over 30 years of valuable accounting and finance experience to the role of interim CFO. Most recently, he served as the chief financial officer of Club Car Wash Operating, LLC. Previously, he was chief financial officer of CW Holdings, LLC and a legacy entity which owned the brands Soft Surroundings and Coldwater Creek. He also served as chief accounting officer of Eyecare Partners LLC and Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc.

“On behalf of the board of directors and all of our Associates, I would like to thank Jack for his contributions over the last three plus years and wish him the very best,” said Jay Schmidt, president and CEO. “Dan recently returned to Caleres, and he knows our company well. We are confident that his deep familiarity with our company coupled with his financial expertise will ensure a smooth transition.”

In conjunction with this announcement, the company provided an update on fourth quarter results. We are still evaluating the full impact of the Saks Global bankruptcy; however, this could result in sales volatility and up to $0.06 risk to our fourth quarter earnings per diluted share guidance. Additionally, we may incur charges related to restructuring not previously anticipated in guidance. Excluding these potential impacts, our sales and earnings per diluted share outlook for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2025 are in-line with previous guidance provided in the company’s press release issued on December 9, 2025.
