Shonak, Senior Managing Director of the Transaction Team and Head of North America Lending at Gordon Brothers. “We were able to combine our customized lending with additional enhancements for a more effective long-term solution.”

Kirkland’s Home CFO Mike Madden noted that Gordon Brothers’ capital, capabilities and breadth of services “will further bolster our transformation efforts. Not only does the additional capital provide us with sufficient room to continue executing our strategic repositioning, but the financing was tailored to maximize value and give us flexibility going forward.”
