Allbirds, Inc. 8-K

What Happened
Allbirds, Inc. announced on January 28, 2026 (via a press release filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8‑K) that it will close its remaining full-price retail stores in the United States by the end of February 2026. The company said it will continue to operate two outlet stores in the U.S. and two full-price stores in London. The 8‑K was signed by CEO Joe Vernachio on January 28, 2026.

Key Details

• Announcement date: January 28, 2026 (press release filed as Exhibit 99.1).
• U.S. full-price stores: all remaining full-price U.S. retail stores will be closed by end of February 2026.
• Remaining retail footprint: two U.S. outlet stores will remain open; two full-price stores will remain open in London.
• Form 8‑K signed by CEO Joe Vernachio on January 28, 2026.

Why It Matters
This filing confirms a material change to Allbirds’ U.S. physical retail presence—after the closures, the company will no longer operate full-price stores in the U.S., while keeping a small outlet and international footprint. The 8‑K does not include financial details (e.g., expected charges, revenue impact, or cost savings), so investors should watch upcoming quarterly filings and press releases for information on any restructuring costs, inventory actions, or effects on revenue and store operating expenses.
