HUDSON, Ohio, March 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JOANN Inc. (NASDAQ: JOAN) (“JOANN”), the nation’s category leader in sewing and fabrics with one of the largest arts and crafts offerings, announced today that its subsidiary Jo-Ann Stores, LLC entered into a $100 million first-in last-out facility (the “FILO Facility”) that will provide the company additional liquidity, help optimize the balance sheet, and drive free cash flow across the enterprise.

Additionally, JOANN plans to release its earnings the Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2023 after the market closes on March 23, 2023 and will host a conference call on the same day at 5:00 p.m. ET.
