NEW YORK—July 14, 2025—Macy’s, Inc. (NYSE: M) (the “Company”) announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Macy’s Retail Holdings, LLC (the “Issuer”), priced an offering of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.375% senior notes due 2033 (the “Notes”) in a private offering at an offering price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Notes will have a maturity date of August 1, 2033. The closing of the offering of the Notes is expected to occur on July 29, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer and will be unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company.

The Issuer intends to use the proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to (i) fund its separately announced concurrent tender offer (the “Tender Offer”), (ii) redeem approximately $587 million of certain of its existing outstanding senior notes and debentures (such redemption, the “Redemption”) and (iii) pay fees, premium and expenses in connection therewith and this offering. The Redemption and the Tender Offer are conditioned on, among other things, the consummation of the offering of the Notes. The offering of the Notes, however, is not conditioned on the consummation of the Redemption or the Tender Offer (including the tender of any specified amount of the Company’s outstanding senior notes as part of the Tender Offer). This press release does not constitute an offer to purchase, a solicitation of an offer to sell or a notice with respect to any tender offer or redemption of any existing notes.

This press release is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to sell nor the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the Notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. The Notes are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in an offering exempt from registration in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes and related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
