Bradley Radoff and Jumana Capital Increase Stake in Genesco Inc. and Revise Board Nominees
On June 10, 2026, Bradley Louis Radoff filed an amended Schedule 13D (Amendment No. 2) regarding Genesco Inc. (GCO). The filing indicates that a reporting group, including Mr. Radoff and Jumana Capital Investments LLC (managed by Christopher Ross Martin), collectively beneficially owns 966,479 shares of common stock, representing approximately 8.7% of the company. Individually, Mr. Radoff holds 460,000 shares (4.1%), while Jumana Capital holds 506,479 shares (4.6%). The amendment highlights significant changes in the group's activist strategy. On June 8, 2026, Mr. Radoff withdrew the nominations of Glen W. Herrick and Kashif Molwani for election to the Board of Directors. Simultaneously, the group filed a preliminary proxy statement to solicit proxies for the election of Westervelt T. Ballard, Jr. and Paula J. Poskon at the upcoming Annual Meeting. The reporting persons also executed an amendment to their group agreement to formally remove Messrs. Herrick and Molwani as parties. Recent open-market purchases by both Mr. Radoff and Jumana Capital throughout May 2026 further increased the group's total position.
