Brown Shoe (BWS) is down about 2% this morning after saying Diane Sullivan will become CEO, effective May 26, replacing Ron Fromm.
Fromm will remain board chairman.
The company late last week reworked its $380 million credit facility, reducing the yearly interest rate by 50 basis points and modifying several operating covenants to give the firm more flexibility.
