Tuesday Morning CFO to leave Jan. 15; Martha Stewart Wedgwood collection

Tuesday Morning Corp.’s chief financial officer, Elizabeth A. Schroeder, plans to leave the retailer next month. Schroeder, who is also executive vice president, secretary and treasurer, will resign Jan. 15, according to an SEC filing late last week. Tuesday Morning has lowered its fiscal 2008 outlook, projecting sales of $943 million to $955 million. It had earlier forecast sales of $987 million to $997 million for fiscal 2008.

Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. and Wedgwood will introduce the Martha Stewart Collection with Wedgwood exclusively at Macy’s, a tabletop line featuring 10 fine bone china patterns, six crystal stemware patterns, and six stainless steel flatware patterns, available in U.S. Macy’s stores beginning in January 2008. Each china pattern is available in 5-piece place settings, ranging in price from $99-$159; tea and coffee services and a full complement of serveware are also available. Each of the six-stemware patterns offers Wine, Goblet, Flute, and Iced Beverage styles and range from $30 to $37 per stem. The flatware’s larger size reflects Martha’s preference for a heavier, more substantial eating utensil, with designs spanning traditional, transitional and modern styles and ranging from $45 to $60 for a 5-piece place setting. Wedgwood is a subsidiary of Dublin, Ireland-based Waterford Wedgwood plc.
