Rite Aid has been struggling financially for several years, facing competition from larger rivals such as CVS Health and Walgreens Boots Alliance. The company has also been grappling with debt from its $1.9 billion acquisition of Envision Healthcare in 2015.

In the bankruptcy filing, Rite Aid said it had $6.4 billion in assets and $6.9 billion in liabilities. The company said it plans to continue operating its stores during the bankruptcy process and does not expect any job losses.

Rite Aid’s bankruptcy filing is the latest in a series of bankruptcies among U.S. retailers. The company’s struggles are a sign of the challenges facing the retail industry, which is being disrupted by online shopping and other factors.

Rite Aid has said that it plans to continue operating its stores during the bankruptcy process and does not expect any job losses. However, it is possible that the company could close some stores or make other changes to its operations as part of its restructuring.

Customers should be able to continue shopping at Rite Aid stores and using their Rite Aid rewards cards as usual. However, they should be aware that the company may make changes to its product selection or pricing in the future.

Other retailers should take note of Rite Aid’s bankruptcy and make sure that they have a strong financial plan in place. Online shopping is not going away, and retailers need to adapt to the changing landscape in order to survive.
