Kohl's withdrew its sales and profit forecasts following a third-quarter earnings report that revealed revenue decline amid record-high inflation.

Following the release of Kohl's, the retailer withdrew its 2022 sales and profit forecasts on Thursday, citing the volatility of the economy and a CEO transition.
