Barneys struck a deal for $75 million in additional financing with two firms, Gordon Brothers and Hilco Global, to help it keep operating while it navigates bankruptcy court, according to the newspaper report. Barneys for weeks has been searching for a buyer or investor, grappling with a crisis due to a steep hike in rent at its Manhattan flagship store on Madison Avenue to roughly $30 million from $16 million.

However, its Madison Avenue store will stay open, and its nine-floor footprint will also remain the same, the NYT said.
