The collapse of Revlon was already complex. In recent months, a financial crisis has gripped the corporation long held by billionaire Ron Perelman, leaving it with only the court-supervised Chapter 11 process as a means of survival.
According to the company, the bankruptcy filing was not caused by a lack of demand for its beauty goods, or high competition, but rather by supply chain glitches, inflation, and labor interruptions, which left it short on cash and working capital.
