Neiman's total debt stood at $4.8 billion at the end of October 2017, according to CreditRiskMonitor, which also noted successive quarterly losses, adding up to $617.9 million, since first quarter 2017 (which ended Oct. 29 of 2016). As a result, Neiman bankruptcy risk in the next year is as high as 50%, according to that report. Also in October, Fitch Ratings included Neiman Marcus on a secondary "loans of concern" list, indicating some default risk over a total outstanding loan balance of $2.8 billion.
