Why Peloton Shares Are Trading Lower Today

Peloton Interactive Inc (NASDAQ:PTON) is trading lower Tuesday on reports the company is working with management consulting group McKinsey & Co to review cost restructure, which could include store closures and layoffs.

The possible job cuts were discussed in a recent call with members of Peloton’s management team, according to a CNBC report citing a recording of the call. 

The report suggests that Peloton's apparel division, which has seen particularly weak sales, is one business segment that could be targeted.

"Morale is at an all-time low," said a Peloton employee who requested anonymity to be able to speak freely with CNBC. "The company is spinning out so fast."

Peloton operates an interactive fitness platform in two reportable segments: connected fitness products and subscriptions.
