\"\"Following the announcement of 66 stores earlier this month<\/a>, HMV<\/strong> have announced an additional 37 stores are set to close.<\/p>\n

Nick Edwards of administrators Deloitte said:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs part of our ongoing review of HMV\u2019s financial position, we have undertaken a further review of the store portfolio and have identified an additional 37 stores for closure. This step has been taken in order to enhance the prospects of the restructured business continuing as a going concern. Together with the previously identified 66 closures, this restructuring will result in a residual portfolio of some 116 stores. We are extremely grateful to the staff for their continued strong support and commitment during an understandably difficult period. All other key stakeholders including suppliers and landlords remain supportive and we appreciate their ongoing assistance.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
