Pedestrians walk past a Rite Aid store in Brooklyn, New York. Many of the stores slated to close are in the Northeastern US.

Rite Aid filed plans to close 154 stores on Monday as part of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy.The chain had about 2,100 stores around the US headed into its bankruptcy.Rite Aid is the smallest of the three major drugstore chains, well behind CVS and Walgreens.

Rite Aid is slated to shutter 154 stores as part of its Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

The drugstore chain identified the underperforming locations in a court filing Monday. The closing stores are spread throughout the US but concentrated in California as well as Northeastern states including New York and Pennsylvania.

Rite Aid was expected to close stores as part of its bankruptcy. In September, the Wall Street Journal reported that the chain could shutter up to 500 stores.

Rite Aid told Insider that it considers a variety of factors when deciding to close a store, “including business strategy, lease and rent considerations, local business conditions and viability, and store performance.”

Rite Aid said it would transfer patients’ prescriptions to other pharmacies “so there is no disruption of services.”

“We will also strive to transfer associates to other Rite Aid locations where possible,” the company said.

The closures would mark the latest decrease in store count for Rite Aid.

In 2013, the chain operated about 4,600 stores in the US. But in 2017, rival pharmacy chain Walgreens bought just under 2,000 of the company’s locations for $4.38 billion. Walgreens had previously planned to buy Rite Aid in its entirety, but US regulators blocked the deal. Today, Rite Aid has about 2,100 stores.

Rival CVS, meanwhile, has almost 10,000 stores in the US. Walgreens has 9,000 locations.
