Hillary Super, VS&Co Chief Executive Officer, said, “We
delivered a very strong start to 2026, exceeding top- and
bottom-line guidance and continuing the momentum we built in the
back half of last year. We drove double-digit sales growth across
Victoria’s Secret, PINK, and Beauty, as well as our fourth
consecutive quarter of positive comps. Our customer responded
strongly to our product innovation, emotionally resonant
storytelling, and distinct brand projection, driving double-digit
growth in new customer acquisition, increased regular-price selling,
and broad-based strength across categories, channels, and
geographies. These results reflect the progress we are making
against our Path to Potential strategy as we continue to strengthen
customer connection, build brand heat, and drive sustainable
long-term growth.”
Ms. Super concluded, “We are increasingly confident in the
trajectory of the business. Our teams are executing with greater
precision and agility, Victoria’s Secret, PINK, and Beauty are
gaining cultural relevance and expanding their customer files, and
we have a strong pipeline of product launches, partnerships, and
brand moments ahead. We believe we are well positioned to continue
building momentum and creating shareholder value.”
Scott Sekella, VS&Co Chief Financial and Operating Officer,
said, “Our first quarter results reflect disciplined execution
across the business, including broad-based gross margin improvement,
driven by higher regular-price selling, reduced promotions, and
leveraging our buying and occupancy expenses, all despite tariff
headwinds. We also delivered SG&A leverage versus last year’s
first quarter and EPS growth that outpaced operating income growth.
Given our strong first quarter performance and continued momentum in
the business, we are raising our fiscal 2026 outlook and remain
confident in our ability to drive profitable growth.”
