Victoria’s Secret sees FY22 EPS $4.50-$4.95, consensus $4.73

Sees FY22 revenue down 6%-7%, consensus $6.36B. The company said, "The Company is forecasting full year 2022 net sales to decrease 6% to 7% compared to last year’s full year net sales of $6.785 billion. At this forecasted level of sales, adjusted operating income is expected to be in the range of $525 million to $575 million, or approximately 8% to 9% of sales. Adjusted net income for the full year 2022 is estimated to be in the range of $4.50 to $4.95 per diluted share. As previously announced, we expect the acquisition of Adore Me to close by the end of January 2023, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory clearances. Because the Adore Me transaction has not yet closed, our fourth quarter and full year 2022 outlook excludes any financial impact related to this transaction."
