Barclays Maintains “Underweight” Rating on Victoria’s Secret

Added to Favorite


Barclays maintains its “Underweight” rating on Victoria’s Secret, with a revised price target of $19, suggesting a cautiously optimistic outlook despite the stock’s current trading price of $21.15.
Victoria’s Secret reported a first-quarter net loss of $4 million, or $0.05 per share, marking a significant downturn from the previous year’s profit and highlighting challenges in its financial performance.
The stock experienced a nearly 5% drop following the announcement of its first-quarter results, reflecting market sensitivity to the company’s financial health amidst a volatile retail sector.

On Friday, June 7, 2024, Barclays maintained its “Underweight” rating on Victoria’s Secret (NYSE:VSCO), a notable player in the lingerie retail sector. Despite the firm’s cautious stance, it advised investors to hold onto their shares, setting a price target of $19, up from $16. This adjustment suggests a cautiously optimistic view on Victoria’s Secret’s financial prospects, despite the stock trading at $21.15 at the time of the announcement. Victoria’s Secret, known for its wide range of lingerie and beauty products, faces stiff competition in a rapidly evolving retail landscape, making such financial assessments crucial for investors.
The backdrop to Barclays’ assessment is Victoria’s Secret’s recent financial performance, which has been less than stellar. The company reported a first-quarter net loss of $4 million, or a loss of $0.05 per share, a significant downturn from the previous year’s first quarter, where it saw a profit of $1 million, or $0.01 per share. This loss marks a challenging start to the year for the retailer, contrasting sharply with its performance during the same period in 2023. Such financial results are critical for investors to understand as they reflect the company’s current operational and financial health.
Following the announcement of its first-quarter results, Victoria’s Secret saw a nearly 5% drop in share prices, highlighting the market’s reaction to its financial health. The stock’s price movement on the day, fluctuating between a low of $21.00 and a high of $22.27 and closing at $21.15, indicates investor sensitivity to the company’s performance updates. This price action is part of a broader trend over the past year, with VSCO’s shares reaching a high of $30.8 and a low of $13.62, showcasing the volatility and the challenges the company faces in the retail sector.
Victoria’s Secret’s market capitalization, standing at approximately $1.66 billion, along with a trading volume of about 4.83 million shares, underscores the scale at which the company operates and the investor interest it garners. The financial metrics and stock performance provide a comprehensive view of the company’s current market position and the challenges it faces. As such, Barclays’ rating and the subsequent market reaction offer valuable insights into Victoria’s Secret’s financial health and its prospects in the competitive retail landscape.
