- Thursday, June 6, 7:13 AM More on Limited Brands (LTD) sales: The company continues to see Victoria's Secret lose some sales momentum, only up 4% during the month, while online sales and gains at La Senza helped to take up some of the slack. Results were in-line with what analysts on Wall Street forecast. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, June 6, 7:06 AM Limited Brands (LTD) May same-store sales:+3%. Total Sales +9.7% to 737M. (PR) Comment! [Consumer]
- Friday, May 31, 8:45 AM A below par reading on personal spending for April was affected by lower gas prices and home heating bills and isn't a biting indictment on retail spending (AEO, ANF, ARO, BBBY, BBY, BJ, CHS, COH, COST, DG, DLTR, GPS, HD, JCP, JWN, KSS, LOW, LTD, M, NDN, NKE, ODP, PIR, PLCE, RSH, SKS, SPLS, TGT, TJX, URBN, WMT, WSM, ZLC), according to economists. Auto sales also cooled off just a bit in April which had an impact. So far, retail trends have been largely favorable in May as the height of the spring selling season shifted a few weeks later. 4 Comments [Consumer]
- Friday, May 24, 4:35 PM Limited Brands (LTD) declares $0.30/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 2.41%. For shareholders of record June 7. Payable June 21. Ex-div date June 5. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
- Thursday, May 23, 8:18 AM Jefferies thinks Limited Brands (LTD) still looks an underperformer after it dissected the retailer's Q1 results. Analyst Randal Konik calls out the slowing same-store sales growth trends for the company and notes it will run up against some tough margin comparables later in the year. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 23, 8:01 AM Limited Brands (LTD) (now going by L Brands) could trade higher when it opens after raising its full-year EPS guidance to $2.95-$3.15 from $2.92-$3.12 on top of a minor EPS beat with its Q1 report. The retailer saw steady sales gains across its brands during the last quarter while expenses and inventory only rose moderately. Comment! [Consumer]
- Wednesday, May 22, 4:32 PM Limited Brands (LTD): Q1 EPS of $0.48 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $2.26B (+5% Y/Y) in-line. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News]

- Monday, May 20, 8:29 AM The flood of tourists into Hong Kong from Mainland China looks promising to global retailers setting up shop in the region, although the tilt towards more bargain shopping could be a trend to watch for high-end sellers. Outlet malls have seen the biggest gains in traffic and sales in Hong Kong which sets up nicely for retailers that planned a strategy which pivots on squeezing profits from the channel. Hong-Kong watching: Nike (NKE), Limited Brands (LTD), Gucci (GUCG.PK), Prada, Louis Vuitton (LVMUY.PK), Coach (COH), Ralph Lauren (RL), Michael Kors (KORS), Swatch (SWGAY.PK), Burberry (BURBY.PK), and Tiffany (TIF). Comment! [Consumer, Global & FX]
- Friday, May 17, 7:03 AM Limited Brands (LTD) is downgraded by Jefferies to Underperform and assigned a lower price target of $40. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 9, 11:55 AM Retail stocks (XRT) were bid up a bit too much, according to AlixPartners' Steve Nevill. High-profile misses on April sales from Limited Brands (LTD -1.8%) and Costco (COST -0.3%) - as well as the soft Q1 numbers from Ann (ANN +4.3%) and Wet Seal (WTSL +5.7%) show that Wall Street might have been expecting too big of a bounce in consumer spending too soon. The price-aware climate appears just right for TJX Companies (TJX +0.8%) and Ross Stores (ROST +0.3%) though, as the pair kept up its winning ways during the month. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 9, 7:24 AM More on Limited Brands' (LTD) sales: Victoria's Secret sales fell the most from last year, while Bath & Body Works sales held up the best. The retailer raises Q1 EPS guidance to $0.46, from a prior estimate of $0.40 to $0.45. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, May 9, 7:15 AM Limited Brands (LTD) Apr. same-store sales:+2% vs. consensus of +4.6%. Total Sales flat% to 660.5M. (PR) Comment! [Consumer]
- Tuesday, May 7, 9:29 AM Retail sales numbers for April could be a tad weaker than expected after weekly reports from Redbook and ICSC-Goldman on chain store sales both came in a bit below expectations. Retail read-through: Weather and swings in gas prices seemed to impact store traffic to malls (KSS, DDS, JCP, LTD, GPS, ANF, AEO) and supercenters (WMT, COST TGT), but economists think consumer confidence on the high end (TIF, RL, SKS, COH, BBBY) just might be on the rise. Also, with online sales de-emphasized in the weekly chain store reports - Internet whiz kids Macy's (M) and Urban Outfitters (URBN) could still outperform even if mall parking lots aren't packed. 1 Comment [Consumer, U.S. Economy]
- Friday, April 12, 11:47 AM Retailers start to feverishly launch and promote their spring lines after the weather in March gave them a very small window to work with. Though retail sales came in decidedly sluggish last month, on-trend firms such as Zumiez (ZUMZ -0.6%) and Limited Brands (LTD +0.8%) bucked the trend neatly. Watch Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF -2.1%), Francesca's Holdings (FRAN +1%), and Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%) in April tips Janney Capital Markets. 1 Comment [Consumer]
