On June 5, Victoria's Secret declined 5.26% in regular trading, trading at $74.70/share, with trading volume of $191 million. The stock continues to face selling pressure following a massive 45% surge on June 2 triggered by strong Q1 earnings results.
The pullback follows coordinated downgrades from major investment banks earlier this week. Jefferies downgraded the stock from Buy to Hold while raising its price target from $65 to $73, and UBS downgraded from Buy to Neutral with its target adjusted from $81 to $90. While both firms raised price targets, the simultaneous rating cuts signaled that current valuations have fully priced in the positive fundamentals. UBS specifically noted that the turnaround thesis has largely played out, with the stock trading at 15x estimated fiscal 2027 EPS — the high end of US specialty retailers — and limited further upside despite expectations of approximately 14% annual EPS growth over the next four years.
Victoria's Secret & Co. operates as a specialty retailer of women's intimate and other apparel and beauty products worldwide, offering products under the Victoria's Secret, PINK, and Adore Me brands through retail stores, digital channels, and franchise arrangements.
