Market Focus05-28

On May 27, Bath & Body Works rose 8.74% in regular trading, trading at $19.28/share, with trading volume of $191 million. The rally was driven by the company's first-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings report, which exceeded both market expectations and prior guidance.

Specifically, Bath & Body Works reported Q1 adjusted earnings per share of $0.32, surpassing the analyst consensus estimate of $0.29 by 10.34%. Net sales came in at $1.378 billion, also above the market estimate of $1.362 billion. However, both figures represented year-over-year declines from Q1 last year, when the company posted adjusted EPS of $0.49 and revenue of $1.42 billion. The company maintained its full-year adjusted EPS guidance of $2.40 to $2.65, compared with the FactSet consensus of $2.64. Management also highlighted progress under its Consumer First strategic framework, which bolstered investor confidence in future growth prospects.
