Bath & Body Works Q2 EPS Guidance Plunges to 20-25 Cents, Far Below Q1 Forecast
Summary
Bath & Body Works has issued Q2 earnings per share guidance of 20 to 25 cents. This represents a substantial sequential decline from the Q1 EPS guidance of 84 to 90 cents provided in early March. The new guidance confirms a challenging near-term outlook, following the company's weaker full-year 2026 adjusted EPS outlook announced on March 4th. This specific, lower-than-expected quarterly forecast is a material update that will likely lead to downward revisions in analyst estimates and could negatively impact investor sentiment.
