Limited Brands 3Q Sales Down, Profit Up


(Filed Under Financial and General Interest News). Limited Brands, Inc. cited a comparable store sales drop of 2 percent during this year’s third quarter ended October 31, 2009. Net sales were $1.777 billion compared to $1.842 billion, a 3.5 percent drop. But despite drops in sales, the company reported an increase in net income, to $14.9 million, or 5 cents per diluted share, from $4.2 million, or 1 cent per diluted share; which it attributed to better cost and inventory management.

For the Victoria’s Secret brand, comparable store sales fell 4 percent compared to an 8 percent drop last year. The company ended the quarter with 1,046 Victoria’s Secret stores in the United States, three Victoria’s Secret Canada stores and 304 La Senza stores.
