Item 1. Security and Issuer. This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 3”) relates to the shares of common stock, par value $0.50 per share (“Common Stock”), of Bath & Body Works, Inc. (the “Issuer”) and amends the Schedule 13D filed on December 8, 2022 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed on February 22, 2023, and Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed on March 6, 2023 (together, the “Schedule 13D”). Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment No. 3 have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

This Amendment No. 3 is being filed to amend Item 5 and Item 7 as follows:

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. Items 5(a), 5(c) and 5(e) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(c) Set forth on Schedule A hereto are all transactions in the shares of Common Stock effected during the past sixty days by the Reporting Persons, inclusive of any transactions effected through 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 25, 2024.

(e) On October 23, 2024, as a result of the transactions reported in this Amendment No. 3, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than five percent of the shares of Common Stock, and the Reporting Persons are no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Rule 13d-1(a) of the Exchange Act.
