    BATH & BODY WORKS, INC.
    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
    (Unaudited)

    1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
    Description of Business
    Bath & Body Works, Inc. (the “Company”) is a global omnichannel retailer focused on personal care and home fragrance. The Company sells merchandise through its retail stores in the United States of America (“U.S.”) and Canada, and through its websites and other channels, under the Bath & Body Works®, White Barn® and other brand names. The Company’s international business is conducted through franchise, license and wholesale partners.
    Fiscal Year
    The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. As used herein, “first quarter of 2025” and “first quarter of 2024” refer to the thirteen-week periods ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, respectively, and references to “quarter” and “year” each refer to the fiscal calendar period.
    Basis of Consolidation
    The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated entities where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its share of the investee’s net income or loss. Losses are only recognized to the extent the Company has positive carrying value related to the investee. Carrying values are only reduced below zero if the Company has an obligation to provide funding to the investee. The Company’s share of net income or loss of all unconsolidated entities is included in Other Income, Net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s equity method investments are required to be reviewed for impairment when it is determined there may be an other-than-temporary loss in value.
    Interim Financial Statements
    The Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the periods ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024 are unaudited and are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
    In the opinion of management, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.
    Seasonality of Business
    The Company’s operations are seasonal in nature and consist of two principal selling seasons: Spring (the first and second quarters) and Fall (the third and fourth quarters). Typically, the Company’s sales are highest during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns. Due to the seasonal variations in the retail industry, the results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.
    Derivative Financial Instruments
    The Company’s Canadian dollar denominated earnings are subject to exchange rate risk as substantially all the Company’s merchandise sold in Canada is sourced through U.S. dollar transactions. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate this foreign currency exposure. Amounts are reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income upon sale of the hedged merchandise to the customer. These gains and losses are recognized in Costs of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy in the Consolidated Statements of Income. All designated cash flow hedges are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The fair value of designated cash flow hedges is not significant for any period presented. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
    Supplier Finance Program
    In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company implemented a supply chain finance (“SCF”) program agreement with a third-party financial institution, whereby the Company’s merchandise suppliers have the opportunity to settle outstanding payment obligations early, at a discount, facilitated by the financial institution. The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted by suppliers’ participation in the arrangement and the Company provides no guarantees to any third parties under the SCF program. Amounts due under the SCF program are included in Accounts Payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and within Operating Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash
    7

    Table of Contents
    Flows. Amounts due under the SCF program were $52 million and $7 million as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, respectively.
    Concentration of Credit Risk
    The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and derivative contracts with various major financial institutions. The Company monitors the relative credit standing of financial institutions with whom it transacts and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one entity. The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily composed of U.S. government obligations, U.S. Treasury and AAA-rated money market funds, commercial paper and bank deposits.
    The Company also periodically reviews the relative credit standing of franchise, license and wholesale partners and other entities to which it grants credit terms in the normal course of business. The Company determines the required allowance for expected credit losses using information such as customer credit history and financial condition. Amounts are recorded to the allowance when it is determined that expected credit losses may occur.
    Easton Investments
    The Company has land and other investments in Easton, a planned community in Columbus, Ohio, that integrates office, hotel, retail, residential and recreational space. As of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, certain of these investments met all of the required criteria for held for sale presentation, which requires assets to be reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. These investments, consisting primarily of undeveloped land, are reported at their carrying value, which was $97 million and $96 million as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, respectively, within Current Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company also had other Easton investments not presented as held for sale, with a carrying value of $24 million and $26 million as of May 3, 2025 and February 1, 2025, respectively.
    The Company’s Easton investments totaled $121 million as of May 4, 2024, and are reported in Other Assets on the May 4, 2024 Consolidated Balance Sheet as they did not meet all of the required criteria for held for sale presentation as of that date.
    Previously included in the Company’s Easton investments were equity interests in Easton Town Center, LLC (“ETC”) and Easton Gateway, LLC (“EG”), entities that own and develop commercial entertainment and shopping centers. The Company’s investments in ETC and EG were accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company sold its entire interest in the business associated with EG and its entire interest in ETC.
    Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and the Company revises its estimates and assumptions as new information becomes available.
    Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
    In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, that requires enhanced income tax disclosures, primarily related to standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its disclosures.
    In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, that requires disclosures of disaggregated information about certain prescribed expense categories within relevant income statement expense captions. This standard is effective for annual reporting of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods in the following year, with early adoption permitted. This standard should be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its disclosures.
    2. Revenue Recognition
    Accounts receivable, net from revenue-generating activities were $67 million as of May 3, 2025, $81 million as of February 1, 2025 and $74 million as of May 4, 2024. These accounts receivable primarily relate to amounts due from the Company’s franchise, license and wholesale partners. Under these arrangements, payment terms are typically 45 to 75 days.
    The Company records deferred revenue when cash payments are received in advance of transfer of control of goods or services. Deferred revenue primarily relates to gift cards, loyalty points and rewards, and direct channel shipments not received by the customer, which are all impacted by seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns. Deferred revenue, which is recorded within Accrued Expenses and Other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $177 million as of May 3, 2025, $197 million as of
    8

    Table of Contents
    February 1, 2025 and $178 million as of May 4, 2024. The Company recognized $64 million as revenue during the first quarter of 2025 from amounts recorded as deferred revenue at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year.
    The following table provides a disaggregation of Net Sales for the first quarters of 2025 and 2024:

    _______________
    (a)Results include fulfilled buy online pick up in store orders.
    (b)Results include royalties associated with franchised stores and wholesale sales.
    The Company’s Net Sales outside of the U.S. include sales from Company-operated stores and its e-commerce site in Canada, royalties associated with franchised stores and wholesale sales. Certain of these sales are subject to the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency. The Company’s Net Sales outside of the U.S. totaled $132 million and $126 million for the first quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively.
    3. Net Income Per Share and Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit)
    Net Income Per Share
    Net Income per Basic Share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Net Income per Diluted Share includes the weighted-average effect of dilutive restricted share units, performance share units and stock options (collectively, “Dilutive Awards”) on the weighted-average common shares outstanding.
    The following table provides the weighted-average shares utilized for the calculation of Net Income per Basic and Diluted Share for the first quarters of 2025 and 2024:

The 2025 and 2024 first quarter rates were higher than the Company’s combined estimated federal and state statutory rates primarily due to accrued interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits.

    Asset-backed Revolving Credit Facility
    The Company and certain of the Company’s 100% owned subsidiaries guarantee and pledge collateral to secure an asset-backed revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”). The ABL Facility, which allows borrowings and letters of credit in U.S. dollars, has aggregate commitments of $750 million and, as of May 3, 2025, had an expiration date in August 2026.
    Availability under the ABL Facility is the lesser of (i) the borrowing base, determined primarily based on the Company’s eligible U.S. and Canadian credit card receivables, accounts receivable, inventory and eligible real property, or (ii) the aggregate commitment. If at any time the outstanding amount under the ABL Facility exceeds the lesser of (i) the borrowing base and (ii) the aggregate commitment, the Company is required to repay the outstanding amounts under the ABL Facility to
    11

    Table of Contents
    the extent of such excess. As of May 3, 2025, the Company’s borrowing base was $639 million, and it had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility.
    The ABL Facility supports the Company’s letter of credit program. The Company had $11 million of outstanding letters of credit as of May 3, 2025 that reduced its availability under the ABL Facility. As of May 3, 2025, the Company’s availability under the ABL Facility was $628 million.
    As of May 3, 2025, the ABL Facility fees related to committed and unutilized amounts were 0.30% per annum, and the fees related to outstanding letters of credit were 1.25% per annum. In addition, the interest rate on outstanding U.S. dollar borrowings was the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% and a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum.
    The ABL Facility requires the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00 during an event of default or any period commencing on any day when specified excess availability is less than the greater of (i) $70 million or (ii) 10% of the maximum borrowing amount. As of May 3, 2025, the Company was not required to maintain this ratio.
    Subsequent to May 3, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility, which removed the interest rate credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, extended the expiration date from August 2026 to May 2030 and included other technical amendments.

    8. Fair Value Measurements
    Cash and Cash Equivalents include cash on hand, deposits with financial institutions and highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than 90 days. The Company’s Cash and Cash Equivalents are considered Level 1 fair value measurements as they are valued using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
    The following table provides a summary of the principal value and estimated fair value of the Company’s outstanding Long-term debt as of May 3, 2025, February 1, 2025 and May 4, 2024:

    Fair Value, Estimated (a)3,957 3,986 4,351 
      _______________
    (a)The estimated fair value of the Company’s Long-term debt is based on reported transaction prices, which are considered Level 2 inputs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurement. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
    Management believes that the carrying values of the Company’s Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses approximate their fair values because of their short maturities.
    9. Commitments and Contingencies
    The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, insurance, regulatory and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Actions filed against the Company from time to time may include commercial, tort, intellectual property, tax, customer, employment, wage and hour, data privacy, securities, anti-corruption and other claims, including purported class action lawsuits. Management believes that the ultimate liability arising from such claims and contingencies, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
    Lease Guarantees
    In connection with the spin-off of Victoria’s Secret & Co., the Company had remaining contingent obligations of $227 million as of May 3, 2025 related to lease payments under the current terms of noncancelable leases, primarily related to office space, expiring at various dates through 2037. These obligations include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the spin-off. The Company’s reserves related to these obligations were not significant for any period presented.
    10. Segment Reporting
    The Company is managed at the consolidated level and therefore operates and reports as a single segment. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer was its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), and the measure of profitability included in the financial information regularly provided to the CODM was total Company Operating Income. The Company’s CODM assesses Operating Income performance in comparison to forecasts and historical results to make decisions on the reinvestment of profits into the business and capital allocation strategies.

    11. Subsequent Events
    Effective May 16, 2025, Gina Boswell ceased serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and resigned as a member of its Board. Also on May 16, 2025, the Company’s Board appointed Daniel Heaf to serve as the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Heaf will be appointed as a member of the Board effective as of immediately following the conclusion of the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
    On May 22, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility, which removed the interest rate credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, extended the expiration date from August 2026 to May 2030 and included other technical amendments.

    Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

    To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Bath & Body Works, Inc.
    Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements
    We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bath & Body Works, Inc. (the Company) as of May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, total equity (deficit), and cash flows for the thirteen-week periods ended May 3, 2025 and May 4, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

    We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of February 1, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, total equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 14, 2025, we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of February 1, 2025, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

    Basis for Review Results
    These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

    Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
    The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as codified in the Accounting Standards Codification. The following information should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
    Executive Overview
    In the first quarter of 2025, consolidated Net Sales were $1,424 million, which increased $40 million, or 2.9%, compared to the first quarter of 2024. Total North American Net Sales increased $34 million, primarily due to increases in transactions and average dollar sales, and International Net Sales increased $6 million. Our first quarter Operating Income was $209 million, which increased $22 million, or 11.7%, compared to the first quarter of 2024, and our Operating Income rate (expressed as a percentage of Net Sales) increased to 14.7% from 13.5%. The Operating Income rate increase was primarily due to a higher Gross Profit rate, partially offset by an increase in General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses.
    For additional information related to our first quarter 2025 financial performance, see “Results of Operations.”
    Outlook
    We believe our strategy and actions position the Company to achieve sustainable, profitable growth and to drive long-term shareholder value. We believe our continued innovation across our core categories supported by compelling marketing and enhanced technology, building on innovation platforms we launched in 2024 and extending our reach through adjacencies and international expansion, will continue to accelerate Net Sales growth over the long term. Amid a challenging macroeconomic backdrop, we have remained disciplined and decisive in our actions which is evidenced in our current performance.
    We expect consumers to continue value-seeking behavior and consumer sentiment to remain volatile as the broad-based tariffs imposed by the U.S. government, and threatened or imposed retaliatory measures by other countries, have increased macroeconomic uncertainty in global markets. We are actively monitoring the changes in shifting trade policies and related market disruptions and are leveraging our predominately U.S.-based supply chain to take proactive measures to mitigate global trade policy shifts and to offset our tariff exposure over time. Building on our current performance, proactive tariff mitigation strategies, and our strong, predominately U.S.-based supply chain, we believe we are well-positioned to absorb the impacts of tariffs currently in effect and levied. Continued changes in trade policies and disruptions could have substantial impacts on the global economy and may magnify the impact of the risks to our business described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Stores Net Sales increased $45 million, or 4.3%, primarily driven by an increase in transactions due to an increase in BOPIS fulfilled orders (which are recognized as store Net Sales) and new store growth, and an increase in average dollar sales. Direct Net Sales decreased $11 million, or 4.3%, driven by a decline in fulfilled orders, which was primarily due to our customers continuing to select our BOPIS option, partially offset by an increase in average order size. International Net Sales increased $6 million, or 10.1%, driven by timing of product shipments to our partners.

    Gross Profit
    For the first quarter of 2025, our Gross Profit increased $40 million to $646 million, and our Gross Profit rate (expressed as a percentage of Net Sales) increased to 45.4%, from 43.8% in the first quarter of 2024. Gross Profit dollars increased due to higher Net Sales and a 100 basis point improvement in the merchandise margin rate, which was primarily driven by strategic pricing and strong cost management. Category mix shifts drove both lower average unit retails and average unit costs during the quarter.
    Gross Profit rate increased due to the merchandise margin rate improvement as well as leverage on Occupancy Expenses due to Net Sales growth.
    General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses

Selling Expenses and General and Administrative Expenses both increased primarily due to higher payroll related costs, mainly driven by wage inflation, partially offset by the benefits of our cost optimization work.
    The General, Administrative and Store Operating Expense rate increased primarily due to the increase in payroll related costs and incremental investments in marketing.
    Other Income and Expenses
    Interest Expense
    The following table provides the average daily borrowings and average borrowing rates for the first quarters of 2025 and 2024:

    Average daily borrowings (in millions)$3,916 $4,386 
    Average borrowing rate7.1 %7.3 %
    For the first quarter of 2025, our Interest Expense was $71 million, compared to $82 million in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease was due to lower average daily borrowings and borrowing rate, which were driven by the early extinguishment of outstanding notes.
    Other Income, Net
    For the first quarter of 2025, our Other Income, Net was $8 million, compared to $13 million in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest income on invested cash in the first quarter of 2025.
    Provision for Income Taxes
    For the first quarter of 2025, our effective tax rate was 28.4% compared to 26.8% in the first quarter of 2024. The 2025 and 2024 first quarter rates were higher than our combined estimated federal and state statutory rates primarily due to accrued interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits.

    FINANCIAL CONDITION
    Liquidity and Capital Resources
    Liquidity, or access to cash, is an important factor in determining our financial stability. We are committed to maintaining adequate liquidity. Cash generated from our operating activities provides the primary resources to support current operations, growth initiatives, seasonal funding requirements, future common stock and debt repurchases, and capital expenditures. Our cash provided from operations is impacted by our net income and working capital changes. Our net income is impacted by, among other things, sales volume, seasonal sales patterns, success of new product introductions and product and market expansions, profit margins, income taxes and inflationary pressures. Typically, our sales are highest during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns. Generally, our need for working capital peaks during the summer and fall months as inventory builds in anticipation of the holiday period. Our cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries were $182 million as of May 3, 2025.
    During the first quarter of 2025, we repurchased 4.326 million shares of our common stock for $135 million. We may, from time to time, repurchase, or otherwise retire, additional debt or shares of our common stock, as applicable.
    We believe that our current cash position, our cash flows generated from operations and our borrowing capacity under our asset-backed revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”) will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, including capital expenditure requirements, for at least the next twelve months.
    Cash Flows

Net income included depreciation of $64 million and share-based compensation expense of $10 million.

The most significant items in working capital were the seasonal changes in Inventories and Accounts Receivable.
    Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2024 was $76 million, including net income of $87 million. Net income included depreciation of $71 million and share-based compensation expense of $12 million.

The most significant items in working capital were the seasonal changes in Inventories, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other.
    Investing Activities
    Net cash used for investing activities in the first quarter of 2025 was $39 million, primarily related to capital expenditures. The capital expenditures included approximately $25 million related to new off-mall stores and remodels of existing stores and approximately $10 million for various technology projects primarily to support the growth and profitability of our business.
    Net cash used for investing activities in the first quarter of 2024 was $46 million related to capital expenditures. The capital expenditures included approximately $35 million related to new, primarily off-mall stores and remodels of existing stores.
    In 2025, our top priority remains driving sustainable, long-term, profitable growth through strategic investments in the business. To support this, we continue to plan capital expenditures of approximately $250 million to $270 million during the year, with a focus on real estate and technology.
    Financing Activities
    Net cash used for financing activities in the first quarter of 2025 was $188 million, primarily consisting of $136 million for share repurchases and dividend payments of $0.20 per share, or $43 million.

    Common Stock and Debt Repurchases
    Our Board of Directors (our “Board”) will determine share and debt repurchase authorizations, giving consideration to our levels of profit and cash flow, capital requirements, current and forecasted liquidity, the restrictions placed upon us by our borrowing arrangements as well as financial and other conditions existing at the time. We use cash flow generated from operating and financing activities to fund our share and debt repurchase programs. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be made at our discretion, taking into account a number of factors, including market conditions.
    Common Stock Repurchases

    Asset-backed Revolving Credit Facility
    We and certain of our 100% owned subsidiaries guarantee and pledge collateral to secure the ABL Facility. The ABL Facility, which allows borrowings and letters of credit in U.S. dollars, has aggregate commitments of $750 million and, as of May 3, 2025, had an expiration date in August 2026.
    Availability under the ABL Facility is the lesser of (i) the borrowing base, determined primarily based on our eligible U.S. and Canadian credit card receivables, accounts receivable, inventory and eligible real property, or (ii) the aggregate commitment. If at any time the outstanding amount under the ABL Facility exceeds the lesser of (i) the borrowing base and (ii) the aggregate commitment, we are required to repay the outstanding amounts under the ABL Facility to the extent of such excess. As of May 3, 2025, our borrowing base was $639 million, and we had no borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility.

    Table of Contents
    The ABL Facility supports our letter of credit program. We had $11 million of outstanding letters of credit as of May 3, 2025 that reduced our availability under the ABL Facility. As of May 3, 2025, our availability under the ABL Facility was $628 million.
    As of May 3, 2025, the ABL Facility fees related to committed and unutilized amounts were 0.30% per annum, and the fees related to outstanding letters of credit were 1.25% per annum. In addition, the interest rate on outstanding U.S. dollar borrowings was the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% and a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum.
    The ABL Facility requires us to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00 during an event of default or any period commencing on any day when specified excess availability is less than the greater of (i) $70 million or (ii) 10% of the maximum borrowing amount. As of May 3, 2025, we were not required to maintain this ratio.
    Subsequent to May 3, 2025, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility, which removed the interest rate credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, extended the expiration date from August 2026 to May 2030 and included other technical amendments.

    Guarantor Summarized Financial Information
    Certain of our subsidiaries, which are listed on Exhibit 22 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have guaranteed our obligations under the 2027 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2029 Notes, 2030 Notes, 2035 Notes and 2036 Notes (collectively, the “Notes”).
    The Notes have been issued by Bath & Body Works, Inc. (the “Parent Company”). The Notes are its senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured obligations, are senior to any of our future subordinated indebtedness, are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future indebtedness that is secured by a lien and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future obligations of each of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes.
    The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, including certain subsidiaries that also guarantee our obligations under our ABL Facility (such guarantees, the “Guarantees”; and, such guaranteeing subsidiaries, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors are subject to release in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions. Each Guarantee is limited, by its terms, to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor subject to avoidance under applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of U.S. and non-U.S. law.
    The following tables set forth summarized financial information for the Parent Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors on a combined basis after elimination of (i) intercompany transactions and balances among the Parent Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and (ii) investments in and equity in the earnings of non-Guarantor subsidiaries.

    Contingent Liabilities and Contractual Obligations
    Lease Guarantees
    In connection with the spin-off of Victoria’s Secret & Co., we had remaining contingent obligations of $227 million as of May 3, 2025 related to lease payments under the current terms of noncancelable leases, primarily related to office space, expiring at various dates through 2037. These obligations include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the spin-off. Our reserves related to these obligations were not significant for any period presented.
    Contractual Obligations
    Our contractual obligations primarily consist of long-term debt and the related interest payments, operating leases, purchase orders for merchandise inventory and other long-term obligations. These contractual obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations subsequent to February 1, 2025, as discussed in “Contingent Liabilities and Contractual Obligations” in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain of our contractual obligations may fluctuate during the normal course of business (primarily changes in our merchandise inventory-related purchase obligations which fluctuate throughout the year as a result of the seasonal nature of our business).
    RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
    In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, that requires enhanced income tax disclosures, primarily related to standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on our disclosures.
    In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, that requires disclosures of disaggregated information about certain prescribed expense categories within relevant income statement expense captions. This standard is effective for annual reporting of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods in the following year, with early adoption permitted. This standard should be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on our disclosures.
    CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to adopt accounting policies related to estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, as well as the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its accounting policies, estimates and judgments, including those related to inventories, valuation of long-lived store assets, claims and contingencies, income taxes and revenue recognition, including revenue associated with our loyalty program. Management bases our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
    There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
    Market Risk
    The market risk inherent in our financial instruments represents the potential loss in fair value, earnings or cash flows arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates. We may use derivative financial instruments like foreign currency forward contracts, cross-currency swaps and interest rate swap arrangements to manage exposure to market risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
    Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
    Our Canadian dollar denominated earnings are subject to exchange rate risk as substantially all our merchandise sold in Canada is sourced through U.S. dollar transactions. Although we utilize foreign currency forward contracts to partially offset risks associated with our operations in Canada, these measures may not succeed in offsetting all the short-term impact of foreign currency rate movements and generally may not be effective in offsetting the long-term impact of sustained shifts in foreign currency rates.
    Further, although our royalty arrangements with our international partners are denominated in U.S. dollars, the royalties we receive in U.S. dollars are calculated based on sales in the local currency. As a result, our royalties in these arrangements are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
    Interest Rate Risk
    Our investment portfolio primarily consists of interest-bearing instruments that are classified as cash and cash equivalents based on their original maturities. Our investment portfolio is maintained in accordance with our investment policy, which specifies permitted types of investments, specifies credit quality standards and maturity profiles and limits credit exposure to any single issuer. The primary objectives of our investment activities are the preservation of principal, the maintenance of liquidity and the maximization of interest income while minimizing risk. Our investment portfolio is primarily composed of U.S. government obligations, U.S. Treasury and AAA-rated money market funds, commercial paper and bank deposits. Given the short-term nature and quality of investments in our portfolio, we do not believe there is any material risk to principal associated with increases or decreases in interest rates.
    All of our outstanding Long-term Debt as of May 3, 2025 has fixed interest rates. We will from time to time adjust our exposure to interest rate risk by entering into interest rate swap arrangements. Our exposure to interest rate changes is limited to the fair value of the debt issued, which would not have a material impact on our earnings or cash flows.
    Concentration of Credit Risk
    We maintain cash and cash equivalents and derivative contracts with various major financial institutions. We monitor the relative credit standing of financial institutions with whom we transact and limit the amount of credit exposure with any one entity. Our investment portfolio is primarily composed of U.S. government obligations, U.S. Treasury and AAA-rated money market funds, commercial paper and bank deposits. We also periodically review the relative credit standing of franchise, license and wholesale partners and other entities to which we grant credit terms in the normal course of business.
    Fair Value Measurements
    The following table provides a summary of the principal value and estimated fair value of our outstanding Long-term debt as of May 3, 2025, February 1, 2025 and May 4, 2024:
    May 3,

     _______________
    (a)    The estimated fair values are based on reported transaction prices and are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we could realize in a current market exchange.
    As of May 3, 2025, we believe that the carrying values of our Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses approximate their fair values because of their short maturities.

    Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
    Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
    Changes in internal control over financial reporting. During the first quarter of 2025, we transitioned to new real-estate management systems to enhance operational efficiency in our lease administration and compliance with lease accounting and reporting standards. We updated our processes to align with the functionality of the new systems and ensured that adequate controls were designed and operating effectively throughout the transition process.
    There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the first quarter of 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

    PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

    Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
    We are a defendant in a variety of lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. Actions filed against the Company from time to time may include commercial, tort, intellectual property, tax, customer, employment, wage and hour, data privacy, securities, anti-corruption and other claims, including purported class action lawsuits. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the eventual outcome of any litigation, in the opinion of management, our current legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
    Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
    The risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We wish to caution the reader that the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and those described elsewhere in this report or other SEC filings could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated in any forward-looking statements.
