What To Expect From Victoria's Secret's (VSCO) Q1 Earnings
Intimatewear and beauty retailer Victoria's Secret (NYSE:VSCO) will be reporting results tomorrow morning. Here's what to expect. Victoria's Secret beat analysts' revenue expectations by 1% last quarter, reporting revenues of $2.11 billion, up 1.1% year on year. It was a satisfactory quarter for the company, with a solid beat of analysts' EBITDA estimates but a miss of analysts' gross margin estimates. Is Victoria's Secret a buy or sell going into earnings? Read our full analysis here, it's free. This quarter, analysts are expecting Victoria's Secret's revenue to decline 1.3% year on year to $1.34 billion, improving from the 3.4% decrease it recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $0.04 per share. Analysts covering the company have generally reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Victoria's Secret has missed Wall Street's revenue estimates three times over the last two years. Looking at Victoria's Secret's peers in the apparel retailer segment, some have already reported their Q1 results, giving us a hint as to what we can expect. Urban Outfitters delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 10.7%, beating analysts' expectations by 2.5%, and Gap reported revenues up 2.2%, topping estimates by 1.3%. Urban Outfitters traded up 23% following the results while Gap was down 20.1%. Read our full analysis of Urban Outfitters's results here and Gap's results here. There has been positive sentiment among investors in the apparel retailer segment, with share prices up 27.7% on average over the last month. Victoria's Secret is up 6.3% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $22.64 (compared to the current share price of $23.30). When a company has more cash than it knows what to do with, buying back its own shares can make a lot of sense–as long as the price is right. Luckily, we've found one, a low-priced stock that is gushing free cash flow AND buying back shares.

44. Exotec
Founders: Romain Moulin (CEO), Renaud HeitzLaunched: 2015Headquarters: Croix, FranceFunding: $445.7 million (PitchBook)Valuation: $1.9 billion (PitchBook)Key Technologies: RoboticsIndustry: LogisticsPrevious appearances on Disruptor 50 list: 3 (No. 10 in 2024) Amid the AI boom, many industries are struggling to find the right answer to the question of how human workers and robots best work together to increase productivity. However, in warehouses worldwide, that combination is already finding success, with automation being a key to meeting the modern demands of consumers. French robotics company Exotec has been at the forefront of this push, utilizing hardware and software to build warehouse robotic systems that are used by more than 50 brands, including Gap and Uniqlo. The company's signature product is the Skypod, an automated storage and retrieval system that can eliminate picking and packing zones in a warehouse, instead using robots that can bring orders that have been picked, packed and ready to ship directly to human workers. In February, Exotec announced the commercial launch of its latest Skypod system, which it said can increase the throughput of each station by 50% while also enhancing warehouse storage density by upwards of 30%, enabling upgrades in key metrics such as productivity, speed and error reduction, all critical to meeting the needs of shoppers. Exotec robots hit a major milestone in 2024, with the fleet completing over one million container presentations — a robot retrieving a container, which can fulfill up to four orders, and delivering it to a workstation where it can be processed — on a daily basis across the globe. That continued growth and innovation has helped the company expand into new markets like Austria and South Korea, grow its corporate footprint in the U.S. and Germany, and increase its headcount to 1,300 employees with plans to expand that by another 25% in 2025. It's also helping Exotec land new clients. In March, Exotec announced that it would be building its largest and most intricate robotic deployment to date for Oxford Industries, the owner of brands like Tommy Bahama and Lily Pulitzer. The more than 560,000-square-foot Georgia-based distribution center will utilize more than 450 Exotec robots to process more than 20 million units a year through end-to-end warehouse automation.

Sean Wotherspoon Links With Zellerfeld for 3D-Printed Footwear Line
American sneaker designer, vintage collector, store owner, and digital creatorSean Wotherspoonis celebrated for his pace-setting portfolio in sneaker culture and beyond. Following big-ticket collabs with the likes of adidas, Gap, and Porsche, the footwear aficionado is now launching Sean Double U, an all-new collection with 3D-printed shoe-makerZellerfeld. The line features two silhouettes: a sneaker made for movement, and a mule designed for ease.'Sean Double Uis about the different sides we all have,' saidWotherspoon. 'The sneaker is for motion. The mule is for slowing down. I wanted pieces that move with every version of you.' Both the sneaker and the mule are printed from a single recyclable material without glue, stitching, or factories; and to push the boundaries even further, each pair is custom-fitted through a straightforward foot scan. 'Most companies tell you what you cannot do,'Wotherspoonsaid. 'Zellerfeld built a stack where you design what you want, when you want. We could tweak a design in the morning and hold a prototype by the afternoon. That speed changes everything, not just for me, but for every designer who has ideas and nowhere to take them.' The Sean Double U Sneaker ($189 USD) and Sean Double U Mule ($149 USD) are now available to shop on Zellerfeld'swebstore. Each unit is made to order for each customer. See the designs in the gallery above.
