Victoria's Secret says cyber incident led to temporary website shutdown

Victoria's Secret on Tuesday disclosed that a security incident relating to its information technology systems had led it to temporarily shutdown its website for a few days last week. The company said it shut down corporate systems and e-commerce website on May 26 and immediately enacted response protocols to contain and prevent unauthorised network access. Its website was restored on May 29. The lingerie maker said the breach did not impact its financial results for the first quarter or cause a material disruption to its operations, but the second quarter could be hit by the additional expenses incurred following the incident. It even said it expects first-quarter sales and adjusted diluted earnings per share to meet or exceed the higher-end of its previously issued forecast. Victoria's Secret, however, delayed its first-quarter results, scheduled on June 5, saying the restoration process of its website prevented employees from accessing certain systems and information needed for the release of the results.

Economy Shrank Less Than Initially Thought in First Quarter

The U.S. economy shrank slightly less in the first quarter than initially thought, new government data showed. Gross domestic product, a broad measure of the goods and services produced across the U.S., contracted at a 0.2% rate in January through March, the Commerce Department said Thursday. The rate is seasonally and inflation-adjusted. The department estimated a month ago that first-quarter GDP contracted at a 0.3% rate. GDP estimates are routinely revised as more data comes in. Imports rose slightly more than initially expected, increasing at a 42.6% annual rate as companies sought to get ahead of tariffs, compared to an earlier estimate of 41.3%. The first-quarter GDP was the first contraction in three years, and the numbers signify how companies were rushing to get ahead of President Trump's announced tariffs.
