Victoria's Secret hired a superstar CEO to turn around the flagging brand. But a 50% stock drop has activist investors circling
As bras go, wireless is winning. On Victoria's Secret's latest earnings call earlier this month, CEO Hillary Super explained that the brand's So Obsessed underwire-free push-up bra was a fast-growing hit, calling it 'a standout,' with 30% year-over-year growth and a 'deep resonance with the millennial customer.' Those comments landed well with Morgan Stanley analyst Alexandra Stratton, who wrote in a subsequent research note that Super seemed to have a better handle on fashion trends than the previous management team. 'Super's commentary demonstrated a deeper understanding of how the intimates industry has evolved in recent years,' she wrote. Several other analysts sprinkled their response to the earnings call with optimistic observations about Super, who has led the lingerie shop since last September and was hired to revamp a brand that has spent the past six years careening from one disaster to the next. And yet the CEO is also contending with a host of problems. Like other retail leaders, Super is navigating Trump's tariffs and uncertainty about consumer spending. The company's stock is down 50% since January, following a December surge on signs of a turnaround. (The share price hovers at $20 at the time of writing, compared to $22 when she took over.) She's also still reeling from the effects of a security breach last month that forced the company to shut down its website for three days. And worst of all, two activist investors—Australia's Brett Blundy, the company's largest shareholder, and hedge fund Barrington Capital—have the retailer in their crosshairs, and have called for an overhaul of its board. Barrington Capital also suggested in an open letter that a reconstituted board needed to evaluate whether Super was the right person for the CEO job. In an email to Fortune, the lingerie company said: 'The board has full confidence in Hillary's vision, leadership, and her ability to unlock the potential of our iconic brands.'Super has laid out a turnaround strategy that includes reasserting the brand's authority in bras, and growing categories like youth-focused PINK, beauty, and sport, while reimagining the company's marketing and sales strategy to better suit the way customers are shopping now. But after a rollercoaster few years, Victoria's Secret finds itself once again at a critical inflection point as it tries to reestablish its place in the wallets and boudoirs of American consumers. Hillary Super's arrival at Victoria's Secret 10 months ago was met with enthusiasm from Wall Street. When the leadership change was announced in August, the company's share price jumped 16%. The board poached Super from Rihanna's Savage X Fenty, where she had been CEO for a year, offering her a compensation package that totalled $18 million for the year, including a signing bonus and a one-time award. Super brought a certain cool factor thanks to her role at Fenty. She also brought vast experience, having spent more than three decades in retail leadership roles, including at Anthropologie, a cult-favorite label and subsidiary of Urban Outfitters, where she spent four years in top roles, including president and global CEO. But with Victoria's Secret, Super inherited a beleaguered brand stained by upheaval and scandal. In its mid-aughts heyday, the company reached a market share of over 30%, and raked in around $8 billion in revenue in 2016 under CEO Sharen Turney. But Turney was dismissed in 2017 and replaced by L Brands owner Les Wexner. Under his leadership, and that of his chief lieutenant, longtime senior leader Ed Razek, the company missed important retail trends like athleisure wear. Its marketing also fell out of step with major cultural shifts, and remained overtly sexual and at the height of the #MeToo in 2019 and 2020, Victoria's Secret became the focus of two scandals involving its male leadership. First, Wexner's close relationship with late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein became a PR liability, along with reporting that Epstein posed as a scout for Victoria's Secret to lure and abuse aspiring models. (Wexner has previously said that he is embarrassed by his ties to Epstein, whom he called 'depraved.') Then, in 2020, the New York Times published a bombshell investigative piece outlining allegations of sexual harassment at the company, specifically involving Rezek. By that time, Victoria's Secret's entire ethos had largely fallen out of favor. L Brands decided to spin off the company, which it did in 2021, separating it from its former sister company, Bath & Body Works. (L Brands has since rebranded as Bath & Body Works.) In 2020, Wexner, who purchased Victoria's Secret in 1982 when it was a small chain of stores on the verge of bankruptcy, stepped down. Once known for turbocharging the careers of models like Karlie Kloss and Heidi Klum, Victoria's Secret went about trying to transform its reputation after Wexner's exit. Under Martin Waters, who was named CEO of the spun-off company, the over-the-top fashion shows featuring diamond-studded fantasy bras were out, and the Victoria's Secret Angels, a rotating group of It-girl models who had become synonymous with the label, were disbanded. Instead, the VS Collective, a group of brand ambassadors of various ethnicities and sizes, known for their careers in sports or technology, would become the face for the brand. But while this top-to-bottom revamp sparked a conversation about feminism and the definition of 'sexy,' it didn't ignite much passion in consumers. The rebranding was deemed inauthentic by some critics, and an overcorrection by others. The company's market share had fallen to 18.7% by 2022. The company changed strategies again while Waters was still in the corner office, and began reclaiming some of its supermodel history, hiring Hailey Bieber and Emily Ratajkowski, and bringing back its fashion shows. In a letter about Waters' departure, the board said he had 'established a foundation for VS&Co to enter its next chapter.' Super is now tasked with finding ways to thread the needle between Victoria's Secret's past and future. On the recent earnings call, the CEO said that she felt the company's marketing had become 'too serious' in recent seasons. 'We have an opportunity to have a more energetic, more joyful expression of VS,' she said. But activists may put a dent in Super's plans. In March of this year, BBRC International Private, an investment company run by Australian billionaire Brett Blundy, increased its stake in Victoria's Secret to about 13%, prompting the retailer to adopt a poison pill to ward off a potential takeover. On June 9, Blundy sent the Victoria's Secret board a letter decrying its oversight of the retailer and its management team. Just a week later, the New York-based hedge fund Barington Capital said it would add to its stake in Victoria's Secret—it's thought to have over 1% now, though the exact figure isn't yet known—as it called for the company to overhaul its board, refocus on the brand's core products, and drop the poison pill. 'Since its spin-off and public listing in 2021, the company has lost over $2.4 billion in shareholder value,' Barington Capital chair and CEO James Mitarotonda wrote in an open letter to the board. Neither Barington Capital nor Brett Blundy's investment company responded to Fortune's request for activist investors feel they know what Victoria's Secret needs. Blundy, the Australian billionaire, has a history in the intimates business and has recently purchased another lingerie brand. His letter to the company called attention to a total stockholder return of -64% since 2021 and what it called 'catastrophic' capital allocation, including the purchase of Adore Me in 2022, which 'has failed to generate meaningful returns.' Barington Capital, meanwhile, has already successfully advocated for changes at Victoria's Secret once, just before it was spun out from L Brands. 'The share price of L Brands increased by 221.5% during our tenure as an advisor to its board of directors,' Mitarotonda wrote in his open letter. Given that Victoria's Secret is one of the world's most iconic brands, the letter said, 'the company should be creating significant long-term value for its shareholders.' 'Victoria's Secret has meaningfully underperformed its peers and the market as a whole since becoming an independent company,' the activist argued, pointing to lackluster growth. He also said Super lacked CEO experience, since her stint at Savage X Fenty only lasted for one year. But Barington's harshest criticisms were for the board and its chair, Donna James, a longtime director at Victoria's Secret. The hedge fund believes the board has the wrong skill sets and needs refreshing. 'Of the current nine directors,' it noted, 'six have presided over the company's decline since its public listing.' Victoria's Secret is pushing back against the activist's claims, pointing to Super's focus on bras, and steady improvements at the company, with momentum growing in its Pink brand, as well as its healthy and beauty division. Although the company lowered its sales guidance for the second quarter when it announced its first quarter results earlier this month, it also reported earnings per share of 9 cents, beating market expectations of 4 cents. At $1.35 billion, sales were slightly ahead of analysts' expectations, while the retailer also reduced its overall losses compared to the same period in the previous year. A Wells Fargo analyst also heralded Super's work at the company, noting that Victoria's Secret saw improved performance in North American sales and PINK brands in the second half of last year, following her hiring. Bloomberg research predicts full-year sales would beat the company's guidance and reach $6.2-$6.3 billion in the second half of this year. And a JPMorgan analyst defined the current moment as 'early in the turnaround.' Some retail-watchers appear ready to give Super the time to prove herself. In a LinkedIn post, Neil Saunders, a retail analyst and consultant, wrote: 'Victoria's Secret is mainly a brand for women. It was run by men for quite some time, and they ultimately made a hash of it.' 'Now Hillary Super is at the helm and is starting to reinvent things. She has been in post for less than a year and has to be given a chance to put her vision into practice. But the carping from activist investors has already begun,' he continued. 'Activist investors are also mostly men. I honestly think that sometimes these finance men should sit down and take a seat, because they don't really understand the women's fashion business.' Other defenders also question whether Super is being judged prematurely. Patricia Lizarraga, managing partner and chief investment officer of Hypatia Capital, which manages an exchange-traded fund invested in public companies run by women, says that she was 'shocked' that activist pressures have arrived so quickly. Then again, she notes, activist investors are more likely to go after women CEOs, according to studies. Interference from activists also appears to be one of many reasons that women have shorter tenures as CEOs. 'We have some real superstars that have turned around fallen brands,' she said, pointing to CEOs like Fran Horowitz, who has led a revival of Abercrombie & Fitch. 'There's a model to follow.' Super has recently hired new senior leaders, including a new chief marketing officer and a new creative director. On the latest earnings call, she referred to her leadership team as the 'super squad,' quoting a fashion magazine's play on her name. Together, the squad will have to move as quickly as possible.

3 Reasons to Buy QLD and 3 Reasons Not To
QLD is an ETF that aims to double the gains of the Nasdaq-100. But it also doubles your losses if the index declines. Its wild swings, dependence on swap contracts, and high expense ratio make it a very risky investment. 10 stocks we like better than ProShares Trust - ProShares Ultra Qqq › ProShares Ultra QQQ (NYSEMKT: QLD) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that tracks the Nasdaq-100 index. But unlike other Nasdaq-100 ETFs, which directly track the index, Ultra QQQ aims to double the performance of the Nasdaq-100. If the Nasdaq-100 rises 1% in a day, the Ultra QQQ should advance 2%. But it also doubles its losses: If the Nasdaq-100 declines 1%, the Ultra QQQ should drop 2%. It tries to consistently double those gains and losses with a mix of swap agreements, options, and other derivatives. Over the past five years, the Nasdaq-100 has rallied 114% as Ultra QQQ's price surged 191%. While it hasn't exactly doubled the Nasdaq-100's return -- since it needs to be constantly rebalanced -- it still outperformed the index by a significant margin. Is Ultra QQQ a good growth play for investors who can stomach the volatility? Let's review the three reasons to buy this ETF -- and the three reasons to avoid it -- to decide. Ultra QQQ might be worth buying for three reasons: The tech sector is booming, its derivatives strategy allows its investors to pursue riskier strategies with less capital, and it could be a useful tool for short-term traders who can stomach a lot of volatility. The Nasdaq-100's biggest companies include Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Apple, and Broadcom. These companies have plenty of exposure to the secular expansion of the cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) markets, and their stocks could continue to beat the market. If that happens, it might be smart to park your cash in an ETF that aims to double those returns. If an investor wants to replicate Ultra QQQ's aggressive strategies on their own, they may need to deploy a lot more cash or take on margin loans to fund their own derivative trades. Simply buying the ETF puts those decisions in the hands of its fund managers -- and frees up investors' cash for other investments. For short-term traders, Ultra QQQ could be a great way to amplify gains from temporary tailwinds, such as economic data, earnings reports, and other news-driven events. Ultra QQQ is a tough ETF to recommend for three reasons: Its dependence on swap contracts is risky, it magnifies losses, and it charges high fees. Ultra QQQ tethers most of its assets to swap contracts. This means that it strikes agreements with banks and other parties to receive double the gain of the Nasdaq-100 on a regular basis. In return, it continues to pay fees and interest to those banks. But if a bank struggles or goes bankrupt, that swap contract could collapse and leave Ultra QQQ empty-handed. It mitigates that counterparty swap risk by diversifying its contracts, but it could face major losses in the event of another credit crunch or financial crisis. The way it doubles the Nasdaq-100's losses also makes it a much riskier investment than other ETFs, such as the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ: QQQ), which simply tracks the Nasdaq-100. While it may be an attractive ETF for short-term traders seeking to magnify their gains, it could easily backfire and burn investors during a market downturn. Lastly, the Ultra QQQ charges a gross expense ratio of 0.97% and a net expense ratio of 0.95%. In comparison, the Invesco QQQ Trust charges a total expense ratio (comparable to the gross expense ratio) of just 0.20%. Therefore, you're paying nearly five times the fees to try to double the Nasdaq-100's gains, but you're exposing yourself to double its downside potential. Warren Buffett famously told investors to be "fearful when others are greedy," and the Ultra QQQ ETF is a pretty greedy play. If you expect the Nasdaq-100 to keep rising and can stomach a lot of near-term volatility, this ETF might be worth nibbling on as a short-term trade. But if you're looking for a diversified, low-cost ETF to hold while sleeping soundly at night, the Ultra QQQ ETF isn't for you. Instead, you should either stick with a straightforward ETF, such as the Invesco QQQ Trust, or a less volatile one that tracks the S&P 500.

3 Brilliant Stocks That Could Soar by 39% to 80%, According to Wall Street
Alibaba's e-commerce and cloud service businesses are starting to make strong recoveries, yet the stock trades at a bargain valuation. Lyft is rolling out new features and just made a potentially game-changing acquisition. RH is back to double-digit percentage growth, and its newer stores are demonstrating outstanding performance. 10 stocks we like better than Alibaba Group › Buying and holding quality stocks is one of the most efficient ways to build wealth. Three Motley Fool contributors believe now is a great time to consider buying shares of Alibaba (NYSE: BABA), Lyft (NASDAQ: LYFT), and RH (NYSE: RH) (formerly Restoration Hardware). What's more, Wall Street analysts also see attractive upsides for these stocks based on their average price targets. Here's why these stocks are poised to soar. (Alibaba): Alibaba is one of the leading e-commerce and cloud service companies in the world. Intensifying competition in China's e-commerce market and regulatory uncertainty have weighed on the stock price over the past few years. But this could also spell significant upside for investors from here as the company continues to see strong demand in its cloud business. The average analyst's 12-month price target of $162 implies a 39% upside from the current share price. The stock trades at a modest forward price-to-earnings multiple of 11.7, indicating that investors are undervaluing its expected growth. Alibaba, like its U.S. counterpart Amazon, is a very tech-centered business. Investments in artificial intelligence (AI), where Alibaba Cloud offers data intelligence services and other AI services for other companies, are driving accelerating growth in its cloud business, with revenue up 18% year over year in the most recent quarter. Alibaba also uses AI in its e-commerce business to understand user behavior, make personalized product suggestions, and manage supply chains. This makes it a formidable competitor, despite its recently weak revenue growth. However, consumer spending is back on the rise in its Taobao and Tmall marketplaces. Overall, Alibaba's revenue growth has accelerated sharply in recent quarters, and it's also reporting improving margins. Analysts expect the company's earnings to grow at an annualized rate of 16% over the next several years. Given the low earnings multiple the stock trades at today, Alibaba could not only reach Wall Street's average 12-month price target but potentially double in value within the next three to five years. Jeremy Bowman (Lyft): Lyft may be a forgotten stock for most investors, and it's easy to see why. Shares of the No. 2 ridesharing company in the U.S. are down nearly 80% from where they stood at its 2019 IPO, as it entered the market overvalued and struggled during the pandemic. However, while it plays second fiddle to Uber, Lyft has innovated with new features, recently made a smart new acquisition, and is building momentum. According to one Wall Street analyst, the stock has an 80% upside currently: Last month, Ivan Feinseth of Tigress Financial gave it a buy rating and boosted his 12-month price target on the stock by $2 to $28. Lyft is in a much stronger position than it was a couple of years ago as the company is both delivering solid growth and has turned profitable. In the first quarter, revenue rose 14% to $1.5 billion while adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) nearly doubled from $59.4 million to $106.5 million. It also posted a small profit of $2.6 million on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis. Among the new products driving growth are price lock, which allows customers to lock in a price for a regular commute, Women+, which allows women riders and drivers to match with each other, and Lyft Silver, a service designed to fit the needs of seniors. Lyft also paved the way for its expansion into Europe by acquiring Freenow, a mobility company that's active in nine countries. Overall, Lyft looks poised to continue its double-digit percentage growth and ramp up its profitability, and the stock looks cheap at a price-to-sales ratio of around 1.1. Jennifer Saibil (RH): RH stock has been driven down by macroeconomic pressures, but the business is bouncing back, and the stock should follow. The company is a luxury furniture retailer that operates around 100 galleries in selected affluent communities, mostly in the U.S., though it has recently been expanding into Europe. It also has robust digital channels. However, its bigger ambition is to grow itself into a diversified global luxury brand, and it already operates several upscale restaurants and experiences, including rentable jets and yachts. While its target demographics are generally more resilient than the mass market, RH hasn't been immune to inflation and economic slowdowns. But even amid sagging sales in recent years, it has continued to launch new merchandise lines and open new galleries. Its next, in Paris, is set to open shortly on the Champs-Élysées. Meanwhile, performance at its U.K. gallery has been fantastic, with sales up 47% over last year in the 2025 fiscal first quarter (which ended May 3) and online demand up 44%. Two German locations that have been open for at least a year demonstrated a 60% increase in demand in fiscal Q1, and RH is experiencing accelerating demand in its locations in Brussels and Madrid. In sum, the retailer seems to have turned a corner. It has reported year-over-year revenue increases for the past four quarters, including double-digit percentage increases for the past two quarters. The fiscal first quarter was phenomenal, with a 12% sales increase and an adjusted operating margin of 7%. Yet RH stock is 75% off its peak. The average target price on Wall Street is 24% higher than today's price, and one analyst expects it to jump 137% higher over the next 12 to 18 months. Trading at the cheap valuation of 13 times forward 1-year earnings, RH stock could be a profitable pick right now for risk-tolerant investors. Before you buy stock in Alibaba Group, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Alibaba Group wasn't one of them.
