Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On March 17, 2020, the Company issued a press release
announcing a number of actions in response to continued spread of novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”). A copy of the
press release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.
Stores Closures and Remote Work
With the wellbeing of its customers, associates and communities
as its top priority, and to help limit the spread of the Coronavirus, the Company will temporarily close all Bath & Body Works,
Victoria’s Secret and PINK stores in the United States and Canada, effective March 17 through March 29, 2020. Additionally,
home office associates have been asked to work from home if possible. All employees will continue to receive pay and benefits during
the temporary closure period. These decisions will be re-evaluated as new information becomes available regarding the COVID-19
pandemic.
Subsequent to the issuance of the press release,
the Company made the decision to suspend all new e-commerce orders for Victoria's Secret and PINK through March 29, 2020. The Bath & Body Works e-commerce business will continue to operate with prioritization on soaps and hand sanitizers. This business is
fulfilled by a third-party whose ability to continue to perform these services may be affected by developing circumstances.

impacts of COVID-19 on the Company’s business operations, including its duration and its impact on overall demand for merchandise,
the Company is withdrawing the first quarter 2020 earnings guidance issued on February 26, 2020. The Company is not providing an
