Many well-known online bloggers pointed out that Victoria's Secret is in decline now, and it is far less brilliant than it once was, and they don’t know where Just lie to netizens.


Victoria's Secret is actually a listed company. Every penny earned by a listed company will be shown on the financial statements. I have studied the company’s financial statements and found that its brand has no operating income in the past five years. Too much change, the total operating income is maintained at about 13 billion US dollars, far surpassing a series of big fashion brands.


During 2020, the stock price of Victoria's Secret even rose from US$8 to US$51 today, a six-fold increase.



But in fact, Victoria's Secret does face a big problem. The company currently has large financing liabilities, which have even exceeded the company’s market value. These liabilities may be due to the failure of the previous expansion plan, or the failure of the company's investment, or the decline of the real economy that caused Victoria's Secret to be heavily indebted.

In 2020, Victoria's Secret has received good positive feedback during the epidemic. In this year when other fashion brands are declining, the overall business The income still maintains a similar operating income, but the brand owes too much debt, and it may take ten years to repay it.



Victoria's Secret now has 68 million followers on Instagram, ranking top among fashion brands, and the unit price of brand products is very convenient to attract customers on the Internet. Consumption, so it still has certain advantages on the Internet.



In general, with the brand's annual sales of more than 10 billion, there is no big problem in maintaining the brand.


However, it is impossible to return to the peak period around 2000, because there are too many debts, and it may take ten years to repay the debts, but ten years is still too long and will happen in the future What things are very unpredictable.
