S&P lowers L Brands

S&P said it lowered all ratings on L Brands Inc., including the issuer rating to B+ from BB-.

The outlook is negative.

“We believe Columbus, Ohio-based L Brands Inc. will face significant top-line headwinds this year, as restrictive government mandates to contain the coronavirus pandemic lead to temporary store closures, deflated consumer confidence, and a swift and severe drop in discretionary consumer spending,” the agency said in a news release.

“As a result, we expect L Brands' operating performance and credit metrics will be meaningfully weaker than our previous expectations.”
