Bath & Body Works has raised its full-year profit forecast, anticipating a smaller decline in annual sales due to strong holiday demand and new product launches, including winter fragrances. The company now expects net sales to decrease by 1.7% to 2.5%, an improvement from previous estimates, and reported a 3% sales increase to $1.61 billion for the third quarter, surpassing expectations. Adjusted earnings per share are projected between $3.15 and $3.28, reflecting a positive outlook amid a challenging retail environment.
