Victoria's Secret parent Limited Brands Inc. reported a sharp increase in profits in the fourth quarter as the retailer benefited from cost-cutting and tight inventory controls. Limited, which is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, stated Wednesday it earned $356.1 million, or $1.08 per share, for the quarter ended Jan. 30. That compares with $16.1 million, or 5 cents per share, in the year-ago period.

"The economic environment in 2009 was very challenging," said Chairman and CEO Leslie Wexner in a statement. "We managed inventory, expenses and capital conservatively. We made good progress, but we recognize there is more to do and are very focused on continued improvement."
