Victoria’s Secret & Co. announced a shareholder rights plan after an investor began acquiring a substantial amount of stock in the lingerie retailer.

The plan will issue one right for each share at the close of business on May 29 and be triggered if an investor acquires 15% of outstanding common stock.

It wasn’t adopted in response to a proposal to acquire control of the company, the retailer said.
