Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Highlights

Revenue decreased 16.4% on a reported basis and 16.4% in constant currency
Adjusted operating margin of 3.0%
Adjusted earnings per share of $0.65

John D. Idol, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Overall, we were disappointed with our second quarter results as performance continued to be impacted by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. Despite the challenging global retail environment, we remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives to deliver long-term sustainable growth across all three of our luxury houses.”

Mr. Idol continued, “Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors continued to resonate with consumers as evidenced by the 10.9 million new consumers added across our databases, representing 13% growth versus last year. This reflects the strong brand equity and enduring value of our three iconic houses.”

Mr. Idol concluded, “In August 2023 Capri Holdings announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Tapestry. The District Court recently granted the FTC’s motion for a preliminary injunction to enjoin the transaction pending the FTC’s in-house administrative proceeding. We are disappointed with the decision, and consistent with our obligations under the merger agreement, Tapestry and Capri have jointly filed a notice of appeal.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

Financial Results and non-GAAP Reconciliation

The Company’s results are reported in this press release in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") and on an adjusted, non-GAAP basis. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial information is provided at the end of this press release.

Overview of Capri Holdings Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

Total revenue of $1.08 billion decreased 16.4% on both a reported and constant currency basis compared to last year. Total company retail sales declined high-single-digits with trends being impacted by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. In wholesale, revenue decreased double-digits driven by softer demand globally.
Gross profit was $694 million and gross margin was 64.3%, compared to $832 million and 64.4% in the prior year. Gross profit margin declined 10 basis points with favorable channel mix offset by lower full price sell-throughs.
Loss from operations was $38 million and operating margin was (3.5)%, compared to income from operations of $100 million and operating margin of 7.7% in the prior year. Adjusted income from operations was $32 million and adjusted operating margin was 3.0%, compared to $157 million and 12.2% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin primarily reflects expense deleverage on lower revenue.
Net income was $24 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared to net income of $90 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income was $77 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to $133 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, in the prior year period.
Net inventory as of September 28, 2024 was $984 million, a 10% decrease compared to the prior year.
Cash flow from operating activities for the second quarter was an inflow of $50 million, while free cash flow was an inflow of $23 million versus an outflow of $177 million last year.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $182 million, and total borrowings outstanding were $1.71 billion, resulting in net debt of $1.53 billion versus $1.86 billion last year.

Versace Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

Versace revenue of $201 million decreased 28.2% on both a reported basis and constant currency basis compared to prior year. Retail sales decreased high-teens while wholesale revenue decreased double-digits. Revenue in the Americas declined 33%, while revenue in EMEA decreased 28% and revenue in Asia declined 20%. Versace’s global database increased by 1.1 million new consumers, representing 16% growth over the last year.
Versace operating loss was $3 million and operating margin was (1.5)%, compared to operating income of $35 million and operating margin of 12.5% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin rate was primarily due to expense deleverage on lower revenue.

Jimmy Choo Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

Jimmy Choo revenue of $140 million increased 6.1% on a reported basis and 5.3% on a constant currency basis compared to prior year. Retail sales decreased low-single-digits while wholesale revenue increased double-digits. Revenue in the Americas declined 8%, while revenue in EMEA increased 25% and revenue in Asia decreased 8%. Jimmy Choo’s global database increased by 0.7 million new consumers, representing 13% growth over the last year.
Jimmy Choo operating loss was $5 million and operating margin was (3.6)%, compared to operating loss of $9 million and operating margin of (6.8)% in the prior year. The improvement in operating margin rate was primarily due to expense leverage on higher revenue compared to the prior year.

Michael Kors Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

Michael Kors revenue of $738 million decreased 16.0% on a reported basis and 15.9% on a constant currency basis compared to prior year. Retail sales decreased mid-single-digits while wholesale revenue declined double-digits. Revenue in the Americas decreased 12%, while revenue in EMEA declined 15% and revenue in Asia decreased 43%. Michael Kors’ global database increased by 9 million new consumers, representing 12% growth over the last year.
Michael Kors operating income was $87 million and operating margin was 11.8%, compared to $169 million and 19.2% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin rate was primarily related to expense deleverage on lower revenue.

Outlook and Conference Call

As previously stated, given the proposed merger transaction with a wholly owned subsidiary of Tapestry, Inc. (the “Merger”), and the pending appeal of the District Court's decision to grant the FTC's motion for a preliminary injunction with regards to the transaction, the Company is not providing financial guidance or hosting a conference call.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Constant currency effects are non-GAAP financial measures, which are provided to supplement our reported operating results to facilitate comparisons of our operating results and trends in our business, excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. Because we are a global company, foreign currency exchange rates may have a significant effect on our reported results. We calculate constant currency measures and the related foreign currency impacts by translating the current year’s reported amounts into comparable amounts using prior year’s foreign exchange rates for each currency. All constant currency performance measures discussed below should be considered a supplement to and not in lieu of our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain costs associated with impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, ERP implementation costs, Capri transformation costs and costs related to the Merger. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, among other things, to evaluate its operating performance and in order to represent the manner in which the Company conducts and views its business. The Company believes that excluding these items helps its management and investors compare operating performance based on its ongoing operations. While the Company considers the non-GAAP measures to be useful supplemental measures in analyzing its results, they are not intended to replace, nor act as a substitute for, any amounts presented in its consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies.
