Joanne Crevoiserat, Chief Executive Officer of Tapestry, Inc., said, “Our results significantly outpaced expectations driven by the successful execution of our Acceleration Program. Our sharpened focus on the consumer fueled new customer acquisition across all brands with notable sales gains in Digital and China. Importantly, for the second consecutive quarter, we generated strong operating income growth supported by a reduction in promotional activity and higher AUR, as well as disciplined inventory and expense management. Further, we delivered this profit growth in the face of unprecedented Covid-related external headwinds, including pressured bricks and mortar traffic, store closures and capacity limits, as well as higher freight costs and shipping constraints. I’m incredibly proud of our teams around the world for their unwavering passion, agility, and resilience this holiday season.”

“As we enter the second half of our fiscal year, we are optimistic for the future in spite of the uncertain backdrop. We are listening closely to consumers and responding in real-time to changes in their values, shopping behaviors, and brand engagement. We are leaning into the competitive advantages of our platform, bringing innovation to both product and how we connect with customers. As a result, we are driving demand for our categories and stretching what’s possible for our brands. Looking forward, I am confident that Tapestry will emerge from the pandemic stronger, well-positioned to both capture market share at higher levels of profitability and fully unlock the flywheel of sustainable, long-term growth,” Ms. Crevoiserat concluded.

  • Funded the pay down of $500 million of the Company’s $700 million revolver with positive free cash flow of $697 million year-to-date; paid down remaining $200 million balance subsequent to quarter-end

  • Recruited over 1.5 million new customers in North America across brands through our e-commerce channels, a meaningful increase versus prior year, as we continue to meet consumers where they choose to shop and utilize marketing capabilities to drive engagement and enhance the customer’s digital journey;
  • Leveraged Tapestry’s scale and agility to deliver triple-digit digital growth by expanding our network through added fulfillment capacity and the diversification of parcel carrier partnerships, swiftly adapting to the current environment and navigating market constraints to support increased customer demand;
  • Drove significant growth in China through compelling product assortments, enhanced marketing and expanded reach across direct channels and third party online distribution;
  • Achieved record sales during the 11.11 Global Shopping Festival on Tmall Luxury Pavilion, with Coach as the number one ranked brand in the handbags, luggage, and leather goods category and Stuart Weitzman as the number one ranked footwear brand over this key holiday period;
  • Deployed new data and analytics tools to drive strategic, data-driven decision making to optimize marketing messaging, assortment planning, and promotional levels, supporting higher AUR and conversion rates;
  • Continued to enhance the flexibility of our operating model, with a streamlined organizational structure and empowered teams, while optimizing our global fleet with 18 net closures in the fiscal first half representing a net decrease of 84 stores from the prior year; Remain on track to achieve gross run-rate savings of $300 million, including gross savings of $200 million in fiscal 2021.

Through these initiatives, the Company is better meeting the needs of each of its brands' unique customers to drive engagement and desire for its products, creating a strong foundation for profitable expansion.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation 

During the fiscal second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded the following on a reported basis:

  • Acceleration Program: $22 million of pre-tax charges primarily associated with professional fees incurred as a result of the development and execution of the Company’s comprehensive strategic initiatives, as well as actions to streamline the Company's organization, which includes severance. The Company continues to expect to incur total charges of $185 to $200 million over the life of the Acceleration Program, including $50 to $65 million in remaining charges. The majority of these future costs are estimated to be cash and recorded primarily in fiscal 2021.
  • CARES Act Tax Impact: $3 million of tax benefits under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Securities Act, most notably the NOL carryback claim. This reflects the adjustment to the Company’s provisional estimate.

Taken together, these items decreased the Company’s net income and earnings per diluted share by $12 million and $0.04, respectively. Please refer to the financial tables included herein for a detailed reconciliation of the Company’s reported to non-GAAP results.

Fiscal Year 2021 Outlook 

Due to the dynamic nature of the Covid-19 crisis and lack of visibility, the Company is not providing detailed guidance for fiscal 2021. However, given Tapestry’s better-than-anticipated results in the fiscal first half, and assuming a continued recovery emerging from the pandemic, the Company now expects revenue for the fiscal year to increase at a high-single digit rate on a 52-week basis and in the area of 10% on 53-week basis. This outlook continues to include the expectation for a topline inflection and strong bottom line growth during the second half of the fiscal year.

The Company also notes that fiscal 2021 includes a 53rd week in its fourth fiscal quarter.

(1) Adjustments within Gross profit are recorded within Cost of sales.

The Company reports information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The Company's management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP measures utilized by the Company may be unique to the Company, as they may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The financial information presented above, as well as gross margin, SG&A expense ratio, and operating margin, have been presented both including and excluding the effect of certain items related to the tax benefit the Company received under the CARES Act and the Acceleration Program for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2021 and ERP Implementation and Organization-related & Integration Costs for second quarter of fiscal year 2020 and ERP Implementation, Organization-related & Integration Costs and Impairment for the first six months of fiscal year 2020.

The Company operates on a global basis and reports financial results in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Percentage increases/decreases in net sales for the Company and each segment have been presented both including and excluding currency fluctuation effects from translating foreign-denominated sales into U.S. dollars and compared to the same periods in the prior quarter and fiscal year. The Company calculates constant currency net sales results by translating current period net sales in local currency using the prior year period’s currency conversion rate.

Net sales changes for the Company and each segment are based on absolute sales dollar changes and are not presented in accordance with the Company’s comparable sales definition utilized historically due to the uncertain business environment resulting from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Management utilizes these non-GAAP and constant currency measures to conduct and evaluate its business during its regular review of operating results for the periods affected and to make decisions about Company resources and performance. The Company believes presenting these non-GAAP measures, which exclude items that are not comparable from period to period, is useful to investors and others in evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating and financial results in a manner that is consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance and understanding how such results compare with the Company’s historical performance. Additionally, the Company believes presenting these metrics on a constant currency basis will help investors and analysts to understand the effect of significant year-over-year foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on these performance measures and provide a framework to assess how business is performing and expected to perform excluding these effects.
