NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 9, 2023--Tapestry, Inc. (NYSE: TPR), a house of iconic accessories and lifestyle brands consisting of Coach, Kate Spade, and Stuart Weitzman, today reported results for the fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Joanne Crevoiserat, Chief Executive Officer of Tapestry, Inc., said, “We achieved record first quarter revenue and EPS as we continued to successfully advance our strategic growth agenda against a dynamic external backdrop. Our strong and consistent results demonstrate the power of brand building and customer centricity, underpinned by the creativity of our talented global teams and disciplined execution. During the quarter, we drove revenue gains at constant currency, significant gross margin expansion, and high-teens adjusted EPS growth. Importantly, we continued to invest in our brands and consumer engagement platform, reinforcing our commitment to driving innovation and cultivating lasting relationships with customers around the world.”

“As we move forward, we are in a position of strength with meaningful runway for sustainable growth. Through a relentless drive to fuel brand magic and deliver for our customers, we are confident in our ability to achieve organic top and bottom-line gains, supported by our data-driven, direct-to-consumer operating model that enables speed and agility. These advantages have powered Tapestry’s successful transformation and will unlock enhanced value for our stakeholders for years to come.”

Tapestry, Inc. Financial & Strategic Highlights

Throughout the first quarter, the Company advanced its strategic priorities to:

Build Lasting Customer Relationships

  • Drove customer engagement across brands, acquiring approximately over 1.2 million new customers in North America alone, of which roughly half were Gen Z and Millennials.

Power Global Growth

  • Achieved International revenue growth of 7% at constant currency, fueled by gains of 12% in Japan and 9% in Greater China;
  • Delivered North America revenue approximately in-line with the prior year amid a difficult consumer demand environment, while fueling gross and operating margin expansion;
  • Realized high-teens adjusted earnings per diluted share growth.

Deliver Compelling Omni-Channel Experiences

  • Increased Direct-to-Consumer revenue by 1% at constant currency, supported by the Company’s data and analytics capabilities that continue to enhance each brand’s go-to-market strategies; results led by a low-single-digit increase in stores;
  • Maintained strong positioning in Digital, which represented nearly 25% of revenue, roughly consistent with prior year or approximately three times above pre-pandemic levels.

Fuel Fashion Innovation and Product Excellence

  • Delivered strong innovation, as success in new product and branding elements outperformed and fueled handbag AUR gains globally;
  • Expanded gross margin by 250 basis points, benefiting from lower freight expense and operational outperformance;
  • Maintained tight inventory control, ending the quarter with inventory levels 17% below the prior year, reflecting the Company’s focus on disciplined inventory management and a lower level of in-transits relative to last year.

Overview of Fiscal 2024 First Quarter Financial Results

  • Net sales totaled $1.51 billion, slightly above the prior year. Excluding a 130 basis point headwind from currency due to the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar, revenue increased approximately 2% versus last year.
  • Gross profit totaled $1.10 billion, while gross margin was 72.5%, which reflected a benefit of 150 basis points from lower freight expense, as well as operational improvements. This compared to prior year gross profit of $1.05 billion, representing a gross margin of 70.0%.
  • SG&A expenses totaled $845 million and represented 55.8% of sales on a reported basis. On a non-GAAP basis, SG&A expenses totaled $825 million and represented 54.5% of sales. In the prior year period, SG&A expenses on both a reported and non-GAAP basis totaled $800 million, representing 53.1% of sales.
  • Operating income was $253 million on a reported basis, while operating margin was 16.7%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating income was $273 million, while operating margin was 18.0%. This compares to reported and non-GAAP operating income of $254 million and a 16.9% operating margin in the prior year period.
  • Net interest expense was $13 million on a reported basis and $7 million on a non-GAAP basis. This compared to net interest expense of $7 million in the prior year period on both a reported and non-GAAP basis.
  • Other expense was $1 million. This compared to other expense of $11 million in the prior year period.
  • Net income was $195 million, with earnings per diluted share of $0.84. On a non-GAAP basis, net income was $216 million, with earnings per diluted share of $0.93. In the prior year period, net income was $195 million, with earnings per diluted share of $0.79 on both a reported and non-GAAP basis. On a reported basis, the tax rate for the quarter was 18.2% or 18.3% on a non-GAAP basis. In the prior year period, the tax rate was 17.3% on both a reported and non-GAAP basis.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

  • Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $639 million and total borrowings outstanding were $1.65 billion.
  • Inventory of $943 million was below the prior year’s ending inventory of $1.14 billion.
  • Cash flow from operating activities for the first fiscal quarter was an inflow of $75 million compared to an outflow of $170 million in the prior year. Free cash flow was an inflow of $54 million compared to an outflow of $198 million in the prior year. This included CapEx and implementation costs related to Cloud Computing of $29 million versus $47 million a year ago.

Dividend

The Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per common share payable on December 26, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 8, 2023.

In the fiscal year, Tapestry continues to expect to return approximately $325 million to shareholders through dividend payments for an anticipated annual dividend rate of $1.40 per share, an increase of 17% versus prior year.

Acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited

On August 10, 2023, Tapestry, Inc. announced a definitive agreement to acquire Capri Holdings Limited, establishing a powerful global house of iconic luxury and fashion brands. This acquisition builds on Tapestry’s core tenets as consumer-centric brand-builders and disciplined operators, accelerating its strategic and financial growth agenda. The combination will:

  • Expand the Company’s portfolio reach and diversification across consumer segments, geographies and product categories;
  • Leverage Tapestry’s consumer engagement platform to drive direct-to-consumer opportunity;
  • Unlock opportunity for significant cost synergies;
  • Generate highly diversified, strong, and consistent cash flow;
  • Power continued progress as a purpose-led, people-centered company; and,
  • Create a path to deliver enhanced total shareholder returns.

Importantly, this transaction is expected to deliver strong double-digit EPS accretion on an adjusted basis and compelling ROIC.

The Company is continuing to make progress towards transaction close:

  • On October 25, 2023, the shareholders of Capri Holdings Limited approved the transaction, satisfying one of the conditions to close.
  • Tapestry is working to receive all required regulatory approvals, including responding to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s second request received on November 3, 2023. The Company remains confident in the ability to complete this transaction, with a close expected in calendar 2024, consistent with prior expectations.
  • The Company continues to expect to fund the purchase through a combination of permanent financing, term loans, excess Tapestry cash and anticipated future cash flow, a portion of which will be used to pay certain of Capri’s existing outstanding debt. The Company’s financing strategy will support rapid debt paydown with prepayable debt in order to achieve its stated target of a gross leverage ratio of below 2.5x Debt/ adjusted EBITDA within 24 months post-close given the combined entity’s strong cash flow generation.
  • Finally, integration planning efforts are moving forward as expected and the Company continues to project run-rate cost synergies of over $200 million achieved within three years of closing.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation

During the first fiscal quarter of 2024, Tapestry recorded certain items that decreased the Company’s pre-tax income by $26 million, net income by $21 million, and earnings per diluted share by $0.09. These items relate to acquisition costs, primarily associated with professional and financing fees.

Please refer to Financial Schedule 4 included herein for a detailed reconciliation of the Company’s reported GAAP to non-GAAP results.

Financial Outlook

The Company is maintaining its Fiscal 2024 earnings per share and operating cash flow outlook as a stronger margin improvement is expected to fully offset a more modest revenue growth projection given the expectation for incremental currency headwinds and a more moderate operational outlook for Asia and North America.

Tapestry now expects the following for Fiscal 2024, which replaces all previous guidance and is provided on a non-GAAP basis:

  • Revenue of approximately $6.7 billion, representing a slight increase to prior year on a reported basis. Excluding an FX headwind of approximately 150 basis points, Tapestry expects constant currency revenue growth of 2% to 3% compared to the prior year;
  • Net interest expense of approximately $20 million;
  • Tax rate of approximately 20%;
  • Weighted average diluted share count of approximately 235 million shares;
  • Earnings per diluted share of $4.10 to $4.15, representing approximately 6% to 7% growth compared to the prior year;
  • Free cash flow of approximately $1.1 billion, excluding deal-related costs.

Please note this outlook assumes the following:

  • Excludes revenue or earnings contribution and deal-related costs related to the proposed acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited, which is expected to close in calendar 2024;
  • No further appreciation of the U.S. Dollar; information provided based on spot rates at the time of forecast;
  • A gradual recovery in Greater China;
  • No material worsening of inflationary pressures or consumer confidence; and
  • No benefit from the potential reinstatement of the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP).

Given the dynamic nature of these and other external factors, financial results could differ materially from the outlook provided.

Financial Outlook - Non-GAAP Adjustments:

The Company is not able to provide a full reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP presented in this release and on the Company’s conference call because certain material items that impact these measures, such as the timing and exact amount of acquisition, financing, purchase accounting and integration-related charges and Company costs associated with the acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited have not yet occurred and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort.

(1) There were no items affecting comparability in the quarter ended on October 1, 2022

 

Management utilizes 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.

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 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.

The segment operating income and supplemental segment SG&A expenses presented in the Condensed Consolidated Segment Data, and GAAP to non-GAAP Reconciliation Table above, as well as SG&A expense ratio, and operating margin, are considered non-GAAP measures. These measures have been presented both including and excluding Acquisition costs for the quarter ended on September 30, 2023. In addition, segment Operating Income (loss), Net income (loss), and Net Income (loss) per diluted common share, have been presented both including and excluding Acquisition costs for the quarter ended on September 30, 2023.

There were no items affecting comparability in the quarter ended October 1, 2022.

The Company also presents free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure, Free cash flow is calculated by taking the “Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities” less “Purchases of property and equipment” from the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Company believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash that is available after capital expenditures for operational expenses and investment in our business. The Company believes that free cash flow is useful to investors because it measures the Company’s ability to generate or use cash. Once our business needs and obligations are met, cash can be used to maintain a strong balance sheet, invest in future growth and return capital to stockholders. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Net Income, excluding, Interest expense, Provision for income taxes, Depreciation and amortization, Cloud computing amortization costs, Shared-based compensation and Items affecting comparability including Acquisition and Integration costs.
