Capri Holdings Limited Announces First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results
capri_sigximagesxjuly24.jpg
London — August 8, 2024 — Capri Holdings Limited (NYSE:CPRI), a global fashion luxury group, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 ended June 29, 2024.
First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Highlights
Revenue decreased 13.2% on a reported basis and 12.1% in constant currency
Adjusted operating margin of 1.5%
Adjusted earnings per share of $0.04

John D. Idol, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Overall, we were disappointed with our first quarter results as performance continued to be impacted by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. We are continuing to manage our operating expenses and inventory levels carefully in light of the challenging global retail environment. Looking forward, we remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives to deliver long-term sustainable growth across each of our luxury houses."

Mr. Idol continued, "Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors continued to resonate with consumers as evidenced by the 12.6 million new consumers added across our databases, representing 15% growth versus last year. This reflects the strong brand equity and enduring value of our three iconic houses."

Mr. Idol concluded, “Last August Capri Holdings announced that we entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Tapestry. In April, the FTC filed a lawsuit to block the proposed transaction. As we previously stated, Capri intends to vigorously defend this case alongside Tapestry and we look forward to the successful completion of the pending acquisition. This combination will deliver value to our shareholders as well as provide new opportunities for our dedicated employees around the world as Capri Holdings becomes part of a larger and more diversified company. By joining with Tapestry, our brands will have greater resources and capabilities to accelerate the expansion of their global reach while preserving their unique DNA.”

First 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 First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results
Total revenue of $1.07 billion decreased 13.2% compared to last year. On a constant currency basis, total revenue decreased 12.1%. Total company retail sales declined low-double-digits with trends being impacted by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. In wholesale, revenue decreased high-teens driven by softer demand globally.
Gross profit was $689 million and gross margin was 64.6%, compared to $812 million and 66.1% in the prior year. Gross profit margin decreased relative to prior year primarily driven by lower full price sell throughs.
Loss from operations was $8 million and operating margin was (0.7)%, compared to income from operations of $80 million and operating margin of 6.5% in the prior year. Adjusted income from operations was $16 million and adjusted operating margin was 1.5%, compared to $111 million and 9.0% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin reflects lower gross margin and expense deleverage on lower revenue.
Net loss was $14 million, or $(0.11) per diluted share, compared to net income of $48 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income was $4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to $88 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, in the prior year period.
Net inventory as of June 29, 2024 was $902 million, a 23% decrease compared to the prior year reflecting the Company's ongoing diligent inventory management.
Cash flow from operating activities for the first quarter was an inflow of $83 million, while free cash flow was an inflow of $40 million versus an outflow of $10 million last year.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $213 million, and total borrowings outstanding were $1.71 billion, resulting in net debt of $1.50 billion versus $1.70 billion last year.
Versace First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results
Versace revenue of $219 million decreased 15.4% on a reported basis and 14.3% on a constant currency basis compared to prior year. The decline was primarily driven by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. Retail sales decreased high-single-digits while wholesale revenue decreased double-digits. Revenue in the Americas declined 15%, while revenue in EMEA decreased 22% and revenue in Asia declined 3%. Versace’s global database increased by 1.3 million new consumers, representing 20% growth over the last year.
Versace operating loss was $17 million and operating margin was (7.8)%, compared to operating income of $3 million and operating margin of 1.2% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin rate was primarily due to lower full price sell throughs and expense deleverage on lower revenue.





image_1a.jpg
Jimmy Choo First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results
Jimmy Choo revenue of $173 million decreased 5.5% on a reported basis and 3.8% on a constant currency basis compared to prior year driven primarily by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. Retail sales decreased mid-single-digits while wholesale revenue decreased low-single-digits. Revenue in the Americas increased 6%, while revenue in EMEA decreased 5% and revenue in Asia declined 17%. Jimmy Choo’s global database increased by 0.7 million new consumers, representing 13% growth over the last year.
Jimmy Choo operating income was $4 million and operating margin was 2.3%, compared to $16 million and 8.7% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin rate was primarily due to higher store related costs and expense deleverage on lower revenue.
Michael Kors First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results
Michael Kors revenue of $675 million decreased 14.2% on a reported basis and 13.3% on a constant currency basis compared to prior year. The decline was primarily attributable to softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. Retail sales declined low-teens while wholesale revenue decreased high-teens. Revenue in the Americas declined 10%, while revenue in EMEA decreased 21% and revenue in Asia declined 23%. Michael Kors’ global database increased by 10.6 million new consumers, representing 15% growth over the last year.
Michael Kors operating income was $75 million and operating margin was 11.1%, compared to $130 million and 16.5% in the prior year. The decline in operating margin rate was primarily related to lower full price sell throughs and expense deleverage on lower revenue.

Outlook and Conference Call
As previously stated, given the pending merger transaction with a wholly owned subsidiary of Tapestry, Inc. (the "Merger"), 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 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.
