Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call conveyed a predominantly positive tone: management highlighted a return to profitability, meaningful gross margin expansion, strengthened balance sheet after the Versace sale, significant share repurchases and concrete FY2027 guidance calling for low single-digit revenue growth, ~200 bps gross margin expansion and a 40% increase in EPS. Brand-level momentum at Michael Kors (full-price comp recovery, higher AURs, store renovation benefits) and accelerating Jimmy Choo retail/wholesale trends were emphasized. Key risks and near-term headwinds include the deliberate quality-of-sale actions that trimmed ~ $150M in FY2026 revenue and will weigh on early FY2027 results, continued outlet and wholesale pressures (especially for Michael Kors), Jimmy Choo’s current profitability shortfall, tariff uncertainty and modest FX-driven expense increases. Overall, the positive operational traction, margin improvement and strong capital position outweigh the near-term revenue headwinds and uncertainties.Company Guidance
Return to Profitability and EPS Recovery
Capri returned to profitability in Q4 with net income of $27 million and diluted EPS of $0.22 (versus a loss the prior year). Management expects FY2027 diluted EPS of approximately $2.15, a 40% increase over last year.
Revenue and Q4 Top-Line
Total company revenue in Q4 was $796 million, down 3.7% on a reported basis and down 7% in constant currency (management indicated the Q4 decline was in line with expectations).
Significant Gross Margin Expansion
Company gross margin expanded 490 basis points to 64.8% in Q4 (inclusive of tariff-related adjustments). Management is guiding to ~200 basis points of full-year gross margin expansion in FY2027, with ~300 bps improvement in the first half (ex-tariff noise) and further improvement in the second half.
Tariff Refund Recognized
Company recorded tariff-related benefits: $65 million of IEEPA tariffs paid was addressed, with $40 million recognized as a reduction to cost of goods sold in Q4 and $25 million recorded as a reduction to inventory (to flow through COGS in H1 FY2027).
Balance Sheet Strength and Cash Return
Net debt at quarter end was $222 million compared with ~ $1.4 billion a year ago following the Versace sale. The company repurchased $79 million of shares in Q4 and plans ~$200 million of share repurchases in FY2027 with $921 million remaining repurchase authorization.
Positive Brand Momentum: Michael Kors
Michael Kors showed improving full-price performance: full-price comps turned positive across all regions, AURs increased low double digits, full-price sell-throughs improved and global consumer database grew ~8% YoY. Management expects Michael Kors to drive gross/operating margin expansion and long-term potential to $4 billion revenue with low-20% operating margin.
Positive Brand Momentum: Jimmy Choo
Jimmy Choo exceeded expectations in Q4 with revenue +5.3% reported (flat in constant currency), retail up mid-single digits and wholesale mid-single digits. Jimmy Choo's global database grew ~7% YoY and management expects a return to profitability in FY2027 and long-term revenue potential of $800 million with low double-digit operating margins.
Inventory and Working Capital Progress
Inventory at quarter end was $581 million, down 17% year-over-year, which management cites as disciplined inventory management supporting margin improvement and reduced off-price availability.
Capital Expenditure and Store Renovation Program
FY2026 capex was $63 million; FY2027 capex is expected to be ~ $125 million to support store renovations and IT/digital investments. Management plans ~100 Michael Kors store renovations in FY2027 (and ~150 department store door renovations) and has completed ~35 MK renovations to date with encouraging traffic/sales lifts.
