It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors. Luckily, Zacks Premium offers several different ways to do both.
Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores, developed alongside the Zacks Rank, are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing methodologies; they also help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics, each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F. The better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform; an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.
Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.
VGM ScoreWhat if you like to use all three types of investing? The VGM Score is a combination of all Style Scores, making it one of the most comprehensive indicators to use with the Zacks Rank. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, which helps narrow down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank, which is a proprietary stock-rating model, employs earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to make building a winning portfolio easier.
It's highly successful, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.8% average annual return since 1988. That's more than double the S&P 500. But because of the large number of stocks we rate, there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
This totals more than 800 top-rated stocks, and it can be overwhelming to try and pick the best stocks for you and your portfolio.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
The direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should always be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy, since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank.
A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

Revenues increased 10.5% year over year to $179 million. Constant-currency revenues increased 9.3%, reflecting solid underlying demand.

A global influencer trip generated nearly 50 million impressions, while curated events for top clients drove a 40% increase in very important client ("VIC") sales.

Stronger sales are translating into improved profitability. Jimmy Choo’s operating income increased to $13 million from $4 million, while operating margin expanded 480 basis points to 7.3%, primarily due to expense leverage on higher revenues. Capri expects Jimmy Choo revenues of approximately $635 million and a low-single-digit operating margin in fiscal 2027.

Key Takeaways Capri Holdings trades at 6.87X forward earnings, below its five-year median and sub-industry multiple.Capri Holdings cut fiscal 2027 revenue guidance to $3.4 billion as Michael Kors faces ongoing pressure.Jimmy Choo's growth and lower leverage strengthen the turnaround, but Michael Kors remains the key test.
Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI - Free Report) looks inexpensive after a steep share-price decline, but the discount reflects a turnaround that is still short of a sustained revenue recovery. The stock trades at 6.87X forward 12-month earnings, well below the Zacks sub-industry’s 13.48X multiple.
The operating picture is improving in important areas. Yet Michael Kors remains under pressure, fiscal 2027 revenue guidance was reduced and external risks could slow the recovery.
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
Capri’s Valuation Makes the Bull Case Hard to IgnoreCPRI shares are down 36.2% year to date and 27% over the trailing 12 months. The current forward earnings multiple is also below the stock’s five-year median of 9.53X, giving value-focused investors a clear reason to keep Capri on the radar.
The first quarter of fiscal 2027 provided some support for that discount-closing case. Adjusted earnings rose 34% year over year to 67 cents per share, while gross margin expanded 200 basis points to 65%. Adjusted operating income increased 40% to $28 million even as revenues declined 3.5% to $769 million.
Balance-sheet risk has fallen sharply following the Versace sale. Capri ended the quarter with net debt of $224 million, down from about $1.5 billion a year earlier. Free cash flow was $48 million, and the company repurchased about $50 million of shares during the quarter.
Turnaround Progress is Real, but Michael Kors is the TestJimmy Choo is providing the clearest evidence of brand momentum. First-quarter revenues increased 10.5% to $179 million, while operating margin expanded 480 basis points to 7.3%. Michael Kors, however, still accounts for most of Capri’s business and posted a 7.1% revenue decline to $590 million.
Capri now expects fiscal 2027 revenues of about $3.4 billion, down from its prior $3.525 billion outlook. The revision reflects inventory delays at Michael Kors, softer EMEA demand and foreign currency headwinds. Management still expects earnings of about $2.15 per share, supported by lower operating expenses, but the reduced sales outlook leaves less room for execution missteps.
Tariff uncertainty, inflation, competitive pressure and weak consumer confidence remain additional risks. The turnaround depends on full-price selling, product innovation, marketing and store renovations translating into durable revenue stabilization without giving back recent margin gains.
Peers Show the Bar for Luxury ExecutionTapestry, Inc. (TPR - Free Report) offers a useful comparison because Coach and Kate Spade also compete for accessories and lifestyle spending. Tapestry reported fiscal 2026 revenues of $8.0 billion and a 23% adjusted operating margin, showing the available profitability when brand momentum and execution are stronger.
Ralph Lauren Corporation (RL - Free Report) also entered fiscal 2027 with healthier top-line momentum. Its first-quarter revenues increased 14% on a reported basis, and the company raised its full-year constant-currency revenue and adjusted operating-margin outlook.
Should Investors Buy CPRI Now?Capri’s valuation is difficult to dismiss, and its lower leverage, margin improvement and Jimmy Choo growth make the turnaround more credible. The central question is whether Michael Kors can return to growth quickly enough to validate the low earnings multiple.
CPRI currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), alongside a Value Score of A, Growth Score of B, Momentum Score of D and VGM Score of A. The strong Value and VGM scores support the stock’s inexpensive profile, while the weak Momentum Score tempers the near-term setup. Because Style Scores are designed to complement the Zacks Rank, the combination favors patience while investors look for firmer evidence of sustained revenue recovery.

Key Takeaways Capri Holdings is revitalizing Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo through product innovation and consumer engagement. Capri Holdings cut fiscal 2027 revenue guidance to about $3.4 billion amid delays and soft EMEA trends.Capri Holdings is using tighter cost controls and a stronger balance sheet to support margin recovery. Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI - Free Report) has been making constant efforts to enhance the customer experience and strengthen engagement with consumers. The company is focused on revitalizing its core brands, Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo, by strengthening brand desirability, improving product offerings and enhancing consumer connections. CPRI’s transformation initiatives are gaining traction and showing encouraging signs.
For Michael Kors, the company is emphasizing more on compelling fashion products, refreshed assortments, improved store experiences and disciplined promotions to restore brand momentum and increase full-price selling. Jimmy Choo is also being positioned for growth through product innovation, particularly in footwear and accessories, along with efforts to expand its global customer base.
In addition, the company is prioritizing operational efficiency and cost discipline to improve profitability. CPRI is working to streamline its cost structure, enhance productivity and better align expenses with its business needs. Following the divestiture of Versace, the company has a more focused portfolio and has used proceeds from the transaction to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce debt, providing greater flexibility to invest in its remaining brands.
Despite such strengths, the company has been struggling with lower revenues for a while, due to sluggishness in its Americas business and the Michael Kors brand. The company expects Michael Kors to return to growth in the second half of fiscal 2027, but the revised outlook shows that the recovery remains vulnerable to execution and demand variability. Management has lowered fiscal 2027 revenue outlook to approximately $3.4 billion from its prior outlook, reflecting inventory delays at Michael Kors, soft EMEA trends and foreign currency adverse impacts.
Nevertheless, Capri Holdings is pursuing a more focused growth strategy centered on Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo, with investments in product innovation, brand elevation, consumer engagement and digital capabilities. These initiatives, combined with tighter expense management and a stronger balance sheet, are aimed at restoring sustainable revenue growth and improving margins over time.

Key Takeaways Capri Holdings cut fiscal 2027 revenue guidance to $3.4 billion despite stronger first-quarter profitability.Capri Holdings expects Michael Kors to return to growth in the second half as products and marketing improve.Jimmy Choo's 10.5% revenue growth and Capri's lower expenses provide support amid a weaker top line.
Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI - Free Report) lowered its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook even as first-quarter profitability improved, underscoring the uneven nature of its turnaround. The company now expects revenues of about $3.4 billion, down from its previous forecast of $3.525 billion.
Management is offsetting the weaker sales view with tighter expense control. Capri still expects fiscal 2027 earnings of about $2.15 per share, representing 40% growth from the prior year, while adjusted operating income is projected at roughly $170 million.
First-quarter fiscal 2027 results showed why profitability remains the brighter part of the story. Revenues fell 3.5% year over year to $769 million, but gross margin expanded 200 basis points to 65%. Adjusted operating income rose 40% to $28 million and adjusted earnings increased 34% to 67 cents per share.

Capri’s revised outlook reflects pressure at Michael Kors, which generated $590 million in first-quarter revenues, down 7.1% year over year. For fiscal 2027, the company now expects Michael Kors revenues of about $2.765 billion. The reduction includes a $50 million hit from second-quarter inventory delays, $50 million from softer EMEA trends and $35 million from foreign currency headwinds.
Management expects the inventory issue to be temporary and is using more air freight to accelerate receipts. Michael Kors inventory was down about 25% year over year at quarter-end, partly because Capri intentionally reduced markdown merchandise. The company still expects Michael Kors revenues to return to growth in the second half as new products, increased marketing and store renovations gain traction.
Jimmy Choo provides a counterweight to the weakness at Michael Kors. First-quarter revenues increased 10.5% to $179 million, with growth across regions and channels. Operating margin improved 480 basis points to 7.3%, and Capri expects the brand to generate about $635 million in fiscal 2027 revenues and return to profitability.
Capri is also relying on cost discipline to protect earnings. The company reduced its fiscal 2027 operating expense outlook by $70 million to about $2 billion and expects gross margin of roughly 64%, compared with 62.3% last year. Lower promotions and better full-price sell-throughs helped first-quarter margins, though tariffs, inflation and weaker consumer confidence remain risks.
The competitive backdrop adds another layer to the execution challenge. Tapestry, Inc. (TPR - Free Report) , the parent of Coach and Kate Spade New York, has continued to emphasize brand building and international growth, making it a relevant benchmark for Capri’s efforts to improve product desirability and full-price demand. American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (AEO - Free Report) offers a broader discretionary-apparel comparison, with its latest quarter showing higher revenues and a sharp improvement in gross margin as the company worked through prior inventory pressures.
Capri’s balance sheet is in a stronger position after the Versace sale. Net debt stood at $224 million at the end of the first quarter, down from about $1.5 billion a year earlier. The company generated $48 million in free cash flow and repurchased about $50 million of shares during the quarter, leaving $871 million under its authorization.
The bottom line is mixed. Capri is demonstrating better earnings quality through higher full-price selling, margin expansion and lower expenses, but the lowered sales forecast shows that the turnaround has not yet translated into a stable top line. Michael Kors remains the key swing factor because it represents most of the company’s revenue base.
CPRI currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), along with a Value Score of A, Growth Score of B, Momentum Score of D and VGM Score of A. The favorable Value and VGM scores support the stock’s value profile, while the weaker Momentum Score points to a less favorable near-term trading setup. With a Zacks Rank #3, the current combination supports a measured stance as investors watch for firmer evidence of sustained revenue recovery.

Did you analyze how Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) fared in its international operations for the quarter ending June 2026? Given the widespread global presence of this luxury retailer, scrutinizing the trends in international revenues becomes imperative to assess its financial strength and future growth possibilities.
The global economy today is deeply interlinked, making a company's engagement with international markets a critical factor in determining its financial success and growth path. It has become essential for investors to comprehend how much a company relies on these foreign markets, as this understanding reveals the firm's potential for consistent earnings, its capacity to harness different economic cycles, and its overall growth prospects.
Presence in international markets can act as a hedge against domestic economic downturns and provide access to faster-growing economies. However, this diversification also brings complexities due to currency fluctuations, geopolitical risks and differing market dynamics.
Upon examining CPRI's recent quarterly performance, we noticed several interesting patterns in the revenue generated from its international segments, which are commonly analyzed and observed by Wall Street experts.
The company's total revenue for the quarter amounted to $769 million, showing decrease of 3.5%. We will now explore the breakdown of CPRI's overseas revenue to assess the impact of its international operations.
Exploring CPRI's International Revenue PatternsDuring the quarter, Asia contributed $115 million in revenue, making up 15% of the total revenue. When compared to the consensus estimate of $111.08 million, this meant a surprise of +3.53%. Looking back, Asia contributed $117 million, or 14.7%, in the previous quarter, and $110 million, or 13.8%, in the same quarter of the previous year.
EMEA generated $224 million in revenues for the company in the last quarter, constituting 29.1% of the total. This represented a surprise of -4.3% compared to the $234.06 million projected by Wall Street analysts. Comparatively, in the previous quarter, EMEA accounted for $246 million (30.9%), and in the year-ago quarter, it contributed $228 million (28.6%) to the total revenue.
Revenue Projections for Overseas MarketsIt is projected by analysts on Wall Street that Capri Holdings will post revenues of $780.5 million for the ongoing fiscal quarter, a decline of 8.8% from the year-ago quarter. The expected contributions from Asia and EMEA to this revenue are 13.4%, and 33.6%, translating into $104.61 million, and $261.9 million, respectively.
For the full year, the company is expected to generate $3.46 billion in total revenue, down 0.5% from the previous year. Revenues from Asia and EMEA are expected to constitute 13.1% ($452.62 million), and 29.5% ($1.02 billion) of the total, respectively.

With the increasing intricacies of global interdependence and geopolitical strife, Wall Street analysts meticulously observe these patterns, especially for companies with an international footprint, to tweak their forecasts of earnings. Importantly, several additional factors, such as a company's domestic market status, also impact these earnings forecasts.

« PREVIOUS HEADLINEKratos Defense & Security Solutions (NASDAQ:KTOS) Shares Up 3.7% Following Analyst Upgrade
Capri Holdings (CPRI) trades at low headline multiples but lacks true luxury brand resilience, with ongoing revenue and management concerns. CPRI's apparent cheapness is distorted by large, opaque currency hedges; normalized P/E is closer to 11x, not as attractive for a struggling business. Michael Kors' strategy shift to reduce promotions hasn't yet reversed negative sales trends, while Jimmy Choo shows modest but insufficient recovery.
Key Takeaways CPRI topped Q1 earnings and revenue estimates despite a 3.5% year-over-year sales decline.CPRI expanded gross margin through stronger full-price selling and lower tariff rates.CPRI lowered its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook on Michael Kors inventory delays and softer EMEA trends.

Both metrics surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate.

CPRI's Margin & Cost PerformanceGross profit edged down 0.4% year over year to $500 million from $502 million. Gross margin expanded 200 basis points to 65% from 63% in the prior-year period, supported by stronger full-price sell-throughs and lower tariff rates despite lower sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses declined 0.9% year over year to $451 million from $455 million.
Adjusted operating income increased 40% year over year to $28 million from $20 million. Adjusted operating margin improved 110 basis points to 3.6% from 2.5% in the previous year period.
CPRI Sees Mixed Regional Revenue TrendsRevenues in the Americas fell 6.3% to $430 million from $459 million and exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $408 million. Revenues in EMEA slipped 1.8% to $224 million from $228 million and came in below the consensus estimate of $234 million, reflecting softer European trends, reduced tourist traffic and disruption related to the conflict in the Middle East.
Asia revenues increased 4.5% to $115 million from $110 million, ahead of the consensus estimate of $111 million. Management also noted positive full-price comparable sales for Michael Kors in China.
Capri Holdings' Michael Kors Sales DeclineMichael Kors revenues decreased 7.1% year over year to $590 million from $635 million but exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $585 million. Revenues in the Americas declined 9.9% to $372 million from $413 million, EMEA revenues fell 5.3% to $142 million from $150 million, while Asia revenues increased 5.6% to $76 million from $72 million.
Gross profit declined 2.8% year over year to $377 million from $388 million. Gross margin expanded 280 basis points to 63.9% from 61.1% in the previous year period, benefiting from higher full-price sell-throughs and lower tariff rates.
Operating income decreased 12.7% year over year to $55 million from $63 million, while operating margin narrowed 60 basis points to 9.3% from 9.9%, as expense deleverage associated with lower revenues more than offset the gross-margin improvement. Operating income remained above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $51 million.
CPRI Benefits From Jimmy Choo MomentumJimmy Choo revenues increased 10.5% year over year to $179 million from $162 million, exceeding the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $166 million.

Retail and wholesale revenues both increased at low-double-digit rates, supported by broad-based growth across regions and product categories.
Capri Holdings Reports Lower Debt and Inventory LevelsCapri ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $114 million compared with $129 million a year earlier. Total borrowings stood at $338 million, with a net debt of $224 million.
Operating cash flow was $ 73 million for the first quarter, with free cash flow of $48 million. Capital expenditure was $ 25 million.
Inventory declined year over year to $624 million from $779 million. In the quarter, the company repurchased about 2.6 million shares for $50 million, leaving $871 million available under its authorization.
CPRI’s Future OutlookCapri Holdings lowered its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook, now expecting approximately $3.4 billion compared with its previous forecast of $3.525 billion. The revision reflects an estimated $50 million impact from inventory delays at Michael Kors, a $50 million hit from softer trends in the EMEA region related to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and a $35 million foreign currency headwind. The company also reduced its operating income outlook to approximately $170 million from $190 million previously, while maintaining its earnings per share expectation of about $2.15 and an effective tax rate in the low-teens range. Net interest and other income guidance was raised to approximately $100 million from the earlier expectation of $85-$90 million.
At the brand level, Michael Kors' revenue outlook was lowered to approximately $2.765 billion from $2.9 billion, while Jimmy Choo's revenue forecast was increased to approximately $635 million from $625 million.
For the second quarter of fiscal 2027, Capri expects revenues of approximately $780 million. The outlook reflects inventory delays at Michael Kors, softer trends in EMEA, foreign currency headwinds and the timing shift of wholesale shipments that benefited the first quarter. The company expects operating income of about $10 million and earnings per share of approximately 20 cents.
Michael Kors is projected to generate roughly $645 million in revenues with a high-single-digit operating margin, while Jimmy Choo is expected to produce about $135 million in revenues with a negative mid-single-digit operating margin.

Get Capri alerts:
Tapestry Stock Drops After Strong Quarter and Raised OutlookChairman and Chief Executive Officer John Idol said the quarter reflected progress in the company’s effort to improve the quality of sales through reduced promotional activity, fewer third-party sales and lower off-price shipments.
“We are encouraged by our first quarter results, which exceeded our expectations and demonstrated the progress we are making to build a stronger and more profitable business,” Idol said.
Michael Kors Revenue Falls as Jimmy Choo Extends Growth After a Huge Rally, Is There Any Upside Left for Ralph Lauren Stock? Michael Kors revenue declined 7.1% to $590 million in the quarter, though the result was ahead of Capri’s expectations. The brand’s retail business was affected by softer trends in EMEA late in the quarter, store closures and the company’s planned reduction in markdown inventory. Global Michael Kors retail sales declined by a high-single-digit percentage.
By region, Michael Kors revenue declined 10% in the Americas and 5% in EMEA, while Asia revenue increased 6%. Idol said full-price comparable sales remained positive in North America and Asia, including China, but EMEA was pressured by conflict in the Middle East and lower tourist traffic in Europe.
Michael Kors wholesale revenue declined by a low-single-digit percentage but exceeded expectations. At the point of sale, the company reported positive comparable-store trends among wholesale partners, led by a double-digit increase in accessories.
Jimmy Choo continued to gain momentum, reporting revenue growth of 10.5% to $179 million, or 9.3% in constant currency. Retail and wholesale revenue each increased by a low-double-digit percentage. Sales rose 26% in the Americas, 5% in EMEA and 3% in Asia.
Idol said Jimmy Choo’s growth was broad-based across regions, channels and categories. Accessories sales rose by a double-digit percentage, led by the Cinch and Bon Bon bag franchises, while the company also cited demand for casual footwear and newer styles. Jimmy Choo’s global consumer database increased 7% year over year, according to the company.
Margins Expand Despite Lower Sales Capri’s gross margin increased 200 basis points to 65%, driven primarily by higher full-price sell-throughs and lower tariff rates compared with the prior-year period. Michael Kors gross margin rose 280 basis points to 63.9%, while Jimmy Choo gross margin declined to 68.7% from 70.4%, primarily due to channel mix.
Operating expenses fell by $10 million, reflecting cost-savings actions that more than offset inflationary pressure. Still, operating expenses rose as a percentage of revenue to 61.4% from 60.5% because of lower sales.
Michael Kors operating margin was 9.3%, down 60 basis points year over year, while Jimmy Choo operating margin rose 480 basis points to 7.3%. Capri said Jimmy Choo is positioned to return to profitability for the full fiscal year, supported by revenue growth, gross-margin expansion and expense discipline.
The company ended the quarter with $114 million in cash and $338 million in debt, resulting in net debt of $224 million, down from approximately $1.5 billion a year earlier. Capri repurchased approximately $50 million of shares during the quarter and had $871 million remaining under its authorization.
Revenue Outlook Reduced; EPS Target Maintained Capri lowered its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook to approximately $3.4 billion. It now expects Michael Kors revenue of about $2.765 billion and Jimmy Choo revenue of about $635 million.
Chief Financial and Chief Operating Officer Tyler Reddien said lower-than-expected inventory at Michael Kors was primarily tied to delayed receipts and longer transit times caused by congestion at certain Asian ports. The company expects second-quarter inventory to decline by a high-single-digit percentage and is using selective air freight to accelerate deliveries.
The company expects the inventory situation to be temporary, with inventory building again during the second half to support anticipated revenue growth. Capri expects Michael Kors revenue to return to growth in the back half of fiscal 2027, aided by product introductions, higher marketing investment, normalizing promotional comparisons and store renovations.
Fiscal 2027 revenue guidance: approximately $3.4 billion Fiscal 2027 operating income guidance: approximately $170 million Fiscal 2027 diluted EPS guidance: approximately $2.15 Second-quarter revenue guidance: approximately $780 million Second-quarter diluted EPS guidance: approximately $0.20 Capri reduced its expected annual operating expenses by $70 million to approximately $2 billion while preserving planned spending on marketing, store refurbishments, digital initiatives and information technology. The company expects full-year gross margin of about 64%, based on assumed U.S. tariff rates of 10% to 12.5% on imported products as of July 24.
For the second quarter, Capri expects Michael Kors revenue of approximately $645 million, including an estimated $50 million impact from lower inventory, $15 million from softer EMEA trends, $10 million from foreign exchange and a $10 million wholesale-shipment timing effect that benefited the first quarter.
Idol said the company expects the largest improvement in the second half to come from North America, where Michael Kors full-price comparable sales and wholesale point-of-sale trends have improved. However, he said Capri does not expect EMEA conditions to improve in its outlook and has adjusted guidance accordingly.

Those risks and uncertainties are described in today's press release and in the company's SEC filings, which are available on the company's website.

For the quarter ended June 2026, Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) reported revenue of $769 million, down 3.5% over the same period last year. EPS came in at $0.67, compared to $0.50 in the year-ago quarter.
The reported revenue represents a surprise of +2.51% over the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $750.2 million. With the consensus EPS estimate being $0.40, the EPS surprise was +67.5%.
While investors closely watch year-over-year changes in headline numbers -- revenue and earnings -- and how they compare to Wall Street expectations to determine their next course of action, some key metrics always provide a better insight into a company's underlying performance.
Since these metrics play a crucial role in driving the top- and bottom-line numbers, comparing them with the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated about them helps investors better project a stock's price performance.
Here is how Capri Holdings performed in the just reported quarter in terms of the metrics most widely monitored and projected by Wall Street analysts:
Geographic Revenue- Americas (United States, Canada and Latin America): $430 million versus the two-analyst average estimate of $408.06 million. The reported number represents a year-over-year change of -6.3%.Geographic Revenue- Asia: $115 million versus $111.08 million estimated by two analysts on average. Compared to the year-ago quarter, this number represents a +4.6% change.Geographic Revenue- EMEA: $224 million compared to the $234.06 million average estimate based on two analysts. The reported number represents a change of -1.8% year over year.Revenue- Jimmy Choo: $179 million versus $166.38 million estimated by three analysts on average. Compared to the year-ago quarter, this number represents a +10.5% change.Revenue- Michael Kors: $590 million compared to the $585.42 million average estimate based on three analysts. The reported number represents a change of -7.1% year over year.Income from operations- Michael Kors: $55 million versus $50.5 million estimated by two analysts on average.Income from operations- Jimmy Choo: $13 million versus the two-analyst average estimate of $4 million.View all Key Company Metrics for Capri Holdings here>>>
Shares of Capri Holdings have returned -14.9% over the past month versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +3.5% change. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), indicating that it could perform in line with the broader market in the near term.
Capri Holdings cut its annual revenue forecast on Wednesday, citing second-quarter inventory delays at its key Michael Kors brand and softer demand for its pricey handbags and accessories in some markets.
Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.67 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.4 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.5 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +67.50%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this luxury retailer would post earnings of $0.11 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.22, delivering a surprise of +100%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.
Capri Holdings, which belongs to the Zacks Retail - Apparel and Shoes industry, posted revenues of $769 million for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.51%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $797 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Capri Holdings shares have lost about 32.3% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 13%.
What's Next for Capri Holdings?While Capri Holdings has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Capri Holdings was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.44 on $860.22 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $2.06 on $3.52 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Retail - Apparel and Shoes is currently in the top 40% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Figs (FIGS - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on August 6.
This health care apparel company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.07 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +75%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
Figs' revenues are expected to be $186.09 million, up 21.9% from the year-ago quarter.
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Capri Holdings Limited (NYSE:CPRI), a global fashion luxury group, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 ended June 27, 2026.
First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Highlights from Continuing Operations
Revenue decreased 3.5% on a reported basis and 4.1% in constant currency Operating margin was 2.2%; adjusted operating margin was 3.6% Earnings per share were $0.60; adjusted earnings per share were $0.67 John D. Idol, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are encouraged by our first quarter results, which exceeded our expectations and demonstrated the progress we are making to build a stronger and more profitable business. Our strategic initiatives across both Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo are driving deeper consumer engagement through enhanced brand storytelling and compelling product innovation."
Mr. Idol continued, "As we look at the balance of fiscal 2027 we expect Jimmy Choo to continue to grow and return to profitability. At Michael Kors certain headwinds including lower than anticipated inventory levels in the second quarter, softer trends in EMEA and updated foreign currency exchange rate assumptions are impacting our revenue outlook. As a result we now expect fiscal 2027 revenue of approximately $3.4 billion. Based on our revised revenue expectations we are taking actions to reduce operating expenses which are enabling us to maintain our fiscal 2027 earnings per share outlook of approximately $2.15, representing 40% growth over the prior year."
Mr. Idol concluded, "Looking beyond fiscal 2027 the opportunity for Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo remains significant. As our strategic initiatives continue to gain momentum, Capri Holdings is well positioned to drive sustainable growth, enhance profitability and create meaningful long-term value for our shareholders."
First Quarter Fiscal 2027 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.
As previously disclosed, on April 10, 2025, the Company and Prada S.p.A. (“Prada”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) whereby Prada agreed to acquire certain subsidiaries of the Company which operate the Company’s Versace business. As a result, the Company classified the results of operations and cash flows of its Versace business as discontinued operations in its consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. The related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations were classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 28, 2025. On December 2, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its Versace business. Unless otherwise noted, the discussion below, including analysis of financial condition and results of operations, relates only to continuing operations.
Overview of Capri Holdings First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Results
Total revenue of $769 million decreased 3.5% compared to last year. On a constant currency basis, total revenue decreased 4.1%. Gross profit was $500 million and gross margin was 65.0%, compared to $502 million and 63.0% in the prior year. The 200 basis point increase in gross margin was primarily driven by higher full-price sell-throughs and lower tariff rates relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Income from operations was $17 million and operating margin was 2.2%, compared to income from operations of $16 million and operating margin of 2.0% in the prior year. Adjusted income from operations was $28 million and adjusted operating margin was 3.6%, compared to $20 million and 2.5% in the prior year. Net income was $69 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to net income of $56 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, in the prior year. Adjusted net income was $76 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, compared to $60 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, in the prior year. Net inventory as of June 27, 2026 was $624 million, a 20% decrease compared to the prior year. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the first quarter was $73 million, while capital expenditures were $25 million, resulting in free cash flow of $48 million. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $114 million, and total borrowings outstanding were $338 million, resulting in net debt of $224 million as of June 27, 2026 versus $1.5 billion as of June 28, 2025. Michael Kors First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Results
Michael Kors revenue of $590 million decreased 7.1% compared to last year. On a constant currency basis, Michael Kors revenue declined 7.6%. Approximately $10 million of revenue was attributable to earlier than anticipated timing of wholesale shipments. Michael Kors gross profit was $377 million and gross margin was 63.9%, compared to $388 million and 61.1% in the prior year. The 280 basis point increase in gross margin was primarily driven by higher full-price sell-throughs and lower tariff rates relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Michael Kors operating income was $55 million and operating margin was 9.3%, compared to $63 million and 9.9% in the prior year. The 60 basis point decline in operating margin was primarily due to expense deleverage on lower revenue. Jimmy Choo First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Results
Jimmy Choo revenue of $179 million increased 10.5% compared to last year. On a constant currency basis, Jimmy Choo revenue increased 9.3%. Jimmy Choo gross profit was $123 million and gross margin was 68.7%, compared to $114 million and 70.4% in the prior year. The 170 basis point decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by channel mix. Jimmy Choo operating income was $13 million and operating margin was 7.3%, compared to operating income of $4 million and operating margin of 2.5% in the prior year. The 480 basis point increase in operating margin was primarily due to expense leverage on higher revenue. Share Repurchase Program
During the fiscal first quarter, the Company spent $50 million to repurchase approximately 2.6 million ordinary shares in open market transactions at an average cost of approximately $19.31 per share. As of June 27, 2026 the remaining availability under the Company's share repurchase program was $871 million.
Outlook
The following guidance is provided on an adjusted, non-GAAP basis. Guidance assumes an incremental 10% tariff rate on imports into the United States through July 24, 2026 and 10% to 12.5% thereafter. Financial results could differ materially from the current outlook due to a number of external events which are not reflected in our guidance, including changes in global macroeconomic conditions, incremental tariff rates in excess of our assumptions, greater than anticipated inflationary pressures or weakening consumer confidence, and further considerable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Fiscal Year 2027 Outlook
For Capri Holdings, the Company now expects the following:
Total revenue of approximately $3.4 billion impacted by approximately $50 million from lower than anticipated second quarter revenue at Michael Kors due to inventory delays, $50 million from softer trends in EMEA due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and $35 million from foreign currency headwinds relative to our prior expectation. Operating income of approximately $170 million Net interest and other income of approximately $100 million Effective tax rate in the low-teens range Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 110 million Diluted earnings per share of approximately $2.15 For Michael Kors, the Company expects the following:
Total revenue of approximately $2.765 billion Operating margin in the low-double-digit range For Jimmy Choo, the Company expects the following:
Total revenue of approximately $635 million Operating margin in the low-single-digit range Second Quarter Fiscal 2027 Outlook
For Capri Holdings, the Company expects the following:
Total revenue of approximately $780 million impacted by approximately $50 million associated with inventory delays at Michael Kors, $15 million from softer than previously anticipated trends in EMEA, $10 million from foreign currency headwinds and $10 million related to the timing shift of wholesale shipments that benefited the first quarter. Operating income of approximately $10 million Net interest and other income of approximately $25 million Effective tax rate in the mid-30% range Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 112 million Diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.20 For Michael Kors, the Company expects the following:
Total revenue of approximately $645 million Operating margin in the high-single-digit range For Jimmy Choo, the Company expects the following:
Total revenue of approximately $135 million Operating margin in the negative mid-single-digit range The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial outlook to the corresponding GAAP measures presented in this press release and on the Company’s conference call without unreasonable effort due to the challenge in quantifying various significant items, including, but not limited to, foreign currency fluctuations, taxes, increased tariffs, and any future restructuring and other charges and expenses.
Conference Call Information
A conference call to discuss first quarter fiscal 2027 results is scheduled for today, August 5, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. ET. A live webcast of the conference call will be available on the Company's website, www.capriholdings.com. In addition, a replay will be available shortly after the conclusion of the call and remain available until August 12, 2026. To access the telephone replay, listeners should dial 1 (844) 512-2921 or 1 (412) 317-6671 for international callers. The access code for the replay is 13758328. A replay of the webcast will also be available within two hours of the conclusion of the 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. The Company believes presenting metrics on a constant currency basis will help investors to understand the effect of significant year-over-year foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and provide a framework to assess how the business is performing and expected to perform excluding these effects. 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 in this press release should be considered a supplement to and not in lieu of our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company also presents free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated by taking net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures for the period. The Company believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity measure of cash that is available after giving effect to our capital and strategic plans, and that it is useful to investors because it measures the Company’s ability to generate cash. Additionally, this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain one-time, non-recurring costs associated with restructuring activities, our store renovation plan, merger and divestiture transactions and Capri transformation initiatives. 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, which are not comparable from period to period, helps investors compare operating and financial performance in a manner consistent with management's evaluation of ongoing business performance. 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.

It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors. Luckily, Zacks Premium offers several different ways to do both.
The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores is a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on three popular investing types, and were developed as complementary indicators for the Zacks Rank. This combination helps investors choose securities with the highest chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics. Just like in school, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on -- that means the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreFor value investors, it's all about finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value before the broader market catches on. The Value Style Score utilizes ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to help pick out the most attractive and discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.
Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.
VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank, which is a proprietary stock-rating model, employs earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to make building a winning portfolio easier.
Investors can count on the Zacks Rank's success, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.94% average annual return since 1988, more than double the S&P 500's performance. But the model rates a large number of stocks, and there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
With more than 800 top-rated stocks to choose from, it can certainly feel overwhelming to pick the ones that are right for you and your investing journey.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
As mentioned above, the Scores are designed to work with the Zacks Rank, so any change to a company's earnings outlook should be a deciding factor when picking which stocks to buy.
A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.
Stock to Watch: Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) Capri Holdings Limited operates in the global personal luxury goods industry through two fashion luxury houses: Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. The company designs, markets and distributes luxury accessories, footwear and apparel through retail stores, e-commerce sites, and wholesale partners, supported by product and geographic licensing agreements. The company sells across three principal geographic markets: the Americas, EMEA and Asia. E-commerce represented approximately 21% of net revenues in fiscal 2026.
CPRI is a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of A.
It also boasts a Value Style Score of A thanks to attractive valuation metrics like a forward P/E ratio of 7.7; value investors should take notice.
For fiscal 2027, one analyst revised their earnings estimate upwards in the last 60 days, and the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.05 to $2.06 per share. CPRI boasts an average earnings surprise of +66.8%.
With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Value and VGM Style Scores, CPRI should be on investors' short list.
Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) is expected to deliver a year-over-year decline in earnings on lower revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. This widely-known consensus outlook gives a good sense of the company's earnings picture, but how the actual results compare to these estimates is a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price.
The stock might move higher if these key numbers top expectations in the upcoming earnings report, which is expected to be released on August 5. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.
While the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call, it's worth handicapping the probability of a positive EPS surprise.
Zacks Consensus EstimateThis luxury retailer is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.40 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -20%.
Revenues are expected to be $751.8 million, down 5.7% from the year-ago quarter.
Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.75% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.
Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change.
Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core.
The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.
Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.
A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.
Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).
How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for Capri Holdings?For Capri Holdings, the Most Accurate Estimate is lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bearish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of -1.89%.
On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #3.
So, this combination makes it difficult to conclusively predict that Capri Holdings will beat the consensus EPS estimate.
Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?While calculating estimates for a company's future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.
For the last reported quarter, it was expected that Capri Holdings would post earnings of $0.11 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.22, delivering a surprise of +100.00%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates three times.
Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.
That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.
Capri Holdings doesn't appear a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.

Investors in Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI - Free Report) need to pay close attention to the stock based on moves in the options market lately. That is because the Aug. 21, 2026 $7.5 Call had some of the highest implied volatility of all equity options today.
What is Implied Volatility?Implied volatility shows how much movement the market is expecting in the future. Options with high levels of implied volatility suggest that investors in the underlying stocks are expecting a big move in one direction or the other. It could also mean there is an event coming up soon that may cause a big rally or a huge sell-off. However, implied volatility is only one piece of the puzzle when putting together an options trading strategy.
What do the Analysts Think?Clearly, options traders are pricing in a big move for Capri Holdings shares, but what is the fundamental picture for the company? Currently, Capri Holdings is a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) in the Retail - Apparel and Shoes industry that ranks in the Top 21% of our Zacks Industry Rank. Over the last 60 days, three analysts have increased their earnings estimates for the to-be-reported quarter, while one has dropped the estimates. The net effect has taken our Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter from 39 cents per share to 44 cents in that period.
Given the way analysts feel about Capri Holdings right now, this huge implied volatility could mean there’s a trade developing. Oftentimes, options traders look for options with high levels of implied volatility to sell premium. This is a strategy many seasoned traders use because it captures decay. At expiration, the hope for these traders is that the underlying stock does not move as much as originally expected.
Capri's Turnaround Is Taking Shape, But Is the Stock a Buy Yet?Capri NYSE: CPRI executives said the company is entering a more focused phase after the sale of Versace, with management emphasizing growth plans for Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo, store renovations, tighter product assortments and a stronger balance sheet.
Speaking at Bernstein’s Retail Forum in New York, Capri Chief Executive Officer John Idol and Chief Financial Officer Tyler Reddien outlined the company’s efforts to reposition Michael Kors, expand Jimmy Choo and return the business to growth. The discussion was hosted by Bernstein analyst Aneesha Sherman.
Get Capri alerts:
Tapestry Stock Drops After Strong Quarter and Raised OutlookIdol said Capri ended the year with “a little over $200 million in debt,” giving the company flexibility to invest in its remaining two brands. He said management believes Michael Kors can return to approximately $4 billion in revenue from an estimated $2.93 billion this year, while Jimmy Choo can grow to $800 million from roughly $600 million.
Michael Kors Repositioning Remains in Early Stages Idol said Capri decided to take a “more modern lens” to Michael Kors in an effort to attract younger consumers, including Gen Z and parts of the millennial cohort. The company has leaned into the “Jet Set” concept, which Idol described as a mindset tied to travel, style and aspiration.
After a Huge Rally, Is There Any Upside Left for Ralph Lauren Stock? The company has also shifted its marketing strategy through “hotel stories” campaigns, including Ibiza, Rome and Saint-Tropez, while increasing its use of social media. Idol said Michael Kors now has more than 400 influencers working with the brand.
On product, Idol said Michael Kors has narrowed its full-price focus around three handbag icons: Nolita, Hamilton and Laila. Those groups now represent about 50% to 60% of full-price sales, he said. The company has reduced SKUs, sharpened storytelling and introduced more accessories priced under $200 to appeal to younger shoppers.
Idol said Michael Kors had raised prices by 20% to 25% coming out of COVID, which contributed to lower sell-throughs and higher markdowns. The brand has since moved closer to its historical pricing in the full-price channel, which he said has improved full-price sell-throughs and average unit retails because the company is taking fewer markdowns.
“We’re still in the very early innings,” Idol said of the repositioning, adding that the full-price channel comped positive in the most recent quarter. He said wholesale, which had lagged full-price stores, also showed an “incredible lift” last quarter and is showing similar trends this quarter.
Outlet Business and Back-Half Growth Idol said the outlet business has been the weaker part of Michael Kors because it had not received enough new product innovation. New outlet product begins arriving more broadly in August, including three new icon groups, one of which, Sammy, has already landed and is “fast becoming the best-selling group inside the stores,” he said.
Capri has also reduced promotional activity and third-party sales as part of what Idol called “quality of sales initiatives.” He said the company walked away from about $150 million in sales tied to those initiatives, which management believes is better for the long-term health of the brand.
Reddien said unit growth is expected to decline in fiscal 2027 due to the quality-of-sales initiative, but he expects the company to return to unit growth in fiscal 2028 and beyond as new products resonate with customers.
Idol said the company expects growth in the back half of the fiscal year as the impact of quality-of-sales initiatives diminishes after being anniversaried in October and November. He also cited new product flow in handbags and footwear, higher marketing spend and social media initiatives as factors supporting the outlook.
Jimmy Choo Gains Momentum in Accessories Idol said Jimmy Choo is already back to growth and is seeing strong momentum, especially in accessories. He said accessories are growing at a double-digit rate and described the category as “the hottest part of Jimmy Choo right now.”
The brand is selling products across a broad price architecture, including $5,000 Bonbon bags, the Cinch group priced between $2,000 and $2,500, and newer Bar and Curve groups priced under $1,500. Idol said the broader range has helped as luxury consumers become more selective.
Jimmy Choo is also expanding beyond its traditional image as a red carpet, wedding and special-occasion brand. Idol pointed to casual footwear, sneakers, jellies, loafers, kitten heels and block heels as areas that are resonating with younger consumers. He said casual footwear now accounts for more than 20% of Jimmy Choo’s business, with room to grow.
Reddien said Capri expects Jimmy Choo to return to profitability in fiscal 2027 and sees opportunities to expand margins through top-line growth, store productivity, gross margin improvement and SG&A leverage. He noted that about 50% of Jimmy Choo production is done in-house, creating opportunities to improve factory efficiency.
Margins, Stores and Capital Allocation Reddien said gross margin expansion remains the largest opportunity for Michael Kors, driven by new products, higher full-price sell-throughs and higher average unit retails. He also cited production efficiencies, product engineering, improved store productivity and SG&A optimization as contributors to margin improvement.
Management also emphasized store renovations. Idol said the renovated Michael Kors store at Rockefeller Center is up almost 30% in sales. At Jimmy Choo, he said the renovated Madison Avenue store increased from $2.5 million to almost $6 million in trend over about 18 months.
Reddien said Capri’s capital allocation priorities are to invest in the business and return value to shareholders. The company has announced a $1 billion share repurchase program, with a significant portion expected to be completed this fiscal year. Idol added that Capri plans to spend $300 million, with most of that directed toward renovating the Michael Kors fleet, along with investments in IT and other areas.
Consumer Outlook Mixed by Region Idol described consumers as “choiceful,” saying shoppers across income levels are being more thoughtful but are still buying when products offer design, quality and value. He said the North American consumer remains relatively healthy, despite pressures from higher costs for fuel, groceries and rent.
In Europe, Idol said Capri has become more cautious over the past 90 days, citing war-related effects on tourism and reduced Middle East tourist traffic. He said the company has substantial business with Middle East tourists at both Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. Idol was more optimistic about China, where he said the consumer is beginning to improve, and said Japan has remained solid.
Looking ahead, Idol said Capri is at “the beginning of an inflection” for Michael Kors, though the turnaround will take time. He also said Jimmy Choo has the potential to reach $800 million in revenue, with $100 million of that growth expected to come from accessories.

For new and old investors, taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals. Zacks Premium provides lots of different ways to do both.
The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.
It also includes access to the Zacks Style Scores.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores, developed alongside the Zacks Rank, are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing methodologies; they also help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics, each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F. The better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform; an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.
Momentum ScoreMomentum trading is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook, and these investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." The Momentum Style Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.
VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.
#1 (Strong Buy) stocks have produced an unmatched +23.94% average annual return since 1988, which is more than double the S&P 500's performance over the same time frame. However, the Zacks Rank examines a ton of stocks, and there can be more than 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, and another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
But it can feel overwhelming to pick the right stocks for you and your investing goals with over 800 top-rated stocks to choose from.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
You want to make sure you're buying stocks with the highest likelihood of success, and to do that, you'll need to pick stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you like a stock that only has a #3 (Hold) rank, it should also have Scores of A or B to guarantee as much upside potential as possible.
Since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank, the direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy.
Here's an example: a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one with Style Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings outlook, and a bigger chance its share price will decrease too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

Tapestry Deal Collapse Sent Shares TumblingMuch of Capri's struggles over the last several years can be traced to its failed merger with Tapestry Inc. NYSE: TPR.

In August 2023, Tapestry agreed to acquire Capri for $57 per share in a deal valued at approximately $8.5 billion. The announcement sent Capri shares soaring more than 55% in a single session, pushing the stock to nearly $54.
The excitement was short-lived. As regulatory scrutiny intensified, Capri shares drifted lower. When a federal judge blocked the merger on antitrust grounds in October 2024, the stock plunged nearly 50% to around $21.
Currently, Capri shares are trading at around $19, down roughly 64% from their post-announcement highs and about 9% below their level immediately after the merger was terminated. The stock has remained under pressure since the deal collapsed, as the company has continued to navigate headwinds from a challenging luxury-spending environment and tariffs.
Capri's Turnaround Begins to Take ShapeAs part of a broader turnaround effort, Capri announced plans in April 2025 to sell its Versace brand to Prada S.p.A. OTCMKTS: PRDSY. The $1.375 billion cash transaction, which closed in December, was intended to streamline the business, reduce debt, and allow Capri to focus on its two remaining brands, Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo.
The company's latest fiscal 2026 fourth-quarter earnings report suggests those efforts may already be paying off. For the quarter, Capri returned to profitability, reporting earnings of 22 cents per share, a sharp improvement from a loss of $4.90 per share a year earlier and 11 cents ahead of analyst expectations. Revenue from continuing operations, which excludes the divested Versace business, totaled $796 million, down 3.7% year over year and roughly $4 million shy of Wall Street estimates. The company also repurchased $79 million worth of shares during the quarter.
While revenue remained under pressure, Chief Executive John Idol said on the earnings call that the company was encouraged by the progress it made executing strategic initiatives aimed at strengthening the Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo brands.
New fashion offerings, he said, have driven higher full-price sell-throughs and average unit retails, while improved brand storytelling has helped deepen consumer engagement and attract new customers.
Idol also emphasized the company's stronger balance sheet following the Versace sale. With debt reduced and cash flow improving, he said Capri has the financial flexibility to invest roughly $300 million in store renovations, primarily at Michael Kors, while continuing its share repurchase program and other growth initiatives.
Company Forecasts a Return to GrowthCapri's fiscal 2027 guidance points to a meaningful improvement in the company's financial performance. The company expects revenue growth to return to the low-single-digit range, while gross margins expand by approximately 200 basis points, and operating income increases by roughly 60%. Earnings per share are projected to rise 40% year over year to $2.15.
The outlook also assumes $200 million of share repurchases during the year. Capri expects profitability to improve across both brands, with Michael Kors generating operating margins in the low double-digit range and Jimmy Choo returning to profitability with operating margins in the low single digits.
Longer term, Idol said the company expects to grow Michael Kors revenue to $4 billion and Jimmy Choo revenue to $800 million while significantly increasing profitability.
Wall Street Remains Cautiously OptimisticSome on Wall Street appear to be taking a wait-and-see approach to Capri's turnaround story. The stock currently carries a consensus Hold rating, with eight Hold ratings, one Sell, six Buys, and one Strong Buy.

Several analysts lowered their price targets following the company's latest earnings report. Even so, the average 12-month price target stands at $24.79, implying roughly 30% upside from current levels. Notably, every analyst price target remains above the current share price, with targets ranging from $20 to $32.
A recent decline in short interest is also an encouraging sign. The percentage of float sold short has fallen to 8% at the end of May, down from 10.6% at the end of March.
Capri's prolonged share-price decline has left the stock trading at a discount to both the broader retail sector and some of its competitors. The company currently trades at just 0.6X sales, well below the retail industry's average price-to-sales ratio of 1.08. Capri also trades at a substantial discount to Tapestry and Ralph Lauren Corp. NYSE: RL, which command price-to-sales multiples of 4.3 and 3.0, respectively. The valuation is not the lowest in the group, however, as PVH Corp. NYSE: PVH trades at 0.4X sales.
Capri's turnaround is still in its early stages, and investors will likely want to see further evidence that improving trends at Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo can be sustained. However, recent results suggest the company is on firmer footing than a year ago and moving in the right direction, making the stock worth a closer look for investors willing to bet on the recovery.

Capri Holdings Beats Q4 Earnings Estimates, Sees FY27 Growth AheadCapri Holdings delivered fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 results, with revenues missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate and declining year over year. However, earnings surpassed the consensus estimate and improved significantly from the prior-year quarter.
Management highlighted that strategic initiatives introduced last year are gaining traction, with improving trends visible across both Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. The company noted that actions taken to strengthen product innovation, brand desirability and consumer engagement are resonating well with consumers, providing early validation of its transformation efforts. Capri Holdings also emphasized that fiscal 2026 was focused on stabilizing the business and building a stronger foundation for long-term growth.
Looking ahead, management expressed confidence in returning to revenue and earnings growth in fiscal 2027, projecting low-single-digit revenue growth and nearly 40% earnings-per-share growth. Longer term, the company aims to grow Michael Kors revenues to $4 billion and Jimmy Choo revenues to $800 million while significantly improving profitability and delivering sustainable long-term shareholder value.
More on Capri Holdings’ Q4 ResultsCapri Holdings reported adjusted earnings of 22 cents per share for the fourth quarter, which surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 11 cents.

Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors, and Zacks Premium offers many different ways to do both.
The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores is a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on three popular investing types, and were developed as complementary indicators for the Zacks Rank. This combination helps investors choose securities with the highest chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is given an alphabetic rating of A, B, C, D or F based on their value, growth, and momentum qualities. With this system, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on, meaning the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreFor value investors, it's all about finding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value before the broader market catches on. The Value Style Score utilizes ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to help pick out the most attractive and discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreGrowth investors are more concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, the Growth Style Score analyzes characteristics like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.
Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.
VGM ScoreWhat if you like to use all three types of investing? The VGM Score is a combination of all Style Scores, making it one of the most comprehensive indicators to use with the Zacks Rank. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, which helps narrow down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank is a proprietary stock-rating model that harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to help investors build a successful portfolio.
Investors can count on the Zacks Rank's success, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +24% average annual return since 1988, more than double the S&P 500's performance. But the model rates a large number of stocks, and there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
With more than 800 top-rated stocks to choose from, it can certainly feel overwhelming to pick the ones that are right for you and your investing journey.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
You want to make sure you're buying stocks with the highest likelihood of success, and to do that, you'll need to pick stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you like a stock that only has a #3 (Hold) rank, it should also have Scores of A or B to guarantee as much upside potential as possible.
The direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should always be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy, since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank.
For instance, a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one that boasts Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings forecast, and a much greater likelihood its share price will decline as well.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.
Stock to Watch: Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) Capri Holdings Limited operates in the global personal luxury goods industry through two fashion luxury houses: Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. The company designs, markets and distributes luxury accessories, footwear and apparel through retail stores, e-commerce sites, and wholesale partners, supported by product and geographic licensing agreements. The company sells across three principal geographic markets: the Americas, EMEA and Asia. E-commerce represented approximately 21% of net revenues in fiscal 2026.
CPRI is a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of A.
Momentum investors should take note of this Retail-Wholesale stock. CPRI has a Momentum Style Score of A, and shares are up 5.3% over the past four weeks.
Four analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for fiscal 2027, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.20 to $2.01 per share. CPRI also boasts an average earnings surprise of +66.8%.
With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Momentum and VGM Style Scores, CPRI should be on investors' short list.
Capri Holdings is now a streamlined two-brand company post-Versace sale, with reduced net debt and a significant buyback authorization. CPRI's investment thesis hinges on Michael Kors stabilizing, Jimmy Choo achieving profitability, and management executing on FY2027 guidance for EPS and free cash flow. At $21.33 per share, CPRI trades at ~9.9x FY2027 guided EPS; successful execution could drive shares to $35–$38 within two years, offering 64%–78% upside.

What this transaction means for investorsThe June 8 sale of Capri Holdings stock by Board of Directors member Stephen Reitman is noteworthy, since it marks a complete liquidation of his holdings in the company. Even so, investors seemed unfazed as Capri shares rose after the transaction.
The Board member’s exit came at an interesting time for Capri. The company has struggled to generate sales, and in 2025, sold its flagging Versace brand. Revenue in Capri’s 2026 fiscal year ended March 28 was $3.5 billion, a decline from the prior year’s $3.6 billion.
On the bright side, the sale of Versace helped Capri achieve net income of $138 million. This is a significant turnaround from the $1.2 billion net loss suffered in its 2025 fiscal year.
Capri forecasted $3.5 billion in sales for its 2027 fiscal year, which signals an end to declining revenue if it can achieve this goal. However, Reitman’s exit from the stock does not bolster my confidence in the company’s ability to rebound from its current struggles.

Capri Holdings is rated a 'buy' as its turnaround gains traction, with the Versace sale stabilizing the balance sheet and debt now manageable. Jimmy Choo demonstrates sustained growth and margin strength, while Michael Kors remains challenged by entrenched brand perception and structural decline. Management's strategy focuses on store renovations, disciplined pricing, and targeting younger consumers, aiming for margin recovery from 6.6% to 10% EBITDA.

As the quarterly earnings season gathers pace, investor focus is turning toward the apparel space, where companies are showing resilience despite cautious discretionary spending, tariff-related cost pressures and fast-changing fashion preferences. Consumers remain selective, but demand has held up for brands offering compelling assortments, strong value propositions and differentiated customer engagement.
Per the latest Zacks Earnings Outlook, the Retail – Wholesale sector (which houses Retail – Apparel and Shoes stocks) is likely to witness bottom-line growth of 2% this earnings season, with revenues expected to increase 7.9%.
Key Apparel Trends This Earnings SeasonThis earnings season, several apparel players are benefiting from improved product acceptance, disciplined inventory management and lower promotional activity. Many companies have been driving higher full-price selling, refining pricing architectures and strengthening brand relevance through targeted marketing, social media engagement and product innovation. These efforts are helping support merchandise margins and improve overall business quality despite industry-wide cost pressures.
Tariffs and sourcing-related expenses remain key watchpoints. Companies with diversified sourcing strategies, selective pricing actions and tighter expense controls appear better positioned to protect profitability. At the same time, supply-chain efficiencies, better inventory alignment and reduced markdown dependency are helping stabilize margin trends heading into earnings.
Another encouraging trend is the growing emphasis on customer engagement and category expansion. Apparel retailers are increasingly leveraging loyalty programs, digital capabilities, influencer marketing and localized assortments to deepen customer relationships and drive traffic. Several players are also pursuing opportunities in adjacent categories, international markets and newer customer cohorts, particularly younger shoppers seeking trend-right products at accessible price points.
Although macroeconomic uncertainty and uneven consumer demand continue to create volatility, operational discipline and sharper execution are emerging as important differentiators. Companies balancing innovation, inventory control and margin management may be better positioned to outperform expectations this season.

On May 21, 2026, Capri Holdings Ltd CPRI shares rose 3.0%, closing at $18.38. Despite today's positive movement, the stock has experienced significant volatility, with a 52-week range between $16.22 and $28.27.
GF Value™ verdict: Current price of $18.38 represents an 18.7% discount to the GF Value™ of $22.60.GF Score™ is 69/100, indicating an above-average rating for the stock.Insider activity shows that insiders have purchased $1.0M worth of shares in the last three months, with no selling reported. Is CPRI Overvalued or Undervalued? Capri Holdings Ltd's current trading price of $18.38 is significantly below the GF Value™ of $22.60, suggesting that the stock is undervalued by 18.7%. This disparity creates a potential opportunity for investors, as the margin of safety indicates that the stock may be priced lower than its intrinsic value. The GF Valuation label of "Modestly Undervalued" further supports this assertion, implying that there is room for price appreciation if market conditions improve or if the company executes its strategic plans effectively.
However, it is essential to consider the risks associated with this undervaluation. The stock has shown volatility, with a year-to-date decline of 24.7% and a three-year drop of 22.5%. While the current price presents an attractive entry point based on the GF Value™, potential investors should remain cautious due to the company's financial strength rating of 3/10, which indicates possible underlying issues that could affect future performance.

This analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict, indicating that the stock is undervalued compared to its historical valuation metrics.

Conversely, the Financial Strength score of 3/10 and Growth rank of 3/10 highlight areas of concern, indicating potential weaknesses that could impact long-term performance and stability. Overall, while the valuation metrics are favorable, the weaker financial and growth indicators warrant careful consideration.

It is also shifting its product mix, particularly towards smaller handbags and more casual footwear, which it said was resonating more with younger shoppers.
"A premium brand like Michael Kors must avoid excessive discounting or it degrades the value of the brand," said David Swartz, analyst at Morningstar, adding that even with higher prices, Michael Kors products are priced much lower than those of luxury brands.
Capri reported another quarterly decline for the Michael Kors brand, which makes up the bulk of its sales. Revenue fell 5.5% to $656 million, the company said.
Michael Kors has faced criticism in recent years for its lack of design innovation and consecutive quarters of declining sales, in contrast to handbag rival Coach, owned by Tapestry (TPR.N), opens new tab, which analysts say benefits from stronger brand power.
Capri expects first-quarter total revenue of about $750 million, compared with an estimate of $789.7 million, according to data compiled by LSEG. The company's shares reversed course after early premarket gains and fell about 2%.
"There is enough demand for both brands (Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors). I think investors were discouraged that the Q1 sales outlook was not higher, but it's a long process," Swartz said.
Failing to capitalize on the inclusion of the Italian brand Versace in its portfolio, the company sold it to Prada last year, highlighting Capri's push to raise cash and pay down its debt.
Capri reports fourteen straight quarters of revenue decline, with declining sales at its key revenue driving brand, Michael KorsCapri's fourth-quarter revenue of $796 million was largely in line with expectations, but adjusted earnings per share of 22 cents topped an estimate of 11 cents per share, while gross margin also grew.
It plans to recover all tariffs paid under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act as of March 28 and has recorded a refund of $65 million, it said.
The company expects fiscal year 2027 profit per share of about $2.15, compared to analysts' expectation of $1.83.

Tapestry Stock Drops After Strong Quarter and Raised OutlookCapri NYSE: CPRI reported a return to profitability in its fiscal fourth quarter as management said strategic efforts at Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo are beginning to gain traction, while the company forecast revenue growth and sharply higher earnings in fiscal 2027.
On the company’s earnings call, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John Idol said Capri made “deliberate actions” during fiscal 2026 to strengthen product innovation, brand desirability, storytelling and consumer engagement across its two remaining luxury fashion houses. The company has classified Versace as discontinued operations following its sale, and management said the transaction strengthened Capri’s balance sheet and financial flexibility.

After a Huge Rally, Is There Any Upside Left for Ralph Lauren Stock? Fourth-quarter revenue from continuing operations was $796 million, down 3.7% from a year earlier on a reported basis and down 7% in constant currency, according to Raj Mehta, Capri’s former interim chief financial officer. Gross margin expanded 490 basis points to 64.8%, including a $40 million benefit recorded as a reduction to cost of goods sold related to a refund receivable for IEEPA tariffs paid in fiscal 2026.
Capri posted net income of $27 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared with a loss in the prior-year period. The company also repurchased $79 million of shares during the quarter, which Idol said was earlier than initially anticipated because of management’s confidence in Capri’s future growth and value creation.
Michael Kors Shows Progress, But Quality-of-Sale Actions Weigh on Sales As the Magnificent 7 Stalls, These 3 Stocks Are Gaining MomentumMichael Kors revenue fell 5.5% year over year on a reported basis and 8.4% in constant currency. Idol said the decline was primarily driven by initiatives to improve the “quality of sale,” including reduced promotional activity, lower third-party sales and fewer off-price shipments. He said those steps reduced fiscal 2026 revenue by more than $150 million, with the headwind expected to moderate as fiscal 2027 progresses.
Despite the revenue decline, management pointed to signs of improving brand health. In the retail channel, Michael Kors sales declined mid-single digits, but full-price comparable store sales turned positive in the fourth quarter across all regions. Average unit retail rose by low double digits, supported by higher full-price sell-throughs and reduced promotions. Idol also said store traffic trends improved sequentially.
By region, Michael Kors revenue increased 11% in EMEA and 10% in Asia, while revenue in the Americas declined 14%, largely reflecting the company’s quality-of-sale initiatives. Wholesale revenue declined mid-single digits, mainly because of lower off-price sales, though Idol said point-of-sale trends improved to approximately flat versus the prior year.
Management highlighted consumer response to the company’s “modern Jet Set” positioning, including its Hotel Stories campaign and product introductions across accessories. Idol said the Michael Kors global consumer database grew 8% year over year, aided by brand campaigns, runway visibility and influencer activity.
Jimmy Choo Returns to Growth in the Quarter Jimmy Choo revenue increased 5.3% year over year on a reported basis and was flat in constant currency. Retail sales rose mid-single digits, and wholesale revenue increased at a similar rate. Revenue rose 11% in the Americas and 8% in EMEA, while Asia declined 6%, with management noting sequential improvement from the prior quarter.
Idol said Jimmy Choo’s strategic actions are producing “tangible results,” including a return to growth in the back half of fiscal 2026. He said the brand is positioned to return to profitability in fiscal 2027.
The company highlighted product momentum in accessories and casual footwear. Idol cited strength in the Bon Bon and Cinch handbag groups, as well as encouraging consumer response to the Bar and Curve groups, which are part of a broader pricing architecture that includes bags below $1,500. In footwear, he said the Faiz lace pump performed well, while casual styles such as the Elisa ballerina flat and Sunny sneaker gained traction.
Jimmy Choo’s global customer database grew 7% year over year. Management credited campaigns including La Fleurs and the Rules of Engagement bridal campaign starring Gabourey Sidibe with helping drive engagement and attract younger customers.
Fiscal 2027 Outlook Calls for Revenue Growth and Margin Expansion For fiscal 2027, Capri expects revenue to rise at a low single-digit rate to approximately $3.525 billion. The company expects Michael Kors revenue of about $2.9 billion and Jimmy Choo revenue of about $625 million.
Management forecast gross margin expansion of approximately 200 basis points, with guidance assuming an additional 10% tariff on products entering the United States. Operating expense dollars are expected to increase modestly, while operating income is projected to rise about 60% to approximately $190 million.
Capri expects diluted earnings per share of approximately $2.15 in fiscal 2027, up about 40% from the prior year, assuming $200 million of share repurchases and weighted average shares outstanding of roughly 112 million.
Mehta said first-half revenue is expected to decline in the low single-digit range, with retail roughly flat and wholesale down low double digits. He said first-half earnings per share are expected to be about $0.85. In the second half, revenue is expected to increase at a mid-single-digit rate as strategic initiatives gain more traction, including a return to growth in the Michael Kors outlet channel. Fiscal 2027 includes a 53rd week, which is expected to add about one point to annual revenue growth.
For the first quarter, Capri guided for revenue of approximately $750 million, including about $585 million from Michael Kors and $165 million from Jimmy Choo. The company expects first-quarter diluted EPS of approximately $0.40.
Balance Sheet Strengthens After Versace Sale Mehta said Capri ended the quarter with cash of $135 million and debt of $357 million, resulting in net debt of $222 million, compared with approximately $1.4 billion a year earlier. Inventory at quarter-end was $581 million, down 17% year over year.
Capital expenditures were $63 million for fiscal 2026, primarily for store renovations and IT and digital investments. For fiscal 2027, Capri expects capital expenditures of approximately $125 million, including store renovations, new store openings and continued IT and digital enhancements.
The company has $921 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization. Mehta said Capri’s first capital allocation priority is investing in the business, followed by returning capital to shareholders through buybacks while maintaining a flexible balance sheet.
Management Emphasizes Longer-Term Brand Targets During the question-and-answer session, Idol said Capri is optimistic about the outlook for both brands. For Michael Kors, he said management expects growth to be led by full-price retail, followed by wholesale and then outlet. He said the company remains confident in its long-term ability to reach $4 billion in revenue and low-20% operating margins for Michael Kors.
For Jimmy Choo, Idol said Capri sees long-term revenue potential of $800 million and low double-digit operating margins. Chief Financial and Operating Officer Tyler Reddien said the company is in the early stages of a profit improvement program for Jimmy Choo, with areas of focus including store productivity, closing underperforming stores, SKU rationalization, inventory management, factory efficiencies and SG&A discipline.
Idol closed the call by saying Capri expects fiscal 2027 to mark a return to low single-digit revenue growth, with operating income and earnings per share increasing meaningfully as the company builds on its fiscal 2026 restructuring and brand repositioning efforts.

Key TakeawaysRelying on global markets for revenues presents both prospects and challenges for Capri Holdings. Therefore, scrutinizing its international revenue trends is key to effectively forecasting the company's future outlook.
In an era of growing international ties and escalating geopolitical disputes, financial analysts on Wall Street pay keen attention to these developments to fine-tune their earnings estimations for businesses operating across borders. It's important to note, however, that a range of additional variables, like a company's local market status, also play a crucial role in shaping these forecasts.
We at Zacks strongly focus on the dynamic earnings forecast of companies, given that empirical studies have demonstrated its potent impact on the immediate price movement of stocks. Invariably, there's a positive relationship -- upward earnings predictions often result in an increase in stock prices.
Our proprietary stock rating tool, the Zacks Rank, with its externally validated exceptional track record, harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions to serve as a dependable measure for anticipating the short-term price trends of stocks.

Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? Developed alongside the Zacks Rank, the Zacks Style Scores are a group of complementary indicators that help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is given an alphabetic rating of A, B, C, D or F based on their value, growth, and momentum qualities. With this system, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on, meaning the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreGrowth investors are more concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, the Growth Style Score analyzes characteristics like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.
Momentum ScoreMomentum trading is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook, and these investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." The Momentum Style Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.
VGM ScoreIf you want a combination of all three Style Scores, then the VGM Score will be your friend. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, helping you find the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum. It's also one of the best indicators to use with the Zacks Rank.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.
It's highly successful, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.7% average annual return since 1988. That's more than double the S&P 500. But because of the large number of stocks we rate, there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
This totals more than 800 top-rated stocks, and it can be overwhelming to try and pick the best stocks for you and your portfolio.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
The direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should always be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy, since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank.
A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.
Stock to Watch: Capri Holdings (CPRI - Free Report) Capri Holdings Limited operates in the global personal luxury goods industry.
CPRI is a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of A.
It also boasts a Value Style Score of B thanks to attractive valuation metrics like a forward P/E ratio of 9.39; value investors should take notice.
Three analysts revised their earnings estimate upwards in the last 60 days for fiscal 2027. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.15 to $1.96 per share. CPRI boasts an average earnings surprise of +66.8%.
With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Value and VGM Style Scores, CPRI should be on investors' short list.

For new and old investors, taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals. Zacks Premium provides lots of different ways to do both.
Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.
Zacks Premium also includes the Zacks Style Scores.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores is a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on three popular investing types, and were developed as complementary indicators for the Zacks Rank. This combination helps investors choose securities with the highest chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Each stock is given an alphabetic rating of A, B, C, D or F based on their value, growth, and momentum qualities. With this system, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on, meaning the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreFinding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value, are what value investors like to focus on. So, the Value Style Score takes into account ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to highlight the most attractive and discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreGrowth investors, on the other hand, are more concerned with a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score examines things like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will experience sustainable growth over time.
Momentum ScoreMomentum traders and investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." This investing style is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Employing factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, the Momentum Style Score can indicate favorable times to build a position in high-momentum stocks.
VGM ScoreIf you like to use all three kinds of investing, then the VGM Score is for you. It's a combination of all Style Scores, and is an important indicator to use with the Zacks Rank. The VGM Score rates each stock on their shared weighted styles, narrowing down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank, which is a proprietary stock-rating model, employs earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to make building a winning portfolio easier.
It's highly successful, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.7% average annual return since 1988. That's more than double the S&P 500. But because of the large number of stocks we rate, there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
But it can feel overwhelming to pick the right stocks for you and your investing goals with over 800 top-rated stocks to choose from.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.
Since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank, the direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy.
Here's an example: a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one with Style Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings outlook, and a bigger chance its share price will decrease too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.
