Read MoreHide Full Article
Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI - Free Report) posted drab first-quarter fiscal 2025 results, wherein both the top and bottom lines declined year over year and lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
The company’s disappointing results were largely due to a weakening global demand for luxury fashion goods. In response to the challenging conditions in the global retail market, Capri Holdings remains careful about operating expenses and inventory management. CPRI’s focus remains on executing strategic initiatives aimed at achieving long-term sustainable growth across all luxury divisions.
Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors continue to connect well with consumers, as demonstrated by the addition of 12.6 million new customers to their database, reflecting a 15% increase compared to the previous year. This growth highlights the robust brand equity and appeal of these three iconic brands.

Capri Holdings Limited Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Total revenues of $1,067 million fell short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,149 million and decreased 13.2% year over year. On a constant-currency basis, total revenues declined 12.1%.

The company reported an adjusted operating income of $16 million, considerably down from $111 million in the prior-year quarter. The adjusted operating margin shrunk 750 bps to 1.5%. This decline can be attributed to a reduced gross margin and expense deleverage on soft revenues.
