Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI): A Bull Case Theory
We came across a bullish thesis on Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI) on Substack by Paul Cerro. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on CPRI. Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI)'s share was trading at $17.33 as of 21st May. CPRI's trailing and forward P/E were 5.74 and 23.75 respectively according to Yahoo Finance. A luxury apparel store, showcasing the high-end brand offerings. Capri Holdings (CPRI) recently announced the divestment of Versace to Prada for $1.375 billion—a notable step down from its 2018 purchase price but still a strategic win for investors betting on the deal. Despite the anticipated stock rally post-announcement, shares faltered due to the reintroduction of steep tariffs under Trump, particularly a 145% rate on Chinese goods, which significantly impacted sentiment around CPRI, whose Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo brands rely heavily on Asian manufacturing. Still, this tariff pressure is seen as unsustainable. The belief is that Trump will be forced to reverse course, either by market pressure—such as rising 10-year Treasury yields—or pushback from corporations, as was the case with his 90-day pause on electronics tariffs. Capri's now net-cash position, excluding operating leases, strengthens the investment case. Even after paying down $1 billion in debt, the company could still hold $250 million in cash, providing flexibility for reinvestment, buybacks, or further deleveraging. This financial pivot, paired with the sale of a loss-making segment, positions CPRI for re-rating—especially once tariff-related overhangs ease. While the core brands (KORS and CHOO) aren't the most exciting in isolation, the improved balance sheet and optionality create an attractive setup. Investors see a path for a 25%+ move from current levels once macro risks subside. With no imminent catalyst but strong structural improvements in place, the stock is viewed as a mispriced asset in the wake of temporary geopolitical noise, setting the stage for significant upside as clarity returns. Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI) is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 47 hedge fund portfolios held CPRI at the end of the fourth quarter which was 57 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the risk and potential of CPRI as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than CPRI but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Capri Holdings Limited (NYSE:CPRI), a global fashion luxury group, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2025 ended March 29, 2025. Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2025 Highlights John D. Idol, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer said, "Fiscal 2025 was a challenging year for Capri Holdings, but we are optimistic about our path forward as we enter fiscal 2026. While there is uncertainty around the impact of tariffs on the global economic environment, we remain focused on executing against our new strategic initiatives that are designed to return Capri Holdings to future growth. The Company is still in the early stages of its turnaround and we are seeing positive indicators that our strategies are beginning to work." Mr. Idol continued, "As previously announced, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell Versace to Prada Group. This transaction positions us to invest in our future growth, substantially reduce our debt levels and reinstate a share repurchase program in the future. With our new strategies in place, a focused senior leadership team, and a strong balance sheet we are well positioned to improve performance of both Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo." Mr. Idol concluded, "Looking ahead, we continue to expect trends to improve throughout fiscal year 2026 positioning us to return to growth in fiscal 2027 and beyond.

Versace Update As previously announced, on April 10, 2025, Capri Holdings announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to sell Versace to Prada S.p.A. for $1.375 billion in cash subject to certain adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of calendar 2025, subject to customary closing conditions including regulatory approvals. Beginning in fiscal 2026 Versace will be classified as a discontinued operation. Outlook The following guidance is provided on an adjusted, non-GAAP basis. 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, changes in tariff rates, greater than anticipated inflationary pressures or weakening consumer confidence, and further considerable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company's fiscal 2026 outlook is based on continuing operations, reflecting the Versace business being classified as a discontinued operation. Fiscal Year 2026 Outlook Due to the uncertainty around tariffs, including the potential impact on consumer spending, as well as fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates, we are providing guidance assuming a range of outcomes. For Capri Holdings, the Company expects the following: Total revenue of approximately $3.3 to $3.4 billion Operating income in a range around $100 million, including the estimated tariff impact Net interest income of approximately $85 to $90 million Effective tax rate of approximately 15% Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 119 million Diluted earnings per share of approximately $1.20 to $1.40 Ending inventory to decline in the mid-single-digit range Capital expenditures of approximately $110 million For Michael Kors, the Company expects the following: Total revenue of approximately $2.75 to $2.85 billion Operating margin in the high-single-digit range For Jimmy Choo, the Company expects the following: Total revenue of approximately $540 to $550 million Operating margin in the negative mid-single-digit range First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Outlook For Capri Holdings, the Company expects the following: Total revenue of approximately $765 to $780 million Operating margin of approximately break-even Net interest income of approximately $15 million Effective tax rate of approximately 15% Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 119 million Diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.10 to $0.15 For Michael Kors, the Company expects the following: Total revenue of approximately $615 to $625 million Operating margin in the mid-single-digit range For Jimmy Choo, the Company expects the following: Total revenue of approximately $150 to $155 million Operating margin of approximately break-even Conference Call Information A conference call to discuss fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2025 results is scheduled for today, May 28, 2025 at 8:30 a.m. ET.

A replay of the webcast will also be available within two hours of the conclusion of the call. Additionally, a fourth quarter fiscal 2025 earnings highlights presentation is posted on the company's website. 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 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 a useful to investors because it measures the Company's ability to generate or use cash. Additionally, this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain costs associated with impairment charges, restructuring and other charges, ERP implementation costs, Capri transformation costs and transaction related expenses. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, among other things, to evaluate its operating performance and in order to represent the manner in which the Company conducts and views its business. The Company believes that excluding these items helps its management and investors compare operating performance based on its ongoing operations. While the Company considers the non-GAAP measures to be useful supplemental measures in analyzing its results, they are not intended to replace, nor act as a substitute for, any amounts presented in its consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures reported by other companies.
