Dividend

As anticipated, the Board of Directors approved the return of $321 million to shareholders in Fiscal 2024 through dividend payments, for an annual dividend rate of $1.40 per common share, which represented an increase of 17% versus prior year and a dividend payout ratio of 39% on a reported basis.

In Fiscal 2025, Tapestry expects to maintain its annual dividend rate of $1.40 per common share, and the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per common share payable on September 23, 2024, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 6, 2024.

Acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited

On August 10, 2023, Tapestry, Inc. announced a definitive agreement to acquire Capri Holdings Limited, establishing a powerful global house of iconic luxury and fashion brands. Importantly, this transaction will bring significant benefits to the combined Company's customers, employees, partners, and shareholders around the world. Further, the acquisition builds on Tapestry's track record as a consumer-centric brand-builder and disciplined operator and accelerates its strategic and financial growth agenda.

On April 22, 2024, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a lawsuit in an attempt to block the proposed acquisition. The Company is confident in the merits and pro-competitive, pro-consumer nature of this transaction and looks forward to presenting its strong legal arguments in court, working expeditiously to close the transaction in calendar year 2024.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation

During the fiscal fourth quarter of 2024, the Company recorded certain items that decreased pre-tax income by $60 million, net income by $58 million, and earnings per diluted share by approximately $0.24. For the full fiscal year, the Company recorded certain items that decreased pre-tax income by $227 million, net income by $184 million, and earnings per diluted share by approximately $0.79. These items relate to costs associated with the proposed acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited, primarily financing charges and professional fees.

Please refer to Financial Schedules 3 and 4 included herein for a detailed reconciliation of the Company's reported GAAP to non-GAAP results.

Financial Outlook

Tapestry expects the following for Fiscal 2025 on a non-GAAP basis:

Revenue in the area of $6.7 billion, representing growth compared to the prior year on a reported basis, including approximately 50 basis points of currency pressure. On a constant currency basis, revenue is expected to increase approximately 1% versus prior year;
Operating margin expansion in the area of 50 basis points compared to prior year;
Net interest income of approximately $20 million;
Tax rate of approximately 19%;
Weighted average diluted share count of approximately 238 million shares;
Earnings per diluted share of $4.45 to $4.50, representing mid-single digit growth compared to the prior year. This incorporates a negative impact of $0.35 related to the suspension of share repurchase activity due to the proposed acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited, as previously outlined, and an estimated currency headwind of approximately $0.20 versus the Company's Fiscal 2025 EPS target as provided at its Investor Day in 2022;
Free cash flow of approximately $1.1 billion, excluding deal-related costs.

Please note this outlook assumes the following:

No revenue, net interest, or earnings impact related to the proposed acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited;
No further appreciation of the U.S. Dollar; information provided based on spot rates at the time of forecast;
No material worsening of inflationary pressures or consumer confidence;
No benefit from the potential reinstatement of the Generalized System of Preferences ("GSP"); and
No impact related to any potential policy changes resulting from the outcome of U.S. Presidential election in November 2024.

Given the dynamic nature of these and other external factors, financial results could differ materially from the outlook provided.

Financial Outlook - Non-GAAP Adjustments:

The Company is not able to provide a full reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP presented in this release and on the Company's conference call because certain material items that impact these measures, such as the timing and exact amount of acquisition, financing, purchase accounting and integration-related charges and Company costs associated with the acquisition of Capri Holdings Limited have not yet occurred and cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort.

(1) There were no items affecting comparability in the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended on July 1, 2023

Management utilizes non-GAAP and constant currency measures to conduct and evaluate its business during its regular review of operating results for the periods affected and to make decisions about Company resources and performance. The Company believes presenting these non-GAAP measures, which exclude items that are not comparable from period to period, is useful to investors and others in evaluating the Company's ongoing operating and financial results in a manner that is consistent with management's evaluation of business performance and understanding how such results compare with the Company's historical performance. Additionally, the Company believes presenting these metrics on a constant currency basis will help investors and analysts to understand the effect of significant year-over-year foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on these performance measures and provide a framework to assess how business is performing and expected to perform excluding these effects.

The Company reports information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The Company's management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP measures utilized by the Company may be unique to the Company, as they may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The Company operates on a global basis and reports financial results in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Percentage increases/decreases in net sales for the Company and each segment have been presented both including and excluding currency fluctuation effects from translating foreign-denominated sales into U.S. dollars and compared to the same periods in the prior quarter and fiscal year. The Company calculates constant currency net sales results by translating current period net sales in local currency using the prior year period's currency conversion rate.

The segment operating income and supplemental segment SG&A expenses presented in the Consolidated Segment Data, and GAAP to non-GAAP Reconciliation Table above, as well as SG&A expense ratio, and operating margin, are considered non-GAAP measures. These measures have been presented both including and excluding acquisition costs for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 29, 2024. In addition, segment Operating Income (loss), Net income (loss), and Net Income (loss) per diluted common share, have been presented both including and excluding acquisition costs for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 29, 2024.

There were no items affecting comparability for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended July 1, 2023.
