In the fourth quarter of the last fiscal year, Capri Holdings posted an operating loss of 116 million US dollars, with a negative margin of 11.2%, improving from a 543 million US dollar loss and a negative 44.4% margin in the same period a year earlier.

Capri Holdings generated 153 million US dollars in free cash flow in the fiscal year 2025. At the end of the year, net debt had fallen to 1.3 billion US dollars from 1.5 billion US dollars the previous year, reflecting improved cash generation and reduced leverage.

Full year operating income is expected in the range of around 100 million US dollars, including the estimated tariff impact, as compared to a full year operating loss of 752 million US dollars. 

“Looking ahead, we continue to expect trends to improve throughout fiscal year 2026 positioning us to return to growth in fiscal 2027 and beyond. We are confident in our ability to grow Michael Kors to 4 billion US dollars in revenue and Jimmy Choo to 800 million US dollars over time, while restoring operating margin to the double-digit range”, concluded John D.
