NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tapestry, Inc. (NYSE: TPR), a house of iconic accessories and lifestyle brands, today is hosting its 2025 Investor Day in New York City. At the event, the Company will present its long-term growth strategy and financial targets.

Joanne Crevoiserat, Chief Executive Officer of Tapestry, Inc., commented:

“Tapestry is a consumer-obsessed, data-driven organization, driving meaningful durable growth. From this strong foundation, we are introducing our Amplify plan, building on our proven strategies to bring our iconic brands to new generations of consumers. We are confident that our strengths are structural, and that our innovation, creativity, and brand-building capabilities will deliver significant value for our customers, employees, and shareholders for years to come.”

Amplify Growth Strategy

At Tapestry’s 2025 Investor Day, the Company’s senior leadership team will present its “Amplify” growth strategy, which focuses on four key pillars:

• Build Emotional Connections with Consumers – Driving new customer acquisition, with a focus on Gen Z consumers entering the market to build brand love and lifetime value;
• Fuel Fashion Innovation & Product Excellence – Leading with handbags and leathergoods with targeted lifestyle expansion in footwear;
• Deliver Compelling Experiences to Drive Global Growth – Sustaining growth in North America and accelerating momentum in international markets, prioritizing Greater China and Europe;
• Ignite the Power of Our People – Future-proofing growth by continuing to develop a consumer-obsessed culture that is agile and always looking forward.

Scott Roe, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of Tapestry, Inc. commented:

“Our focused strategies and consistent execution position us to generate compounding growth. We expect to deliver durable mid-single digit revenue gains annually, expand our operating margins, and achieve double-digit earnings per share growth in fiscal years 2027 and 2028. At the same time, we remain disciplined allocators of capital and expect to return $4 billion to shareholders over our three-year planning horizon, underscoring the strength and flexibility of our balance sheet and confidence in driving sustained value creation.”

Shareholder Return Programs

Tapestry plans to return $4 billion to shareholders through Fiscal Year 2028, which is expected to represent 100% of the Company’s adjusted free cash flow generation over the three-year period (FY26 – FY28):

• Dividend: In Fiscal 2026, the Company continues to anticipate an annual dividend of $1.60 per share. Moving forward, Tapestry expects to grow its dividend at least in-line with earnings growth, with a payout ratio of approximately 30% through Fiscal 2028.
• Share Repurchases: The Company expects to buy back approximately $3 billion in common stock cumulatively from Fiscal 2026 through Fiscal 2028. Consistent with this strategy, the Company announced a new $3 billion share repurchase authorization.

Long-Term Financial Targets

The Company is introducing Fiscal 2027 to Fiscal 2028 financial targets, which are provided on a non-GAAP basis:

• Revenue growth of mid-single digits annually;
• Operating margin expansion to over 22% by Fiscal 2028, an increase of over 200 basis points versus Fiscal 2025, which includes gross margin gains and continued investment in marketing;
• Earnings per diluted share growth of low double-digits in Fiscal 2027 and Fiscal 2028.

By brand, the Company expects:

• Coach to deliver a three-year mid-single-digit revenue CAGR with operating margin expanding to a mid-30% rate over the planning horizon; the Company has a longer-term ambition for the brand to reach $10 billion in revenue; and
• Kate Spade to return to profitable topline growth in Fiscal 2027 and accelerate to mid-single-digit revenue growth and a high single-digit operating margin in Fiscal 2028.

Over the three-year planning horizon, adjusted free cash flow is expected to be $4 billion cumulatively from Fiscal 2026 through Fiscal 2028.

These long-term targets incorporate the Company’s previously announced Fiscal 2026 outlook, which was provided with its fiscal fourth quarter earnings results in mid-August, and is unchanged.

This outlook:

• Embeds U.S. trade and tax policies as of August 1, 2025 including the elimination of Section 321 benefits as of August 29, 2025;
• Includes foreign currency exchange rates using spot rates at the time of forecast;
• Assumes no material worsening of inflationary pressures or consumer confidence;
• Excludes one-time costs associated with the sale of Stuart Weitzman, which closed on August 4, 2025, as well as the brand’s results for the period under ownership in Fiscal 2026;
• Excludes non-recurring costs associated with the Company’s organizational efficiency efforts.

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

Long Term Financial Targets - Non-GAAP Adjustments:

The Company is not able to provide a full reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP presented in the long-term financial targets because certain material items that impact these measures 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.

The live event will be available via webcast on the Company’s Investor Day microsite beginning at 8:30am ET today. Presentation slides and a recording of the event will also be available on the investor section of the Company’s website, www.tapestry.com/investors, after the conclusion of the Investor Day.
