Tapestry, Inc. Reports Fiscal 2020 Third Quarter Results

Significant Actions Underway to Mitigate the Impact of Covid-19

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30, 2020--Tapestry, Inc. (NYSE: TPR), a leading New York-based house of modern luxury accessories and lifestyle brands, today reported results for the fiscal third quarter ended March 28, 2020.

Jide Zeitlin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Tapestry, Inc., said, “We entered the calendar year with strong underlying momentum. As the novel coronavirus expanded across the globe, our results materially weakened. In navigating this unprecedented crisis, we are guided by our values and have continued to prioritize our community – our people, their families, and our customers. I am incredibly proud of our teams around the world and the resilience they have shown in facing events that have impacted every aspect of how we live our lives and manage our business.”

“No one is immune to the effects of this one hundred year storm. We are taking aggressive actions to assure that Tapestry emerges a strong company when conditions normalize. We have powerful brands with deep consumer connections and a long history of successfully navigating global challenges and macroeconomic shocks. In addition, we have a strong balance sheet, we benefit from a multi-channel international distribution model with only modest exposure to wholesale, and a diversified supply chain.”

“We are building on our strengths and moving swiftly to adapt to the current environment with a focus on preserving liquidity and enhancing financial flexibility. We are accelerating key elements of the transformational work we began prior to the crisis, notably driving outsized growth in digital and creating a more streamlined and data-driven organization.”

Distribution Network

During the quarter, 90% of Tapestry’s stores were either closed or operating on shortened hours. We have seen a degree of normalcy return in certain areas first impacted, including Mainland China and Korea, and expect to apply lessons learned as, over time, additional countries and regions reopen. Across all brands, our network was impacted as follows:

• China: Approximately 90% of stores on the Mainland were closed as of early February. By the end of the quarter, the vast majority of stores had re-opened, though traffic remained muted. As of mid-April, all stores were open and we have continued to experience a gradual improvement in the business week-to-week.
• North America and Europe: All stores were closed as of mid-March and the vast majority remain closed today. However, beginning on May 1st, in accordance with state and local guidelines, utilizing heightened health and safety precautions, the Company will reopen approximately 40 stores in North America for contactless curbside or storefront pickup service only. In Europe, we have opened five locations in Germany and Austria. The Company is planning a phased approach to welcome shoppers back into safety enhanced stores where teams will be equipped with gloves and masks, offer sanitizers and wipes at the cash wrap, and limit the number of customers to align with recommended social distancing practices.
• Japan: The vast majority of stores were operating on shortened hours as of mid-March. As of mid-April, all stores were closed in compliance with local government requirements.
• South Korea: The majority of stores were operating on shortened hours as of mid-March and as of early April, all stores had resumed normal operating hours.
• Other Asia Pacific: The majority of stores in Malaysia, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand were operating under shortened hours as of mid-March and by early April were closed. Most remain closed today, however, in Australia, Tapestry has reopened twelve locations.
• Global Wholesale: Similar to the Company’s directly operated stores, the majority of its travel retail and distributor-run locations as well as international and North America department stores and multi-brand shops were closed over the quarter and remain closed today.
• Digital: Tapestry’s e-commerce platforms and related distribution centers across all brands and regions remained operational almost continuously during the quarter. The Company’s brand teams distorted marketing investment towards digital, driving engagement with customers and generating significant overall e-commerce sales gains. Because the Company’s digital business is smaller than the revenues generated in physical stores, the strong digital growth did not offset the loss of revenue due to store closures.

Supply Chain

Tapestry’s supply chain continued to operate effectively over the third quarter given its globally diversified manufacturing and sourcing base, with relatively limited exposure to China. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company has been successfully working with its service providers to balance changing levels of supply and demand.

Mitigating Actions

As previously announced, the Company moved quickly to mitigate the impact of Covid-19, reinforcing its liquidity and financial flexibility. Tapestry has also accelerated its transformational work to position the Company for recovery and long-term, profitable growth:

• Driving SG&A savings by eliminating non-essential operating costs, such as marketing, across all key areas of spend and reducing corporate compensation;
• Tightly managing inventories by reflowing late spring and early summer product introductions and cancelling inventory receipts for late summer/early fall 2020, which is expected to result in over $500 million of working capital savings;
• Reducing Capex by at least $100 million in fiscal 2021 as compared to its run-rate spend of approximately $275 million. The Company is delaying or cancelling new store openings, while prioritizing investment in high-return projects aligned with the multi-year growth agenda, notably in digital.
• Drawing down $700 million from its $900 million revolving credit facility, funded after quarter end, to add to cash balances;
• Suspending both its quarterly cash dividend and share repurchase programs saving approximately $700 million annually as compared to fiscal 2020.

In addition, the Company is taking additional actions to further streamline its organization, including reductions in its corporate and retail workforce. In aggregate, the Company expects to incur pre-tax charges associated with these actions of approximately $55-$70 million, primarily related to cash severance costs, which will be reflected beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, and are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2021. These charges will be recorded within SG&A expenses. These actions position Tapestry to emerge as a global, consumer-centric company, with a more agile organizational structure. Being more responsive to the rapidly changing retail environment enables Tapestry’s multi-year growth agenda.

Outlook

“The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic transcends near-term results. Consumer behaviors are changing and secular trends are accelerating. In this environment, we are planning conservatively while acting decisively to transform the way we operate and engage with our customers. The saliency of our brands plus the strong financial position of our company will enable us to successfully manage through this crisis, as we become a more consumer-centric, data-driven, and agile organization," Mr. Zeitlin concluded.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation

In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded certain items that increased its pre-tax loss by $654 million and its net loss by $601 million or about $2.18 per diluted share. Please refer to the financial tables included herein for a detailed reconciliation of the Company’s reported to non-GAAP results. These items included:

Impairments:

In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded $267 million of impairment charges to indefinite-lived brand intangible assets and $211 million of impairment charges to goodwill for the Stuart Weitzman reporting unit. These charges were as a result of a decline in both current and future expected cash flows, exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, which resulted in a decline in sales driven by closures of a significant portion of stores and traffic declines globally. In addition, the Company recorded $104 million related to an increase in inventory reserves, and $66 million of impairment charges in store assets, including the lease assets recorded in connection with the adoption of the new lease accounting standard. These charges were primarily a result of decreased net sales and cash flow projections associated with Covid-19.

ERP Implementation and Organization-related & Integration Costs:

In addition, the Company recorded $6 million in pre-tax charges associated with its ERP and Organization-related and Integration activities.

Fiscal Year 2020 Outlook

Given the dynamic nature of the Covid-19 crisis and lack of visibility, the potential financial impact to our business cannot be accurately projected. Therefore, the Company is not providing guidance for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year 2020.

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 financial information presented above, as well as gross margin, SG&A expense ratio, and operating margin, have been presented both including and excluding the effect of certain items related to the Company’s Impairment, ERP Implementation and Organization-related and Integration Costs for the third quarter of fiscal year 2020 and ERP Implementation and Integration & Acquisition-Related Costs and the Impact of Tax Legislation for the third quarter of fiscal year 2019.

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 revenue results by translating current period revenue in local currency using the prior year period’s currency conversion rate.

Due to fact that 90% of the Company’s stores were closed or operating under shortened operating hours over the course of quarter, net sales changes for the Company and each segment are based on absolute sales dollar changes and are not presented in accordance with the Company’s comparable sales definition utilized in prior quarters.

Management utilizes these 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.
