Capri (NYSE:CPRI) released its earnings results on Friday. The company reported $0.42 earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, beating the consensus estimate of $0.21 by $0.21, FiscalAI reports. The firm had revenue of $809.00 million for the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $786.55 million. Capri had a return on equity of 297.36% and a net margin of 4.44%. The firm’s revenue was down 5.5% on a year-over-year basis. During the same period in the prior year, the firm earned ($0.03) EPS.

Here are the key takeaways from Capri’s conference call:

• Capri raised its fiscal 2027 outlook, now expecting approximately $3.42 billion in revenue, $175 million in operating income, and diluted EPS of $2.20, representing 50% and 45% growth, respectively, over the prior year.
• Second-quarter results exceeded expectations, with revenue of $809 million down 5.5% year over year but operating income up 55% and EPS improving to $0.42 from a $0.03 loss; gross margin expanded 230 basis points to 63.3% on stronger full-price sell-through and lower tariffs.
• Michael Kors showed improving momentum as new products such as the Hamilton Soft handbag, Jennings loafer, and Piper Flex ballet flat generated strong full-price demand; management expects sequential improvement in Q3 and a return to revenue growth in Q4.
• Jimmy Choo delivered a second consecutive quarter of double-digit growth, with Q2 revenue rising 11.5% to $146 million, supported by strength in accessories and footwear; the company continues to expect the brand to return to profitability in fiscal 2027.
• The recovery remains exposed to execution risks, including Michael Kors inventory delays that reduced Q2 revenue by roughly $50 million, continued weakness in Asia, foreign-currency headwinds, and potentially higher tariffs in the second half.
