SPECIAL NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This document, and the documents incorporated by reference in this document, our press releases and oral statements made from time to time by us or on our behalf, may contain certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are based on management's current expectations, that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our current expectations. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "may," "can," "could," "if," "continue," "projection," "assumption," "should," "expect," "goal," “target,” "trend," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "future," "plan," "potential," "position," "build," "fuel," "deliver," "ignite," "aim," "believe," "seek," "will," "would," "uncertain," "achieve," "growth," "forecast," "outlook," "commit," "innovation," "drive," "leverage," "generate," “lead,” “sustain,” “accelerate,” “advancing,” “expanding,” “create,” “elevate,” “prioritize,” “momentum,” “monitor,” “mitigate,” “optimization,” “foreseeable,” “future-proof,” "Amplify," “2028 growth strategy,” "we stretch what’s possible," similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. They include, without limitation, statements regarding future anticipated capital expenditures. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If such risks or uncertainties materialize or such assumptions prove incorrect, the results of Tapestry, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries could differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and assumptions. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. Tapestry, Inc. assumes no obligation to revise or update any such forward-looking statements for any reason, except as required by law.
Tapestry, Inc.’s actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to: (i) the impact of economic conditions, recession and inflationary measures; (ii) the impact of international trade disputes and the risks associated with potential changes to international trade and policy agreements, including the imposition or threat of imposition of new or increased tariffs or retaliatory tariffs implemented by countries where our manufacturers are located as well as the imposition of additional duties on the products we import; (iii) our exposure to international risks, including currency fluctuations and changes in economic or political conditions in the markets where we sell or source our products; (iv) our ability to anticipate consumer preferences, retain the value of our brands and respond to changing fashion and retail trends in a timely manner, including our ability to execute on our e-commerce and digital strategies; (v) the impact of tax and other legislation; (vi) the ability to successfully implement the initiatives under our Amplify strategy; (vii) the effect of existing and new competition in the marketplace; (viii) our ability to successfully identify and implement any sales, acquisitions or strategic transactions on attractive terms or at all; (ix) our ability to achieve intended benefits, cost savings and synergies from acquisitions; (x) our ability to control costs; (xi) the effect of seasonal and quarterly fluctuations on our sales or operating results; (xii) the risks associated with cyber security threats, privacy or data security breaches, and the development, use, governance and regulation of artificial intelligence technologies; (xiii) our ability to satisfy our outstanding debt obligations or incur additional indebtedness; (xiv) the risks associated with climate change and other corporate responsibility issues; (xv) our ability to protect against infringement of our trademarks and other proprietary rights; (xvi) the impact of pending and potential future legal proceedings and (xvii) such other risk factors as set forth in Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 27, 2026. These factors are not necessarily all of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Tapestry, Inc. (the "Company") is a global house of iconic accessories and lifestyle brands uniting the magic of Coach and Kate Spade New York. Together, we stretch what’s possible – advancing brands further than they could go alone, expanding their reach to new geographies and generations. Inspired by our consumers, we create experiences and products that build lasting brand love and elevate everyday life.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
Interim Financial Statements
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of management, such condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. In addition, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted from this report as is permitted by the SEC's rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. This report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 27, 2026 ("fiscal 2026") and other filings with the SEC.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the Company changed the presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures to whole millions from the historical presentation of tenths of millions and, as a result, any necessary rounding adjustments have been made to prior year disclosed amounts.
The results of operations, cash flows and comprehensive income for the three months ended September 26, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year, which will end on July 3, 2027 ("fiscal 2027").
Fiscal Periods
The Company utilizes a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to June 30. Fiscal 2027 will end on July 3, 2027 and will be a 53-week year. Fiscal 2026, which ended on June 27, 2026, was a 52-week year. The first quarter of fiscal 2027, which ended on September 26, 2026 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026, which ended on September 27, 2025, were both 13-week periods.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from estimates in amounts that may be material to the financial statements.
Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements include reserves for the realizability of inventory; asset retirement obligations; customer returns, end-of-season markdowns and operational chargebacks; useful lives and impairments of long-lived tangible and intangible assets; accounting for income taxes and related uncertain tax positions; accounting for business combinations; the valuation of share-based compensation awards and related expected forfeiture rates; reserves for restructuring; and reserves for litigation and other contingencies, amongst others.
Principles of Consolidation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all 100% owned and controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
Additionally, GAAP requires the consolidation of all entities for which a company has a controlling voting interest and all variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which a company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. An entity is generally a VIE if it meets any of the following criteria: (i) the entity has insufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, (ii) the equity investors cannot make significant decisions about the entity’s operations or (iii) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of

Share Repurchases
The Company accounts for stock repurchases by allocating the repurchase price to Common stock and Retained earnings (accumulated deficit). Under Maryland law, the Company's state of incorporation, there are no treasury shares. All repurchased shares are authorized but unissued shares; these shares may be issued in the future for general corporate and other purposes. The Company may terminate or limit the stock repurchase program at any time. The Company accounts for the shares purchased under the share repurchase plan based on the trade date. Purchases of the Company's common stock may be executed through open market purchases including through purchase agreements under Rule 10b5-1, in privately negotiated transactions or in other transactions, including accelerated share repurchase programs. Excise tax on net share repurchases is recorded in Retained earnings (accumulated deficit) as part of Stockholders' Equity.

3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements," which includes amendments intended to more closely align hedge accounting with the economics of an entity's risk management activities. The amendments will be effective for the Company's annual reporting periods beginning in fiscal year 2028 and for interim periods within fiscal year 2028. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software", which modernizes the accounting for the costs of software developed for internal use and clarifies related disclosure requirements. The amendments remove all references to software development stages, requiring companies to start capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments will be effective for the Company's annual reporting periods beginning in fiscal year 2029 and for interim periods within fiscal year 2029. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses", which is intended to improve the disclosures about expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. The amendments will be effective for the Company's annual reporting periods beginning in fiscal year 2028 and for interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2029, with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements or prospectively upon adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

The balance of such amounts as of September 26, 2026 and June 27, 2026 was $43 million and $35 million, respectively, which were primarily recorded within Accrued liabilities on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are generally expected to be recognized as revenue within a year.

(3) The ending balance of AOCI relates to excluded components of derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges. The ending balance as of September 26, 2026 is a gain of $1 million, net of tax of less than $1 million.
8. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its sale of inventory, cross-currency intercompany loans and payables, and the remeasurement and translation of foreign operations. The Company is also exposed to interest rate risk related to changes in the fair value of the Company's fixed-rate debt. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage these risks. These derivative transactions are in accordance with the Company’s risk management policies. Each derivative instrument entered into by the Company that qualifies for hedge accounting is expected to be highly effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.
The Company records all derivative contracts at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis. As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company may be exposed to the risk that the counterparties to such contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate this counterparty credit risk, the Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon an evaluation of their credit ratings, among other factors.
The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based on the forward curves of the specific indices upon which settlement is based and include an adjustment for the counterparty's or Company’s credit risk. Judgment is required of management in developing estimates of fair value. The use of different market assumptions or methodologies could affect the estimated fair value.

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts primarily to reduce its risks related to exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency denominated inventory transactions. This primarily includes exposure to exchange rate fluctuations in Chinese Renminbi, Japanese Yen, Canadian Dollar and Euro. The derivative instrument gains (losses) are initially deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and subsequently recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within Cost of sales, when the related inventory is sold to a third party.
If it is determined that a derivative instrument has not been highly effective or will continue not to be highly effective in hedging the designated exposure, hedge accounting is discontinued and further gains (losses) are recognized in earnings. Upon discontinuance of hedge accounting, amounts previously recorded in AOCI are recognized in earnings when the related hedged item affects earnings, unless it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur, in which case the accumulated amount is immediately recognized in earnings.
For cash flow reporting purposes, the Company classifies proceeds received or amounts paid upon the settlement of the cash flow hedging instruments in the same manner as the related item being hedged, primarily within cash from operating activities.
The Company expects that $11 million of net derivative gain related to inventory purchases included in AOCI at September 26, 2026 will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. This amount will vary due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Net Investment Hedges
The Company enters into cross-currency swaps and forward foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce its risks related to exchange rate fluctuations on net investments in foreign subsidiaries, including our Euro, Japanese Yen and Chinese Renminbi denominated subsidiaries, against future volatility in the exchange rates between the United States dollar and their local currencies. The related gains (losses) are deferred within cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) in AOCI until the net investment is sold or liquidated, and current maturity dates range from March 2035 to November 2039.
The Company assesses net investment hedges under the spot method, resulting in cross-currency basis spread on swaps and the spot to forward rate difference on forward exchanges being excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The portion of change in fair value attributable to excluded components is recorded in AOCI and amortized to earnings within Interest expense, net.
Upon termination of derivative instruments that are designated as a net investment hedge, the changes in the fair value of the instruments recognized as a component within AOCI remain in CTA until the net investment is sold or liquidated. If it is determined that a derivative instrument has not been highly effective or will continue not to be highly effective in hedging the designated exposure, hedge accounting is discontinued and further gains (losses) are recognized in earnings.
For cash flow reporting purposes, proceeds received or amounts paid upon the settlement of a net investment hedge are included within cash from investing activities, unless the derivative instrument includes an other-than-insignificant financing element, for which these cash flows are primarily classified within cash from financing activities.
Fair Value Hedges
The Company enters into cross-currency swaps to reduce its risks related to foreign exchange rate fluctuations associated with certain cross-currency intercompany loans. Changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swaps designated as fair value hedges are recognized within Other expense (income) on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, which generally offset the adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item. The portion of the change in the fair value of designated cross-currency swap contracts attributable to the excluded component is recorded in AOCI and amortized to earnings within Other expense (income). If it is determined that a derivative instrument has not been highly effective or will continue not to be highly effective in hedging the designated exposure, any amounts associated with excluded components in AOCI would be reclassified into earnings immediately.
The Company also enters into interest rate contracts to reduce exposure to changes in the fair value of certain fixed‑rate debt resulting from fluctuations in benchmark interest rates. The gains and losses on the interest rate contracts designated as fair value hedges are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as Interest expense, net and are generally offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the hedged liabilities. If it is determined that a derivative instrument has not been highly effective or will continue not to be highly effective in hedging the designated exposure, the hedged asset or liability is no longer adjusted for changes in fair value and any basis adjustment is amortized to earnings over the remaining term of the

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
hedged item, unless the hedged item is derecognized, in which case the basis adjustment is recognized in earnings immediately. Additionally, any amounts associated with excluded components in AOCI are reclassified into earnings in the same manner.
For cash flow reporting purposes, the Company classifies proceeds received or amounts paid upon the settlement of a derivative instrument in the same manner as the related item being hedged, primarily within cash from operating activities.
Undesignated Hedges
The Company also enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which are not designated as hedges, to reduce its risks related to exchange rate fluctuations associated with certain cross-currency intercompany loans and payables. The changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded through earnings within Other expense (income) on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, which offset the revaluation of the hedged underlying assets and liabilities.
For cash flow reporting purposes, the Company classifies proceeds received or amounts paid upon the settlement of a derivative instrument in the same manner as the related item being hedged, primarily within cash from operating activities.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and restricted stock units and any other potentially dilutive instruments, only in the periods in which such effects are dilutive under the treasury stock method.
The following is a reconciliation of the weighted-average shares outstanding and calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:
| Three Months Ended | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| Weighted-average diluted shares | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Net income (loss) per share: | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Basic | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Diluted | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||||
Earnings per share amounts have been calculated based on unrounded numbers. Options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price greater than the average market price of the common stock during the reporting period are anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per common share. In addition, the Company has outstanding restricted stock unit awards that are issuable only upon the achievement of certain performance goals. Performance-based restricted stock unit awards are included in the computation of diluted shares only to the extent that the underlying performance conditions and any applicable market condition modifiers (i) are satisfied as of the end of the reporting period or (ii) would be considered satisfied if the end of the reporting period were the end of the related contingency period and the result would be dilutive under the treasury stock method. As of September 26, 2026 and September 27, 2025, there were 0.5 million and 0.6 million, respectively, of additional shares issuable upon exercise of anti-dilutive options and contingent vesting of performance-based restricted stock unit awards, which were excluded from the diluted share calculations.

$2.00 Billion Revolving Credit Facility
On May 22, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to refinance and replace the Company's unsecured revolving facility dated May 11, 2022 (the "Existing Revolving Credit Facility") with a new revolving credit facility (the "Amended Revolving Credit Facility"), among the Company, as borrower, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and a syndicate of banks and financial institutions (collectively, the “Lenders”). Under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, the Lenders have made available to the Company a $2.00 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, including sub-facilities for letters of credit, with a maturity date of May 22, 2030.
Borrowings under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, (i) for borrowings in U.S. Dollars, either (a) an alternate base rate or (b) a term secured overnight financing rate, (ii) for borrowings in Euros, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, (iii) for borrowings in Pounds Sterling, the Sterling Overnight Index Average Reference Rate and (iv) for borrowings in Japanese Yen, the Tokyo Interbank Offer Rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin will be adjusted by reference to a grid (the “Pricing Grid”) based on the ratio of (a) consolidated debt (subject to reduction for certain debt incurred in connection with a pending acquisition or for debt being discharged, satisfied or defeased), to (b) consolidated EBITDAR (the “Gross Leverage Ratio”). Additionally, the Company will pay facility fees, calculated at a rate per annum determined in accordance with the Pricing Grid, on the full amount of the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears, and certain fees with respect to letters of credit that are issued.
Borrowings under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility may be used to finance the working capital needs, capital expenditures, permitted investments, share purchases, dividends and other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries (which may include commercial paper back-up). There were no outstanding borrowings on the Amended Revolving Credit Facility as of September 26, 2026.
Senior Notes
On December 11, 2024, the Company issued $1.50 billion of senior unsecured notes, consisting of $750 million aggregate principal amount of 5.100 % senior unsecured notes due March 11, 2030 at 99.876 % of par (the “5.100 % Senior Notes due 2030”) and $750 million aggregate principal amount of 5.500 % senior unsecured notes due March 11, 2035 at 99.864 % of par (the “5.500 % Senior Notes due 2035”, together with the 5.100 % Senior Notes due 2030, the "2030 and 2035 Senior Notes"). The Company pays interest semi-annually on the 2030 and 2035 Senior Notes on March 11 and September 11 of each year, which commenced on September 11, 2025.
In June 2017, the Company issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125 % senior unsecured notes due July 15, 2027 at 99.858 % of par (the "4.125 % Senior Notes due 2027"). In December 2021, the Company completed a cash tender offer for $203 million of the outstanding aggregate principal amount under its 4.125 % Senior Notes due 2027. In addition, in December 2021, the Company issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.050 % senior unsecured notes due March 15, 2032 at 99.705 % of par (the "3.050 % Senior Notes due 2032").
Commercial Paper Program
On July 24, 2025, the Company entered into a commercial paper borrowing program (the "Commercial Paper Program") that provides for the issuance of up to $2.00 billion of unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities up to 365 days. Borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program are supported by the Amended Revolving Credit Facility and may be used to support the Company's general corporate needs. The aggregate amount of borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program and Amended Revolving Credit Facility will not exceed $2.00 billion. During the three months ended September 26, 2026, the Company issued notes under the Commercial Paper Program with original maturities less than three months. As of September 26, 2026, the Company had $200 million of borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program with a weighted average interest rate of 4.221 %.
China Credit Facility
On May 20, 2024, the Company entered into a short-term credit facility (“China Credit Facility”) with Citibank, which may be used to fund general working capital needs, not to exceed 12 months, and is subject to annual renewal. The China Credit Facility provides the Company with a maximum facility amount of up to RMB 250 million (approximately $37 million), which includes a loan of up to RMB 85 million (approximately $13 million), a bank guarantee facility of up to RMB 15 million (approximately $2 million) and accounts payable financing of up to RMB 150 million (approximately $22 million). Borrowings under the China Credit Facility bear interest at rates based on the People’s Bank of China Loan Prime Rate plus an applicable margin, as determined at the time of each drawdown. As of September 26, 2026, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the China Credit Facility.

Debt Covenants
Under the terms of our debt facilities, we must comply with certain restrictions limiting the Company’s ability to, among other things: (i) incur certain indebtedness, (ii) create certain liens, (iii) enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions, (iv) make certain investments or payments and (v) merge, or consolidate or transfer, sell or lease all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, we are required to comply on a quarterly basis with a maximum net leverage ratio of 4.00 :1.00, which may be increased to 4.50 :1.00 following the consummation of a material acquisition, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Amended Revolving Credit Facility. As of September 26, 2026, we were in compliance with these restrictions and covenants, have met such financial ratios and have met all debt payment obligations.
Fair Value Considerations
The following table shows the estimated fair values of the senior unsecured notes at September 26, 2026 and June 27, 2026 based on external pricing data, including available quoted market prices of the instruments, and consideration of comparable debt instruments with similar interest rates and trading frequency, among other factors, and are classified as Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy:

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. The Company does not have any Level 3 investments.
The following table shows the fair value measurements of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at September 26, 2026 and June 27, 2026:

(2)Short-term investments are recorded at fair value, which approximates their carrying value, and are primarily based upon quoted vendor or broker priced securities in active markets.
(3)The fair value of these derivative instruments is primarily based on the forward curves of the specific indices upon which settlement is based and includes an adjustment for the counterparty’s or Company’s credit risk.

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s non-financial instruments, which primarily consist of goodwill, intangible assets, right-of-use assets and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, on a periodic basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written down to and recorded at fair value, considering market participant assumptions. The Company determines the fair values of these assets based on Level 3 measurements. Inputs to these fair value measurements included estimates of the amounts and the timing of future discounted cash flows based on historical experience, current trends, market conditions and performance expectations.

The agreements, which expire at various dates through calendar 2039, primarily collateralize the Company's obligation to third parties for duties, leases, insurance claims and materials used in product manufacturing. The Company pays certain fees with respect to these instruments that are issued.

Although the Company's litigation can result in large monetary awards, such as when a civil jury is allowed to determine compensatory and/or punitive damages, the Company believes that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on the Company's business or consolidated financial statements. There have been no material developments with respect to any previously reported proceedings.

The Company has two reportable segments:
•Coach - Includes global sales primarily of Coach brand products to customers through our DTC, wholesale and licensing businesses.
•Kate Spade - Includes global sales primarily of Kate Spade New York brand products to customers through our DTC, wholesale and licensing businesses.
The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is its Chief Executive Officer, regularly evaluates operating profit of these segments compared to management's expectations in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Segment operating profit is the gross profit of the segment less direct expenses of the segment. Total expenditures for additions to long-lived assets and assets by segment are not provided to the CODM as such information is not utilized for purposes of assessing performance or allocating resources, and therefore has not been disclosed.
In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has certain corporate expenses that are not directly attributable to its brands ("Unallocated corporate expenses"); therefore, they are not allocated to its segments.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND INDUSTRY TRENDS
Current Trends and Outlook
The environment in which we operate is subject to a number of different factors driving global consumer spending. Consumer preferences, macroeconomic conditions, foreign currency fluctuations and geopolitical events continue to impact overall levels of consumer travel and spending on discretionary items, with inconsistent patterns across business channels and geographies.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the macroeconomic environment remained challenging and volatile. While certain organizations that monitor the global economy continue to forecast growth, these projections remain subject to uncertainty. Continued trade tensions, financial market volatility, elevated interest rates, inflationary pressure and ongoing geopolitical instability continue to pose risks to economic growth and consumer spending.
Import Tariffs
During the second half of fiscal 2025, the U.S. Government announced tariffs on imports from select countries. The majority of the Company's products sold in the U.S. are imported from countries in which these tariffs were announced. Additionally, during the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the President of the United States issued an executive order removing the de minimis exemption for low value shipments imported into the U.S. for all countries beginning August 29, 2025.
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs collected under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") were invalid. The U.S. Court of International Trade ("CIT") subsequently ordered refunds for qualifying customs entries, including applicable interest. U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") established a phased administrative process for submitting refund claims for certain IEEPA tariffs. The Company paid approximately $117 million in IEEPA tariffs. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company received cash refunds related to the previously paid IEEPA tariffs of $2 million which was recognized as a reduction to Cost of sales. In addition, as of June 27, 2026, the Company applied the loss recovery model and determined that the receipt of the remaining refunds of the previously paid but not received IEEPA tariffs was probable. The Company estimated the amount of the probable refund to be $115 million, of which $96 million was recognized as a reduction to Cost of sales, $10 million was recorded as Accrued liabilities and $9 million was applied as a reduction to tariffs that remained in Inventory. During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the Company collected substantially all the cash related to the tariff refund. The Company also received $4 million of related interest which was recorded as a reduction to Selling, general and administrative expenses and recognized $9 million as a reduction of Cost of sales related to tariffs included in Inventory as of June 27, 2026. Collectively, these items resulted in a $13 million benefit to Operating income during the first quarter of fiscal 2027.
Following the Supreme Court's decision, the U.S. Administration announced a 10% global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 which became effective February 24, 2026, for a period of up to 150 days, which expired on July 24, 2026. On May 7, 2026, the CIT ruled the Section 122 tariffs were invalid. The government has appealed the ruling and the Company is awaiting a decision from the U.S. Court of Appeals. On July 23, 2026, the U.S. Administration announced the final remedy in the Section 301 investigations relating to forced labor practices, imposing new tariff rates ranging from 10% to 12.5% on most imports from certain countries, effective upon the expiration of the temporary Section 122 tariffs. The outlook for future trade policy remains uncertain. The Company continues to monitor these developments, assess their potential impact on its business and implement mitigation strategies where possible.
Conflict in the Middle East
The conflict in the Middle East, which began during the third quarter of fiscal 2026, has contributed to heightened geopolitical uncertainty, including impacts to global supply chains and energy prices. The Company does not have directly operated stores in the Middle East and has a minimal distributor business, which represented less than 1% of the Company’s total Net sales for fiscal 2026. While the Company has not experienced a material impact to its operations or financial results to date, the Company continues to closely monitor developments and their potential macroeconomic effects on its business, including from global supply chain disruptions, increased transportation and energy costs, and changes in consumer sentiment and spending in the Middle East and other geographies across the globe.
Foreign Exchange Impact
In the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the U.S. Dollar continued to fluctuate as compared to foreign currencies in regions where we conduct our business. This trend has resulted in impacts to our business including, but not limited to, for the three months ended September 26, 2026, increased Net sales by $1 million and positively impacted gross margin and operating margin by approximately 20 basis points and 10 basis points, respectively.
24
Seasonality
The Company's results are typically affected by seasonal trends. During the first fiscal quarter, we typically build inventory for the winter and holiday season. In the second fiscal quarter, working capital requirements are reduced substantially as we generate higher net sales and operating income, especially during the holiday season. Fluctuations in net sales, operating income and operating cash flows of the Company in any fiscal quarter may be affected by the timing of wholesale shipments and other events affecting retail sales, including weather and macroeconomic events.
We continue to monitor these global economic conditions and industry trends in order to evaluate and adjust our operating strategies and cost management opportunities to mitigate the related impact on our results of operations, while remaining focused on the long-term growth of our business and protecting the value of our brands. For a detailed discussion of significant risk factors that have the potential to cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations, see Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" herein and as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 27, 2026.

Excluding items affecting comparability, operating income increased $102 million to $590 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 from $488 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026; and operating margin increased 130 basis points to 35.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to 34.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. This increase in operating margin was primarily attributed to:
◦Gross margin, increased 170 basis points mainly due to net pricing improvements and favorable net tariff impacts;
◦SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, increased 40 basis points mainly due to higher marketing spend, higher occupancy costs, partially offset by leverage of fixed costs on higher net sales.
•Kate Spade Operating Loss increased $26 million to a loss of $20 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Operating margin decreased to (8.7)% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to 2.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding items affecting comparability, operating loss increased $12 million to a loss of $6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 from Operating income of $6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026; and operating margin decreased 490 basis points to (2.7)% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to 2.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. This decrease in operating margin was primarily attributed to:
◦Gross margin, increased 190 basis points mainly due to favorable net tariff impacts and net pricing improvements;
◦SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, increased 680 basis points mainly driven by higher marketing spend and deleverage of fixed costs on lower net sales.
•Corporate Operating Expenses decreased 11.5% or $18 million to $146 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027. Excluding items affecting comparability, Corporate operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased 70 basis points to 7.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to 8.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026; and operating expenses increased $5 million to $145 million from $140 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher compensation costs, partially offset by lower professional fees.
Interest Expense, net
Net interest expense remained even at $13 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Other Expense (Income)
Other income decreased $4 million to other expense of less than $1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to Other income of $4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. This decrease in other income was related to a decrease in foreign exchange gains.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 12.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to 13.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding items affecting comparability, the effective tax rate was 12.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to 13.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The decrease in effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the geographical mix of earnings.
Net Income (Loss)
Net income increased 31.0% or $85 million to $360 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to $275 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding items affecting comparability, net income increased $74 million to $371 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 from $297 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
31
Net Income (Loss) per Share
Net income per diluted share was $1.76 in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to net income per diluted share of $1.28 in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding items affecting comparability, net income per diluted share increased $0.44 to $1.82 in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 from $1.38 in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily due to higher net income.
32
NON-GAAP MEASURES
The Company’s reported results are presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company presents certain non-GAAP measures, including segment operating income (loss), segment SG&A expenses, segment gross profit, SG&A expense ratio, operating margin, Operating Income (loss), Provision for income taxes, Net income (loss) and Net Income (loss) per diluted common share, which exclude items affecting comparability.
These non-GAAP performance measures were used by management to conduct and evaluate its business during its regular review of operating results for the periods affected. Management and the Company’s Board utilized these non-GAAP measures to make decisions about the uses of Company resources, analyze performance between periods, develop internal projections and measure management performance. The Company’s internal management reporting excluded these items. In addition, the HR Committee of the Company’s Board uses these non-GAAP measures when setting and assessing achievement of incentive compensation goals.
Items affecting comparability in the current or comparable periods, as applicable, include:
•Distribution Network Optimization Costs - The Company incurred Distribution Network Optimization Costs which consist of non-recurring costs, primarily related to optimizing its distribution centers. These costs mainly relate to the transition from our Ohio fulfillment center to a third-party facility in Pennsylvania.
•Acquisition and Divestiture Costs - The Company incurred Acquisition and Divestiture items which consist of non-recurring costs related to the Stuart Weitzman Business Divestiture, inclusive of professional fees, one-time severance costs, compensation costs, operating net loss and TSA income.
•Organizational Efficiency Costs - The Company also incurred Organizational Efficiency Costs which consist of non-recurring costs, primarily from various initiatives aimed at streamlining the organization and optimizing processes. These costs mainly include one-time technology and severance related charges.
The Company operates on a global basis and reports financial results in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect the amounts reported by the Company in U.S. dollars with respect to its foreign revenues and profit. Accordingly, certain material increases and decreases in operating results for the Company and its segments have been presented both including and excluding currency fluctuation effects. These effects occur from translating foreign-denominated amounts into U.S. dollars and comparing to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. The Company calculates constant currency revenue results by translating current period revenue in local currency using the prior year period's currency conversion rate.
We believe these non-GAAP measures are 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, we believe presenting certain increases and decreases in constant currency provides a framework for assessing the performance of the Company's business outside the United States and helps investors and analysts understand the effect of significant year-over-year currency fluctuations. We believe excluding these items assists investors and others in developing expectations of future performance.
By providing the non-GAAP measures, as a supplement to GAAP information, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. Further, these non-GAAP measures may be unique to the Company, as they may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
For a detailed discussion on these non-GAAP measures, see the GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation discussions above in this Item 2. "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents decreased by $376 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to a decrease of $381 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as discussed below.
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $84 million primarily due to higher net income of $85 million, changes in operating assets and liabilities of $38 million, partially offset by lower impact of non-cash adjustments of $39 million.
The $38 million increase in changes in operating asset and liability balances were primarily driven by the following:
•Other assets was a source of cash of $110 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to a use of cash of $54 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily driven by collection in the current year of IEEPA and tax refunds.
•Inventory was a use of cash of $222 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to a use of cash of $161 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily driven by increased inventory purchases for Coach to support sales growth.
•Accounts receivable were a use of cash of $106 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to a use of cash of $46 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily driven by an increase in wholesale sales at Coach.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was $53 million as compared to a source of cash of $69 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, resulting in a $122 million decrease in net cash provided by investing activities.
The $53 million use of cash in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was primarily due to purchases of property and equipment of $48 million and purchases of investments of $21 million, partially offset by proceeds from maturities and sales of investments of $16 million.
The $69 million source of cash in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was primarily due to proceeds from the divestiture of the Stuart Weitzman business of $109 million, partially offset by purchases of property and equipment of $32 million.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $526 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to a use of cash of $551 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, resulting in a net decrease in use of cash for financing activities of $25 million.
The $526 million of cash used in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 was primarily due to repurchase of common stock of $603 million.
The $551 million of cash used in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was primarily due to repurchase of common stock of $698 million, partially offset by proceeds from commercial paper, net of $240 million.
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was $6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2027 as compared to $(12) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

(1) As of September 26, 2026, approximately 67% of our cash and short-term investments were held outside the United States.
(2) Refer to Note 11, "Debt" for discussion of the carrying values of our debt.
Sources of Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated from our operations, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, availability under our credit facilities, and other available financing options.
The following table presents the total availability, borrowings outstanding and remaining availability under our credit facilities as of September 26, 2026:

(1) Refer to Note 11, "Debt" for further information on these instruments.
(2) Borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program are supported by the Amended Revolving Credit Facility. Accordingly, aggregate borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program and the Amended Revolving Credit Facility will not exceed $2.00 billion.
(3) The carrying amounts of the China Credit Facility include the impact of changes in the exchange rate of the United States Dollar against the Renminbi.
We believe that our Amended Revolving Credit Facility is adequately diversified with no undue concentrations in any one financial institution. As of September 26, 2026, there were 18 financial institutions participating in the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, with no one participant maintaining a combined maximum commitment percentage in excess of 10%. We have no reason to believe at this time that the participating institutions will be unable to fulfill their obligations to provide financing in accordance with the terms of the facility in the event we elect to draw funds in the foreseeable future.
We have the ability to draw on our credit facilities or access other financing options available to us in the credit and capital markets for, among other things, acquisition or integration-related costs, our restructuring initiatives, settlement of a material contingency, or a material adverse business or macroeconomic development, as well as for other general corporate business purposes.
Management believes that existing cash balances, cash flows from operations, existing credit facilities, our commercial paper program, and access to capital markets will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our debt obligations, including any repayment of debt or refinancing of debt, working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, other contractual obligations and payment of anticipated quarterly dividends for at least the next twelve months and the foreseeable future thereafter.
Reference should be made to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the SEC for additional information regarding liquidity and capital resources.
35
Commercial Paper Program
On July 24, 2025, the Company entered into a commercial paper borrowing program (the "Commercial Paper Program") that provides for the issuance of up to $2.00 billion of unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities up to 365 days. Borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program are supported by the Amended Revolving Credit Facility and may be used to support the Company's general corporate needs. The aggregate amount of borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program and Amended Revolving Credit Facility will not exceed $2.00 billion. During the three months ended September 26, 2026, the Company issued notes under the Commercial Paper Program with original maturities less than three months. As of September 26, 2026, the Company had $200 million of borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program with a weighted average interest rate of 4.221%.
IEEPA Tariff Refund
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs collected under the IEEPA were invalid. The CIT subsequently ordered refunds for qualifying customs entries, including applicable interest. CBP established a phased administrative process for submitting refund claims for certain IEEPA tariffs.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company received cash refunds related to the previously paid IEEPA tariffs of $2 million which was recognized as a reduction to Cost of sales. In addition, as of June 27, 2026, the Company applied the loss recovery model and determined that the receipt of the remaining refunds of the previously paid IEEPA tariffs was probable. The Company estimated the amount of the probable refund to be $115 million, of which $96 million was recognized as a reduction to Cost of sales, $10 million was recorded as Accrued liabilities and $9 million was applied as a reduction to tariffs that remained in Inventory. During the first quarter of fiscal 2027, the Company collected substantially all the cash related to the tariff refund.
Supply Chain Finance
To improve our working capital efficiency, we make available to certain suppliers a voluntary supply chain finance (“SCF”) program that enables our suppliers to sell their receivables from the Company to a global financial institution on a non-recourse basis at a rate that leverages our credit rating. We do not have the ability to refinance or modify payment terms to the global financial institution through the SCF program. No guarantees are provided by the Company or any of our subsidiaries under the SCF program. Refer to Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Organization," for additional information.
Capital Expenditures
During the three months ended September 26, 2026, capital expenditures and cloud computing implementation costs were $55 million. The Company expects total fiscal 2027 capital expenditures and cloud computing costs to be approximately $300 million. Certain cloud computing implementation costs are recognized within Prepaid expenses and Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Stock Repurchase Plan
2026 Share Repurchase Program
On September 10, 2025, the Company announced that the Board authorized the Company to repurchase up to $3.00 billion of its outstanding common stock (the "2026 Share Repurchase Program"). During the three months ended September 26, 2026, the Company repurchased $600 million of common stock. As of September 26, 2026, the Company had $1.29 billion of remaining repurchase authorization under the 2026 Share Repurchase Program.
36
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2026. Our discussion of results of operations and financial condition relies on our condensed consolidated financial statements that are prepared based on certain critical accounting policies that require management to make judgments and estimates which are subject to varying degrees of uncertainty. While we believe that these accounting policies are based on sound measurement criteria, actual future events can and often do result in outcomes that can be materially different from these estimates or forecasts.
For a complete discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" section of the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2026. As of September 26, 2026, there have been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies.
The Company performs its annual impairment assessment of goodwill as well as brand intangibles at the beginning of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. In all fiscal years, the fair values of our Coach brand reporting units significantly exceeded their respective carrying values. The fair values of the Kate Spade brand reporting unit and indefinite-lived brand intangible asset as of the fiscal 2026 testing date exceeded their respective carrying values by approximately 30%. Several factors could impact the Kate Spade brand's ability to achieve expected future cash flows, including the optimization of the store fleet productivity, the success of international expansion strategies, the impact of promotional activity, continued economic volatility and potential operational challenges related to the macroeconomic factors, the reception of new collections in all business channels and other initiatives aimed at increasing profitability of the business. If profitability trends decline during fiscal 2027 from those that are expected, it is possible that an interim test, or our annual impairment test, could result in an impairment of these assets.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no significant changes to the Company's market risk or the way the Company manages these exposures as set forth in Part II, Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 27, 2026. Refer to Note 8, "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and Note 11, "Debt," included in Part I of this Form 10-Q for additional information.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have evaluated under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the fiscal quarter-end covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of fiscal 2027 that were identified in connection with management's evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
