Capri Holdings Ltd

Capri Holdings delivered quite a strong result which happened to be an all-around beat. The company’s strong revenue growth as well as its good earnings per share were driven by the momentum over three of its luxury houses that reflects the continued execution of its strategic initiatives and the power of its brands. The initial response to the company’s new Greca pillar has been positive. With the three pillars, Greca, Virtus, and La Medusa making significant progress, the goal of the company is to position Versace as the prominent luxury leather house. In fact, the sales of this quarter were driven strongly by the styles that feature a spectrum of Versace codes which includes Medusa and Greca. Versace is continuing to gain authority as a luxury footwear brand for women as it expanded its core offering aimed at iconic codes. Capri also expanded its core lines that incorporate iconic house codes for broadening the reach of Versace. Michael Kors, its largest brand, is now selling second-hand products as well on its Michael Kors Pre-Loved platform which is an interesting development. Its Bon Bon brand has also performed quite well. After its recent spike, we provide the stock of Capri Holdings with a ‘Hold’ rating with a revision in the target price.
