On Capri Holdings' fourth quarter fiscal 2026 earnings call, John Idol stated that actions taken to improve quality of sales—including reducing promotional activity, third-party sales, and off-price shipments, as well as store optimization—reduced fiscal 2026 revenue by over $150 million. He said this headwind is expected to moderate as fiscal 2027 progresses and that these steps have strengthened Michael Kors and positioned it for improved performance. Idol noted that the company recorded a refund receivable for $65 million in AIPA tariffs paid in fiscal 2026, with $40 million reflected as a reduction to cost of goods sold in the fourth quarter and the remaining $25 million recorded as a reduction to inventory that will flow through cost of goods sold in the first half of fiscal 2027. Idol also discussed changes in the Michael Kors outlet channel, citing a reduction in promotional activity and new product introductions that have led to increases in average unit retail and full-price selling. He said the company is targeting low single-digit growth next year with operating margin expansion of approximately 60% and earnings per share growth of about 40%, adding that he believes Capri is on the right trajectory to return to sustainable growth.
