Read full summary
Tapestry delivered a strong fiscal 2026 recovery, with revenue up 14.2% to $8.00 billion, operating margin rising to 23.9% and diluted EPS reaching $7.27. Coach supplied most of the momentum, while Kate Spade remains the key weakness with declining sales, lower adjusted margin and a small impairment cushion. Strong operating cash flow supported $1.55 billion of repurchases and a $326.1 million dividend, but tariff uncertainty and the fulfillment-network transition create execution risks. The fiscal 2027 outlook remains constructive, calling for $8.4-$8.5 billion of revenue and $7.80-$7.90 of non-GAAP EPS.

What stood out
-

Fiscal 2026 net sales increased 14.2% to $8,004.2 million from $7,010.7 million in fiscal 2025 and $6,671.2 million in fiscal 2024. Operating income rose to $1,914.4 million from $415.0 million and $1,140.1 million, respectively.
-
Coach drove growth and margin expansion
Coach was the principal growth engine: revenue increased 23.5% to $6,914.7 million, while operating income increased 35.5% to $2,541.2 million. Coach operating margin expanded to 36.8% from 33.5%.

What to watch
-
Tariffs remain a major margin risk
Tariff policy remains a material earnings risk. The filing states that fiscal 2026 gross margin was negatively affected by approximately 130 basis points on an adjusted basis; the company paid approximately $117 million of IEEPA tariffs and recorded a probable refund receivable of $114.7 million. New Section 301 tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% became effective after the temporary Section 122 tariffs expired, and mitigation efforts may not be effective.
-
Kate Spade turnaround and impairment risk
Kate Spade’s operating performance deteriorated despite the absence of a new impairment charge. Revenue declined 10.2% to $1,074.9 million, adjusted gross margin fell 370 basis points to 63.0%, and adjusted operating loss was $27.2 million versus $91.3 million of operating income in fiscal 2025. The brand’s $381.9 million of goodwill and $699.1 million of indefinite-lived brand intangible assets exceeded carrying value by approximately 30%, but further deterioration in fiscal 2027 could trigger another impairment.
-
Fulfillment-center transition adds execution risk
The company is transitioning its 601,000-square-foot Ohio fulfillment center to a third-party facility in Pennsylvania, with completion expected in the first half of fiscal 2027. The filing identifies potential order-processing and delivery disruptions, increased costs and reliance on the new third-party operator during and after the transition.
Management's outlook
The 10-K does not provide numeric fiscal 2027 guidance; the quantitative outlook was provided in the August 13, 2026 earnings release/call. Fiscal 2027 outlook calls for $8.4-$8.5 billion of revenue, $7.80-$7.90 non-GAAP EPS and approximately 50 basis points of operating-margin expansion. The 53rd week is excluded from the outlook and is expected to add approximately 1 percentage point to annual revenue growth.
