NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 30, 2013--Coach, Inc. (NYSE: COH)(SEHK: 6388), a leading New York design house of modern luxury accessories, today reported net sales of $1.22 billion for its fourth fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2013, compared with $1.16 billion reported in the same period of the prior year, an increase of 6%. On a constant currency basis sales rose 9% for the quarter. Net income for the quarter totaled $254 million, with earnings per diluted share of $0.89, excluding unusual items. This compared to net income of $251 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.86, in the prior year’s fourth quarter. Reported net income totaled $221 million with earnings per diluted share of $0.78.

For the fiscal year, net sales rose 7% to $5.08 billion from $4.76 billion the prior fiscal year while net income excluding unusual items increased 3% to $1.07 billion from $1.04 billion. On a constant currency basis sales rose 8% for the year. In addition, diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis rose 6% to $3.73 from $3.53. Reported net income for the year totaled $1.03 billion and earnings per diluted share were $3.61.

Lew Frankfort, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Coach, Inc. said, “During the fourth quarter we approached double-digit growth in constant currency and continued to gain overall traction on our key strategies supporting our brand transformation. We generated strong international results, leveraged the Men’s opportunity globally, strengthened our digital capabilities and drove excellent initial results in the re-launch of footwear. While we maintained our outstanding profitability levels, we were not satisfied with our performance in the Women’s handbag and accessories category in North America.”

“Fiscal 2013 was also a year of many milestones, including the acquisition of our retail businesses in Malaysia and Korea and the transition of Coach Europe to a directly operated business just after the close of the year. During fiscal 2013, our Men’s business grew nearly 50% to over $600 million at retail. In China, our fastest growing market, sales grew 40% and totaled about $430 million. We also continued to make significant strides in strengthening our senior creative team.”

For the quarter, on a non-GAAP basis, operating income totaled $371 million, essentially even with the year-ago period, while operating margin was 30.3% versus 32.1%. During the quarter, gross profit rose 6% to $892 million from $838 million reported a year ago, while gross margin was 73.0% versus 72.6%. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, totaled 42.6%, compared to the 40.5% reported in the year-ago quarter, reflecting the acquisition of retail businesses in Asia earlier in the year.

For the quarter, reported operating income totaled $318 million, while operating margin was 26.0%. Gross profit was $887 million, while gross margin was 72.6%. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, totaled 46.6%. On a reported basis, operating income for the fourth quarter of FY12 was $352 million with a 30.4% margin and the SG&A expense ratio was 42.1%.

For the full year FY13, on a non-GAAP basis, operating income totaled $1.58 billion, 2% above the $1.55 billion reported in the year ago period, while operating margin was 31.1% versus 32.6%. During the year, gross profit rose 7% to $3.70 billion from $3.47 billion a year ago. Gross margin was 73.0% versus 72.8% a year ago. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, totaled 41.9%, compared to the 40.2% reported in fiscal 2012.

For the full year FY13, reported operating income totaled $1.52 billion, while operating margin was 30.0%. Gross profit was $3.70 billion, while gross margin was 72.9%. SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, totaled 42.8%. On a reported basis, operating income for the fiscal year 2012 was $1.51 billion with a 31.7% margin and the SG&A expense ratio was 41.0%.

During the fourth quarter of FY13, the company recorded charges of $53 million for unusual items. These consisted primarily of corporate restructuring severance-related expenses, impairment charges related to retail stores as well as a write down of a small amount of inventory. In aggregate, these actions increased the company’s SG&A expenses by $48 million and cost of sales by $5 million in the period, negatively impacting earnings by $33 million after tax or $0.11 per diluted share. Taken together, the company expects to capture over $50 million in annual savings related to these measures.

The company announced that it has entered into a binding agreement to sell the Reed Krakoff business to a group led by Mr. Krakoff. The sale is anticipated to close in the first quarter of FY14. Mr. Krakoff will depart the company upon the sale of the business. The company does not believe this transaction will have a material impact to its first quarter FY14.

Jane Hamilton Nielsen, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Coach, Inc. added, “These restructuring actions will drive efficiencies across our business by streamlining our organization and leveraging our global capabilities and technology. In addition, these savings will, in part, fund key initiatives related to our transformation, notably increases in brand support. At the same time, our strong balance sheet and substantial operating cash flow will allow us to continue to return capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases while reinvesting and growing the Coach brand globally.”

The company had previously announced that during fiscal year 2013, it repurchased and retired over seven million shares of its common stock at an average cost of $56.61, spending a total of $400 million. At the end of the year approximately $1.4 billion remained under the company’s current repurchase authorization.

In Japan, seven locations were opened - taking the total to 191 directly-operated locations at the end of the year. In addition, at year-end, the company operated 48 locations in Korea, 27 in Taiwan, ten in Malaysia and seven in Singapore. Shortly after the quarter ended, the company acquired the remaining interest in the Coach Europe joint venture, taking control of 18 locations in the U.K., Spain, Ireland, Portugal, France and Germany.

Victor Luis, President and Chief Commercial Officer of Coach, Inc., added, “As we look forward to FY14, we will further enrich and build out the Coach experience through product, retail environments and marketing. During the holiday season, consumers will see a fuller expression of the Coach brand, with the arrival of a limited edition capsule collection across all product categories. Our intent is to drive brand relevance, building upon our leadership position and laying the foundation for future growth.”

“To that end, we’re particularly enthusiastic about the arrival of Stuart Vevers, our new Executive Creative Director, who will join us in September. Stuart’s broad luxury brand experience and considerable success, focused on leather goods, uniquely qualify him to provide creative leadership in Coach’s next chapter.”

Separately, Mike Tucci, President - North American Group, and Jerry Stritzke, President and Chief Operating Officer, have informed the company of their decisions to leave and will depart Coach at the end of August.

Mr. Frankfort commented, “Mike Tucci and Jerry Stritzke have both been instrumental in the development and execution of Coach’s strategies. Their contributions building Coach into a leading international accessories brand are considerable and we have great admiration and respect for their significant accomplishments.”

Concurrently, the company announced several key executive appointments:

We’re confident that this new organizational structure – with an intensified focus on our North American business – comprised of proven Coach leaders, will successfully drive Coach’s transformation strategy.”
