Tapestry, Inc. (TPR - Free Report) ), which was formerly known as Coach, Inc., is the designer and marketer of fine accessories and gifts for women and men in the United States and internationally. Tapestry continues to strengthen its position as a leading global house of brands, driven by the strong performance of Coach. The core brand is effectively attracting Gen Z consumers, achieving growth in both unit volume and pricing power. This demand, along with a more focused portfolio after the strategic divestiture of lower-margin segments, is fueling significant gross margin expansion and strong operating leverage. Adjusted gross margin rose 110 basis points in the second quarter. International markets, especially Greater China and Europe, are providing further opportunities for sustained growth. Supported by a strong balance sheet and higher capital returns, Tapestry is effectively resetting its earnings base. Management has raised its fiscal 2026 view, projecting revenues above $7.75 billion and EPS between $6.40 and $6.45.
