Additionally, we continue to leverage various third-party digital platforms to sell our products to customers.

WHOLESALE BUSINESS

Our wholesale business primarily includes major department stores, specialty stores, and third-party digital partners. We work closely with our wholesale partners to ensure a clear and consistent product presentation. We enhance our presentation with proprietary brand fixtures within the department store environment in select locations. We custom tailor our assortments through wholesale product planning and allocation processes to match the attributes to the consumers of our wholesale partners in each local market. We continue to closely monitor inventories held by our wholesale customers in an effort to optimize inventory levels across wholesale doors. Wholesale represented approximately 12% of our total net sales for fiscal 2024. As of June 29, 2024, there were no customers who individually accounted for more than 10% of each segment’s total net sales.

LICENSING BUSINESS

Our brands take an active role in the design process and control the marketing and distribution of products in our worldwide licensing relationships. Our key licensing relationships and their fiscal year expirations as of June 29, 2024 are as follows:

Brand	Category	Partner	Fiscal Year Expiration

Our licensing partners generally pay royalties on their net sales of our branded products. Such royalties currently comprise approximately 1% of Tapestry's total net sales.

DESIGN AND MERCHANDISING

Our creative leaders are responsible for conceptualizing and implementing the design direction for our brands across the consumer touchpoints of product, stores and marketing. At Tapestry, each brand has a dedicated design and merchandising team; this ensures that Coach, Kate Spade and Stuart Weitzman speak to their customers with a voice and positioning unique to their brand. Designers have access to the brands' extensive archives of product designs, which are a valuable resource for product concepts. Our designers collaborate with strong merchandising teams that analyze sales, market trends and consumer preferences to identify market opportunities that help guide each season's design process and create a globally relevant product assortment. Leveraging our strategic investments that we have made in data and analytics tools, merchandisers are able to gain a deeper understanding of customer behavior which empowers our teams to respond to changes in consumer preferences and demand as well as scale opportunities across brands with greater speed and efficiency. Our merchandising teams are committed to managing the product life cycle to maximize sales and profitability across all business channels. The product category teams, each comprised of design, merchandising, product development and sourcing specialists, help each brand execute design concepts that are consistent with the brand's strategic direction.

6

Our design and merchandising teams also work in close collaboration with all of our licensing partners to ensure that the licensed products are conceptualized and designed to address the intended market opportunity and convey the distinctive perspective and lifestyle associated with our brands.

MARKETING

We use a 360-degree approach to marketing for each of our brands, synchronizing our efforts across all business channels to ensure consistency at every touchpoint. Our global marketing strategy is to deliver a consistent, relevant and multi-layered message every time the consumer comes in contact with our brands through our communications and visual merchandising. Each brand's distinctive positioning is communicated by our creative marketing, visual merchandising and public relations teams, as well as outside creative agencies. We also have a sophisticated consumer and market research capability, which helps us assess consumer attitudes and trends.

We engage in several consumer communication initiatives globally, including direct marketing activities at a national, regional and local level. Total expenses attributable to the Company's marketing-related activities in fiscal 2024 were $616.8 million, representing over 9% of net sales, compared to $570.7 million in fiscal 2023, representing less than 9% of net sales.

Our wide range of marketing activities utilize a variety of media, including digital, social, print and out-of-home. Our respective brand websites serve as effective communication vehicles by providing an immersive brand experience, showcasing the fullest expression across all product categories.

As part of our direct marketing strategy, we use databases of consumers to generate personalized communications in direct channels such as email and text messages to drive engagement and build awareness. Email contacts are an important part of our communication and are sent to selected consumers to stimulate consumer purchases and build brand awareness. Visitors to our e-commerce sites provide an opportunity to increase the size of these consumer databases, in addition to serving as a point of transactions globally, except where restricted.

The Company has several regional informational websites for locations where we have not established an e-commerce presence. The Company utilizes and continues to explore digital technologies such as social media websites as a cost-effective consumer communication opportunity to increase on-line and store sales, acquire new customers and build brand awareness.

MANUFACTURING

Tapestry carefully balances its commitments to a limited number of “better brand” partners that have demonstrated integrity, quality and reliable delivery. The Company continues to evaluate new manufacturing sources and geographies to deliver high quality products at competitive costs and to mitigate the impact of manufacturing in inflationary markets.

Our raw material suppliers, independent manufacturers and licensing partners must achieve and maintain high quality standards, which are an integral part of our brands' identity. Before directly partnering with a new manufacturing vendor for finished goods, the Company evaluates each facility by conducting a quality, business practice standards and social compliance review. We expect finished good manufacturers to undergo a social compliance audit before being approved as a Tapestry supplier. Manufacturers working with our licensed partners are expected to have had an acceptable social compliance audit conducted within the prior six months of their onboarding date. Suppliers that fail to meet our standards are not approved until an acceptable report is provided. We also conduct periodic evaluations of existing, previously approved finished good suppliers. We believe that our manufacturing partners are in material compliance with the Company’s integrity standards.

These independent manufacturers each or in aggregate support a broad mix of product types, materials and a seasonal influx of new, fashion-oriented styles, which allows us to meet shifts in marketplace demand and changes in consumer preferences.

We have longstanding relationships with purveyors of fine leathers and hardware. Although our products are manufactured by independent manufacturers, we maintain a strong level of oversight in the selection of key raw materials and compliance with quality control standards is monitored through on-site quality inspections at independent manufacturing facilities.

We maintain strong oversight of the supply chain process for each of our brands from design through manufacturing. We are able to do this by maintaining sourcing management offices in Vietnam, mainland China, the Philippines, Cambodia and Spain that work closely with our independent manufacturers. This broad-based, global manufacturing strategy is designed to optimize the mix of cost, lead times and construction capabilities.

During fiscal 2024, manufacturers of Coach products were primarily located in Vietnam, Cambodia, the Philippines and India and no individual vendor provided 10% or more of the brand's total inventory purchases. During fiscal 2024, Kate Spade products were manufactured primarily in Vietnam, Cambodia, mainland China, and the Philippines and no individual vendor provided 10% or more of the brand's total inventory purchases. Stuart Weitzman products were primarily manufactured in

7

Spain. During fiscal 2024, Stuart Weitzman had two vendors, both located in Spain, who individually provided over 10% of the brand's total units (approximately 23% across both, in the aggregate).

FULFILLMENT

The Company’s distribution network is designed to support the movement of each brand's products from our manufacturers to fulfillment centers around the world. These fulfillment centers are either directly operated by the Company or by independent third parties, some of which support multiple brands. Our facilities use bar code scanning warehouse management systems, where our fulfillment center employees use handheld scanners to read product bar codes. This allows for accurate storage and order processing and allows us to provide excellent service to our customers. These facilities are also integrated into our Enterprise Resource Planning system, ensuring accurate inventory reporting. Our products are primarily shipped to retail stores, wholesale customers and e-commerce customers.

In North America, we maintain fulfillment centers in Florida, Nevada and Ohio, operated by Tapestry. The Company also has third-party facilities in Canada and Mexico. Globally, we utilize regional fulfillment centers in mainland China, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Spain, owned and operated by third parties, that support multiple countries. We also utilize local fulfillment centers, through third-parties in Japan, parts of Greater China, South Korea, Malaysia, Spain, the U.K., Canada and Australia.

INFORMATION SYSTEMS

The Company’s information systems are integral in supporting the Company’s long-term strategies. Our information technology platform is a key capability used to support digital growth and drive consumer centricity and data-driven decision making. We are continually enhancing our digital technology platforms to elevate our e-commerce capabilities, direct-to-consumer functionalities, and overall omni-channel experience, by utilizing cloud-based technology infrastructure. For example, we will continue to enhance certain of our machine learning models to improve our customer capture and segmentation capabilities.

The Company utilizes a cloud based digital platform which connects our customer shopping sites, Order Management Systems, Point of Sale systems, and product management systems into one platform with a shared codebase. This platform allows us to be a more dynamic and responsive company providing best-in-class service to our customers from all brands across North America, Europe and Japan.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Tapestry owns COACH, KATE SPADE and STUART WEITZMAN, as well as all of the material trademark, design and patent-rights related to the production, marketing, distribution and sale of our products in the United States and other countries in which our products are principally sold. In addition, the Company licenses trademarks and copyrights used in connection with the production, marketing and distribution of certain categories of goods and limited edition collaborations. Tapestry also owns and maintains registrations in countries around the world for trademarks in relevant classes of products and services. In addition, Tapestry owns trade dress, copyrights, design patents and utility patents for its brands' product designs. Tapestry aggressively polices its intellectual property and pursues infringers both domestically and internationally. The Company pursues counterfeiters through leads generated internally, as well as through its network of investigators, law enforcement and customs officials, the respective online reporting form for each brand, the Tapestry hotline and business partners around the world.

SEASONALITY

The Company's results are typically affected by seasonal trends. During the first fiscal quarter, we typically build inventory for the winter and holiday season. In the second fiscal quarter, working capital requirements are reduced substantially as we generate higher net sales and operating income, especially during the holiday season.

Fluctuations in net sales, operating income and operating cash flows of the Company in any fiscal quarter may be affected by the timing of wholesale shipments and other events affecting retail sales, including weather and macroeconomic events, such as pandemic diseases.

COVID-19 PANDEMIC

The Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in varying degrees of business disruption for the Company since it began in fiscal 2020 and has impacted all regions around the world, resulting in restrictions and shutdowns implemented by national, state and local authorities. Such disruptions persisted into the beginning of fiscal 2023, and the Company's results in Greater China (mainland China, Hong Kong SAR, Macao SAR and Taiwan) were adversely impacted as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Towards the end of the first half of fiscal 2023, certain government restrictions were lifted in the region and business trends improved. During fiscal 2024, the Covid-19 pandemic did not materially impact our business or operating results. The Company continues to monitor the latest developments regarding the Covid-19 pandemic and potential impacts on our business, operating results and outlook.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Most of the Company's imported products are subject to duties, indirect taxes, quotas and non-tariff trade barriers that may limit the quantity of products that we may import into the U.S. and other countries or may impact the cost of such products. The Company is not materially restricted by quotas or other government restrictions in the operation of its business; however, customs duties do represent a component of total product cost. To maximize opportunities, the Company operates complex supply chains through foreign trade zones, bonded logistic parks and other strategic initiatives such as free trade agreements. Additionally, the Company operates a direct import business in many countries worldwide. As a result, the Company is subject to stringent government regulations and restrictions, adding significant complexity with respect to its cross-border activity either by the various customs and border protection agencies or by other government agencies which control the quality, safety and sustainability of the Company’s products. The Company maintains an internal global trade, customs and product compliance organization to help manage its import/export and regulatory affairs activity.

COMPETITION

The Company faces intense competition from many other brands in the product lines and markets that we participate. In varying degrees, depending on the product category involved, we compete on the basis of style, price, customer service, quality, brand prestige and recognition, among others. Over the last decade, these brands have grown and are expected to continue to grow, encouraging the entry of new competitors as well as increasing the competition from existing competitors. This increased competition drives interest in these brand loyal categories. We believe, however, that we have significant competitive advantages because of the recognition and the acceptance of our brands by consumers and the power of our information technology platform.

CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY

As a people-centered and purpose led Company, Tapestry believes that a better-made future is one that is both beautiful and responsible. Our Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (“ESG”) strategy, the Fabric of Change, aims to unite teams across the Company’s business to work to meet our Corporate Responsibility Goals ("ESG Goals") and a shared objective: to create a company of the future that balances true fashion authority with meaningful, positive change. The Fabric of Change focuses on four pillars: Power of Our People, Sustain the Planet, Uplift Our Communities and Create Products with Care.

•Power of Our People:

◦We aim to foster a culture of purpose and fulfillment at Tapestry by embedding Equity, Inclusion and Diversity (“EI&D") throughout our organization and attracting and retaining talent with a compelling and engaging employee experience.

◦We have set goals focused on building diversity in our leadership team, reducing differences in our employee survey results based on gender and ethnicity, focusing on progression and establishing core wellness standards to enable our employees to manage their work and personal lives.

◦We tie 10% of leadership annual incentive plan compensation to EI&D goals on a global basis level.

•Sustain the Planet:

◦We aim to sustain and restore our planet through continuous innovation in solutions that improve biodiversity and reduce our impact on climate change with a focus on renewable energy, increased use of environmentally preferred materials and production methods and circular business models that design out waste and pollution, keep products in use and restore natural systems.

◦We have set goals focused on utilizing 100% renewable energy in our own operations globally, reducing waste in our corporate and fulfillment centers and minimizing water use across our company and supply chain. We also have greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions reduction targets for Scope 1, 2, 3 and Scope 3 Forest, Land and Agriculture that have been validated by Science Based Targets initiative.

•Uplift Our Communities:

◦We aim to empower the communities where our employees live and work, and provide the resources and capacity needed to support supply chain partners in the regions where we operate.

◦We have set goals focused on volunteer service hours completed by our employees around the world, financial and product donations to nonprofit organizations globally, and ensuring people working in the factories crafting our products will have access to empowerment programs during the workday.

•Create Products with Care:

◦We aim to increase the use of innovative materials and focus on production methods that design out waste and pollution, keep products in use and restore natural systems.

◦We have set goals focused on tracing and mapping our raw materials, increasing the recycled content in our consumer packaging and targets to increase the uptake of sourcing environmentally preferred materials.

The Company’s ESG and corporate responsibility strategy, including oversight, management and identification of risks, is ultimately governed by the Board of Directors (the "Board") and overseen by an ESG Steering Committee, which is comprised of members of our executive leadership team, and driven by an ESG Task Force, comprised of senior leaders and cross-functional members from major business functions. The Board approves long-term sustainability goals, strategic moves or major plans of action and receives updates at least annually. Tapestry's Governance and Nominations Committee of the Board receives quarterly updates on sustainability strategy, including climate-related topics, progress towards the ESG goals and other ESG related initiatives.

The content on this website and the content in our corporate responsibility reports are not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K or in any other report or document we file with the SEC.

HUMAN CAPITAL

At Tapestry, being true to yourself is core to who we are. When each of us brings our individuality to our collective ambition, our creativity is unleashed. This global house of brands was built by unconventional entrepreneurs and unexpected solutions, so when we say we believe in dreams, we mean we believe in making them happen.

10

Where differences intersect, new thinking emerges. We cultivate a place for people who are both warm and rigorous, work that is both challenging and fun and a culture led by both head and heart. Most of all, we bring together the unique spirits of our people and our brands and give them a place to move their work and our industry forward. We believe that difference sparks brilliance, so we welcome people and ideas from everywhere to join us in stretching what’s possible.

Governance and Oversight

Our Board and its committees provide governance and oversight of the Company's strategy, including over issues of human capital management. The Board has designated the Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “HR Committee”) as the primary committee responsible for the Company’s human capital strategy, overseeing executive compensation programs, performance and talent development, succession planning, engagement and regular review of employee benefits and well-being strategies. Together with the Board, the HR Committee also provides oversight of the Company’s EI&D strategies. The full Board and the HR Committee receive quarterly updates on the Company’s talent development strategies and other applicable areas of human capital management.

Unlocking the power of our people is a key strategic focus area for the Company, supported by significant engagement from the Company’s senior leadership on talent development and human capital management, as reflected in the key programs and focus areas described below.

Employees

As of June 29, 2024, the Company employed approximately 18,600 employees globally. Of these employees, approximately 14,700 employees worked in retail locations, of which 6,100 were part-time employees. This total excludes seasonal and temporary employees that the Company employs, particularly during the second quarter due to the holiday season. The Company believes that its relations with its employees are good and has never encountered a strike or work stoppage.

Equity, Inclusion and Diversity

Our company name Tapestry, represents the diversity of our brands and the diversity of our people. We believe that having a diverse range of perspectives, backgrounds and experiences makes us more innovative and successful and brings us closer to our consumer. Our goal is to create a culture that is equitable, inclusive and diverse, where all of our employees, customers and stakeholders thrive.

Our EI&D strategy is grounded in our purpose and values and is a core element to unlocking the power of our people. To support these actions, we are guided by four interconnected principles:

•Talent: Attracting, retaining and growing top talent - making us an employer of choice in a rapidly evolving talent marketplace.

•Culture: Fostering a culture of inclusion and belonging, where people and ideas from everywhere are welcomed.

•Community: Nurturing the vibrancy of the communities in which we live and work to advance equity, opportunity and dignity for all.

•Marketplace: Embracing our responsibility in the marketplace as a global fashion company. We are committed to affecting positive change for our industry and deliver on our value proposition to stakeholders - consumers, investors and vendor partners.

Our global EI&D Champion Network supports and engages our professional community by creating an environment where all are welcomed. This network includes our six employee business resource groups, three task forces and regional inclusion councils to support and engage our employees.

Additionally, we believe educating our employees is crucial in achieving our EI&D goals. We have curated a catalogue of learning and development content, tools and resources, including bespoke skill-building programs to accommodate our dynamic employee population. Furthermore, the Company has focused on providing employees with resources to foster continuing education and conversation on EI&D through 'Tapestry UNSCRIPTED', which is an internal speaker series for our employees designed to bring our values to life. We feel hosting bold conversations about our values provides an opportunity for us to be inspired, discover ideas, and ignite personal passions.

11

Tapestry is committed to the support of historically excluded and marginalized groups through our corporate efforts. We are a member of the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion, the largest business coalition committed to advancing diversity and inclusion. Our focus on fostering an equitable work environment has led to continued recognition from Forbes on the list of “Best Employers for Diversity”, a top scoring company on the Disability:IN Disability Equality Index and the Human Rights Campaign’s list of “Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality”. In 2024, we were recognized by Civic 50 as one of the 50 Most Community-Minded Companies. Additionally, we have been certified as a "Great Place to Work" for 2024. The Company is dedicated to building a workforce with leadership teams better reflecting the customers we serve and the communities in which we operate. The Company monitors the representation of women and racial or ethnic minorities at different levels throughout the Company, and discloses this information on our website at www.tapestry.com/responsibility/our-people.

Total Rewards

Tapestry is dedicated to being a place where our employees love to work, where they feel recognized and rewarded for all that they do. Maintaining a competitive total compensation program helps us attract, motivate and retain the key talent we need to achieve outstanding business and financial results. To accomplish this goal, we strive to appropriately align our total compensation with the pay, benefits and rewards offered by companies that compete with us for talent in the marketplace.

Our Total Compensation Program includes cash pay, annual and long-term incentives, benefits and other special programs that our employees value. We strive to pay each employee fairly and competitively across our brands. Tapestry's primary compensation principle is to "pay for performance." Tapestry's practice is to pay a competitive base salary and to provide corporate employees with the opportunity to earn an annual bonus tied to Tapestry's and its brands' financial performance, and to provide store employees with the opportunity to earn sales incentives. Approximately 2,400 of our employees, including nearly all of our store managers, received an annual long-term equity award in 2024, which aligns employee interests with those of our stockholders, rewards employees for enhancing stockholder value and supports retention of key employees.

Our benefits package is designed to be competitive and comprehensive, which varies by location and jurisdiction. Our benefits, along with competitive pay, include medical benefits and paid wellness days for directly hired full-time and part-time employees. Additionally, we offer parental leave for directly hired full-time employees. The Company also offers retirement benefits for all employees. To support employees in achieving their career and financial goals, the Company also provides access to learning opportunities on personal finances, as well as physical and mental wellness, through various platforms based on the location of the employee.

Talent Acquisition and Development

Hiring talented employees is critically important to us, as we consider our employees around the world to be our greatest asset. Our recruitment and sourcing strategy focuses on tapping diverse sources to attract the best talent to our organization and then retaining them through our continued investments in resources that provide our employees with the tools for career advancement. Our internal opportunity program encourages employees to stretch themselves in their career development, aligning their capabilities with career interests and goals. We strive to provide a working environment where our people can grow and progress their careers within the Company.

We are committed to helping our employees develop the knowledge, skills and abilities needed for continued success and encourage employee development at all levels and every career stage. Our development programs enable individual and team success through targeted initiatives and resources, offering a wide-ranging curriculum focused on professional and leadership development for leaders, managers and individual contributors, including through our People Management Program, Emerging Leaders High-Potential Program, Leader Transition Acceleration Program and third-party learning platforms, in addition to other trainings and education facilitated through the Company for all employees.

As a company, performance management is critical to our ability to reach our goals and foster a culture of success. By having a dynamic, performance-driven culture, we can achieve greater results, maximize employee, manager and team performance and offer exciting development and career opportunities. As our focus extends beyond the performance of our employees to the performance of our Company as a whole, we have mechanisms in place to facilitate comprehensive upward feedback through robust cross-functional feedback tools and a cadence of regular pulse surveys that inform on how we can continue to strive for excellence in our work culture.

Well-being

At Tapestry, we are committed to providing a safe working environment for our people, as well as supporting our people in achieving and maintaining their health and well-being goals. Work-life integration is top of mind, and we provide resources and benefits to help achieve this balance. We provide our employees with supplemental resources to achieve wellness such as access to our Employee Assistance Program, regular employee programming and subscriptions to Headspace, a smartphone application dedicated to meditation and mindfulness. In fiscal year 2024, the Company established an Associate Relief Fund, which provides emergency assistance for events considered a disaster or hardship.

12

At Tapestry, we believe in encouraging and empowering our employees to take part in building a welcoming and inclusive community. We provide all employees with supplemental time-off to perform community service through nonprofits of their personal choice and through team and Company sponsored volunteering events. In our commitment to supporting our communities, we have three foundations which provide monetary support to nonprofit organizations across communities that we are a part of. Additionally, on an annual basis, our foundations match up to $10,000, per eligible employee, in donations to eligible non-profits in North America.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should consider carefully all of the information set forth or incorporated by reference in this document and, in particular, the following risk factors associated with the business of the Company and forward-looking information in this document. Please also see “Special Note on Forward-Looking Information” at the beginning of this report. The risks described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also have an adverse effect on us. If any of the risks below actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition could suffer.

Risks Related to Macroeconomic Conditions

Economic conditions, such as an economic recession, downturn, periods of inflation or uncertainty, could materially adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and consumer purchases of discretionary items.

Our results can be impacted by a number of macroeconomic factors, including but not limited to: consumer confidence and spending levels, tax rates, levels of unemployment, consumer credit availability, pandemics, natural disasters, raw material costs, fuel and energy costs, bank failures, market volatility, global factory production, supply chain operations, commercial real estate market conditions, credit market conditions and the level of customer traffic in malls, shopping centers and online.

Many of our products can be considered discretionary items for consumers. Demand for our products, and consumer spending in the handbag, footwear and accessories categories generally is or may be significantly impacted by trends in consumer confidence, general economic and business conditions, high levels of unemployment, periods of inflation, health pandemics, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, the availability of consumer credit and taxation. Consumer purchases of discretionary items, such as the Company's products, tend to decline during recessionary periods or periods of sustained high unemployment when disposable income is lower.

Unfavorable economic conditions may also reduce consumers’ willingness and ability to travel to major cities and vacation destinations in which our stores are located. Our sensitivity to economic cycles and any related fluctuation in consumer demand may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

Risks Related to our Business and our Industry

We face risks associated with operating in international markets.

We operate on a global basis, with approximately 40.8% of our net sales coming from operations outside of United States for fiscal year 2024. While geographic diversity helps to reduce the Company’s exposure to risks in any one country, we are subject to risks associated with international operations, including, but not limited to:

•political or economic instability or changing macroeconomic conditions in our major markets, including the potential impact of (1) new policies that may be implemented by the U.S. or other jurisdictions, particularly with respect to tax and trade policies, (2) the outcome of several elections worldwide, inclusive of the 2024 U.S. Presidential, congressional, and state elections and policy shifts resulting from those elections, and (3) sanctions and related activities by the United States, European Union (“E.U.”) and others;

•public health crises, such as pandemics and epidemic diseases;

•changes to the U.S.'s participation in, withdrawal out of, renegotiation of certain international trade agreements or other major trade related issues, including the non-renewal of expiring favorable tariffs granted to developing countries, tariff quotas and retaliatory tariffs, trade sanctions, new or onerous trade restrictions, embargoes and other stringent government controls;

•changes in exchange rates for foreign currencies, which may adversely affect the retail prices of our products, result in decreased international consumer demand, or increase our supply costs in those markets, with a corresponding negative impact on our gross margin rates;

•compliance with laws relating to foreign operations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), the U.K. Bribery Act and other global anti-corruption laws, which in general concern the bribery of foreign public officials and other regulations and requirements;

•changes in tourist shopping patterns and consumer behavior, particularly that of the Chinese consumer;

•geopolitical instability (such as the uncertainty in U.S.-China relations);

•natural and other disasters;

•political, civil and social unrest; and

14

•changes in legal and regulatory requirements, including, but not limited to safeguard measures, anti-dumping duties, cargo restrictions to prevent terrorism, restrictions on the transfer of currency, climate change and other environmental legislation, product safety regulations or other charges or restrictions.

Our business is subject to the risks inherent in global sourcing activities.

As a Company engaged in sourcing on a global scale, we are subject to the risks inherent in such activities, including, but not limited to:

•continued disruptions or delays in shipments whether due to port congestion, logistics carrier disruption (including as a result of labor disputes), militant attacks on commercial shipping vessels in the Red Sea, other shipping capacity constraints or other factors, which has and may continue to result in significantly increased inbound freight costs and increased in-transit times;

•loss or disruption of key manufacturing or fulfillment sites or extended closure of such sites due to unexpected factors;

•imposition of additional duties, taxes and other charges or restrictions on imports or exports;

•unavailability, or significant fluctuations in the cost, of raw materials;

•compliance by us and our independent manufacturers and suppliers with labor laws and other foreign governmental regulations;

•increases in the cost of labor, fuel (including volatility in the price of oil), travel and transportation;

•compliance with our Global Business Integrity Program;

•compliance by our independent manufacturers and suppliers with our Supplier Code of Conduct, social auditing procedures and requirements and other applicable compliance policies;

•compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including U.S. laws regarding the identification and reporting on the use of “conflict minerals” sourced from the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the Company’s products, other laws and regulations regarding the sourcing of materials in the Company’s products, the FCPA, U.K. Bribery Act and other global anti-corruption laws, as applicable, and other U.S. and international regulations and requirements;

•regulation or prohibition of the transaction of business with specific individuals or entities and their affiliates or goods manufactured in certain regions by any government or regulatory authority in the jurisdictions where we conduct business, such as the listing of a person or entity as a Specially Designated National or Blocked Person by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control and Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (“UFLPA”);

•inability to engage new independent manufacturers that meet the Company’s cost-effective sourcing model;

•product quality issues;

•political unrest, protests and other civil disruption;

•public health crises, such as pandemic and epidemic diseases, and other unforeseen outbreaks;

•natural disasters or other extreme weather events, whether as a result of climate change or otherwise; and

•acts of war or terrorism and other external factors over which we have no control.

We are subject to labor laws governing relationships with employees, including minimum wage requirements, overtime, working conditions and citizenship requirements. Compliance with these laws may lead to increased costs and operational complexity and may increase our exposure to governmental investigations or litigation.

In addition, we require our independent manufacturers and suppliers to operate in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, as well as our Supplier Code of Conduct and other compliance policies under our Global Business Integrity Program; however, we do not control these manufacturers or suppliers or their labor, environmental or other business practices. Copies of our Global Business Integrity Program documents, including our Global Operating Principles, Anti-Corruption Policy and Supplier Code of Conduct are available through our website, www.tapestry.com. The violation of labor, environmental or other laws by an independent manufacturer or supplier, or divergence of an independent manufacturer’s or supplier’s labor practices from those generally accepted as ethical or appropriate in the U.S., could interrupt or otherwise disrupt the shipment of our products, harm our trademarks or damage our reputation. In addition, if there is negative publicity regarding the production methods of any of our suppliers or manufacturers, even if unfounded or not specific to our supply chain, our reputation and sales could be adversely affected, we could be subject to legal liability, or could cause us to contract with alternative suppliers or manufacturing sources. The occurrence of any of these events could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

15

Public health crises, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Widespread public health crises, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, have had, and could in the future have, a negative impact on our operations, cash flow and liquidity. Potential risks to our business include but are not limited to: (i) disruption of our supply chain; (ii) loss or disruption of key manufacturing or fulfillment sites; (iii) closures, operating restrictions and capacity restrictions at our stores and our ability to negotiate existing lease agreements; (iv) changes in consumer shopping behavior, including reduced discretionary spending; (v) costs associated with adhering to regulations and protecting the health and safety of our employees and customers, (vi) excess inventory leading to increased promotional activity, (vii) heightened competition for retail and fulfillment center employees, (viii) our ability access capital markets and to make payments on and refinance our debt obligations; and (ix) our ability to pay dividends or conduct stock repurchases.

A decline in the volume of traffic to our stores could have a negative impact on our net sales.

The success of our retail stores located within malls and shopping centers may be impacted by (i) changes in consumer shopping behavior and store closures; (ii) reduced travel resulting from economic conditions (including a recession or inflationary pressures); (iii) the location of the store within the mall or shopping center; (iv) surrounding tenants or vacancies; (v) increased competition in areas where malls or shopping centers are located; (vi) the amount spent on advertising and promotion to attract consumers to the mall; and (vii) a shift towards online shopping resulting in a decrease in store traffic. Declines in consumer traffic could have a negative impact on our net sales and could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, declines in traffic could result in store impairment charges if expected future cash flows of the related asset group do not exceed the carrying value.

The growth of our business depends on the successful execution of our growth strategies, including our global omni-channel expansion efforts and our ability to execute our digital and e-commerce priorities.

Our growth depends on the continued success of existing products, as well as the successful design, introduction of new products and maintaining an appropriate rationalization of our assortment. Our ability to create new products and to sustain existing products is affected by whether we can successfully anticipate and respond to consumer preferences and fashion trends. See “The success of our business depends on our ability to retain the value of our brands and to respond to changing fashion and retail trends in a timely manner.” The failure to develop and launch successful new products or to rationalize our assortment appropriately could hinder the growth of our business. Also, any delay in the development or launch of a new product could result in our company not being the first to bring product to market, which could compromise our competitive position.

Our success and growth also depends on the continued development of our omni-channel presence for each of our brands globally, leaning into global digital opportunities for each brand, along with continued bricks and mortar expansion in select international regions. With respect to international expansion, our brands may not be well-established or widely sold in some of these markets, and we may have limited experience operating directly or working with our partners there. In addition, some of these markets, either through bricks and mortar stores or digital channels, have different operational characteristics, including but not limited to employment and labor, privacy, transportation, logistics, real estate, environmental regulations and local reporting or legal requirements.

We aim to provide a seamless omni-channel experience to our customers regardless of whether they are shopping in stores or engaging with our brands through digital technology, such as computers, mobile phones, tablets or other devices. This requires investment in new technologies and reliance on third-party digital partners, over which we may have limited control. Additionally, our digital business is subject to numerous risks that could adversely impact our results, including (i) a diversion of sales from our brand stores or wholesale customers, (ii) difficulty in recreating the in-store experience through digital channels, (iii) liability for online content, (iv) changing dynamics within the digital marketing environment and our ability to effectively market to consumers, (v) intense competition from online retailers, and (vi) the ability to provide timely delivery of e-commerce purchases, which is dependent on the capacity and operations of our owned and third-party operated fulfillment facilities. See “Our business is subject to the risks inherent in global sourcing activities” for additional risks related to our fulfillment networks. If we are unable to effectively execute our e-commerce and digital strategies and provide reliable experiences for our customers across all business channels, our reputation and ability to compete with other brands could suffer, which could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Furthermore, consumer demand and behavior, as well as tastes and purchasing trends may differ in these countries, and as a result, sales of our product may not be successful, or the margins on those sales may not be in line with those we currently anticipate. Further, expanding in certain markets may have upfront investment costs that may not be accompanied by sufficient revenues to achieve typical or expected operational and financial performance and therefore may be dilutive to our brands in the short-term. We may also have to compete for talent in international regions as we expand our omni-channel presence.

16

Consequently, if our global omni-channel expansion plans are unsuccessful, or we are unable to retain and/or attract key personnel, our business, financial condition and results of operation could be materially adversely affected.

The successful implementation of the Company’s 2025 growth strategy, futurespeed, is key to the long-term success of our business.

The Company introduced its 2025 growth strategy, futurespeed, in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, which is designed to amplify and extend the competitive advantages of the brands, with a focus on four strategic priorities: (i) Building Lasting Customer Relationships; (ii) Fueling Fashion Innovation & Product Excellence; (iii) Delivering Compelling Omni-Channel Experiences; and (iv) Powering Global Growth.

The Company believes that its intentional focus positions Tapestry to drive sustainable, profitable growth to create value for its stakeholders over time. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to sustain such efforts in accordance with our plans, that such efforts will result in the intended or otherwise desirable outcomes or that such efforts, even if successfully sustained, will be effective in achieving long-term growth or increased profitability. Refer to Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for further information regarding futurespeed.

If our incorporation of the initiatives under futurespeed falls short, our business, financial condition and results of operation could be materially adversely affected.

Significant competition in our industry could adversely affect our business.

We face intense competition from many other brands in the product lines and markets that we participate, which include the Company's wholesale customers. Competition is based on a number of factors, including, without limitation, the following:

•our competitors may develop new products or product categories that are more popular with our customers;

•anticipating and responding in a timely fashion to changing consumer demands and shopping preferences, including the ever-increasing shift to digital brand engagement, social media communications, and online and cross-channel shopping;

•maintaining strong brand recognition, loyalty, and a reputation for quality, including through digital brand engagement and online and social media presence;

•recruiting and retaining key talent;

•developing and producing innovative, high-quality products in sizes, colors, and styles that appeal to a diverse group of consumers;

•competitively pricing our products and creating an acceptable value proposition for consumers, including price increases to mitigate inflationary pressures while simultaneously balancing the risk of lower consumer demand in response to any such price increases;

•providing strong and effective marketing support in several diverse demographic markets, including through digital and social media platforms in order to stay better connected to consumers;

•providing attractive, reliable, secure, and user-friendly digital commerce sites;

•sourcing sustainable raw materials at cost-effective prices;

•ensuring product availability and optimizing supply chain efficiencies with third-party suppliers and retailers;

•protecting our trademarks and design patents;

•adapting to changes in technology, including the successful utilization of data analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning; and

•the ability to withstand prolonged periods of adverse economic conditions or business disruptions.

A failure to compete effectively or to keep pace with rapidly changing consumer preferences and technology and product trends could adversely affect our growth and profitability.

The success of our business depends on our ability to retain the value of our brands and to respond to changing fashion and retail trends in a timely manner.

Each of our brands are unique and independent, while sharing a commitment to innovation and authenticity defined by distinctive products and differentiated customer experiences across business channels and geographies. Any misstep in product quality or design, executive leadership, customer service, marketing, unfavorable publicity or excessive product discounting could negatively affect the image of our brands with our customers. Furthermore, the product lines we have historically marketed and those that we plan to market in the future are becoming increasingly subject to rapidly changing fashion trends

17

and consumer preferences, including the increasing shift to digital brand engagement and social media communication. If we do not anticipate and respond promptly to changing customer preferences and fashion trends in the design, production, and styling of our products, as well as create compelling marketing campaigns that appeal to our customers, our sales and results of operations may be negatively impacted.

The shift towards digital engagement has become increasingly important, with increased use of social media platforms by our brand representatives, influencers and our employees. Actions taken by our partners on social media that do not show our brands in a manner consistent with our desired image or that are damaging to such partner’s reputation, whether or not through our brand social media platforms, could harm our brand reputation and materially impact our business.

Our success also depends in part on our and our executive leadership team's ability to execute on our plans and strategies. Even if our products, marketing campaigns and retail environments do meet changing customer preferences and/or stay ahead of changing fashion trends, our brand image could become tarnished or undesirable in the minds of our customers or target markets, which could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our success depends, in part, on attracting, developing and retaining qualified employees, including key personnel.

Our business and future success depends heavily on attracting, developing and retaining qualified employees, including our senior management team. Competition in our industry to attract and retain these employees is intense and is influenced by our ability to offer competitive compensation and benefits, employee morale, our reputation, recruitment by other employers, perceived internal opportunities, non-competition and non-solicitation agreements and macro unemployment rates.

We depend on the guidance of our senior management team and other key employees who have significant experience and expertise in our industry and our operations. There can be no assurance that these individuals will remain with us or that we will be able to identify and attract suitable successors for these individuals. The loss of one or more of our key personnel or the direct or indirect consequences of results thereof, or any negative public perception with respect to these individuals or the loss of these individuals, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We do not maintain key-person or similar life insurance policies on any of senior management team or other key personnel.

We must also attract, motivate and retain a sufficient number of qualified retail and fulfillment center employees. Historically, competition for talent in these positions has been intense and turnover is generally high. If we are unable to attract and retain such employees with the necessary skills and experience, we may not achieve our objectives and our results of operations could be adversely impacted.

Additionally, changes to our office environments, the adoption of new work models, and our requirements and/or expectations about when or how often certain employees work on-site or remotely may not meet the expectations of our employees. As businesses increasingly operate remotely, traditional geographic competition for talent may change in ways that we cannot presently predict. If our employment proposition is not perceived as favorable compared to other companies, it could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain our employees.

In order to consummate the Capri Acquisition (as defined below), we and Capri must obtain certain regulatory approvals and satisfy closing conditions, and if such approvals are not granted or are granted untimely and/or with conditions, and if closing conditions are not satisfied, consummation of the Capri Acquisition may be jeopardized or the anticipated benefits of the Capri Acquisition may not be realized.

On August 10, 2023, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among us, Capri and Sunrise Merger Sub, Inc. ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire any and all of Capri’s ordinary shares (other than (a) Capri’s ordinary shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the acquisition that are owned or held in treasury by us or by Capri or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries and (b) Capri’s ordinary shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the acquisition that are held by holders who have properly exercised dissenters’ rights in accordance with, and who have complied with, Section 179 of the BVI Business Companies Act, 2004 (as amended) of the British Virgin Islands) in cash at a purchase price of $57.00 per share, without interest, subject to any required tax (the "Capri Acquisition"). The consummation of the Capri Acquisition remains subject to the receipt of certain regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of certain closing conditions. Subject to limited exceptions, we or Capri may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Capri Acquisition is not consummated on or before August 10, 2024, subject to two extensions of up to three months each in certain circumstances, including to obtain required regulatory approvals.

On April 22, 2024, the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") filed a preliminary injunction action against Tapestry and Capri in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking to enjoin the consummation of the Capri Acquisition. The FTC’s action alleges that the Capri Acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act and that the Merger Agreement and the Capri Acquisition constitute unfair methods of competition in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act and should be enjoined.

18

There can be no assurance as to the outcome of litigation with the FTC or that we will receive regulatory approval from the FTC on a timely basis or at all, and there can be no assurance that if regulatory clearance is obtained, it will not be subject to the compliance of certain conditions or impose limitations, obligations or restrictions that could have the direct or indirect effect of delaying or preventing the completion of the Capri Acquisition, imposing additional material costs on or materially limiting our revenues following the Capri Acquisition or otherwise reducing the anticipated benefits of the Capri Acquisition, or resulting in the abandonment of the Capri Acquisition.

If the Capri Acquisition is not completed on a timely basis or at all, our ongoing business may be adversely affected as follows:

•we may experience negative reactions from the financial markets, including investors and rating agencies, and the price of our common stock could decline;

•we have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs, expenses and fees, in connection with the Capri Acquisition and the transactions contemplated by the Capri Acquisition, for which we may receive little or no benefit if the Capri Acquisition is not completed, including in connection with the issuance and mandatory redemption of $4.50 billion of Capri Acquisition USD Senior Notes and €1.50 billion of Capri Acquisition EUR Senior Notes (both as defined below) at 101% of par value if the Capri Acquisition is not completed by February 10, 2025 (or such later date mutually agreed between us and Capri);

•investor and consumer confidence in our business could decline, relationships with vendors, service providers, investors and other third parties may be adversely impacted, and we may be unable to retain key personnel;

•we may be subject to litigation, which could result in significant costs and expenses;

•management’s focus may be diverted from day-to-day business operations and pursuing other opportunities that could have been beneficial to us; and

•the anticipated benefits of the Capri Acquisition could be delayed or reduced.

Mergers, acquisitions and other strategic investments may not be successful in achieving intended benefits, cost savings and synergies and may disrupt current operations.

One component of our historical growth strategy has been acquisitions, and, consistent with our longer-term capital allocation priorities, our management team expects to maintain M&A flexibility and may from time to time evaluate and consider acquisitions or other strategic investments. These involve various inherent risks and as a result, the expected benefits, cost savings and synergies may not be realized.

The integration process of any newly acquired company, such as our proposed Capri Acquisition, may be complex, costly and time-consuming. The potential difficulties of integrating the operations of an acquired business and realizing our expectations for an acquisition, including the benefits that may be realized, include, among other things:

•failure of the business to perform as planned following the acquisition or achieve anticipated revenue, cash flow or profitability targets;

•delays, unexpected costs or difficulties in completing the acquisition or integration of acquired companies or assets, including as a result of regulatory challenges;

•higher than expected costs, lower than expected cost savings or synergies and/or a need to allocate resources to manage unexpected operating difficulties;

•difficulties assimilating the operations and personnel of acquired companies into our operations;

•diversion of the attention and resources of management or other disruptions to current operations;

•the impact on our or an acquired business’ internal controls and compliance with the requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

•changes in applicable laws and regulations or the application of new laws and regulations;

•changes in the combined business due to potential divestitures or other requirements imposed by antitrust regulators;

•failures or delays in receiving the necessary approvals by the relevant regulators and authorities;

•retaining key customers, suppliers and employees;

•retaining and obtaining required regulatory approvals, licenses and permits;

•operating risks inherent in the acquired business and our business;

19

•lower than anticipated demand for product offerings by us or our licensees;

•assumption of liabilities not identified in due diligence; and

•other unanticipated issues, expenses and liabilities.

Our failure to successfully complete the integration of any acquired business, including as a result of regulatory challenges, and any adverse consequences associated with future acquisition activities, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Even if the integration of any acquired business is successfully completed, the full expected benefits and synergies of the acquisition may not be realized. Additional unanticipated costs, which could be material, may also be incurred in the integration of our business and the acquired business. Additionally, the full benefits of an acquisition may not be realized if the combined business does not perform as expected or demand for the combined company’s services does not meet our expectations.

Completed acquisitions may result in additional goodwill and/or an increase in other intangible assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We are required annually, or as facts and circumstances exist, to assess goodwill and other intangible assets to determine if impairment has occurred. If the testing performed indicates that impairment has occurred, we are required to record a non-cash impairment charge for the difference between the carrying value of the goodwill or other intangible assets and the implied fair value of the goodwill or the fair value of other intangible assets in the period the determination is made. We cannot accurately predict the amount and timing of any potential future impairment of assets. Should the value of goodwill or other intangible assets become impaired, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our business may be materially impacted if our fulfillment centers face significant interruptions and operations.

We are dependent on a limited number of fulfillment centers. Our ability to meet the needs of our customers and our retail stores and e-commerce sites depends on the proper operation of these centers. If any of these centers were to shut down or otherwise become inoperable or inaccessible for any reason, including as a result of accidents, economic and weather conditions, natural disasters, pandemic diseases, labor shortages and other unforeseen events and circumstances, we could suffer a substantial loss of inventory and/or disruptions of deliveries to our retail and wholesale customers. Depending on the duration of these closures, our results may be materially impacted. While we have business continuity and contingency plans for our sourcing and fulfillment center sites, significant disruption of manufacturing or fulfillment for any of the above reasons could interrupt product supply, result in a substantial loss of inventory, increase our costs, disrupt deliveries to our customers and our retail stores, and, if not remedied in a timely manner, could have a material adverse impact on our business.

Because our fulfillment centers include automated and computer-controlled equipment, they are susceptible to risks including power interruptions, system failures, software viruses, configuration errors and security breaches. In North America we maintain fulfillment centers in Florida, Ohio and Nevada, operated by Tapestry. Our multi-brand Nevada fulfillment center began operations in May 2023.

Globally we utilize fulfillment centers in mainland China, the Netherlands, the U.K. and Spain, owned and operated by third parties, allowing us to better manage the logistics in these regions while reducing costs. We also utilize local fulfillment centers, through third-parties, in Japan, parts of Greater China, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Spain, the U.K., Canada, Australia, and Mexico. The warehousing of the Company’s merchandise, store replenishment and processing direct-to-customer orders is handled by these centers and a prolonged disruption in any center’s operation could materially adversely affect our business and operations.

In addition, if our fulfillment centers are not sized to meet the optimal capacity for our products or are not adequately staffed, utilized or operated, our profitability may be negatively impacted.

Our business may be subject to increased costs due to excess inventories and a decline in profitability as a result of increasing pressure on margins if we misjudge the demand for our products.

Our industry is subject to significant pricing pressure caused by many factors, including intense competition and a highly promotional environment, fragmentation in the retail industry, pressure from retailers to reduce the costs of products, and changes in consumer spending patterns. If we misjudge the market for our products or demand for our products are impacted by other factors, such as inflationary pressures, political instability or other macroeconomic events, we may be faced with significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for other products. We have in the past been, and may in the future be, forced to rely on donation, markdowns, promotional sales or other write-offs, to dispose of excess, slow-moving inventory, which may negatively impact our gross margin, overall profitability and efficacy of our brands.

Increases in our costs, such as raw materials, labor or freight could negatively impact our gross margin. Our costs for raw materials are affected by, among other things, weather, customer demand, speculation on the commodities market, the relative valuations and fluctuations of the currencies of producer versus customer countries and other factors that are generally unpredictable and beyond our control. Any of these factors may be exacerbated by global climate change. In addition, the remaining impacts of the pandemic, political instability, trade relations, sanctions, price inflationary pressure, or other

20

geopolitical or economic conditions could cause raw material costs to increase and have an adverse effect on our future margins. Labor costs at many of our manufacturers have been increasing significantly and, as the middle class in developing countries continues to grow, it is unlikely that such cost pressure will abate. Furthermore, the cost of transportation has fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate significantly if oil prices continue to rise. We may not be able to offset such increases in raw materials, labor or transportation costs through pricing measures or other means.

As we outsource functions, we will become more dependent on the third parties performing these functions.

As part of our long-term strategy, we look for opportunities to cost effectively enhance capability of business services. While we believe we conduct appropriate due diligence before entering into agreements with these third parties, the failure of any of these third parties to provide the expected services, provide them on a timely basis or to provide them at the prices we expect could disrupt or harm our business. We also cannot guarantee that these third parties will not experience a personal data or security breach in the future, which could have a material impact on our operations. Any significant interruption in the operations of these service providers, including as a result of changes in social, political, and economic conditions, including those resulting from military conflicts or other hostilities, that could result in the disruption of trade from the countries in which our manufacturers or suppliers are located, over which we have no control, could also have an adverse effect on our business. Furthermore, we may be unable to provide these services or implement substitute arrangements on a timely and cost-effective basis on terms favorable to us.

Our wholesale business could suffer as a result of consolidations, liquidations, restructurings and other ownership changes in the wholesale industry.

Our wholesale business comprised approximately 12% of total net sales for fiscal 2024. The retail industry, including wholesale customers, has experienced financial difficulty leading to consolidations, reorganizations, restructuring, bankruptcies and ownership changes. This may continue and could further decrease the number of, or concentrate the ownership of, wholesale stores that carry our or our licensees’ products. Furthermore, a decision by the controlling owner of a group of stores or any other significant customer, whether motivated by competitive conditions, financial difficulties or otherwise, to decrease or eliminate the amount of merchandise purchased from us or our licensing partners could result in an adverse effect on the sales and profitability within this business channel.

Additionally, certain of our wholesale customers, particularly those located in the U.S., have in the past been highly promotional and have marked down their merchandise and may do so again in the future, which could impact our brands or could affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Our operating results are subject to seasonal and quarterly fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock.

The Company's results are typically affected by seasonal trends. We have historically realized, and expect to continue to realize, higher sales and operating income in the second quarter of our fiscal year. Business underperformance in the Company's second fiscal quarter would have a material adverse effect on its full year operating results and result in higher inventories. In addition, fluctuations in net sales, operating income and operating cash flows of the Company in any fiscal quarter may be affected by the timing of wholesale shipments and other events affecting retail sales, including adverse weather conditions or other macroeconomic events.

We rely on our licensing partners to preserve the value of our licenses and the failure to maintain such partners could harm our business.

Our brands currently have multi-year agreements with licensing partners for certain products. In the future, we may enter into additional licensing arrangements. The risks associated with our own products also apply to our licensed products, as do unique risks stemming from problems that our licensing partners may experience, including risks associated with each licensing partner’s ability to obtain capital, manage its labor relations, maintain relationships with its suppliers, manage its credit and bankruptcy risks, and maintain customer relationships. While we maintain significant control over the products produced for us by our licensing partners, any of the foregoing risks, or the inability of any of our licensing partners to execute on the expected design and quality of the licensed products or otherwise exercise operational and financial control over its business, may result in loss of revenue and competitive harm to our operations in the licensed product categories. Further, while we believe that we could replace our existing licensing partners if required, any delay in doing so could adversely affect our revenues and harm our business.

We are subject to risks associated with leasing retail space subject to non-cancelable leases. We may be unable to renew leases at the end of their terms. If we close a leased retail space, we remain obligated under the applicable lease.

We do not own any of our retail store locations. The majority of our stores are under non-cancelable, multi-year leases, often with renewal options. We believe that the majority of the leases we enter into in the future will likely be non-cancelable. Generally, our leases are “net” leases, which require us to pay our proportionate share of the cost of insurance, taxes,

21

maintenance and utilities. We generally cannot cancel these leases at our option. In certain cases, as we have done in the past, we may determine that it is no longer economical to operate a retail store subject to a lease or we may seek to generally downsize, consolidate, reposition, relocate or close some of our real estate locations. In such cases, we may be required to negotiate a lease exit with the applicable landlord or remain obligated under the applicable lease for, among other things, payment of the base rent for the balance of the lease term. In some instances, we may be unable to close an underperforming retail store due to continuous operation clauses in our lease agreements. In addition, as each of our leases expire, we may be unable to negotiate renewals, either on commercially acceptable terms or at all, which could cause us to close retail stores in desirable locations. Our inability to secure desirable retail space or favorable lease terms could impact our ability to grow. Likewise, our obligation to continue making lease payments in respect of leases for closed retail spaces could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, due to the uncertain economic environment, it may be difficult to determine the fair market value of real estate properties when we are deciding whether to enter into leases or renew expiring leases. This may impact our ability to manage the profitability of our store locations, or cause impairments of our lease right of use assets if market values decline, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Risks Related to Information Security and Technology

Computer system disruption and cyber security threats, including a personal data or security breach, could damage our relationships with our customers, harm our reputation, expose us to litigation and adversely affect our business.

We depend on digital technologies for the successful operation of our business, including corporate email communications to and from employees, customers, stores and vendors, the design, manufacture and distribution of our finished goods, digital and local marketing and clienteling efforts, data analytics, collection, use and retention of customer data, employee, vendor and partner information, the processing of credit card transactions, online e-commerce activities and our interaction with the public in the social media space. Our company implemented a hybrid working model. Many of our corporate employees and independent contractors returned to offices several days a week but continued to work remotely the other days. Continued remote working has increased our dependence on digital technology. Despite the security measures we have in place, including those described in Item 1C “Cybersecurity”, the possibility of a successful cyber-attack on any one or all of these systems is a serious threat. The retail industry, in particular, has been the target of many cyber-attacks. As part of our business model, we collect, retain and transmit confidential information and personal data over public networks. In addition to our own databases, we use third-party service providers to store, process and transmit this information on our behalf. Although we contractually require these service providers to implement and use reasonable and adequate security measures and data protection, we cannot control third parties and cannot guarantee that a personal data or security breach will not occur in the future either at their location or within their systems. We also store all designs, goods specifications, projected sales and distribution plans for our finished products digitally. We have enterprise class and industry comparable security measures in place to protect both our physical facilities and digital systems from attacks. Despite these efforts, however, we may be vulnerable to targeted or random cyber-attacks, personal data or security breaches, acts of vandalism, computer malware, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human errors, or other similar events. Further, like other companies in the retail industry, during the ordinary course of business, we and our vendors have in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience, cyber-attacks of varying degrees and types, including phishing and other attempts to breach or gain unauthorized access to our systems. To date, these attacks have not had a material impact on our operations, but we cannot provide assurance that cyber-attacks will not have a material impact in the future.

Awareness and sensitivity to personal data breaches and cyber security threats by consumers, employees and lawmakers is at an all-time high. Any misappropriation or unauthorized access to confidential or personal information gathered, stored or used by us, be it intentional or accidental, could have a material impact on the operation of our business, including severely damaging our reputation and our relationships with our customers, employees, vendors and investors. We have been incurring and expect that we will continue to incur significant costs implementing additional security measures to protect against new or enhanced data security or privacy threats, or to comply with current and new international, federal and state laws governing the unauthorized disclosure, access to, loss, alteration or exfiltration of confidential and personal information which are continuously being enacted and proposed such as the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") in the E.U. the UK GDPR, the American Privacy Rights Act (bill), the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act ("CPRA"), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act ("VCDPA"), the Colorado Privacy Act ("CPA"), the Utah Consumer Privacy Act ("UCPA"), the Connecticut Data Privacy Act ("CTDPA"), the Montana Consumer Data Privacy Act ("MCDPA"), the Washington My Health My Data Act ("WMHMDA"), the Florida Digital Bill of Rights ("FDBR"), the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act ("TDPSA") and other comprehensive and sectoral state privacy laws in the U.S., as well as increased cyber security and privacy protection costs such as organizational changes, deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, training employees and contractors, engaging outside counsel, third-party experts and consultants. We may also experience loss of revenues resulting from unauthorized use of proprietary information including our intellectual property. Lastly, we could face sizable fines, significant breach containment and notification costs to supervisory authorities

22

and the affected data subjects, and increased litigation and customer claims, as a result of cyber security or personal data breaches. While we carry cyber liability insurance, such insurance may not cover us with respect to any or all claims or costs associated with such a breach.

In addition, we have e-commerce sites in certain countries throughout the world, including the U.S., Canada, Japan, South Korea, Greater China, Europe, Middle East, Australia and Southeast Asia and have plans for additional e-commerce sites in other parts of the world. Additionally, Tapestry has informational websites in various countries. Given the robust nature of our e-commerce presence and digital strategy, it is imperative that we and our e-commerce partners maintain uninterrupted operation of our: (i) computer hardware, (ii) software systems, (iii) customer databases and (iv) ability to email or otherwise keep in contact with our current and potential customers. Despite our preventative efforts, our systems are vulnerable from time-to-time to damage, disruption or interruption from, among other things, physical damage, natural disasters, inadequate system capacity, system issues, security and personal data breaches, email blocking lists, computer malware or power outages. Any material disruptions in our e-commerce presence or information technology systems and applications could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A delay, disruption in, failure of, or inability to upgrade our information technology systems precisely and efficiently could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations and cash flow.

We rely heavily on various information and other business systems, including data analytics and machine learning, to manage our operations, including management of our supply chain, point-of-sale processing in our brands’ stores, our online businesses associated with each brand and various other processes and metrics. We are continually evaluating and implementing upgrades and changes to our systems. In addition, from time to time, we implement new systems.

Implementing new systems and upgrading existing systems and data analytics models carries substantial risk, including failure to operate as designed, failure to properly integrate with other systems, failure to accurately capture or report data or metrics, potential loss of confidential and personal information, cost overruns, implementation delays and disruption of operations. Furthermore, failure of our computer systems due to inadequate system capacity, computer viruses, human error, changes in programming, security and personal data breaches, system upgrades or migration of these services, as well as employee, vendor and consumer privacy concerns and new privacy and security laws and global government regulations, individually or in accumulation, could have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations and cash flow.

Risks Related to our Indebtedness

We have incurred a substantial amount of indebtedness, which could restrict our ability to engage in additional transactions or incur additional indebtedness.

As of June 29, 2024, our consolidated debt was approximately $7.24 billion. In order to consummate the Capri Acquisition, we issued approximately $6.10 billion of Capri Acquisition Senior Notes (as defined below) in November 2023 and expect to incur up to an additional $1.40 billion of indebtedness under the Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities (as defined below) at closing. We also expect to assume certain of Capri’s indebtedness outstanding at closing. This substantial level of indebtedness could have important consequences to our business including making it more difficult to satisfy our debt obligations, increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate and restricting us from pursuing certain business opportunities.

In addition, the terms of our $2.00 billion Revolving Credit Facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") contain certain affirmative and negative covenants, including limits on our ability to incur debt, grant liens, engage in mergers and dispose of assets, make certain investments, engage in certain transactions with its affiliates and make certain dividends and other distributions. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a maximum net leverage ratio of 4:00 to 1:00, which, upon the consummation of the Capri Acquisition, increases to (i) 4.75 to 1.00 from and including the closing date of the Capri Acquisition to but excluding June 28, 2025, (ii) 4.50 to 1.00 from and including June 28, 2025 to but excluding June 27, 2026, and (iii) 4.00 to 1.00 from and including June 27, 2026 and thereafter.

We have also entered into the $1.40 billion Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities, comprised of (i) the Tranche A term loan commitments, in an aggregate amount of $1.05 billion and which mature three years after the date on which the Capri Acquisition is consummated, and (ii) the Tranche B term loan commitments, in an aggregate amount of $350 million and which mature five years after the date on which the Capri Acquisition is consummated. The Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities currently remain unfunded. The Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities include the same affirmative and negative covenants as our Revolving Credit Facility and requires compliance with the same maximum net leverage ratio from and after consummation of the Capri Acquisition. Refer to Note 12, "Debt", for a summary of these terms and additional information on the terms of our Revolving Credit Facility, Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities and outstanding senior notes, including the Capri Acquisition Senior Notes.

23

The consequences and limitations under our Revolving Credit Facility, our Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities and our other outstanding indebtedness could impede our ability to engage in future business opportunities or strategic acquisitions. In addition, a prolonged disruption in our business may impact our ability to satisfy the leverage ratio covenant under our Revolving Credit Facility and, once the Capri Acquisition has been consummated, our Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities. Non-compliance with these terms would constitute an event of default under our credit facilities, which may result in acceleration of payment to the lenders. In the event of an acceleration of payment to the lenders, this would result in a cross default of the Company’s senior notes (including the Capri Acquisition Senior Notes), causing the Company’s outstanding borrowings to also become due and payable on demand.

The amount of cash required to service our increased indebtedness is greater than the amount of cash flows required prior to the announcement of the Capri Acquisition. Our ability to generate cash flows from our operations is, to a certain extent, subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures, or to sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. These alternative measures may not be successful and may not permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations. In the absence of such operating results and resources, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations.

As a result of having operations outside of the U.S., we are also exposed to market risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Substantial changes in foreign currency exchange rates could cause our sales and profitability to be negatively impacted.

Risks Related to Environmental, Social, and Governance Issues

The risks associated with climate change and other environmental impacts and increased focus by stakeholders on climate change, could negatively affect our business and operations.

Our business is susceptible to risks associated with climate change, including through disruption to our supply chain, potentially impacting the production and distribution of our products including availability and pricing of raw materials, as well as shipping disruptions and/or higher freight costs. Climate change can lead to physical and transition risks impacting our business. The physical risks result from climatic events, such as wildfires, storms and floods, whereas transition risks result from policy action taken to transition the economy off of fossil fuels. Increased frequency and/or intensity of extreme weather events (such as storms and floods) due to climate change could also lead to more frequent store and fulfillment center closures, adversely impacting retail traffic and/or consumer's disposable income levels or spending habits on discretionary items, or otherwise disrupt business operations in the communities in which we operate, any of which could result in lost sales or higher costs.

There is also increased focus from our stakeholders, including consumers, employees and investors, on climate change issues. Many countries in which we and our suppliers operate have begun to enact new legislation and regulations in an attempt to mitigate the potential impacts of climate change, which could result in higher sourcing, operational and compliance-related costs for the Company. Such proposed measures include expanded disclosure requirements regarding GHG emissions and other climate-related information, as well as independent auditors providing some level of attestation to the accuracy of such disclosures. Inconsistency of legislation and regulations among jurisdictions may also affect our compliance costs with such laws and regulations. An assessment of the potential impact of future climate change legislation, regulations or industry standards, as well as any international treaties and accords, will be fraught with uncertainty given the wide scope of potential regulatory change in the countries in which we operate. Any failure on our part to comply with such climate change-related regulations could lead to adverse consumer actions and/or investment decisions by investors, as well as expose us to legal risk.

Increased scrutiny from investors and others regarding our ESG initiatives, including matters of significance relating to sustainability, could result in additional costs or risks and adversely impact our reputation.

Stakeholders, including consumers, employees and investors, have increasingly focused on corporate responsibility practices of companies. Although we have announced our ESG strategy and related goals, there can be no assurance that our stakeholders will agree with our strategy or that we will be successful in achieving our goals. Failure to implement our strategy or achieve our goals on a timely basis, or at all, could damage our reputation, causing our investors or consumers to lose confidence in our Company and brands, and negatively impact our operations. In addition, our brand is susceptible to risks associated with changing consumer attitudes regarding social and political issues and consumer perceptions of our position on these issues.

Any ESG report that we publish or other sustainability disclosure we make may include our policies and practices on a variety of social and ethical matters, including corporate governance, environmental compliance, employee health and safety practices, human capital management, product quality, supply chain management and workforce inclusion and diversity. It is possible that stakeholders may not be satisfied with our ESG practices or the speed of our adoption of these practices. We could

24

also incur additional costs and require additional resources to monitor, report and comply with various ESG practices and various legal, legislative and regulatory requirements. Also, our failure, or perceived failure, to meet the standards included in any sustainability disclosure could negatively impact our reputation, employee retention and the willingness of our customers and suppliers to do business with us.

In addition, many of the countries where we and our suppliers operate continue to enact legislation and regulatory rules that address climate change and other sustainability issues, including expanded disclosure requirements on GHG emissions and other climate related information. Consumers, trade associations, interested non-governmental organizations and other stakeholders have increased focus and emphasis on sustainable features of products and other sustainability topics, including traceability and transparency, sustainability claims and product labeling requirements, responsible sourcing and deforestation, the use of energy and water, and the recyclability or recoverability of packaging, product, and materials. The rules and regulations and governmental oversight continue to rapidly evolve with varying degrees of complexity and scope, many that include penalties for non-compliance. Any failure on our part to comply with sustainability related legislation, regulations and frameworks could lead to adverse consumer action, government enforcement action and private litigation. Our ability to comply with the evolution of consumer expectations, regulations and governmental standards and legal landscape can lead to increased risk, operational costs and management time and effort.

Risks Related to Global Economic Conditions and Legal and Regulatory Matters

We face risks associated with potential changes to international trade agreements and the imposition of additional duties on importing our products.

Most of our imported products are subject to duties, indirect taxes, quotas and non-tariff trade barriers that may limit the quantity of products that we may import into the U.S. and other countries or may impact the cost of such products. To maximize opportunities, we rely on free trade agreements and other supply chain initiatives and, as a result, we are subject to government regulations and restrictions with respect to our cross-border activity. For example, we have historically received benefits from duty-free imports on certain products from certain countries pursuant to the U.S. Generalized System of Preferences ("GSP") program. The GSP program expired on December 31, 2020, resulting in additional duties that have negatively impacting gross margin. Additionally, we are subject to government regulations relating to importation activities, including related to U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") enforcement actions. The imposition of taxes, duties and quotas, the withdrawal from or material modification to trade agreements, and/or if CBP detains shipments of our goods pursuant to the UFLPA, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Since fiscal 2019, the U.S. and China have both imposed tariffs on the importation of certain product categories into the respective country, with limited progress in negotiations to reduce or remove the tariffs. However, while the U.S. has participated in multi-national negotiations on trade agreements and duty rates, there continues to be a possibility of increases in tariffs on goods imported into the U.S. from other countries, which could in turn adversely affect the profitability for these products and have an adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations as a result.

Fluctuations in our tax obligations and effective tax rate may result in volatility of our financial results and stock price.

We are subject to income taxes in many jurisdictions. We record tax expense based on our estimates of taxable income and required reserves for uncertain tax positions in multiple tax jurisdictions. At any one time, multiple tax years are subject to audit by various taxing jurisdictions. The results of these audits and negotiations with taxing authorities may result in a settlement which differs from our original estimate. As a result, we expect that throughout the year there could be ongoing variability in our quarterly effective tax rates as events occur and exposures are evaluated. In addition, our effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be materially impacted by changes in the mix and level of earnings. Further, proposed tax changes that may be enacted in the future could impact our current or future tax structure and effective tax rates.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was signed into law by the Biden Administration, with tax provisions primarily focused on implementing a 15% CAMT on global adjusted financial statement income and a 1% excise tax on share repurchases. The CAMT was effective at the beginning of fiscal 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate. On December 12, 2022, the E.U. member states also reached an agreement to implement the OECD’s reform of international taxation known as GloBE, which broadly mirrors the Inflation Reduction Act by imposing a 15% global minimum tax on multinational companies. Based on the countries in which we do business that have enacted legislation effective January 1, 2025, we do not expect the impact of these changes to be material for fiscal 2025. A number of other countries are also implementing similar legislation with effective dates starting in 2026. As a result, we do expect a modest negative impact on the Company’s effective tax rate, however, this could change as other countries enact similar legislation and further guidance is released. We continue to closely monitor regulatory developments to assess potential impacts.

25

Our business is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Due to our global operations, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk with respect to our sales, profits, assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. In addition, certain of our subsidiaries transact in currencies other than their functional currency, including intercompany transactions, which results in foreign currency transaction gains or losses. If the U.S. dollar strengthens against these subsidiaries’ foreign currencies, the translation of their foreign currency denominated transactions may decrease consolidated net sales and profitability. Furthermore, majority of the Company's purchases and sales involving international parties, excluding international consumer sales, are denominated in U.S. dollars. In order to minimize the impact on earnings related to foreign currency rate movements, we hedge certain cross currency intercompany inventory transactions and foreign currency balance sheet exposures which includes the Company’s cross currency intercompany loan portfolio. We cannot ensure, however, that these hedges will fully offset the impact of foreign currency rate movements. Our continued international expansion will increase our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations.

We may be unable to protect our intellectual property and curb the sale of counterfeit merchandise, which can cause harm to our reputation and business.

We believe our trademarks, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property rights are extremely important to our success and our competitive position. We devote significant resources to the registration and protection of our trademarks and to anti-counterfeiting efforts worldwide. We pursue entities involved in the trafficking and sale of counterfeit merchandise through legal action or other appropriate measures. We cannot guarantee that the actions we have taken to curb counterfeiting and protect our intellectual property will be adequate to protect the brand and prevent counterfeiting in the future. Despite our efforts, our brands are still susceptible to counterfeiting. Such counterfeiting dilutes our brands and can cause harm to our reputation and business. Our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights are from time to time met with defenses and counterclaims attacking the validity and enforceability of our intellectual property rights. In the ordinary course of business, we become involved in trademark oppositions and cancellation actions. Our trademark applications may face objections from the trademark offices we seek to register them in and may not mature into registrations. Other parties may seek to invalidate our trademarks or assert violations of their trademarks or other intellectual property and seek to block our sales of certain products. Unplanned increases in legal and investigative fees and other costs associated with defending our intellectual property rights could result in higher operating expenses. Finally, many countries’ laws do not protect intellectual property rights to the same degree as U.S. laws.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock

If we are unable to pay quarterly dividends or conduct stock repurchases at intended levels, our reputation and stock price may be negatively impacted.

In fiscal 2024, the Company returned capital to its shareholders through a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per common share, for an annual dividend rate of $1.40 per share, or $321 million. In August 2023, the Company suspended its share repurchase activity in connection with the Merger Agreement with Capri. The dividend program and the stock repurchase program each require the use of a significant portion of our cash flow. Our ability to pay dividends and conduct stock repurchases will depend on our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future. This ability may be subject to certain economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. Our Board may, at its discretion, decrease or entirely discontinue the dividend program at any time. Any failure to pay dividends or conduct stock repurchases, or conduct either program at all or at expected levels, after we have announced our intention to do so may negatively impact our reputation, investor confidence in us and negatively impact our stock price.

Our stock price may periodically fluctuate based on the accuracy of our earnings guidance or other forward-looking statements regarding our financial performance, including our ability to return value to investors.

Our business and long-range planning process is designed to maximize our long-term strength, growth, and profitability, and not to achieve an earnings target in any particular fiscal quarter. We believe that this longer-term focus is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders. At the same time, however, we recognize that, when possible, it is helpful to provide investors with guidance as to our forecast of net sales, operating income, net interest expense, tax rate, earnings per diluted share and other financial metrics or projections. While we generally expect to provide updates to our financial guidance when we report our results each fiscal quarter, we do not have any responsibility to provide guidance going forward or to update any of our forward-looking statements at such times or otherwise. In addition, any longer-term guidance that we provide is based on goals that we believe, at the time guidance is given, are reasonably attainable for growth and performance over a number of years. However, such long-range targets are more difficult to predict than our current quarter and fiscal year expectations. If, or when, we announce actual results that differ from those that have been predicted by us, outside investment analysts or others, our stock price could be adversely affected. Investors who rely on these predictions when making investment decisions with respect to our securities do so at their own risk. We take no responsibility for any losses suffered as a result of such changes in our stock price.

26

We periodically return value to investors through payment of quarterly dividends and common stock repurchases. In August 2023, the Company suspended its share repurchase activity in connection with the Merger Agreement with Capri. The market price of our securities could be adversely affected if our cash dividend rate or common stock repurchase activity differs from investors’ expectations. Refer to “If we are unable to pay quarterly dividends or conduct stock repurchases at intended levels, our reputation and stock price may be negatively impacted.” for additional discussion of our quarterly dividend.

Certain provisions of the Company's charter, bylaws and Maryland law may delay or prevent an acquisition of the Company by a third-party.

The Company's charter, bylaws and Maryland law contain provisions that could make it more difficult for a third-party to acquire the Company without the consent of our Board. The Company's charter permits a majority of its entire Board, without stockholder approval, to amend the charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that the Company has the authority to issue. In addition, the Company's Board may classify or reclassify any unissued shares of common stock or preferred stock and may set the preferences, rights and other terms of the classified or reclassified shares without stockholder approval. Although the Company's Board has no intention to do so at the present time, it could establish a class or series of preferred stock that could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for the Company's common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of the Company's stockholders.

The Company's bylaws provide that nominations of persons for election to the Company's Board and the proposal of business to be considered at an annual meeting of stockholders may be made only in the notice of the meeting, by the Company's Board, by a stockholder who is a stockholder of record as of the record date set by the Company's Board for purposes of determining stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, at the time of the giving of the notice by the stockholder pursuant to the Company's bylaws and at the time of the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting in the election of each individual so nominated or on any such other business and has complied with the advance notice procedures of the Company's bylaws or by qualifying stockholders that satisfy the proxy access provisions of the Company’s bylaws.

Under Maryland law, business combinations, including mergers, consolidations, share exchanges or, in circumstances specified in the statute, asset transfers or issuances or reclassifications of equity securities, between the Company and any interested stockholder, generally defined as any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the Company’s common stock, or any affiliate of an interested stockholder are prohibited for a five-year period, beginning on the most recent date such person became an interested stockholder. After this period, a business combination must be approved by two super-majority stockholder votes, unless common stockholders receive a minimum price, as defined under Maryland law, for their shares in the form of cash or other consideration in the same form as previously paid by the interested stockholder for its shares. The statute permits various exemptions from its provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by our Board prior to the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder.

The Company’s charter provides that, except as may be provided by our Board in setting the terms of any class or series of preferred stock, any vacancy on our Board may be filled only by a majority of the remaining directors, even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum. The Company’s charter further provides that a director may be removed only by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast generally in the election of directors. This provision, when coupled with the exclusive power of our Board to fill vacant directorships, may preclude stockholders from removing incumbent directors except by a substantial affirmative vote and filling the vacancies created by such removal with their own nominees.

Our bylaws designate the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland as the sole and exclusive forum for certain actions, including derivative actions, which could limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers, other employees, or the Company's stockholders and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.

Unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of any duty owed by any director or officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or to the stockholders of the Company, (c) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer or other employee of the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the Maryland General Corporation Law, the charter or the bylaws of the Company or (d) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any director or officer or other employee of the Company that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland (or, if that Court does not have jurisdiction, the United States District court for the District of Maryland, Baltimore Division). This exclusive forum provision is intended to apply to claims arising under Maryland state law and would not apply to claims brought pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

27

Although we believe the exclusive forum provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Maryland law for the specified types of actions and proceedings, this provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers or other employees and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Risk Management and Strategy

The Company manages strategic, operational and external risks, including cybersecurity risk, through the Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) program which has direct involvement from the Board, the Audit Committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee"), and Senior Management. Our ERM program provides a framework whereby management conducts a comprehensive annual enterprise risk assessment to identify and prioritize the most critical risks facing the Company, as well as emerging risks, and the development and reporting of risk mitigation strategies. Through this process, we have identified cybersecurity as a risk management priority.

The Company has a comprehensive cybersecurity risk assessment program that systematically identifies, analyzes and evaluates potential threats and vulnerabilities that may impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Company's information systems and data. This program includes governance structure, risk identification, risk analysis, risk management, and risk communication and reporting.

On a periodic basis, the Company engages independent third-party subject matter experts to conduct a cybersecurity maturity assessment based on the National Institute of Standards Technology framework, focused on risk assessment, global payment card industry audits, and compliance audits to help identify gaps and improve existing processes. In addition, the Company has a cybersecurity risk program that includes policies and procedures around onboarding of third-parties, contractual agreement review, risk assessment and on-going monitoring of high-risk vendors.

The Company also has several tools and processes in place to actively prevent, detect and manage cybersecurity incidents. This includes:

•Vulnerability Management – continuous scanning of the technology environment to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.

•Attack Surface Management – actively monitor and prevent external attack attempts.

•Security Monitoring and Operations – collection and aggregation of security alerts that are reviewed, analyzed and managed by the security operations team.

•Threat Intelligence – gathering and analyzing information about current and emerging cyber threats.

•Incident Response – incorporating detection and recovery processes, defining roles and responsibilities across the Company, establishing communication protocols and escalation procedures, including performing tabletop exercises.

•Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plans – covering both technology and business areas globally with annual exercises to validate processes.

•Cybersecurity Awareness – educating employees and third-party service providers on best practices for protecting the Company from cyber threats, which includes providing annual security and privacy industry-specific training to employees as well as conducting period phishing simulations to test their awareness.

We are continuously enhancing our cybersecurity framework in response to the ongoing incidents and threats that we face.

Cybersecurity is a key component of the Company’s risk mitigation strategy. As such, a multi-year cybersecurity strategy and roadmap are developed and incorporated into Tapestry’s long range planning and capital allocation process.

During the three fiscal years presented within this Form 10-K, our results of operations and financial condition have not been materially affected by cybersecurity risks and incidents. For a detailed discussion of significant risk factors regarding cybersecurity threats, refer to Item 1A — "Risk Factors — Risks Related to Information Security and Technology.”

28

Governance

Our Board has active oversight of risk management, which includes cybersecurity. Several members of our Board have cybersecurity experience gained through direct responsibilities, oversight or other relevant education and experience. Our Board has delegated primary responsibility of cybersecurity risk to the Audit Committee.

The Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”) and Chief Information Officer ("CIO") provide quarterly updates to the Audit Committee on information security, privacy risk and compliance, with updates to the Board at least annually.

Our CISO manages the Company’s cybersecurity compliance program, including prevention, mitigation, detection and remediation of cybersecurity incidents. Our CISO, who reports directly into the CIO, has over 30 years of experience in information technology and cybersecurity and holds multiple industry certifications.

The Company has an Information Governance, Privacy & Security Committee responsible for management oversight of cybersecurity risk, which includes the CISO and key members of management and meets quarterly.

As part of our cyber incident response plan, our CISO is responsible escalating certain cybersecurity incidents to relevant senior management, along with several stakeholders, who then convene to evaluate the materiality of such incident using a list of quantitative and qualitative guidelines. In addition, outside advisors would be engaged as deemed necessary. The CEO, CFO, and Board are informed if the incident is deemed potentially material.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The following table sets forth the location, use and size of the Company's key fulfillment, corporate and product development facilities as of June 29, 2024. All of the properties are leased, with the leases expiring at various times through fiscal 2037, subject to renewal options.

The Company considers these properties to be in generally good condition and believes that its facilities are adequate for its operations and provide sufficient capacity to meet its anticipated requirements. Refer to Item 1. "Business," for further information.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is involved in various routine legal proceedings as both plaintiff and defendant incident to the ordinary course of its business, such as to protect Tapestry, Inc.'s intellectual property rights, litigation instituted by persons alleged to have been injured by advertising claims or upon premises within the Company’s control, contract disputes, insurance claims and litigation, including wage and hour litigation with present or former employees.

Although the Company's litigation can result in large monetary awards, such as when a civil jury is allowed to determine compensatory and/or punitive damages, the Company believes that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material effect on the Company's business or consolidated financial statements. There have been no material developments with respect to any previously reported proceedings.

However, as previously disclosed, on August 10, 2023, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement by and among the Company, Merger Sub and Capri, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into Capri (the “Merger”) with Capri surviving the Merger and continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Company’s proposed acquisition of Capri, we have been named as a defendant in legal proceedings by the FTC. On April 22, 2024, the FTC filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against us and Capri seeking to block the proposed acquisition of Capri, claiming that the proposed acquisition would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act and that the Merger Agreement and the Merger constitute unfair methods of competition in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act and should be enjoined. We believe the FTC’s claims are without merit, and we intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously.

Capri Holdings Limited Acquisition

On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement by and among the Company, Sunrise Merger Sub, Inc., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Tapestry, and Capri for $57.00 per share in cash for a total enterprise value of approximately $8.50 billion. The Capri Acquisition, once completed, will bring together six highly complementary brands with global reach, powered by the Company’s data-rich customer engagement platform and diversified, direct-to-consumer operating model. The transaction is expected to close during calendar year 2024. In order to finance the Capri Acquisition, on November 27, 2023, the Company issued $4.50 billion of U.S. dollar-denominated senior unsecured notes (the "Capri Acquisition USD Senior Notes") and €1.50 billion of Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes (the "Capri Acquisition EUR Senior Notes" and, together with the Capri Acquisition USD Senior Notes, the "Capri Acquisition Senior Notes") which, together with the $1.40 billion of delayed draw unsecured term loan facilities (the "Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities") executed on August 30, 2023, complete the expected financing for the Capri Acquisition. The Company has received regulatory approval from all applicable jurisdictions except for the United States. On April 22, 2024, the FTC filed a complaint against the Company and Capri in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking to enjoin the consummation of the Capri Acquisition. The FTC’s complaint alleges that the Capri Acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act and that the Merger Agreement and the Capri Acquisition constitute unfair methods of competition in violation of Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act and should be enjoined. The Company believes the FTC’s claims are without merit and intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously.Refer to Note 5, "Acquisitions" for further information.

2025 Growth Strategy

In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company introduced the 2025 growth strategy (“futurespeed”), designed to amplify and extend the competitive advantages of its brands, with a focus on four strategic priorities:

•Building Lasting Customer Relationships: The Company’s brands aim to leverage Tapestry’s transformed business model to drive customer lifetime value through a combination of increased customer acquisition, retention and reactivation.

•Fueling Fashion Innovation & Product Excellence: The Company aims to drive sustained growth in core handbags and small leathergoods, while accelerating gains in footwear and lifestyle products.

•Delivering Compelling Omni-Channel Experiences: The Company aims to extend its omni-channel leadership to meet the customer wherever they shop, delivering growth online and in stores.

•Powering Global Growth: The Company aims to support balanced growth across regions, prioritizing North America and China, its largest markets, while capitalizing on opportunities in under-penetrated geographies such as Southeast Asia and Europe.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND INDUSTRY TRENDS

The environment in which we operate is subject to a number of different factors driving global consumer spending. Consumer preferences, macroeconomic conditions, foreign currency fluctuations and geopolitical events continue to impact overall levels of consumer travel and spending on discretionary items, with inconsistent patterns across business channels and geographies.

We will continue to monitor the below trends and evaluate and adjust our operating strategies and cost management opportunities to mitigate the related impact on our results of operations, while remaining focused on the long-term growth of our business and protecting the value of our brands.

For a detailed discussion of significant risk factors that have the potential to cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations, see Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors".

Current Macroeconomic Conditions and Outlook

During fiscal 2024, the macroeconomic environment remained challenging and volatile. Several organizations that monitor the world’s economy, including the International Monetary Fund, continue to forecast growth in the global economy, and remains unchanged since the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The forecast is below the historical growth average and is reflective of the current volatile environment, including tighter monetary and fiscal policies which have started to moderate inflation, financial market volatility and the negative economic impacts of geopolitical instability in certain regions of the world.

In fiscal 2024, freight costs have continued to moderate as compared to prior year. As a result, during fiscal 2024, the Company incurred lower freight expense of $84.2 million when compared to the prior year, positively impacting gross margin by approximately 130 basis points.

In fiscal 2024, the U.S. Dollar has continued to fluctuate as compared to foreign currencies in regions where we conduct our business. During fiscal 2024, this trend has resulted in impacts to our business including, but not limited to, decreased Net

34

sales of $77.3 million, a positive impact to gross margin of approximately 30 basis points which benefited from the Company's hedging activity and approximately 10 basis point positive impact to operating margin.

Currency volatility, political instability and potential changes to trade agreements or duty rates may also contribute to a worsening of the macroeconomic environment or adversely impact our business. Since fiscal 2019, the U.S. and China have both imposed tariffs on the importation of certain product categories into the respective country, with limited progress in negotiations to reduce or remove the tariffs.

In response to the current environment, the Company continues to take strategic actions considering near-term exigencies and remains committed to maintaining the health of the brands and business.

Geopolitical Disruptions to Supply Chain

During fiscal 2024, certain geopolitical events have impacted trade routes in the Red Sea which have modestly increased inventory in-transit times and costs. The Company has taken actions to minimize any potential disruptions and, at this time, does not anticipate material impact to our business or operating results. We will continue to closely monitor the situation.

Covid-19 Pandemic

The Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in varying degrees of business disruption for the Company since it began in fiscal 2020 and has impacted all regions around the world, resulting in restrictions and shutdowns implemented by national, state and local authorities. Such disruptions continued during the first half of fiscal 2023, and the Company's results in Greater China were adversely impacted as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Starting in December 2022, certain government restrictions were lifted in the region and business trends have improved. During fiscal 2024, the Covid-19 pandemic did not materially impact our business or operating results. We continue to monitor the latest developments regarding the Covid-19 pandemic and potential impacts on our business, operating results and outlook. Refer to Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for additional discussion regarding risks to our business associated with the Covid-19 pandemic.

Tax Legislation

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was signed into law by the Biden Administration, with tax provisions primarily focused on implementing a 15% CAMT on global adjusted financial statement income and a 1% excise tax on share repurchases. The CAMT was effective at the beginning of fiscal 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate.

On December 12, 2022, the E.U. member states also reached an agreement to implement the OECD’s reform of international taxation known as GloBE, which broadly mirrors the Inflation Reduction Act by imposing a 15% global minimum tax on multinational companies. Based on the countries in which we do business that have enacted legislation effective January 1, 2025, we do not expect the impact of these changes to be material for fiscal 2025. A number of other countries are also implementing similar legislation with effective dates starting in 2026. As a result, we do expect a modest negative impact on the Company’s effective tax rate, however, this could change as other countries enact similar legislation and further guidance is released. We continue to closely monitor regulatory developments to assess potential impacts.

•Coach Net Sales increased 2.7% or $134.9 million to $5.10 billion in fiscal 2024. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, net sales increased 4.1% or $202.4 million. This increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase of $110.7 million in DTC sales driven by an increase in store and to a lesser extent, e-commerce sales. The increase in net sales was also attributed to an $81.4 million increase in wholesale sales primarily driven by international, which included growth in the digital wholesale channel.

Gross profit increased 3.7% or $174.6 million to $4.89 billion in fiscal 2024 from $4.71 billion in fiscal 2023. Gross margin in fiscal 2024 increased 250 basis points to 73.3% as compared to 70.8% in fiscal 2023. This increase in Gross margin was primarily attributed to lower freight costs, net pricing improvements and favorable currency impacts. Refer to "Current Macroeconomic Conditions and Outlook" herein, for further information.

The Company includes inbound product-related transportation costs from our service providers within Cost of sales. The Company, similar to some companies, includes certain transportation-related costs due to our distribution network in SG&A expenses rather than in Cost of sales; for this reason, our gross margins may not be comparable to that of entities that include all costs related to their distribution network in Cost of sales.

Excluding items affecting comparability of 109.9 million in fiscal 2024, SG&A expenses increased 2.7% or $97.0 million to $3.64 billion from $3.54 billion in fiscal 2023. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 140 basis points to 54.5% as compared to 53.1% in fiscal 2023. This increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to higher marketing spend, higher compensation costs, increased occupancy costs and higher professional fees, partially offset by a decrease in distribution costs.

(1)In fiscal 2024, Corporate incurred charges affecting comparability of $109.9 million. Excluding those items affecting comparability, SG&A expenses increased 10.0% or $46.7 million to $512.5 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to $465.8 million in fiscal 2023.

Operating income decreased $32.3 million to $1.14 billion during fiscal 2024 as compared to $1.17 billion in fiscal 2023. Operating margin was 17.1% in fiscal 2024 as compared to 17.6% in fiscal 2023. Excluding items affecting comparability of $109.9 million in fiscal 2024, operating income increased $77.6 million to $1.25 billion from $1.17 billion in fiscal 2023; and operating margin increased 110 basis points to 18.7% in fiscal 2024 as compared to 17.6% in fiscal 2023. This increase in operating margin was primarily attributed to an increase of 250 basis points in gross margin partially offset by a 140 basis points increase in SG&A as a percentage of sales.

•Coach Operating Income increased $121.2 million to $1.65 billion in fiscal 2024, resulting in an operating margin increase of 160 basis points to 32.4%, as compared to $1.53 billion and 30.8%, respectively in fiscal 2023. This increase in operating margin was primarily attributed to:

◦Gross Margin, increased 260 basis points mainly due to lower freight costs, net pricing improvements and favorable currency impacts;

◦SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, increased 100 basis points mainly due to higher marketing spend and higher compensation costs, partially offset by a decrease in distribution costs.

•Kate Spade Operating Income increased $17.6 million to $132.6 million in fiscal 2024, resulting in an operating margin increase of 180 basis points to 9.9%, as compared to 115.0 million and 8.1%, respectively in fiscal 2023. This increase in operating margin was primarily attributed to:

39

◦Gross Margin, increased 180 basis points mainly due to lower freight costs and net pricing improvements;

◦SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, remained even to prior year mainly driven by increased occupancy costs and higher information technology costs, partially offset by lower marketing spend, depreciation and lower compensation costs.

•Stuart Weitzman Operating Loss increased $14.5 million to a loss of $21.2 million in fiscal 2024, resulting in an operating margin decrease of 640 basis points to (8.8)%, as compared to an operating loss of $6.7 million and operating margin of (2.4)% in fiscal 2023.

•Corporate Operating Expenses increased (33.6)% or $156.6 million to $622.4 million in fiscal 2024. Excluding items affecting comparability, Corporate operating expenses increased $46.7 million to $512.5 million from $465.8 million in fiscal 2023. This increase in operating expenses was attributed to an increase in SG&A expenses primarily due to increased compensation costs, higher professional fees and increased occupancy costs.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net, increased $97.4 million to $125.0 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to $27.6 million in fiscal 2023. Excluding items affecting compatibility, Interest expense, net, decreased $19.3 million to $8.3 million from $27.6 million in fiscal 2023. This decrease in Interest expense, net, was mainly due to higher interest income partially offset by higher interest on the term loan due 2027 (the "Term Loan due 2027").

Other Expense (Income)

Other expense increased $1.5 million to $3.2 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to an expense of $1.7 million in fiscal 2023. This increase in other expense was related to an increase in foreign exchange losses.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 19.4% in fiscal 2024 as compared to 18.1% in fiscal 2023. Excluding items affecting comparability, the effective tax rate was 19.2% in fiscal 2024 as compared to 18.1% in fiscal 2023. The increase in effective tax rate was primarily driven by discrete items recognized in the period partially offset by geographic mix of earnings.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income decreased 12.8% or $120.0 million to $816.0 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to a net income of $936.0 million in fiscal 2023. Excluding items affecting comparability, net income increased 6.9% or $64.2 million to $1.00 billion in fiscal 2024 from $936.0 million in fiscal 2023.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net income per diluted share was $3.50 in fiscal 2024 as compared to net income per diluted share of $3.88 in fiscal 2023. Excluding items affecting comparability, net income per diluted share increased $0.41 to $4.29 in fiscal 2024 from $3.88 in fiscal 2023. This change was primarily due to higher net income and a decrease in shares outstanding.

FISCAL 2023 COMPARED TO FISCAL 2022

The comparison of fiscal 2023 to 2022 has been omitted from this Form 10-K, but can be referenced in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2023, filed on August 17, 2023 within Part II. Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations".

NON-GAAP MEASURES

The Company’s reported results are presented in accordance with GAAP. The reported SG&A expenses, operating income, interest expense, provision for income taxes, net income and earnings per diluted share in fiscal 2024 reflect certain items affecting comparability, including the impact of Acquisition costs. There were no items affecting comparability in fiscal 2023. As a supplement to the Company's reported results, these metrics are also reported on a non-GAAP basis to exclude the impact of these items along with a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

These non-GAAP performance measures were used by management to conduct and evaluate its business during its regular review of operating results for the periods affected. Management and the Company’s Board utilized these non-GAAP measures to make decisions about the uses of Company resources, analyze performance between periods, develop internal projections and measure management performance. The Company’s internal management reporting excluded these items. In addition, the HR Committee uses these non-GAAP measures when setting and assessing achievement of incentive compensation goals.

The Company operates on a global basis and reports financial results in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect the amounts reported by the Company in U.S. dollars with respect to its foreign revenues and profit. Accordingly, certain material increases and decreases in operating results for the Company and its segments have been presented both including and excluding currency fluctuation effects. These effects occur from translating foreign-denominated amounts into U.S. dollars and comparing to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. The Company calculates constant currency revenue results by translating current period revenue in local currency using the prior year period's currency conversion rate.

We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and others in evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating and financial results in a manner that is consistent with management's evaluation of business performance and understanding how such results compare with the Company’s historical performance. Additionally, we believe presenting certain increases and decreases in constant currency provides a framework for assessing the performance of the Company's business outside the United States and helps investors and analysts understand the effect of significant year-over-year currency fluctuations. We believe excluding these items assists investors and others in developing expectations of future performance.

By providing the non-GAAP measures, as a supplement to GAAP information, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in their usefulness and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. Further, these non-GAAP measures may be unique to the Company, as they may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

For a detailed discussion on these non-GAAP measures, see the GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation discussions above in this Item 7. "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	5,415.9	$	(63.7)	$	5,479.6

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased by $5.42 billion in fiscal 2024 compared to a decrease of $63.7 million in fiscal 2023, as discussed below.

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $280.4 million primarily due to changes in operating assets and liabilities of $426.8 million partially offset by lower net income of $120.0 million and lower impact of non-cash adjustments of $26.4 million.

The $426.8 million increase in changes in operating asset and liability balances was primarily driven by the following:

•Accrued liabilities were a source of cash of $91.6 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to a use of cash of $93.0 million in fiscal 2023, primarily driven by accrued incentive compensation and an increase in accrued interest due to issuance of the Capri Acquisition Senior Notes.

•Accounts payable were a source of cash of $49.1 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to a use of cash of $98.1 million in fiscal 2023, primarily driven by a reduction of in-transit inventory in the prior year.

•Other Assets were a use of cash of $0.1 million in fiscal 2024 as compared to a use of cash of $100.7 million in fiscal 2023, primarily driven by an increase in other receivables due to the net investment hedge, tax refunds in the current year and lower cloud computing project spend.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.04 billion in fiscal 2024 compared to a source of cash of $5.7 million in fiscal 2023, resulting in a $1.05 billion increase in net cash used in investing activities.

The $1.04 billion use of cash in fiscal 2024 was primarily due to purchases of investments of $2.71 billion, partially offset by maturities and sales of investments of $1.68 billion, mainly related to the proceeds of the Capri Acquisition Senior Notes.

The $5.7 million source of cash in fiscal 2023 was primarily due to proceeds from maturities and sales of investments of $148.0 million, settlement of net investment hedge of $41.9 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $184.2 million.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $5.21 billion in fiscal 2024 as compared to a use of cash of $1.04 billion in fiscal 2023, resulting in a $6.25 billion increase in net cash provided by financing activities.

The $5.21 billion source of cash in fiscal 2024 was primarily due to proceeds from the issuance of the Capri Acquisition Senior Notes of $6.09 billion, partially offset by the repayment of the Term Loan due 2027 of $468.8 million, and dividend payments of $321.4 million.

The $1.04 billion use of cash in fiscal 2023 was primarily due to repurchase of common stock of $703.5 million, dividend payments of $283.3 million, as well as taxes paid to net settle share-based awards of $55.6 million.

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was a decrease of $12.2 million as compared to a decrease of $8.7 million in fiscal 2023.

Cash Flows - Fiscal 2023 Compared to Fiscal 2022

The comparison of fiscal 2023 to 2022 has been omitted from this Form 10-K, but can be referenced in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2023, filed on August 17, 2023 within Part II. Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations".

Working Capital and Capital Expenditures

The following table presents our financial condition as of June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023:

	June 29, 2024		July 1, 2023		Change
	(millions)
Cash and cash equivalents(1)	$	6,142.0	$	726.1	$	5,415.9
Short-term investments(1)	1,061.8		15.4		1,046.4
Current debt(2)	(303.4)		(25.0)		(278.4)
Long-term debt(2)	(6,937.2)		(1,635.8)		(5,301.4)
Total, net	$	(36.8)	$	(919.3)	$	882.5

(1)    As of June 29, 2024, approximately 4.2% of our Cash and cash equivalents and Short-term investments were held outside the United States.

(2)    Refer to Note 12, "Debt" for discussion of the carrying values of our debt.

Sources of Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated from our operations, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, availability under our credit facilities and other available financing options.

The following table presents the total availability, borrowings outstanding and remaining availability under our credit facilities as of June 29, 2024:

	Total Availability		Borrowings Outstanding		Remaining Availability
	(millions)
Revolving Credit Facility(1)	$	2,000.0	$	—	$	2,000.0
Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities(1)	1,400.0		—		1,400.0
China Credit Facility(1)(2)	34.4		—		34.4
Total	$	3,434.4	$	—	$	3,434.4

(1)    Refer to Note 12, "Debt" for further information on these instruments.

(2)     The carrying amounts of the China Credit Facility include the impact of changes in the exchange rate of the United States Dollar against the RMB.

We believe that our Revolving Credit Facility is adequately diversified with no undue concentrations in any one financial institution. As of June 29, 2024, there were 18 financial institutions participating in the Revolving Credit Facility and 24 financial institutions participating in the Capri Acquisition Term Loan Facilities with no one participant maintaining a combined maximum commitment percentage in excess of 10%. We have no reason to believe, at this time, that the participating institutions will be unable to fulfill their obligations to provide financing in accordance with the terms of the facility in the event we elect to draw funds in the foreseeable future.

We have the ability to draw on our credit facilities or access other sources of financing options available to us in the credit and capital markets for, among other things, acquisition or integration-related costs, our restructuring initiatives, settlement of a material contingency or a material adverse business or macroeconomic development, as well as for other general corporate business purposes.

43

If (i) the Capri Acquisition has not been completed by February 10, 2025 (or such later date mutually agreed between the Company and Capri) (such date, the “special mandatory redemption end date”), (ii) prior to the special mandatory redemption end date, the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms or (iii) the Company otherwise notifies the trustee that it will not pursue the consummation of the Capri Acquisition, all of the Capri Acquisition Senior Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the special mandatory redemption date.

Management believes that cash flows from operations, access to the credit and capital markets and our credit lines, on-hand cash and cash equivalents and our investments will provide adequate funds to support our operating, capital and debt service requirements for fiscal 2025 and beyond. There can be no assurance that any such capital will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or at all. Our ability to fund working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and scheduled debt payments, as well as to comply with all of the financial covenants under our debt agreements, depends on future operating performance and cash flow. This future operating performance and cash flow are subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company's control.

To improve our working capital efficiency, we make available to certain suppliers, a voluntary supply chain finance (“SCF”) program that enables our suppliers to sell their receivables from the Company to a global financial institution on a non-recourse basis at a rate that leverages our credit rating. We do not have the ability to refinance or modify payment terms to the global financial institution through the SCF program. No guarantees are provided by the Company or any of our subsidiaries under the SCF program. Refer to Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Organization," for additional information.

Capital Expenditures

Total capital expenditures and cloud computing implementation costs were $144.1 million in fiscal 2024. Certain cloud computing implementation costs are recognized within Prepaid expenses and Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Seasonality

The Company's results are typically affected by seasonal trends. During the first fiscal quarter, we typically build inventory for the winter and holiday season. In the second fiscal quarter, working capital requirements are reduced substantially as we generate higher net sales and operating income, especially during the holiday season.

Fluctuations in net sales, operating income and operating cash flows of the Company in any fiscal quarter may be affected by the timing of wholesale shipments and other events affecting retail sales, including weather and macroeconomic events, such as pandemic diseases.

Stock Repurchase Plan

On May 12, 2022, the Company announced the Board authorized the additional repurchase of up to $1.50 billion of its common stock. Pursuant to this program, purchases of the Company's common stock will be made subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases. Repurchased shares of common stock will become authorized but unissued shares. These shares may be issued in the future for general corporate and other purposes. In addition, the Company may terminate or limit the stock repurchase program at any time. As of June 29, 2024 the Company had $800 million of additional shares available to be repurchased as authorized under the 2022 Share Repurchase Program. In August 2023, the Company suspended its share repurchase activity in connection with the Capri Acquisition. Refer to Note 5, "Acquisitions," for further information. There were no shares repurchased during fiscal 2024.
