NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Business and Basis of Presentation

Capri Holdings Limited ("Capri", and together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on December 13, 2002. The Company is a holding company that owns brands that are leading designers, marketers, distributors and retailers of branded women’s and men’s accessories, footwear and ready-to-wear bearing the Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors tradenames and related trademarks and logos. The Company operates in three reportable segments: Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors. See Note 16 for additional information.

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned or controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements as of September 25, 2021 and for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 are unaudited. The Company consolidates the results of its Versace business on a one-month lag, as consistent with prior periods. In addition, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 27, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 26, 2021, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

The Company utilizes a 52- to 53-week fiscal year and the term “Fiscal Year” or “Fiscal” refers to that 52- or 53-week period. The results for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 are based on 13-week and 26-week periods, respectively. The Company’s Fiscal Year 2022 is a 53-week period ending April 2, 2022.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgment and make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The level of uncertainty in estimates and assumptions increases with the length of time until the underlying transactions are completed. The most significant assumptions and estimates involved in preparing the financial statements include allowances for customer deductions, sales returns, sales discounts and credit losses, estimates of inventory net realizable value, the valuation of share-based compensation, the valuation of deferred taxes and the valuation of goodwill, intangible assets, operating lease right-of-use assets and property and equipment, along with the estimated useful lives assigned to these assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Seasonality

The Company experiences certain effects of seasonality with respect to its business. The Company generally experiences greater sales during its third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during its first fiscal quarter.

COVID-19 Related Government Assistance and Subsidies

As there is no definitive guidance under U.S. GAAP, the Company has applied the guidance under International Accounting Standards 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance ("IAS 20"). The Company has elected to follow the income approach under IAS 20 and recognize these funds as a reduction to the related expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company recognized $3 million and $9 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively, and $7 million

8

and $23 million for the six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively, related to government assistance and subsidies.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Included in the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 are credit card receivables of $24 million and $25 million, respectively, which generally settle within two to three business days.

A reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 from the consolidated balance sheets to the consolidated statements of cash flows is as follows (in millions):

	September 25, 2021		March 27, 2021
Reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash
Cash and cash equivalents	$	234	$	232
Restricted cash included within prepaid expenses and other current assets	3		2
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows	$	237	$	234

Inventories, net

Inventories primarily consist of finished goods with the exception of raw materials and work in process inventory. The combined total of raw materials and work in process inventory, net, recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets was $30 million and $28 million as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, respectively.

The net realizable value of the Company’s inventory as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 includes the adverse impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain transactions. The Company, in its normal course of business, enters into transactions with foreign suppliers and seeks to minimize risks related to these transactions. The Company employs these contracts to hedge the Company’s cash flows, as they relate to foreign currency transactions. Certain of these contracts are designated as hedges for accounting purposes, while others remain undesignated. All of the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a gross basis, regardless of their hedge designation.

The Company designates certain contracts related to the purchase of inventory that qualify for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges. Formal hedge documentation is prepared for all derivative instruments designated as hedges, including a description of the hedged item and the hedging instrument and the risk being hedged. The changes in the fair value for contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged item affects earnings. When the inventory related to forecasted inventory purchases that are being hedged is sold to a third party, the gains or losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income are recognized within cost of goods sold. The Company uses regression analysis to assess effectiveness of derivative instruments that are designated as hedges, which compares the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument to the change in the related hedged item. If the hedge is no longer expected to be highly effective in the future, future changes in the fair value are recognized in earnings. For those contracts that are not designated as hedges, changes in the fair value are recorded to foreign currency loss (gain) in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company classifies cash flows relating to its forward foreign currency exchange contracts related to purchase of inventory consistently with the classification of the hedged item within cash flows from operating activities.

The Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations. In order to mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Company only enters into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and certain other financial factors, adhering to established limits for credit

9

exposure. The aforementioned forward contracts generally have a term of no more than 12 months. The period of these contracts is directly related to the foreign transaction they are intended to hedge.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company also uses fixed-to-fixed cross currency swap agreements to hedge its net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between its U.S. Dollars and these foreign currencies. The Company has elected the spot method of designating these contracts under ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities”, and has designated these contracts as net investment hedges. The net gain or loss on the net investment hedge is reported within foreign currency translation gains and losses (“CTA”), as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Interest accruals and coupon payments are recognized directly in interest (income) expense, net, in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Upon discontinuation of a hedge, all previously recognized amounts remain in CTA until the net investment is sold, diluted or liquidated.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company also uses interest rate swap agreements to hedge the variability of its cash flows resulting from floating interest rates on the Company’s borrowings. When an interest rate swap agreement qualifies for hedge accounting as a cash flow hedge, the changes in the fair value are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified into interest (income) expense, net, in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.

Leases

The Company leases retail stores, office space and warehouse space under operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through September 2043. The Company’s leases generally have terms of up to 10 years, generally require a fixed annual rent and may require the payment of additional rent if store sales exceed a negotiated amount. Although most of the Company’s equipment is owned, the Company has limited equipment leases that expire on various dates through August 2025. The Company acts as sublessor in certain leasing arrangements, primarily related to closed stores under its restructuring activities, as discussed in Note 8. Fixed sublease payments received are recognized on a straight-line basis over the sublease term. The Company determines the sublease term based on the date it provides possession to the subtenant through the expiration date of the sublease.

The Company recognizes operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at lease commencement date, based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rates to determine the present value of fixed lease payments based on the information available at the lease commencement date, as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s leases. The Company’s incremental borrowing rates are based on the term of the leases, the economic environment of the leases and reflect the expected interest rate it would incur to borrow on a secured basis. Certain leases include one or more renewal options. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion and as such, the Company typically determines that exercise of these renewal options is not reasonably certain. As a result, the Company generally does not include the renewal option period in the expected lease term and the associated lease payments are not included in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability. Certain leases also contain termination options with an associated penalty. Generally, the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise these options and as such, they are not included in the determination of the expected lease term. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s leases generally provide for payments of non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other costs associated with the leased property. The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components of its real estate leases together as a single lease component and, as such, includes fixed payments of non-lease components in the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for its real estate leases. Variable lease payments, such as percentage rentals based on sales, periodic adjustments for inflation, reimbursement of real estate taxes, any variable common area maintenance and any other variable costs associated with the leased property are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs and are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

The following table presents the Company’s supplemental cash flow information related to leases (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities:
Operating cash flows used in operating leases (1)	$	257	$	191

(1)Operating cash flows used in operating leases for the six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 excluded $5 million and $60 million, respectively, of rent payments that have been deferred due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the three and six months ended September 25, 2021, the Company recorded sublease income of $2 million and $4 million, respectively, and $1 million and $3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, within restructuring and other charges for stores relating to our restructuring plan and selling, general and administrative expenses for all other locations. During the three and six months ended September 25, 2021, the Company recorded $3 million and $10 million, respectively, and $9 million and $24 million for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, respectively, of rent concessions negotiated in connection with the impact of COVID-19 as if it were contemplated as part of the existing contract, and these concessions are recorded as a reduction to variable lease expense within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

The Company’s basic net income (loss) per ordinary share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if share option grants or any other potentially dilutive instruments, including restricted shares and restricted share units ("RSUs"), were exercised or converted into ordinary shares. These potentially dilutive securities are included in diluted shares to the extent they are dilutive under the treasury stock method for the applicable periods. Performance-based RSUs are included as diluted shares if the related performance conditions are considered satisfied as of the end of the reporting period and to the extent they are dilutive under the treasury stock method.

The components of the calculation of basic net income (loss) per ordinary share and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share are as follows (in millions, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020		September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020
Numerator:
Net income (loss) attributable to Capri	$	200	$	122	$	419	$	(58)
Denominator:
Basic weighted average shares	151,859,760		150,492,275		151,604,916		150,024,293
Weighted average dilutive share equivalents:
Share options and restricted shares/units, and performance restricted share units	2,359,489		1,184,967		2,958,616		—
Diluted weighted average shares	154,219,249		151,677,242		154,563,532		150,024,293
Basic net income (loss) per share (1)	$	1.31	$	0.81	$	2.76	$	(0.39)
Diluted net income (loss) per share (1)	$	1.30	$	0.81	$	2.71	$	(0.39)

(1)Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share are calculated using unrounded numbers.

During the three and six months ended September 25, 2021, share equivalents of 415,331 shares and 513,088 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the above calculations due to their anti-dilutive effect. Share equivalents of 3,961,838 shares and 4,675,372 shares have been excluded from the above calculations for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, respectively. Diluted net loss per share attributable to Capri for the six months ended September 26, 2020 excluded all

11

potentially dilutive securities because there was a net loss attributable to Capri for the period and, as such, the inclusion of these securities would have been anti-dilutive.

See Note 2 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for a complete disclosure of the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and, other than the recent pronouncement discussed below, has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows based on current information.

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04, "Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting" and in January 2021, issued ASU 2021-01, "Reference Rate Reform: Scope". Both of these updates aim to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. These updates provide optional expedients and exceptions, if certain criteria are met, for applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The amendments were effective upon issuance and allow companies to adopt the amendments on a prospective basis through December 31, 2022. The Company has not applied the ASUs to any contract modifications or new hedging relationships in the current year.

3. Revenue Recognition

The Company accounts for contracts with its customers when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties and payment terms have been identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectibility of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for goods or services.

The Company sells its products through three primary channels of distribution: retail, wholesale and licensing. Within the retail and wholesale channels, substantially all of the Company’s revenues consist of sales of products that represent a single performance obligation, where control transfers at a point in time to the customer. For licensing arrangements, royalty and advertising revenue is recognized over time based on access provided to the Company’s trademarks.

Retail

The Company generates sales through directly operated stores and e-commerce sites throughout the Americas (U.S., Canada and Latin America), certain parts of EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and certain parts of Asia (including Australia).

Gift Cards. The Company sells gift cards that can be redeemed for merchandise, resulting in a contract liability upon issuance. Revenue is recognized when the gift card is redeemed or upon “breakage” for the estimated portion of gift cards that are not expected to be redeemed. “Breakage” revenue is calculated under the proportional redemption methodology, which considers the historical patterns of redemption in jurisdictions where the Company is not required to remit the value of the unredeemed gift cards as unclaimed property. The contract liability related to gift cards, net of estimated “breakage”, of $12 million and $12 million as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, respectively, is included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Loyalty Program. The Company offers a loyalty program, which allows its Michael Kors U.S. customers to earn points on qualifying purchases toward monetary and non-monetary rewards, which may be redeemed for purchases at Michael Kors retail stores and e-commerce sites. The Company defers a portion of the initial sales transaction based on the estimated relative fair value of the benefits based on projected timing of future redemptions and historical activity. These amounts include estimated “breakage” for points that are not expected to be redeemed.

12

Wholesale

The Company’s products are sold primarily to major department stores, specialty stores and travel retail shops throughout the Americas, EMEA and Asia. The Company also has arrangements where its products are sold to geographic licensees in certain parts of EMEA, Asia and South America.

Licensing

The Company provides its third-party licensees with the right to access its Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors trademarks under product and geographic licensing arrangements. Under geographic licensing arrangements, third party licensees receive the right to distribute and sell products bearing the Company’s trademarks in retail and/or wholesale channels within certain geographical areas, including Brazil, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, South Africa and certain parts of Asia.

The Company recognizes royalty revenue and advertising contributions based on the percentage of sales made by the licensees. Generally, the Company’s guaranteed minimum royalty amounts due from licensees relate to contractual periods that do not exceed 12 months, however, certain guaranteed minimums for Versace are multi-year based.

As of September 25, 2021, contractually guaranteed minimum fees from the Company’s license agreements expected to be recognized as revenue during future periods were as follows (in millions):

	Contractually Guaranteed Minimum Fees
Remainder of Fiscal 2022	$	15
Fiscal 2023	29
Fiscal 2024	27
Fiscal 2025	23
Fiscal 2026	24
Fiscal 2027 and thereafter	75
Total	$	193

Sales Returns

The refund liability recorded as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 was $48 million and $46 million, respectively, and the related asset for the right to recover returned product as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 was $15 million and $14 million, respectively.

Contract Balances

Total contract liabilities were $17 million and $18 million as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, respectively. For the three and six months ended September 25, 2021, the Company recognized $2 million and $8 million, respectively, in revenue which related to contract liabilities that existed at March 27, 2021. For the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recognized $2 million and $5 million, respectively, in revenue which related to contract liabilities that existed at March 28, 2020. There were no material contract assets recorded as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021.

There were no changes in historical variable consideration estimates that were materially different from actual results.

(1)As of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, $67 million and $81 million, respectively, of trade receivables were insured.

Receivables are presented net of allowances for discounts, markdowns, operational chargebacks and credit losses. Discounts are based on open invoices where trade discounts have been extended to customers. Markdowns are based on wholesale customers’ sales performance, seasonal negotiations with customers, historical deduction trends and an evaluation of current market conditions. Operational chargebacks are based on deductions taken by customers, net of expected recoveries. Such provisions, and related recoveries, are reflected in revenues.

14

The Company’s allowance for credit losses is determined through analysis of periodic aging of receivables and assessments of collectability based on an evaluation of historic and anticipated trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers and the impact of general economic conditions. The past due status of a receivable is based on its contractual terms. Amounts deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance when it is probable the amounts will not be recovered. Allowance for credit losses was $16 million and $25 million as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, respectively, including the impact related to COVID-19. The Company had immaterial credit losses for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and $(1) million for the six months ended September 25, 2021.

Capri Retail Store Optimization Program

As previously announced, the Company intends to close approximately 170 of its retail stores over two fiscal years, which began during Fiscal 2021 and will continue into Fiscal 2022, in connection with its Capri Retail Store Optimization Program in order to improve the profitability of its retail store fleet. In addition, the Company has reassessed the total cost of the plan and now expects to incur approximately $25 million of one-time costs related to this program, including lease termination and other store closure costs, the majority of which are expected to result in future cash expenditures.

During the three and six months ended September 25, 2021, the Company closed 16 and 26 of its retail stores, respectively, which have been incorporated into the Capri Retail Store Optimization Program. Net restructuring (gains) charges recorded in connection with the Capri Retail Store Optimization Program during the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 were $(1) million and $(4) million, respectively, and $2 million and $5 million, during the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, respectively.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

On June 25, 2020, the Company entered into the second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to its third amended and restated credit facility, dated as of November 15, 2018 (as amended, the “2018 Credit Facility”), with, among others, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent.

Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the financial covenant in the Company’s 2018 Credit Facility required it to maintain a ratio of the sum of total indebtedness plus the capitalized amount of all operating lease obligations for the last four fiscal quarters to Consolidated EBITDAR of no greater than 3.75 to 1.00 had been waived through the fiscal quarter ending June 26, 2021.

In addition, the Second Amendment added a new $230 million revolving line of credit with a maturity date of June 24, 2021 (the “364 Day Facility”).

The Second Amendment also permitted certain working capital facilities between the Company or any of its subsidiaries with a lender or an affiliate of a lender under the 2018 Credit Facility to be guaranteed under the 2018 Credit Facility guarantees and certain supply chain financings with, and up to $50 million outstanding principal amount of bilateral letters of credit and bilateral bank guarantees issued by a lender or an affiliate of a lender to be guaranteed and secured under the 2018 Credit Facility guarantees and collateral documents. The Second Amendment, among other things, also temporarily suspended the quarterly maximum leverage ratio covenant and imposed a minimum liquidity test during the period from June 25, 2020 until the earlier of (x) the date on which the Company delivers its financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending June 26, 2021 and (y) the date on which the Company certifies that its net leverage ratio as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter was no greater than 4.00 to 1.00 (the “Applicable Period”).

On May 20, 2021, the Company determined it no longer desired to maintain this additional line of credit and consequently delivered a notice to the administrative agent terminating the 364 Day Facility, and the 364 Day Facility terminated on May 25, 2021. The remainder of the 2018 Credit Facility remains in full force and effect.

On May 26, 2021 (the “Election Date”), the Company delivered to the administrative agent the certificate required to terminate the Applicable Period. Effective as of the Election Date, the Company will be required to comply with the quarterly maximum net leverage ratio test of 4.00 to 1.00.

On September 23, 2021, the Company agreed to suspend its rights to borrow in all non-U.S. Dollar (i.e. Pounds Sterling, Euro, Swiss Francs and Japanese Yen) currency LIBOR rate tenors under the 2018 Credit Facility after December 31, 2021 given that non-U.S. Dollar LIBOR will no longer be published after that date.

18

As of September 25, 2021, and the date these financial statements were issued, the Company was in compliance with all covenants related to the 2018 Credit Facility.

As of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, stand-by letters of credit of $28 million and $27 million were outstanding as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, respectively. At September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, the amount available for future borrowings under the 2018 Revolving Credit Facility were $972 million and $973 million, respectively.

As of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, the carrying value of borrowings outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan Facility was $644 million and $865 million, respectively, of which there was no amount recorded within short-term debt as of September 25, 2021 and $97 million recorded within short-term debt as of March 27, 2021 and $644 million and $768 million, respectively, was recorded within long-term debt in its consolidated balance sheets.

During Fiscal 2021, the Company began offering a supplier financing program to certain suppliers as the Company continues to identify opportunities to improve liquidity. This program enables suppliers, at their sole discretion, to sell their receivables (i.e., the Company’s payment obligations to suppliers) to a financial institution on a non-recourse basis in order to be paid earlier than current payment terms provide. The Company’s obligations, including the amount due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by a suppliers’ decision to participate in this program. The Company does not reimburse suppliers for any costs they incur to participate in the program and their participation is voluntary. The amount outstanding under this program as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 was $31 million and $17 million, respectively, and was recorded within short-term debt in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company's subsidiary, Versace, entered into an agreement with Banco BPM Banking Group ("the Bank") to sell certain tax receivables to the Bank in exchange for cash. As of September 25, 2021, the outstanding balance was $19 million, with $9 million and $10 million recorded within short-term debt and long-term debt in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, respectively.

See Note 12 to the Company’s Fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding the Company’s credit facilities and debt obligations.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to various legal proceedings and claims. Although the outcome of such claims cannot be determined with certainty, the Company believes that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on its cash flow, results of operations or financial position.

Please refer to the Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments disclosure within the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for a detailed disclosure of other commitments and contractual obligations as of March 27, 2021.

11. Fair Value Measurements

Financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value using the three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The determination of the applicable level within the hierarchy of a particular asset or liability depends on the inputs used in the valuation as of the measurement date, notably the extent to which the inputs are market-based (observable) or internally derived (unobservable). Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs based on a company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

19

Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

At September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, the fair values of the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts, interest rate swaps and net investment hedges were determined using broker quotations, which were calculations derived from observable market information: the applicable currency rates at the balance sheet date and those forward rates particular to the contract at inception. The Company makes no adjustments to these broker obtained quotes or prices, but assesses the credit risk of the counterparty and would adjust the provided valuations for counterparty credit risk when appropriate. The fair values of the forward contracts are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on whether they represent assets or liabilities to the Company. The fair values of net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are included in other assets, and in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on whether they represent assets or liabilities of the Company. See Note 12 for further detail.

All contracts are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as shown in the following table (in millions):

	Fair value at September 25, 2021 using:						Fair value at March 27, 2021 using:
	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)

The Company’s long-term debt obligations are recorded in its consolidated balance sheets at carrying values, which may differ from the related fair values. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is estimated using external pricing data, including any available quoted market prices and based on other debt instruments with similar characteristics. Borrowings under revolving credit agreements, if outstanding, are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the frequent nature of such borrowings and repayments. See Note 9 for detailed information related to carrying values of the Company’s outstanding debt. The following table summarizes the carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s short- and long-term debt, based on Level 2 measurements (in millions):

	September 25, 2021				March 27, 2021
	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Senior Notes due 2024	$	447	$	476	$	447	$	470
Term Loan	$	644	$	641	$	865	$	866
Revolving Credit Facilities	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.

20

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities

The Company’s non-financial assets include goodwill, intangible assets, operating lease right-of-use assets and property and equipment. Such assets are reported at their carrying values and are not subject to recurring fair value measurements. The Company’s goodwill and its indefinite-lived intangible assets (Versace and Jimmy Choo brands) are assessed for impairment at least annually, while its other long-lived assets, including operating lease right-of-use assets, property and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets, are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any such asset may not be recoverable. The Company determines the fair values of these assets based on Level 3 measurements using the Company’s best estimates of the amount and timing of future discounted cash flows, based on historical experience, market conditions, current trends and performance expectations.

The Company recorded $33 million of impairment charges during the three and six months ended September 25, 2021. The Company recorded $22 million in impairment charges during the three and six months ended September 26, 2020. The following table details the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s assets that have been impaired during the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and three and six months ended September 26, 2020 (in millions):

	Three and Six Months Ended September 25, 2021						Three and Six Months Ended September 26, 2020
	Carrying Value Prior to Impairment		Fair Value		Impairment Charge		Carrying Value Prior to Impairment		Fair Value		Impairment Charge (1)
Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets	$	83	$	53	$	30	$	46	$	26	$	20
Property and Equipment	4		1		3		5		3		2
Total	$	87	$	54	$	33	$	51	$	29	$	22

(1)     Includes $2 million of impairment charges that were recorded within restructuring and other charges related to the Capri Retail Store Optimization Program for both the three and six months ended September 26, 2020.

12. Derivative Financial Instruments

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

The Company uses forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain of its transactions. The Company, in its normal course of business, enters into transactions with foreign suppliers and seeks to minimize risks related to certain forecasted inventory purchases by using forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Company only enters into derivative instruments with highly credit-rated counterparties. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

Net Investment Hedges

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company modified multiple fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $2.875 billion to hedge its net investment in Euro denominated subsidiaries. Certain of these contracts are supported by a credit support annex ("CSA") which provides for collateral exchange with the earliest effective date being May 2023. If the outstanding position of a contract exceeds a certain threshold governed by the aforementioned CSA's, either party is required to post cash collateral. Due to an-other-than-insignificant financing element on certain of these modified contracts, the net interest cash inflows of $8 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021 related to these contracts are classified as financing activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

As of September 25, 2021, the Company had multiple fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $4 billion to hedge its net investment in Euro denominated subsidiaries and $194 million to hedge its net investment in Japanese Yen denominated subsidiaries against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and these currencies. Under the terms of these contracts, the Company will exchange the semi-annual fixed rate payments on U.S. denominated debt for fixed rate payments of 0% to 4.457% in Euros and 0% to 3.588% in Japanese Yen. Certain of these contracts include mandatory early termination dates between February 2024 and February 2026, while the remaining contracts have maturity dates between March 2024 and August 2050. These contracts have been designated as net investment hedges.

21

When a cross-currency swap is used as a hedging instrument in a net investment hedge assessed under the spot method, the cross-currency basis spread is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and is recognized as a reduction in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Accordingly, the Company recorded a reduction in interest expense of $15 million and $27 million during the three and six months ended September 25, 2021, respectively, and $2 million during both the three and six months ended September 26, 2020. This increase from prior year is primarily due to the Company having higher average notional amounts outstanding on these hedges.

Interest Rate Swap

As of September 25, 2021, the Company had an interest rate swap with an initial notional amount of $500 million that will decrease to $350 million in April 2022. The swap was designated as a cash flow hedge designed to mitigate the impact of adverse interest rate fluctuations for a portion of the Company’s variable-rate debt equal to the notional amount of the swap. The interest rate swap converts the one-month adjusted LIBOR interest rate on these borrowings to a fixed interest rate of 0.237% through December 2022.

When an interest rate swap agreement qualifies for hedge accounting as a cash flow hedge, the changes in the fair value are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. During the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, the Company recorded an immaterial amount of net interest expense related to this agreement.

The following table details the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts, which are recorded on a gross basis in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 (in millions):

					Fair Values
	Notional Amounts				Assets						Liabilities
	September 25, 2021		March 27, 2021		September 25, 2021			March 27, 2021			September 25, 2021			March 27, 2021
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts	$	119	$	155	$	4	(1)	$	2	(1)	$	—		$	1	(2)
Net investment hedges	4,194		3,194		33		(3)	3		(3)	118		(4)	263		(4)

Total designated hedges	4,813		3,849		37			5			118			265
Undesignated derivative contracts (5)	22		13		—			—			—			—
Total	$	4,835	$	3,862	$	37		$	5		$	118		$	265

(1)Recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(2)Recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(3)Recorded within other assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(4)Recorded within other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(5)Primarily includes undesignated hedges of inventory purchases.

22

The Company records and presents the fair values of all of its derivative assets and liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets on a gross basis, as shown in the previous table. However, if the Company were to offset and record the asset and liability balances for its derivative instruments on a net basis in accordance with the terms of its master netting arrangements, which provide for the right to set-off amounts for similar transactions denominated in the same currencies, the resulting impact as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021 would be as follows (in millions):

	Forward Currency Exchange Contracts				Net Investment Hedges				Interest Rate Swaps
	September 25, 2021		March 27, 2021		September 25, 2021		March 27, 2021		September 25, 2021		March 27, 2021
Assets subject to master netting arrangements	$	4	$	2	$	33	$	3	$	—	$	—
Liabilities subject to master netting arrangements	$	—	$	1	$	118	$	263	$	—	$	1
Derivative assets, net	$	4	$	1	$	29	$	3	$	—	$	—
Derivative liabilities, net	$	—	$	—	$	114	$	263	$	—	$	1

Currently, the Company’s master netting arrangements do not require cash collateral to be pledged by the Company or its counterparties.

Changes in the fair value of the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts that are designated as accounting hedges are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings when the items underlying the hedged transactions are recognized into earnings, as a component of cost of goods sold within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The net gain or loss on net investment hedges are reported within foreign currency translation gains and losses (“CTA”) as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Upon discontinuation of the hedge, such amounts remain in CTA until the related investment is sold or liquidated. Changes in the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps that are designated as accounting hedges are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings when the items underlying the hedged transactions are recognized into earnings, as a component of interest expense within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The following table summarizes the pre-tax impact of the gains and losses on the Company’s designated forward foreign currency exchange contracts, net investment hedges and interest rate swaps (in millions):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020		September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020
	Pre-Tax Gains Recognized in OCI		Pre-Tax Losses Recognized in OCI		Pre-Tax Gains Recognized in OCI		Pre-Tax Losses Recognized in OCI
Designated forward foreign currency exchange contracts	$	3	$	—	$	2	$	—
Designated net investment hedges	$	89	$	(42)	$	172	$	(42)
Designated interest rate swaps	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	(1)

23

The following tables summarize the pre-tax impact of the gains and losses within the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) related to the designated forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 (in millions):

	Three Months Ended
	Pre-Tax Loss (Gain) Reclassified from Accumulated OCI				Location of Gain Recognized
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020
Designated forward foreign currency exchange contracts	$	1	$	(2)	Cost of goods sold

	Six Months Ended
	Pre-Tax Loss (Gain) Reclassified from Accumulated OCI				Location of Gain recognized
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020
Designated forward foreign currency exchange contracts	$	2	$	(3)	Cost of goods sold

The Company expects that substantially all of the amounts currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income for its forward foreign currency exchange contracts will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months, based upon the timing of inventory purchases and turnover.

Undesignated Hedges

During the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, the net impact of changes in the fair value of undesignated forward foreign currency exchange contracts recognized within foreign currency loss (gain) in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) was immaterial.

13. Shareholders’ Equity

Share Repurchase Program

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company reinstated its $500 million share repurchase program, which was previously suspended during the first quarter of Fiscal 2021 in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the provisions of the Second Amendment of the 2018 Credit Facility. During the six months ended September 25, 2021, the Company purchased 2,712,275 shares for a total cost of approximately $150 million including commissions, through open market transactions under the current plan. As of September 25, 2021, the remaining availability under the Company’s share repurchase program was $250 million. During the six months ended September 26, 2020, the Company did not purchase any shares through open market transactions under the current plan, as the Company's share repurchase plan was suspended at that time. Share repurchases may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, trading transactions under the Company’s insider trading policy and other relevant factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

The Company also has in place a “withhold to cover” repurchase program, which allows the Company to withhold ordinary shares from certain executive officers and directors to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of their restricted share awards. During the six month periods ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, the Company withheld 193,322 shares and 47,635 shares, respectively, with a fair value of $10 million and $1 million, respectively, in satisfaction of minimum tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of restricted share awards.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The following table details changes in the components of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of taxes, for the six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively (in millions):

	Foreign Currency Adjustments (1)		Net (Losses) Gains on Derivatives (2)		Other Comprehensive Income Attributable to Capri
Balance at March 27, 2021	$	57	$	(1)	$	56
Other comprehensive income before reclassifications	114		2		116
Less: amounts reclassified from AOCI to earnings	—		(2)		(2)
Other comprehensive income, net of tax	114		4		118
Balance at September 25, 2021	$	171	$	3	$	174
Balance at March 28, 2020	$	72	$	3	$	75
Other comprehensive income before reclassifications	53		—		53
Less: amounts reclassified from AOCI to earnings	—		3		3
Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax	53		(3)		50
Balance at September 26, 2020	$	125	$	—	$	125

(1)Foreign currency translation adjustments for the six months ended September 25, 2021 primarily include a $132 million gain, net of taxes of $40 million, relating to the Company's net investment hedges, and a net $23 million translation loss. Foreign currency translation adjustments for the six months ended September 26, 2020 primarily include a net $88 million translation gain partially offset by a $35 million loss, net of taxes of $7 million, relating to the Company's net investment hedges.

(2)Reclassified amounts primarily relate to the Company’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts for inventory purchases and are recorded within cost of goods sold in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). All tax effects were not material for the periods presented.

14. Share-Based Compensation

The Company grants equity awards to certain employees and directors of the Company at the discretion of the Company’s Compensation and Talent Committee. The Company has two equity plans, one stock option plan adopted in Fiscal 2008 (as amended and restated, the “2008 Plan”), and the Omnibus Incentive Plan adopted in the third fiscal quarter of Fiscal 2012 and amended and restated with shareholder approval in May 2015, and again in June 2020 (the “Incentive Plan”). The 2008 Plan only provided for grants of share options and was authorized to issue up to 23,980,823 ordinary shares. As of September 25, 2021, there were no shares available to grant equity awards under the 2008 Plan. The Incentive Plan allows for grants of share options, restricted shares and RSUs, and other equity awards, and authorizes a total issuance of up to 18,846,000 ordinary shares after amendments in June 2020. At September 25, 2021, there were 3,932,474 ordinary shares available for future grants of equity awards under the Incentive Plan. Option grants issued from the 2008 Plan generally expire ten years from the date of the grant, and those issued under the Incentive Plan generally expire seven years from the date of the grant.

25

The following table summarizes the Company’s share-based compensation activity during the six months ended September 25, 2021:

	Options	Service-Based RSUs	Performance-Based RSUs
Outstanding/Unvested at March 27, 2021	1,150,260	4,895,517	581,659
Granted	—	1,626,688	—
Exercised/Vested	(283,076)	(1,777,764)	(347,561)
Change due to performance condition	—	—	26,109
Canceled/Forfeited	(360,750)	(225,692)	—
Outstanding/Unvested at September 25, 2021	506,434	4,518,749	260,207

The weighted average grant date fair value of service-based RSUs granted during the six months ended September 25, 2021 was $51.64. The weighted average grant date fair value of service-based RSUs granted during the six months ended September 26, 2020 was $15.98.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

The following table summarizes compensation expense attributable to share-based compensation for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 (in millions):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020		September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020
Share-based compensation expense	$	20	$	17	$	56	$	41
Tax benefit related to share-based compensation expense	$	4	$	4	$	11	$	9

Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company estimates forfeitures based on its historical forfeiture rates. The estimated value of future forfeitures for equity grants as of September 25, 2021 is approximately $17 million.

See Note 17 in the Company’s Fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to the Company’s share-based compensation awards.

15. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 was (1.0)% and 7.7%, respectively. Such rates differ from the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) federal statutory rate of 19% primarily due to a benefit recognized as a result of recently enacted tax legislation in Italy which allowed the Company to reduce its deferred tax liabilities. Specifically, this change allowed the Company to step up certain intangible assets which will result in lower future cash taxes. In addition, the tax rate for each period was further reduced by the favorable impact of global financing activities, partially offset by the increases in uncertain tax positions for the three months ended September 25, 2021. For the six months ended September 25, 2021, the tax rate was also negatively impacted by the tax rate change in the United Kingdom on the Company's net deferred tax liabilities.

The global financing activities are related to the Company’s 2014 move of its principal executive office from Hong Kong to the U.K. and decision to become a U.K. tax resident. In connection with this decision, the Company funded its international growth strategy through intercompany debt financing arrangements. These debt financing arrangements reside between certain of our U.S., U.K. and Hungarian subsidiaries. Due to the difference in the statutory income tax rates between these jurisdictions, the Company realized lower effective tax rates for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021.

26

16. Segment Information

The Company operates its business through three operating segments - Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors, which are based on its business activities and organization. The reportable segments are segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources, as well as in assessing performance. The primary key performance indicators are revenue and operating income for each segment. The Company’s reportable segments represent components of the business that offer similar merchandise, customer experience and sales/marketing strategies.

The Company’s three reportable segments are as follows:

•Versace — segment includes revenue generated through the sale of Versace luxury accessories, ready-to-wear and footwear through directly operated Versace boutiques throughout North America (United States and Canada), certain parts of EMEA and certain parts of Asia, as well as through Versace outlet stores and e-commerce sites. In addition, revenue is generated through wholesale sales to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements that allow third parties to use the Versace trademarks in connection with retail and/or wholesale sales of Versace branded products in specific geographic regions), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide, as well as through product license agreements in connection with the manufacturing and sale of jeans, fragrances, watches, jewelry, eyewear and home furnishings.

•Jimmy Choo — segment includes revenue generated through the sale of Jimmy Choo luxury footwear, handbags and small leather goods and accessories through directly operated Jimmy Choo retail and outlet stores throughout the Americas, certain parts of EMEA and certain parts of Asia, through its e-commerce sites, as well as through wholesale sales of luxury goods to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements that allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo trademarks in connection with retail and/or wholesale sales of Jimmy Choo branded products in specific geographic regions), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide. In addition, revenue is generated through product licensing agreements, which allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of fragrances and eyewear.

•Michael Kors — segment includes revenue generated through the sale of Michael Kors products through four primary Michael Kors retail store formats: “Collection” stores, “Lifestyle” stores (including concessions), outlet stores and e-commerce sites, through which the Company sells Michael Kors products, as well as licensed products bearing the Michael Kors name, directly to consumers throughout the Americas, certain parts of EMEA and certain parts of Asia. The Company also sells Michael Kors products directly to department stores, primarily located across the Americas and Europe, to specialty stores and travel retail shops, and to its geographic licensees. In addition, revenue is generated through product and geographic licensing arrangements, which allow third parties to use the Michael Kors brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of products, including watches, jewelry, fragrances and eyewear.

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has certain corporate costs that are not directly attributable to its brands and, therefore, are not allocated to its segments. Such costs primarily include certain administrative, corporate occupancy, shared service and information systems expenses, including enterprise resource planning system implementation costs. In addition, certain other costs are not allocated to segments, including restructuring and other charges (including transition costs related to the Company’s acquisitions), impairment costs and COVID-19 related charges. The segment structure is consistent with how the Company’s CODM plans and allocates resources, manages the business and assesses performance. All intercompany revenues are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance.

27

The following table presents the key performance information of the Company’s reportable segments (in millions):

17. Subsequent Events

Share Repurchase Program

On November 3, 2021, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has terminated the Company’s existing $500 million share repurchase program, with $250 million of availability remaining, and authorized a new share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, repurchase up to $1.0 billion of its outstanding ordinary shares within a period of two years from the effective date of the program. Share repurchases may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, trading restrictions under the Company’s insider trading policy and other relevant factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) of our Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included as part of this interim report. Forward-looking statements are prospective in nature and are not based on historical facts, but rather on current expectations and projections of the management of the Company about future events, and are therefore subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from the future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts included herein, may be forward-looking statements. Without limitation, any statements preceded or followed by or that include the words “plans”, “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “may”, “anticipates”, “might” or similar words or phrases, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future financial performance. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results and are based on certain key assumptions, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied in any forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential material and significant impact on the Company’s future financial and operational results if retail stores are forced to close again and the pandemic is prolonged, including that our estimates could materially differ if the severity of the COVID-19 situation worsens, or if there are further supply chain disruptions, including additional production delays and increased costs, the length and severity of such outbreak across the globe and the pace of recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic, levels of cash flow and future availability of credit, compliance with restrictive covenants under the Company’s credit agreement, the Company’s ability to integrate successfully and to achieve anticipated benefits of any acquisition and to successfully execute our growth strategies; the risk of disruptions to the Company’s businesses; risks associated with operating in international markets and our global sourcing activities; the risk of cybersecurity threats and privacy or data security breaches; the negative effects of events on the market price of the Company’s ordinary shares and its operating results; significant transaction costs; unknown liabilities; the risk of litigation and/or regulatory actions related to the Company’s businesses; fluctuations in demand for the Company’s products; levels of indebtedness (including the indebtedness incurred in connection with acquisitions); the timing and scope of future share buybacks, which may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions, and are subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, trading restrictions under the Company’s insider trading policy and other relevant factors, and such share repurchases may be suspended or discontinued at any time, the level of other investing activities and uses of cash; changes in consumer traffic and retail trends; loss of market share and industry competition; fluctuations in the capital markets; fluctuations in interest and exchange rates; the occurrence of unforeseen epidemics and pandemics, disasters or catastrophes; political or economic instability in principal markets; adverse outcomes in litigation; and general, local and global economic, political, business and market conditions, as well as those risks set forth in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 27, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 26, 2021.

Overview

Our Business

Capri Holdings Limited is a global fashion luxury group, consisting of iconic brands that are industry leaders in design, style and craftsmanship, led by a world-class management team and renowned designers. Our brands cover the full spectrum of fashion luxury categories including women’s and men’s accessories, footwear and ready-to-wear as well as wearable technology, watches, jewelry, eyewear and a full line of fragrance products. Our goal is to continue to extend the global reach of our brands while ensuring that they maintain their independence and exclusive DNA.

Our Versace brand has long been recognized as one of the world’s leading international fashion design houses and is synonymous with Italian glamour and style. Founded in 1978 in Milan, Versace is known for its iconic and unmistakable style and unparalleled craftsmanship. Over the past several decades, the House of Versace has grown globally from its roots in haute couture, expanding into the design, manufacturing, distribution and retailing of accessories, ready-to-wear, footwear, eyewear, watches, jewelry, fragrance and home furnishings businesses. Versace’s design team is led by Donatella Versace, who has been the brand’s artistic director for over 20 years. Versace distributes its products through a worldwide distribution network, which includes boutiques in some of the world’s most glamorous cities, its e-commerce site, as well as through the most prestigious department and specialty stores worldwide.

30

Our Jimmy Choo brand offers a distinctive, glamorous and fashion-forward product range, enabling it to develop into a leading global luxury accessories brand, whose core product offering is women’s luxury shoes, complemented by accessories, including handbags, small leather goods, scarves and belts, as well as a growing men’s luxury shoes and accessory business. In addition, certain categories, such as fragrances and eyewear, are produced under licensing agreements. Jimmy Choo’s design team is led by Sandra Choi, who has been the Creative Director for the brand since its inception in 1996. Jimmy Choo products are unique, instinctively seductive and chic. The brand offers classic and timeless luxury products, as well as innovative products that are intended to set and lead fashion trends. Jimmy Choo is represented through its global store network, its e-commerce sites, as well as through the most prestigious department and specialty stores worldwide.

Our Michael Kors brand was launched 40 years ago by Michael Kors, whose vision has taken the Company from its beginnings as an American luxury sportswear house to a global accessories, footwear and ready-to-wear company with a global distribution network that has presence in over 100 countries through Company-operated retail stores and e-commerce sites, leading department stores, specialty stores and select licensing partners. Michael Kors is a highly recognized luxury fashion brand in the Americas and Europe with growing brand awareness in other international markets. Michael Kors features distinctive designs, materials and craftsmanship with a jet-set aesthetic that combines stylish elegance and a sporty attitude. Michael Kors offers three primary collections: the Michael Kors Collection luxury line, the MICHAEL Michael Kors accessible luxury line and the Michael Kors Mens line. The Michael Kors Collection establishes the aesthetic authority of the entire brand and is carried by select retail stores, our e-commerce sites, as well as in the finest luxury department stores in the world. MICHAEL Michael Kors has a strong focus on accessories, in addition to offering footwear and ready-to-wear, and addresses the significant demand opportunity in accessible luxury goods. We have also been developing our men’s business in recognition of the significant opportunity afforded by the Michael Kors brand’s established fashion authority and the expanding men’s market. Taken together, our Michael Kors collections target a broad customer base while retaining our premium luxury image.

Certain Factors Affecting Financial Condition and Results of Operations

COVID-19 Pandemic. See Item 1A — "The COVID-19 pandemic may continue to have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for additional discussion regarding risks to our business associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Channel shift, macroeconomic factors, and demand for our accessories and related merchandise. Our performance is affected by trends in the luxury goods industry, global consumer spending, macroeconomic factors, overall levels of consumer travel and spending on discretionary items as well as shifts in demographics and changes in lifestyle preferences. Through 2019, the personal luxury goods market grew at a 5% rate over the past 20 years, with more recent growth driven by stronger Chinese demand from both international and local consumers and demographic and socioeconomic shifts resulting in younger consumers purchasing more luxury goods. Then, in 2020, due to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis, the personal luxury goods market declined 23%. Market studies indicate that the personal luxury goods market is predicted to increase at a 10% compound annual growth rate between 2020 and 2025, and will return to 2019 levels by the end of 2021 or in 2022. Future growth is expected to be driven by e-commerce, Chinese consumers and younger generations. As the personal luxury goods market continues to evolve, Capri is committed to creating engaging luxury experiences globally. In our view, increased customer engagement and tailoring merchandise to customer shopping and communication preferences are key to growing market share.

We also continue to adjust our retail operating strategy to the changing business environment. Last year, we announced our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program to close approximately 170 of our retail stores over two fiscal years, which began during Fiscal 2021 and will continue into Fiscal 2022, in order to improve the profitability of our retail store fleet. Over this time period, we initially expected to incur approximately $75 million of one-time costs associated with these store closures, however, based on a reassessment, we expect these costs to be approximately $25 million. As of September 25, 2021, we have closed a total of 127 stores and recorded net restructuring charges of $1 million relating to the program since its inception. Collectively, we continue to anticipate ongoing savings as a result of the store closures and lower depreciation associated with the impairment charges being recorded.

Foreign currency fluctuation. Our consolidated operations are impacted by the relationships between our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar, and those of our non-U.S. subsidiaries whose functional/local currency is other than the U.S. dollar, particularly the Euro, the British Pound, the Chinese Renminbi, the Japanese Yen, the Korean Won and the Canadian Dollar, among others. We continue to expect volatility in the global foreign currency exchange rates, which may have a negative impact on the reported results of certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in the future, when translated to U.S. Dollars.

Disruptions or delays in shipping and distribution and other supply chain constraints. We have been experiencing global logistics challenges, including delays as a result of port congestion, vessel availability, container shortages and temporary

31

factory closures which are expected to continue for the duration of Fiscal 2022. Our freight costs have increased as carrier rates for ocean and air shipments have increased significantly, and the supply chain disruptions have caused us to increase our use of air freight with greater frequency than in the past. Any future disruptions in our shipping and distribution network, including impacts on our supply chain due to temporary closures of our manufacturing partners and shipping and fulfillment constraints, could have a negative impact on our results of operations. See Item 1A — "Risk Factors" — "We primarily use foreign manufacturing contractors and independent third-party agents to source our finished goods and our business is subject to risks inherent in global sourcing activities, including disruptions or delays in manufacturing or shipments" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for additional discussion.

Costs of manufacturing, tariffs, and import regulations. Our industry is subject to volatility in costs related to certain raw materials used in the manufacturing of our products. This volatility applies primarily to costs driven by commodity prices, which can increase or decrease dramatically over a short period of time. In addition, our costs may be impacted by sanction tariffs imposed on our products due to changes in trade terms. 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. If the GSP program is not renewed or otherwise made retroactive, we will continue to experience significant additional duties and our gross margin will continue to be negatively impacted. Additionally, we are subject to government import regulations, including U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") withhold release orders. 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 a withhold release order could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If additional tariffs or trade restrictions are implemented by the U.S. or other countries, the cost of our products could increase which could adversely affect our business. In addition, commodity prices and tariffs may have an impact on our revenues, results of operations and cash flows. We use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate these effects by sourcing our products as efficiently as possible and diversifying the countries where we produce. In addition, manufacturing labor costs are also subject to degrees of volatility based on local and global economic conditions. We use commercially reasonable efforts to source from localities that suit our manufacturing standards and result in more favorable labor driven costs to our products.

Segment Information

We operate in three reportable segments, which are as follows:

Versace

We generate revenue through the sale of Versace luxury accessories, ready-to-wear and footwear through directly operated Versace boutiques throughout North America (United States and Canada), certain parts of EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and certain parts of Asia (including Australia), as well as through Versace outlet stores and e-commerce sites. In addition, revenue is generated through wholesale sales to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide, as well as through product license agreements in connection with the manufacturing and sale of products, including jeans, fragrances, watches, jewelry, eyewear and home furnishings.

Jimmy Choo

We generate revenue through the sale of Jimmy Choo luxury goods through directly operated Jimmy Choo retail and outlet stores throughout the Americas (United States, Canada and Latin America), certain parts of EMEA and certain parts of Asia, through our e-commerce sites, as well as through wholesale sales of luxury goods to distribution partners (including geographic licensing arrangements that allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo tradename in connection with retail and/or wholesale sales of Jimmy Choo branded products in specific geographic regions), multi-brand department stores and specialty stores worldwide. In addition, revenue is generated through product licensing agreements, which allow third parties to use the Jimmy Choo brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of products, including fragrances and eyewear.

Michael Kors

We generate revenue through the sale of Michael Kors products through four primary Michael Kors retail store formats: “Collection” stores, “Lifestyle” stores (including concessions), outlet stores and e-commerce, through which we sell our products, as well as licensed products bearing our name, directly to consumers throughout the Americas, certain parts of EMEA and certain parts of Asia. Our Michael Kors e-commerce business includes e-commerce sites in the U.S., Canada and EMEA and Asia. We also sell Michael Kors products directly to department stores, primarily located across the Americas and EMEA,

32

to specialty stores and travel retail shops in the Americas, Europe and Asia, and to our geographic licensees in certain parts of EMEA, Asia and Brazil. In addition, revenue is generated through product and geographic licensing arrangements, which allow third parties to use the Michael Kors brand name and trademarks in connection with the manufacturing and sale of products, including watches, jewelry, fragrances and eyewear, as well as through geographic licensing arrangements, which allow third parties to use the Michael Kors tradename in connection with the retail and/or wholesale sales of our Michael Kors branded products in specific geographic regions.

Unallocated Corporate Expenses

In addition to the reportable segments discussed above, we have certain corporate costs that are not directly attributable to our brands and, therefore, are not allocated to segments. Such costs primarily include certain administrative, corporate occupancy, shared service and information systems expenses, including ERP system implementation costs. In addition, certain other costs are not allocated to segments, including restructuring and other charges (including transaction and transition costs related to our acquisitions), impairment costs and COVID-19 related charges. The segment structure is consistent with how our chief operating decision maker plans and allocates resources, manages the business and assesses performance. The following table presents our total revenue and income (loss) from operations by segment for the three and six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 (in millions):

Seasonality

We experience certain effects of seasonality with respect to our business. We generally experience greater sales during our third fiscal quarter, primarily driven by holiday season sales, and the lowest sales during our first fiscal quarter.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies are those that are the most important to the portrayal of our results of operations and financial condition and that require our most difficult, subjective and complex judgments to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. In applying such policies, we must use certain assumptions that are based on our informed judgments, assessments of probability and best estimates. Estimates, by their nature, are subjective and are based on analysis of available information, including current and historical factors and the experience and judgment of management. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. While our significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, our critical accounting policies are disclosed, in full, in the MD&A section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since March 27, 2021.

Total Revenue

Total revenue increased $190 million, or 17.1%, to $1.300 billion for the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $1.110 billion for the three months ended September 26, 2020, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of approximately $23 million, primarily related to the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound, Chinese Renminbi and Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar during the three months ended September 25, 2021. On a constant currency basis, our total revenue increased $167 million, or 15.0%. The increase is attributable to the continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. In the prior fiscal year, the Company experienced widespread, temporary store closures and a significant decline in store traffic.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $174 million, or 24.5%, to $884 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $710 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $15 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue increased 400 basis points to 68.0% during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 64.0% during the three months ended September 26, 2020. The increase in our gross profit margin was primarily attributable to a higher average unit price and lower promotional activity, partially offset by increases in supply chain costs during the three months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to the three months ended September 26, 2020.

36

Total Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased $132 million, or 23.7%, to $689 million during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $557 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. Our operating expenses included a net unfavorable foreign currency impact of approximately $13 million. Total operating expenses increased to 53.0% as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 50.2% for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The components that comprise total operating expenses are explained below.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $125 million, or 26.4%, to $599 million during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $474 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to increased retail store, corporate, advertising, and e-commerce costs during the three months ended September 25, 2021.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 46.1% for the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 42.7% for the three months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to an increase in advertising, e-commerce and corporate costs during the three months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to the three months ended September 26, 2020.

Unallocated corporate expenses, which are included within selling, general and administrative expenses discussed above, but are not directly attributable to a reportable segment, increased $15 million, or 50.0%, to $45 million during the three months ended September 25, 2021 as compared to $30 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to an increase in compensation expense and professional fees.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization decreased $5 million, or 9.3%, to $49 million during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $54 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to lower depreciation due to lower capital expenditures in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021. Depreciation and amortization decreased to 3.8% as a percentage of total revenue during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 4.9% for the three months ended September 26, 2020 primarily due to lower revenues during the prior year due to COVID-19.

Impairment of Assets

During the three months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized asset impairment charges of $33 million, which primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets at certain Michael Kors store locations (see Note 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). During the three months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized asset impairment charges of approximately $20 million, primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets at certain Michael Kors store locations.

Restructuring and Other Charges

During the three months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $8 million, which included other costs of $9 million primarily related to equity awards associated with the acquisition of Versace and partially offset by $1 million of gains related to our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program (see Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).

During the three months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $9 million, which included other costs of $7 million primarily related to equity awards associated with the acquisition of Versace and $2 million related to our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program.

Restructuring and other charges are not evaluated as part of our reportable segments’ results (See Segment Information below for additional information).

37

Income from Operations

As a result of the foregoing, income from operations increased $42 million, to $195 million during three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $153 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. Income from operations as a percentage of total revenue increased to 15.0% during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 13.8% for the three months ended September 26, 2020. See Segment Information below for a reconciliation of our segment operating income to total operating income.

Interest (Income) Expense, net

During the three months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized $5 million of interest income compared to $12 million of interest expense for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The $17 million improvement in interest (income) expense, net is primarily due to an increase of interest income from higher average notional amounts outstanding and more favorable interest rates on our net investment hedges in the current year and a decrease in interest expense attributable to lower average borrowings outstanding (see Note 9 and Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).

Foreign Currency Loss

During the three months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $4 million, primarily attributable to the revaluation and settlement of certain of our accounts payable in currencies other than the functional currency, as well as the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.

During the three months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized an immaterial net foreign currency loss.

(Benefit) Provision for Income Taxes

The benefit for income taxes was $2 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to a provision of $20 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. Our effective tax rate was (1.0)% and 14.2% for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily due to recently enacted tax legislation in Italy which allowed us to reduce our deferred tax liabilities. Specifically, this change allowed us to step up certain intangible assets which will result in lower future cash taxes.

Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.

Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest

During the three months ended September 25, 2021, we recorded an immaterial net loss and during the three months ended September 26, 2020, we recorded a net loss of $1 million, attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint ventures. These losses represent the share of income that is not attributable to the Company.

Net Income Attributable to Capri

As a result of the foregoing, our net income increased $78 million to $200 million during the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to a net income of $122 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020.

Total Revenue

Total revenue increased $992 million, or 63.5%, to $2.553 billion for the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $1.561 billion for the six months ended September 26, 2020, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of approximately $86 million, primarily related to the strengthening of the Euro, British Pound, Chinese Renminbi and Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar during the six months ended September 25, 2021. On a constant currency basis, our total revenue increased $906 million, or 58.0%. The increase is attributable to the continued recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. In the prior fiscal year, the Company experienced widespread, temporary store closures and a significant decline in store traffic.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $728 million, or 71.9%, to $1.740 billion for the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $1.012 billion for the six months ended September 26, 2020, which included net favorable foreign currency effects of $58 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue increased 340 basis points to 68.2% during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 64.8% during the six months ended September 26, 2020. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily attributable to a higher average unit price and lower promotional activity, partially offset by increases in our supply chain costs during the six months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to the six months ended September 26, 2020.

41

Total Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased $266 million, or 26.1%, to $1.287 billion during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $1.021 billion for the six months ended September 26, 2020. Our operating expenses included a net unfavorable foreign currency impact of approximately $51 million. Total operating expenses decreased to 50.4% as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 65.4% for the six months ended September 26, 2020. The components that comprise total operating expenses are explained below.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $268 million, or 30.6%, to $1.144 billion during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $876 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to increased retail store, corporate, e-commerce, and advertising costs during the six months ended September 25, 2021.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 44.8% during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 56.1% for the six months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to leveraging of operating expenses as a result of higher revenue during the six months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to the six months ended September 26, 2020.

Unallocated corporate expenses, which are included within selling, general and administrative expenses discussed above, but are not directly attributable to a reportable segment, increased $25 million, or 41.0%, to $86 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021 as compared to $61 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to an increase in compensation expense and professional fees.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization decreased $9 million, or 8.3%, to $99 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $108 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to lower depreciation due to lower capital expenditures in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2021. Depreciation and amortization decreased to 3.9% as a percentage of total revenue during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 6.9% for the six months ended September 26, 2020 primarily due to higher revenues during the six months ended September 25, 2021 as a result of COVID-19.

Impairment of Assets

During the six months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized asset impairment charges of $33 million, which primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets at certain Michael Kors store locations (see Note 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information). During the six months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized asset impairment charges of approximately $20 million, which primarily related to operating lease right-of-use assets at certain Michael Kors store locations.

Restructuring and Other Charges

During the six months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $11 million, which included other costs of $15 million primarily related to equity awards associated with the acquisition of Versace and partially offset by $4 million of gains related to our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program (see Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).

During the six months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized restructuring and other charges of $17 million, which were primarily comprised of $12 million primarily related to equity awards associated with the acquisition of Versace and $5 million related to our Capri Retail Store Optimization Program.

Income (loss) from Operations

As a result of the foregoing, income from operations increased $462 million, to $453 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to a loss from operations of $9 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020. Income from operations as a percentage of total revenue increased to 17.7% during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to a loss from operations of (0.6)% for the six months ended September 26, 2020. See Segment Information below for a reconciliation of our segment operating income to total operating income.

42

Interest (Income) Expense, net

During the six months ended September 25, 2021, we recognized $4 million of interest income compared to $29 million of interest expense for the six months ended September 26, 2020. The $33 million improvement in interest (income) expense, net is primarily due to an increase of interest income from higher average notional amounts outstanding and more favorable interest rates on our net investment hedges in the current year and a decrease in interest expense attributable to lower average borrowings outstanding (see Note 9 and Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information).

Foreign Currency Loss (Gain)

During the six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, we recognized a net foreign currency loss of $5 million and a net foreign currency gains of $3 million, respectively, primarily attributable to the revaluation and settlement of certain of our accounts payable in currencies other than the functional currency, as well as the remeasurement of dollar-denominated intercompany loans with certain of our subsidiaries.

Provision for Income Taxes

We recognized $35 million of income tax expense during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to $25 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020. Our effective tax rate was 7.7% and (73.5)% for the six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended September 25, 2021 was significantly higher than our effective tax rate for the six months ended September 26, 2020 and not a meaningful or comparable metric, primarily due to the relationship between income tax expense and pre-tax loss in the prior period. The increase in income tax expense primarily related to the increase in earnings during the six months ended September 25, 2021 compared to the six months ended September 26, 2020. This increase was partially offset by the favorable effects of recently enacted tax legislation in Italy which allowed us to reduce our deferred tax liabilities. Specifically, this change allowed us to step up certain intangible assets which will result in lower future cash taxes.

Our effective tax rate may fluctuate from time to time due to the effects of changes in U.S. state and local taxes and tax rates in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, factors such as the geographic mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and the results of various global tax strategies, may also impact our effective tax rate in future periods.

Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest

During the six months ended September 25, 2021, we recorded an immaterial net loss and during the six months ended September 26, 2020, we recorded a net loss of $1 million, attributable to the noncontrolling interest in our joint ventures. These losses represent the share of income that is not attributable to the Company.

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Capri

As a result of the foregoing, our net income increased $477 million to a net income of $419 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021, compared to net loss of $58 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity are the cash flows generated from operations, along with borrowings available under our credit facilities (see below discussion regarding “Revolving Credit Facilities”) and available cash and cash equivalents. Our primary use of this liquidity is to fund the ongoing cash requirements, including our working capital needs and capital investments in our business, debt repayments, acquisitions, returns of capital, including share repurchases and other corporate activities. We believe that the cash generated from operations, together with borrowings available under our revolving credit facilities and available cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for the next 12 months and beyond, including investments made and expenses incurred in connection with our store growth plans, shop-in-shop growth, investments in corporate and distribution facilities, continued systems development, e-commerce and marketing initiatives. We spent $48 million on capital expenditures during the six months ended September 25, 2021.

The following table sets forth key indicators of our liquidity and capital resources (in millions):

	As of
	September 25, 2021		March 27, 2021

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $259 million to $396 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to $137 million for the six months ended September 26, 2020, as a result of an increase in our net income after non-cash adjustments, partially offset by decreases related to changes in our working capital. The decreases related to the changes in our working capital are primarily attributable to fluctuations in the timing of payments and receipts and an increase in our inventory levels when compared to the prior year.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $48 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to $71 million during the six months ended September 26, 2020, which was primarily attributable to lower cash paid for asset acquisitions and lower capital expenditures compared to prior year.

Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $342 million during the six months ended September 25, 2021, as compared to $421 million during the six months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease of cash used in financing activities of $79 million was primarily attributable to a decrease in net debt repayments of $215 million, partially offset by a $159 million increase in cash payments to repurchase our ordinary shares compared to prior year.

(1)The financial covenant in our 2018 Credit Facility requiring us to maintain a ratio of the sum of total indebtedness plus the capitalized amount of all operating lease obligations for the last four fiscal quarters to Consolidated EBITDAR of no greater than 3.75 to 1.00 had been waived through the fiscal quarter ending June 26, 2021. On May 26, 2021 (the "Election Date"), the company delivered to the administrative agent the certificate required to terminate the Applicable Period. Effective as of the Election Date, the Company is required to comply with the quarterly maximum net leverage ratio test of 4.00 to 1.00. As of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants related to our agreements then in effect governing our debt. See Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information.

(2)Recorded as long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 25, 2021 and March 27, 2021, except for the current portion of $97 million outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan Facility, which was recorded within short-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets at March 27, 2021.

(3)The balance as of September 25, 2021 consists of $31 million related to our supplier financing program recorded within short-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets, $19 million related to the sale of certain Versace tax receivables, with $9 million and $10 million, respectively, was recorded within short-term debt and long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets and $3 million of other loans recorded as long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets. The balance as of March 27, 2021 consists of $17 million related to our supplier finance program recorded within short-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets and $4 million of other loans recorded as long-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets.

(4)Recorded as short-term debt in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 27, 2021.

We believe that our 2018 Credit Facility is adequately diversified with no undue concentration in any one financial institution. As of September 25, 2021, there were 25 financial institutions participating in the facility, with none maintaining a maximum commitment percentage in excess of 10%. We have no reason to believe that the participating institutions will be unable to fulfill their obligations to provide financing in accordance with the terms of the 2018 Credit Facility.

See Note 9 in the accompanying financial statements and Note 12 in our Fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for detailed information relating to our credit facilities and debt obligations.

Share Repurchase Program

The following table presents our ordinary share repurchases during the six months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 (dollars in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	September 25, 2021		September 26, 2020

Shares withheld to cover tax withholding obligations	193,322		47,635
	2,905,597		47,635

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, we reinstated our $500 million share repurchase program, which was previously suspended during the first quarter of Fiscal 2021 in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the provisions of the Second Amendment of the 2018 Credit Facility. See Note 9 in the accompanying financial statements for additional information.

On November 3, 2021, we announced that our Board of Directors has terminated our existing $500 million share repurchase program, with $250 million of availability remaining, and authorized a new share repurchase program pursuant to which we may, from time to time, repurchase up to $1.0 billion of our outstanding ordinary shares within a period of two years from the effective date of the program. Share repurchases may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, trading restrictions under our insider trading policy and other relevant factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not created, and are not party to, any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating our business. Our off-balance sheet commitments relating to our outstanding letters of credit were $34 million at September 25, 2021, including $6 million in letters of credit issued outside of the 2018 Credit Facility. In addition, as of September 25, 2021, bank guarantees of approximately $35 million were supported by our various credit facilities. We do not have any other off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with entities that are not consolidated into our financial statements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain market risks during the normal course of our business, such as risk arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, as well as fluctuations in interest rates. In order to manage these risks, we employ certain strategies to mitigate the effect of these fluctuations. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to manage our foreign currency exposure to the fluctuations of certain foreign currencies. The use of these instruments primarily help to manage our exposure to our foreign purchase commitments and better control our product costs. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

We are exposed to risks on certain purchase commitments to foreign suppliers based on the value of our purchasing subsidiaries’ local currency relative to the currency requirement of the supplier on the date of the commitment. As such, we enter into forward currency exchange contracts that generally mature in 12 months or less and are consistent with the related purchase commitments, to manage our exposure to the changes in the value of the Euro and the Canadian Dollar. These contracts are recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets as either an asset or liability, and are derivative contracts to hedge cash flow risks. Certain of these contracts are designated as hedges for hedge accounting purposes, while certain of these contracts, are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the changes in the fair value of the majority of these contracts at the balance sheet date are recorded in our equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, and upon maturity (settlement) are recorded in, or reclassified into, our cost of goods sold or operating expenses, in our

consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss), as applicable to the transactions for which the forward currency exchange contracts were established.

We perform a sensitivity analysis on our forward currency contracts, both designated and not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, to determine the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For this sensitivity analysis, we assume a hypothetical change in U.S. Dollar against foreign exchange rates. Based on all foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding as of September 25, 2021, a 10% appreciation or devaluation of the U.S. Dollar compared to the level of foreign currency exchange rates for currencies under contract as of September 25, 2021, would result in a net increase and decrease, respectively, of approximately $14 million in the fair value of these contracts.

Net Investment Hedge

We are exposed to adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements related to our net investment hedges. As of September 25, 2021, we have multiple fixed to fixed cross-currency swap agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $4 billion to hedge our net investment in Euro-denominated subsidiaries and $194 million to hedge our net investments in Japanese Yen-denominated subsidiaries against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and this currency. Under the term of these contracts, we will exchange the semi-annual fixed rate payments on U.S. denominated debt for fixed rate payments of 0% to 4.457% in Euros and 0% to 3.588% in Japanese Yen. Based on the net investment hedges outstanding as of September 25, 2021, a 10% appreciation or devaluation of the U.S. Dollar compared to the level of foreign currency exchange rates for currencies under contract as of September 25, 2021, would result in a potential net increase or decrease upon settlement of approximately $543 million in the fair value of this contract, which include mandatory early termination dates between February 2024 and February 2026, while the remaining contracts have maturity dates between March 2024 and August 2050. Certain of these contracts are supported by a credit support annex ("CSA") which provides for collateral exchange with the earliest effective date being May 2023. If the outstanding position of a contract exceeds a certain threshold governed by the aforementioned CSA's, either party is required to post cash collateral.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk in relation to borrowings outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility, our Credit Facility, our Hong Kong Credit Facility, our Japan Credit Facility and our Versace Credit Facilities. Our 2018 Term Loan Facility carries interest at a rate that is based on LIBOR. Our 2018 Credit Facility carries interest rates that are tied to LIBOR and the prime rate, among other institutional lending rates (depending on the particular origination of borrowing), as further described in Note 9 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Our Hong Kong Credit Facility carries interest at a rate that is tied to the Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate. Our China Credit Facility carries interest at a rate that is tied to the People’s Bank of China’s Benchmark lending rate. Our Japan Credit Facility carries interest at a rate posted by the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group. Our Versace Credit Facility carries interest at a rate set by the bank on the date of borrowing that is tied to the European Central Bank. Therefore, our statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows are exposed to changes in those interest rates. At September 25, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, $644 million, net of debt issuance costs, outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility and no borrowings

50

outstanding under our Versace Credit Facilities. At March 27, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, $865 million, net of debt issuance costs, outstanding under our 2018 Term Loan Facility and no borrowings outstanding under our Versace Credit Facility. These balances are not indicative of future balances that may be outstanding under our revolving credit facilities that may be subject to fluctuations in interest rates. Any increases in the applicable interest rate(s) would cause an increase to the interest expense relative to any outstanding balance at that date.

Credit Risk

Our $450 million Senior Notes, due in 2024, bear interest at a fixed rate equal to 4.500% per year, payable semi-annually. Our Senior Notes interest rate payable may be subject to adjustments from time to time if either Moody’s or S&P (or a substitute rating agency), downgrades (or downgrades and subsequently upgrades) the credit rating assigned to the Senior Notes.

On an overall basis, our exposure to market risk has not significantly changed from what we reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The COVID-19 pandemic does present new and emerging uncertainty to the financial markets. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021 for additional information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 25, 2021. This evaluation was performed based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), the 2013 Framework. Based on this assessment, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 25, 2021 are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 25, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of our business. We believe that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 27, 2021, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. These risks are not the only risks that we face. Our business operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

(c) Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

During the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company reinstated its $500 million share repurchase program, which was previously suspended in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company also has in place a “withhold to cover” repurchase program, which allows the Company to withhold ordinary shares from certain executive officers and directors to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of their restricted share awards.

The following table provides information of the Company’s ordinary shares repurchased or withheld during the three months ended September 25, 2021:

	Total Number of Shares	Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Programs	Remaining Dollar Value of Shares That May Be Purchased Under the Programs (in millions)
