Tapestry (TPR) Stock Trades Down, Here Is Why

What Happened?

Shares of luxury fashion conglomerate Tapestry (NYSE:TPR) fell 13.9% in the morning session after the company reported mixed second-quarter results that included a significant miss on profitability. While the parent company of Coach and Kate Spade posted revenue of $1.72 billion, up 8.3% year-on-year and beating analyst estimates, it recorded a steep GAAP loss of $2.49 per share, falling well short of Wall Street's profit expectations. The loss was driven by a dramatic contraction in operating margin, a key measure of profitability, which swung to negative 33.9% from a positive 14.8% in the prior year's quarter. Although Tapestry's full-year guidance was viewed as solid, the severe miss on the bottom line and deteriorating margins in the reported quarter prompted a sharp sell-off in the stock.

The shares closed the day at $95.59, down 15.8% from previous close.
