Item 2.02: Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 23, 2007, Coach, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release
(the "Press Release") in which the Company announced its financial results for
its fiscal quarter ended September 29, 2007. All information in the press
release is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission and shall
not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to liability under that
section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly
set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
The attached press release includes the following Non-GAAP financial
information:
o Direct-to-consumer sales for Japan have been presented both including
and excluding currency fluctuation effects from translating Japanese
yen-denominated sales into U.S. dollars for the quarter and compared
to the same period in the prior fiscal year.
The Company believes that it is appropriate to present this supplemental
information, for the following reasons:
o Presenting information as described above will allow investors to
better understand the Company's operating and financial results and
how such results compare with the Company's prior guidance.
o Presenting Japan sales both including and excluding currency
fluctuation effects will help investors and analysts to understand the
increase in net sales over the prior-year period on a
constant-currency basis, a valuable measure of relative sales
performance in the Company's markets.
