Strong 3Q for Tapestry Accentuated by Profitable Growth at Kate Spade; Shares Still a Deal

While shares jumped high single digits on third-quarter results, we do not plan to alter our $45 fair value estimate for narrow-moat Tapestry and still see shares as an attractive investment. Sales grew 1% on a 10.6% adjusted operating margin for the quarter versus our 1% and 13.4% quarterly estimates, with increased brand spending at Kate Spade crimping operating margin. We see this spending as prudent as the firm revamps the brand image and shifts the merchandise to higher-price points.
