Key Financial Metrics and Non-GAAP Adjustments
The filing references a press release containing financial results but does not explicitly state the specific numerical values for revenue, profit, cash flow, or debt within the text of this 8-K. The document details the presentation of Non-GAAP financial metrics adjusted for "One-time Items," which include:
- Charges related to reducing U.S. corporate staffing levels.

- Closure of the sample-making facility in Italy.
Metrics Presented (GAAP and Non-GAAP):
- Net income and earnings per share (quarter and nine months).
- Operating income and operating margin (quarter).

- Coach Japan, Inc. sales (quarter and nine months), presented with and without currency fluctuation effects.
Material Changes and Unusual Items
One-time Charges: The current quarter includes charges from the One-time Items listed above. Management notes these items reduced year-over-year income and earnings per share but are intended to generate significant savings in the next fiscal year.
Currency Impact: Significant year-over-year currency fluctuations affected Coach Japan sales, necessitating the presentation of data excluding these effects to clarify performance trends.
Guidance, Outlook, and Corporate Actions
Dividend Declaration: The Board of Directors voted to initiate a cash dividend at an annual rate of $0.30 per share.
Payment Details: The first quarterly payment of $0.075 per share is scheduled for June 29, 2009, to stockholders of record as of June 8, 2009.
Outlook: Management expects the restructuring actions (One-time Items) to result in significant cost savings in the upcoming fiscal year. No specific numerical revenue or earnings guidance is provided in this text.
