Capri Holdings Ltd represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Capri Holdings Ltd receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 48.8/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2197 out of 7,333 stocks. CPRI's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
With a quality score of 51/100, CPRI shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of -375.0% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 62.3% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of -7.1% (sector avg: 1.0%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.
CPRI's value score of 63/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 21.32x, an EV/EBITDA of 9.45x, a P/B ratio of 24.44x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
Capri Holdings Ltd's investment score of 32/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of -5.0% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of -12.2% (sector: 0.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
CPRI is currently showing below-average momentum at 49/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at -5.0% year-over-year, while a beta of 2.23 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.
CPRI's stability score of 41/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of 2.23 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 217.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
CPRI carries a short interest score of 60/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 2.23), elevated leverage (D/E: 217.00x). At $2.4B market cap (mid-cap), Capri Holdings Ltd offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
Capri Holdings Ltd is a mid-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2197 of 7,333 overall (70th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -375.0% trailing the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of -10.4% below the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While CPRI currently exhibits a REDUCE profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
