Tapestry (TPR) Could Be 33% Undervalued After FTSE Entry And Google AI Rollout

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Tapestry (TPR) just picked up a new seat in the FTSE All-World Index, shortly after plugging its Coach and Kate Spade brands into Google's AI-powered shopping and checkout ecosystem.

Those index and AI-commerce headlines arrive after a choppy stretch for Tapestry, with the share price giving up ground over the past month and quarter even as the 1-year total shareholder return sits at 5.35% and the 3-year total shareholder return is more than 3x. This combination suggests strong longer term compounding but fading near term momentum as investors reassess how much of the growth and risk story is already priced in at the current US$112.12 level.

Tapestry now combines index inclusion, AI commerce roll out and a long run of total returns that are already very strong. Does the recent pullback leave meaningful upside ahead, or was most of the opportunity captured earlier?

Most Popular Narrative: 33% Undervalued

Tapestry’s most followed thesis pegs fair value at $166.50 against the recent $112.12 close. This points to a sizeable valuation gap that rests heavily on how well direct-to-consumer economics and brand repair efforts play out over the next few years.

The main priority is successfully turning Kate Spade from a period of declining sales and expected operating losses into a brand that contributes sustainably to group earnings.

The multi-year effort to stabilize and then grow Kate Spade, including new creative and marketing leadership despite recent revenue declines and an expected operating loss, leaves scope for earnings improvement if the brand returns to sustainable growth and contributes positively to group margins.

See why 27 investors see Tapestry as 33% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of $166.50 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, the Tapestry story can be knocked off course if the Kate Spade turnaround stalls or if tariffs and duties squeeze margins harder than analysts expect.
