(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Organization

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Coach, Inc. (“Coach” or the “Company”) and all 100% owned subsidiaries. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from this report as is permitted by SEC rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. This report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended June 30, 2012 (“fiscal 2012”).

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and changes in cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the quarter ended September 29, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year, which will end on June 29, 2013 (“fiscal 2013”).

Prior period segment data has been restated to reflect the Company’s revised reportable segment structure. See Note “Segment Information” for a discussion of the change in reportable segments.

2. Acquisitions

On July 1, 2012, Coach acquired 100% of its domestic retail business in Malaysia from the former distributor, Valiram Group, and on August 5, 2012, acquired 100% of its domestic retail business in Korea from the former distributor, Shinsegae International. The results of the acquired businesses have been included in the consolidated financial statements since July 1, 2012 and August 5, 2012, respectively, within the International segment. Prior to these acquisitions, Valiram Group operated ten retail stores in Malaysia and Shinsegae International operated 47 retail and department stores in Korea. These acquisitions provide the Company with greater control over the brand in Malaysia and Korea, enabling Coach to raise brand awareness and grow market share with regional consumers. The aggregate cash paid in connection with the acquisitions of the Malaysia and Korea businesses was $8,593 and $36,851, respectively, through September 29, 2012. The Company is obligated to make additional, contingent payments, estimated at $10,000 as of September 29, 2012, to Shinsegae International relating to the Korea acquisition. These payments are scheduled to be made through the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Management believes the strength of these established locations supported a premium above the fair value of the individual assets acquired. Unaudited pro forma information related to these acquisitions are not included, as the impact of these transactions are not material to the consolidated results of the Company.

4. Earnings Per Share

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and employee benefit and share awards.

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted-average shares outstanding and calculation of basic and diluted net income per share:

	Quarter Ended
	September 29,		October 1,
	2012		2011
Net income	$	221,381	$	214,983
Total weighted-average basic shares		284,569		289,778
Dilutive securities:
Employee benefit and share award plans		1,319		1,534
Stock option programs		2,609		4,756
Total weighted-average diluted shares		288,497		296,068
Net income per share:
Basic	$	0.78	$	0.74
Diluted	$	0.77	$	0.73

At September 29, 2012, options to purchase 2,149 shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as these options’ exercise prices, ranging from $57.47 to $78.46, were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

At October 1, 2011, options to purchase 2,067 shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as these options’ exercise prices, ranging from $59.97 to $66.76, were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

	Quarter Ended
	September 29,		October 1,
	2012		2011
Share-based compensation expense	$	28,533	$	24,606

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of share awards granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 was $55.71 and $61.03, respectively. The total fair value of shares vested during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 was $72,618 and $73,330, respectively.

6. Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” the Company categorizes its assets and liabilities, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Coach currently does not have any Level 1 financial assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the input used in pricing the asset or liability.

(unaudited)

The following table shows the fair value measurements of the Company’s assets and liabilities at September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012:

	Level 2				Level 3
	September 29,		June 30,		September 29,		June 30,
	2012		2012		2012		2012
Assets:
Long-term investment - auction rate security (a)	$	-	$	-	$	6,000	$	6,000
Derivative assets - zero-cost collar options (b)		67		971		-		-
Derivative assets - forward contracts and cross currency swaps (c)		20		488		-		-
Total	$	87	$	1,459	$	6,000	$	6,000
Liabilities:
Derivative liabilities - zero-cost collar options (b)	$	7,164	$	3,538	$	-	$	-
Derivative liabilities - forward contracts and cross currency swaps (c)		3,063		560		-		-
Total	$	10,227	$	4,098	$	-	$	-

^(a) The fair value of the security is determined using a valuation model that takes into consideration the financial conditions of the issuer and the bond insurer, current market conditions and the value of the collateral bonds.

^(b) The Company enters into zero-cost collar options to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulting from Coach Japan's and Coach Canada’s U.S. dollar-denominated inventory purchases. The fair value of these cash flow hedges is primarily based on the forward curves of the specific indices upon which settlement is based and includes an adjustment for the counterparty’s or Company’s credit risk.

^(c) The Company is a party to forward contracts and cross-currency swap transactions to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulting from fixed rate intercompany and related party loans. The fair value of these cash flow hedges is primarily based on the forward curves of the specific indices upon which settlement is based and includes an adjustment for the Company's credit risk.

As of September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the Company’s investments included an auction rate security (“ARS”), deemed a long-term investment classified within other assets, as the auction for this security has been unsuccessful. The underlying investments of the ARS are scheduled to mature in 2035. We have determined that the significant majority of the inputs used to value this security fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the inputs are based on unobservable estimates. The fair value of the Company’s ARS has been $6,000 since the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2009.

There were no derivatives classified as Level 3 at September 29, 2012 or June 30, 2012.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

At September 29, 2012, the Company had a $400,000 JP Morgan revolving credit facility in place, along with a separate $200,000 letter of credit arrangement.  Also as of that date, the Company had letters of credit totaling $179,951 outstanding.  These letters of credit, which expire at various dates through 2014, primarily collateralize the Company’s obligation to third parties for the purchase of inventory.

In the ordinary course of business, Coach is a party to several pending legal proceedings and claims. Although the outcome of such items cannot be determined with certainty, Coach’s General Counsel and management are of the opinion that the final outcome will not have a material effect on Coach’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Substantially all of the Company’s transactions involving international parties, excluding international consumer sales, are denominated in U.S. dollars, which limits the Company’s exposure to the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. However, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its foreign operating subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar-denominated inventory purchases and various cross-currency intercompany and related party loans. Coach uses derivative financial instruments to manage these risks. These derivative transactions are in accordance with the Company’s risk management policies. Coach does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

Our most significant businesses outside of the United States, Coach Japan and Coach Canada, enter into certain foreign currency derivative contracts, primarily zero-cost collar options, to manage the exchange rate risk related to their inventory purchases. As of September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, $283,382 and $310,891 of zero-cost collar options were outstanding, respectively.

As of September 29, 2012, the Company had entered into various intercompany and related party loans denominated in various foreign currencies, with a total notional value of approximately $272,001 and maturity dates ranging from November 2012 to July 2013. To manage the exchange rate risk related to these loans, the Company entered into forward exchange and cross-currency swap contracts, the terms of which include the exchange of foreign currency fixed interest for U.S. dollar fixed interest and an exchange of the foreign currency and U.S. dollar based notional values at the maturity dates, the latest of which is July 2013.

The Company’s derivative instruments are primarily designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of gains or losses on the derivative instruments are reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of gains or losses on the derivative instruments are recognized in current earnings and are included within net cash provided by operating activities.

10. Segment Information

Effective as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company has changed its reportable segments to a geographic focus, recognizing the expansion and growth of sales through its international markets. This is consistent with organizational changes implemented during fiscal 2012.

Prior to this change, the Company was organized and reported its results based on directly-operated and indirect business units. The Company has recently experienced substantial growth in its international business, while at the same time has converted formerly wholesale businesses in several key markets such as China, Taiwan and Korea to Company-operated businesses. Reflecting this growth and corresponding declines in indirect businesses relative to Company-operated, the Company implemented a realignment of its business units based on geography, aligning with the organizational changes.

As a result of these changes, as of the end of the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s operations now reflect five operating segments aggregated into two reportable segments:

· North America, which includes sales to consumers through North American Company-operated stores, including the Internet, and sales to North American wholesale customers and distributors.

· International, which includes sales to consumers through Company-operated stores in Japan, including the Internet, mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea and Malaysia, and sales to wholesale customers and distributors in over 20 countries. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the International segment will include Internet sales in China.

11. Stock Repurchase Program

Purchases of Coach’s common stock are made subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through the open market. Repurchased shares of common stock become authorized but unissued shares and may be issued in the future for general corporate and other purposes. The Company may terminate or limit the stock repurchase program at any time.

Coach accounts for stock repurchases and retirements by allocating the repurchase price to common stock, additional paid-in-capital and retained earnings. The repurchase price allocation is based upon the equity contribution associated with historical issuances, beginning with the earliest issuance. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, cumulative stock repurchases allocated to retained earnings resulted in an accumulated deficit balance. Since its initial public offering, the Company has not experienced a net loss in any fiscal year, and the net accumulated deficit balance in stockholders’ equity is attributable to the cumulative stock repurchase activity.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased and retired 3,093 and 1,067 shares, respectively, or $175,000 and $59,000 of common stock, respectively, at an average cost of $56.59 and $55.30 per share, respectively. As of September 29, 2012, Coach had $86,627 remaining in the stock repurchase program.

12. Subsequent Event

In October 2012, Coach’s Board of Directors authorized a new $1,500,000 stock repurchase program for future stock repurchases through June 2015.

13. Recent Accounting Developments

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income,” was amended in June 2011 to require entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendment does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income under current GAAP. This guidance was effective for the Company’s fiscal year and interim periods beginning July 1, 2012. The Company has adopted this amended guidance and presented the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

In September 2011, Accounting Standards Codification 350-20, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Goodwill,” was amended to allow entities to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired, and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. This guidance is effective for the Company’s goodwill impairment testing beginning in fiscal 2013. The Company does not expect its adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion of Coach’s financial condition and results of operations should be read together with Coach’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements, included elsewhere in this document. When used herein, the terms “Coach,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Coach, Inc., including consolidated subsidiaries.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Coach is a leading American marketer of fine accessories and gifts for women and men. Our product offerings include women’s and men’s bags, accessories, business cases, footwear, wearables, jewelry, sunwear, travel bags, watches and fragrance. Coach operates in two segments: North America and International. The North America segment includes sales to North American consumers through Coach-operated stores (including Internet sales) and sales to North American wholesale customers and distributors. The International segment includes sales to consumers through Coach-operated stores in Japan (including Internet sales), mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea, Malaysia and sales to wholesale customers and distributors in over 20 countries. As Coach’s business model is based on multi-channel global distribution, our success does not depend solely on the performance of a single channel or geographic area.

In order to sustain growth within our global business, we continue to focus on two key growth strategies: increased global distribution, with an emphasis on North America and China, and improved store sales productivity. To that end we are focused on four key initiatives:

· Grow our Women’s business in North America through the growing accessories market and by increasing our North American retail store base by opening stores in new markets and adding stores in under-penetrated existing markets. We believe that North America can support about 500 retail stores in total. We expect to open about 25 net new stores in fiscal 2013. The pace of our future retail store openings will depend upon the economic environment and will reflect opportunities in the marketplace. In addition, as part of our culture of innovation and continuous improvement, we have implemented a number of initiatives to accelerate the level of newness, elevate our product offering and enhance the in-store experience. These initiatives will enable us to maximize productivity and continue to leverage our leadership position in the market.

· Leverage the global opportunity for the Coach brand by raising brand awareness and building market share in markets where Coach is under-penetrated, most notably in Asia. China is our largest geographic growth opportunity, given the size of the market, its rate of growth, and our increasing brand awareness. We currently plan to open about 30 new locations in China during fiscal 2013, with the majority in mainland China. We will continue to expand market share with the Japanese consumer, driving growth in Japan primarily by opening new retail locations. We currently plan to open approximately 10 net new locations in Japan, most notably Men’s locations, during fiscal 2013. In addition to the acquisitions of our Singapore and Taiwan businesses during fiscal 2012, and consistent with our strategy of directly operating key Asian markets, we have acquired our domestic businesses in Korea and Malaysia during the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Outside of Asia, we are developing the brand opportunity as we expand into Europe, South America and Central America.

21

· Focus on the Men’s opportunity for the brand, notably in North America and Asia, while drawing on our long heritage in the category. We have implemented a number of initiatives to elevate our Men’s product offering through image-enhancing and accessible locations. We are leveraging the Men’s opportunity by opening new locations in both full-price and factory, and as a productivity driver with a broadened assortment, dual-gender stores and shop-in-shop store executions.

· Raise brand awareness and maximize e-commerce sales through our digital strategy. Key elements include coach.com, our global e-commerce sites, third-party flash sites, marketing sites and social networking. Our e-commerce programs include an invitation-only factory flash site targeted towards our most loyal Factory exclusive customers. The Company utilizes and continues to explore new technologies. Currently these include our global web presence, with 23 marketing websites in 24 countries, e-commerce enabled in the United States, Canada and Japan, along with social networking and blogs as cost-effective consumer communication opportunities to increase online and store sales.

We believe the growth strategies described above will allow us to deliver long-term superior returns on our investments and drive increased cash flows from operating activities. However, the current macroeconomic environment, while stabilizing, has created a challenging retail market in which consumers, notably in North America and Japan, are still cautious. The Company believes long-term growth can still be achieved through a combination of expanded distribution, a focus on innovation to support productivity and disciplined expense control. With a strong balance sheet and significant cash position, we have a business model that generates significant cash flow and we are in a position to invest in our brand while continuing to return capital to shareholders through common stock repurchases and dividends.

24

North America

Net sales increased 7.6% to $784.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from $728.6 million during the same period in fiscal 2012, primarily driven by a 5.5% increase in comparable store sales and sales from new and expanded stores, partially offset by decreased shipments into wholesale stores. Significant traffic improvement in the North American Internet business drove the comparable store sales increase, while factory stores benefitted from the return to in-store promotion. Since the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2012, Coach opened nine retail stores and 22 factory stores, including 11 Men’s, and expanded seven factory stores in North America.

International

Net sales increased 15.4% to $361.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from $313.6 million during the same period of fiscal 2012, primarily driven by sales from new and expanded stores and double-digit percentage growth in China comparable store sales. The results include net sales of the Company-operated Korea and Malaysia businesses, which were acquired in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, and the Taiwan business, acquired during the third quarter of fiscal 2012. Coach International Wholesale experienced strong shipment growth in the quarter, driven by expanded distribution. Since the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2012, International opened 45 new stores (excluding those acquired as a result of the acquisitions), with 31 net new stores in mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau and 14 net new stores in the other regions.

Operating Income

Operating income increased 3.0% to $331.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to $322.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Operating margin decreased to 28.6% as compared to 30.7% in the same period of the prior year.

Gross profit increased 10.5% to $845.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from $764.7 million during the same period of fiscal 2012. Gross margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was equal to the same period of fiscal 2012 at 72.8%, despite the impact of the higher cost of inventory in connection with the acquisitions.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 16.0% to $513.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to $442.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, driven primarily by increased selling expenses in connection with the Korea, Malaysia and Taiwan business acquisitions. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 44.2% during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to 42.1% during the first quarter of fiscal 2012, reflecting investment in our growing international businesses.

Selling expenses were $353.1 million, or 30.4% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $303.5 million, or 28.9% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The dollar increase in selling expenses was due to higher operating expenses in International and North American stores due to higher sales and new store openings. International selling expenses overall increased as a percentage of sales, due to the acquisitions of the Korea, Malaysia and Taiwan businesses and infrastructure investments to support Asia. China store expenses as a percentage of sales decreased primarily due to operating efficiencies and sales leverage.

25

Advertising, marketing, and design costs were $70.0 million, or 6.0% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to $57.8 million, or 5.5% of net sales, during the same period of fiscal 2012. The increase was primarily due to creative and design expenditures and marketing expenses related to consumer communications, which includes our digital strategy through coach.com, the launch of our Legacy line, marketing sites and social networking. The Company utilizes and continues to explore implementing new technologies such as our global web presence, with informational websites in 24 countries, social networking and blogs as cost-effective consumer communication opportunities to increase on-line and store sales and build brand awareness. Also contributing to the increase were new design expenditures and development costs for new merchandising initiatives.

Distribution and consumer service expenses were $19.5 million, or 1.7% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to $15.4 million, or 1.5% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Administrative expenses were $70.7 million, or 6.1% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $66.0 million, or 6.3% of net sales, during the same period of fiscal 2012, as the Company leveraged administrative expenses over the increased sales base. The dollar increase in fiscal 2013 reflects higher equity compensation and systems investment.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 32.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, which is in line with the 32.9% effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Net Income

Net income was $221.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to $215.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. This increase was primarily due to the improvement in operating income.

26

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flow

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents decreased $156.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared to an increase of $145.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The $302.4 million period over period decrease is primarily the result of investing and financing activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $202.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $225.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease of $22.8 million was primarily due to certain working capital changes between periods, as well as the timing of certain deferred income tax items. Changes during the period in other asset balances resulted in a use of cash of $23.3 million, compared to a source of cash of $7.2 million in the prior fiscal period, driven primarily by the timing of certain deposits relating to store operations. Similarly, changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities balances resulted in a net use of cash of $1.1 million, compared to a net cash source of $25.9 million in the prior fiscal period, with the change driven primarily by the timing of expenses. These changes were partially offset by a $30.5 million lower cash outflow for inventory in the current period as compared to the prior fiscal period, driven by lower inventory balances at the end of fiscal 2011 as compared to fiscal 2012.

Net cash used in investing activities was $101.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to $38.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, with the increase of $63.2 million driven by acquisitions and higher planned capital investment. During fiscal 2013, the Company acquired 100% of its domestic retail businesses in Korea and Malaysia from the former distributors for an aggregate $45.4 million in cash. Purchases of property and equipment were $56.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, which was $25.4 million higher than the first quarter of fiscal 2012, reflecting planned increased capital investment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $257.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared to $42.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase of $215.2 million was primarily attributable to $116.0 million of increased expenditures for common stock repurchases, $69.2 million lower net proceeds from share-based awards, net of taxes paid, and $20.5 million of higher dividend payments, due to the higher dividend rate in the current fiscal period.

Revolving Credit Facilities

On June 18, 2012, the Company terminated its existing revolving credit facility and replaced it with a new, $400 million revolving credit facility with certain lenders and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the primary lender and administrative agent (the “JP Morgan facility”). The JP Morgan facility is available to finance the seasonal working capital requirements or general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries, may be prepaid without penalty or premium, and expires in June 2017. At Coach’s request and lenders’ consent, revolving commitments of the JP Morgan facility may be expanded to $650 million. As of September 29, 2012, there were no outstanding borrowings on the JP Morgan facility.

Borrowings under the JP Morgan Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at Coach’s option, either (a) an alternate base rate or (b) a rate based on the rates applicable for deposits in the interbank market for U.S. dollars or the applicable currency in which the loans are made (the “Adjusted LIBO Rate”) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for Adjusted LIBO Rate loans will be adjusted by reference to a grid (the “Pricing Grid”) based on the ratio of (a) consolidated debt plus 800% of consolidated lease expense to (b) consolidated EBITDAR (“Leverage Ratio”). Additionally, Coach will pay a commitment fee, calculated at a rate per annum determined in accordance with the Pricing Grid, on the average daily unused amount of the JP Morgan Facility, and certain fees with respect to letters of credit that are issued. At September 29, 2012, the commitment fee was nine basis points.

27

The JP Morgan facility contains various covenants and customary events of default. Coach has been in compliance with all covenants of the facility since its inception.

As of September 29, 2012, Coach Japan had credit facilities with several Japanese financial institutions to provide funding for working capital and general corporate purposes, allowing a maximum borrowing of 6.0 billion yen, or approximately $77 million, as of September 29, 2012. Interest is based on the Tokyo Interbank rate plus a margin of 25 to 30 basis points. During fiscal 2012 and through the first quarter of fiscal 2013, there were no borrowings under these facilities.

As of September 29, 2012, Coach Shanghai Limited had a credit facility to provide funding for working capital and general corporate purposes, allowing a maximum borrowing of 63 million Chinese renminbi, or approximately $10 million, as of September 29, 2012. Interest is based on the People's Bank of China rate. During fiscal 2012 and through the first quarter of fiscal 2013, there were no borrowings under this facility.

Both the Coach Japan and Coach Shanghai Limited credit facilities can be terminated at any time by the respective financial institutions, and there is no guarantee that they will be available to the Company in future periods.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

In January 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a common stock repurchase program to acquire up to $1.5 billion of Coach’s outstanding common stock through June 2013. Purchases of Coach common stock are made subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases. Repurchased shares become authorized but unissued shares and may be issued in the future for general corporate and other uses. The Company may terminate or limit the stock repurchase program at any time.

During the first three months of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased and retired 3.1 million and 1.1 million shares respectively, or $175.0 million and $59.0 million of common stock, respectively, at an average cost of $56.59 and $55.30 per share, respectively. As of September 29, 2012, Coach had $86.6 million remaining in the stock repurchase program.

In October 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a new $1.5 billion stock repurchase program for future stock repurchases through June 2015.

Capital Expenditures and Working Capital

The Company expects total capital expenditures for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013 to be approximately $250 million. Capital expenditures will be primarily for new stores in North America, Japan, and Asia. We will also continue to invest in corporate infrastructure and department store and distributor locations. These investments will be financed primarily from cash on hand and operating cash flows.

28

Coach experiences significant seasonal variations in its working capital requirements. During the first fiscal quarter Coach builds inventory for the holiday selling season, opens new retail stores and generates higher levels of trade receivables. In the second fiscal quarter, working capital requirements are reduced substantially as Coach generates greater consumer sales and collects wholesale accounts receivable. During the first three months fiscal 2013, Coach purchased approximately $410 million of inventory, which was funded by operating cash flow.

Management believes that cash flow from continuing operations and on hand cash will provide adequate funds for the foreseeable working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, dividend payments and the common stock repurchase program. Any future acquisitions, joint ventures or other similar transactions may require additional capital. There can be no assurance that any such capital will be available to Coach on acceptable terms or at all. Coach’s ability to fund its working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, dividend payments and scheduled debt payments, as well as to comply with all of the financial covenants under its debt agreements, depends on its future operating performance and cash flow, which in turn are subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond Coach’s control.

Reference should be made to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding liquidity and capital resources.

Seasonality

Because Coach products are frequently given as gifts, Coach has historically realized, and expects to continue to realize, higher sales and operating income in the second quarter of its fiscal year, which includes the holiday months of November and December. In addition, fluctuations in sales and operating income in any fiscal quarter are affected by the timing of seasonal wholesale shipments and other events affecting retail sales. Over the past several years, we have achieved higher levels of growth in the non-holiday quarters, which has reduced these seasonal fluctuations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our discussion of results of operations and financial condition relies on our consolidated financial statements that are prepared based on certain critical accounting policies that require management to make judgments and estimates that are subject to varying degrees of uncertainty. We believe that investors need to be aware of these policies and how they impact our financial statements as a whole, as well as our related discussion and analysis presented herein. While we believe that these accounting policies are based on sound measurement criteria, actual future events can and often do result in outcomes that can be materially different from these estimates or forecasts. The accounting policies and related risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of September 29, 2012, there have been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein.

Recent Accounting Developments

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income,” was amended in June 2011 to require entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendment does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income under current GAAP. This guidance was effective for the Company’s fiscal year and interim periods beginning July 1, 2012. The Company has adopted this amended guidance and presented the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

In September 2011, Accounting Standards Codification 350-20, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Goodwill,” was amended to allow entities to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired, and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. This guidance is effective for the Company’s goodwill impairment testing beginning in fiscal 2013. The Company does not expect its adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

30

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Coach operates in foreign countries, which exposes the Company to market risk associated with foreign exchange rate fluctuations. In addition, the Company’s financial instruments are subject to market risk arising from interest rate fluctuations. This inherent market risk, which represents potential loss in fair value, earnings or cash flows, arises from adverse changes in these foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates. Coach manages these exposures through operating and financing activities and, when appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The use of derivative financial instruments is in accordance with Coach’s risk management policies. Coach does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

The following quantitative disclosures are based on quoted market prices obtained through independent pricing sources for the same or similar types of financial instruments, taking into consideration the underlying terms and maturities and theoretical pricing models. These quantitative disclosures do not represent the maximum possible loss or any expected loss that may occur, since actual results may differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currency Exchange

Foreign currency exposures arise from transactions, including firm commitments and anticipated contracts, denominated in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency, and from foreign-denominated revenues and expenses translated into U.S. dollars.

Substantially all of Coach’s fiscal 2013 non-licensed product needs are purchased from independent manufacturers in countries other than the United States, including China, Vietnam, India, Philippines, Thailand, Italy, Bangladesh, Taiwan, Colombia, Turkey, Malaysia, Ecuador, Great Britain and Pakistan. Additionally, sales are made through international channels to third party distributors. Substantially all purchases and sales involving international parties, excluding international consumer sales, are denominated in U.S. dollars and, therefore, are not subject to foreign currency exchange risk.

Coach is exposed to market risk from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulting from its foreign operating subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar denominated inventory purchases. Coach Japan and Coach Canada enter into certain foreign currency derivative contracts, primarily zero-cost collar options, to manage these risks. As of September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, open foreign currency forward contracts designated as hedges with a notional amount of $283.4 million and $310.9 million, respectively, were outstanding.

Coach is also exposed to market risk from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations with respect to various cross-currency intercompany and related party loans. These loans are denominated in various foreign currencies, with a total notional value of approximately $272 million and $207 million as of September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. To manage the exchange rate risk related to these loans, the Company entered into forward exchange and cross-currency swap contracts, the terms of which include the exchange of foreign currency fixed interest for U.S. dollar fixed interest and an exchange of the foreign currency and U.S. dollar based notional values at the maturity dates of the contracts, the latest of which is July 2013.

The fair value of open foreign currency derivatives included in current assets at September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012 was $0.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The fair value of open foreign currency derivatives included in current liabilities at September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012 was $10.2 million and $4.1 million, respectively. The fair value of these contracts is sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

31

Coach believes that exposure to adverse changes in exchange rates associated with revenues and expenses of foreign operations, which are denominated in Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi, Hong Kong dollar, Macanese pataca, Canadian dollar, Singapore dollar, Taiwan dollar, Malaysian ringgit, Korean won and the euro, are not sufficiently material to warrant a hedging program.

Interest Rate

Coach is exposed to interest rate risk in relation to its investments, revolving credit facilities and long-term debt.

The Company’s investment portfolio is maintained in accordance with the Company’s investment policy, which identifies allowable investments, specifies credit quality standards and limits the credit exposure of any single issuer. The primary objective of our investment activities is the preservation of principal while maximizing interest income and minimizing risk. We do not hold any investments for trading purposes. The Company’s investment portfolio primarily consists of U.S. government and agency securities as well as corporate debt securities. As the Company does not have the intent to sell and will not be required to sell these securities until maturity, investments are classified as held-to-maturity and stated at amortized cost, except for auction rate securities, which are classified as available-for-sale. At September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the Company’s investments, classified as available-for-sale, consisted of a $6.0 million auction rate security. At both September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, as the auction rate securities’ adjusted book value equaled its fair value, there were no unrealized gains or losses associated with this investment.

As of September 29, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on its JP Morgan facility, the Coach Japan credit facility, and the Coach Shanghai Limited credit facility. The fair value of any future borrowing may be impacted by fluctuations in interest rates.

As of June 30, 2012, Coach’s outstanding long-term debt, including the current portion, was $23.3 million. A hypothetical 10% change in the interest rate applied to the fair value of debt would not have a material impact on earnings or cash flows of Coach.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Based on the evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, each of Lew Frankfort, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Jane Nielsen, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of September 29, 2012.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Reference should be made to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding discussion of the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

Coach is involved in various routine legal proceedings as both plaintiff and defendant incident to the ordinary course of its business, including proceedings to protect Coach’s intellectual property rights, litigation instituted by persons alleged to have been injured upon premises within Coach’s control and litigation with present or former employees.

As part of Coach’s policing program for its intellectual property rights, from time to time, Coach files lawsuits in the U.S. and abroad alleging acts of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, patent infringement, trade dress infringement, trademark dilution and/or state or foreign law claims. At any given point in time, Coach may have a number of such actions pending. These actions often result in seizure of counterfeit merchandise and/or out of court settlements with defendants. From time to time, defendants will raise, either as affirmative defenses or as counterclaims, the invalidity or unenforceability of certain of Coach’s intellectual properties.

Although Coach’s litigation with present or former employees is routine and incidental to the conduct of Coach’s business, as well as for any business employing significant numbers of employees, such litigation can result in large monetary awards when a civil jury is allowed to determine compensatory and/or punitive damages for actions claiming discrimination on the basis of age, gender, race, religion, disability or other legally protected characteristic or for termination of employment that is wrongful or in violation of implied contracts.

Coach believes that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on Coach’s business or consolidated financial statements.

Coach has not entered into any transactions that have been identified by the IRS as abusive or that have a significant tax avoidance purpose. Accordingly, we have not been required to pay a penalty to the IRS for failing to make disclosures required with respect to certain transactions that have been identified by the IRS as abusive or that have a significant tax avoidance purpose.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

There are no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

2. Acquisitions

On July 1, 2012, Coach acquired 100% of its domestic retail business in Malaysia from the former distributor, Valiram Group, and on August 5, 2012, acquired 100% of its domestic retail business in Korea from the former distributor, Shinsegae International. The results of the acquired businesses have been included in the consolidated financial statements since July 1, 2012 and August 5, 2012, respectively, within the International segment. Prior to these acquisitions, Valiram Group operated ten retail stores in Malaysia and Shinsegae International operated 47 retail and department stores in Korea. These acquisitions provide the Company with greater control over the brand in Malaysia and Korea, enabling Coach to raise brand awareness and grow market share with regional consumers. The aggregate cash paid in connection with the acquisitions of the Malaysia and Korea businesses was $8,593 and $36,851, respectively, through September 29, 2012. The Company is obligated to make additional, contingent payments, estimated at $10,000 as of September 29, 2012, to Shinsegae International relating to the Korea acquisition. These payments are scheduled to be made through the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Management believes the strength of these established locations supported a premium above the fair value of the individual assets acquired. Unaudited pro forma information related to these acquisitions are not included, as the impact of these transactions are not material to the consolidated results of the Company.

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired as of the date of acquisition:

Assets Acquired	Preliminary Estimated Fair Value
Current assets	$	21,448
Fixed assets and other non-current assets		2,351
Goodwill (1)		31,645
Total assets acquired	$	55,444
Contingent payments		(10,000	)
Total cash paid through September 29, 2012	$	45,444

⁽¹⁾ We anticipate approximately $30,000 of the goodwill balance to be tax deductible over an estimated period of five years.

Segment Information

10. Segment Information

Effective as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company has changed its reportable segments to a geographic focus, recognizing the expansion and growth of sales through its international markets. This is consistent with organizational changes implemented during fiscal 2012.

Prior to this change, the Company was organized and reported its results based on directly-operated and indirect business units. The Company has recently experienced substantial growth in its international business, while at the same time has converted formerly wholesale businesses in several key markets such as China, Taiwan and Korea to Company-operated businesses. Reflecting this growth and corresponding declines in indirect businesses relative to Company-operated, the Company implemented a realignment of its business units based on geography, aligning with the organizational changes.

As a result of these changes, as of the end of the Company’s first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s operations now reflect five operating segments aggregated into two reportable segments:

· North America, which includes sales to consumers through North American Company-operated stores, including the Internet, and sales to North American wholesale customers and distributors.

· International, which includes sales to consumers through Company-operated stores in Japan, including the Internet, mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea and Malaysia, and sales to wholesale customers and distributors in over 20 countries. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the International segment will include Internet sales in China.

Stock Repurchase Program

Stock Repurchase Program

11. Stock Repurchase Program

Purchases of Coach’s common stock are made subject to market conditions and at prevailing market prices, through the open market. Repurchased shares of common stock become authorized but unissued shares and may be issued in the future for general corporate and other purposes. The Company may terminate or limit the stock repurchase program at any time.

Coach accounts for stock repurchases and retirements by allocating the repurchase price to common stock, additional paid-in-capital and retained earnings. The repurchase price allocation is based upon the equity contribution associated with historical issuances, beginning with the earliest issuance. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, cumulative stock repurchases allocated to retained earnings resulted in an accumulated deficit balance. Since its initial public offering, the Company has not experienced a net loss in any fiscal year, and the net accumulated deficit balance in stockholders’ equity is attributable to the cumulative stock repurchase activity.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased and retired 3,093 and 1,067 shares, respectively, or $175,000 and $59,000 of common stock, respectively, at an average cost of $56.59 and $55.30 per share, respectively. As of September 29, 2012, Coach had $86,627 remaining in the stock repurchase program.

Earnings Per Share

4. Earnings Per Share

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and employee benefit and share awards.

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted-average shares outstanding and calculation of basic and diluted net income per share:

	Quarter Ended
	September 29,		October 1,
	2012		2011
Net income	$	221,381	$	214,983
Total weighted-average basic shares		284,569		289,778
Dilutive securities:

Total weighted-average diluted shares		288,497		296,068
Net income per share:
Basic	$	0.78	$	0.74
Diluted	$	0.77	$	0.73

At September 29, 2012, options to purchase 2,149 shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as these options’ exercise prices, ranging from $57.47 to $78.46, were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

At October 1, 2011, options to purchase 2,067 shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as these options’ exercise prices, ranging from $59.97 to $66.76, were greater than the average market price of the common shares.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

8. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Substantially all of the Company’s transactions involving international parties, excluding international consumer sales, are denominated in U.S. dollars, which limits the Company’s exposure to the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. However, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its foreign operating subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar-denominated inventory purchases and various cross-currency intercompany and related party loans. Coach uses derivative financial instruments to manage these risks. These derivative transactions are in accordance with the Company’s risk management policies. Coach does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

Our most significant businesses outside of the United States, Coach Japan and Coach Canada, enter into certain foreign currency derivative contracts, primarily zero-cost collar options, to manage the exchange rate risk related to their inventory purchases. As of September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, $283,382 and $310,891 of zero-cost collar options were outstanding, respectively.

As of September 29, 2012, the Company had entered into various intercompany and related party loans denominated in various foreign currencies, with a total notional value of approximately $272,001 and maturity dates ranging from November 2012 to July 2013. To manage the exchange rate risk related to these loans, the Company entered into forward exchange and cross-currency swap contracts, the terms of which include the exchange of foreign currency fixed interest for U.S. dollar fixed interest and an exchange of the foreign currency and U.S. dollar based notional values at the maturity dates, the latest of which is July 2013.

The Company’s derivative instruments are primarily designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of gains or losses on the derivative instruments are reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of gains or losses on the derivative instruments are recognized in current earnings and are included within net cash provided by operating activities.

The following tables provide information related to the Company’s derivatives:

		Fair Value
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments	Balance Sheet Classification	At September 29, 2012		At June 30, 2012
Foreign exchange contracts	Other Current Assets	$	87	$	1,459
Total derivative assets		$	87	$	1,459

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, the amounts above are net of tax of $1,999 and $2,469, respectively.

During the three months ended September 29, 2012 and October 1, 2011, there were no material gains or losses recognized in income due to hedge ineffectiveness.

The Company expects that $8,294 of net derivative losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income at September 29, 2012 will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. This amount will vary due to fluctuations in the Japanese yen and Canadian dollar exchange rates.

Fair Value Measurements

6. Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” the Company categorizes its assets and liabilities, based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as set forth below. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Coach currently does not have any Level 1 financial assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in non-active markets, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the input used in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table shows the fair value measurements of the Company’s assets and liabilities at September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012:

	Level 2				Level 3
	September 29,		June 30,		September 29,		June 30,
	2012		2012		2012		2012
Assets:
Long-term investment - auction rate security (a)	$	-	$	-	$	6,000	$	6,000
Derivative assets - zero-cost collar options (b)		67		971		-		-
Derivative assets - forward contracts and cross currency swaps (c)		20		488		-		-
Total	$	87	$	1,459	$	6,000	$	6,000
Liabilities:
Derivative liabilities - zero-cost collar options (b)	$	7,164	$	3,538	$	-	$	-
Derivative liabilities - forward contracts and cross currency swaps (c)		3,063		560		-		-
Total	$	10,227	$	4,098	$	-	$	-

^(a) The fair value of the security is determined using a valuation model that takes into consideration the financial conditions of the issuer and the bond insurer, current market conditions and the value of the collateral bonds.

^(b) The Company enters into zero-cost collar options to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulting from Coach Japan's and Coach Canada’s U.S. dollar-denominated inventory purchases. The fair value of these cash flow hedges is primarily based on the forward curves of the specific indices upon which settlement is based and includes an adjustment for the counterparty’s or Company’s credit risk.

^(c) The Company is a party to forward contracts and cross-currency swap transactions to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations resulting from fixed rate intercompany and related party loans. The fair value of these cash flow hedges is primarily based on the forward curves of the specific indices upon which settlement is based and includes an adjustment for the Company's credit risk.

As of September 29, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the Company’s investments included an auction rate security (“ARS”), deemed a long-term investment classified within other assets, as the auction for this security has been unsuccessful. The underlying investments of the ARS are scheduled to mature in 2035. We have determined that the significant majority of the inputs used to value this security fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the inputs are based on unobservable estimates. The fair value of the Company’s ARS has been $6,000 since the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2009.

There were no derivatives classified as Level 3 at September 29, 2012 or June 30, 2012.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income,” was amended in June 2011 to require entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendment does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income under current GAAP. This guidance was effective for the Company’s fiscal year and interim periods beginning July 1, 2012. The Company has adopted this amended guidance and presented the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

In September 2011, Accounting Standards Codification 350-20, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Goodwill,” was amended to allow entities to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired, and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. This guidance is effective for the Company’s goodwill impairment testing beginning in fiscal 2013. The Company does not expect its adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
