Tapestry (TPR; Baa2, BBB+; double Neg)

CONSUMER CYCLICALS

View unch on €25s as only line screening cheap. No change in TPR mgmt's confidence to close deal in earnings yesterday, Capri equities traded flat through it still pricing (est.) 70% chance of failure.

  • Breakeven dates on current BVAL offer side below. Table may look merry but we'd caution it's on yield/total returns - sensible to look at given call option/px sensitivity - but leaves one unhedged to rates/the FV yield on deal closing - i.e. rates sell-offs may eat into the upside but does have protection from the call price option.
  • We refrain from a 27s screen cheap view for now - probability weighted return is not great (well -ve in excess returns terms) but it may screen attractive for investors who don't mind leaving BS exposed to 0/flat returns over next 4-6months.
  • Second graph is from other day (px little changed) and shows early sept. forced call - note though we see that as earliest risk currently, actual call may come earlier - another reason to keep an eye on Capri earnings coming this month.
