Prada CEO Gianfranco D'Attis to step down at end of June
Italian luxury fashion house Prada SpA has announced that CEO Gianfranco D'Attis will leave the company at the end of June. According to a company statement shared with Reuters, the decision was made by mutual agreement. In the interim, Prada Group CEO Andrea Guerra will assume the role of acting CEO until a permanent replacement is named. The news was initially reported by WWD, a well-known fashion industry publication. D'Attis' departure marks a significant leadership change for the Milan-based brand, which has been expanding its global footprint and reinforcing its presence in key markets such as the U.S. and Asia. Prada did not disclose further details about the reasons behind the transition. The change in leadership comes at a time when European luxury fashion labels are facing challenges tied to shifting global demand and evolving trade dynamics. Earlier this year, discussions around potential tariffs on EU goods, including fashion, intensified following comments from U.S. political figures. D'Attis, who had been with Prada since 2023, oversaw several initiatives tied to retail innovation and international growth. His exit adds to the list of recent executive shakeups within the high-end fashion industry. Prada (1913.F) closed trading slightly higher on Friday, but markets may react to the news in the coming week.

Capri holdings slides deeper into loss zone in fourth quarter
The US fashion group Capri Holdings Limited also suffered significant sales losses in the fourth quarter of the 2024/25 financial year. In addition, the group reported a significantly higher loss. However, the figures, which the company published on Wednesday, were not quite as bad as analysts had expected in the run-up. The current quarterly report still includes the results of the Versace brand, the acquisition of which by the Italian fashion group Prada SpA is to be completed in the second half of the year. In mid-April, both companies agreed that the Prada Group would acquire the fashion house for around 1.37 billion dollars. Group sales fall by around 15 percent In the fourth quarter, which ended on March 29, Capri's group sales amounted to around 1.03 billion dollars. This corresponded to a decrease of 15.4 percent compared to the same period last year. Adjusted for exchange rate changes, revenues shrank by 14.1 percent. The significant decrease was due to losses at all group brands. Michael Kors' sales fell by 15.6 percent (currency-adjusted -14.4 percent) to 694 million dollars, while Jimmy Choo's revenues fell by 2.9 percent (currency-adjusted 1.5 percent) to 133 million dollars. Versace suffered a minus of 21.2 percent (currency-adjusted -19.7 percent) to 208 million dollars. Due to significantly lower costs, the group was able to reduce its operating loss, which had been 543 million dollars in the same quarter last year, to 116 million dollars. However, the net loss attributable to shareholders grew by 37 percent to 645 million dollars due to higher tax charges. Adjusted for special effects, the corresponding deficit was 581 million dollars, after an adjusted net profit of 50 million dollars had been recorded in the same quarter last year. Net loss for the full financial year amounts to more than one billion dollars Group sales for the full financial year were 4.44 billion dollars, a decrease of 14.1 percent compared to the previous year. The reported net loss of around 1.18 billion dollars was more than five times as high as in the previous year, when it was 229 million dollars. The group also published an initial outlook for the current 2025/26 financial year, which no longer includes Versace's results. According to this, management expects annual sales in the range of 3.3 to 3.4 billion dollars, an operating profit of approximately 100 million dollars and diluted earnings per share of between 1.20 and 1.40 dollars. Chief executive officer John Idol looks to future with 'optimism' Chairman and chief executive officer John Idol was confident about the future: 'The 2024/25 financial year was a difficult year for Capri Holdings, but as we start the 2025/26 financial year, we are optimistic about our future path,' he said in a statement. Despite the uncertainties arising from the development of global tariffs, the group will focus on its new strategic measures, which should lead to future growth. The company is still in an 'early phase' of its turnaround, but can already see 'positive signs' of the effectiveness of the strategy, Idol emphasised.

Net revenue for the group rose 13% at constant currencies in the first quarter, the Hong Kong-listed company said Wednesday, just beating analyst estimates. Retail sales at Miu Miu, particularly popular among younger customers, grew 60% from a year earlier.

Billionaire Prada Clan Succession Plan Bolstered by Versace Deal
By and Luca Casiraghi Save For decades, the fiercely independent Prada SpA Chairman Patrizio Bertelli talked about the need for Italian fashion houses to acquire size and scale to take on sprawling industry behemoths like LVMH and Kering SA and also avoid being gobbled up by them. And yet his efforts to add heft to the Milan-based company he controls with his wife Miuccia Prada through an acquisition binge in the late 1990s left the group saddled with more than €1 billion ($1.13 billion) in debt and later forced the couple to seek help from Italian banks to prevent losing control.
