Michael Kors Holdings Limited (KORS), a global luxury lifestyle company, came out with fourth-quarter fiscal 2015 results, wherein earnings of 96 cents per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 90 cents, and surged from 78 cents in the prior-year quarter.

Management now projects first-quarter fiscal 2016 earnings in the range of 74 cents to 78 cents a share, which falls short of the current Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.03 per share.

Earnings Estimate Revision: The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2015 has been portraying a downtrend in the last 30 days. In the trailing four quarters (including the quarter under review), the company outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by an average of 10.8%.

Revenues: Michael Kors generated total revenue of $1,081 million that increased 17.8% year over year, and also came slightly ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,078.6 million.
