Stocks That Hit 52-Week Lows On Friday

U.K.-based luxury goods retailer Burberry (LON: BRBY) (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/bbryf#OTC">BBRYF</a>) has rejected multiple takeover approaches from U.S. rival Coach Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/coh#NYSE">COH</a>) in recent months, according to a report on <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f406c50c-ba18-11e6-8b45-b8b81dd5d080">Financial Times</a>.
<h3>The Rumored Interest</h3>
The report said the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/16/12/8769215/wall-streets-m-a-chatter-from-december-2-4">deal</a> would have created a company with a market value in excess of above $20 billion, bringing together Coach&rsquo;s leather goods, handbags and shoemaker Stuart Weitzman with Burberry&rsquo;s trademark luxury outerwear and global retail footprint.
FT said <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/16/10/8538405/baird-prefers-carrying-coach-shares-following-handbag-su">Coach&rsquo;s </a>offers, which peaked sometime after the summer, were informal and comprised of a cash-and-stock acquisition of Burberry.
&ldquo;Talks are no longer active between the companies and that is not expected to change anytime soon after Burberry saw off the interest from its larger rival,&rdquo; the report highlighted.
<h3>Could It Have Succeeded Under Different Circumstances?</h3>
The report noted that Coach might have been more successful if had approached the British company earlier this year when Burberry shares were under pressure from a slowdown in luxury demand from Asia, questions over its leadership and fall in the pound over Brexit concerns.
FT added that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/16/11/8628872/coach-reports-mixed-results-for-q1"> Coach </a>was working with three investment banks, including Evercore Partners, on the deal. Burberry&rsquo;s advisers included the London-based advisory firm Robey Warshaw.
Shares of Coach closed Friday&rsquo;s trading at $36.23.

Reuters later <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/us-burberry-coach-idUSKCN12L1CB">argued</a> that its sourced had assured the companies &ldquo;are not in active merger talks,&rdquo; adding that the rumors were &ldquo;completely speculative.&rdquo; Moreover, Exane BNP Paribas analyst Luca Solca supplemented, &quot;a merger of Coach and Burberry would primarily be a merger of problems.&rdquo;

Investors should remember that both Coach and Burberry have been struggling to jump-start growth as luxury spending continues to decline.
To avoid further speculation, Benzinga contacted Coach. When Benzinga asked about the company&rsquo;s connection to acquisition rumors in Burberry and Michael Kors Holdings Ltd (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/kors#NYSE">KORS</a>) this week, a spokesperson said that Coach has a policy of not commenting on rumors.

Coach-Burberry Merger: Where The Rumors Came From And How They Got Shot Down

Coach Spokesperson Tells Benzinga It Has A Policy Of Not Commenting On Rumors, Regarding Its Connection To Acquisition Rumors In Michael Kors And Burberry This Week

Shares of Coach Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/coh#NYSE">COH</a>) were trading higher by nearly 4 percent early Friday morning following unconfirmed reports the fashion icon is being targeted for an acquisition by London-based Burberry Group (which trades (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/bbryf#OTC">BBRYF</a>) in addition to on the LON under ticker BRBY).
A <a href="https://www.betaville.co.uk/news/coach-and-blackstone-said-to-be-in-the-early-stages-on-evaluating-8-billion-burberry-bid-sources/">Betaville report</a> suggested that Coach is working with financial advisers on a combination with Burberry.
However, investors shouldn't rush to assume a deal will happen, at least not yet. Exane BNP Paribas' analyst Luca Solca was <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-10-21/burberry-shares-gain-after-report-coach-is-considering-merger">quoted by Bloomberg</a> as saying in a research note that a merger between Coach and Burberry "would primarily be a merger of problems" and "M&amp;A history in luxury has shown that mergers don't obviously help in regaining brand traction and desirability."

Both companies are struggling to spur growth at a time when luxury spending is decreasing. Bloomberg pointed out that both companies recently reshuffled their management roster in hopes of bringing in fresh blood that can reverse declining trends.
It is also important to note that <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-03-08/burberry-surges-on-speculation-trenchcoat-maker-may-attract-bid">reports surfaced earlier this year</a> that Burberry itself tapped advisers to prepare a defense against a possible bid for the company after an un-named investor acquired a 5 percent stake in the U.K.-fashion icon.
Burberry's London-listed stock (LON:BRBY) gained nearly 6 percent following the report.

Analyst: A Coach-Burberry Combination Would Be A 'Merger Of Problems'

The high-end UK-based fashion line Burberry (BURBERRY GROUP ORD GBP0.0005 (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/bbryf#OTC">BBRYF</a>) (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/burby#OTC">BURBY</a>) (LON: BRBY)) had a terrible year, as the company's pretax profit plunged 10 percent to £421 million ($612.41 million). The company's London-listed stock has lost more than 8 percent since the start of 2016, nearly 35 percent over the past year and is lower by more than 16 percent over a five-year period.
Burberry has seen sales in its key Asian market fall sharply. According to a report from <A href="http://money.cnn.com/2016/06/06/news/companies/burberry-ceo-huge-paycut/index.html?iid=SF_LN">CNN Money,</a> Chinese consumers "have been turning away from Burberry's trademark checked trench coats and other luxury goods" amid a slumping economy.
<bzrelatedlink>Related Link: <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/16/04/7840380/do-burberry-earnings-forecast-trouble-for-luxury-retailers">Do Burberry Earnings Forecast Trouble For Luxury Retailers?</a></bzrelatedlink>
At least the company's CEO, Christopher Bailey, is setting an example in how executives should act at a time when shareholders are seeing losses. Bailey received a pay of just £1.9 million for the year ending March 31, 2016, compared to his £7.5 million a year ago.
Bailey also serves as Burberry's chief creative officer.
Meanwhile, Burberry said none of its top executives will receive any sort of annual bonus this year. The move follows a "backlash" over executive compensation and was made to "appease investors" ahead of next month's annual general meeting of Burberry's shareholders.

Burberry CEO Takes 75% Pay Cut After Rough Year

Shares of Burberry (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="/stock/bbryf#OTC">BBRYF</a>) fell 19 percent on Tuesday, the biggest single-session drop since November 2008. Britain's maker of the iconic trench coat and other luxury goods said adjusted pretax profit through March will be at the lower end of analyst estimates.

The announcement may suggest that the demand for luxury products is finally feeling the effects of the global economic downturn, as the appetite for expensive goods declines.

Burberry said same-store sales in the 10 weeks prior to September 8 were flat compared with a year earlier. The slowdown in sales happened primarily in the last few weeks and was a result of global economics.

The company didn't specify the area most affected by the sales slowdown. But indicators point to weakening demand in Asia, which accounts for around 38% of the company's revenue. 

Asia, especially China, has been the greatest source of growth in the luxury category, but signs of a slowing Chinese economy have led analysts to forecast a softer market for luxury products.

Data from China released yesterday shows exports grew only 2.7% year-to-date, down dramatically from growth rates of more than 20% a year earlier, suggesting weak overseas economies, particularly in the Eurozone, are having a significant effect.
 
Burberry's rivals LVMH Moët Hennessy, Louis Vuitton SA and PPR SA also saw sharp declines, as traders may believe that they will face similar problems.

Burberry said its full-year adjusted pretax profit would be at the lower end of analyst expectations, which stand at between £407 million and £455 million, according to the company.

"As we stated in July, the external environment is becoming more challenging," said Chief Executive Angela Ahrendts. "In this context, second-quarter retail sales growth has slowed against historically high comparatives."
