operating results to facilitate comparisons of our operating results and trends in our business, excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations. because we are a global company, foreign currency exchange rates may have a significant effect on our reported results. we calculate constant currency measures and the related foreign currency impacts by translating the current year’s reported amounts into comparable amounts using prior year’s foreign exchange rates for each currency. all constant currency performance measures discussed below should be considered a supplement to and not in lieu of our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with u.s. gaap. additionally, this earnings release includes certain non-gaap financial measures that exclude certain costs associated with covid-19 related charges, erp implementation costs, capri transformation costs, restructuring and other charges. the company uses non-gaap financial measures, among other things, to evaluate its operating performance and in order to represent the manner in which the company conducts and views its business. the company believes that excluding these items helps its management and investors compare operating performance based on its ongoing operations. while the company considers the non-gaap measures to be useful supplemental measures in analyzing its results, they are not intended to replace, nor act as a substitute for, any amounts presented in its consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with u.s. gaap and may be different from non-gaap measures reported by other companies. about capri holdings limited capri holdings limited is a global fashion luxury group, consisting of iconic brands that are industry leaders in design, style and
