NEW YORK, April 17, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Brualdi Law Firm, P.C. announces that a lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of Coach, Inc. ("Coach" or the "Company") (NYSE:COH) publicly traded securities during the period between January 23, 2007, and October 22, 2007, (the "Class Period") for violations of the federal security laws.

No class has yet been certified in the above action. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one.

You do not need to seek appointment as a lead plaintiff in order to share in any recovery.

The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants reported strong growth for the Company and forecast similar growth going forward. However, defendants failed to disclose that the Company's growth rate was, in fact, unsustainable. Then, on October 23, 2007, before the market opened, Coach announced that although its fiscal first-quarter profit rose 23%, traffic in its U.S. retail stores was weak and the Company expected a slow-down in the coming holiday season. As a result of this announcement, Coach's stock price dropped $4.87 per share (or 12%) to close at $36.60 per share on October 23, 2007.
