About Lululemon Athletica
Lululemon makes those premium leggings and athletic wear you see at the gym and brunch. The brand has grown from a yoga staple into a global player, pushing into footwear, bags, and new countries while charging full price for quality gear.
The case for and against
Both sides of the story, in plain English.
- World Wins
International sales jumped 22% this quarter, and overseas shopper spending at established stores rose 13%. The growth engine has clearly moved abroad, into markets like China and Europe.
- Cash Cushion
Lululemon ended the quarter with 1.5 billion dollars in cash and bought back 2.2 million of its own shares for 358 million dollars. That is a financially healthy company, not one in trouble.
- Home Trouble
Back in the Americas, net revenue slipped 3% and comparable sales fell 5% as shoppers got pickier. The brand's biggest market is cooling off.
- Lowered Bar
Profit dropped hard, with earnings falling to 1.69 dollars per share from 2.60 a year ago, and operating income down 37% to 277 million dollars. Management also trimmed full-year revenue guidance to around 11 billion dollars, basically flat.
