Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU) - September 4, 2025

NEW YORK - Lululemon Athletica Inc. (NASDAQ: LULU) released its second-quarter 2025 results after market close on Thursday, reported stronger-than-expected earnings but disappointed investors by lowering full-year guidance, sending the stock sharply lower in after-hours trading.

Key Second-Quarter Results

  • Net revenue of $2.525 billion, up 7% year-over-year (6% on a constant-dollar basis)
  • Comparable sales + 1% (Americas - 4%; International + 15%)
  • Diluted EPS of $3.10, beating consensus of $2.88 by 7.6%
  • Gross margin 58.5%, down 110 bps; operating margin 20.7%, down 210 bps

Guidance Revision Lululemon cut its full-year earnings-per-share outlook to $12.77-$12.97, citing persistent tariff pressures and softer U.S. traffic trends.

Stock Movement Shares climbed as much as 2.6% during Thursday’s trading session as investors awaited the report, on the back of a surge in retail chatter about the stock. Early in the day, LULU was up 1.2% by 9:25 a.m. ET. However, following the lowered full-year outlook, the stock plunged approximately 12% in extended trading.
