Lululemon's New Outlook is Encouraging, Though Risks Linger -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-12

1012 ET - Lululemon expects 4Q profit and revenue to come in at the high end of its previously issued forecasts. While the outlook is encouraging, Jefferies analysts say in a research note that they remain cautious, given the lack of updates to margin or expense guidance. "Lululemon's U.S. business continues to require focused execution, and management's commentary suggests ongoing work to drive improvement," they write. Looking ahead, the business will likely remain challenged, given ongoing competitive pressures and current leadership dynamics, the analysts say. They are looking for more commentary from the company regarding U.S. business trends, inventory discipline and margin outlook. Lululemon is up 1.5%. (connor.hart@wsj.com)
