Lululemon Reduces Guidance; Could Present Buying Opportunity
LULU
-7.81%
in
551 days
Shares of Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU) took a big hit after the yoga apparel retailer reported first quarter results. While earnings per share of $0.12 were in line with consensus and sales were up a healthy 74.5%, the company trimmed its full-year guidance to a range of $0.68 - $0.71 from $0.70 - $0.72 as a result of costs associated with new hires, staff training programs and a bigger push for its showroom strategy. While the lower guidance will likely push shares of Lululemon lower, RBC Capital Markets analyst Howard Tubin says a buying opportunity may emerge.

Good Quarter, Achievable Outlook for Lululemon; Maintaining Hold Due to Valuation
LULU
-13.37%
in
614 days
4/2 - "We are reducing our FY2008 estimate by $0.03 to $0.72 to account for weaker back half comps (same-store sales) as we expect the majority of the beneficial impact of currency on comps to begin to anniversary in 3Q. Management laid out a very strong strategic plan and an achievable outlook, in our view. We remain neutral, as we think the 2009 P/E of 33x is justified by the significant growth potential of the company and nearly mimics our current expected 2009 growth rate of 35%."
"The majority of new stores will be opened in markets where the company already has at least one store. Th...

4/2 - "Upscale fitness apparel retailer lululemon athletica (Nasdaq: LULU) is at peace with investors after coming through with better than expected fiscal-fourth-quarter results...Net revenue more than doubled to $105.1 million during the holiday quarter. Earnings more than quadrupled to $0.21 a share. Analysts expected the Vancouver-based chain to earn just $0.19 a share on $92.7 million in net revenue."

Lulu Lemon, a rapidly expanding branded yoga-wear manufacturer and retailer made it's initial public offering back in July 2007. After a strong early showing LULU reached a high of $58/share in October before joining the rest of the market's systematic retracement and is now trading near it's IPO price at $29.49
Lulu's dominant niche brand and aggressive expansion strategy have led to some compelling year-over-year revenue and earnings growth figures. Make no mistake, LULU is strong on fundamentals and at this price, I can't see it being anything other than a BUY.

After a good run up, LULU had a period of profit taking it appears. The gains have been erased in time for a new run up. The sector is depressed now and this may be a bargain waiting to be bought. It may still drop a little more so the timing of the sale is anyone's guess. But I'm guessing this one continues to climb after a brief respit.

The hype for LULU shares should die down over the next couple months, most likely rebounding for the holiday season. The company maintained but did not raise its guidance for earnings estimates which means that there is no compelling reason for new investors to buy the stock at the current time. On the other hand, there is lots of motivation to sell as IPO investors are up close to 100% and there is a lot of risk in stocks these days with all of the economic problems in the US. I would sell now and look to rebuy in a couple of months if you want to continue to own the stock. I expect th...
