Vancouver, Canada - June 7, 2012 - lululemon athletica inc. [NASDAQ:LULU; TSX:LLL] today announced financial results for the first quarter ended April 29, 2012.

For the thirteen weeks ended April 29, 2012:

The Company ended the first quarter of fiscal 2012 with $424.3 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $260.9 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Inventory at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2012 totaled $107.7 million compared to $64.4 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company ended the quarter with 180 stores in North America, Australia, and New Zealand.

Christine Day, lululemon’s CEO stated: “Our strategy to increase inventory levels led to strong revenue growth and earnings performance in the first quarter as our guests responded well to our spring styles and colors.”

Updated Outlook

For the second quarter of fiscal 2012, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $273 million to $278 million based on a comparable-store sales percentage increase in the low double digits on a constant-dollar basis. Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.28 to $0.30 for the quarter. This assumes 145.7 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and a 36.5% tax rate.

For the full fiscal 2012, we now expect net revenue to be in the range of $1,320 million to $1,340 million and diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.55 to $1.60 for the full year. This assumes 146.0 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and a tax rate of 36.5%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure

Constant-dollar net revenue changes, which exclude the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, is not a United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (“GAAP”) performance measure. We provide constant-dollar net revenue changes because we use the measure to understand the underlying growth rate of revenue excluding the impact on a quarter-by-quarter basis of changes in foreign exchange rates, which are not under management’s direct control. We believe that disclosing net revenue changes on a constant-dollar basis is useful to investors because it enables them to better understand the level of growth of our business.

The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on this non-GAAP financial measure, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measure — Constant dollar changes” included in the accompanying financial tables, which includes more detail on the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures.
