Overview

In 2025, we delivered net revenue growth of 5%, with a 22% increase in our international regions offsetting a decrease of 1% in the Americas. Our international revenue growth was driven by a 29% increase in China Mainland, and a 16% increase in Rest of World.

By product category, we saw a 5% increase in women's, 4% growth in men's, and an 8% increase in accessories and other categories. We expanded our retail presence by adding 44 net new company-operated stores, contributing to an 11% increase in square footage. Company-operated store net revenue increased 1% and e-commerce net revenue increased 8%.

Operating margin decreased 380 basis points and diluted earnings per share decreased by 9%, mainly due to the impact from increased tariff rates in the United States, and the removal of the de minimis provision. We have taken mitigating actions, including selective price increases and vendor negotiations; however, we do not expect these actions to fully offset these incremental costs, and we believe tariffs and de minimis changes will continue to adversely affect gross margin and income from operations in 2026. See "Import Tariffs" below for additional information.

Over the course of 2025, we repurchased 5.0 million shares for $1.2 billion, and in December 2025, our board of directors approved a $1.0 billion increase to our stock repurchase authorization.

Priorities and actions

We have experienced declining revenue trends in North America and have developed an action plan to drive improvement in this region, while maintaining revenue growth in our international businesses. Our action plan is structured around three strategic pillars: product creation, product activation, and enterprise efficiency.

Product Creation

The goal of our Product Creation pillar is to ensure we deliver the product that our guests expect from lululemon. We are leveraging our Science of Feel principles across our performance and lifestyle assortments. Work streams within this pillar include:

Increasing the frequency and breadth of new styles. In 2025 new styles included Daydrift, Be Calm, Big Cozy, and Mile Maker. We are working to reinvigorate several of our key franchises including Scuba, Dance Studio, and ABC, while also maintaining a strong pipeline of new innovations across our performance offering.

Improving our speed to market. We are executing initiatives intended to reduce our product development timelines, which we believe may support more timely introduction of new styles and innovation. In addition, we have been enhancing our chase capabilities, with the objective of enabling more responsive replenishment of select strong‑performing styles.

Product Activation

The aim of the Product Activation pillar is to ensure we are bringing our product to life for our guest in new and compelling ways across all channels. Work streams within this pillar include:

Improving the in-store experience by maximizing the impact of our assortments through individual item count reduction, improving in-store storytelling by shifting product adjacencies, and enhancing visual merchandising.

Improving the digital experience through continued enhancements to our website to elevate the guest experience and improve storytelling with the goal to increase conversion.

Continued investment in integrated marketing with a plan focused on driving awareness and excitement for product newness and innovation across our performance and lifestyle assortments. We are leveraging our ambassadors as well as carefully sourced creators, with a focus on engaging guests through social channels and community activations.

Enterprise Efficiency

We continue to take actions in both the near and longer term to ensure we are operating as efficiently as possible. These actions help mitigate the cost of increased tariffs and current revenue trends in the Americas. These include enterprise-wide operating efficiency and cost-saving initiatives, selective price increases, and supply chain initiatives.
