Lululemon revenues increase 30% in FY22

On this episode of Talking Shop I’m joined by Alain Bejjani—former Group CEO of Middle East retail giant Majid Al Futtaim, and author of the definitive new book, NEXT: Leading Through the New Realities. Drawing on his childhood in war-torn Beirut, and his experience steering a $9.5bn dollar retail and lifestyle empire through a global pandemic, Alain brings an unmatched perspective on leadership under pressure. Today, we break down his crisis survival playbook for retailers operating in distress. We discuss why resilience must always outpace efficiency, the four assets a brand must protect at all costs, and how to turn macro-turmoil into a long-term direction that scales.

Lululemon’s full-year net revenues have increased by 30% to $8.1bn (£6.6bn), the athleisure company has revealed in its FY22 statement.

Gross profit amounted to $4.4bn (£3.5bn) in 2022 compared to $3.6bn (£2.9bn) the previous year although adjusted net income resulted less than 2021, with $854m (£691m) compared to $975m (£789m).

Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $4.40 (£3.56) compared to $3.37 (£2.73) in the fourth quarter of 2021.

In 2022, the apparel company also expanded their portfolio of stores, with 81 new openings throughout the year. 

For the first quarter of 2023, Lululemon has said it expects net revenue to be in the range of $1.8bn (£1.4bn) to $1.9bn (£1.5bn). The company is also planning to launch a new app in the summer which will allow customers to access its digital fitness content for a monthly fee. 

Meghan Frank, chief financial officer, said: “We are pleased with our performance in the fourth quarter, which remained balanced across product categories, channels, and regions. Our ability to exceed our annual revenue target in a dynamic operating environment is a testament to the enduring strength of the lululemon brand.”

Calvin McDonald, chief executive officer, said: “Our continued high level of performance is a reflection of the hard work and agility of our incredible teams and the deep connections they create with our guests and communities around the world. As we enter 2023, we look forward to another year of strong momentum across the globe and delivering on our Power of Three ×2 growth plan.”
