Lululemon Cuts Outlook Again After Another Tough Quarter for Sales

Lululemon shares plummeted between 15% and 20% after the company reported disappointing second quarter fiscal 2026 results and lowered its full-year revenue and earnings guidance. The decline follows a slump in demand across the Americas. The stock hit an eight-year low on Friday as the retailer struggled with sales performance. While the company confirmed the outlook cut, investors reacted sharply to the combined impact of weak current sales and a diminished forecast for the remainder of the fiscal year.
