Lululemon Athletica (CA5500211090) stock rose 5.05% to $120.81 on August 28, 2026, while the company's latest quarter showed $2.47 billion in revenue and $1.69 in adjusted EPS. The move leaves the shares far below the 52-week high of $225.98 but above the 52-week low of $104.44, with the market value at $14.34 billion.
Its most recent quarterly results were released on June 4, 2026 and came with FY 2026 EPS guidance of $10.95 to $11.15 and Q2 2026 EPS guidance of $1.76 to $1.81. Revenue in that quarter was up 4.3% from the prior year period, while EPS fell from $2.60 a year earlier to $1.69.
Guidance still drives the setup
That gap between revenue growth and lower earnings is the key tension for investors heading into the next update. A later update from MarketBeat on institutional buying and analyst views said the stock opened at $120.81, had a 50-day moving average of $117.94 and a 200-day moving average of $138.44, with a consensus price target of $148.38.
That same update also listed a consensus view of Reduce, with 1 Strong Buy, 1 Buy, 25 Hold and 5 Sell ratings. For a retailer that still generated a 13.03% net margin and 31.26% return on equity in the June quarter, the market is still debating whether the latest recovery can extend.
What the brand sells
The company's product mix centers on technical apparel for yoga, running, training and everyday activewear, plus accessories and a growing footwear line. That category mix matters because it ties revenue growth to product cadence and full-price sell-through, not just broad consumer demand.
Shares after the close
Lululemon stock closed at $120.81 on August 28, 2026, with a market capitalization of $14.34 billion and a 200-day moving average of $138.44. The June 4 earnings release and the August 28 trading session together frame the current setup for the next catalyst.
