and female youth. They conduct business through two channels: corporate owned stores
and selling direct to customers. Historically, LULU has operated traditional brick and
mortar locations, but due to technological advancements, continual investments into e-
commerce will prove detrimental. LULU operates in the USA, Canada, Australia, New
Zealand, UK, Singapore, Hong Kong, Germany, and Puerto Rico. The company has
incorporated a vertical strategy which allows them to interact more directly and gain more
feedback from customers who they refer to as guests. Southeast Asia, 28% in South Asia,
20% in China, 2% in North America, and the remainder in other regions.
Competition in the athletic apparel industry is principally on the basis of brand image
and recognition as well as product quality, innovation, style, distribution and price .
Lululemon Athletica compete with retailers specifically focused on women’s athletic
apparel including Columbia, Michael Kors, Gildan, and Under Armor.
Business Risk
Lululemon Athletica Inc. is a large company that primarily caters to a specific market
that follows an active lifestyle. At all times, they must have the ability to maintain and
increase the value and reputation of their brand. They must make sure their products are
the highest of quality and meet the standards of their consumers in their niche market .
Failing to do so will affect their bottom line.
Lululemon Athletica Inc. does not produce its own finished goods or materials;
therefore, they are very reliant on their suppliers. There can be a disruption in the supply
chain at any given point if there is any sort of miscommunication or misunderstanding.
Product quality and manufacturing issues have previously been an issue in the past, and
they could recur in the future. In fiscal 2015, approximately 65% of products were
produced by the top five manufacturing suppliers, and almost all of the Luon fabric (30%
of fabric used) is obtained from four suppliers. With raw material costs fluctuating the
costs of goods sold, purchasing prices could increase which once again would affect the
results in operations and financial conditions. As most of Lululemon’s merchandise is
produced in foreign countries, merchandise probability could be affected if new trade
restrictions are ever imposed or if existing ones are made more burdensome.
Since a significant portion of Lululemon Athletica Inc.’s net revenue and expenses
are generated in foreign countries outside of the United States, slight fluctuation in
foreign currency exchange rates could affect the company’s final results of operations, or
may affect them in the future. Other than changes currency exchange rates, changes in
tax laws, capital or financing needs in the United States, or in the intention to reinvest
foreign earnings could adversely affect Lululemon’s income tax rate and profitability
The company’s business is affected by seasonality. Lululemon must keep up with
consumer trends in order to provide new products based on customer needs if they want
to competitively compete with their competition. They are subject to significant pressure
on cost and pricing caused by intense competition, pressure from customers to reduce
prices, changes in customer demand, and constrained sourcing capacity. This is a huge
risk the company must monitor as sales and probability may decline as a result of
increasing product cost and decreasing selling prices.
STUDENT RESEARCH 3
Security Analysis Competition November 5, 2016
Fabrics and manufacturing technology are not generally patented, therefore, final
VS products and product quality can be imitated by Lululemon’s competitors. If Lululemon
continue to be unable to protect their intellectual property rights they could potentially
diminish their brand value and weaken their competitive position.
The company is also subject to risks associated with leasing retail and distribution
space (long term and non-cancelable leases), which is a long term risk factor, as they
are responsible for most acquired spaces for long periods of times. The company is also
subject to periodic claims and litigation, which could result in either unexpected
expenses if resolved against them. Margins are also at risk, as twenty percent of
products are produced in China and increases in the cost of labor may not be able to be
offset through pricing. The competitive nature of the athletic apparel market could also
affect margins as a result of increasing product costs and decreasing selling prices.

Financial Analysis
The financial analysis table highlights the on-going struggle Lululemon is
6 encountering as they expand into the men’s athletic apparel industry. The most troubling
Inventory Turnover
statistic with Lululemon is their declining inventory turnover. As Lululemon has
5
expanded they have been losing their ability to turn inventory as quickly compared to
4 when their sole focus was on women’s athletic apparel. This is a troubling sign for the
future as Lululemon is looking for growth in the highly competitive men’s athletic leisure
3
market. The space is very crowded with large and mature players such as Under Armour
2 and Nike. Lululemon has not focused nearly enough on marketing and branding their
1 apparel for their men’s segment. For example male consumer sentiment is greater
towards brands that have a logo on their athletic-wear. Male’s like to have their brand
0
logo visible, whereas women would rather not show where they shop for their clothes.

If Lululemon wants to capture market-share from the big players in the industry, they will
need to start branding their men’s apparel with logos. The company is also experiencing
a shrinking of their EBITDA margin over our 6-year historical analysis. This is due to

their men’s line. This will cause an increase in their COGS throughout the horizon
period. The company is aggressively trying to enter the men’s athletic leisure space as
it has become a trend throughout the apparel industry. We do see the company improving
on all of these metrics for the first fiscal year of our projection. This is due to management
guidance of new stores being opened along with our revenue driving assumptions in our
DCF model. The industry in very cyclical in nature and there is currently a discount on
the sector. In the first year of projection, we believe that Lululemon will improve on
their inventory turnover metric which will help drive growth for that year and improve
on all profitability ratios (ROA, ROE, ROC). Throughout the projection period Lulu
will have relatively high profit margins while operating with mediocre asset turns.
Ratio Analysis
Earnings
Lulu’s relatively strong net income margin for the last twelve months combined
with relatively high accruals suggest possible conservative accounting and an
understatement of its reported net income.

Valuation
Sum of Parts Valuation Weight Price
To value Lululemon Athletica, we used three valuation methodologies to arrive
DCF Multiple Method 33.00% $57.90
DCF Perpetuity Growth Method 33.00% $43.49 with a sum of parts valuation. We incorporated a Discounted Cash Flow Multiple
NTM P/E Multiple Method 33.00% $54.01 Method, a Discounted Cash Flow Perpetuity Growth Method, and a Next Twelve
Implied Share Price from DCF: $51.28
Months P/E Multiple to take utilize relative valuation along with an intrinsic
Premium / (Discount) to Current: -7.93% valuation.
DCF Model (33%) - Our valuation model projects the FCFF for the next 5 fiscal
years with the assumption that the terminal growth rate at 2%, to be in line with
NTM P/E Multiple Method historical inflation. We used an effective tax rate of 35% which is the industry
Lululemon Athletica Forward P/E (FY16) average. In order to forecast our financial statements assumptions were made in the
26x
2016 LULU Estimated Earnings Per Share $2.12 following categories: Revenue, Expenses, CAPEX, and Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Implied Share Price $54.01 statement drivers. WACC for the firm is 8.25%. The capital structure for the firm is
all equity. We used a Bottom-up Beta for the company based upon our selected
Terminal Value - Perpetuity Growth Method comparables, resulting in a beta of 1.33.
Terminal Value: 6,002 Perpetuity Growth Method (33%) – Using the Perpetuity Growth Method we
Terminal FCF Growth Rate: 2.00% calculated the implied terminal EBITDA multiple. We feel our method is reasonable
given the variance of results from the valuation two multiple methods.
PV of Terminal Value: 4,285 NTM P/E Multiple Method (33%) – We also incorporated a NTM P/E from
Present Value of FCFE: 1,224 CapitalIQ analyst estimates. This method was chosen since our perpetuity growth
method gave us an implied price that seemed excessive based upon our assumptions
Implied Equity Value: 5,508

Conclusion
Our analysis has led us to conclude that Lululemon’s stock is over-valued based
on our target price of $51.28 which shows a potential 7.9% downside,
recommending a HOLD. We believe Lululemon will not be able to sustain long-
term growth because of; increased competition in athletic wear, a lack of e-
commerce positioning, men’s consumer sentiment in athletic wear, and brand
loyalty are factors that will affect their overall performance in the future.
Lululemon continues to represent themselves as a luxury brand, and consumer
preferences may not be deterred from Lulu’s products which could ultimately
prevent them from capturing market-share from Under Armour, Nike, and Adidas.
If Lulu’s men’s apparel line can have some of the same success as their female
segment, they will have the ability to attain greater market-share.
We strongly believe Lululemon Athletica is a hold for a long-term investment
horizon. However, in the short term of a year or less, investors may see share price
appreciation due to cyclicality of the industry and aggressive store openings planned
for fiscal year 2017. Lululemon will see share-price appreciation in a one-year
horizon period. This is due to management guidance of increased stores and our
revenue and expense assumption in our model. This growth will slow down as we
anticipate Lululemon to over-invest in new locations combined with their lack of
branding for the men’s segment. We forecast COGS to increase as the company seeks
growth in the men’s segment. SG&A will also be increasing due to rapid expansion
in both domestic and foreign markets. This will result in increased operating costs
and reduction in their net income margin in the future.
