Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation	Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation Nature of operations lululemon athletica inc., a Delaware corporation, ("lululemon" and, together with its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise requires, the "Company") is engaged in the design, distribution, and retail of technical athletic apparel, footwear, and accessories. The Company organizes its operations into four regional markets: Americas, China Mainland, Asia Pacific ("APAC"), and Europe and the Middle East ("EMEA"). It conducts its business through a number of different channels in each market, including company-operated stores, e-commerce, outlets, temporary locations, wholesale, license and supply arrangements, and a re-commerce program. There were 816 and 811 company-operated stores in operation as of May 3, 2026 and February 1, 2026, respectively. Basis of presentation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, including the financial position as of May 3, 2026 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed, are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared by the Company under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The financial information is presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and, accordingly, does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial information as of February 1, 2026 is derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2026, which are included in Item 8 in the Company's fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2026. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 8 in the Company's fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to January 31 of the following year, typically resulting in a 52-week year, but occasionally giving rise to an additional week, resulting in a 53-week year. Fiscal 2026 will end on January 31, 2027 and will be a 52-week year. Fiscal 2025 was a 52-week year and ended on February 1, 2026. Fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 are referred to as "2026," and "2025," respectively. The first quarter of 2026 and 2025 ended on May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, respectively. The Company's business is affected by the pattern of seasonality common to most retail apparel businesses. Historically, the Company has recognized a significant portion of its operating profit in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year as a result of increased net revenue during the holiday season. Events predominantly impacting the Company's international net revenue, such as those related to Lunar New Year and Singles Day, can fall in different fiscal quarters from year to year. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
