Common stock offered by us | shares | |
Common stock offered by the selling stockholders | shares | |
Common stock outstanding after this offering | shares | |
The number of shares of our common stock outstanding after this offering is based on the assumptions outlined in the bullets below. As described below, the number of shares outstanding after this offering depends in part on the initial public offering price and the effective date of our corporate reorganization. |
Use of proceeds | We expect to receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $18.3 million, based upon an assumed initial public offering price of $ per share, the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover of this prospectus, and after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares in this offering by the selling stockholders, including upon the sale of shares if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares from the selling stockholders in this offering. |
We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering, together with cash flow from operations, to fund new store openings and working capital, and for other general corporate purposes, which may include general and administrative expenses and potential acquisitions of franchises. For fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2008, we have budgeted an aggregate of $28.0 million to $34.0 million for new store openings, although the actual amounts that we spend on such items may vary. See “Use of Proceeds.” |
Risk factors | See “Risk Factors” on page 10 and the other information in this prospectus for a discussion of the factors you should consider before you decide to invest in our common stock. |
Directed share program | The underwriters have reserved for sale, at the initial public offering price, up to shares of our common stock being offered for sale to our business associates, employees, friends and family members of our employees. The number of shares available for sale to the general public in this offering will be reduced to the extent these persons purchased reserved shares. Any reserved shares not purchased will be offered by the underwriters to the general public on the same terms as the other shares. | |

(2) | We have not computed basic and diluted earnings per share as the combined consolidated results reflect the results of two separate companies (Lululemon Corp. and LIPO Investments (Canada) Inc.), each with its own distinct and separate capital structure. As a result of our corporate reorganization, various securities (including Series A preferred stock issued by Lululemon Corp. and common stock equivalents issued by LIPO Investments (Canada) Inc.) will be exchanged for shares of our common stock based in part on the quotient of the value of accrued but unpaid dividends (which, where applicable, accrue on a daily basis until the consummation of our corporate reorganization) to our initial public offering price. We have accordingly presented pro forma earnings per share for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2007 and for the three months ended April 30, 2007 giving effect to our corporate reorganization as if it had been consummated on the first day of that period. In addition, the outstanding stock options of the two companies will be converted into options to purchase shares of our common stock.

As a result of our corporate reorganization, various securities (including Series A preferred stock issued by Lululemon Corp. and common stock equivalents issued by LIPO Investments (Canada) Inc.) will be exchanged for shares of our common stock based in part on the quotient of the value of accrued but unpaid dividends (which, where applicable, accrue on a daily basis until the consummation of our |

corporate reorganization) to our initial public offering price. We have accordingly presented pro forma earnings per share for the year ended January 31, 2007 and for the three months ended April 30, 2007 giving effect to our corporate reorganization as if it had been consummated on the first day of that period. In addition, the outstanding stock options of the two companies will be converted into options to purchase shares of our common stock.

• | design and develop innovative athletic apparel that combines performance with style and incorporates real-time customer feedback; | |
• | locate our stores in street locations, lifestyle centers and malls that position each lululemon athletica store as an integral part of its community; | |
• | create an inviting and educational store environment that encourages product trial and repeat visits; and | |
• | market on a grassroots level in each community, including through influential fitness practitioners who embrace and create excitement around our brand. |

• | Premium Active Brand. lululemon athletica stands for leading a healthy, balanced and fun life. We believe customers associate the lululemon athletica brand with high quality premium athletic apparel that incorporates technically advanced materials, innovative functional features and style. We believe our focus on women differentiates us and positions lululemon athletica to address a void in the growing market for women’s athletic apparel. The premium nature of our brand is reinforced by our vertical retail strategy and our selective distribution through yoga studios and fitness clubs that we believe are the most influential within the fitness communities of their respective markets. We believe this approach allows us to further control our brand image and merchandising. While our brand has its roots in yoga, our products are increasingly being designed and used for other athletic and casual lifestyle pursuits. We work with local athletes and fitness practitioners to enhance our brand awareness and broaden our product appeal. | |
• | Distinctive Retail Experience. We locate our stores in street locations, lifestyle centers and malls that position lululemon athletica stores to be an integral part of their communities. Our retail concept is based on a community-centric philosophy designed to offer customers an inviting and educational experience. We believe that this environment encourages product trial, purchases and repeat visits. We coach our store sales associates, who we refer to as “educators”, to develop a personal connection with each guest. Our educators embody our core values and |
81
are typically experienced fitness practitioners. They receive approximately 30 hours of in-house training within the first three months of the start of their employment and are well prepared to explain the technical and innovative design aspects of each product. Each of our stores features a community board with local information regarding yoga, fitness and other activities. Our educators also serve as knowledgeable references for information on fitness classes, instructors and events in the local community. We believe that these characteristics contribute to the productivity of our stores which exhibit strong operating metrics, including sales per square foot and average payback period on new store investments. |
• | Innovative Design Process. We offer high-quality premium apparel that is designed for performance, comfort, functionality and style. We attribute our ability to develop superior products to a number of factors, including: |
• | Our feedback-based design process through which our design and product development team proactively and frequently seek input from our customers and local fitness practitioners; | |
• | Close collaboration with our third-party suppliers to formulate innovative and technically advanced fabrics and features for our products; and | |
• | Although we typically bring products from design to market in 8 to 10 months, our vertical retail strategy enables us to bring select products to market in as little as one month, thereby allowing us to respond quickly to customer feedback, changing market conditions and apparel trends. |
• | Community-Based Marketing Approach. We differentiate lululemon athletica through an innovative, community-based approach to building brand awareness and customer loyalty. We use a multi-faceted grassroots marketing strategy that includes partnering with local fitness practitioners and retail educators and creating in-store community boards. To create excitement and reinforce the premium image for our brand, we often initiate our grassroots marketing efforts in advance of opening our first store. Each of our stores has a dedicated community coordinator who organizes fitness or philanthropic events that heighten the image of our brand in the community. We believe this grassroots approach allows us to successfully increase brand awareness and broaden our appeal while reinforcing our premium brand image. | |
• | Deep Rooted Culture Centered on Training and Personal Growth. We believe our core values and distinctive corporate culture allow us to attract passionate and motivated employees who are driven to succeed and share our vision. We provide our employees with a supportive, goal-oriented environment and encourage them to reach their full professional, health and personal potential. We offer programs such as personal development workshops and goal coaching to assist our employees in realizing their long-term objectives. We believe our relationship with our employees is exceptional and a key contributor to our success. The passion and dedication of our employees allows us to execute on our business strategy which promotes repeat visits and strengthens our brand loyalty. | |
• | Experienced Management Team with Proven Ability to Execute. Our founder, Mr. Wilson, leads our design team and plays a central role in corporate strategy and in promoting our distinctive corporate culture. Our Chief Executive Officer, Robert Meers, whose experience includes 15 years at Reebok International Ltd., most recently serving as the chief executive officer of the Reebok brand from 1996 to 1999, joined us in December 2005. Messrs. Wilson and Meers have assembled a management team with a complementary mix of retail, design, operations, product sourcing and marketing experience from leading apparel and retail companies such as Abercrombie & Fitch Co., Limited Brands, Inc., Nike, Inc. and Reebok. We believe our management team is well positioned to execute the long-term growth strategy for our business. |
82
• | Grow our Store Base in North America. As of June 1, 2007, our products were sold through 57 stores, including 38 in Canada and 15 in the United States. We expect that most of our near-term store growth will occur in the United States. We have demonstrated strong sales to date in the United States, supporting the portability of our brand and retail concept. We plan to add new stores to strengthen existing markets and selectively enter new markets in the United States and Canada. We anticipate opening between 20 and 25 stores in fiscal 2007 and between 30 and 35 additional stores in fiscal 2008 in the United States and Canada. |
• | Increase our Brand Awareness. We will continue to increase brand awareness and customer loyalty through our grassroots marketing efforts and planned store expansion. In existing markets, our community coordinators organize frequent events and generate excitement around our brand to enhance our profile in the local community. We also seek to cluster our new stores within a given area when appropriate to leverage our community marketing efforts. Our ability to initiate our grassroots marketing efforts in advance of selected store openings allows us to actively develop brand awareness in new markets. We believe that increased brand awareness will result in increased comparable-store sales and sales productivity over time. | |
• | Introduce New Product Technologies. We remain focused on developing and offering products that incorporate technology-enhanced fabrics and performance features that differentiate us in the market. Collaborating with leading fabric manufacturers, we have jointly developed and trademarked names for innovative fabrics such as Luon and Silverescent, and natural stretch fabrics using organic elements such as bamboo, soy, and seaweed. Among our ongoing efforts, we are jointly developing encapsulation enhanced fabrics to provide advanced features such as UV protection and temperature control. In addition, we will continue to develop differentiated manufacturing techniques that provide greater support, protection, and comfort. We believe that incorporating new technologies into our products will reinforce the authenticity and appeal of our products and encourage brand loyalty. | |
• | Broaden the Appeal of our Products. We will selectively seek opportunities to expand the appeal of our brand to improve store productivity and increase our overall addressable market. To enhance our product appeal, we intend to: |
• | Grow our Men’s Business. We believe the premium quality and technical rigor of our products will continue to appeal to men and that there is an opportunity to expand our men’s business as a proportion of our total sales. | |
• | Expand our Product Categories. We plan to expand our product offerings in complementary existing and new categories such as bags, undergarments, outerwear and sandals. | |
• | Increase the Range of Athletic Activities our Products Target. We expect customers to increasingly purchase our products for activities such as running, dance and general fitness as we educate them on the versatility of our products and expand our offering. |
• | Expand Beyond North America. As of June 1, 2007, we operated three stores in Japan through a joint venture and one franchise store in Australia, which we intend to transition to a joint venture. Given the attractive demographics of and our early success in both markets, we plan to open additional stores in Japan and Australia with our joint venture partners. Over time, we intend to pursue additional joint venture opportunities in other Asian and European markets. We believe partnering in these regions reduces our risk and improves the probability of success in these markets, as we are able to leverage our partners’ local market knowledge and existing infrastructure. |

(1) | An Investor Sale may also constitute a Change in Control for purposes of accelerated vesting of Mr. Meers’ time-vested options, however, for the purposes of this disclosure, we have assumed each to be discrete transactions. |
(2) | This amount represents Mr. Meers’ monthly base salary for a period of 34 months (i.e., February 1, 2007 — December 5, 2009). Such amount will be payable over a 34 month period. |
(3) | This amount represents the intrinsic value as of January 31, 2007 of the time-vested portion of Mr. Meers’ stock options that would become vested on an accelerated basis upon a Change in Control. For purposes of this calculation, we have determined the intrinsic value based on the difference between the option exercise price of $1.39 and an assumed Change in Control price equal to the mid-point of the estimated per share offering price range of our common stock indicated on the cover page of this prospectus. |
(4) | Because the amounts actually realized with respect to any option grant will depend on the price of our common stock on the date the award is exercised, the amount may or may not ultimately reflect the actual value that could be realized by Mr. Meers with respect to this award. |
(5) | This amount represents the intrinsic value as of January 31, 2007 of the performance vested portion of Mr. Meers’ stock option that would become vested upon an Investor Sale on that date. For purposes of this calculation, we have assumed that the price paid in connection with that Investor Sale will be equal to the mid-point of the estimated per share offering price range of our common stock indicated on the cover page of this prospectus. This price will, in turn, determine the return realized by our principal investors; their return will, in turn, determine the portion of the option that then becomes vested. Based on this price, the performance vested portion of the option would become vested with respect to shares. |

• | the discussion assumes that anon-U.S. holder holds our common stock as a capital asset and that thenon-U.S. holder does not have a special tax status, such as a financial institution, an insurance company, a hybrid entity, a tax-exempt organization or a broker-dealer or trader in securities; | |
• | the discussion does not consider tax consequences that depend upon anon-U.S. holder’s particular tax situation; | |
• | the discussion does not consider special tax rules that may apply to anon-U.S. holder who holds our common stock as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction, synthetic security or other integrated investment; | |
• | the discussion does not consider special tax provisions that may be applicable to anon-U.S. holder that has relinquished U.S. citizenship or residence; | |

• | the discussion does not consider the tax consequences for stockholders, partners, owners or beneficiaries of anon-U.S. holder; and | |
• | we have not requested a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, on the tax consequences of owning the common stock. As a result, the IRS could disagree with portions of this discussion. |
• | the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by thenon-U.S. holder in the United States and, if required by an applicable tax treaty, the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by thenon-U.S. holder in the United States, in which case |
142
the gain will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular graduated rates and in the manner applicable to U.S. persons, unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise, and, if thenon-U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, the branch profits tax described above may also apply; |
• | we are or have been a United States real property holding corporation, or USRPHC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that thenon-U.S. holder held our common stock; in this case, thenon-U.S. holder may be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its net gain derived from the disposition of our common stock at regular graduated rates. Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests plus its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. If we are, or were to become, a USRPHC, gain realized upon disposition of our common stock by anon-U.S. holder that did not directly or indirectly own more than 5% of our common stock during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that thenon-U.S. holder held our common stock generally would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that our common stock is “regularly traded on an established securities market” within the meaning of Section 897(c)(3) of the Code. We believe that we are not currently, and we do not anticipate becoming in the future, a USRPHC; or | |
• | if anon-U.S. holder (i) is an individual, (ii) holds the common stock as a capital asset, (iii) is present in the United States for 183 or more days during the taxable year of the sale and (iv) certain conditions are met, then thenon-U.S. holder will be subject to a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from the sale, which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses, even though thenon-U.S. holder is not considered a resident of the U.S. |
