The Company ended the second quarter of fiscal 2011 with $264.7 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $178.2 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2010. Inventory at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2011 totaled $88.9 million compared to $66.5 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company ended the quarter with 151 stores in North America and Australia.

Christine Day, lululemon's CEO stated: “Our business remained very healthy through the second quarter, as strong sales productivity and operating margins grew pre-tax income by more than 60%. Our success is based on running a healthy brand focused business. We are confident that we are well positioned to manage successfully through the current economic environment while sensibly pursuing our future opportunities.”

Updated Outlook
For the third quarter of fiscal 2011, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $225 million to $230 million based on a comparable-store sales percentage increase in the low to mid-teens on a constant-dollar basis. Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.22 to $0.24 for the quarter. This assumes 145.5 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and a 36% tax rate.

For the full fiscal 2011, we now expect net revenue to be in the range of $930 million to $950 million and diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.10 to $1.14 for the full year. This assumes 145.4 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and a tax rate of 36%.
