Christine Day, lululemon's CEO stated: “We are proud to have produced another very healthy quarter of financial results. In the third quarter we achieved year over year revenue growth of 31%, EPS growth of 50% and comparable sales per square foot of $1,880. We are set to finish 2011 with a stronger brand, a stronger organization and we remain focused on our strategic growth opportunities.”
Updated Outlook For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $327 million to $332 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 $0.40 to $0.42 for the quarter. This assumes 145.3 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and a 36% tax rate.
