Los Angeles, CA – Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP has initiated a class action lawsuit against Lululemon Athletica Inc. in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case, titled Patel v. Lululemon Athletica Inc., alleges that the company misled investors regarding its financial health and operational challenges during the period from December 7, 2023, to July 24, 2024. Investors who suffered losses during this timeframe are encouraged to contact the firm for potential claims under federal securities laws. The lawsuit follows a series of disappointing financial disclosures from Lululemon, particularly a press release on March 21, 2024, which revealed stagnating growth in the Americas region. The company reported a mere 9% revenue growth for the fourth quarter, significantly lower than the previous year's 29%. This trend raised concerns among investors about the company's future performance. Further compounding these issues, a July 25, 2024, report indicated that Lululemon had decided to pause sales of its Breezethrough yoga wear to address product quality concerns. This announcement led to a sharp decline in the company's stock price, which fell by 9.09% in a single day, reflecting investor anxiety over the company's operational difficulties. The complaint asserts that Lululemon's executives failed to disclose critical information regarding inventory and product launch challenges, leading to misleading statements about the company's prospects. Affected investors have 60 days from the notice date to seek lead plaintiff status in the case.
