It has dropped from the all-time high of $516 in December 2023 to the current $207, bringing its market cap from $68 billion to $25 billion. So, will the stock rebound in 2026? <h3>Why Lululemon stock price has plummeted</h3>Lululemon Athletica, one of the top beneficiaries of the Covid-19 pandemic, has become a fallen angel as its growth momentum has slowed.Its annual revenue growth stood at 42% in 2021, 30% in 2022, 18.6% in 2023, and 10% last year. Its trailing twelve-month (TTM) revenue growth stood at 8.7%.The most recent results showed that the revenue rose by 7% in the third quarter to $2.6 billion. This revenue was driven by its international segment, whose revenue rose by 33%. Its Americas revenue dropped by 2%.The company’s comparable sales in the Americas segment dropped by 5%, while in the international market rose by 18%. This growth was driven by China, a country that has become one of its important markets. Lululemon’s growth slowdown is partly because of the rising competition from other companies like Nike, Adidas, Gap, Vuori, and Sweaty Betty, which have taken market share from its company.At the same time, Donald Trump’s tariffs have not helped as the company makes most of its products in Asia. In its most recent results, the company announced that its income from operations would receive a $210 million hit from tariffs.Tariffs had an impact on its profitability in the last quarter. Its net income dropped to $306 million from the $351 million it made in the same period last year. <h3>Growth concerns remain</h3>Wall Street analysts believe that the company’s growth will remain under pressure in the coming quarters because of tariffs, inflation, and competition.The average estimate is that revenue in the fourth quarter will be $3.56 billion, down by 0.95% from what it made last year. If this is correct, this means that its annual revenue will be $11 billion, up by 4.19% YoY.It will then make $11.5 billion in 2026. Chances are that Lululemon’s revenue and earnings will be higher than expected as it has done in the past.On the positive side, chances are that the company’s slowdown has bottomed and that its growth will start improving in the coming years.Additionally, the company has continued to buy back its shares in the past few months. It increased its share repurchase program by $1 billion. As a result, its outstanding shares have dropped from 124 million in 2021 to the current 112.78 million. The company has also become a bargain, with its forward price-to-earnings ratio of 15.8, lower than the sector median of 17.6 and its five-year average of 34. Its forward EV/EBITDA of 9.2, down from the five-year average of 20. <h3>LULU stock price technical analysis </h3>(Click on image to enlarge)<img height="396" src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://invezz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Lululemom-stock-1024x579.png?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg" width="700" original-src="https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://invezz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Lululemom-stock-1024x579.png"/>Lululemon stock price chart | Source: TradingView The daily timeframe chart shows that the LULU stock price formed a double-bottom pattern at $160 and the neckline at $192.
