**Membership and lululemon Studio (formerly known as MIRROR)**

Building on the two-tier membership program launched in October 2022, the Company will be expanding the lululemon Studio premium tier by enabling guests to access its digital fitness content via a new app, launching in summer 2023, for a lower monthly fee.

The Company is evolving its Studio strategy and will focus on digital app-based services. It will continue to provide in-home hardware and content for members who own or would like to purchase a lululemon Studio Mirror and currently there are no changes planned for the free, Essentials tier of the membership program which continues to experience robust growth in new members.

The Company believes this strategy will create efficiencies and enable more guests to experience the full range of digital fitness content, while also building a larger community of guests with a deeper connection to lululemon.

**Fiscal 2023 Outlook**

For the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we expect net revenue to be in the range of $1.890 billion to $1.930 billion, representing growth of approximately 18%. Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.93 to $2.00 for the quarter. This guidance assumes a 30% tax rate.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

Constant dollar changes and adjusted financial results are non-GAAP financial measures. A constant dollar basis assumes the average foreign currency exchange rates for the period remained constant with the average foreign currency exchange rates for the same period of the prior year. The Company provides constant dollar changes in its results to help investors understand the underlying growth rate of net revenue excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Adjusted gross profit, gross margin, income from operations, operating margin, income tax expense, effective tax rates, net income, and diluted earnings per share exclude the impairment and other charges recognized for our lululemon Studio business unit (formerly MIRROR), the gain on disposal of assets for the sale of an administrative office building, the MIRROR acquisition-related expenses, and the related income tax effects of these items.

The Company believes these adjusted financial measures are useful to investors as they provide supplemental information that enable evaluation of the underlying trend in its operating performance, and enable a comparison to its historical financial information. Further, due to the finite and discrete nature of these items, it does not consider them to be normal operating expenses that are necessary to operate the business, or impairments or disposal gains that are expected to arise in the normal course of our operations. Management uses these adjusted financial measures and constant currency metrics internally when reviewing and assessing financial performance.

The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or with greater prominence to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section captioned "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures"
