Lululemon's shares are on the rise after surpassing earnings expectations for the first quarter and increasing its share buyback program to $1 billion. Analyst Janine Stichter from BTIG Consumer Retail and Lifestyle Brands explains that despite a slowdown in US sales, the company's international sales are robust, and its Americas business is performing better than anticipated. Stichter highlights Lululemon's strategy to address inventory challenges in Q2 and the rest of the year with a focus on innovation, particularly noting the success of the company's international sales, especially in China. The market views this as a positive development, providing investors with a sense of relief amidst recent challenges and management changes, with hopes for a stronger US performance in the future.
