Activist Involvement at Lululemon Sparks Turnaround Speculation
about 1 month ago
Alexander Silva
"Of course we have Lululemon today. Activist investor Elliot Management has built a stake of more than a billion dollars in the company. Elliot apparently has been working for months with retail executive Jane Nielsen. Uh she is a former chief financial officer and chief operating officer for Ralph Lauren. Neielen is viewed uh by the activist investor as a potential CEO candidate. Of course, the company had said that CEO Calvin McDonald would be stepping down at the end of January. Just taking a look at shares right now. They're up about 7%. The stock rallied 11% since Friday when they boosted their fullear outlook and also announced the departure of McDonald."
The commentary highlights activist investor Elliot Management building a significant stake in Lululemon and working behind the scenes for a potential CEO change, which, combined with recent uplifting share performance, suggests an anticipated turnaround despite the stock's weak year-to-date performance.
