- Wilson, who slammed the company’s current leadership as incapable, launched the latest proxy fight against Lululemon’s board in late December.

Lululemon Athletica Inc. (LULU) founder Chip Wilson on Tuesday pressed the company to answer multiple questions at the upcoming quarterly earnings call amid a proxy fight.
Wilson said that the athletic apparel maker must answer how continued discounting is impacting its brand value, and also explain the board’s decision-making process on product launches in light of recent product failures. Wilson also enquired how the company seeks to address its falling in same store sales in North America before it starts to impact global markets.
Wilson’s Ongoing Proxy Fight
Wilson, who slammed the company’s current leadership as incapable, launched the latest proxy fight against Lululemon’s board in late December by nominating three independent directors- Marc Maurer, Laura Gentile and Eric Hirshberg, to the company’s Board.
“The core issue at lululemon is one the Company has struggled with for years: there is a disconnect between the Company's creative engine and the Board's understanding for how brand power and product excellence fuel cultural strength, margin durability and long-term shareholder value,” Wilson said on Tuesday while adding that his nominees will pose tough questions in the boardroom.
The company’s current Board has no brand and product experience, Wilson alleged. Activist investor Elliott Management is also pushing for leadership changes at the company in addition to a new CEO.
