Lulu’s Fashion Lounge Holdings
Lulu’s Fashion is an online retailer of women’s apparel, shoes, and accessories. Despite macro concerns, LVLU continues to grow its top line in double-digits.
LVLU recently announced the preliminary results for Q2. It expects to deliver net revenue of about $131.0 million to $132.0 million, representing year-over-year growth of 26.5% to 27.5%. LVLU CEO, David McCreight, stated, “Despite macroeconomic headwinds, we delivered double-digit year-over-year and sequential revenue growth in Q2.”
However, LVLU is not immune to macro headwinds, leading management to lower full-year revenue growth guidance. LVLU expects to deliver net revenue of $440 million to $480 million, down from its previous forecast of $490 million to $500 million. Despite the guidance cut, LVLU’s forecast implies a year-over-year growth rate of 17.1% to 27.8%.
In response to the guidance cut, Jefferies analyst Randal Konik stated, “Macro headwinds are elevated and volatility is increasing, so we take down our numbers in line with mgmt’s revised guidance. With the company nicely profitable, opportunity to grow long-term compelling, and valuation extremely compressed, we would buy shares on today’s pullback.”
LVLU stock has received six Buy and two Hold recommendations for a Strong Buy rating consensus. Meanwhile, analysts’ average price target of $14.38 implies 97.8% upside potential.
LVLU stock also has positive signals from insiders and retail investors. Insiders bought LVLU stock worth 23.9K in the last quarter. Meanwhile, 74.9% of TipRanks’ investors increased their exposure to LVLU stock. Overall, LVLU has a maximum Smart Score of 10 on TipRanks.
Bottom Line

Further, with positive signals from analysts, hedge funds, insiders, and retail investors, these stocks have a maximum Smart Score, implying they are more likely to outperform other penny stocks.
