Sources

Dennis J. Wilson and affiliated participants filed a DFAN14A on April 7, 2026, announcing a proxy solicitation to elect a slate of director candidates at lululemon athletica's 2026 annual meeting. The group, acting as a Schedule 13(d) participant group, collectively owns 9,904,856 shares (5,115,961 of which are special voting stock on a fully-converted basis). Wilson's campaign criticizes lululemon's board and leadership, demanding board declassification, leadership refresh, product-centric strategy, faster innovation cycles, and brand repositioning to restore shareholder value after a 65% stock decline.
