在我提供第一季度的重點和我們的指導展望之前,我將向您推薦我們投資者網站上發布的財務補充以了解更多詳細信息。
For Q1, total net revenue rose 20% to $782 million, driven by strong execution across all parts of the business.

第一季度毛利潤為 4.217 億美元,占淨收入的 53.9%,而 2018 年第一季度占淨收入的 53.1%。
The gross profit rate in Q1 increased 80 basis points versus gross margin last year and was driven primarily by the following: a 190 basis point increase in overall product margin resulting from lower product costs, favorability in product mix and lower markdowns.
第一季度的毛利率比去年的毛利率增加了 80 個基點,主要受以下因素推動:由於產品成本降低、產品組合有利和降價幅度降低,整體產品利潤率增加了 190 個基點。
We are pleased with the product margin strength we continue to realize on top of the strong gains over the last several years.
我們對在過去幾年的強勁增長基礎上繼續實現的產品利潤率優勢感到滿意。

這些扣除使第一季度的每股收益受益約 0.02 美元。
We still expect our tax rate for 2019 to be approximately 28%.

We repurchased 1 million shares during the quarter at a cost of $163.5 million.
我們在本季度以 1.635 億美元的成本回購了 100 萬股股票。
Coming into 2019, our Board authorized a new $500 million share repurchase plan, of which approximately $337 million of authorization remains.
進入 2019 年,我們的董事會批准了一項新的 5 億美元股票回購計劃,其中約 3.37 億美元的授權仍然存在。
We believe that repurchasing our shares is an efficient and effective way to return excess cash to shareholders, and we'll continue to be opportunistic with our repurchase activity.
我們相信,回購我們的股票是向股東返還多餘現金的一種有效且有效的方式,我們將繼續在回購活動中投機取巧。
Turning now to our outlook.
現在轉向我們的前景。
For Q2, we expect revenues to be in the range of $825 million to $835 million.
對於第二季度,我們預計收入將在 8.25 億美元至 8.35 億美元之間。
This is based on a comparable sales percentage increase in the low double digits on a constant-dollar basis compared to the second quarter of 2018.
這是基於與 2018 年第二季度相比,按固定美元計算的低兩位數的可比銷售額百分比增長。
This also assumes 5 new store openings in the quarter.
這也假設本季度有 5 家新店開業。
We expect gross margin to be flat to up modestly versus Q2 of last year.
我們預計毛利率將與去年第二季度持平或小幅上升。
Our guidance reflects a modest impact from potential new tariffs and also additional costs to airfreight product in order to avoid anticipated port congestion in the Asia region due to the pending tariff increases.
我們的指引反映了潛在新關稅的適度影響以及空運產品的額外成本,以避免由於即將到來的關稅上調而導致亞洲地區預期的港口擁堵。
The negative impact of these costs will be approximately 20 to 25 basis points within gross margin and approximately $0.04 to $0.05 on EPS for the full year 2019.
這些成本的負面影響將是毛利率內約 20 至 25 個基點,以及 2019 年全年每股收益約 0.04 至 0.05 美元。
Most of the impact would come in the back half of the year with the majority in Q3.
大部分影響將發生在今年下半年,其中大部分發生在第三季度。
I should note that roughly $0.02 to $0.03 of this impact would be incurred regardless of whether new tariffs are imposed.
我應該指出,無論是否徵收新關稅,都會產生大約 0.02 至 0.03 美元的影響。
We are committing to higher airfreight usage as a hedge against disruption in ocean shipping lanes as we approach the key dates related to tariff increases.
隨著我們接近與關稅上調相關的關鍵日期,我們致力於提高空運使用率,以對沖海運航線的中斷。
This will ensure delivery of new product for our guests on time.
這將確保按時為我們的客人提供新產品。
We expect the SG&A rate in Q2 to be flat as we continue to invest in growth drivers for our business that fuel top line momentum.
我們預計第二季度的 SG&A 率將持平,因為我們將繼續投資於推動業務增長的增長動力,從而推動收入增長。
We see larger opportunity to leverage SG&A in the back half of the year and we continue to expect modest leverage on the year.
我們看到在今年下半年利用 SG&A 的機會更大,我們繼續預計今年會有適度的槓桿率。
Assuming a tax rate of 28% and approximately 131 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, we expect diluted earnings per share in the second quarter to be in the range of $0.86 to $0.88 versus EPS of $0.71 a year ago.
假設稅率為 28%,稀釋後的加權平均流通股約為 1.31 億股,我們預計第二季度的稀釋後每股收益將在 0.86 美元至 0.88 美元之間,而一年前的每股收益為 0.71 美元。
For the full year 2019, we now expect revenue to be in the range of $3.73 billion to $3.77 billion.
對於 2019 年全年,我們現在預計收入將在 37.3 億美元至 37.7 億美元之間。
This is based on a comparable sales percentage increase in the low double digits on a constant-dollar basis.
這是基於在固定美元基礎上低兩位數的可比銷售額百分比增長。
We continue to expect to open approximately 40 to 50 company-operated stores in 2019.
我們繼續預計 2019 年將開設約 40 至 50 家公司自營店。
This includes 25 to 30 stores in our international markets and represents a square footage percentage increase in the mid-teens range.
這包括我們國際市場上的 25 到 30 家商店,並且在十幾歲左右的範圍內增加了平方英尺的百分比。
We expect gross margin for the year to expand modestly primarily driven by continued product margin improvement.
我們預計今年毛利率將溫和增長,主要受產品利潤率持續改善的推動。
We expect SG&A for the full year to leverage modestly.
我們預計全年的 SG&A 將適度利用槓桿。
We expect our fiscal year 2019 diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $4.51 to $4.58.
我們預計我們 2019 財年的攤薄後每股收益將在 4.51 美元至 4.58 美元之間。
Our EPS guidance is based on 131 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the year.
我們的每股收益指引基於 1.31 億股稀釋加權平均本年度流通股。
This range takes into account approximately $0.04 to $0.05 of additional costs within gross margin related to the tariffs and airfreight that I mentioned earlier.
這個範圍考慮了我前面提到的與關稅和空運相關的毛利率中大約 0.04 美元到 0.05 美元的額外成本。
We expect our adjusted effective tax rate to be approximately 28% in 2019.
我們預計 2019 年調整後的有效稅率約為 28%。
We assume the Canadian dollar at $0.75 to the U.S. dollar for 2019 as well as Q2.
我們假設 2019 年和第二季度的加元兌美元匯率為 0.75 美元。
We continue to expect capital expenditures to be approximately $265 million to $275 million for the fiscal year 2019.
我們繼續預計 2019 財年的資本支出約為 2.65 億美元至 2.75 億美元。
This increase versus 2018 reflects a ramp-up of our store renovation and relocation program, new store openings, technology investments and other corporate infrastructure projects.
與 2018 年相比,這一增長反映了我們的門店翻新和搬遷計劃、新店開業、技術投資和其他企業基礎設施項目的增加。
In closing, we remain excited with the momentum we're seeing in the business as our teams are executing our Power of Three strategic plan.
最後,我們對我們在業務中看到的勢頭感到興奮,因為我們的團隊正在執行我們的“三個力量”戰略計劃。
And now back to Calvin for some closing remarks.

While it's been reported there is some recent softening in the apparel space, there is no doubt that 2019 is off to a great start for us.
雖然據報導,服裝領域最近出現了一些疲軟,但毫無疑問,2019 年對我們來說是一個良好的開端。
We are building upon momentum of the past year and instilling confidence in our long-term growth plans.
我們正在鞏固過去一年的勢頭,並為我們的長期增長計劃注入信心。
With each new market and innovation, we are inspired by the way in which our guests, both existing and new to the brand, are responding to lululemon.
對於每一個新的市場和創新,我們都會受到品牌現有和新客人對 lululemon 的反應方式的啟發。
Our vision to ignite a community of people to live the Sweatlife is resonating strongly with guests and provides many growth opportunities for us ahead.
我們的願景是點燃一個人的社區,過著 Sweatlife 的生活,這引起了客人的強烈共鳴,並為我們提供了許多未來的發展機會。
We remain laser focused on leveraging our strengths and creating opportunities to ensure lululemon continues to rise above the near-term challenges being faced by others.

Congrats on another great quarter, guys.
恭喜你們又一個偉大的季度,伙計們。
I guess maybe first, could you elaborate on the current momentum that you're seeing in the business, if you've seen any impact from the recent lateral apparel softness that you mentioned and just how you'd rank back half opportunities maybe by category?
我想也許首先,您能否詳細說明您在業務中看到的當前勢頭,如果您已經看到您提到的最近橫向服裝柔軟度的任何影響,以及您如何按類別對後半機會進行排名?
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Yes.
是的。
Sure, Matt.
當然,馬特。
In terms of Q2, we remain very happy with the momentum we're seeing in the business, which is reflected in our comp guidance of the plus low double digit, which is on top of a 19% last year.
就第二季度而言,我們仍然對我們在業務中看到的勢頭感到非常滿意,這反映在我們的正低兩位數的複合指導中,高於去年的 19%。
So the business has continued to see very strong trading into the quarter.
因此,該業務在本季度繼續保持非常強勁的交易。
And that growth is coming across all levers of the Power of Three.
這種增長正在跨越“三之力量”的所有槓桿。
In product, our men's business, as we shared, up 33%, continues to be very strong across all categories: tops, boxers and the bottom business.
正如我們所分享的,在產品方面,我們的男裝業務增長了 33%,在所有類別中繼續保持強勁勢頭:上衣、拳擊手和下裝業務。
And our women's business equally is showing very solid and very strong growth, in particular, bottoms, driven by leggings and joggers.
我們的女裝業務同樣呈現出非常穩固和非常強勁的增長,尤其是緊身褲和慢跑褲推動的下裝。
And we -- with what we're going to be launching in terms of newness, that momentum, we believe, will continue as we continue to feed the core with more innovation and test and learn into new categories and build out the key categories we want to win, being yoga, train and run.
而且我們——隨著我們將要推出的新品,我們相信,隨著我們繼續為核心提供更多創新、測試和學習新類別並建立我們的關鍵類別,這種勢頭將繼續下去想贏,做瑜伽,訓練和跑步。
So we feel very good about the product launches that are dropping and the momentum and the way the guest is reacting to the product as they see it.
因此,我們對正在下降的產品發布以及勢頭以及客人對產品的反應方式感到非常滿意。

Irwin Bernard Boruchow - MD and Senior Specialty Retail Analyst
Let me add my congrats.
讓我補充一下我的祝賀。
I guess I'm going to throw this question to Stuart.
我想我要把這個問題扔給斯圖爾特。
It's very compelling stuff you've got on China with the .cn rollout.
隨著 .cn 的推出,您在中國獲得了非常引人注目的內容。
I guess just over time, Stuart, can you maybe talk about how you see the mix of your digital business in China, the .cn site versus Tmall, and then maybe relative profitability between the 2, if there's any nuances we should keep in mind?
我想隨著時間的推移,Stuart,您能否談談您如何看待您在中國的數字業務組合、.cn 網站與天貓,以及兩者之間的相對盈利能力,如果我們應該記住任何細微差別的話?
Stuart C. Haselden - COO & Executive VP of International
Stuart C. Haselden - COO & Executive VP of International
Sure, Ike.
當然,艾克。
So the business vision that we have for China is certainly more heavily considered from a digital standpoint than North America.
因此,從數字的角度來看,我們對中國的商業願景肯定比北美更受重視。
As we've said in some of our prior conversations, we can see the business in China being 50% online.
正如我們在之前的一些對話中所說,我們可以看到中國的業務有 50% 是在線的。
And the structure of the industry in China is also important in creating that environment to make that possible.
中國的行業結構對於創造這樣的環境也很重要。
And when I say that structure, I think part of that is the marketplace structure that we're all aware of with WeChat and Tmall and the dominance that they have in the Chinese market.
當我說這種結構時,我認為部分原因是我們都知道微信和天貓的市場結構以及它們在中國市場的主導地位。
So we participate in that, but we're very cognizant of how our brand is being introduced and developed.
所以我們參與其中,但我們非常了解我們的品牌是如何被引入和發展的。
And we take important steps to ensure that we have a very premium positioning for the brand.
我們採取重要措施確保我們對該品牌擁有非常優質的定位。
We see Tmall continuing to be an important part of the overall digital business mix for us.
我們認為天貓將繼續成為我們整體數字業務組合的重要組成部分。
We see our own .cn site and our WeChat site emerging and taking a larger proportion of our digital business in time.
我們看到我們自己的 .cn 網站和我們的微信網站正在興起,並及時佔據了我們數字業務的更大比例。
We're making investments now to make that possible, and we'll share those details with you as they develop.
我們現在正在進行投資以實現這一目標,我們將在開發過程中與您分享這些細節。
But the launch of the .cn site or the relaunch, I should say, of the .cn site that we mentioned in the first quarter is an important part of that.
但是我們在第一季度提到的.cn網站的啟動或重新啟動.cn網站應該說是其中的重要部分。
And generally, just the expansion of the store footprint will drive brand awareness.
一般來說,僅僅擴大店鋪足跡就會提高品牌知名度。
We're seeing great traction broadly across China and a lot of signals that are suggesting that our brand is gaining traction.
我們在中國看到了廣泛的吸引力,並且許多信號表明我們的品牌正在獲得牽引力。
So that will support and fuel traffic in our business across all channels.
因此,這將支持和推動我們所有渠道的業務流量。
So I think those are the things I'd point to in terms of just how we're thinking about the digital part of our business there.
因此,我認為這些就是我要指出的關於我們如何考慮我們業務的數字部分的事情。
Irwin Bernard Boruchow - MD and Senior Specialty Retail Analyst
Irwin Bernard Boruchow - MD and Senior Specialty Retail Analyst
Can you just elaborate on the margin structure of the .cn versus Tmall over time opportunity?
您能否詳細說明 .cn 與天貓隨著時間的推移機會的保證金結構?
Stuart C. Haselden - COO & Executive VP of International
Stuart C. Haselden - COO & Executive VP of International
Yes.
是的。
For sure.
當然。
Overall, there is an advantage of -- from a digital versus stores that is directionally consistent with what we see in North America in terms of the bottom line contribution margin for the digital business versus stores.
總體而言,就數字業務與商店的底線貢獻率而言,數字業務與商店的優勢在方向上與我們在北美看到的一致。
That said, there is incremental costs that we incur to operate on the Tmall platform, but it's still an attractive contribution margin that is still higher than what we see in our store business.
也就是說,我們在天貓平台上運營會產生增量成本,但這仍然是一個有吸引力的邊際貢獻,仍然高於我們在商店業務中看到的水平。

Kate Bridget Fitzsimons - Associate VP
Yes.

Congratulations on the strong results.

I guess my question would be the 2019 outlook on gross margin.
我想我的問題是 2019 年的毛利率前景。
Just how should we factor in some of these nonmerchandise items?
我們應該如何考慮其中一些非商品項目?
PJ, you did mention the 20, 30 basis points headwind from flying in goods ahead of the port congestion.
PJ,您確實提到了在港口擁堵之前空運貨物帶來的 20、30 個基點的逆風。
But can we think about some of these other merchandise items are items such as rent, occupancy and the product and supply chain costs as well?
但是我們是否可以考慮這些其他商品項目中的一些項目,例如租金、入住率以及產品和供應鏈成本?
Patrick J. Guido - CFO
Patrick J. Guido - CFO
Yes.
是的。
Kate, this is PJ.
凱特,這是 PJ。
So what's driving gross margin going forward, so the biggest driver does remain lower product costs.
那麼是什麼推動了毛利率的發展,所以最大的推動力仍然是降低產品成本。
We did have a pickup in markdown and mix.
我們確實在降價和混合方面有所回升。
We do see remaining opportunities in scale segmenting the supply chain, greater efficiency across the distribution network.
我們確實看到了規模分割供應鏈、提高整個分銷網絡效率的剩餘機會。
That said, so there are some pressures, and those pressures are related to DC investments.
也就是說,存在一些壓力,這些壓力與 DC 投資有關。
So we opened Toronto.
所以我們開了多倫多。
There were some startup costs there.
那裡有一些啟動成本。
Our collocated and our international stores carry higher rent, so we'll see a little bit of pressure from -- on occupancy and depreciation.
我們的並置店和國際店的租金較高,因此我們會看到來自入住率和折舊的一些壓力。
But that, for the quarter, was relatively minimal.
但是,對於本季度而言,這一數字相對較小。
And then going forward, we're going to continue to develop product, right, so new categories, bras, outerwear.
然後繼續前進,我們將繼續開發產品,對,新品類,胸罩,外套。
So we are spending money to continue to build out our product assortment.
因此,我們正在花錢繼續擴大我們的產品種類。
So again, net-net, we'll see modest expansion, as we've guided to, but there will be a little bit of pressure from those items I just mentioned.
再說一次,net-net,我們會看到適度的擴張,正如我們所引導的那樣,但我剛才提到的那些項目會帶來一點壓力。

And any learnings thus far for your go-forward strategy?

Or is this predicated on the List 4?

I'll kick off and just comment on both Robert Geller and lab.
我將開始對 Robert Geller 和實驗室發表評論。
On Robert Geller, we're very pleased with the results of the collaboration.
在羅伯特蓋勒身上,我們對合作的結果非常滿意。
And similar to many of the collaborations we've done, our guests are responding very favorably in general to this newness and an opportunity to either buy into a new category or a unique aesthetic.
與我們所做的許多合作類似,我們的客人總體上對這種新穎性和購買新品類或獨特美學的機會反應非常積極。
With Robert Geller, in particular, some of the key learnings was this one showed up very strong from an international perspective, in particular, in our Asia Pacific markets, which is really exciting when we think of the opportunity for these collabs going forward.
尤其是羅伯特蓋勒,一些關鍵的經驗是,從國際角度來看,這一經驗非常強大,特別是在我們的亞太市場,當我們想到這些合作未來的機會時,這真的很令人興奮。
The marketing buzz through social was significant behind this collaboration, which is exciting as we look for ways to continue to leverage our marketing and create an impact and acquire new guests and raise the awareness of the brand, which then leads to the final learning, which is it responded very well with recruiting new guests into the brand, but equally, our current guests were heavily engaged in the product, which is a great opportunity for us as we look for ways to continue to broaden and increase the share of wallet with our highly loyal and high spenders.
通過社交媒體的營銷熱潮在這次合作背後非常重要,這令人興奮,因為我們正在尋找方法來繼續利用我們的營銷並創造影響力並獲得新客人並提高品牌知名度,然後導致最終的學習,即是不是它在為品牌招募新客人方面反應很好,但同樣,我們的現有客人也大量參與了該產品,這對我們來說是一個很好的機會,因為我們正在尋找方法來繼續擴大和增加我們的錢包份額高度忠誠和高消費。
So overall, the collaboration performed very well with a lot of key learnings.
所以總的來說,合作表現非常好,有很多關鍵的學習。
In the lab, those ideas will feed into our lab, of which we shared earlier.
在實驗室中,這些想法將反饋到我們之前分享的實驗室中。
We're planning some shop-in-shops in the fall, and we'll continue to expand rollout from there.
我們計劃在秋季開設一些店中店,並將繼續擴大推廣範圍。
Patrick J. Guido - CFO
Patrick J. Guido - CFO
And then on the second question about tariffs, I'll point out just a few things.
然後關於關稅的第二個問題,我將指出幾件事。
So first, I think it's important to mention that our direct exposure to China is relatively small with 6% of our total finished goods exported for China to the U.S. and (inaudible) for tariffs.
因此,首先,我認為有必要提一下,我們對中國的直接敞口相對較小,我們向中國出口到美國的製成品總量的 6% 和(聽不清)關稅。
To answer your question, so currently, under the tranche 3 tariffs, only 1% of our finished goods are subject to that.
為了回答您的問題,目前,在第 3 檔關稅下,我們只有 1% 的製成品受此影響。
The balance, the additional 5%, would be subject -- that would be part of the tranche 4 tariffs.
餘額,即額外的 5%,將成為第 4 部分關稅的一部分。
So that's the direct impact.
這就是直接影響。
The better part of the expense is really coming from this indirect exposure we have.
大部分費用實際上來自我們擁有的這種間接曝光。
We're anticipating port congestion right around the timeframe, starting in that mid- to late July timeframe.
我們預計港口將在 7 月中下旬開始出現擁堵。
And we think it's prudent and important to deliver new product for our guests and protect the sales associated with those goods.
我們認為為我們的客人提供新產品並保護與這些商品相關的銷售是謹慎和重要的。
So really, the larger airfreight that I mentioned.
所以真的,我提到的更大的空運。

What we see in our international regions is consistent with our experience in North America in that as we open new stores, we see our web business, our e-com business, accelerate in and around the trade area where we open those stores.
我們在國際地區看到的情況與我們在北美的經驗是一致的,因為當我們開設新店時,我們看到我們的網絡業務、我們的電子商務業務在我們開設這些商店的貿易區及其周邊地區加速發展。
The -- and we -- but we also use our digital business, our e-com business, as a guide to understand where we might open, look to open new stores, where our demand and brand awareness is gaining traction.
- 和我們 - 但我們也使用我們的數字業務,我們的電子商務業務,作為了解我們可能在哪裡開店的指南,希望開新店,我們的需求和品牌知名度正在獲得牽引力。
That is an indicator that factors into how we rate markets and trade areas as potential candidates for new stores.
這是一個指標,會影響我們如何將市場和貿易區域視為新店的潛在候選者。
So that experience has proven consistent in our international markets.

We do introduce a number of drops on a weekly basis.
我們每週都會推出一些下降。
The guest responds very well to those.

We monitor but don't share sort of the makeup as a percentage of sales.
我們監控但不分享某種化妝品佔銷售額的百分比。
But overall, core is driving our business.

We take franchises and innovate behind them, and I think we shared Metal Vent that's coming in Q3, tail end of Q2, which is a wonderful innovation on a very powerful, strong franchise.

That will continue to drive.

And as we test and learn into new categories, as we expand into yoga, train and run and OTC, which are the areas that we mentioned, our focus areas for the merchants and our product team to design into, the growth is coming from core.
隨著我們測試和學習新的類別,隨著我們擴展到瑜伽、訓練和跑步和 OTC,這些是我們提到的領域,我們為商家和產品團隊設計的重點領域,增長來自核心.

And we are very excited about the potential of this membership and the platform to drive new guest acquisition, which is what we're seeing with the program, which is super exciting; driving guest loyalty and engagement into the brand, which is what we expected; but also, on the back of having to be a revenue stream for the business in a way in which we can achieve and drive that engagement through that system.

John David Kernan - MD and Senior Research Analyst
I wanted to go back to the buy online, pick up in-store.
我想回到網上購買,在店內取貨。
I think it's scaling from 35 to 150 stores.
我認為它正在從 35 家商店擴展到 150 家商店。
And it's a full rollout, I think, you said, by the end of the third quarter.
我認為,你說,到第三季度末,這是全面推出。
What are your learnings from this?
你從中學到了什麼?
And how much of a incremental driver of demand do you think this can be?
您認為這會增加多少需求增量?
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
I think -- so you're right.
我認為 - 所以你是對的。
We rolled up to 150 stores, and our plan is to have all stores up and running by end of Q3, which will put us in great standing for the holiday.
我們總共開設了 150 家門店,我們的計劃是在第三季度末讓所有門店都開業運營,這將使我們在節日期間保持良好狀態。
And I think we'll learn a lot when that happens.
我認為當這種情況發生時我們會學到很多東西。
As we're rolling out, we're happy with the results.
隨著我們的推出,我們對結果感到滿意。
Equally, internally, operationally, 80% of the orders that are placed are ready for pickup within 1 hour, which I think is an important internal metric for us because it just sort of talks to the operational readiness and engagement so that as the demand from the guests accelerates, we're ready to be there to service them.
同樣,在內部,在運營方面,80% 的訂單都可以在 1 小時內準備好取貨,我認為這對我們來說是一個重要的內部指標,因為它只是在討論運營準備情況和參與度,以便隨著需求客人加速,我們準備在那里為他們服務。
As we roll out to more stores, we're able to position it differently within the website experience and the checkout, making it a lot more known and really start to market it.
隨著我們向更多商店推出,我們能夠在網站體驗和結賬中對其進行不同的定位,使其更加知名並真正開始推銷它。
So early indication is encouraging.
因此,早期跡象令人鼓舞。
We think it's a necessity in leveraging our omni strategy, which is one of our pillars of growth.
我們認為這是利用我們的全方位戰略的必要條件,這是我們的增長支柱之一。
So we know we need to do it.
所以我們知道我們需要這樣做。
And I think this fourth quarter, when we're in full rollout and we're marketing it aggressively on our website and in the checkout, that guests really know it's an option across the full fleet, we'll really learn.
而且我認為在第四季度,當我們全面推出並在我們的網站和結賬時積極營銷時,客人真的知道這是整個車隊的一個選擇,我們真的會學習。
But I'm encouraged by it, and I think it'll be a wonderful way to continue to drive our traffic into the store, drive that incremental pickup and contribute to the top line.
但我對此感到鼓舞,我認為這將是一種很好的方式,可以繼續將我們的流量吸引到商店,推動增量提貨並為收入做出貢獻。

Got it.

And then just on that topic.
然後就這個話題。
Obviously, the Lincoln Park store opening in Chicago, is this a test?
很明顯,芝加哥林肯公園店開業,這是一個考驗嗎?
Or is this like larger-scale, experiential-type store, something you think that you're considering scaling even greater?
或者這就像更大規模的體驗式商店,你認為你正在考慮擴大規模?
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Well, it's definitely a test.
嗯,這絕對是一個考驗。
We -- as you know, our vision is to be an experiential brand.
我們——如您所知,我們的願景是成為一個體驗式品牌。
And we know we can deliver those experiences both within the store and outside of the store, and we do that very effectively across the fleet today.
而且我們知道我們可以在店內和店外提供這些體驗,而且我們今天在整個車隊中都非常有效地做到了這一點。
What Lincoln Park will allow us to do is to bring a lot of those experiences inside the 4 walls into the community on a consistent basis.
林肯公園將允許我們做的是將 4 堵牆內的許多體驗以一致的方式帶入社區。
So it is a test, and we will learn from that and then figure out how, within our flexible fleet that we have today from seasonal stores to small up to our large format, this, we believe, could become just another mix within our portfolio of how we go into a market and deliver our experience to our guests.
所以這是一個測試,我們將從中吸取教訓,然後弄清楚,在我們今天擁有的從季節性商店到小型到大型格式的靈活機隊中,我們相信,這可能成為我們產品組合中的另一種組合我們如何進入市場並向客人提供我們的體驗。
But it's a test.
但這是一個考驗。
We're going to learn, and we'll go from there.
我們要學習,我們將從那裡開始。

Really good job here.
在這里工作真的很好。
Calvin, I think in your comments about the strength of the women's business, you talked about the bottoms category continuing to be a leading category for you.
Calvin,我認為在您對女性業務實力的評論中,您談到了底褲類別繼續成為您的領先類別。
But what was interesting to us was the mention and callout of joggers.
但對我們來說有趣的是慢跑者的提及和標註。
Can you talk about how your female consumer is expanding their aperture with respect to your offering such that you're gaining a larger share of closet?
你能談談你的女性消費者是如何擴大他們對你的產品的興趣的,這樣你就可以獲得更大的壁櫥份額嗎?
It seems like that is starting to manifest in a way that could serve you well from the perspective of creating a bigger moat around the customer that you've invested in all these years.

Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director

Yes.

No, for sure.
不,當然。
What I would tell you in terms of the (technical difficulty) of our business, both across men's and women's, but I'll speak specifically to women's, is the number of new guests we're seeing as well as our reactivated guests in addition to a current active guest.
關於我們業務的(技術難度),無論是男裝還是女裝,我要告訴你的是我們看到的新客人的數量以及我們重新激活的客人給當前活躍的客人。
So bottoms continues to be the #1 driver of new guest acquisition, and both leggings and joggers are performing incredibly well at achieving that, as well as we dial up our digital marketing initiatives and our e-mail campaigns.
因此,底褲仍然是吸引新客人的第一大驅動力,緊身褲和慢跑褲在實現這一目標方面表現得非常出色,而且我們也加大了數字營銷計劃和電子郵件活動的力度。
We're proving that many of those tactics are proving very effective to reactivate guests into the brand.
我們證明,其中許多策略對於重新激活客人進入品牌非常有效。
And then as you've mentioned, to grow that share of wallet, which is equally something that we're focused on and exciting.
然後正如你所提到的,增加錢包的份額,這同樣是我們關注和令人興奮的事情。
So bottoms really is a very balanced growth across those 3 pillars.
所以底部確實是這三個支柱之間非常平衡的增長。
When we look to building out our core and filling in the assortment opportunities we have around yoga, train and run as well as OTC, we expect that much of that will drive the share of wallet with our existing guests because what we're doing is truly bringing incremental assortment and choice to her and him, but in this case, to her in the categories in which she sweats today where we don't have product offering, but we know we have an opportunity to deliver it through our unique lens of science of feel.
當我們尋求建立我們的核心並填補我們在瑜伽、訓練和跑步以及 OTC 周圍的各種機會時,我們預計其中大部分將推動我們現有客人的錢包份額,因為我們正在做的是真正為她和他帶來更多的分類和選擇,但在這種情況下,在她今天出汗的類別中,我們沒有提供產品,但我們知道我們有機會通過我們獨特的鏡頭來提供它感覺科學。
So moving forward, we expect to continue to grow that share of wallet and, as you mentioned, depth of wardrobe and see a lot of opportunity to do that by just expanding into the sweat categories we already have a relationship for or with her today.
因此,展望未來,我們希望繼續增加錢包的份額,正如你提到的那樣,增加衣櫥的深度,並看到很多機會通過擴展到我們今天已經與她建立關係或與她建立關係的汗水類別來做到這一點。

Camilo R. Lyon - MD & Head of US Consumer Research
Great.

And my follow-up question relates to the differences between your existing guests' purchasing behavior and the new guests that you're bringing into the store and into the brand.
我的後續問題涉及您現有客人的購買行為與您帶入商店和品牌的新客人之間的差異。
So is there any color you could provide in terms of this -- the average spend between those 2 cohorts?
那麼你有什麼可以提供的顏色嗎——這兩個群組之間的平均支出?
I think that would be helpful in determining what the opportunity is of taking that new guest up that spend curve and have that person or that guest look like a more mature, higher spending consumer over X amount of time or months or what have you.
我認為這將有助於確定將新客人帶到消費曲線上的機會是什麼,並讓那個人或那個客人看起來像一個更成熟、更高消費的消費者 X 時間或幾個月或你有什麼。
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Calvin McDonald - CEO & Director
Yes.
是的。
We don't share sort of the average spend across our different guests.
我們不會分享不同客人的平均支出。
What I can tell you is, directionally, that our e-mail file growth continues to be very strong as well as our new guest acquisition.
我可以告訴你的是,在方向上,我們的電子郵件文件增長繼續非常強勁,以及我們的新客戶獲取。
And as we're building our CRM capability, our ability to then migrate or trade up those guests into new categories or deeper into the categories they're in is proving to be a very effective way in which we're keeping the guests very engaged and active as well as increasing their share of wallet but equally focused on our high-value guests, which we have incredible loyalty retention numbers within retail.
隨著我們建立 CRM 能力,我們將這些客人遷移或交易到新的類別或更深入到他們所在的類別的能力被證明是一種非常有效的方式,可以讓客人保持高度參與和活躍以及增加他們的錢包份額,但同樣關注我們的高價值客人,我們在零售業擁有令人難以置信的忠誠度保留數字。
So they're highly engaged.
所以他們非常投入。
The retention numbers are very high.
保留數字非常高。
And getting them to continue to engage in the category and drive growth is proving very (technical difficulty) was a big area of focus for us and something that we're really excited about as we look to yoga, train, run and OTC as categories where we can expand the assortment with that engagement and retention to be able to increase the share of wallet.
事實證明,讓他們繼續參與該類別並推動增長非常(技術難度)是我們關注的一個重要領域,當我們將瑜伽、訓練、跑步和 OTC 視為類別時,我們對此感到非常興奮我們可以通過參與度和留存率來擴大分類,從而增加錢包的份額。

PJ, I wanted to just follow up on the potential port congestion.
PJ,我只想跟進潛在的港口擁堵情況。
I'm wondering what you're hearing from your production department around the risk of port congestion.
我想知道您從生產部門那裡聽到的關於港口擁堵風險的消息。
Is it that ocean cargo capacity is tight right now?
是不是現在海運運力緊張?
Or are there other signals that your production department is seeing that suggests we could see this port congestion either late second quarter, early third quarter?
還是您的生產部門看到的其他信號表明我們可能會在第二季度末或第三季度初看到港口擁堵?
And with regard to your deliveries in particular, it sounds like you've protected all of your deliveries from these potential delays, but I just want to confirm that you don't have any inventory on order that would be at risk of late delivery.
特別是關於您的交付,聽起來您已經保護了所有交付免受這些潛在延遲的影響,但我只想確認您沒有任何可能存在延遲交付風險的訂單庫存。

We are protecting our fall deliveries, and that's why we're doing it.
我們正在保護我們的秋季交付,這就是我們這樣做的原因。
It's a hedge.
這是一個樹籬。
So we're eliminating the risk.
所以我們正在消除風險。
I mean there's always summers, but we're eliminating most of it by utilizing airfreight and not getting caught up in the congestion, which is we've seen this before due to tariffs, companies trying to get out ahead of it.
我的意思是總是有夏天,但我們通過利用空運來消除大部分夏天,而不是陷入擁堵,這是我們之前因為關稅而看到的,公司試圖搶在它前面。
But there is also a broader issue with carriers consolidating cargo.
但是,承運人合併貨物還有一個更廣泛的問題。
They refer to it as transshipments.
他們將其稱為轉運。
But that's a separate issue that's related more to carriers.
但這是一個與運營商更多相關的單獨問題。
But that is an issue we're dealing with as well.

So hopefully, that answers your question on port congestion.

On SG&A, so we are committed to modest SG&A leverage for the year.

We remain focused on that.

As we mentioned before, we're using strong performance to invest in current and long-term growth, and we're seeing a result from that.
正如我們之前提到的,我們正在利用強勁的業績來投資於當前和長期的增長,我們正在看到結果。
During this quarter, we leaned into digital marketing focused on building brand awareness, driving new guest acquisition.
在本季度,我們傾向於專注於建立品牌知名度、推動新客戶獲取的數字營銷。
As Calvin talked about, we're expanding our testing of new growth vehicles, loyalty, Selfcare focus.

And then we continue to invest in our North American online guest experience and data and analytics to drive conversion.
然後我們繼續投資於我們的北美在線客戶體驗以及數據和分析,以推動轉化。
So the last few quarters have seen -- we've ramped up our investment.

We'll start to see the benefit of those in the back half.
我們將開始看到後半部分的好處。
And for Q2, we're calling for flat on SG&A.

And we see the bigger opportunities in our biggest quarters, Q3, Q4, to add leverage to SG&A.
在我們最大的季度,第三季度,第四季度,我們看到了更大的機會來增加 SG&A 的影響力。
But for now, we're still making investments, and we still feel like that's the right strategy for the business.

讓我談談我們供應鏈中的驅動因素,這些驅動因素在過去幾年中實現了改進,然後我想更具體地說明你最近提出的問題。
So we were able to build the programs that delivered the larger, more step function improvement in '16 and '17.
因此,我們能夠構建在 '16 和 '17 中提供更大、更多階躍功能改進的程序。
And we've been able to take that forward into '18 and '19.
我們已經能夠將其推進到 18 和 19 年。
And it's a part of our long-term guidance that PJ outlined at our Analyst Day to deliver modest gross margin improvement over the next few years.
這是 PJ 在分析師日概述的長期指導的一部分,以在未來幾年內實現適度的毛利率改善。
There's really 4 things that are driving that: scale, price breaks from volume increases; second thing is segmentation of our supply chain as we are able to drive more of our assortment into the lower-cost segments of our sourcing strategy; the third thing is transparency as we're able to drive greater degree of specific production standards and costing negotiations across a broader part of our assortment; and the fourth thing is the distribution efficiencies that PJ also mentioned.
確實有 4 件事在推動這一點:規模、價格與數量的增加相衝突;第二件事是我們供應鏈的細分,因為我們能夠將更多的產品分類推向我們採購戰略的低成本部分;第三件事是透明度,因為我們能夠在更廣泛的產品類別中推動更大程度的特定生產標準和成本談判;第四件事是 PJ 也提到的分配效率。
So those 4 things are the drivers of our gross margin improvement.
所以這四件事是我們毛利率提高的驅動力。
They -- we are lapping some very significant improvements.

They will naturally moderate into the future, but we still see significant opportunities over the next several years reflected in our guidance.

And as we've shared, store traffic of plus 8% and over 40% in e-commerce is a good, healthy metric of a highly engaged guest.
正如我們所分享的,電子商務中超過 8% 和超過 40% 的商店客流量是高度參與客人的一個良好、健康的指標。
