Lululemon Athletica Inc.Lululemon has officially appointed Laura Gentile and Marc Maurer to its board of directors, expanding the board from nine to 11 members. The appointments follow a cooperation agreement with founder Chip Wilson in May, ending a proxy feud. Gentile, a former ESPN chief marketer, will serve as a Class I director, while Maurer, former co-CEO of On, will serve as a Class III director. As part of the deal, Wilson agreed to standstill and voting provisions until 30 days before the 2028 annual meeting nomination deadline. The board expansion comes as Lululemon works to reverse declining Americas sales, with first-quarter net revenue rising 4% to $2.5 billion driven by international growth.
