Lululemon Reveals Second Quarter Fiscal 2018 Results and Malibu Boats Announces Investor Day Event for September
Stocks discussed: (NasdaqGS:LULU) (NasdaqGS:MBUU)

Lululemon Athletica (NasdaqGS:LULU) has announced its second quarter fiscal 2018 results. Highlights include a 25 percent increase of revenue to $724 million USD, as well as a comparable sales increase 20%, or 19% on a constant dollar basis.

Malibu Boats (NasdaqGM:MBUU) will host an Investor Day on Wednesday, September 12, 2018 at 8:00AM ET at various locations near its headquarters in Loudon, Tennessee. The event will feature product demos, presentations by managers, overviews of company strategy and a tour of the company’s manufacturing facility.

Umpire Remains at US Open Despite Controversial Move, Pats’ Gronkowski Gets $4.3 Million in Incentives Added to Contract and Usain Bolt Debuts as Footballer

A controversy ensued at the U.S. Open yesterday after umpire Mohamed Lahyani got up from his seat during a changeover to speak with a struggling Nick Kyrgios. Kyrgios, who had lost his first set and was behind 3-0 in his second against French player Pierre-Hugues Herbert, went on to win the match 4-6, 7-6 (6), 6-3, 6-0 after Lahyani’s intervention. Though U.S. Tennis Association spokesman Chris Widmaier told the Associated Press that Lahyani went “beyond protocol”, he would not be punished due to his “exemplary track record as an international tennis official.”

“He now has a better understanding of what our protocols are and was informed that he needs to stick to those protocols for the rest of the tournament,” Widmaier said. “Each of his matches will be monitored.”

Elsewhere in the tournament Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Alexander Zverev and others won their matches to advance to the next round on the men’s side, and Maria Sharapova, Kiki Bertens, Angelique Kerber and others prevailed on the women’s side.

Tight end Rob Gronkowski of the New England Patriots had his contract reworked to add $4.3 million in incentives, ESPN reports. Of that amount, Gronkowski can earn $1 million in per-game roster bonuses, and by hitting three of the following four incentives: $1.1 million for 70 or more catches, $1.1 million for 1085 receiving yards, $1.1 million for 80 percent playing time and $1.1 million for nine or more touchdown catches. When asked on Tuesday about his expectations for an improved contract, Gronkowski said:

"I'm always open for that. That's not really my focus. I got a long season ahead and just trying to focus on what I need to really do and just let everything else play out."

Eight-time Olympic sprinting gold medalist Usain Bolt played his first football (soccer) game for the Central Coast Mariners today. Bolt himself did not score, but the Mariners ended up winning 6-1 against the Central Coast Select. Bolt, who is on trial with the team, told Fox Sports:

“I was a little bit nervous, but as soon as I got on the field the nerves went away. I wish I had more touches, but I’m not fit yet. In four months I’ll be playing like one of the guys.”

Temperature at US Open Prompts ‘Extreme Heat Policy’, Aaron Rodgers Signs $130 Million Extension with Packers and Unified Korea to Face China for Women’s Basketball Gold at Asian Games

The U.S. Open continues amid a heatwave in New York, where the tournament is being held, leading officials to keep an ‘extreme heat policy’ in effect, according to the Associated Press. This involves the allowing of a 10-minute break between the second and third sets for the women’s singles matches, and between the third and fourth set for the men’s singles matches. Highlights from yesterday include Rafael Nadal’s 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 win over Canadian Vasek Pospisil, Kevin Anderson’s 6-2, 6-4, 6-4 win over France’s Jérémy Chardy, Sloane Stephens 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 win over Ukraine’s Anhelina Kalinina and both Venus and Serena Williams advancing to the next round. The two Williams sisters will play each other on Saturday.

ESPN reports that two-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers has signed a four-year $134 million extension with the Green Bay Packers. The deal involves incentives based on helping the team reach the playoffs and Rodgers finishing in the top three of quarterback ratings, which could see him earning between $176 million and $180 million.

The unified North and South Korean women’s basketball team is playing against China for the gold medal at the Asian Games, The Jakarta Post reports. The two teams play Saturday after China beat Japan 86-74 today, and Korea beat Chinese Taipei 89-66. Last Sunday, the unified women’s Korean canoeing team won the gold medal in the 500 metre event after beating China.

NBC Sports Partners with Premiere League for US Live Events and Madison Square Garden Appoints New Executive VP

Stocks discussed: (NasdaqGS:CMCSA) (NYSE:MSG)

Comcast Corporation’s (NasdaqGS:CMCSA) NBC Sports and the Premier League have announced a series of live fan events across the United States beginning in D.C. in September, the AP reports.
NBC Sports chief marketing officer Jenny Storms told The Associated Press it was “an opportunity to be able to continue to grow the touch points in the United States for Premier League fans as they don’t traditionally get it (in person).”
“This is an evolution,” Storms said. “This is now partnering with the Premier League given how strongly they feel about the U.S. market and given how important the U.S. market is to them as an organization.”

Madison Square Garden (NYSE:MSG) has named Richard Constable as the company’s Executive Vice President, Global Head of Government Relations and Public Affairs, effective immediately. Constable recently served as Senior Vice President, Government Relations and Commercial Contracts for Wyndham Worldwide Corporation.

Stephens, Both Williams and Nadal Advance to Round 2 at US Open, Beckham Jr. Highest-Paid Wide-Receiver in the NFL with New Giants Contract and Indonesian Jonatan Christie Wins Signature Event at Asian Games

Following the surprising first round elimination of Simona Halep yesterday at the U.S. Open, stars such as No.3-seeded Sloane Stephens, Venus and Serena Williams emerged victorious to advance to round two play today. Serena Williams, who missed last year’s U.S. Open to give birth, triumphed over Polish player Magda Linette 6-4, 6-0. The Associated Press quotes Williams on the win:

“The first set was tight. It was my first back here in New York, so that wasn’t the easiest,” Williams told the crowd. “Once I got settled, I started doing what I’m trying to do in practice.”

On the men’s side, four seeded players lost and defending U.S. Open champion Rafael Nadal beat fellow Spanish player David Ferrer after the latter left with an injury.

Odell Beckham Jr. is now the highest-paid wide-receiver in the NFL after signing a five-year contract extension with the New York Giants for $95 million. CNBC quotes Giants’ General Manager Dave Gettleman on the deal:

"You can't force things, it's a negotiation. It's a back and forth, both sides have to be intentional and thoughtful, which we were. It was great negotiating, it was a very good give and take with Kevin (Abrams, the assistant general manager) and Zeke (Sandhu, Beckham's agent). We got to the right answer as far as I'm concerned."

The Jakarta Post reports that Indonesia’s signature event for the Asian Games, badminton, was won by Indonesian Jonatan Christie. “Jojo” beat Taiwan’s Chou Tienchen 21-15 in the final match, securing his gold medal victory.
