Sept 4 (Reuters) - Lululemon Athletica ( LULU ) slashed

its annual revenue and profit forecasts on Thursday, signaling a

slowdown in demand going into the crucial holiday season as

consumers cut down spending, alongside tariff pressures.

The yogawear firm now expects annual revenue between $10.85

billion and $11 billion, compared with its prior forecast of

$11.15 billion to $11.30 billion.

It also forecast annual profit between $12.77 and $12.97 per

share, compared with previous expectations of $14.58 to $14.78

apiece.
