Biggest Revenue Drivers
Total revenue: $5,164.5M+62.7% YoY
6.0% comparable sales increase driven by 5.5% increase in sales per transaction and 0.5% increase in transactions across footwear, apparel and hardlines
Acquired September 8, 2025; proforma comparable sales increased 0.6% for the period
Largest Expense Items
$480.4M from Foot Locker Business partially offset by $174.5M litigation settlement income; remaining increase from strategic digital and in-store investments
Severance, store closing charges, legal fees and acquisition-related costs for Foot Locker integration
Margins: Gross margin declined 411 basis points to 32.59% due primarily to lower margins in Foot Locker (292 bps) and a 83 bps inventory write-down charge. DICK's Business gross margin declined 36 bps driven by sales mix and higher shipping, partially offset by supply chain leverage. Operating margin declined 280 bps to 8.73%, though this includes $53.8M merger and integration costs.
Watch Items from the Filing
- Foot Locker acquisition integration charges of $500M-$750M estimated pre-tax, with $96.5M incurred in Q1 2026; additional ~$200M planned for full year 2026
- Foot Locker segment profit margin extremely thin at 0.98% of sales ($17.5M on $1.79B revenue); business targeting return to profitability with $110-$150M segment profit for full year 2026
- Foot Locker comparable sales (0.6% proforma) significantly lag DICK's Business (6.0%), indicating ongoing turnaround challenges despite Fast Break store initiative expansion to ~100 locations
- Effective tax rate increased to 28.3% from 24.0% YoY due to unfavorable tax impacts from Foot Locker's cumulative losses in certain foreign jurisdictions subject to valuation allowance
- Securities litigation and derivative litigation ongoing; District Court dismissed some inventory shrinkage claims but allowed certain inventory-related claims to proceed; potential material exposure uncertain

• Operating cash flow swung to positive $277M in Q2 2026 from negative $248M in Q4 2025, indicating improved working capital management.
⚠ Q4 2025 operating income collapsed to $93M (2.2% margin) from $452M in Q3 2025 — worst quarter in trend — raises seasonality/execution concerns.
