Additionally, beginning in fiscal 2025, we revised our method for calculating comparable sales to include Warehouse Sale stores beginning in the stores' 14th full month of operations, similar to our other store locations.

On March 11, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $1.25 per share on the Company's common stock and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable in cash on April 10, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 27, 2026. This dividend represents an increase of 3% over the Company's previous quarterly per share amount and is equivalent to an annualized dividend of $5.00 per share.

On September 8, 2025, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Foot Locker, Inc. ("Foot Locker"), a leading footwear and apparel retailer, pursuant to the definitive merger agreement executed on May 15, 2025. Total consideration exchanged for the acquisition was $2.5 billion, which primarily consisted of $2.1 billion in share consideration for the issuance of 9.6 million shares of DICK'S Sporting Goods common stock, $223.0 million in cash consideration and $111.6 million from the Company's pre-existing equity ownership in Foot Locker. The Company's current period results reflect Foot Locker's operations subsequent to the acquisition close date, other than proforma comparable sales as noted in the supplemental financial information tables below.

As previously announced, the Company has initiated a review of unproductive assets which includes optimizing inventory, closing underperforming stores, and right-sizing assets that don’t align with our go-forward vision for the Foot Locker Business. These actions, along with merger and integration costs and deferred financing amortization on a bridge facility, are expected to result in pre-tax charges of $500 to 750 million, of which $235.5 million and $390.0 million was recorded during the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2026, respectively.

The Company's Full Year Outlook for 2026 is presented below.

(1)Refer to the section of this release titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations included in tables later in this release under the heading "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations."

The Company is providing the following segment outlook for the DICK’S and Foot Locker Businesses to provide visibility into segment-level performance that is included in the consolidated outlook above. The information below does not include corporate and other expenses, which for fiscal 2026, include Foot Locker acquisition-related costs and litigation and other settlements.

(1)Comparable sales outlook for the Foot Locker Business is on a proforma basis, as Foot Locker will be included in the quarterly comparable store calculation beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, which is when these stores will commence their 14th full month of operations following the date of acquisition.

(2)Segment profit represents operating income for a respective segment. Corporate and other expenses, which represent costs not specifically related to the recurring operations of our segments, are not included in these results as they are not used by the Company to evaluate segment performance.

In addition to reporting the Company's financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company also reports certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, DICK'S Business non-GAAP basis results, including non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share and weighted average diluted shares outstanding, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share and net capital expenditures. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with meaningful supplemental information to assist in evaluating the Company’s ongoing operations and comparing results across reporting periods.

Management further believes that excluding non‑cash changes in the fair value of deferred compensation plan investments—which fluctuate with market performance and are offset within other income—enhances investors’ understanding of underlying trends in selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company also uses these non‑GAAP financial measures internally for budgeting, forecasting and assessing operating performance. These non‑GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s GAAP financial results. Because the methods used by the Company to calculate its non‑GAAP measures may differ from those used by other companies, the non‑GAAP measures presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of the Company’s non‑GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below and are available on the Company’s website at investors.DICKS.com.
