Dick’s Sporting Goods stock falls 15% as retailer misses expectations, cites ‘challenging’ footwear market
The retailer now expects weaker annual sales and earnings after quarterly revenue fell short of Wall Street estimates and Foot Locker sales declined 3.6%.
- On Tuesday, Dick's Sporting Goods cut full-year net sales guidance to $21.9 billion–$22.2 billion and earnings per share to $10.94–$11.94, sending shares down 13% in premarket trading after quarterly revenue missed Wall Street expectations.
- Executive Chairman Ed Stack attributed the results to operational headwinds, stating that product launches 'performed below both industry and our expectations,' while cautious consumer spending weighed on demand.
- Dick's stores posted 4.9% comparable-sales growth driven by World Cup results, though revenue of $5.59 billion missed the $5.65 billion expected, while Foot Locker comparable sales declined 3.6%.
- CEO Lauren Hobart said the company remains 'highly confident in the strength of the DICK'S Business,' though management revised Foot Locker's outlook to flat or down 2% as it refines the subsidiary's strategy.
- Dick's acquired Foot Locker for $2.4 billion in 2025 to expand international presence, but the subsidiary's performance continues to weigh on the company's bottom line as integration efforts proceed.
