DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of Presentation

Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, referred to as "the Company", "we", "us" and "our" unless specified otherwise) is a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high-quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories through our dedicated associates, in-store services and unique specialty shop-in-shops. The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy and Field & Stream stores, as well as GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications and live scorekeeping. The Company offers its products through a content-rich eCommerce platform that is integrated with its store network and provides customers with the convenience and expertise of a 24-hour storefront. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires or otherwise specifies, any reference to "year" is to the Company's fiscal year.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all the disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information. This unaudited interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2019 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2019. Operating results for the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2020 or any other period.

Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts within the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Cash Flows to conform to current year presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." This update requires an entity to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about the entity's leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early application permitted. A modified retrospective approach is required. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, "Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases," and ASU 2018-11, "Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements," which affect certain aspects of the previously issued guidance. Amendments included an additional transition option that allowed entities to apply the new standard on the adoption date and recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, as well as a new practical expedient for lessors. The effective date and transition requirements for ASU 2018-10 and ASU 2018-11 are the same as ASU 2016-02.

The Company adopted these ASU’s during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the optional transition method. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allows us to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, not to reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and not to reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. We also elected the practical expedient related to land easements. We did not elect the practical expedient of hindsight when determining the lease term of existing contracts at the effective date.
We have lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components. We elected the practical expedient to account for non-lease components and the lease components to which they relate, as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. We also elected to keep short-term leases with an initial term of twelve months or less off the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)



Adoption of these standards resulted in recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities of $2.5 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively, as of February 3, 2019. As part of adopting the standard, pre-existing liabilities for deferred rent and various lease incentives were reclassified as a component of the lease assets. Additionally, the Company recorded an $8.0 million adjustment to opening retained earnings, primarily resulting from the impairment of lease assets recognized at adoption. The adoption of these standards did not materially affect our consolidated net income or cash flows. Refer to Note 5 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

2.  Earnings Per Common Share
 
Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares are stock-based awards, which include outstanding stock options, restricted stock and warrants.

The computations for basic and diluted earnings per common share are as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

3.  Fair Value Measurements
 
Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures", outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities as follows:

Level 1:
Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
 
Level 2:
Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)



Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of August 3, 2019 and February 2, 2019 are set forth in the table below (in thousands):
 
Level 1
Description

Assets:
 
 
 
Deferred compensation plan assets held in trust (1)
$

$

Total assets
$
93,174

 
$
77,324

 
 
 
 


(1) 
Consists of investments in various mutual funds made by eligible individuals as part of the Company's deferred compensation plans.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, revolving credit borrowings and certain other liabilities approximated book value due to the short-term nature of these instruments at both August 3, 2019 and February 2, 2019.
 
The Company uses quoted prices in active markets to determine the fair value of the aforementioned assets determined to be Level 1 instruments. The Company's policy for recognition of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize any transfer at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the determination to transfer was made.

4. Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of all contractual performance obligations and transfer of control to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for corresponding goods or services. Substantially all of the Company's sales are single performance obligation arrangements for retail sale transactions for which the transaction price is equivalent to the stated price of the product or service, net of any stated discounts applicable at a point in time. Each sales transaction results in an implicit contract with the customer to deliver a product or service at the point of sale. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, net of sales tax. Sales tax amounts collected from customers that are assessed by a governmental authority are excluded from revenue. The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities occurring subsequent to the transfer of control to the customer to be accounted for as fulfillment costs. Revenue from eCommerce sales, including vendor-direct sales arrangements, is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded.

Deferred gift card revenue - Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the "cards") is deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards. Our gift card liability was $126.6 million and $156.5 million as of August 3, 2019 and February 2, 2019, respectively. During the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, we recognized $4.3 million and $3.5 million of gift card breakage revenue, respectively, and experienced approximately $61.5 million and $62.2 million of gift card redemptions that were included in our gift card liability as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018, respectively. Based on the Company's historical experience, the vast majority of gift card revenue is recognized within twelve months of deferral.

Customer loyalty program - Loyalty program points are accrued at the estimated retail value per point, net of estimated breakage. We estimate the breakage of loyalty points based on historical redemption rates experienced within the loyalty program. Our customer loyalty program liability was $30.7 million and $32.4 million, as of August 3, 2019 and February 2, 2019, respectively. During the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 and August 4, 2018, we recognized approximately $20.8 million and $23.6 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in our customer loyalty program liability as of February 2, 2019 and February 3, 2018, respectively.

5. Leases
The Company leases all of its stores, three of its distribution centers and certain equipment under non-cancellable operating leases that expire at various dates through 2033. Initial lease terms are generally for 10 to 15 years and most store leases contain multiple five-year renewal options and rent escalation provisions. The lease agreements provide primarily for the payment of minimum annual rentals, costs of utilities, property taxes, maintenance, common areas and insurance.
We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Beginning in fiscal 2019, operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining fixed lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. The operating lease asset also includes any fixed lease payments made and includes lease incentives and incurred initial direct costs. Operating lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and may include certain index-based changes in rent and other non-fixed payments for services provided by the lessor. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Additionally, our leases do not contain any material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

6. Debt

Revolving Credit Facility – On June 28, 2019, the Company amended its existing $1.25 billion senior secured revolving credit facility to increase the facility to $1.6 billion, including up to $150 million in the form of letters of credit, and extended the maturity date to June 28, 2024 (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility allows the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to request an increase of up to $500 million in borrowing availability subject to existing or new lenders agreeing to provide such additional revolving commitments.

The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in certain property and assets, including receivables, inventory, deposit accounts, securities accounts and other personal property of the Company and is guaranteed by the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

The annual interest rates applicable to loans under the Credit Facility are, at the Company's option, equal to a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin percentage. The applicable margin percentage for base rate loans is 0.125% to 0.375% and for adjusted LIBOR rate loans is 1.125% to 1.375%, depending on the borrowing availability of the Company.

The Credit Facility contains a covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum adjusted availability of 7.5% of its borrowing base. The Credit Facility also contains certain covenants that could, within specific predefined circumstances, limit the Company's ability to, among other things: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay distributions on, redeem or repurchase capital stock; redeem or repurchase subordinated debt; make certain investments; sell assets; or consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of the Company's assets. Other than in certain limited conditions, the Company is permitted under the Credit Facility to continue to pay dividends and repurchase shares pursuant to its stock repurchase program.

7.  Subsequent Events
 
On August 19, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.275 per share on the Company's common stock and Class B common stock payable on September 27, 2019 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 13, 2019.

On August 22, 2019, the Company sold two of its technology subsidiaries, Blue Sombrero and Affinity Sports, to Stack Sports for $45 million. As part of the sale, the Company also entered into a long-term strategic partnership agreement where we will serve as the official retailer of Stack Sports. Stack Sports has no affiliation with Edward W. Stack, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Company expects to record a pre-tax gain from the sale in the third fiscal quarter of 2019.

The foregoing and additional risk factors are described in more detail in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report and other reports or filings filed or furnished by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2019, filed on March 29, 2019.

OVERVIEW

The Company is a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high-quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories through our dedicated associates, in-store services and unique specialty shop-in-shops. The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy and Field & Stream stores, as well as GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications and live scorekeeping. The Company offers its products through a content-rich eCommerce platform that is integrated with its store network and provides customers with the convenience and expertise of a 24-hour storefront. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires or specifies, any reference to "year" is to the Company's fiscal year.

The primary factors that have historically influenced the Company's profitability include the growth in its number of stores and selling square footage, the continued integration of eCommerce with brick and mortar stores, growth in consolidated same store sales, which include the Company's eCommerce business, and its strong gross profit margins. The Company has grown from 574 Dick's Sporting Goods stores as of August 2, 2014 to 727 Dick's Sporting Goods stores as of August 3, 2019. The Company has reduced its rate of new store growth and intends to continue this strategy over the next few years in an effort to leverage the significant flexibility within its existing real estate portfolio to capitalize on future real estate opportunities over the near and intermediate term as those leases come up for renewal.

In recent years, the Company has transitioned to an insourced eCommerce platform, allowing for continued innovation of its eCommerce websites and applications with customer experience enhancements, new releases of its mobile and tablet apps, and the development of omni-channel capabilities that integrate the Company's online presence with its brick and mortar stores, including ship-from-store; buy-online, pick-up in-store; return-to-store and multi-faceted marketing campaigns. The Company's eCommerce sales penetration to total net sales has increased from approximately 7% to approximately 12% for the year-to-date periods ended August 2, 2014 and August 3, 2019, respectively. Approximately 80% of the Company's eCommerce sales are generated within brick and mortar store trade areas.

The retail industry as a whole is dynamic, and the sporting goods category has faced significant disruption in recent years, as several sporting goods retailers have gone out of business. Vendors have broadened their distribution into department stores and family footwear channels while continuing to grow their direct to consumer business. Weak customer demand for firearms and other hunting merchandise across the industry has resulted in slower growth. We have responded to these challenges by focusing on driving profitable sales, emphasizing a refined merchandise assortment that delivers newness, innovation and exclusivity. We have made strategic investments in our supply chain, digital capabilities, customer experience, private brands and teammates to support these efforts. We are also focused on increasing productivity and eliminating non-essential expenses to fund our future strategic investments.

Effective May 10, 2019, tariff rates on certain products imported from China increased from 10% to 25%. Also, a 10% tariff rate on substantially all remaining Chinese imports is scheduled to go into effect on September 1, 2019 and December 15, 2019. We have incorporated the anticipated impact of the tariff changes announced as of August 22, 2019 into our financial expectations for fiscal 2019. We are assessing the impact of new and increased tariff rates and other potential limitations on our ability to do business in China that were announced after August 22, 2019.

As we look to the future, we are focused on continuing to invest in our business to meet the changing needs of our athletes and increasing their level of engagement with the Company. We plan to further enhance the store experience by optimizing our merchandise assortment, reallocating floor space to regionally relevant and growing merchandise categories and making our stores more experiential. Our primary areas of investment during fiscal 2019 continue to be 1) enhancing the athlete experience in our stores; 2) improving our eCommerce fulfillment capabilities and 3) implementing technology solutions that improve the athlete experience and our teammates’ productivity. We also plan to continue to focus on increasing productivity across the business to help fund these investments.

On August 22, 2019, the Company sold two of its technology subsidiaries, Blue Sombrero and Affinity Sports, to Stack Sports for $45 million. Stack Sports has no affiliation with Edward W. Stack, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Company expects to record a pre-tax gain from the sale in the third fiscal quarter of 2019. As part of the sale, the Company also entered into a long-term strategic partnership agreement where we will serve as the official retailer of Stack Sports. This transaction will allow the Company to continue to serve young athletes and their families, without owning and operating the underlying registration and league management platform.

The Company's senior management focuses on certain key indicators to monitor the Company's performance, including:

Consolidated same store sales performance – Our management considers same store sales, which consists of both brick and mortar and eCommerce sales, to be an important indicator of our current performance. Same store sales results are important to leverage our costs, which include occupancy costs, store payroll and other store expenses. Same store sales also have a direct impact on our total net sales, net income, cash and working capital. A store is included in the same store sales calculation during the same fiscal period that it commences its 14th full month of operations. Stores that were closed or relocated during the applicable period have been excluded from same store sales results. Each relocated store is returned to the same store sales base during the fiscal period that it commences its 14th full month of operations at the new location. See further discussion of our consolidated same store sales in the "Results of Operations and Other Selected Data" section herein.

Earnings before taxes and the related operating margin – Our management views earnings before taxes and operating margin as key indicators of our performance. The key drivers of earnings before taxes are same store sales, gross profit, and our ability to control selling, general and administrative expenses. 

Cash flows from operating activities – Cash flow generation supports the general liquidity needs of the Company and funds capital expenditures for our omni-channel platform, distribution and administrative facilities, costs associated with continued improvement of information technology tools, potential strategic acquisitions or investments that may arise from time-to-time and stockholder return initiatives, including cash dividends and share repurchases. We typically generate significant cash flows from operating activities and proportionately higher net income levels in our fourth fiscal quarter in connection with the holiday selling season and sales of cold weather sporting goods and apparel. See further discussion of the Company's cash flows in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources and Changes in Financial Condition" section herein.

Quality of merchandise offerings – To measure acceptance of its merchandise offerings, the Company monitors sell-throughs, inventory turns, gross margins and markdown rates at the department and style level. This analysis helps the Company manage inventory levels to reduce working capital requirements and deliver optimal gross margins by improving merchandise flow and establishing appropriate price points to minimize markdowns.

Store productivity – To assess store-level performance, the Company monitors various indicators, including new store productivity, sales per square foot, store operating contribution margin and store cash flow.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
As discussed in Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2019, the Company considers its policies on inventory valuation, vendor allowances, goodwill and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and closed store reserves, self-insurance reserves and stock-based compensation to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements. Other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", on February 3, 2019 as discussed in Note 1 of our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies.

Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, net of sales tax. Revenue from eCommerce sales, including vendor-direct sales arrangements, is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded. Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the "cards") is deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards. The cards have no expiration date.

(2) 
Cost of goods sold includes: the cost of merchandise (inclusive of vendor allowances, inventory shrinkage and inventory write-downs for the lower of cost and net realizable value); freight; distribution; shipping; and store occupancy costs. The Company defines merchandise margin as net sales less the cost of merchandise sold. Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, general maintenance, utilities, depreciation and certain insurance expenses.
 
(3) 
Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, operating costs associated with the Company's internal eCommerce platform, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company's Customer Support Center.

(4) 
Pre-opening expenses, which consist primarily of rent, marketing, payroll and recruiting costs, are expensed as incurred. Rent is recognized within pre-opening expense from the date the Company takes possession of a site through the date of store opening.

13 Weeks Ended August 3, 2019 Compared to the 13 Weeks Ended August 4, 2018
 
Net Sales

Net sales increased 3.8% in the current quarter to $2,259.2 million from $2,177.5 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018, due primarily to a 3.2% increase in consolidated same store sales. The 3.2% increase in consolidated same store sales increased net sales for the quarter ended August 3, 2019 by $68.9 million. The remaining $12.8 million increase in the Company's sales is primarily attributable to new stores. The 3.2% increase in consolidated same store sales included an increase of approximately 21% in eCommerce sales. eCommerce sales penetration increased to approximately 12% of total net sales during the current quarter compared to approximately 11% of total net sales during the quarter ended August 4, 2018.

The increase in consolidated same store sales was broad-based across hardlines, apparel and footwear, partially offset by a continued decline in the hunt category. Although the broader hunt industry also remains challenged, we believe that our firearms policy changes have contributed to a continuing decline in our hunt business. We are continuing to evaluate our strategy for the hunt business, including Field & Stream. As part of the initial steps of this review, we removed hunt category merchandise from approximately 125 Dick's Sporting Goods stores during the current quarter, where the category underperformed and was less relevant in the local market. We reallocated space in these stores to a more compelling localized assortment of categories and products in an effort to drive growth. Consolidated same store sales results for the current quarter reflected an increase in transactions of approximately 1.1% and an increase in sales per transaction of 2.1%.

Income from Operations
 
Income from operations decreased to $155.0 million in the current quarter from $162.5 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018.
 
Gross profit increased 2.7% to $677.1 million in the current quarter from $659.3 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018, but decreased as a percentage of net sales by 31 basis points compared to the same period last year. This decline was driven by a 65 basis point decline in merchandise margins, which were influenced by the clearance of hunt merchandise from the 125 stores that were reset, coupled with the sell-through of inventory that is being replaced by a new private brand. In addition, eCommerce shipping fulfillment costs increased as a result of the growth and increased penetration of eCommerce sales as compared to the Company's total net sales. These costs were partially offset by occupancy leverage of 41 basis points in the current quarter. Occupancy costs increased $0.5 million in the current quarter from the quarter ended August 4, 2018. Our occupancy costs, which after the cost of merchandise represent our largest expense within cost of goods sold, are generally fixed in nature and fluctuate based on the number of stores that we operate.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 5.2% to $521.1 million in the current quarter from $495.3 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018, and increased as a percentage of net sales by 31 basis points. The increase was primarily driven by strategic growth investments and higher store payroll from wage inflation.

Pre-opening expenses decreased to $1.0 million in the current quarter from $1.4 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018. Pre-opening expenses in any period fluctuate depending on the timing and number of store openings and relocations. We opened two new stores in the current quarter compared to five new stores during the quarter ended August 4, 2018.

Other Income

Other income totaled $1.6 million in the current quarter compared to $2.2 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018. The Company recognizes investment income / expense to reflect changes in its deferred compensation plan investment values with a corresponding charge / reduction to selling, general and administrative costs for the same amount. The Company recognized investment income totaling $1.5 million in the current quarter compared to investment income totaling $2.1 million for the quarter ended August 4, 2018, primarily driven by an overall decline in the equity markets, which impacted its deferred compensation plan investment values.

Income Taxes
 
The Company's effective tax rate decreased to 25.5% for the current quarter from 26.1% for the quarter ended August 4, 2018.

26 Weeks Ended August 3, 2019 Compared to the 26 Weeks Ended August 4, 2018

Net Sales

Net sales increased 2.3% in the current period to $4,179.9 million from $4,087.2 million for the period ended August 4, 2018, due primarily to a 1.7% increase in consolidated same store sales. The 1.7% increase in consolidated same store sales increased net sales for the period ended August 3, 2019 by $68.5 million. The remaining $24.2 million increase in the Company's sales is primarily attributable to new stores. The 1.7% increase in consolidated same store sales included an increase of approximately 18% in eCommerce sales. eCommerce sales penetration increased to approximately 12% of total net sales during the current period compared to approximately 11% of total net sales during the period ended August 4, 2018.

The increase in consolidated same store sales was driven by gains in the athletic and outdoor apparel, footwear, and team sports categories, slightly offset by a continued decline in the hunt category. Although the broader hunt industry also remains challenged, we believe that our firearms policy changes have contributed to a continuing decline in our hunt business. We are continuing to evaluate our strategy for the hunt business, including Field & Stream. As part of the initial steps of this review, we removed hunt category merchandise from approximately 125 Dick's Sporting Goods stores during the current quarter, where the category underperformed and was less relevant in the local market. We reallocated space in these stores to a more compelling localized assortment of categories and products in an effort to drive growth. Consolidated same store sales results for the current period reflect an increase in transactions of approximately 0.1% and an increase in sales per transaction of 1.6%.

Income from Operations

Income from operations decreased to $231.1 million in the current period from $249.9 million for the period ended August 4, 2018.

Gross profit increased 1.7% to $1,240.9 million for the current period from $1,219.7 million for the period ended August 4, 2018, and decreased as a percentage of net sales by 15 basis points compared to the same period last year. This decline was driven by a 26 basis point decline in merchandise margins, which were influenced by the clearance of hunt merchandise from the 125 stores that were reset, coupled with the sell-through of inventory that is being replaced by a new private brand. In addition, eCommerce shipping fulfillment costs increased as a result of the growth and increased penetration of eCommerce sales as compared to the Company's total net sales. These costs were partially offset by occupancy leverage of 29 basis points in the current period. Occupancy costs decreased $0.4 million in the current period from the period ended August 4, 2018. Our occupancy costs, which after the cost of merchandise represent our largest expense within cost of goods sold, are generally fixed in nature and fluctuate based on the number of stores that we operate.


22

 
 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 4.4% to $1,008.2 million in the current period from $965.7 million for the period ended August 4, 2018, and increased as a percentage of net sales by 49 basis points. The period ended August 3, 2019 included $7.6 million for a non-cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of a corporate aircraft held for sale to its fair market value and $8.1 million of expenses associated with changes in the Company's deferred compensation plan investment values, for which the corresponding investment income was recognized in other income. These expenses were offset by a $6.4 million settlement of a previously accrued litigation contingency. The increase was primarily driven by strategic growth investments and higher store payroll from wage inflation.
 
Pre-opening expenses decreased to $1.6 million in the current period from $4.1 million for the period ended August 4, 2018. Pre-opening expenses in any period fluctuate depending on the timing and number of new store openings and relocations. We opened three new stores in the current period compared to 13 new stores during the period ended August 4, 2018.

Other Income

Other income totaled $8.3 million in the current period compared to $1.3 million for the period ended August 4, 2018. The Company recognizes investment income / expense to reflect changes in deferred compensation plan investment values with a corresponding charge / reduction to selling, general and administrative costs for the same amount. The Company recognized investment income totaling $8.1 million in the current period compared to investment income of $1.1 million for the period ended August 4, 2018, primarily driven by overall improvement in the equity markets, which impacted the deferred compensation plan investment values.

Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate decreased to 26.3% for the current period from 26.9% for the same period last year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Overview

The Company has a $1.6 billion senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), including up to $150 million in the form of letters of credit. Under the Credit Facility, which is further described within Note 6 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may request an increase of up to $500 million in additional borrowing availability.

The Company's liquidity and capital needs have generally been met by cash from operating activities supplemented by borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility as seasonally necessary. The Company generally utilizes its Credit Facility for working capital needs based primarily on the seasonal nature of its operating cash flows, with the Company's peak borrowing level occurring early in the fourth quarter as the Company increases inventory in advance of the holiday selling season.

The Company intends to allocate capital to invest in its future growth, specifically growing and remodeling its store network and eCommerce business together to deliver an omni-channel shopping experience, as well as other long-term strategic investments while returning capital to stockholders through share repurchases and dividends. 

Capital expenditures – We expect fiscal 2019 capital expenditures to be approximately $230 million on a gross basis and approximately $200 million on a net basis, which includes tenant allowances provided by landlords. Normal capital requirements primarily relate to the development of our omni-channel platform, including investments in new and existing stores and eCommerce technology. We reduced our new stores growth rate in fiscal 2019 to an anticipated eight new Dick's Sporting Goods stores, which represents a significant reduction from fiscal 2018. Approximately two-thirds of our Dick’s Sporting Goods stores will be up for lease renewal at our option over the next five years. We plan to leverage the significant flexibility within our existing real estate portfolio to capitalize on future real estate opportunities over the near and intermediate term as those leases come up for renewal. The Company also plans to continue to invest in improving its eCommerce fulfillment network and corporate information technology capabilities.

Share repurchases – On March 16, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a five-year share repurchase program of up to $1 billion of the Company's common stock. During the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019, the Company repurchased approximately 7.5 million shares of its common stock for $266.6 million. Under the 2016 program, we have repurchased $833.2 million of common stock and have $166.8 million remaining under this authorization. On June 12, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an additional five-year share repurchase program of up to $1 billion of the Company's common stock. The Company intends to repurchase shares from time-to-time to offset dilution and also may pursue additional repurchases of shares under favorable market conditions. Any future share repurchase programs are subject to authorization by our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors.

Dividends – During the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019, the Company paid $51.3 million of dividends to its stockholders. On August 19, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.275 per share of common stock and Class B common stock payable on September 27, 2019 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 13, 2019. The declaration of future dividends and the establishment of the per share amount, record dates and payment dates for any such future dividends are subject to authorization by our Board of Directors, and will be dependent upon multiple factors including future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other considerations.

The Company believes cash flows generated by operations and funds available under its Credit Facility will be sufficient to satisfy capital requirements through 2019, including planned inventory investments in key growth categories, capital expenditures, share repurchases, and quarterly dividend payments to its stockholders. The Company may require additional funding should the Company pursue strategic acquisitions or undertake share repurchases, other investments or store expansion rates in excess of historical levels.

Operating Activities

Operating activities consist primarily of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Adjustments to net income for non-cash items include depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes and stock-based compensation expense, as well as non-cash gains and losses on the disposal of the Company's assets. Changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily reflect changes in inventories, accounts payable and income taxes payable / receivable, as well as other working capital changes.
 

24

 
 

Cash used in operating activities increased $343.1 million for the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 compared to the same period last year due primarily to the following:

Changes in inventory levels and accounts payable at the end of the current fiscal period decreased operating cash flows by $319.8 million compared to the same period last year, primarily due to strategic investments in key growth categories including footwear, apparel, baseball and golf.

Changes in accounts receivable at the end of the current fiscal period decreased operating cash flows by $19.5 million compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the timing of collections for vendor receivables year-over-year.

Investing Activities
 
Cash used in investing activities increased $15.5 million for the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 compared to the same period last year, due to an increase in gross capital expenditures. The increase in gross capital expenditures was primarily driven by additional store enhancements and technology investments in the current year.

Financing Activities

Financing activities consist primarily of the Company's capital return initiatives, including its share repurchase program and cash dividend payments, cash flows generated from stock option exercises and cash activity associated with our Credit Facility. Cash provided by financing activities for the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 totaled $142.3 million compared to cash used in financing activities of $196.3 million for the comparable period of the prior year. The Company had higher net Credit Facility borrowings during the 26 weeks ended August 3, 2019 compared to the same period last year, to fund strategic inventory investments in key categories.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company's off-balance sheet arrangements as of August 3, 2019 primarily relate to purchase obligations for marketing commitments, including naming rights, licenses for trademarks, minimum requirements with its third-party eCommerce fulfillment provider and technology-related and other ordinary course commitments. The Company has excluded these items from the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company does not believe that any of these arrangements have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or resources.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments
 
The Company is party to many contractual obligations that involve commitments to make payments to third parties in the ordinary course of business. For a description of the Company's contractual obligations and other commercial commitments as of February 2, 2019, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2019. During the current quarter, there were no material changes with respect to these contractual obligations and other commercial commitments outside the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in the Company's market risk exposures from those reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2019.
 
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.

During the quarter, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, August 3, 2019.

25

 
 

 
There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any control system, including the potential for human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Additionally, judgments in decision making can be faulty and breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. An effective control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the system are adequately met. Accordingly, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our control system can prevent or detect all errors or fraud. Finally, projections of any evaluation or assessment of effectiveness of a control system to future periods are subject to the risks that, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in an entity's operating environment or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies and procedures. 

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
The Company is involved in various proceedings that are incidental to the normal course of its business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company does not expect that any of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Except as identified below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors affecting the Company from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2019. The discussion of risk factors sets forth the material risks that could affect the Company's financial condition and operations.

The escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China, including the imposition of new and increased tariffs on goods imported from China, could have a negative impact on our sales and profitability.
The escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China has resulted in both countries imposing tariffs on billions of dollars of each other’s goods. If these events continue or further action is taken to limit trade between the two countries, we may need to seek alternative suppliers or vendors, raise prices, or make changes to our operations any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, including sales and profitability.
If our product costs are adversely affected by foreign trade issues, currency exchange rate fluctuations, increasing prices for raw materials, political instability or other reasons, our sales and profitability may suffer.
A significant portion of the products that we purchase, including those purchased from domestic suppliers, as well as most of our private brand merchandise, is manufactured abroad. Foreign imports subject us to risk relating to changes in import duties, quotas, the introduction of U.S. taxes on imported goods or the extension of U.S. income taxes on our foreign suppliers' sales of imported goods through the adoption of destination-based income tax jurisdiction, loss of "most favored nation" status with the U.S., shipment delays and shipping port constraints, labor strikes, work stoppages or other disruptions, freight cost increases and economic uncertainties. Furthermore, we could face significantly higher U.S. income and similar taxes with respect to sales of products purchased from foreign suppliers if the U.S. were to adopt a system of taxation, such as a border adjustment tax, under which the cost of imported products was not deductible in determining such products' tax base. If such a tax system were adopted, we could also face higher prices for products manufactured or produced abroad that we purchase from our domestic suppliers if they were subject to such a tax. In addition, the U.S. government periodically considers other restrictions on the importation of products obtained by our vendors and us.
If any of these or other factors were to cause a disruption of trade from the countries in which our vendors' supplies or our private brand products' manufacturers are located, our inventory levels may be reduced or the cost of our products may increase. Additionally, we could be impacted by negative publicity or, in some cases, face potential liability to the extent that any foreign manufacturers from whom we directly or indirectly purchase products utilize labor, environmental, workplace safety and other practices that vary from those commonly accepted in the U.S. Also, the prices charged by foreign manufacturers may be affected by the fluctuation of their local currency against the U.S. dollar and the price of raw materials, which could cause the cost of our products to increase and negatively impact our sales or profitability.
