General
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 a blend of dedicated associates, in-store services and unique specialty shop-in-shops. The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream and other specialty concept stores, and Dick's Team Sports HQ, an all-in-one youth sports digital platform offering free league management services, mobile apps for scheduling, communications and live scorekeeping, custom uniforms and FanWear and access to donations and sponsorships. 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified, any reference to "year" is to the Company's fiscal year.
The Company was founded in 1948 when Richard "Dick" Stack, the father of Edward W. Stack, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, opened his original bait and tackle store in Binghamton, New York. Edward W. Stack joined his father's business full-time in 1977 and in 1984 became President and Chief Executive Officer of the then two-store chain. Our vision is to build leading brands that serve and inspire athletes and outdoor enthusiasts around the world to achieve their personal best; create value for our stockholders through the relentless improvement of everything we do; and make a lasting impact in our communities through sport.
We were incorporated in 1948 in New York under the name Dick's Clothing and Sporting Goods, Inc. In November 1997, we reincorporated as a Delaware corporation and in April 1999 we changed our name to Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. Our executive office is located at 345 Court Street, Coraopolis, Pennsylvania 15108 and our phone number is (724) 273-3400. Our website is located at www.DICKS.com. The information on our website does not constitute a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We include on our website, free of charge, copies of our Annual and Quarterly Reports filed on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Business Strategy
The key elements of our business strategy are:
Authentic Sporting Goods Retailer.
Our history and core foundation is as a retailer of high-quality authentic athletic equipment, apparel and footwear, intended to enhance our customers' performance and enjoyment of athletic pursuits, rather than focusing our merchandise selection on the latest fashion trend or style. We believe our customers seek genuine, deep product offerings, and that ultimately this merchandising approach positions us with advantages in the market, which we believe will continue to benefit from new product offerings with enhanced technological features.
Our objective is not only to carry leading brands, but to carry a full range of products within each category, including premium items for the sports enthusiast. We believe that the breadth of our product selections in each category of sporting goods offers our customers a wide range of good, better and best price points and enables us to address the needs of sporting goods consumers, from the beginner to the sports enthusiast, which distinguishes us from other large format sporting goods stores. We also believe that the range of merchandise and extensive in-store support services that we offer allows us to differentiate and compete effectively against all of our competitors, from traditional independent sporting goods stores and specialty shops to other large format sporting goods stores and mass merchant discount retailers to internet-based retailers.
Capturing Displaced Market Share.
The sporting goods industry experienced consolidation during 2016 as competitor bankruptcies left behind significant market share. The Company strategically acquired the best store locations, customer information and intellectual property for some of these competitors and believes it realized market share gains during 2016 as it leveraged these assets to capture these displaced customers. The Company remains focused on continuing to capture displaced market share in the future. Our store growth plans will focus on new and under-penetrated markets which were historically served by our former competitors. We will also continue to leverage the transaction details and target millions of new customers within the acquired customer information.
Omni-channel Development.
We believe when our customers connect with the Dick's Sporting Goods brand they expect a seamless shopping experience, regardless of the manner in which they choose to shop with us. We continue to see growth in the number of customers who shop with us both online and in our stores and believe these omni-channel customers represent the future of retail.
Our customers may research products online, then visit a store to experience the merchandise and consult with one of our in-store experts, such as a bicycle mechanic or running specialist. Other customers may be inspired by one of our push notifications on their mobile device, visit our store to test the merchandise by utilizing such features as the golf hitting bay, archery lane or trying a pair of running shoes on the treadmill and complete the purchase in the store or later on their tablet device.
We believe that leveraging all of our sales channels to deliver a consistent, seamless and high-quality customer experience across our store, on the web and via mobile technology, will differentiate us from our online-only competitors.
On January 29, 2017, we transitioned our eCommerce platform from a third-party provider to a proprietary internal platform that now allows us to fully control our customer experience and maximize profitability, while continuing store growth. The Company's focus will be to refine platform functionality, improve customer-facing features, and leverage customer and transaction data to optimize its customer relationship management efforts and to deliver more targeted digital marketing. Like our customers, we see retail as an omni-experience, where the distinctions between stores and online are increasingly irrelevant.
We believe our store base is a competitive advantage to our online-only competitors, as our physical presence allows us to better serve our customers, whether through the convenience of accepting in-store returns or exchanges, or expediting fulfillment of eCommerce orders. We believe that offering support services for the products we sell enhances the credibility of our associates and specialty store concepts with our customers and further differentiates our stores from our competitors.
Within specialty retail, we opened nine Field & Stream stores during fiscal 2016, eight of which were in the combo store format. In some markets, we operate Dick's Sporting Goods stores adjacent to our specialty concept stores on the same property with a pass-through for customers. We refer to this format as a "combo store". In fiscal 2017, we plan to open eight additional Field & Stream stores, all in the combo store format. These highly specialized concept stores enable us to connect with the outdoor enthusiast in their own element, giving us valuable insight into key merchandise categories that we can apply across our entire network.

Drive Digital Growth.
The Company plans to invest in digital in many forms, including our eCommerce platform, online assortments, customer relationship management and digital marketing, and Dick's Team Sports HQ, just as we make investments in our stores to keep them fresh and in the best locations.
Our marketing program is designed to build loyalty for the Dick's Sporting Goods brand while promoting our broad assortment of brand name sporting goods equipment, apparel and footwear in a specialty store environment. While we continue to market our merchandise assortment through traditional channels, such as newspaper and direct mail pieces, we have developed brand-building marketing campaigns focused on building passion and loyalty to the Dick's Sporting Goods brand and shifted our advertising mix to include more digital marketing.
The Company is also actively involved in communities, sponsoring thousands of teams in various sports at the local level. The Dick's Team Sports HQ business, which is comprised of our Blue Sombrero, Affinity Sports and GameChanger acquisitions, is focused on creating a holistic digital eco-system to support and equip youth sports and establish relationships with millions of players. We plan to use Dick's Team Sports HQ to stay top-of-mind for athletes and their families, and to create a powerful dataset that we will use to develop offers that are tailored and timed to meet the needs of these athletes.
We also plan to continue to optimize our media mix by shifting to more efficient and effective marketing channels and by leveraging our extensive and expanding customer relationship marketing database from our "ScoreCard" loyalty program.
Brand Partnerships.
We carry a wide variety of well-known brands, including adidas, Asics, Callaway Golf, Columbia, Nike, Remington, TaylorMade-adidas Golf, The North Face, Under Armour and Yeti. In addition to the cost efficiencies of shared investments with our brand partners, we seek to leverage our partnerships to offer authenticity and credibility to our customers, while differentiating ourselves from our competitors. We partner with our brands on important marketing initiatives and product launches, in addition to leveraging athletes that these brands bring to us for our marketing campaigns. Our brand partnerships also provide us with access to exclusive products and allow us to differentiate our customers' shopping experience through initiatives such as our brand shops, which provide our customers with a wider and deeper selection of products from our key brands.
Private Brands.
To provide differentiation in assortment when compared to our competitors, we offer a wide variety of private brand products that are not available from other retailers. Our exclusive private brand offerings include brands that we own such as CALIA, DBX, Field & Stream, Fitness Gear, Lady Hagen, MAXFLI, Nishiki, Primed, Quest, Top-Flite and Walter Hagen, as well as brands that we exclusively license from third parties including adidas baseball, Reebok (performance apparel), Slazenger (golf and racquets) and Umbro (performance soccer equipment, footwear and apparel). Our private brands offer exceptional value and quality to our customers, while also providing the Company with higher gross margins than we obtain on sales of comparable third-party branded products. We consider our overall private brand strategy to be a key area of opportunity to increase productivity in our stores and on-line, and have invested in a development and procurement staff to support our private brand business. In fiscal 2016, we expanded our private brand business and continued to focus on our CALIA line of women's athletic apparel. Looking forward, we intend to expand product offerings within the CALIA line as well as introduce multiple new private brands during fiscal 2017. The Company anticipates the private brand business exceeding $1 billion in sales during fiscal 2017. Private brand sales represented approximately 10% of the Company's consolidated net sales during fiscal 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Selling Channels
We offer products to our customers through our retail stores and online. Although we sell through both of these channels, we believe that sales in one channel are not independent of the other. Regardless of the sales channel, we seek to provide our customers with a seamless omni-channel shopping experience.
Retail Stores:
Store Format.
Each of our Dick's Sporting Goods stores unites several sports specialty stores under one roof and typically contains the following specialty shops: Footwear, Team Sports, Outdoor Lodge, Golf, Fitness and Athletic Apparel. We believe our "store-within-a-store" concept creates a unique shopping environment by combining the convenience, broad assortment and competitive prices of large format stores with the brand names, deep product selection and customer service of a specialty store. Our Golf Galaxy and Field & Stream stores are designed to create an exciting and interactive shopping environment for the sporting enthusiast that highlights our extensive product assortments and value-added services.
The Company seeks to expand its presence through the opening of new stores and the Company believes that growing its store network and eCommerce business simultaneously, will enable it to profitably grow the business by delivering an omni-channel shopping experience for its customers. The rate of future store growth may be reduced compared to historical levels as the Company monitors the competitive landscape and focuses its store growth in under-served and under-penetrated markets.
eCommerce:
Through our websites, we seek to provide our customers with in-depth product knowledge and the ability to shop with us at any time. We continue to develop our online content and capabilities to enhance the online experience and fully integrate our online business with our stores to provide our customers with an omni-channel shopping experience. Currently, we have return-to-store capabilities for online orders and the ability to place online orders in our stores if we are out of stock in the retail store. We also have the ability through our websites to ship orders placed online from our retail locations, which reduces delivery times for online orders and improves inventory productivity. We also have capability for our customers to buy merchandise online and pick it up in store. In fiscal
2016
, our eCommerce business accounted for approximately
12%
of our total net sales.
Purchasing, Distribution and Customer Fulfillment
We purchase merchandise from approximately
1,400
vendors. During fiscal
2016
,
Nike
and
Under Armour
, our largest vendors, represented approximately
20%
and
12%
, respectively, of our merchandise purchases. No other vendor represented 10% or more of our fiscal
2016
merchandise purchases. We do not have long-term purchase contracts with any of our vendors and all of our purchases from vendors are made on a short-term purchase order basis.
We currently operate four regional distribution centers for supplying stores with merchandise and are constructing a new 650,000 square foot distribution center in Conklin, NY that we expect to be operational by the end of fiscal 2017. Vendors directly ship floor ready merchandise to our distribution centers, where it is processed and allocated directly to our stores or to temporary storage at our distribution centers. Our distribution centers are responsible for consolidating damaged or defective merchandise from our stores that is being returned to vendors. We have contracted with common carriers to deliver merchandise from all of our distribution centers to our stores. During fiscal
2016
, our stores received approximately 95% of merchandise through our distribution network with the remaining merchandise shipped directly to the stores from our vendors. We believe this flow of merchandise facilitates prompt and efficient distribution to our stores in order to enhance in-stocks, minimize freight costs and improve our inventory turns.
The Company leverages various fulfillment channels to ensure merchandise delivery speed to its customers and to minimize shipping costs. The Company leverages its store network, a third-party operated fulfillment center as well as its vendors to ship merchandise to its customers.

Competition
The market for sporting goods retailers is highly fragmented and intensely competitive. We compete with many retailing formats, including large format sporting goods stores, traditional sporting goods stores, specialty and vendor stores, mass merchants and department stores, internet and catalog-based retailers, and vendors selling directly to consumers. We seek to attract customers by offering a wide range of products and broad selection and distinctive marketing in stores that provide a unique shopping environment and superior service through an omni-channel experience.
Employees
As of
January 28, 2017
, we employed approximately
14,600
full-time and
25,900
part-time associates. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, total employment figures fluctuate throughout the year and typically peak during the fourth quarter. None of our associates are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We believe that our relations with our associates are good.
Seasonality
Seasonality of the Company's business is discussed in further detail within Item 1A. "Risk Factors".
Proprietary Rights
The Company has a number of registered service marks and trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, including various versions of the following: "Acuity", "CALIA", "DBX", "Dick's", "Dick's Sporting Goods", "Ethos", "Field & Stream", "Fitness Gear", "Golf Galaxy", "Golfsmith", "Lady Hagen", "MAXFLI", "Nishiki", "Primed", "Quest", "Second Skin", "ScoreCard", "ScoreCard Rewards", "Top-Flite", "The Sports Authority" and "Walter Hagen". The Company also has a number of registered domain names, including "dickssportinggoods.com", "DICKS.com", "golfgalaxy.com", "fieldandstreamshop.com" and "caliastudio.com". Our service marks, trademarks and other intellectual property are subject to risks and uncertainties that are discussed within Item 1A. "Risk Factors". We have entered into licensing agreements for names that we do not own, which provide for exclusive rights to use names such as "adidas" (baseball and football), "Cobra" (youth golf), "Slazenger" (golf and racquets), "Louisville Slugger" (hosiery only), "Reebok" (performance apparel) and "Umbro" (performance soccer equipment, footwear and apparel) for specified product categories and, in some cases, specified sales channels. These licenses contemplate long-term business relationships, with substantial initial terms and the opportunity for multi-year extensions. These licenses contain customary termination provisions at the option of the licensor including, in some cases, termination upon our failure to purchase or sell a minimum volume of products and may include early termination fees. Our licenses are also subject to risks and uncertainties common to licensing arrangements that are described within Item 1A. "Risk Factors".
Governmental Regulations
We must comply with various federal, state and local regulations, including regulations relating to consumer products and consumer protection, advertising and marketing, labor and employment, data protection and privacy, intellectual property, the environment and tax. In addition, in connection with the sale of firearms in our stores, we must comply with a number of federal and state laws and regulations related to the sale of firearms and ammunition, including the federal Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. Ensuring our compliance with these various laws and regulations, and keeping abreast of changes to the legal and regulatory landscape, requires us to expend considerable resources.

Risks and Uncertainties
Our business is dependent on consumer discretionary spending and reductions in consumer spending might adversely affect the
Company's business, operations, liquidity, financial results and stock price.
Our business depends on consumer discretionary spending, and as a result, our results are highly dependent on U.S. consumer confidence and the health of the U.S. economy. Consumer spending may be affected by many factors outside of the Company's control, including general economic conditions, consumer disposable income levels, consumer confidence levels, the availability, cost and level of consumer debt, the costs of basic necessities and other goods and the effects of the weather or natural disasters. Decreases in consumer discretionary spending can result in the need for more promotional activities and a decrease in same store sales, customer traffic or average value per transaction, which could negatively affect the Company's business, financial performance and/or stock price, particularly if consumer spending is depressed for a prolonged period of time.
Intense competition in the sporting goods industry and in retail could limit our growth and reduce our profitability.
The market for sporting goods retailers is highly fragmented and intensely competitive. Our current and prospective competitors include many large companies, some of which have greater market presence, name recognition and financial, marketing and other resources than we do. Additionally, the ability of consumers to compare prices on a real-time basis through the use of smartphones and digital technology puts additional pressure on us to maintain competitive prices vis-à-vis our competitors. We compete with retailers from multiple categories and in multiple channels, including large formats; traditional and specialty formats; mass merchants; department stores and catalog; internet-based and direct-sell retailers; and vendors that sell directly to customers. Many factors affect the extent to which competition could affect our results, including pricing, quality, assortment, advertising, service, locations and reputation, and prolonged competitive pressures could have a material effect on our results of operations.

Omni-channel growth in our business is complex and we have recently implemented an internal eCommerce platform.
Our business has become increasingly omni-channel as we strive to deliver a seamless shopping experience to our customers through both online and in-store shopping experiences. On January 29, 2017, we launched an internal eCommerce platform that allows us to control our customer experience without relying on a third-party provider. Maintaining and developing our internal eCommerce platform involves substantial investment of capital and resources, integrating a number of information and management systems from different vendors, increasing supply chain and distribution capabilities, attracting, developing and retaining qualified personnel with relevant subject matter expertise, and effectively managing the customer experience. This involves substantial risk, including risk of cost overruns, technology interruptions, supply and distribution delays, and other issues that can affect the successful operation of our internal eCommerce platform. If we are not able to successfully operate our internal eCommerce platform, our reputation, operations, financial results, and future growth could be materially adversely affected.
If we are unable to predict or effectively react to changes in consumer demand or shopping patterns, we may lose customers and our sales may decline.
Our success depends in part on our ability to anticipate and respond in a timely manner to changing consumer demand, preferences and shopping patterns regarding sporting goods. We must develop and execute merchandising initiatives with marketing programs that appeal to a broad range of consumers and markets throughout the country. Consumer preferences cannot be predicted with certainty and are subject to continual change and evolution. Additionally, our customers may also have expectations about how they shop in stores or through eCommerce or more generally engage with businesses across different channels or media (through internet-based and other digital or mobile channels or particular forms of social media), which may vary across demographics and may evolve rapidly. We often make commitments to purchase products from our vendors several months in advance of the proposed delivery.
Furthermore, the Company also is implementing a new merchandising and vendor strategy to better serve its customers. The Company will leverage its relationships with strategic vendors to drive growth through exclusive and differentiated products. These initiatives might require considerable attention from our management teams and other company specialists in order to implement and maintain, and we may not recognize the anticipated benefits from these initiatives within the expected time-frame or at all.
Our sales may decline significantly if we misjudge the market for our new merchandise, which may result in significant inventory markdowns, missed opportunities for other products, or inventory write-downs, and could have a negative impact on our reputation and profitability.
Lack of available retail store sites on terms acceptable to us, rising real estate prices and other costs and risks relating to a brick and mortar retail store model could affect our results.
Opening stores in new and existing markets is a critical part of our business strategy. Our plans to increase our number of retail stores will depend in part on the availability of existing retail stores or store sites. Furthermore, even if suitable properties are identified, if we fail to negotiate appropriate terms for new leases we enter into, we may incur lease costs that are excessive and cause operating margins to be below acceptable levels. We may also make term commitments that are too long or too short, without the option to exit early or extend. Factors such as the condition of local property markets, availability of lease financing, taxes, zoning and environmental issues, and competitive actions may impact the availability of, and our ability to successfully negotiate leases, for suitable property. Furthermore, the success of new stores depends on a number of factors, including the success of the shopping center where our store is located, consumer demographics and consumer shopping patterns. These factors cannot be predicted with complete accuracy. If we fail to profitably operate these new stores once they open, our financial performance could be adversely affected.
10
Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential customer information could harm the Company's business and standing with our customers.
The protection of our customer, associate and Company data is critical to us. The Company receives confidential customer data, including payment card and personally identifiable information, in the normal course of customer transactions. While we have taken significant steps to protect customer and confidential information, the intentional or negligent actions of employees, business associates or third parties may undermine our security measures. As a result, unauthorized parties may obtain access to our data systems and misappropriate confidential data. There can be no assurance that advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments will prevent the compromise of our customer transaction processing capabilities and personal data. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems, change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. While we have no knowledge of material data security breach to date, any compromise of our data security could result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws or standards, significant legal and financial exposure beyond the scope or limits of insurance coverage, interruption of our operations, increased operating costs associated with remediation, equipment acquisitions or disposal and added personnel, and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business or investor confidence. Any security breach involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential information could attract a substantial amount of media attention, damage our reputation, expose us to risk of litigation and material liability, disrupt our operations and harm our business.
Our private brand offerings and new retail concepts expose us to increased costs and certain additional risks.
We offer our customers private brand products that are not available from other retailers. We expect to continue to grow our exclusive private brand offerings through a combination of brands that we own and brands that we exclusively license from third parties. We also evaluate and operate new retail concepts, including, for example, our Field & Stream and Golf Galaxy concepts. We invest in our development and procurement resources and marketing efforts relating to these private brand offerings and new retail concepts. There is no assurance that our private brand products or our new retail concepts will be successful, and we could curtail or abandon any of our private brands or retail concepts at any time. Factors that could cause us to curtail or abandon one of our private brands or retail concepts include unexpected or increased costs or delays in development of the brand, demands on management resources, legal or regulatory constraints, change in consumer demands, preferences and shopping patterns regarding sporting goods, or a determination that the demand does not support the brand. Additional risks relating to private brand offerings include product liability and product recalls; our ability to successfully protect our proprietary rights (e.g., defending against counterfeit or otherwise unauthorized goods); our ability to successfully navigate and avoid claims related to the proprietary rights of third parties; and our ability to successfully administer and comply with obligations under license agreements that we have with the licensors of brands.
Our ability to operate and expand our business and to respond to changing business and economic conditions will be dependent upon the availability of adequate capital. The terms of our senior secured revolving credit facility impose certain restrictions that may impair our ability to access sufficient capital.
The operation and growth of our business, including opening new stores and expanding our eCommerce business, and our ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions depend on the availability of adequate capital, which in turn depends on cash flow generated by our business and, if necessary, the availability of equity or debt capital. Our current senior secured revolving credit facility contains provisions that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness or make substantial asset sales, which might otherwise be used to finance our operations. In the event of our insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or reorganization, the lenders under our senior secured revolving credit facility would be entitled to payment in full from our assets before distributions, if any, were made to our stockholders.
If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future, and if availability under our current senior secured revolving credit facility is not sufficient, we may have to obtain additional financing. We cannot provide assurance that we could obtain refinancing or additional financing on favorable terms or at all. Our liquidity or access to capital could also be adversely affected by unforeseen changes in the financial markets and global economy.
11
We are subject to costs and risks associated with a complex regulatory, compliance and legal environment, including increased or changing laws and regulations affecting our business, particularly those relating to the sale of consumer products and firearms and ammunition, and those relating to data protection and privacy.
We operate in a complex regulatory and legal environment that exposes us to compliance and litigation risks that could materially affect our operations and financial results. These laws may change, sometimes significantly, as a result of political, economic or social events. Some of the federal, state or local laws and regulations that affect us include those relating to consumer products, product liability or consumer protection; eCommerce, data protection and privacy; advertisement and marketing; labor and employment; taxes, including tax rates and new taxes and surcharges; firearms, ammunition, knives, food items or other regulated products; accounting, corporate governance and securities; custom or import; and intellectual property.
In addition to potential damage to our reputation and brand, failure to comply with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations such as those outlined above may result in our being subject to claims, lawsuits, fines and adverse publicity that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We depend on our suppliers, distributors and manufacturers to provide us with sufficient quantities of quality products in a timely fashion.
We purchase merchandise from approximately 1,400 vendors. In fiscal 2016, purchases from Nike and Under Armour represented approximately 20% and 12%, respectively, of our merchandise purchases. Although in fiscal 2016 purchases from no other vendor represented 10% or more of our total purchases, our dependence on our principal suppliers involves risk. We generally do not have long-term written contracts with our major suppliers that would require them to continue supplying us with merchandise. If any of our key vendors fails to supply us with sufficient products that comply with our safety and quality standards, whether as a result of supply chain disruptions or other causes, or continue to develop new products that create consumer demand, we may not be able to meet the demands of our customers and our revenue could materially decline. Moreover, many of our suppliers provide us with incentives, such as return privileges, volume purchasing allowances and cooperative advertising. A decline or discontinuation of these incentives could reduce or eliminate our profit margins.
We may be subject to various types of litigation and other claims, and our insurance may not be sufficient to cover damages related to those claims.
From time to time the Company or its subsidiaries may be involved in lawsuits or other claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including those related to federal or state wage and hour laws, product liability, consumer protection, advertising, employment, intellectual property, tort, privacy or data protection and other matters.
We sell hunting rifles, semi-automatic hunting rifles and ammunition, and in some of our stores, including Field & Stream stores, handguns. These are products that are associated with an increased risk of injury and related lawsuits with respect to our compliance with Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives ("ATF") or state laws or regulations. Any improper or illegal use by our customers of ammunition or firearms sold by us could have a negative impact on our reputation and business. We may incur losses due to lawsuits, including potential class actions, relating to our performance of background checks on firearms purchases and compliance with other sales laws as mandated by state and federal law. We may also incur losses from lawsuits relating to the improper use of firearms or ammunition sold by us, including lawsuits by municipalities or other organizations attempting to recover costs from manufacturers and retailers of firearms and ammunition.
We may incur losses relating to claims filed against us, including costs associated with defending against such claims, and there is risk that any such claims or liabilities will exceed our insurance coverage, or affect our ability to retain adequate liability insurance in the future. Even if a claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any such assertions could adversely affect our reputation with our customers. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and other claims, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such matters.
12
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 the 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. In addition, to the extent that any foreign manufacturers from whom we directly or indirectly purchase products utilize labor, environmental, worker safety and other practices that vary from those commonly accepted in the U.S., we could be hurt by any resulting negative publicity or, in some cases, face potential liability. 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.
Our inability or failure to protect our intellectual property rights, or any claimed infringement by us of third party intellectual rights, could have a negative impact on our operating results.
Our trademarks, service marks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, domain names and other intellectual property, including exclusive licensing rights, are valuable assets that are critical to our success. Effective trademark and other intellectual property protection may not be available in every country in which our products are manufactured or may be made available. The unauthorized reproduction or other misappropriation of our intellectual property could diminish the value of our brands or goodwill and cause a decline in our revenue. In addition, any infringement or other intellectual property claim made against us could be time-consuming to address, result in costly litigation, cause product delays, require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements or result in our loss of ownership or use of the intellectual property.
Problems with our information system software could disrupt our operations and negatively impact our financial results and materially adversely affect our business operations.
We utilize a number of third party information systems for core system needs of our business. These systems, if not functioning properly, could disrupt our operations, including our ability to track, record and analyze the merchandise that we sell, process shipments of goods, process financial information or credit card transactions, deliver products or engage in similar normal business activities. Any material disruption, malfunction or other similar problems in or with our core information systems could negatively impact our financial results and materially adversely affect our business operations.
We may be unable to attract, train, engage and retain key personnel and associates. Furthermore, the loss of Edward W. Stack as our key executive could have a material adverse effect on our business.
If we do not continue to effectively implement our strategic and business planning processes to attract, retain, train and develop key personnel and qualified employees in all areas of the organization, our business may suffer. In addition, stores depend significantly on our ability to hire and retain quality associates, including store managers and sales associates. The market for non-entry level personnel, particularly for associates with retail expertise, is highly competitive. We also are dependent on the associates who staff our distribution centers, many of whom are skilled.
Furthermore, our success depends on continued service from Edward W. Stack, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who has been operating the Company since 1984. Mr. Stack possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing the Company and the industry. If we were to lose Mr. Stack, our business could be materially adversely affected.
13
Wage increases could adversely affect our financial results.
Recently, various legislative movements have sought to increase the federal minimum wage in the United States, as well as the minimum wage in a number of individual states. As federal or state minimum wage rates increase, we may need to increase not only the wage rates of our minimum wage employees, but also the wages paid to our other hourly employees as well. Further, should we fail to increase our wages competitively in response to increasing wage rates, the quality of our workforce could decline, causing our customer service to suffer. Additionally, while the U.S. Department of Labor's Final Overtime Rule ("Final Rule") has been enjoined, the Final Rule, if we are required to comply, may impact the compensation paid to employees currently classified as "exempt," resulting in a substantial increase in store payroll expense. Any increase in the cost of our labor could have an adverse effect on our operating costs, financial condition and results of operations.
We rely on our distribution centers and store support center, and a natural disaster or other serious disruption at one or more of these facilities could cause us to lose merchandise, be unable to effectively deliver merchandise to our stores, and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We currently operate a 914,000 square foot distribution center near Atlanta, Georgia, a 725,000 square foot distribution center in Plainfield, Indiana, a 601,000 square foot distribution center in Smithton, Pennsylvania, a 624,000 square foot distribution center in Goodyear, Arizona, and a 670,000 square foot store support center in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania that serves as our corporate headquarters, and we plan to construct a 650,000 square foot distribution center in Conklin, New York by the end of fiscal 2017. Any natural disaster or other serious disruption to one of these facilities due to fire, tornado or any other cause could damage a material portion of our inventory, impair our ability to adequately stock our stores and process returns of products to vendors, and negatively affect our operations, sales, and profitability.
Poor performance of professional sports teams within our core regions of operation, as well as professional team lockouts
or strikes, retirement of sports superstars or scandals involving sports superstars could adversely affect our financial results.
We sell a significant amount of professional sports team merchandise, the sale of which may be subject to fluctuations based on the success or failure of such teams. The poor performance by the professional sports teams within our core regions of operations, as well as professional team lockouts and strikes, could cause our financial results to fluctuate accordingly year over year. In addition, to the extent we use sports superstars to market our products and advertise our stores, or we sell merchandise branded by one or more sports superstars, the retirement of such individuals or scandals in which they may be implicated could negatively impact our financial results.
The relative seasonality of our operations, along with the current geographic concentrations of our Dick's stores, exposes us to certain risks.
Our business is largely seasonal based on sports seasons and the holiday selling season. Furthermore, a majority of our Dick's Sporting Goods stores are located in the eastern half of the United States, which exposes us to various regional risks, including those relating to weather conditions. Many of our stores are located in geographic areas that experience seasonably cold weather, and we sell a significant amount of cold weather sporting goods and apparel. Our highest sales and operating income results historically occur during our fourth fiscal quarter, which is due, in part, to the holiday selling season and, in part, to our strong sales of cold weather sporting goods and apparel. Poor performance during our fourth quarter, whether because of a slow holiday selling season, unseasonable weather conditions, economic conditions or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results for the entire fiscal year. Additionally, abnormally wet or cold weather in the spring or summer months could reduce our sales of golf, team sports or other merchandise and cause a decrease in our profitability.
14
We may pursue strategic alliances, acquisitions or investments and the failure of an alliance, acquisition or investment to produce the anticipated results or the inability to fully integrate the acquired companies could have an adverse impact on our business.
We may from time to time acquire or invest in complementary companies or businesses. The success of such acquisitions or investments is based on our ability to make accurate assumptions regarding the valuation, operations, growth potential, integration and other factors relating to the respective business. There can be no assurance that our acquisitions or investments will produce the results that we expect at the time we enter into or we complete the transaction. Furthermore, acquisitions may result in dilutive issuances of our equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortization expenses or write-offs of goodwill or other intangibles, any of which could harm our financial condition. We also may not be able to successfully integrate operations that we acquire, including their personnel, financial systems, supply chain and other operations, which could adversely affect our business. Acquisitions may also result in the diversion of our capital and our management's attention from other business issues and opportunities.
We are controlled by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and his relatives, whose interests may differ from other stockholders.
As of January 28, 2017, Mr. Edward W. Stack, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and his relatives controlled a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock and Class B common stock and would control the outcome of a vote on any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval. The interests of Mr. Stack and his relatives may differ from the interests of our other stockholders and they may take actions with which our other stockholders disagree.
Our anti-takeover provisions could prevent or delay a change in control of our Company, even if such change in control
would be beneficial to our stockholders.
Provisions of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws as well as provisions of Delaware law could discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control of our Company, even if such change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions include: authorizing the issuance of Class B common stock; classifying the Board of Directors such that only one-third of directors are elected each year; authorizing the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock that could be issued by our Board of Directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt; prohibiting the use of cumulative voting for the election of directors; if our Class B common stock is no longer outstanding, prohibiting stockholder action by partial written consent and requiring all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders or by unanimous written consent; and establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the Board of Directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings.
In addition, the Delaware General Corporation Law, to which we are subject, prohibits us, except under specified circumstances, from engaging in any mergers, significant sales of stock or assets or business combinations with any stockholder or group of stockholders who owns 15% or more of our common stock.
We cannot provide any guaranty of future dividend payments or that we will continue to repurchase our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase program.
Although our Board of Directors has indicated an intention to pay future quarterly cash dividends on our common stock, any determination to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the future will be based primarily upon our financial condition, results of operations, business requirements, and the continuing determination from our Board of Directors that the declaration of dividends is in the best interests of our stockholders and is in compliance with all laws and agreements applicable to the dividend. Furthermore, although we have authorized a five-year $1 billion share repurchase program, we are not obligated to make any purchases under the program and we may discontinue it at any time.
None.
We lease all of our stores. Initial lease terms are generally for 10 to 15 years, and most leases contain multiple five-year renewal options and rent escalation provisions. We believe that our leases, when entered into, are at market rate rents. We generally select a new store site nine to 18 months before its opening. Our stores are primarily located in shopping centers in regional shopping areas, as well as in freestanding locations and malls.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Part II, Item 6, "Selected Financial Data" and our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See "Forward-Looking Statements" and Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors".
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 a blend of dedicated associates, in-store services and unique specialty shop-in-shops. The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream and other specialty concept stores, and Dick's Team Sports HQ, an all-in-one youth sports digital platform offering free league management services, mobile apps for scheduling, communications and live scorekeeping, custom uniforms and FanWear and access to donations and sponsorships. 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires or otherwise specifies, any reference to "year" is to the Company's fiscal year.
The primary factors that have historically influenced the Company's profitability and success have been the growth in its number of stores and selling square footage, the integration of eCommerce with its brick and mortar stores, positive consolidated same store sales, which include the Company's eCommerce business, and its strong gross profit margins. Over
the last five years, the Company has grown from
480
Dick's Sporting Goods stores at the end of fiscal 2011 to
676
Dick's Sporting Goods stores at the end of fiscal
2016
. The Company's eCommerce sales penetration to total net sales has increased from
3.5%
in fiscal 2011 to
11.9%
in fiscal
2016
.
In recent years, the Company has innovated its eCommerce sites with enhancements in the customer experience, new releases of its mobile and tablet sites, and development of 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 that are consistent across our stores and our eCommerce websites. On average, approximately 80% of the Company's eCommerce sales are generated within brick and mortar trade areas.
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, cash and working capital. See further discussion of the Company's consolidated same store sales within Part II, Item 6. "Selected Financial Data".
|
|
•
|
Operating cash flow – Cash flow generation supports the general operating needs of the Company and funds capital expenditures from its 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 positive operating cash flows and proportionately higher net income levels in our fiscal fourth quarter in connection with the holiday selling season and in part to sales of cold weather sporting goods and apparel. See further discussion of the Company's cash flows in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" 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 on a department and style level. This analysis helps the Company manage inventory levels to reduce cash flow 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.

Note - As retailers vary in how they record costs of operating their stores and supply chain between cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), our gross profit rate and SG&A rate may not be comparable to other retailers. For additional information regarding the types of costs classified within cost of goods sold, SG&A or any other financial statement line item presented herein, refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data", of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Fiscal
2016
(52 weeks) Compared to Fiscal
2015
(52 weeks)
Net Sales
Net sales
increased
9%
to
$7,922.0 million
in fiscal
2016
from
$7,271.0 million
in fiscal
2015
due primarily to the growth of our store network and a
3.5%
increase
in consolidated same store sales. The
3.5%
increase
in consolidated same store sales contributed $245.6 million of the increase in net sales during fiscal 2016. The remaining $405.4 million increase in net sales was attributable to new stores. The
3.5%
increase
in consolidated same store sales consisted of a
3.7%
increase
at Dick's Sporting Goods and a
0.2%
increase
at Golf Galaxy. eCommerce sales penetration was
11.9%
of total net sales during fiscal 2016 compared to
10.3%
of total net sales during fiscal
2015
, representing an increase of approximately 26% in eCommerce sales.
The
increase
in consolidated same store sales was driven by broad-based increases across our hardlines, apparel and footwear categories. The same store sales
increase
at Dick's Sporting Goods was driven by
an increase
in transactions of approximately
2.1%
and
an increase
in sales per transaction of approximately
1.6%
.
24
Income from Operations
Income from operations
decreased
$85.3 million to
$449.9 million
in fiscal
2016
from
$535.2 million
in fiscal
2015
.
Gross profit
increased
8%
to
$2,365.8 million
in fiscal
2016
from
$2,182.9 million
in fiscal
2015
, but
decreased
as a percentage of net sales by
16
basis points compared to fiscal
2015
.
Given the continuing consolidation that is occurring in the sporting goods industry, the Company conducted a thorough review of its business, including its merchandising strategy, vendor structure and its stores. As a result of this review, the Company is implementing a new merchandising and vendor strategy to better serve its customers. The Company will leverage its relationships with strategic vendors to drive growth through exclusive and differentiated products. During fiscal 2016, the Company recognized a $46.4 million inventory write-down, or 59 basis points, to reflect merchandise that does not fit with its go forward merchandising strategy to its net realizable value.
Apart from the inventory write-down, merchandise margin expanded by 61 basis points when compared to fiscal 2015, which was primarily driven by lower promotional activity during fiscal 2016. The improvement in merchandise margin was partially offset by higher shipping expenses during fiscal 2016 resulting from the growth and increased penetration of eCommerce sales as compared to the Company's total net sales. Occupancy costs
increased
$68.4 million
from fiscal
2015
but leveraged slightly compared to fiscal 2015. 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. As a percentage of net sales, occupancy costs
increased
at a slightly lower rate than the 9% increase in net sales during fiscal 2016.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased
16%
to
$1,875.6 million
in fiscal
2016
from
$1,613.1 million
in fiscal
2015
, and
increased
as a percentage of net sales by
149
basis points. Fiscal 2016 includes $49.1 million of charges for asset write-downs, impairments and merger and integration costs. Fiscal 2015 included a litigation settlement charge of $7.9 million.
The Company's comprehensive review of its business referenced above resulted in the closure of three Dick's Sporting Goods stores. The Company also closed ten Golf Galaxy stores that were located in close proximity to an acquired Golfsmith store that is better positioned to serve our customers. Further, the Company impaired assets of 12 stores and wrote-down the carrying value of a corporate aircraft that is held for sale to its fair market value. The current year charges also include TSA and Golfsmith integration costs.
Apart from the enumerated items affecting both fiscal 2016 and 2015, selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of net sales by 98 basis points. This increase was due primarily to higher administrative payroll, incentive compensation and benefit costs and higher store payroll costs as the Company continued to invest to enhance the shopping experience within its stores compared to the same period last year.
Pre-opening expenses
increased
to
$40.3 million
in fiscal
2016
from
$34.6 million
in fiscal
2015
. Pre-opening expenses in any period fluctuate depending on the timing and number of store openings and relocations. Fiscal 2016 includes costs incurred by the Company to convert TSA and Golfsmith stores to Dick's Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy stores totaling $5.1 million. Pre-opening rent expenses for our self-developed store sites will generally exceed those for sites built to our specifications by our landlords as we commence recognition of rent expense when we take possession of a site.
Other (Income) Expense
Other income increased to $14.4 million in fiscal 2016 compared to $0.3 million of expense in fiscal 2015. 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 $7.2 million during fiscal 2016 compared to an investment loss of $1.7 million during fiscal 2015, primarily driven by an overall improvement in the equity markets, which impacted the deferred compensation plan investment values. Fiscal 2016 also includes a $4.0 million gain for the Company's share of profits from the liquidation of former Golfsmith stores as well as a $2.9 million benefit from a multi-year sales tax refund.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was
37.3%
for fiscal
2016
as compared to
37.8%
for fiscal
2015
primarily due to the partial reversal of a valuation allowance resulting from realization of capital gains in the current fiscal year.
25
Fiscal
2015
(52 weeks) Compared to Fiscal
2014
(52 weeks)
Net Sales
Net sales increased 7% to $7,271.0 million in fiscal 2015 from $6,814.5 million in fiscal 2014 due primarily to the growth of our store network, partially offset by a 0.2% decrease in consolidated same store sales. Noncomparable sales increased $468.0 million due to new stores, partially offset by an $11.5 million sales decrease caused by the 0.2% decrease in consolidated same store sales. The 0.2% decrease in consolidated same store sales consisted of a 0.1% increase at Dick's Sporting Goods and a 5.6% decrease at Golf Galaxy. eCommerce sales penetration was 10.3% of total net sales during the current period compared to 9.2% of total net sales during fiscal 2014, representing an approximate increase of 19% in eCommerce sales.
The decrease in consolidated same store sales was primarily driven by a decrease within the softlines category, partially offset by increases within the hardlines and footwear categories. The decrease in softlines, which was most notably driven by sales declines in cold-weather related categories, was negatively impacted by record-setting warm weather across the majority of our markets during the back half of fiscal 2015. The same store sales increase at Dick's Sporting Goods was driven by an increase in sales per transaction of approximately 1.3% and a decrease in transactions of approximately 1.2%.
Income from Operations
Income from operations decreased $18.9 million to $535.2 million in fiscal 2015 from $554.1 million in fiscal 2014.
Gross profit increased 5% to $2,182.9 million in fiscal 2015 from $2,086.7 million in fiscal 2014, but decreased as a percentage of net sales by 60 basis points compared to fiscal 2014. Fiscal 2014 included a $2.4 million write-down of inventory from our golf restructuring. Apart from the golf restructuring, gross profit decreased 63 basis points compared to fiscal 2014. The decline in the gross profit rate was driven by a decrease in merchandise margin of 25 basis points coupled with an increase in occupancy and shipping expenses during fiscal 2015 compared to fiscal 2014. The decrease in merchandise margin was primarily driven by higher promotional activity. Occupancy costs increased $75.2 million from fiscal 2014. Our occupancy costs are generally fixed in nature and fluctuate based upon the number of stores that we operate. As a percentage of net sales, occupancy costs increased at a higher rate than the 7% increase in net sales during fiscal 2015. The increase in shipping expenses during fiscal 2015 resulted from the growth and increased penetration of eCommerce sales as compared to the Company's total net sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 7% to $1,613.1 million in fiscal 2015 from $1,502.1 million in fiscal 2014, and increased as a percentage of net sales by 15 basis points. Fiscal 2015 includes a litigation settlement charge of $7.9 million. Fiscal 2014 included (i) a pre-tax gain on the sale of a corporate aircraft of $14.4 million, and (ii) asset impairment and severance charges from the Company's golf restructuring of $14.3 million and $3.7 million, respectively. Apart from the enumerated items, selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of net sales by nine basis points. This increase was primarily driven by higher advertising expenses and planned investments to support the Company's eCommerce initiatives, partially offset by lower incentive compensation expense compared to fiscal 2014.
Pre-opening expenses increased to $34.6 million in fiscal 2015 from $30.5 million in fiscal 2014. Pre-opening expenses in any period fluctuate depending on the timing and number of store openings and relocations. Pre-opening rent expenses for our self-developed store sites will generally exceed those for sites built to our specifications by our landlords as we commence recognition of rent expense when we take possession of a site.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was 37.8% for fiscal 2015 as compared to 38.1% for fiscal 2014.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
The Company's liquidity and capital needs have generally been met by cash from operating activities supplemented by borrowings from the Company's Credit Agreement as seasonally necessary. Cash flow from operations is seasonal in our business. The Company generally utilizes its Credit Agreement for working capital needs based primarily on the seasonal nature of its operating cash flows, with the Company's peak borrowings occurring during its third quarter as the Company increases inventory in advance of the holiday selling season.
26
The Company has a $1 billion revolving senior secured credit facility, including up to $150 million in the form of letters of credit, in the event further liquidity is needed. Under the Credit Agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may request an increase of up to $250 million in borrowing availability. The Credit Agreement is further described within Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company intends to allocate capital to invest in its future growth, specifically growing its store network and eCommerce business together to deliver an omni-channel shopping experience, as well as to return capital to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.
Capital expenditures – Fiscal 2016 capital expenditures totaled $242 million on a net basis, which includes tenant allowances provided by landlords, and $422 million on a gross basis. We expect capital expenditures to be approximately $350 million on a net basis and approximately $465 million on a gross basis in fiscal 2017. Normal capital requirements primarily relate to the development of our omni-channel platform, including investments in new and existing stores and eCommerce technology. The Company also plans to invest in continuously improving its supply chain and corporate information technology infrastructure. We plan to open approximately 49 new stores and complete construction of our 5
th
distribution facility in fiscal 2017. We expect our new stores, as well as investments in our existing stores, to represent the majority of our total capital expenditures during fiscal 2017. The Company has a capital appropriations committee that approves all capital expenditures in excess of certain amounts, and groups and prioritizes all capital projects among required, discretionary and strategic categories.
Share repurchases
– On March 7, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a five-year share repurchase program of up to $1 billion of the Company's common stock. Since the beginning of 2013, we have repurchased $958.6 million of common stock and have $41.4 million remaining under this authorization. On March 16, 2016, 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. During fiscal
2016
, the Company repurchased
3.1 million
shares of its common stock for
$145.7 million
. During fiscal
2015
, the Company repurchased 7.4 million shares of its common stock for $357.3 million. 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 fiscal year ended
January 28, 2017
, the Company paid
$68.0 million
of dividends to its stockholders. 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 future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors.
27
The Company currently believes cash flows generated by operations and funds available under its Credit Agreement will be sufficient to satisfy capital requirements, including planned capital expenditures, share repurchases and quarterly dividend payments to its stockholders through fiscal
2017
. 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 those presently planned.

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, stock-based compensation expense and tax benefits on stock options, 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.
Cash provided by operating activities
increased
$115.5 million
in fiscal
2016
to
$759.0 million
. The
increase
in cash provided by operating activities is due primarily to a $171.3 million increase in cash flows provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by a $43.0 million decrease in net income and a $12.8 million decrease in non-cash items.
The
increase
in operating assets and liabilities year-over-year is primarily due to the following:
|
•
|
Cash flows provided by changes in inventory and accounts payable
increased
$77.3 million
compared to fiscal
2015
, primarily attributable to the timing of inventory receipts.
|
|
•
|
Changes in accrued expenses increased operating cash flows by $59.3 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to year-over-year changes in incentive compensation accruals and corresponding payments.
|
|
•
|
Changes in income taxes payable / receivable for fiscal
2016
increased operating cash flows by
$18.9 million
compared to the same period in fiscal
2015
, primarily due to the timing of tax payments. Tax payments are impacted year-over-year primarily by the timing of deductions from capital expenditures and the level of stock option exercises.
|
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for fiscal
2016
increased
by
$177.9 million
to
$550.3 million
from fiscal
2015
primarily due to current year acquisitions coupled with a $51.9 million increase in gross capital expenditures. During fiscal 2016, the Company acquired certain assets of TSA and Golfsmith as well as two sports management technology companies, Affinity Sports and GameChanger, for $118.8 million. The increase in gross capital expenditures was primarily driven by the Company's full-service footwear store initiative.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities consists primarily of the Company's capital return initiatives, including its share repurchase program and cash dividend payments, and cash flows generated from stock option exercises. Cash used in financing activities for fiscal
2016
totaled
$162.9 million
compared to
$373.7 million
in fiscal
2015
. The Company repurchased $145.7 million of common stock during fiscal
2016
compared to $357.3 million during fiscal
2015
.

January 28, 2017
are described under the heading "Operating lease obligations" in the table above.
29
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, which were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Critical accounting policies are those that the Company believes are both most important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of operations, and require the Company's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions.
The Company considers the following policies to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing its consolidated financial statements.
Inventory Valuation
The Company values inventory using the lower of weighted average cost or market method. Market price is generally based on the selling price expectations of the merchandise. The Company regularly reviews inventories to determine if the carrying value of the inventory exceeds market value and the Company records a reserve to reduce the carrying value to its market price, as necessary. Changes in customer merchandise preference, consumer spending, weather patterns, economic conditions, business trends or merchandising strategies could cause the Company's inventory to be exposed to obsolescence or slow moving merchandise.
Shrink expense is accrued as a percentage of merchandise sales based on historical shrink trends. The Company performs physical inventories at its stores and distribution centers throughout the year. The reserve for shrink represents an estimate for shrink for each of the Company's locations since the last physical inventory date through the reporting date. Estimates by location and in the aggregate are impacted by internal and external factors and may vary significantly from actual results.
Vendor Allowances
Vendor allowances include allowances, rebates and cooperative advertising funds received from vendors. These funds are determined for each fiscal year and the majority are based on various quantitative contract terms. Amounts expected to be received from vendors for the purchase of merchandise inventories are treated as a reduction of inventory and reduce cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Amounts that represent a reimbursement of costs incurred, such as advertising, are recorded as a reduction to the related expense in the period that the related expense is incurred. The Company records an estimate of earned allowances based on the latest projected purchase volumes and advertising forecasts.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill, indefinite-lived and other finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred. Our evaluation for impairment requires accounting judgments and financial estimates in determining the fair value of the reporting unit. If these judgments or estimates change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets.
The goodwill impairment test is a two-step impairment test. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. The Company's estimates may differ from actual results due to, among other things, economic conditions, changes to its business models, or changes in operating performance. Significant differences between these estimates and actual results could result in future impairment charges and could materially affect the Company's future financial results. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company must perform the second step in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill. The activities in the second step include valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of the impaired reporting unit based on their fair value and determining the fair value of the impaired reporting unit's goodwill based upon the residual of the aggregate identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. As of
January 28, 2017
, the Company had no reporting unit(s) at risk for goodwill impairment.
30
Intangible assets that have been determined to have indefinite lives are also not subject to amortization and are reviewed at least annually for potential impairment, or more frequently as mentioned above. The fair value of the Company's intangible assets are estimated and compared to their carrying value. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these types of assets. This approach is dependent on a number of factors, including estimates of future sales growth and trends, royalty rates in the category of intellectual property, discount rates and other variables. If actual results are not consistent with our estimates and assumptions used in estimating fair value, the Company may be exposed to losses that could be material. The Company does not believe there is reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the estimates or assumptions used to calculate fair value. The Company recognizes an impairment charge when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than the carrying value.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Closed Store Reserves
The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Assets are reviewed at the lowest level for which cash flows can be identified, which is the store level. The Company uses an income approach to determine the fair value of individual store locations, which requires discounting projected future cash flows over its remaining lease term. When determining the stream of projected future cash flows associated with an individual store location, the Company makes assumptions, incorporating local market conditions, about key store variables including sales growth rates, gross margin and controllable expenses, such as store payroll. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the store location is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
Based on an analysis of current and future store performance, management periodically evaluates the need to close underperforming stores. Reserves are established for the present value of any remaining operating lease obligations, net of estimated sublease income, when the Company ceases to use the location. If the timing or amount of actual sublease income differs from estimated amounts, this could result in an increase or decrease in the related reserves.
Self-Insurance
The Company is self-insured for certain losses related to health, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, although we maintain stop-loss coverage with third party insurers to limit our liability exposure. Liabilities associated with these losses are estimated in part by considering historical claims experience, industry factors, severity factors and other actuarial assumptions.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with fair value recognition provisions, under which the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the input of assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them ("expected term"), the estimated volatility of the Company's common stock price over the expected term and the expected dividend yield. In addition, we estimate the number of awards that will ultimately not complete their vesting requirements ("forfeitures") and recognize expense for those stock awards expected to vest. Changes in the assumptions can materially affect the estimate of fair value of stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amount recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company only recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous. As such, we are required to make many subjective assumptions and judgments regarding our income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax laws and regulations change over time. As such, changes in our assumptions and judgments can materially affect amounts recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Income.
31
Interest Rate Risk
The Company maintains a revolving credit facility to support potential liquidity and capital needs. Our interest rate under the Credit Agreement is benchmarked to, at the Company's option, a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin percentage. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
.
The Company holds highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase that are classified as cash equivalents. The Company had cash equivalent investments at
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
totaling
$81.6 million
and
$35.2 million
, respectively. As these investments are short-term in nature, changes in interest rates generally would not have a material impact on the valuation of these investments.
During fiscal
2016
and
2015
, a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would not have materially affected the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Impact of Inflation
Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our products and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales if the selling prices of our products do not increase with inflation.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
The Company's business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Significant portions of the Company's net sales and profits are realized during the fourth quarter of the Company's fiscal year, which is due in part to the holiday selling season and in part to sales of cold weather sporting goods and apparel. Any decrease in fiscal fourth quarter sales, whether because of a slow holiday selling season, unseasonable weather conditions or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results for the entire fiscal year.
The financial statements required to be filed hereunder are set forth on pages 40 through 64 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
None.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
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 (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of
January 28, 2017
, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information for the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
32
Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes: maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in
Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013)
, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of
January 28, 2017
.
Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting included on the following page of this document.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended January 28, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations of Control Systems
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 error or mistake. 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 error 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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of
January 28, 2017
, based on criteria established in
Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying
Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
January 28, 2017
, based on the criteria established in
Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended
January 28, 2017
of the Company and our report dated
March 24, 2017
expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
January 28, 2017
. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries as of
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
January 28, 2017
, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of
January 28, 2017
, based on the criteria established in
Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated
March 24, 2017
expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Operations –
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 a blend of dedicated associates, in-store services and unique specialty shop-in-shops. The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream and other specialty concept stores, and Dick's Team Sports HQ. 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.
Fiscal Year –
The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January. Fiscal years
2016
,
2015
and
2014
ended on
January 28, 2017
,
January 30, 2016
and
January 31, 2015
, respectively.
Principles of Consolidation –
The Consolidated Financial Statements include Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements –
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents –
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Cash equivalents are considered Level 1 investments and totaled
$81.6 million
and
$35.2 million
at
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
, respectively.
Cash Management –
The Company's cash management system provides for the reimbursement of all major bank disbursement accounts on a daily basis. Accounts payable at
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
include
$152.5 million
and
$135.1 million
, respectively, of checks drawn in excess of cash balances not yet presented for payment.
Accounts Receivable –
Accounts receivable consist principally of amounts receivable from vendors and landlords. The
allowance for doubtful accounts totaled
$3.2 million
and
$2.7 million
as of
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
respectively.
Inventories –
Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost or market. Inventory costs consist of the direct cost of merchandise including freight. Inventories are net of shrinkage, obsolescence, other valuation accounts and vendor allowances totaling
$176.4 million
and
$113.5 million
at
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
, respectively.
Property and Equipment –
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include capitalized leases. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
|
Buildings
|
40 years
|
|
|
Leasehold improvements
|
10-25 years
|
|
|
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
|
3-7 years
|
|
|
Computer software
|
3-10 years
|
|
For leasehold improvements and property and equipment under capital lease agreements, depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Leasehold improvements made significantly after the initial lease term are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. Depreciation expense was
$203.1 million
,
$178.9 million
and
$159.1 million
for fiscal
2016
,
2015
and
2014
, respectively.
Renewals and betterments are capitalized and repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
|
||
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Closed Store Reserves –
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets to assess whether the carrying values have been impaired whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus eventual net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. When an impairment loss is recognized, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value as determined based on quoted market prices or through the use of other valuation techniques. The related expense is recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company recognizes a liability for costs associated with closed or relocated premises when the Company ceases to use the location. The calculation of accrued lease termination and other costs primarily includes future minimum lease payments, maintenance costs and taxes from the date of closure or relocation to the end of the remaining lease term, net of contractual or estimated sublease income. The liability is discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of interest. The assumptions used in the calculation of the accrued lease termination and other costs are evaluated on a quarterly basis. The current portion of accrued store closing and relocation reserves is included within accrued expenses and the non-current portion is included within long-term deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The related expense is recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Goodwill –
Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired entities. The Company assesses the carrying value of goodwill annually or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred.
The goodwill impairment test is a two-step impairment test. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company must perform the second step in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied estimated fair value, an impairment charge to selling, general and administrative expenses is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the implied estimated fair value. A reporting unit is the operating segment, or a business unit one level below that operating segment, for which discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management.
Intangible Assets –
Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and acquired trade names with indefinite lives, which are tested for impairment annually or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. The Company's finite-lived intangible assets consist primarily of customer lists, favorable lease assets and other acquisition related assets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful economic lives and are reviewed for impairment when factors indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The Company recognizes an impairment charge when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than the carrying value.
Self-Insurance –
The Company is self-insured for certain losses related to health, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, although we maintain stop-loss coverage with third party insurers to limit our liability exposure. Liabilities associated with these losses are estimated in part by considering historical claims experience, industry factors, severity factors and other actuarial assumptions.
Pre-opening Expenses –
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.
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, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, restricted stock and warrants.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
|
||
Stock-Based Compensation –
The Company has the ability to grant restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units and stock options to purchase common stock under the Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan. The Company records stock-based compensation expenses based on the fair value of stock awards at the grant date and recognizes the expense over the related service period.
Income Taxes –
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes and provides deferred income taxes for temporary differences between the amounts reported for assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and for income tax reporting purposes, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the relevant taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon ultimate settlement. Interest and penalties from income tax matters are recognized in income tax expense.
Revenue Recognition –
Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, net of sales tax. Revenue from eCommerce sales is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. Service-related revenue is recognized as the services are performed. 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. These cards have no expiration date. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income within selling, general and administrative expenses at the point at which redemption becomes remote. The Company performs an evaluation of the aging of the unredeemed cards, based on the elapsed time from the date of original issuance, to determine when redemption becomes remote.
Cost of Goods Sold –
Cost of goods sold includes: the cost of merchandise (inclusive of vendor allowances, inventory shrinkage and inventory write-downs for the lower of cost or market); 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, fixture lease expenses and certain insurance expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses –
Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company's corporate headquarters.
Advertising Costs –
Production costs of advertising and the costs to run the advertisements are expensed the first time the advertisement takes place. Advertising expense, net of cooperative advertising, was
$304.9 million
,
$276.3 million
and
$248.7 million
for fiscal
2016
,
2015
and
2014
, respectively.
Vendor Allowances –
Vendor allowances include allowances, rebates and cooperative advertising funds received from vendors. These funds are determined for each fiscal year and the majority are based on various quantitative contract terms. Amounts expected to be received from vendors for the purchase of merchandise inventories are recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Amounts that represent a reimbursement of costs incurred, such as advertising, are recorded as a reduction to the related expense in the period that the related expense is incurred. The Company records an estimate of earned allowances based on the latest projected purchase volumes and advertising forecasts.

Construction Allowances –
All of the Company's store locations are leased. The Company may receive reimbursement from a landlord for some of the cost of the structure, subject to satisfactory fulfillment of applicable lease provisions. These reimbursements may be referred to as tenant allowances, construction allowances or landlord reimbursements ("construction allowances").
The Company's accounting for construction allowances differs if the Company is deemed to be the owner of the asset during the construction period. Some of the Company's leases have a cap on the construction allowance, which places the Company at risk for cost overruns and causes the Company to be deemed the owner during the construction period. In cases where the Company is deemed to be the owner during the construction period, a sale and leaseback of the asset occurs when construction of the asset is complete and the lease term begins, if relevant sale-leaseback accounting criteria are met. Any gain or loss from the transaction is included within deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and deferred and amortized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company reports the amount of cash received for the construction allowance as construction allowance receipts within the financing activities section of its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when such allowances are received prior to completion of the sale-leaseback transaction. The Company reports the amount of cash received from construction allowances as proceeds from sale leaseback transactions within the investing activities section of its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when such amounts are received after the sale-leaseback accounting criteria have been achieved.
In instances where the Company is not deemed to be the owner during the construction period, reimbursement from a landlord for tenant improvements is classified as an incentive and included within deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The deferred rent credit is amortized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Landlord reimbursements from these transactions are included in cash flows from operating activities as a change in deferred construction allowances.
Leases –
Escalating rent payments, rent abatements and rent holidays are considered in the calculation of minimum lease payments in the Company's capital lease tests and in determining straight-line rent expense for operating leases. The Company records any difference between the straight-line rent amount and amounts payable under the lease as part of deferred rent within long-term deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contingent payments based upon sales and future increases determined by inflation related indices cannot be estimated at the inception of the lease and accordingly, are charged to operations as incurred. The Company records contingent rent within accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04, "
Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test of Goodwill Impairment
". This update modifies the concept of impairment and simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. ASU 2017-04 is effective for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests during fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application is permitted and prospective application is required. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Income Taxes
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, "
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
". This update requires the income tax consequences of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory to be recognized when the intra-entity transfer occurs rather than deferring recognition of income tax consequences until the transfer was made with an outside party. ASU 2016-16 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of the interim or annual reporting period. A modified retrospective approach should be applied. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2016-16 during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Statement of Cash Flows
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "
Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force)
". This update addresses eight specific cash flow topics with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice for certain aspects under Topic 230. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of the interim or annual reporting period. If early adopted, an entity must adopt all of the amendments during the same period. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2016-15 during the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Stock Compensation
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "
Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting
". This update simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early application permitted. If early adopted, an entity must adopt all of the amendments during the same period. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, however, the Company's effective income tax rate will be impacted by the volume of share-based award activity during each reporting period.
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued 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. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements but anticipates that it will result in significant right of use assets and related liabilities as all of the Company's retail locations and the majority of our supply chain facilities are categorized as operating leases.

Measurement of Inventory
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, "
Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory
". This update requires an entity that determines the cost of inventory by methods other than last-in, first-out (LIFO) and the retail inventory method (RIM) to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016. Prospective application is required. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of the interim or annual reporting period. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
". This update requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, the update (1) specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and (2) expands disclosure requirements for revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB subsequently issued ASU 2015-14, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Deferral of the Effective Date
", which approved a one year deferral of ASU 2014-09 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period.
In March 2016, April 2016, and December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)
", ASU 2016-10, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing
", and ASU 2016-20, "
Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers"
, respectively, which further clarify the guidance for those specific topics within ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, "
Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients
", to reduce the risk of diversity in practice for certain aspects in ASU 2014-09, including collectibility, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. These updates permit the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early application is permitted as of the original effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. These ASU's will most likely change the way the Company accounts for sales returns, our customer loyalty program, gift card breakage and certain other promotional programs. Based on current estimates, we do not expect these provisions of the ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements. The Company is continuing to evaluate which transition approach it will utilize and the impact these standards will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Revolving Credit Agreement
–
On August 12, 2015, the Company entered into a
five
-year senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") that amended and restated the Company's then existing credit facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a
$1 billion
revolving credit facility, including up to
$150 million
in the form of letters of credit and allows the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to request an increase of up to
$250 million
in borrowing availability to the extent that existing or new lenders agree to provide such additional revolving commitments.
Subject to specified conditions, the Credit Agreement matures on August 12, 2020. It 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 Agreement 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 Agreement contains a covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum adjusted availability of
7.5%
of its borrowing base. The Credit Agreement 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; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of the Company's assets. Other than in certain limited conditions, the Company is permitted to pay dividends and repurchase shares pursuant to its stock repurchase program. As of January 28, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

8. Operating 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 2034. 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, and in some cases, contingent rent stated as a percentage of gross sales over certain base amounts. Rent expense under these operating leases totaled approximately
$501.9 million
,
$469.0 million
and
$441.5 million
for fiscal
2016
,
2015
and
2014
, respectively.

Stock Option Plans
–
Stock options are generally granted on an annual basis, vest
25%
per year over
four
years and have a
seven
-year maximum term.
The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes ("Black-Scholes") option valuation model. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of options granted are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and the Company's experience. These options are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, which is considered to be the requisite service period. Compensation expense is recognized only for those options expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant based on the Company's historical experience and future expectations.

It is possible that these examinations may be resolved within 12 months. Due to the potential for resolution of these examinations, and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible that
$3.3 million
of the Company's gross unrecognized tax benefits and interest at
January 28, 2017
could be recognized within the next 12 months. The Company does not anticipate that changes in its unrecognized tax benefits will have a material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Income during fiscal
2017
.
The Company participates in the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Compliance Assurance Program ("CAP"). As part of the CAP, tax years are audited on a contemporaneous basis so that all or most issues are resolved prior to the filing of the tax return. The IRS has completed examinations of 2015 and all prior tax years. The Company is no longer subject to examination in any of its major state jurisdictions for years prior to
2009
.

The Company is involved in legal proceedings incidental to the normal conduct of its business. Although the outcome of any pending legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that adequate insurance coverage is maintained and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, financial position or results of operations.
15. Fair Value Measurements
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.

Consists of investments in various mutual funds made by eligible individuals as part of the Company's deferred compensation plans (See Note 13).
|
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities approximated book value due to the short-term nature of these instruments at both
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
.
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. The Company did not transfer any assets or liabilities among the levels of the fair value hierarchy during the fiscal years ended
January 28, 2017
and
January 30, 2016
. Additionally, the Company did not hold any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities during fiscal
2016
and fiscal
2015
.
