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

1.  Basis of Presentation

Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, referred to as "the Company", "we", "us" and "our" unless specified otherwise) is a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high-quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories through 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 as well as eCommerce websites at www.DICKS.com, www.golfgalaxy.com, www.fieldandstreamshop.com and www.caliastudio.com. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires or otherwise specifies, any reference to "year" is to the Company's fiscal year.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all the disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information. This unaudited interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 30, 2016 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2016 . Operating results for the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 28, 2017 or any other period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Stock Compensation

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("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 is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

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.

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.

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

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 related to 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 and April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, " Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) ", and ASU 2016-10, " Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing ", respectively, which further clarify the guidance related to 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. The Company is currently evaluating which transition approach it will utilize and the impact these standards will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts for the period ended May 2, 2015 within the Consolidated Balance Sheets to conform to current year presentation.

The calculation of accrued store closing and relocation reserves 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 store closing and relocation reserves are evaluated each quarter.

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

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

Level 1:
Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2:
Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 30, 2016 and January 30, 2016 are set forth in the table below (in thousands):
Level 1

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

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, revolving credit borrowings and certain other liabilities approximated book value due to the short-term nature of these instruments at both April 30, 2016 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 within the fair value hierarchy during the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 or the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016. Additionally, the Company did not hold any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities during the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 or the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016.

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 as well as eCommerce websites at www.DICKS.com, www.golfgalaxy.com, www.fieldandstreamshop.com and www.caliastudio.com. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires or otherwise specifies, any reference to "year" is to the Company's fiscal year.

The 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. For example, in the last five years, the Company has grown from 447 Dick's Sporting Goods stores as of April 30, 2011 to 647 Dick's Sporting Goods stores as of April 30, 2016 . The Company's eCommerce sales penetration to total net sales has increased from 2.5% to 9.2% for the year-to-date period ended April 30, 2011 and April 30, 2016 , respectively.


12

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 the stores and eCommerce websites. On average, approximately 80% of the Company's eCommerce sales are generated within brick and mortar store 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 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. A store is included in the same store sales calculation during the same fiscal period that it commences its 14 th full month of operations. Stores that were closed or relocated during the applicable period have been excluded from same store sales. Each relocated store is returned to the same store sales base during the fiscal period that it commences its 14 th full month of operations at the new location. See further discussion of our consolidated same store sales in the "Results of Operations and Other Selected Data" section herein.

▪
Operating cash flow – Cash flow generation supports the general operating needs of the Company and funds capital expenditures related to its omni-channel platform, distribution and administrative facilities, costs associated with continued improvement of information technology tools, costs associated with 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 and Changes in Financial Condition" section herein.

▪
Quality of merchandise offerings – To measure acceptance of its merchandise offerings, the Company monitors sell-throughs, inventory turns, gross margins and markdown rates 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.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
As discussed in Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2016 , the Company considers its policies on inventory valuation, vendor allowances, goodwill and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and closed store reserves, self-insurance reserves, stock-based compensation and uncertain tax positions to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements. There have been no changes in the Company's critical accounting policies during the quarter ended April 30, 2016 .

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 unaudited 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.

(2)
Cost of goods sold includes: the cost of merchandise, inclusive of vendor allowances, inventory shrinkage and inventory write-downs for the lower of cost 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.
(3)
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.

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

(5)
Includes Dick's Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream and other specialty concept stores.

13 Weeks Ended April 30, 2016 Compared to the 13 Weeks Ended May 2, 2015
Net Sales

Net sales increased 6% in the current quarter to $1.7 billion from $1.6 billion for the quarter ended May 2, 2015 due primarily to the growth of our store network and a 0.5% increase in consolidated same store sales. The 0.5% increase in consolidated same store sales contributed $7.1 million of the increase in net sales for the quarter ended April 30, 2016 . The remaining $87.9 million increase in sales is attributable to new stores. The 0.5% increase in consolidated same store sales consisted of a 0.4% increase at Dick's Sporting Goods and a 1.7% increase at Golf Galaxy. eCommerce sales penetration was 9.2% of total net sales during the current quarter compared to 8.5% of total net sales during the quarter ended May 2, 2015 , representing an approximate increase of 15% in eCommerce sales.

The increase in consolidated same store sales was primarily driven by increases within our hardlines, footwear and apparel categories, despite a slight decrease within the athletic apparel business. The same store sales increase at Dick's Sporting Goods was driven by an increase in sales per transaction of approximately 1.0% partially offset by a decrease in transactions of approximately 0.5% . Based upon the current quarter sales mix, every 1% change in consolidated same store sales , which consists of both brick and mortar and eCommerce sales, would impact earnings before income taxes for the current quarter by approximately $5.2 million .

Income from Operations
Income from operations decreased to $90.7 million in the current quarter from $101.9 million for the quarter ended May 2, 2015 .
Gross profit increased 6% to $495.8 million in the current quarter from $469.0 million for the quarter ended May 2, 2015 , and decreased as a percentage of net sales by 10 basis points compared to the same period last year. Merchandise margins increased 19 basis points during the current quarter compared to the same period last year due to higher initial markups on regular priced sales coupled with lower inventory markdowns. However, increases in occupancy and shipping expenses more than offset the improvement in merchandise margin. Occupancy costs increased $14.9 million in the current quarter from the quarter ended May 2, 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 higher rate than the 6% increase in net sales during the current quarter. Every 10 basis point change in merchandise margin would impact earnings before income taxes for the current quarter by approximately $1.6 million .

15


Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10% to $398.6 million in the current quarter from $360.7 million for the quarter ended May 2, 2015 , and increased as a percentage of net sales by 96 basis points. This increase was primarily driven by higher store payroll costs as the Company continued to invest to enhance the shopping experience within its stores and higher administrative, payroll and related benefit costs to support planned future growth initiatives compared to the same period last year.

Pre-opening expenses increased to $6.5 million in the current quarter from $6.3 million for the quarter ended May 2, 2015 . Pre-opening expenses in any period fluctuate depending on the timing and number of new 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 are in possession of the site for a longer period of time, which accelerates expense recognition but does not impact the timing of rent payments.

Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate decreased to 37.9% for the quarter ended April 30, 2016 from 38.8% for the same period last year due primarily to earlier legislative approval for certain employment tax credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Overview
The Company's liquidity and capital needs have generally been met by cash from operating activities with additional liquidity from the Company's revolving credit facility. Cash flow from operations is seasonal in our business. Typically, we use cash flow from operations to increase inventory in advance of peak selling seasons, with the pre-holiday inventory increase being the largest. In the fourth quarter, inventory levels are reduced in connection with sales during the holiday season and this inventory reduction, combined with proportionately higher net income, typically produces significant positive cash flow.

The Company has a $1 billion revolving senior secured credit facility, including up to $150 million in the form of letters of credit, (the "Credit Agreement") 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 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.

The Company intends to allocate capital to invest in its future growth, specifically the development of its omni-channel platform and specialty store concepts, as well as to return capital to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.


16

Capital expenditures – Normal capital requirements primarily relate to the development of our omni-channel platform, including new and existing Dick's Sporting Goods stores and eCommerce technology investments. The Company also plans to invest in its specialty store concepts and continuously improve its supply chain and corporate information technology infrastructure. 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 $862.9 million of common stock and have $137.1 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 the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 , the Company repurchased 1.1 million shares of its common stock for $50.0 million . Any future share repurchase programs are subject to the final determination of our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors.
Dividends – During the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 , the Company paid $17.6 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.
The Company currently believes that cash flows generated by operations and funds available under its Credit Agreement will be sufficient to satisfy current capital requirements through the remainder of fiscal 2016 . Other investment opportunities, such as potential strategic acquisitions, share repurchases, investments or store expansion rates in excess of those presently planned may require additional funding.

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 used in operating activities increased $35.6 million for the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 compared to the same period last year. The increase in cash used in operating activities is due primarily to a $38.4 million decrease in operating assets and liabilities and a $6.5 million decrease in net income, partially offset by a $9.3 million increase in non-cash items period-over-period.

The decrease in operating assets and liabilities is due primarily to the following:

▪
Changes in deferred construction allowances decreased operating cash flows by $24.4 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to the timing of collections associated with self-developed stores where tenant allowances are provided by landlords.

▪
Changes in accounts receivable decreased operating cash flows by $22.1 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to timing of collections associated with vendor funded store initiatives.


17

▪
Changes in accrued expenses increased operating cash flows by $20.2 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to lower incentive compensation accruals in fiscal 2015 that were subsequently paid during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to those balances accrued at the end of fiscal 2014 and subsequently paid during the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities increased $22.7 million for the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 compared to the same period last year due to a $23.1 million increase in gross capital expenditures. This increase in gross capital expenditures was primarily driven by incremental investments related to the Company's full-service footwear deck build-out.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by 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 provided by financing activities for the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2016 totaled $62.4 million compared to cash used by financing activities of $109.7 million for the comparable period of the prior year. The Company repurchased $100.0 million fewer shares during the quarter ended April 30, 2016 compared to the prior year comparable quarter.

Event Subsequent to Quarter-end
Dividend – On May 13, 2016 , the Company's Board of Directors authorized and declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.15125 per share of common stock and Class B common stock payable on June 30, 2016 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 10, 2016 .

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company's off-balance sheet arrangements as of April 30, 2016 primarily relate to store operating leases and purchase obligations for marketing commitments, including naming rights, licenses for trademarks, corporate aircraft and technology-related and other commitments. The Company has excluded these items from the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company does not believe that any of these arrangements have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or resources.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments
The Company is party to many contractual obligations that involve commitments to make payments to third parties in the ordinary course of business. For a description of the Company's contractual obligations and other commercial commitments as of January 30, 2016 , see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016 , filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2016 . During the current quarter, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in the Company's market risk exposures from those reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2016 .
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
During the first quarter of fiscal 2016 , there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
During the quarter, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, April 30, 2016 .

18

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