On September 8, 2025, Dick’s announced the completion of its acquisition of Foot Locker, Inc. (“Foot Locker”), a prominent footwear and apparel retailer, for approximately $2.5 billion in cash and stock.
On August 25, 2026, before the market opened, Dick’s issued a press release announcing its financial results for the second quarter of 2026. Specifically, the Company reported adjusted earnings per share of $3.53 per share, which fell short of analysts’ estimates of $3.76 per share. Notably, Dick’s also disclosed that Foot Locker generated revenue of only $1.73 billion, significantly below analysts’ expectations of $1.81 billion. The Company also reduced its full-year 2026 consolidated net sales guidance to a range between $21.9 billion to $22.2 billion (down from $22.1 billion to $22.4 billion). Dick’s further revealed that it expected Foot Locker’s proforma comparable sales to yield a range of negative 2.0% to 0.0% for the year – a sharp deterioration from Dick’s prior forecast of 1.5% to 3% growth for Foot Locker.
In the press release, Executive Chairman Edward Stack conceded that “[a]s the quarter progressed, conditions across portions of the athletic footwear and apparel marketplace became increasingly promotional, and we took action to remain competitively priced.” Stack further explained that this environment had a more “significant impact” on Foot Locker due to its “greater exposure to legacy footwear silhouettes and greater dependence on footwear launch and retro product.” Stack also noted that “[n]ot only were there fewer launches in the second quarter, but those launches performed below both industry and our expectations.”
Following these disclosures, Dick’s stock price fell $55.02 per share, or approximately 30%, to close at $124.31 per share on August 25, 2026.
