Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
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. As of February 3, 2024, we operated 724 DICK’S Sporting Goods locations across the United States, serving and inspiring athletes and outdoor enthusiasts to achieve their personal best through a blend of dedicated teammates, in-store experiences and unique specialty shop-in-shops. In addition to DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, the Company owns and operates Golf Galaxy, Public Lands, Moosejaw and Going Going Gone! specialty concept stores, and offers its products both online and through mobile apps. The Company also owns and operates DICK’S House of Sport and Golf Galaxy Performance Center, as well as GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications, live scorekeeping and video streaming. When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires or specifies, any reference to “year” is to the Company’s fiscal year.
Fiscal Year
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January. Unless otherwise stated, references to years in this Annual Report on Form 10-K relate to fiscal years, rather than to calendar years. Fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 ended on February 3, 2024, January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. All fiscal years presented include 52 weeks of operations except fiscal 2023, which includes 53 weeks.
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 primarily consist of money market funds and commercial paper and are stated at carrying value, which approximates fair value, and are considered Level 1 investments. Interest income was $79.7 million, $27.4 million and $0.6 million for fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents were comprised of the following for the fiscal years presented (in thousands):
20232022
Cash (1)
$603,820 $725,604 
Money market funds1,197,400 911,400 
Commercial paper— 287,382 
Total cash and cash equivalents$1,801,220 $1,924,386 
(1)Cash includes amounts due from third-party financial institutions for the settlement of credit card and debit card transactions, which typically process within three business days.
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 February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023 include $56.8 million and $7.4 million, respectively, of checks drawn in excess of cash balances not yet presented for payment.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable primarily consist of amounts due from vendors and landlords. The amount of accounts receivable due from landlords as of February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, was $72.7 million and $34.3 million, respectively. The Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled $2.6 million and $2.9 million at February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively.
Inventories, net
Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Inventory costs consist of the direct cost of merchandise including freight. Inventories are net of shrinkage, obsolescence, other valuation accounts and vendor allowances, totaling $167.7 million and $139.5 million at February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include finance leases. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is 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 finance lease agreements, depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Leasehold improvements made after lease commencement are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. The Company recognized depreciation expense of $353.8 million, $332.3 million and $315.7 million in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.    
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets and assesses whether the carrying values have been impaired whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values 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 impairment 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 Company’s goodwill impairment test 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 the income approach, by using a discounted cash flow model, 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. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment charge to selling, general and administrative expenses is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the 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 of both indefinite-lived and finite-lived assets. The Company’s intangible assets are primarily indefinite-lived, consisting mostly of trademarks and acquired trade names, which the Company tests annually for impairment, or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred, using Level 3 inputs. 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 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 its 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, recruiting and other store preparation 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 and during periods when stores are closed for remodeling.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for a given 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, which include shares the Company could have been obligated to issue from its Convertible Senior Notes and warrants prior to their retirement in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, and stock-based awards, such as stock options and restricted stock. Dilutive potential common shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.
For all periods presented, dilutive potential common shares for the Company’s stock-based awards and warrants were determined using the treasury stock method. For fiscal year 2021, the dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes was calculated using the treasury stock method; however, upon the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company was required to calculate diluted earnings per common share using the if-converted method, which was applied to fiscal years 2023 and 2022. Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below for further discussion.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has the ability to grant teammates a number of different stock-based awards, including restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units and stock options to purchase common stock, under the DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. Amended and Restated 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The Company records stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of stock awards at the grant date, and recognizes the expense over the employees’ service periods, net of estimated forfeitures.
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
Sales Transactions
Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of all contractual performance obligations and transfer of control to the customer and is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for corresponding goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s sales are single performance obligation arrangements for retail sale transactions for which the transaction price is equivalent to the stated price of the product or service, net of any stated discounts applicable at a point in time. Each sales transaction results in an implicit contract with the customer to deliver a product or service at the point of sale. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale. Sales tax amounts collected from customers that are assessed by a governmental authority are excluded from revenue.
Revenue from eCommerce sales, including vendor-direct sales arrangements, is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. Shipping and handling activities occurring subsequent to the transfer of control to the customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs rather than as a promised service. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded.
Deferred Revenue
Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the “cards”) is deferred and recognized upon their redemption. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income within net sales in proportion to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer in future periods. The Company performs an evaluation of historical redemption patterns from the date of original issuance to estimate future period redemption activity. During the fiscal years ended February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, the Company recognized $27.6 million and $19.9 million of gift card breakage revenue, respectively, and experienced approximately $111.3 million and $106.2 million of gift card redemptions in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, respectively, that had been included in its gift card liability as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Based on the Company’s historical experience, the majority of gift card revenue is recognized within 12 months of deferral. The cards have no expiration date.
Loyalty program points are accrued at the estimated retail value per point, net of estimated breakage. The Company estimates the breakage of loyalty points based on historical redemption rates experienced within the loyalty program. Based on the Company’s customer loyalty program policies, the majority of program points earned are redeemed or expire within 12 months. Refer to Note 6 – Deferred Revenue and Other Liabilities for additional information regarding the amount of these liabilities at February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023.
Net sales by category
The following table disaggregates the amount of net sales attributable to hardlines, apparel and footwear for the last three fiscal years (in millions):

(1)Includes items such as sporting goods equipment, fitness equipment, golf equipment and fishing gear.
(2)Includes athletic shoes for running, walking, tennis, fitness and cross training, basketball and hiking. In addition, this category also includes specialty footwear, including casual footwear and a complete line of cleats for team sports.
(3)Includes the Company’s non-merchandise sales categories, including in-store services, shipping and GameChanger revenues.
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 net realizable value); freight; distribution; shipping; and store occupancy costs. The Company defines merchandise margin as net sales less the cost of merchandise sold. Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, general maintenance, utilities, depreciation and certain insurance expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, operating costs associated with the Company’s internal eCommerce platform, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company’s Customer Support Center (“CSC”).
Advertising Costs
Production costs for all forms 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 $478.1 million, $412.2 million and $410.9 million for fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Business Development Allowances
Business development 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 (“vendor allowances”) are recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Amounts that represent a reimbursement of advertising costs incurred, commonly referred to as cooperative advertising, are recorded as a reduction to the related expense in the period that the expense is incurred.
Segment Information
The Company is a specialty omni-channel retailer that offers a broad range of products in its specialty retail stores, which are primarily located in the eastern United States. Given the economic characteristics of the store formats, the similar nature of the products sold, the type of customer and method of distribution, the Company’s operating segments are aggregated within one reportable segment. Refer to Revenue Recognition within this Note for additional disclosure of net sales by merchandise category.
Construction Allowances
Substantially all of the Company’s store locations are leased. The Company may receive reimbursement from a landlord for a portion of the cost of the structure, subject to satisfactory fulfillment of applicable lease provisions. These reimbursements may be referred to as tenant allowances or construction allowances provided by landlords (“construction allowances”). The Company’s accounting for construction allowances differs depending on whether the Company is deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to commencement of the lease.
If the Company is not deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to lease commencement, reimbursement from a landlord for tenant improvements is classified as a lease incentive and included as a reduction to the related operating lease asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The incentive is amortized as part of operating lease 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 construction allowances provided by landlords.
If the Company is deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to lease commencement, 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 recorded in the period in which control of the underlying asset is relinquished back to the lessor. 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.
Leases
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease’s commencement date based on the present value of remaining fixed lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of the Company’s leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at a lease’s commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. The operating lease asset also includes any fixed lease payments made, net of lease incentives, and initial direct costs incurred.
Operating lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and may include certain index-based changes in rent and other non-fixed payments for services provided by the lessor. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company has lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components and elected the practical expedient to account for non-lease components, and the lease components to which they relate, as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Convertible Instruments
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40),” which removes the separation models for convertible debt with cash conversion or beneficial conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating earnings per diluted share, under which the Company must assume that any conversion of its convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Senior Notes”) will be satisfied entirely in common stock.
The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on the first day of fiscal 2022 using the modified retrospective approach, which resulted in the following adjustments to the Consolidated Balance Sheet (in millions):
Last Day of Fiscal 2021Adoption of ASU 2020-06First Day of Fiscal 2022
Balance sheet line item
Convertible senior notes due 2025$449.3 $114.0 $563.3 
Net deferred tax assets$35.0 $29.3 $64.3 
Additional paid-in capital$1,488.8 $(119.0)$1,369.8 
Retained earnings$3,956.6 $34.2 $3,990.8 
Following the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion feature of the Convertible Senior Notes is no longer separately presented within stockholders’ equity, eliminating the non-cash debt discount. Accordingly, the Company’s effective interest rate on the Convertible Senior Notes decreased from 11.6% to 3.9% upon adoption, resulting in a $27.4 million reduction in pre-tax non-cash interest expense for fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2021.
Despite the Company’s exchange of $515.9 million of principal in cash during fiscal 2022, the application of the if-converted method requires earnings per diluted share to reflect that the Convertible Senior Notes will be settled entirely in shares upon conversion. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company used the treasury stock method which allowed the Company to assume that the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes would be paid in cash. The impact of adoption was not material to earnings per diluted share.
Supplier Finance Programs
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, “Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose the key terms of its program along with information about obligations outstanding, including a roll-forward of those obligations. The Company adopted this ASU during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
The Company has entered into supply chain financing arrangements with third-party financial institutions, whereby suppliers have the opportunity to settle outstanding payment obligations early at a discount. The Company does not have an economic interest in suppliers’ voluntary participation and the Company does not provide any guarantees or pledge assets under these arrangements. The Company settles invoices with the third-party financial institutions in accordance with the original supplier payment terms. The Company’s rights and obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted by these arrangements. Liabilities associated with the funded participation in these arrangements, which are presented within accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, were $45.9 million and $40.1 million as of February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this accounting standard will have on its financial disclosures.
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires that an entity, on an annual basis, disclose additional income tax information, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments in this ASU are intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures and are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis, although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this accounting standard will have on its financial disclosures.

The dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes included shares that were designed to be offset at settlement by shares delivered from the bond hedge purchased by the Company. The shares provided by the bond hedge were anti-dilutive; accordingly, they were not treated as a reduction to diluted weighted average shares outstanding until received at settlement. In addition, the dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes included shares related to the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes. Although the Company was required to assume that the Convertible Senior Notes would be settled in shares of its common stock in accordance with the “if-converted method” under U.S. GAAP, the Company settled the Convertible Senior Notes without dilutive effect, due to cash payments for principal, shares received from the convertible bond hedge and share repurchases to offset the share settlement of the remaining $59.1 million of principal during fiscal 2023.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]  
Revolving Credit Facility Revolving Credit Facility
On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, providing for $1.6 billion in unsecured revolving credit capacity (the “Credit Facility”), of which up to $75.0 million is available for letters of credit. The Credit Facility matures on January 14, 2027, subject to extensions permitted under the Credit Agreement, and allows for $500.0 million in additional incremental borrowing capacity, subject to existing or new lenders agreeing to provide such additional revolving commitments.
The loans under the Credit Facility bear interest at an alternate base rate or an adjusted secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus, in each case, an applicable margin of 0.125% with respect to the alternate base rate and 1.125% with respect to the adjusted SOFR as of February 3, 2024, which is subject to adjustment based on the Company’s public debt rating. The Credit Facility allows voluntary repayment of outstanding loans at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs with respect to SOFR loans. The unused portion of the Credit Facility is subject to a commitment fee of 0.11% per year as of February 3, 2024, which is adjusted based on the Company’s public debt rating. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving line of credit agreements at February 3, 2024 or January 28, 2023. After adjusting for outstanding letters of credit of $16.1 million, the Company’s total remaining borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility was $1.58 billion at February 3, 2024.
The Credit Agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for unsecured financings of this type, including negative covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur liens, limit the ability of the Company to make certain fundamental changes and limit the ability of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries to incur indebtedness, in each case subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. The Credit Agreement also contains a maximum lease-adjusted leverage ratio covenant. The Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement at February 3, 2024.

The Senior Notes were issued under a base indenture, dated as of January 14, 2022 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a supplemental indenture, dated as of January 14, 2022 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), in each case by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated debt and other obligations. The Company is required to pay interest on the Senior Notes semi-annually, in arrears, on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on July 15, 2022.
Net Proceeds and Carrying Values
Net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes totaled approximately $1.5 billion, after deducting the applicable discount. The Company also incurred approximately $15.3 million in offering expenses, including underwriting fees, related to the issuance of the Senior Notes. Together, the discount, underwriting fees and offering expenses will be amortized over the respective terms of the Senior Notes using the effective interest method. The Company recognized interest expense related to the Senior Notes of $55.3 million in each of fiscal 2023 and 2022 and $2.5 million in fiscal 2021, using an effective interest rate of 3.28% on the 2032 Notes and 4.18% on the 2052 Notes.

Covenants
The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to incur certain indebtedness secured by liens on certain assets and limit the ability of the Company to make certain fundamental changes, in each case subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications described in the Indenture. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default which, if any of them occur, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Senior Notes to become or to be declared due and payable, as applicable. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at February 3, 2024.

Convertible Senior Notes [Abstract]  
Convertible Senior Notes Convertible Senior Notes
Overview
In April 2020, the Company closed on an aggregate $575.0 million of 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, including the exercise of the full $75.0 million over-allotment option, receiving proceeds of $557.6 million, net of $17.4 million of transaction fees and other third-party offering expenses. The Convertible Senior Notes accrued interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 and was subject to early conversion terms, under which the Company could settle the Convertible Senior Notes for cash, shares of the Company’s stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s option.
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes, the Company purchased a bond hedge to offset the potential dilution to stockholders from the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes, partially offsetting its cost by selling warrants to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock. These transactions effectively increased the conversion price associated with the Convertible Senior Notes.
Fiscal 2022 Convertible Senior Notes Exchanges and Fiscal 2023 Retirement
During fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023, the Company entered into multiple agreements with certain holders of the Convertible Senior Notes to exchange, and ultimately retire in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, all of its Convertible Senior Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest for a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. Concurrently with each of the exchange transactions, the Company entered into agreements with certain counterparties to terminate a proportionate amount of the bond hedge and warrant agreements (collectively, the “Notes Exchanges”).
In connection with the fiscal 2022 Notes Exchanges, the Company recognized pre-tax non-cash inducement charges of $23.3 million, which were recorded within interest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income, paid a total of $515.9 million to noteholders to redeem the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes with a carrying value of $507.0 million, and issued 9.8 million shares of the Company's common stock to terminate the proportionate amount of the bond hedge and warrants.
The retirement of the remaining $59.1 million of Convertible Senior Notes in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was substantially settled by shares of the Company’s common stock, and together with the termination of the bond hedge and warrants, the Company issued 1.7 million shares of its common stock and recorded $58.5 million to additional paid-in-capital.
As of the end of fiscal 2023, the Company no longer has outstanding Convertible Senior Notes, bond hedges or warrants.

During fiscal 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized interest expense related to the Convertible Senior Notes of $0.5 million and $36.6 million, respectively, or $0.3 million and $27.1 million, net of tax, which included the aforementioned inducement charges. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company recognized $49.5 million of interest expense related to the Convertible Senior Notes in fiscal 2021, of which $30.8 million was attributed to non-cash amortization of the debt discount and issuance fees.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements 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.
Recurring
The Company records in its Consolidated Balance Sheets deferred compensation plan assets held in trust at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs. Such assets consist of investments in various mutual and money market funds made by eligible individuals as part of the Company’s deferred compensation plans, as discussed in Note 15 – Retirement Savings Plans. As of February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s deferred compensation plans was $137.9 million and $133.5 million, respectively.
The Company discloses the fair value of its Senior Notes and Convertible Senior Notes using Level 2 inputs, which are based on quoted prices for similar or identical instruments in inactive markets, as follows (in thousands):

$— $— $58,271 $232,488 
(1) The Company’s Convertible Senior Notes were fully retired on April 18, 2023.
Due to their short-term nature, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities approximated their carrying values at both February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023.
Nonrecurring
Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis may include property and equipment, operating lease assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, equity and other assets. These assets are required to be assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. If an impairment is required, the asset is adjusted to fair value using Level 3 inputs.
During fiscal 2023, the Company completed a business optimization to better align its talent, organizational design and spending in support of its most critical strategies while also streamlining its overall cost structure (the “Business Optimization”). As part of the Business Optimization, the Company eliminated certain positions primarily at its CSC and optimized its outdoor business, which included the integration of its Moosejaw and Public Lands operations, decisions about their go-forward inventory assortment and a comprehensive review of their store portfolios and closure of ten Moosejaw stores. The Company incurred pre-tax charges of $84.8 million from its Business Optimization, including $46.1 million of non-cash impairments of store and intangible assets and a $12.0 million write-down of inventory. Additionally, the Company incurred $26.7 million of severance-related costs, of which $9.6 million remains to be paid over the next 12 months. The $12.0 million write-down of inventory is reflected within cost of goods sold, while the remaining $72.8 million of severance-related costs and non-cash impairments are reflected within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Income. Depreciation and amortization on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows includes $35.5 million of non-cash impairment of store assets from these actions.
During fiscal 2022, the Company decided to exit the Field & Stream brand (the “Field & Stream Exit”) and converted the then existing 17 Field & Stream stores to DICK’S House of Sport stores, expanded DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, or other specialty concept stores. The Company closed twelve of these stores for conversion during the fourth quarter of 2022 and incurred pre-tax charges totaling $30.1 million, which included $28.5 million of non-cash impairment of store assets, $0.8 million of severance and a $0.7 million write-down of inventory. The $28.5 million non-cash impairment of store assets is reflected within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Net Income and within depreciation and amortization on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

The balance at February 3, 2024 includes $2.3 million of unrecognized tax benefits that would impact our effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties from unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
As of February 3, 2024 the Company’s total liability for uncertain tax positions, including $2.2 million for interest and penalties, was approximately $5.0 million. The Company recorded $0.7 million, $0.1 million and $0.1 million during fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for the accrual of interest and penalties in the Consolidated Statements of Income. 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 2024.
Audits
The Company participates in the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Compliance Assurance Program (“CAP”). As part of 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. For tax years 2023 and 2022, the Company was accepted to the CAP Compliance Maintenance phase during which the IRS evaluates the necessary level of review based on complexity and other factors. The IRS has completed its examination for tax year 2022. For tax years 2021 and 2020, the Company was accepted into the CAP Bridge phase during which it is not the intent of the IRS to examine the tax return. Acceptance into the Bridge phase is based on a taxpayer’s low risk of noncompliance and having few, if any, material issues. The IRS has completed examinations of 2019 and all prior tax years. The Company is no longer subject to examination in any of its major state jurisdictions for years prior to 2019.
Recent Tax Legislation
On August 16, 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 that included, among other provisions, changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system, including implementing a 15% minimum tax on adjusted financial statement income for certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases after December 31, 2022 and tax incentives to promote alternative sources of energy. The Company determined the Inflation Reduction Act did not have a material impact on our financial results, including on our annual estimated effective tax rate or on our liquidity.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development introduced a framework to implement a global 15% minimum corporate tax (“Pillar Two”). The European Union issued a directive to its member states to enact the Pillar Two in their local laws effective after December 2023. A number of other countries are expected to implement similar legislation with effective dates in the future. The Company is continuing to evaluate and does not currently anticipate that Pillar Two legislation will have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Restricted Stock
The Company issues shares of restricted stock to eligible employees, which are subject to forfeiture until the end of the applicable vesting period. Restricted stock awards generally vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the employee’s continuing employment as of that date. The fair value of restricted stock is determined on the date of grant using the Company’s stock price.
Restricted stock activity for fiscal 2023 is presented in the following table:

As of February 3, 2024, total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, from nonvested shares of restricted stock was approximately $52.7 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 1.43 years.
Performance-based Restricted Stock
The Company issues performance-based restricted stock to eligible employees in support of the Company’s strategic initiatives. Performance-based restricted stock, including shares and units, generally vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant and are subject to the employees’ continued employment as of that date. Additionally, the number of awards vesting depends upon the achievement of certain performance criteria for the fiscal year in which they are granted, which can result in a payout range of 0% to 200% of the original award amount. The fair value of performance-based restricted stock is based on the Company’s stock price on the date of grant. Awards issued during fiscal 2023 assumed target, or 100%, attainment of the shares or units, which approximates the projected attainment for awards at vest date as of February 3, 2024.

As of February 3, 2024, total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, from nonvested shares of performance-based restricted stock was approximately $24.0 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 0.97 years.
Stock Options
Historically, the Company has granted stock options to certain teammates, which vested 25% per year over four years and had a seven-year contractual life. When options are exercised, the Company issues new shares of common stock.
The fair value of stock options is measured on their grant date and is recognized as expense, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Company did not grant any stock options during fiscal 2023 and 2022. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model for awards granted during fiscal 2021 as presented:
 

2021
Exercise price$72.40
Expected term (years) 
4.80
Expected volatility47.97 %
Risk-free interest rate 
0.73%
Expected dividend yield
2.00%
Weighted average grant date fair value$25.20
The risk-free interest rate is determined by using the U.S. Treasury constant maturity interest rate with a term consistent with the expected life of the option, which represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on historical experience of similar awards giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. The expected dividend yield and volatility are based on historical stock prices and dividend amounts over preceding periods equal in length to the expected life of the options. The Company applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is calculated based on historical activity. The assumptions used to calculate an option’s fair value are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and the Company’s experience.

The Company’s matching contributions under the Safe Harbor 401(k) plan are made bi-weekly, vest immediately and are equal to 100% of each eligible participant’s tax-deferred contributions up to 4% of the participant’s compensation plus 50% of the eligible participant’s tax-deferred contributions up to the next 2% of compensation. Under the previous 401(k) plan, the Company made an annual discretionary matching contribution equal to a percentage of each participant’s contribution, which vested over a period of three years, up to 10% of the participant’s compensation. The Company’s discretionary matching contribution under the previous 401(k) plan was 75% during fiscal 2021. Total employer contributions recorded under the plans, net of forfeitures, were $34.8 million, $31.6 million and $24.1 million in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company also has non-qualified deferred compensation plans for highly compensated employees whose contributions were limited under the qualified defined contribution plans. Amounts contributed and deferred under the deferred compensation plans are credited or charged with the performance of investment options offered under the plans and elected by the participants. In the event of bankruptcy, the assets of these plans are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors. The liability for compensation deferred under the Company’s plans was $137.9 million and $133.5 million as of February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively, and is included within long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Total employer contributions recorded under these plans, net of forfeitures, was $1.4 million, $1.8 million and $6.2 million in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Following the Company’s change to the Safe Harbor 401(k) plan on January 1, 2022, the Company eliminated future deferrals for one of its non-qualified plans, which affected subsequent employer contributions.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Fiscal Year
Fiscal Year
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January. Unless otherwise stated, references to years in this Annual Report on Form 10-K relate to fiscal years, rather than to calendar years. Fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 ended on February 3, 2024, January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. All fiscal years presented include 52 weeks of operations except fiscal 2023, which includes 53 weeks.
Principles of Consolidation
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
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 Management
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 primarily consist of money market funds and commercial paper and are stated at carrying value, which approximates fair value, and are considered Level 1 investments. Interest income was $79.7 million, $27.4 million and $0.6 million for fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents were comprised of the following for the fiscal years presented (in thousands):
20232022
Cash (1)
$603,820 $725,604 
Money market funds1,197,400 911,400 
Commercial paper— 287,382 
Total cash and cash equivalents$1,801,220 $1,924,386 
(1)Cash includes amounts due from third-party financial institutions for the settlement of credit card and debit card transactions, which typically process within three business days.
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 February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023 include $56.8 million and $7.4 million, respectively, of checks drawn in excess of cash balances not yet presented for payment.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable primarily consist of amounts due from vendors and landlords. The amount of accounts receivable due from landlords as of February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, was $72.7 million and $34.3 million, respectively. The Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled $2.6 million and $2.9 million at February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively.
Inventories
Inventories, net
Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Inventory costs consist of the direct cost of merchandise including freight. Inventories are net of shrinkage, obsolescence, other valuation accounts and vendor allowances, totaling $167.7 million and $139.5 million at February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include finance leases. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is 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 finance lease agreements, depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Leasehold improvements made after lease commencement are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. The Company recognized depreciation expense of $353.8 million, $332.3 million and $315.7 million in fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets and assesses whether the carrying values have been impaired whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values 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 impairment expense is recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Goodwill
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 Company’s goodwill impairment test 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 the income approach, by using a discounted cash flow model, 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. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment charge to selling, general and administrative expenses is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the 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
Intangible assets consist of both indefinite-lived and finite-lived assets. The Company’s intangible assets are primarily indefinite-lived, consisting mostly of trademarks and acquired trade names, which the Company tests annually for impairment, or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred, using Level 3 inputs. 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 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 its carrying value.
Self-Insurance
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
Pre-opening expenses, which consist primarily of rent, marketing, payroll, recruiting and other store preparation 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 and during periods when stores are closed for remodeling.
Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for a given 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, which include shares the Company could have been obligated to issue from its Convertible Senior Notes and warrants prior to their retirement in the first quarter of fiscal 2023, and stock-based awards, such as stock options and restricted stock. Dilutive potential common shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.
For all periods presented, dilutive potential common shares for the Company’s stock-based awards and warrants were determined using the treasury stock method. For fiscal year 2021, the dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes was calculated using the treasury stock method; however, upon the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company was required to calculate diluted earnings per common share using the if-converted method, which was applied to fiscal years 2023 and 2022. Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below for further discussion.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has the ability to grant teammates a number of different stock-based awards, including restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units and stock options to purchase common stock, under the DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. Amended and Restated 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The Company records stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of stock awards at the grant date, and recognizes the expense over the employees’ service periods, net of estimated forfeitures.
Income Taxes
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 Recognition
Sales Transactions
Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of all contractual performance obligations and transfer of control to the customer and is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for corresponding goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s sales are single performance obligation arrangements for retail sale transactions for which the transaction price is equivalent to the stated price of the product or service, net of any stated discounts applicable at a point in time. Each sales transaction results in an implicit contract with the customer to deliver a product or service at the point of sale. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale. Sales tax amounts collected from customers that are assessed by a governmental authority are excluded from revenue.
Revenue from eCommerce sales, including vendor-direct sales arrangements, is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. Shipping and handling activities occurring subsequent to the transfer of control to the customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs rather than as a promised service. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded.
Deferred Revenue
Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the “cards”) is deferred and recognized upon their redemption. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income within net sales in proportion to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer in future periods. The Company performs an evaluation of historical redemption patterns from the date of original issuance to estimate future period redemption activity. During the fiscal years ended February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, the Company recognized $27.6 million and $19.9 million of gift card breakage revenue, respectively, and experienced approximately $111.3 million and $106.2 million of gift card redemptions in fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022, respectively, that had been included in its gift card liability as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Based on the Company’s historical experience, the majority of gift card revenue is recognized within 12 months of deferral. The cards have no expiration date.
Loyalty program points are accrued at the estimated retail value per point, net of estimated breakage. The Company estimates the breakage of loyalty points based on historical redemption rates experienced within the loyalty program. Based on the Company’s customer loyalty program policies, the majority of program points earned are redeemed or expire within 12 months. Refer to Note 6 – Deferred Revenue and Other Liabilities for additional information regarding the amount of these liabilities at February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023.
Net sales by category
The following table disaggregates the amount of net sales attributable to hardlines, apparel and footwear for the last three fiscal years (in millions):
 
Fiscal Year
202320222021
Hardlines (1)
$4,915.5 $4,952.2 $5,407.9 
Apparel
4,329.8 4,218.1 4,131.2

Other (3)
350.4 218.8 191.5 
Total net sales$12,984.4 $12,368.2 $12,293.4 
(1)Includes items such as sporting goods equipment, fitness equipment, golf equipment and fishing gear.
(2)Includes athletic shoes for running, walking, tennis, fitness and cross training, basketball and hiking. In addition, this category also includes specialty footwear, including casual footwear and a complete line of cleats for team sports.
(3)Includes the Company’s non-merchandise sales categories, including in-store services, shipping and GameChanger revenues.
Cost of Goods Sold
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 net realizable value); freight; distribution; shipping; and store occupancy costs. The Company defines merchandise margin as net sales less the cost of merchandise sold. Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, general maintenance, utilities, depreciation and certain insurance expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, operating costs associated with the Company’s internal eCommerce platform, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company’s Customer Support Center (“CSC”).
Advertising Costs
Advertising Costs
Production costs for all forms 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 $478.1 million, $412.2 million and $410.9 million for fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Business Development Allowances
Business Development Allowances
Business development 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 (“vendor allowances”) are recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Amounts that represent a reimbursement of advertising costs incurred, commonly referred to as cooperative advertising, are recorded as a reduction to the related expense in the period that the expense is incurred.
Segment Information
Segment Information
The Company is a specialty omni-channel retailer that offers a broad range of products in its specialty retail stores, which are primarily located in the eastern United States. Given the economic characteristics of the store formats, the similar nature of the products sold, the type of customer and method of distribution, the Company’s operating segments are aggregated within one reportable segment. Refer to Revenue Recognition within this Note for additional disclosure of net sales by merchandise category.
Construction Allowances
Construction Allowances
Substantially all of the Company’s store locations are leased. The Company may receive reimbursement from a landlord for a portion of the cost of the structure, subject to satisfactory fulfillment of applicable lease provisions. These reimbursements may be referred to as tenant allowances or construction allowances provided by landlords (“construction allowances”). The Company’s accounting for construction allowances differs depending on whether the Company is deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to commencement of the lease.
If the Company is not deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to lease commencement, reimbursement from a landlord for tenant improvements is classified as a lease incentive and included as a reduction to the related operating lease asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The incentive is amortized as part of operating lease 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 construction allowances provided by landlords.
If the Company is deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to lease commencement, 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 recorded in the period in which control of the underlying asset is relinquished back to the lessor. 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.
Leases
Leases
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease’s commencement date based on the present value of remaining fixed lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of the Company’s leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at a lease’s commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. The operating lease asset also includes any fixed lease payments made, net of lease incentives, and initial direct costs incurred.
Operating lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and may include certain index-based changes in rent and other non-fixed payments for services provided by the lessor. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company has lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components and elected the practical expedient to account for non-lease components, and the lease components to which they relate, as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Convertible Instruments
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40),” which removes the separation models for convertible debt with cash conversion or beneficial conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating earnings per diluted share, under which the Company must assume that any conversion of its convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Senior Notes”) will be satisfied entirely in common stock.
The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on the first day of fiscal 2022 using the modified retrospective approach, which resulted in the following adjustments to the Consolidated Balance Sheet (in millions):
Last Day of Fiscal 2021Adoption of ASU 2020-06First Day of Fiscal 2022
Balance sheet line item
Convertible senior notes due 2025$449.3 $114.0 $563.3 
Net deferred tax assets$35.0 $29.3 $64.3 
Additional paid-in capital$1,488.8 $(119.0)$1,369.8 
Retained earnings$3,956.6 $34.2 $3,990.8 
Following the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion feature of the Convertible Senior Notes is no longer separately presented within stockholders’ equity, eliminating the non-cash debt discount. Accordingly, the Company’s effective interest rate on the Convertible Senior Notes decreased from 11.6% to 3.9% upon adoption, resulting in a $27.4 million reduction in pre-tax non-cash interest expense for fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2021.
Despite the Company’s exchange of $515.9 million of principal in cash during fiscal 2022, the application of the if-converted method requires earnings per diluted share to reflect that the Convertible Senior Notes will be settled entirely in shares upon conversion. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company used the treasury stock method which allowed the Company to assume that the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes would be paid in cash. The impact of adoption was not material to earnings per diluted share.
Supplier Finance Programs
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, “Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose the key terms of its program along with information about obligations outstanding, including a roll-forward of those obligations. The Company adopted this ASU during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
The Company has entered into supply chain financing arrangements with third-party financial institutions, whereby suppliers have the opportunity to settle outstanding payment obligations early at a discount. The Company does not have an economic interest in suppliers’ voluntary participation and the Company does not provide any guarantees or pledge assets under these arrangements. The Company settles invoices with the third-party financial institutions in accordance with the original supplier payment terms. The Company’s rights and obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted by these arrangements. Liabilities associated with the funded participation in these arrangements, which are presented within accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, were $45.9 million and $40.1 million as of February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this accounting standard will have on its financial disclosures.
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires that an entity, on an annual basis, disclose additional income tax information, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments in this ASU are intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures and are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis, although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this accounting standard will have on its financial disclosures.
