PITTSBURGH, March 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. (NYSE: DKS) today reported sales and earnings results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 28, 2012.

Fourth Quarter Results

The Company reported consolidated net income for the fourth quarter ended January 28, 2012 of $111.1 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, at the high end of the Company's revised expectations provided on January 12, 2012 of $0.87 to 0.88 per diluted share. The Company reported consolidated non-GAAP net income of $94.0 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended January 29, 2011, excluding an after-tax charge of $6.5 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, from litigation settlement costs. On a GAAP basis, the Company reported consolidated net income for the fourth quarter ended January 29, 2011 of $87.5 million, or $0.71 per diluted share.

Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2011 increased by 6.1% to $1.6 billion as compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 due primarily to the growth of the Company's store network and a 0.1% increase in consolidated same store sales. The consolidated same store sales increase was in line with the Company's revised expectations provided on January 12, 2012 and consisted of a 2.5% decrease at Dick's Sporting Goods stores, a 9.0% increase at Golf Galaxy and a 52.0% increase in the Company's eCommerce business.

"In the fourth quarter, we generated record earnings, maintained an exceptionally strong balance sheet with our cash balance growing $188 million, initiated our first ever dividend, and announced a 12-month share repurchase program," said Edward W. Stack, Chairman and CEO. "In 2012, we will continue to build on our momentum as we profitably grow the business with earnings expected to increase approximately 18 to 19%, while simultaneously investing in key strategic areas including new stores, eCommerce, inventory management systems and private brands."

New Stores

In the fourth quarter, the Company opened six Dick's Sporting Goods stores. These stores are listed in a table later in the release under the heading "Store Count and Square Footage."

As of January 28, 2012, the Company operated 480 Dick's Sporting Goods stores in 43 states, with approximately 26.3 million square feet and 81 Golf Galaxy stores in 30 states, with approximately 1.3 million square feet.

Balance Sheet

The Company ended fiscal 2011 with $734 million in cash and cash equivalents as compared to $546 million at the end of fiscal 2010, and did not have any outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility in either period.  On December 5, 2011, the Company entered into a new five-year credit agreement, which provides for a $500 million revolving credit facility and the ability to increase the aggregate revolving loan commitment by $250 million, subject to certain conditions.

Inventory per square foot was 6.2% higher at the end of fiscal 2011 as compared to the end of fiscal 2010.  A little more than half of the increase was due to the lower than anticipated sales of cold-weather related product. The remaining increase was in preparation for anticipated spring business and eCommerce growth. Clearance inventory per square foot was down 2.1% at the end of fiscal 2011 as compared to the end of fiscal 2010.

Year-to-Date Results

The Company reported consolidated non-GAAP net income for the 52 weeks ended January 28, 2012 of $253.9 million, or $2.02 per diluted share.  Non-GAAP earnings exclude a gain on sale of investment and the favorable impact of lower litigation settlement costs.  For the 52 weeks ended January 29, 2011, the Company reported consolidated non-GAAP net income of $198.4 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, which excluded Golf Galaxy store closing costs and litigation settlement costs.

On a GAAP basis, the Company reported consolidated net income for the 52 weeks ended January 28, 2012 of $263.9 million, or $2.10 per diluted share, compared to consolidated net income for the 52 weeks ended January 29, 2011 of $182.1 million, or $1.50 per diluted share. The GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation is included in a table later in the release under the heading "Non-GAAP Net Income and Earnings Per Share Reconciliation."

Net sales for the full year 2011 increased 7.0% to $5.2 billion as compared to the full year 2010 primarily due to the growth of the Company's store network and a 2.0% increase in consolidated same store sales.  

Dividend

On February 13, 2012, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.125 per share on the Company's Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. The dividend is payable in cash on March 30, 2012 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 2, 2012.

Share Repurchase Program

On January 11, 2012, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a 12-month share repurchase program of up to $200 million of the Company's common stock. The Company initiated the program to offset the dilutive effect of the issuance of shares expected in connection with the expiration in 2013 of a substantial number of stock options issued following the Company's 2002 initial public offering, which are anticipated to be exercised in 2012.  The Company will finance the repurchase from cash on hand.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting the Company's financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company provides information regarding net income and earnings per diluted share adjusted for gain on sale of investment and litigation settlement costs; earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation, adjusted to exclude certain significant gains and losses ("Adjusted EBITDA"); a reconciliation from the Company's gross capital expenditures, net of tenant allowances; and calculations of consolidated and Dick's Sporting Goods new store productivity.  These measures are considered non-GAAP and are not preferable to GAAP financial information; however, the Company believes this information provides additional measures of performance that the Company's management, analysts and investors can use to compare core, operating results between reporting periods. These non-GAAP measures are provided below and on the Company's website at http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/investors.

During the second quarter of 2011, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $13.9 million relating to the sale of available-for-sale securities.  During the third quarter of 2011, the Company funded claims submitted by class members of a wage and hour class action lawsuit as part of a court approved settlement.  The settlement funding was $2.1 million lower than the previous estimate of $10.8 million, recognized in the fourth quarter of 2010.  The provision for income taxes for the litigation settlement was calculated at 40%, which approximates the Company's blended tax rate.



Adjusted EBITDA






Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measure of performance or liquidity.  Adjusted EBITDA, as the Company has calculated it, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.  Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used by the Company that provides a measurement of profitability that eliminates the effect of changes resulting from financing decisions, tax regulations, and capital investments.
