PITTSBURGH (BRAIN) — Dick's Sporting Goods fourth-quarter net sales increased 59.9% year-over-year and 28.1% for 2025 as the company said it benefitted from the acquisition of Foot Locker and a strong holiday season.
For the quarter ending Jan. 31, quarterly sales were $6.23 million, compared with $3.89 million at the same time last year. For the year, sales were $17.2 million, compared with $13.4 million year-over-year.
"Dick's and Foot Locker are perfectly positioned at the intersection of sport and culture, which is becoming an even stronger part of everyday life," said President and CEO Lauren Hobart. "For 2026, we expect to drive continued comp growth, strategic expansion of our square footage, and strong profitability for the Dick's business. We also look forward to returning the Foot Locker business to both top-line and bottom-line growth in 2026. We have deep conviction in the tremendous opportunity ahead for our entire company."
The Foot Locker acquisition was completed in September.
Fourth-quarter net income decreased from $300 million to $128 million year-over-year, with earnings per share decreasing from $3.62 to $3.45. Full-year net income decreased from $1.165 billion from $849 million. Full-year earnings per share dropped to $9.97 from $14.05.
Dick's had 4.5% full-year 2025 comparable sales growth aided by an increase in average ticket and transactions.
Dick's opened 16 House of Sport locations and 15 Dick's Field House locations in 2025. Plans are to open about 14 additional House of Sport locations and about 22 additional Field House locations this year. The retailer has quietly pulled back from its Public Lands specialty outdoor sports stores initiative. Just one Public Lands store and a website remain open. Public Lands sells specialty bike brands including Giant, Scott, Cannondale and Rocky Mountain.
