Levi & Korsinsky is investigating DICK'S Sporting Goods after the Company raised its Foot Locker outlook when reporting the first quarter, then reduced its operating income outlook on August 25, 2026 -- the same day it disclosed a 3.6% decline in Foot Locker pro forma comparable sales.
NEW YORK, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DICK'S Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS) shareholders took losses on August 25, 2026, after the Company reported second-quarter revenue of approximately $5.59 billion and adjusted EPS of $3.53 -- both figures shy of consensus which had called for roughly $5.64 billion and $3.78 -- and cut its operating income outlook for both the DICK'S and Foot Locker businesses.

On May 27, 2026, in its first quarter press release, DICK'S notably raised full year guidance for the Foot Locker business. As reiterated on the same-day earnings call by Chief Financial Officer Navdeep Gupta, DICKS's projected the Foot Locker business to achieve "full year pro forma comp sales growth in the range of 1.5% to 3% compared to our prior growth expectation of 1% to 3%."
The August 25, 2026 second quarter release disclosed a 3.6% decline in Foot Locker pro forma comparable sales, increasing promotional conditions, fewer and weaker product launches, and reduced Foot Locker's outlook "to a range of negative 2.0% to 0.0%." The investigation concerns whether DKS disclosures to investors were adequate.
