It posted adjusted earnings per share of $3.37 for the quarter ended May 3, 2025, surpassing analyst estimates of $3.20. Revenue climbed 5.2% year-over-year to a record $3.17 billion, exceeding the consensus forecast of $3.12 billion.
Comparable store sales increased 4.5% year-over-year, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of over 4% growth. It has been helped by growing interest in and demand from consumers for sport, health and wellness.
It has also been boosted by its House of Sport premium stores brand.
DKS stock was up over 5% in pre-market trading. However, it is down 23% in the year to date mostly down to investor concerns over its proposed $2.4 billion takeover of rival Foot Locker.
Although the deal will allow DKS to enter international markets it is buying a business that’s been in poor condition for a number of years. Indeed, Foot Locker has struggled since the Covid-19 pandemic shutdown its stores or forced them to operate at reduced capacity.

DKS also cheered investors by reaffirming its 2025 outlook despite general consumer uncertainty. It is expecting earnings per share to be between $13.80 and $14.40 in fiscal 2025 — in line with the $14.29 expectations.
