The earnings call highlighted some strategic inventory management and expense control, but was overshadowed by significant declines in net sales, same-store sales, and increased net losses. Weather challenges and decreased merchandise margins also contributed to a negative outlook.

Company Guidance

In the Big 5 Sporting Goods first quarter 2025 earnings call, the company reported net sales of $175.6 million, a decrease from $193.4 million in the previous year, with same-store sales declining by 7.8%. Merchandise margins fell by 78 basis points, and the company posted a net loss of $17.3 million or $0.78 per basic share, compared to a net loss of $8.3 million or $0.38 per basic share in the prior year. Inventory levels rose by 6.5% year-over-year, reflecting earlier receipt of seasonal merchandise. For the second quarter, the company anticipates same-store sales to decline in the low to mid-single-digit range, with a projected net loss per basic share between $0.75 and $0.90, amidst ongoing macroeconomic headwinds and calendar shifts impacting sales.

Inventory Strategy

Inventory levels increased by 6.5% year-over-year, reflecting earlier receipts of seasonal merchandise, which helped mitigate near-term impact from increased tariff costs.

Expense Management

Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $0.6 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to reduced labor costs and lower credit card fees.
