1. Basis of Presentation
Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a specialty retailer selling sporting goods equipment, apparel and footwear through its 474 Dick’s stores and 81 Golf Galaxy stores as of October 29, 2011, the majority of which are located throughout the eastern half of the United States. Additionally, the Company maintains e-commerce operations for both Dick’s and Golf Galaxy. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to “year” is to our fiscal year and when used in this Form 10-Q and unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Dick’s”, “we”, “us”, “the Company” and “our” refer to Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with the requirements for Form 10-Q and do not include all the disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information. This unaudited interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 29, 2011 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2011. Operating results for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 29, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January 28, 2012 or any other period.
Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Goodwill Impairment
In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” This update amended the procedures surrounding goodwill impairment testing to permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other.” ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance will not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Comprehensive Income
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” This update amended the presentation options in ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income,” to provide an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 with retrospective application required. The adoption of this guidance will not have a significant impact on the presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurement
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” This update amended explanations of how to measure fair value to result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 with prospective application required. The adoption of this guidance will not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
