Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Operations – Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, referred to as "the Company", "we", "us" and "our" unless specified otherwise) is a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high-quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories through a blend of dedicated associates, in-store services and unique specialty shop-in-shops. The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream and other specialty concept stores as well as eCommerce websites at www.DICKS.com, www.golfgalaxy.com, www.fieldandstreamshop.com and www.caliastudio.com. Fiscal Year – The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January. Fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013 ended on January 30, 2016, January 31, 2015 and February 1, 2014, respectively. Principles of Consolidation – The Consolidated Financial Statements include Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Cash equivalents are considered Level 1 investments and totaled $35.2 million and $89.0 million at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015, respectively. Cash Management – The Company's cash management system provides for the reimbursement of all major bank disbursement accounts on a daily basis. Accounts payable at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015 include $135.1 million and $105.9 million, respectively, of checks drawn in excess of cash balances not yet presented for payment. Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable consist principally of amounts receivable from vendors and landlords. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $2.7 million as of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015. Inventories – Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost or market. Inventory costs consist of the direct cost of merchandise including freight. Inventories are net of shrinkage, obsolescence, other valuation accounts and vendor allowances totaling $113.5 million and $100.2 million at January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015, respectively. Property and Equipment – Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include capitalized leases. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings |  | 40 years
Leasehold improvements |  | 10-25 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment |  | 3-7 years
For leasehold improvements and property and equipment under capital lease agreements, depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Leasehold improvements made significantly after the initial lease term are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. Depreciation expense was $178.9 million, $159.1 million and $151.5 million for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Renewals and betterments are capitalized and repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Closed Store Reserves – The Company evaluates its long-lived assets to assess whether the carrying values have been impaired whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus eventual net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. When an impairment loss is recognized, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value as determined based on quoted market prices or through the use of other valuation techniques. The Company recognizes a liability for costs associated with closed or relocated premises when the Company ceases to use the location. The calculation of accrued lease termination and other costs primarily includes future minimum lease payments, maintenance costs and taxes from the date of closure or relocation to the end of the remaining lease term, net of contractual or estimated sublease income. The liability is discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of interest. The assumptions used in the calculation of the accrued lease termination and other costs are evaluated on a quarterly basis. The current portion of accrued store closing and relocation reserves is included within accrued expenses and the long-term portion is included within long-term deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The related expense is recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Goodwill – Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired entities. The Company assesses the carrying value of goodwill annually or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step impairment test. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company must perform the second step in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied estimated fair value, an impairment charge to selling, general and administrative expenses is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the implied estimated fair value. A reporting unit is the operating segment, or a business unit one level below that operating segment, for which discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management. Intangible Assets – Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and acquired trade names with indefinite lives, which are tested for impairment annually or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. The Company's finite-lived intangible assets consist primarily of favorable lease assets and other acquisition related assets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful economic lives and are reviewed for impairment when factors indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The Company recognizes an impairment charge when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than the carrying value. Self-Insurance – The Company is self-insured for certain losses related to health, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, although we maintain stop-loss coverage with third party insurers to limit our liability exposure. Liabilities associated with these losses are estimated in part by considering historical claims experience, industry factors, severity factors and other actuarial assumptions. Pre-opening Expenses – Pre-opening expenses, which consist primarily of rent, marketing, payroll and recruiting costs, are expensed as incurred. Rent is recognized within pre-opening expense from the date of building turnover to the Company through the date of store opening. Earnings Per Common Share – Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, restricted stock and warrants. Stock-Based Compensation – The Company has the ability to grant restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units and stock options to purchase common stock under the Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan. The Company records stock-based compensation expenses based on the fair value of stock awards at the grant date and recognizes the expense over the related service period. Income Taxes – The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes and provides deferred income taxes for temporary differences between the amounts reported for assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and for income tax reporting purposes, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the relevant taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon ultimate settlement. Interest and penalties related to income tax matters are recognized in income tax expense. Revenue Recognition – Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, net of sales tax. Revenue from eCommerce sales is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. Service-related revenue is recognized as the services are performed. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded. Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the "cards") is deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards. These cards have no expiration date. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income within selling, general and administrative expenses at the point at which redemption becomes remote. The Company performs an evaluation of the aging of the unredeemed cards, based on the elapsed time from the date of original issuance, to determine when redemption becomes remote. Cost of Goods Sold – Cost of goods sold includes the cost of merchandise, vendor allowances, inventory shrinkage, freight, distribution, shipping and store occupancy costs. The Company defines merchandise margin as net sales less the cost of merchandise sold. The cost of merchandise includes product costs paid to the vendor, including items such as purchase discounts and vendor chargebacks, as well as inventory write-downs for the lower of cost or market. Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, general maintenance, utilities, depreciation, fixture lease expenses and certain insurance expenses. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses – Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company's corporate headquarters. Advertising Costs – Production costs of advertising and the costs to run the advertisements are expensed the first time the advertisement takes place. Advertising expense, net of cooperative advertising, was $276.3 million, $248.7 million and $223.9 million for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Vendor Allowances – Vendor allowances include allowances, rebates and cooperative advertising funds received from vendors. These funds are determined for each fiscal year and the majority are based on various quantitative contract terms. Amounts expected to be received from vendors relating to the purchase of merchandise inventories are recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Amounts that represent a reimbursement of costs incurred, such as advertising, are recorded as a reduction to the related expense in the period that the related expense is incurred. The Company records an estimate of earned allowances based on the latest projected purchase volumes and advertising forecasts. Segment Information – The Company is a specialty omni-channel retailer that offers a broad range of products in its specialty retail stores primarily in the eastern United States. Given the economic characteristics of the store formats, the similar nature of the products sold, the type of customer and method of distribution, the Company's operating segments are aggregated within one reportable segment. The following table sets forth the approximate amount of net sales attributable to hardlines, apparel and footwear for the periods presented (in millions):
| Fiscal Year
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Hardlines | $ | 3,264 |  |  | $ | 2,992 |  |  | $ | 2,763 |
Apparel | 2,553 |  |  | 2,461 |  |  | 2,184 |
Footwear | 1,403 |  |  | 1,316 |  |  | 1,222 |
Other | 51 |  |  | 45 |  |  | 44 |
Total net sales | $ | 7,271 |  |  | $ | 6,814 |  |  | $ | 6,213 |
Construction Allowances – All of the Company's store locations are leased. The Company may receive reimbursement from a landlord for some of the cost of the structure, subject to satisfactory fulfillment of applicable lease provisions. These reimbursements may be referred to as tenant allowances, construction allowances or landlord reimbursements ("construction allowances"). The Company's accounting for construction allowances differs if the Company is deemed to be the owner of the asset during the construction period. Some of the Company's leases have a cap on the construction allowance, which places the Company at risk for cost overruns and causes the Company to be deemed the owner during the construction period. In cases where the Company is deemed to be the owner during the construction period, a sale and leaseback of the asset occurs when construction of the asset is complete and the lease term begins, if relevant sale-leaseback accounting criteria are met. Any gain or loss from the transaction is included within deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and deferred and amortized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company reports the amount of cash received for the construction allowance as construction allowance receipts within the financing activities section of its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when such allowances are received prior to completion of the sale-leaseback transaction. The Company reports the amount of cash received from construction allowances as proceeds from sale leaseback transactions within the investing activities section of its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when such amounts are received after the sale-leaseback accounting criteria have been achieved. In instances where the Company is not deemed to be the owner during the construction period, reimbursement from a landlord for tenant improvements is classified as an incentive and included within deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The deferred rent credit is amortized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Landlord reimbursements from these transactions are included in cash flows from operating activities as a change in deferred construction allowances. Leases – Escalating rent payments, rent abatements and rent holidays are considered in the calculation of minimum lease payments in the Company's capital lease tests and in determining straight-line rent expense for operating leases. The Company records any difference between the straight-line rent amount and amounts payable under the lease as part of deferred rent within long-term deferred revenue and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contingent payments based upon sales and future increases determined by inflation related indices cannot be estimated at the inception of the lease and accordingly, are charged to operations as incurred. The Company records contingent rent within accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement Deferred Taxes In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-17, "Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes." This update requires an entity to classify deferred tax liabilities and assets as noncurrent within a classified statement of financial position. ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016. This update may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of the interim or annual reporting period. The Company has elected to early adopt ASU 2015-17 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, with retrospective application. Accordingly, deferred tax assets in the amount of $51.6 million, which were previously classified as current assets at January 31, 2015, and deferred tax liabilities in the amount of $44.5 million, which were previously classified as long-term liabilities at January 31, 2015, were reclassified to non-current deferred income tax assets on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets to conform to current year presentation. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." This update requires an entity to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about the entity's leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early application permitted. A modified retrospective approach is required. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." This update requires an entity that determines the cost of inventory by methods other than last-in, first-out (LIFO) and the retail inventory method (RIM) to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2016. Prospective application is required. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of the interim or annual reporting period. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This update requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, the update (1) specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer and (2) expands disclosure requirements related to revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The update permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB subsequently issued ASU 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Deferral of the Effective Date," which approved a one year deferral of ASU 2014-09 for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is permitted as of the original effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2015-14 on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
