<FONT size="2">We are a holding company incorporated in Delaware
on October&nbsp;31, 1997. We conduct our business through
Big&nbsp;5 Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated in
Delaware on October&nbsp;27, 1997.
</FONT>

<P align="center">
<B><FONT size="2">Big 5 Sporting Goods Corporation</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We are the leading sporting goods retailer in the
western United States, operating 282&nbsp;stores in
10&nbsp;states under the &#147;Big 5 Sporting Goods&#148; name
at September&nbsp;28, 2003. We provide a full-line product
offering of over 25,000 stock keeping units in a traditional
sporting goods store format that averages 11,000 square feet. We
believe that over the past 48&nbsp;years we have developed a
reputation with the competitive and recreational sporting goods
customer as a convenient neighborhood sporting goods retailer
that consistently delivers value on quality merchandise. We
reinforce our value reputation through weekly print advertising
in major and local newspapers and mailers designed to generate
customer traffic, drive net sales and build brand awareness.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Founded in 1955, our accumulated management
experience and expertise in sporting goods merchandising,
advertising, operations and store development have enabled us to
generate consistent, profitable growth. As of September&nbsp;28,
2003, we have realized 31&nbsp;consecutive quarterly increases
in same store sales over comparable prior periods. All but one
of our stores has generated positive store-level operating
profit in each of the past five fiscal years. From the fiscal
year ended January&nbsp;3, 1999 through the fiscal year ended
December&nbsp;29, 2002, our net sales and operating income have
increased at compounded annual growth rates of 8.0% and 14.9%,
respectively. We believe our success can be attributed to one of
the most experienced management teams in the sporting goods
industry, a value-based and execution-driven operating
philosophy, a controlled growth strategy and a proven business
model.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Competitive Strengths</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We believe we have been successful due to the
following competitive strengths:

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Leading Position in Established
Markets.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> We are the market leader in
the western United States, operating more than three times as
many stores in both California and Oregon, and more than twice
as many stores in both Washington and Nevada, as any of our
full-line sporting goods competitors.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Proven Store Format.</FONT></I><FONT size="2">
Our typical store averages 11,000&nbsp;square feet, is
conveniently located near our target customers in either a
free-standing location or a multi-store shopping center and is
designed to minimize operating and maintenance costs. Our format
enables us to have substantial flexibility regarding new store
locations. We have successfully operated stores in major
metropolitan areas and in areas with as few as
60,000&nbsp;people. Our format differentiates us from
superstores that typically average over 35,000&nbsp;square feet,
require larger target markets, are more expensive to operate and
require higher net sales per store for profitability. Our format
has also resulted in productivity that we believe is among the

<I><FONT size="2">Superior Merchandising
Capabilities.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> We have developed
considerable expertise in identifying, stocking and selling a
broad assortment of full-line sporting goods at competitive
prices. Our buyers average 18&nbsp;years of experience with us
and work closely with senior management to determine product
selection, promotion and pricing. In addition to our
buyers&#146; experience, we utilize an integrated merchandising,
distribution, point-of-sale and financial information system to
continuously improve our merchandise mix, pricing strategy,
advertising effectiveness and inventory levels.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Extensive Advertising Programs and
Expertise.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> Through years of targeted
advertising, we have solidified our reputation for offering
quality products at attractive prices. We have advertised almost
exclusively through weekly print advertisements since 1955. We
typically utilize four-page color advertisements to highlight
promotions across our merchandise categories. We believe our
print advertising, which includes the weekly distribution of
over 13&nbsp;million newspaper inserts and mailers, consistently
reaches more households in our established markets than that of
our full-line sporting goods competitors. The consistency and
reach of our print advertising programs drive sales and create
high customer awareness of the name Big 5 Sporting Goods.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Significant Management
Experience.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> We believe the experience,
commitment and tenure of our professional staff provide a
substantial competitive advantage. We were co-founded in 1955 by
Robert W. Miller, currently our Chairman Emeritus, and are
managed today by his son, Steven G. Miller, our Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer, who has worked at our
company for 34&nbsp;years. Our senior-level managers have worked
at our company for an average of 26&nbsp;years.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Consistent Growth and Strong Cash
Flow.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> We have been able to generate
consistent growth, expand margins and increase our profitability
because of our extensive experience, our proven strategy and
steady execution of our business model. Our consistent net sales
growth combined with improved purchasing, inventory management
and economies of scale have enabled us to increase our gross
margin from 32.8% in fiscal 1998 to 35.9% in the twelve months
ended September&nbsp;28, 2003, and increase our operating
margins from 6.2% in fiscal 1998 to 8.1% for the twelve months
ended September&nbsp;28, 2003. As of September&nbsp;28, 2003, we
have realized 31 consecutive quarterly increases in same store
sales over comparable prior periods.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Strong Returns on New Store
Openings.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> Throughout our history, we
have sought to expand with the addition of new stores through a
disciplined strategy of controlled growth. We have typically
utilized cash generated by our operations to invest in new
stores. New store openings represent attractive investment
opportunities due to the relatively low investment required and
the relatively short time in which our new stores become
profitable. Based on our operating experience, a new store
typically achieves store-level cash-on-cash returns of
approximately 40% in its first full fiscal year of operation.

<I><FONT size="2">Senior Note
Redemption.</FONT></I><FONT size="2"> On November&nbsp;5, 2003,
we announced that we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Big 5
Corp., will redeem $35&nbsp;million principal amount of our
10.875% senior notes due 2007, using borrowings available under
our revolving credit facility. At September&nbsp;28, 2003, loans
under the credit facility bore interest at a rate of LIBOR
(1.12% at September 28, 2003) plus 1.50% or the JPMorgan Chase
Bank prime lending rate (4.00% at September&nbsp;28, 2003).
Following the redemption, which is scheduled to be completed in
early December 2003, the outstanding balance of our 10.875%
senior notes will be reduced to $48.1&nbsp;million of face
amount from an original face amount of $131&nbsp;million when
the notes were issued in November 1997. The redemption price is
103.65% of face value plus accrued but unpaid interest, as
provided by the terms of the indenture governing the 10.875%
senior notes. We expect that, in connection with this
redemption, we will recognize an after-tax charge in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2003 of approximately $1.2&nbsp;million, or
$0.05 per diluted share, relating to the premium and the
write-off of unamortized financing fees and original issue
discount.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<I><FONT size="2">Earnings Guidance.</FONT></I><FONT size="2">
We expect to realize same store sales growth in the low to mid
single-digit range for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003,
resulting in earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.39 to
$0.43. For the fiscal year ending December&nbsp;28, 2003, we
currently expect to realize same store sales growth for the
fiscal year in the low single-digit range, resulting in earnings
per diluted share of $1.12 to $1.16. The quarterly estimate of
earnings per diluted share includes a $0.05 per diluted share
charge that we expect to incur in connection with our upcoming
redemption of $35.0&nbsp;million face amount of our 10.875%
senior notes due 2007. The full-year estimate of earnings per
diluted share includes the $0.04 per diluted share charge
incurred with the redemption of $20.0&nbsp;million face amount
of our senior notes in the first quarter of fiscal 2003 and the
expected $0.05 per diluted share charge in connection with the
scheduled fourth quarter fiscal 2003 redemption.

    initial public offering of 8.1&nbsp;million shares of common
    stock, of which 1.6&nbsp;million shares were sold by selling
    stockholders. In the third quarter of 2002, our underwriters
    exercised their right to purchase an additional 1.2&nbsp;million
    shares through their over-allotment option, of which
    0.5&nbsp;million shares were sold by selling stockholders. With
    net proceeds of $76.1&nbsp;million from the offering and total
    net proceeds of $84.0&nbsp;million after exercise of the
    underwriters&#146; over-allotment option, and together with
    borrowings under our credit facility, we redeemed all of our
    outstanding senior discount notes and preferred stock, paid
    bonuses to executive officers and directors which were funded by
    a reduction in the redemption price otherwise applicable to our
    preferred stock and repurchased 0.5&nbsp;million shares of our
    common stock from non-executive employees. All uses of proceeds,
    other than the payment of a portion of the bonuses related to
    the initial public offering and certain initial public offering
    costs, occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

    <FONT size="2">Our accompanying statements of operations report
    net income and earnings per diluted share in accordance with
    GAAP. In addition, we internally use pro forma reporting to
    evaluate our operating performance without regard to certain
    non-recurring financial effects of the initial public offering
    in 2002, including the exercise of the underwriters&#146;
    over-allotment option, or certain financial effects of the 2003
    partial senior note redemption. We believe this presentation
    will provide investors with additional insight into our
    operating results. The pro forma figures assume that the initial
    public offering took place at the beginning of 2002 and exclude
    the effects of certain initial public offering related expenses
    and debt redemption premiums. The following table contains a
    reconciliation of the pro forma adjustments to GAAP for fiscal
    year 2002 and the 39&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;29, 2002
    and September&nbsp;28, 2003. There were no pro forma adjustments
    related to the initial public offering or debt redemption for
    the 13&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;28, 2003.

<FONT size="2">We have never declared or paid any dividends on
our common stock. We anticipate that we will retain all of our
earnings in the foreseeable future to finance the expansion of
our business and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any
cash dividends on shares of our common stock in the foreseeable
future. Any payment of cash dividends on our common stock will
be dependent upon the ability of Big 5 Corp., our wholly owned
subsidiary, to pay dividends or make cash payments or advances
to us. The agreement governing our credit facility and the
indenture governing our senior notes impose restrictions on Big
5 Corp.&#146;s ability to make these payments. For example, Big
5 Corp.&#146;s ability to pay dividends or make other
distributions to us, and thus our ability to pay cash dividends
on our common stock, will depend upon, among other things, its
level of indebtedness at the time of the proposed dividend or
distribution, whether it is in default under its financing
agreements and the amount of dividends or distributions made in
the past. Our future dividend policy will also depend on the
requirements of any future financing agreements to which we may
be a party and other factors considered relevant by our board of
directors, including the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, which provides that dividends are only payable out of
surplus or current net profits.

generated by these assets. If such assets are considered to be
impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which
the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the

in the 13&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;28, 2003 from
$170.9&nbsp;million in the same period last year. This growth
reflected an increase of $5.6&nbsp;million in same store sales
and an increase of $7.1&nbsp;million in new store sales, which
reflected the opening of 21&nbsp;new stores since June&nbsp;30,
2002. The remaining variance was attributable to net sales from
closed stores. Same store sales increased 3.3% in the
13&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;28, 2003 versus the same
period last year, representing the thirty-first consecutive
quarterly increase in same store sales over comparable prior
periods. This 3.3% increase in same store sales was attributable
to higher sales in each of our three major product categories of
footwear, hard goods and apparel, with the apparel category
providing the strongest performance. Store count at
September&nbsp;28, 2003 was 282 versus 265 at September&nbsp;29,
2002. We opened seven new stores in the 13&nbsp;weeks ended
September&nbsp;28, 2003 and we opened four new stores in the
13&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;29, 2002. We expect to open
eleven new stores during the remainder of fiscal 2003.
Subsequent to September&nbsp;28, 2003, there were a significant
number of fires throughout the Southern California region. While
we initially saw a slight decrease in our sales as a result of
the fires, we do not believe these fires will have a significant
impact on our fourth quarter or full fiscal year sales.

profit margin was 35.6% in the 13&nbsp;weeks ended

measured as a percentage of sales resulting primarily from
increased trucking-related costs.

administrative expenses increased by $14.9&nbsp;million, or
9.3%, to $174.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002 from
$160.0&nbsp;million in fiscal 2001. The increase was primarily
due to a $9.1&nbsp;million increase in store-related expenses
associated with supporting increased sales, new store openings
and increased employee health benefit costs and increased
expenses due to electric utility rate increases in our
California markets. Other factors impacting the increase
included an increase of $1.2&nbsp;million in advertising costs
that resulted primarily from advertising expenditures for the
15&nbsp;new stores opened in fiscal 2002 and the 15 new stores
opened late in fiscal 2001 and higher insurance-related costs of
$0.6&nbsp;million primarily related to increased directors&#146;
and officers&#146; insurance premiums after our initial public
offering. The remaining increase in selling and administrative
expenses resulted primarily from expenses incurred in connection
with our initial public offering. These expenses include
termination costs associated with our management services
agreement with Leonard Green&nbsp;&#38; Associates, L.P., an
affiliate of Leonard Green&nbsp;&#38; Partners, L.P., which were
$0.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2002, as well as bonuses relating to
our initial public offering paid to our executive officers and
directors in fiscal 2002. The bonuses for that period totaled
$2.0&nbsp;million and were funded through a reduction of the
redemption price that would otherwise have been applicable to
redemption of our outstanding preferred stock. When measured as
a percentage of net sales and adjusting on a pro forma basis to
exclude expenses related to our initial public offering of
common stock, selling and administrative expenses were 25.7% for
both fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001. GAAP selling and
administrative expenses when measured as a percentage of net
sales were 26.2% for fiscal 2002 versus 25.7% for fiscal 2001
reflecting the impact as a percentage of sales of the expenses
incurred in connection with our initial public offering
described above. (See note&nbsp;2 to &#147;Summary Consolidated

growth reflected an increase of $27.1&nbsp;million in same store
sales and an increase of $29.0&nbsp;million in new store sales,
which reflected the opening of 15&nbsp;new stores during each of
fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000. The remaining variance was
attributable to net sales from closed stores. Same store sales
increased 4.9% for fiscal 2001 versus fiscal 2000. The increase
in same store sales was primarily attributable to higher sales
in each of our three major product categories of footwear, hard
goods and apparel. Sales during the last half of fiscal 2000
benefited significantly from the sale of scooters, part of our
hard goods product category. We did not realize comparable
scooter sales in fiscal 2001 and do not expect to do so in the
future. Excluding scooter sales, net sales increased 10.2% and
same store sales increased 6.2% for fiscal 2001. Store count at
the end of fiscal 2001 was 260 versus 249 at the end of fiscal
2000 as we opened 15 new stores, of which four were replacement
stores. We achieved positive same store sales of 3.9% during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, representing the twenty-fourth
consecutive quarter of positive quarterly same store sales
results. Excluding scooter sales, same store sales increased
7.3% for the fourth quarter in fiscal 2001.

gross profit margins primarily due to improved selling margins
in our footwear product category as well as increased same store

due to a $10.1&nbsp;million increase in store personnel and
other store-related expenses associated with supporting
increased sales, new store openings, an increase in the minimum
wage, regional hiring pressures during much of the year and
increased expenses related to electric utility rate increases
primarily in our California markets. Other factors impacting the
increase included an increase of $2.5&nbsp;million in
advertising costs that resulted primarily from increased

2006. We may terminate the credit facility by giving at least

<FONT size="2">We recently announced that we will redeem
$35&nbsp;million principal amount of our 10.875% senior notes
due 2007, using borrowings available under our credit facility.
Our ability to borrow under our credit facility to fund this
redemption is conditioned upon our having $25&nbsp;million of
borrowing availability and unrestricted cash after giving effect
to the redemption. We do not believe we will have difficulty
satisfying this condition. Following the redemption, which is
scheduled to be completed in early December 2003, the
outstanding balance of our 10.875% senior notes will be reduced
to $48.1&nbsp;million from an original face amount of
$131&nbsp;million when the notes were first issued in November

our senior notes contain various financial and other covenants,
including covenants that require us to maintain various
financial ratios, restrict our ability to incur indebtedness or
to create various liens and restrict the amount of capital
expenditures that we may incur. Our credit facility and the
indenture governing our senior notes also restrict our ability
to engage in mergers or acquisitions, sell assets or pay

from operations to meet our obligations and commitments, we will
be required to refinance or restructure our indebtedness or

forego expansion opportunities. We might not be able to effect
these alternative strategies on satisfactory terms, if at all.

<FONT size="2">We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net
sales and operating results. In fiscal 2002, we generated 26.5%
of our net sales and 35.2% of our operating income in the fourth
fiscal quarter, which includes the holiday selling season as
well as the peak winter sports selling season. As a result, we
incur significant additional expenses in the fourth fiscal
quarter due to higher purchase volumes and increased staffing.
If we miscalculate the demand for our products generally or for
our product mix during the fourth fiscal quarter, our net sales
could decline, resulting in excess inventory, which could harm
our financial performance. Because a substantial portion of our
operating income is derived from our fourth fiscal quarter net
sales, a shortfall in expected fourth fiscal quarter net sales
could cause our annual operating results to suffer significantly.

offering of over 25,000&nbsp;stock keeping units in a

<FONT size="2">We believe that over the past 48&nbsp;years we
have developed a reputation with the competitive and
recreational sporting goods customer as a convenient
neighborhood sporting goods retailer that consistently delivers
value on quality merchandise. Our stores carry a wide range of
products at competitive prices from well-known brand name
manufacturers, including Nike, Reebok, adidas, New Balance,
Wilson, Spalding and Columbia. We also offer brand name
merchandise produced exclusively for us, private label
merchandise and specials on quality items we purchased through
opportunistic buys of vendor over-stock and close-out

designed to generate customer traffic, drive net sales and build

with the establishment of five retail locations in California.
We sold World War II surplus items until 1963, when we began
focusing exclusively on sporting goods and changed our trade
name to &#147;Big&nbsp;5 Sporting Goods.&#148; In 1971, we were
acquired by Thrifty Corporation, which was subsequently
purchased by Pacific Enterprises. In 1992, management bought our
company in conjunction with Green Equity Investors, L.P., an
affiliate of Leonard Green&nbsp;&#38; Partners, L.P. In 1997,
Robert&nbsp;W. Miller, Steven&nbsp;G. Miller and Green Equity
Investors, L.P. recapitalized our company so that the majority
of our common stock would be owned by our management and
employees.

<FONT size="2">In June 2002, we completed an initial public
offering (IPO)&nbsp;of 8.1&nbsp;million shares of common stock,
of which 1.6&nbsp;million shares were sold by selling
stockholders. In July 2002, our underwriters exercised their
right to purchase an additional 1.2&nbsp;million shares through
their over-allotment option, of which 0.5&nbsp;million shares
were sold by the selling stockholders. With net proceeds of
approximately $76.1&nbsp;million from the IPO and total net
proceeds of $84.0&nbsp;million after exercise of the
underwriters&#146; over-allotment option, and together with
borrowings under our credit facility, we redeemed all of our
outstanding senior discount notes and preferred stock, paid
bonuses to executive officers and directors which were funded by
a reduction in the redemption price otherwise applicable to our
preferred stock and repurchased 0.5&nbsp;million shares of our
common stock from non-executive employees.

<FONT size="2">Our accumulated management experience and
expertise in sporting goods merchandising, advertising,
operations and store development have enabled us to generate
consistent, profitable growth. As of September&nbsp;28, 2003, we
have realized 31&nbsp;consecutive quarterly increases in same
store sales over comparable prior periods. All but one of our
stores has generated positive store-level operating profit in
each of the past five fiscal years. From the fiscal year ended
January&nbsp;3, 1999 through the fiscal year ended
December&nbsp;29, 2002, our net sales and operating income have
increased at compounded annual growth rates of 8.0% and 14.9%,
respectively. We believe our success can be attributed to one of
the most experienced management teams in the sporting goods
industry, a value-based and execution-driven operating
philosophy, a controlled growth strategy and a proven business
model.

<FONT size="2">Throughout our operating history, we have sought
to expand our business with the addition of new stores through a
disciplined strategy of controlled growth. Our expansion within
and beyond California has been systematic and designed to
capitalize on our name recognition, economical store format and
economies of scale related to distribution and advertising. Over
the past five fiscal years, we have opened 72 stores, an average
of 14 new stores annually, of which 72% were outside of
California. The following table illustrates the results of our
expansion program during the periods indicated:

<FONT size="2">Our format enables us to have substantial
flexibility regarding new store locations. We have successfully
operated stores in major metropolitan areas and in areas with as
few as 60,000 people. Our format differentiates us from
superstores that typically average over 35,000 square feet
compared to our average of 11,000 square feet per store, require
larger target markets, are more expensive to operate and require
higher net sales per store for profitability.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">New store openings represent attractive
investment opportunities due to the relatively low investment
required and the relatively short time in which our stores
become profitable. Our store format requires investments of
approximately $0.4&nbsp;million in fixtures and equipment and
approximately $0.4&nbsp;million in net working capital with
limited pre-opening and real estate expenses related to leased
locations that are built to our specifications. We seek to
maximize new store performance by staffing new store management
with experienced personnel from our existing stores. Based on
our operating experience, a new store typically achieves
store-level return on investment of approximately 40% in its
first full fiscal year of operation.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our in-house store development personnel, who
have opened an average of 13 stores during each of the past 10
fiscal years, analyze new store locations with the assistance of
real estate firms that specialize in retail properties. We have
identified numerous expansion opportunities to further penetrate
our established markets, develop recently entered markets and
expand into new, contiguous markets with

<FONT size="2">We target the competitive and recreational
sporting goods customer with a full-line product offering at a
wide variety of price points. We offer over 25,000 stock keeping
units in a product mix that includes athletic shoes, apparel and
accessories, as well as a broad selection of outdoor and
athletic equipment for team sports, fitness, camping, hunting,
fishing, tennis, golf, snowboarding and in-line skating. As a
key element of our long history of success, we offer consistent
value to consumers by providing a distinctive merchandise mix
that includes a combination of well-known brand name
merchandise, merchandise produced exclusively for us under a
manufacturer&#146;s brand name, private label merchandise and
specials on quality items we purchased through opportunistic
buys of vendor over-stock and close-out merchandise.

<FONT size="2">We believe we enjoy significant advantages in
making opportunistic buys of vendor over-stock and close-out
merchandise because of our strong vendor relationships and rapid
decision-making process. Although vendor over-stock and
close-out merchandise typically represent only approximately 15%
of our net sales, our weekly advertising highlights these items
together with merchandise produced exclusively for us under a
manufacturer&#146;s brand name in order to reinforce our
reputation as a retailer that offers attractive values to our
customers.

goods, which are durable items such as fishing rods and golf
clubs, and soft goods, which are non-durable items such as
shirts and shoes, as a percentage of net sales:

<FONT size="2">We also offer a variety of private label
merchandise to complement our branded product offerings. Our
private label items include shoes, apparel, golf equipment,
binoculars, camping equipment and fishing supplies. Private
label merchandise is sold under the labels Fives, Court Casuals,
Sport Essentials, Rugged Exposure, Golden Bear, Pacifica, South

<FONT size="2">Through our 48&nbsp;years of experience across
different demographic, economic and competitive markets, we have
refined our merchandising strategy to increase net sales by
offering a selection of products that meets customer demands
while effectively managing inventory levels. In terms of
category selection, we believe our merchandise offering compares
favorably to our competitors, including the superstores. Our
edited selection of products enables customers to comparison
shop without being overwhelmed by a large number of different
products in any one category. We further tailor our merchandise
selection on a store-by-store basis in order to satisfy each
region&#146;s specific needs and seasonal buying habits.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our 13&nbsp;buyers, who average 18&nbsp;years of
experience with us, work closely with senior management to
determine the product selection, promotion and pricing of our
merchandise mix. Management utilizes an integrated
merchandising, distribution, point-of-sale and financial
information system to continuously refine our merchandise mix,
pricing strategy, advertising effectiveness and inventory levels
to best serve the needs of our customers.

<B><FONT size="2">Advertising</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Through years of targeted advertising, we have
solidified our reputation for offering quality products at
attractive prices. We have advertised almost exclusively through
weekly print advertisements since 1955. We typically utilize
four-page color advertisements to highlight promotions across
our merchandise categories. We believe our print advertising,
which includes the weekly distribution of over 13&nbsp;million
newspaper inserts or mailers, consistently reaches more
households in our established markets than that of our full-line
sporting goods competitors. The consistency and reach of our
print advertising programs drive sales and create high customer
awareness of the name Big&nbsp;5 Sporting Goods.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We use our professional in-house advertising
staff rather than an outside advertising agency to generate our
advertisements, including design, layout, production and media
management. Our in-house advertising department provides
management the flexibility to react quickly to merchandise
trends and to maximize the effectiveness of our weekly inserts
and mailers. We are able to effectively target different
population zones for our advertising expenditures. We place
inserts in over 150&nbsp;newspapers throughout our markets,
supplemented in many areas by mailer distributions to create
market saturation.

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Management Information Systems</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We have fully integrated management information
systems that track, on a daily basis, individual sales
transactions at each store, inventory receiving and
distribution, merchandise movement and financial information.
The management information system also includes a local area
network that connects all corporate users to electronic mail,
scheduling and the host system. The host system and our stores
are linked by a network that provides satellite communications
for credit card, in-house tender authorization, and daily
polling of sales and merchandise movement at the store level.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our in-store point-of-sale system tracks all
sales by stock keeping unit and allows management to compare the
current performance of each stock keeping unit against
historical performance on a daily basis. The point-of-sale
system uses satellite communications to verify credit cards and
checks and to provide corporate data exchange. We completed the
roll-out of this new point-of-sales system to each of our stores
during the first half of 2001. We believe our management
information systems are efficiently supporting our current
operations and provide a foundation for future growth.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Distribution</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We maintain a 440,000 square foot leased
distribution center in Fontana, California that services all of
our stores. The distribution center is fully integrated with our
management information systems that provide warehousing and
distribution capabilities. The distribution center was
constructed in 1990 and warehouses the majority of the
merchandise carried in our stores. We estimate that 98% of all
store merchandise is received from this distribution center. We
distribute merchandise from the distribution center to our
stores at least once a week, Monday through Saturday, using a
fleet of 30&nbsp;leased and two owned tractors, and
12&nbsp;leased and 74&nbsp;owned trailers, as well as contract
carriers. Our lease for the distribution center has an initial
term that expires in 2006 and includes three additional
five-year renewal options. In August 2002, we leased an
additional 136,000 square foot satellite distribution center to
handle seasonal merchandise and returns. Based on our expected
net sales and store growth, we plan to replace our existing
distribution center during the next 15 to 18&nbsp;months at a
cost of approximately $15&nbsp;million.

    traditional sporting goods chains, including us. These stores
    range in size from 5,000 to 20,000 square feet and are
    frequently located in regional malls and multi-store shopping
    centers. The traditional chains typically carry a varied
    assortment of merchandise and attempt to position themselves as
    convenient neighborhood stores. Sporting goods retailers
    operating stores within this category include Hibbett&#146;s and

    shopping centers or free-standing sites. Sporting goods
    merchandise and apparel represent a small portion of the total
    merchandise in these stores and the selection is often more
    limited than in other sporting goods retailers. Although
    generally price competitive, discount and department stores
    typically have limited customer service in their sporting goods

competitors discussed above by focusing on what we believe are
the primary factors of competition in the sporting goods retail
industry. These factors include experienced and knowledgeable
personnel, customer service, breadth, depth, price and quality
of merchandise offered, advertising, purchasing and pricing
policies, effective sales techniques, direct involvement of
senior officers in monitoring store operations, management
information systems and store location and format.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Employees</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We manage our stores through regional, district
and store-based personnel. Our senior vice president of store
operations has general oversight responsibility for all of our
stores. Field supervision is led by five regional supervisors
who report directly to a vice president of store operations and
who oversee 26 district supervisors. The district supervisors
are each responsible for an average of 11 stores. Each of our
stores has a store manager who is responsible for all aspects of
store operations and who reports directly to a district
supervisor. In addition, each store has at least two assistant
managers, at least one full-time cashier, at least one
management trainee and a complement of full and part-time
associates.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">As of September&nbsp;28, 2003, we had
approximately 6,377 full and part-time employees. The Steel,
Paper House, Chemical Drivers&nbsp;&#38; Helpers, Local
Union&nbsp;578, affiliated with the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, currently represents 464&nbsp;hourly employees in our
distribution center and some of our retail personnel in our
stores. In September 2000, we negotiated two contracts with
Local 578&nbsp;covering these employees. These contracts expire
on August&nbsp;31, 2005. We have not had a strike or work
stoppage in the last 23&nbsp;years. We believe we provide
working conditions and wages that are comparable to those
offered by other retailers in the sporting goods industry and
that our employee relations are good.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Employee Training</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We have developed a comprehensive training
program that is tailored for each store position. All employees
are given an orientation and reference materials that stress
excellence in customer service and selling skills. All full-time
employees, including salespeople, cashiers and management
trainees, receive additional training specific to their job
responsibilities. Our tiered curriculum includes seminars,
individual instruction and performance evaluations to promote
consistency in employee development. The manager trainee
schedule provides seminars on operational responsibilities such
as merchandising strategy, loss prevention and inventory
control. Ongoing store management training includes topics such
as advanced merchandising, delegation, personnel management,
scheduling, payroll control and loss prevention.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We also provide unique opportunities for our
employees to gain knowledge about our products. These
opportunities include &#147;hands-on&#148; training seminars and
a sporting goods product expo. At the sporting goods product
expo, our vendors set up booths where full-time store employees
from every store receive intensive training on the products we
carry. We believe this event is a successful program for both
training and motivating our employees.

Goods names as service marks in connection with our business
operations and have registered these names as federal service
marks. These service marks are due for renewal in 2005 and 2013,
respectively. We have also registered Court Casuals, Golden

our long-term leases contain fixed-price renewal options and the
average lease expiration term of our existing leases, taking

<FONT size="2">Throughout our history, we have focused on
operating traditional, full-line sporting goods stores. Our
stores generally range from 8,000 to 15,000 square feet and
average 11,000 square feet. Our typical store is located in
either free-standing street locations or multi-store shopping
centers. Our numerous convenient locations and store format
encourage frequent customer visits. In fiscal 2002, we processed
approximately 20.8&nbsp;million sales transactions and our
average transaction size was approximately $32.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our store format has resulted in productivity
levels that we believe are among the highest of any full-time
sporting goods retailer, with net sales per gross square foot of
approximately $227 for fiscal 2002. Our high net sales per
square foot combined with our efficient store-level operations
and low store maintenance costs allow us to generate
consistently strong store-level returns. All but one of our
stores open at least one year have generated positive
store-level operating profit in each of the past five fiscal
years. In addition, we have never needed to close a store due to
poor performance. The following table details our store
locations as of September&nbsp;28, 2003.

CONSIDERATIONS</FONT></B>

<DIV align="center">
<B><FONT size="2">FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS</FONT></B>
</DIV>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The following is a general discussion of certain
U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and
disposition of our common stock held by a person that is not a
&#147;United States person&#148; for U.S. federal income tax
purposes (a &#147;non-U.S. holder&#148;). For this purpose, a
&#147;United States person&#148; is a citizen or resident of the
United States, a corporation, partnership or other entity
created or organized in or under the laws of the United States
or any political subdivision thereof, an estate, the income of
which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of
its source, or a trust if (i)&nbsp;a U.S. court is able to
exercise primary supervision over the trust&#146;s
administration and (ii)&nbsp;one or more United States persons
have the authority to control all of the trust&#146;s
substantial decisions. The discussion below does not consider
specific facts and circumstances that may be relevant to a
particular non-U.S. holder&#146;s tax position. Special rules
may apply to certain non-U.S. holders, such as dealers in
securities, banks, insurance companies, tax-exempt
organizations, persons holding their shares as part of a
&#147;straddle,&#148; &#147;hedge,&#148; or &#147;conversion
transaction,&#148; persons who acquire shares as compensation,
&#147;controlled foreign corporations,&#148; &#147;passive
foreign investment companies,&#148; and &#147;foreign personal
holding companies&#148;, that are subject to special treatment
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. This
discussion is limited to beneficial owners of the common stock
who hold the common stock as a capital asset. It does not
address any aspect of state, local or foreign law or estate or
gift tax considerations. Furthermore, this discussion does not
consider the tax treatment of holders of our common stock who
are partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, or who are former citizens or long-term
residents of the United States.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Accordingly, each non-U.S. holder is urged to
consult its own tax advisor with respect to the United States
tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of common
stock, as well as any tax consequences that may arise under the
laws of any state, municipality, foreign country or other taxing
jurisdiction.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Dividends</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder ordinarily
will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a
30% rate, or at a lower rate under an applicable income tax
treaty that provides for a reduced rate of withholding. To claim
the benefit of a lower treaty rate, a non-U.S. holder must
properly file with the payor an Internal Revenue Service
(&#147;IRS&#148;) Form&nbsp;W-8BEN, or successor form, or, in
the case of payments made outside the United States with respect
to an offshore account, comply with certain documentary evidence
procedures, directly, or under certain circumstances, through an
intermediary. If, however, the dividends are effectively
connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder of a trade or
business within the United States, then the dividends will be
exempt from the withholding tax described above, provided that
an IRS Form&nbsp;W-8ECI, or successor form, indicating therein
the non-U.S. holder&#146;s taxpayer identification number, is
furnished to the payor. A recipient of such dividends will
instead be required to file a U.S. tax return and will be
subject to tax on a net income basis at applicable graduated
individual or corporate rates, unless such recipient is eligible
to claim the benefits of a tax treaty and such dividends are not
attributable to a United States permanent establishment of the
non-U.S. holder or, in case of an individual, to such
individual&#146;s fixed base in the United States. In the latter
case, if the non-U.S. holder files a tax return with the IRS and
attaches to it an IRS Form&nbsp;8833 claiming the benefits of
the tax treaty, dividends will not be subject to U.S. federal
income tax.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Effectively connected dividends received by a
foreign corporation may, under certain circumstances, be subject
as well to a &#147;branch profits tax&#148; at a rate of 30% or
a lower applicable treaty rate.

    In determining the source of shares to close out the short

    the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as
    compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through
    the over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more shares
    than could be covered by the over- allotment option, a naked
    short position, the position can only be closed out by buying
    shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely
    to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there could

<FONT size="2">Under Ontario securities legislation, a purchaser
who purchases a security offered by this prospectus supplement
during the period of distribution will have a statutory right of
action for damages, or while still the owner of the shares, for
rescission against us and the selling stockholder in the event
that this prospectus supplement contains a misrepresentation. A
purchaser will be deemed to have relied on the
misrepresentation. The right of action for damages is
exercisable not later than the earlier of 180&nbsp;days from the
date the purchaser first had knowledge of the facts giving rise
to the cause of action and three years from the date on which
payment is made for the shares. The right of action for
rescission is exercisable not later than 180&nbsp;days from the
date on which payment is made for the shares. If a purchaser
elects to exercise the right of action for rescission, the
purchaser will have no right of action for damages against us or
the selling stockholder. In no case will the amount recoverable
in any action exceed the price at which the shares were offered
to the purchaser and if the purchaser is shown to have purchased
the securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation, we and
the selling stockholder will have no liability. In the case of
an action for damages, we and the selling stockholder will not
be liable for all or any portion of the damages that are proven
to not represent the depreciation in value of the shares as a
result of the misrepresentation relied upon. These rights are in
addition to, and without derogation from, any other rights or
remedies available at law to an Ontario purchaser. The foregoing
is a summary of the rights available to an Ontario purchaser.
Ontario purchasers should refer to the complete text of the
relevant statutory provisions.

<FONT size="2">Our board of directors has a standing audit
committee, which is chaired by Sandra N. Bane and currently
consists of Ms.&nbsp;Bane and Messrs.&nbsp;Brown and Danhakl.
Ms.&nbsp;Bane and Mr.&nbsp;Brown are &#147;independent&#148; as
that term is defined in Marketplace Rule&nbsp;4200(a)(14) of the
National Association of Securities Dealers&#146; listing
standards. However, Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl may not be considered to be
&#147;independent,&#148; as a result of the fact that he may be
deemed to be an affiliate of Green Equity Investors, L.P., the
Company&#146;s principal stockholder. Notwithstanding
Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl&#146;s lack of independence, the board of
directors has determined that Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl&#146;s presence
on the audit committee is beneficial to the Company because of
his extensive experience with respect to sophisticated financial
matters. In addition, Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl has developed a thorough
understanding of the Company&#146;s financial accounting as a
result of his several years of service as a director of the
Company. The audit committee meets periodically with financial
management and the independent auditors to review accounting,
internal control, auditing and financial reporting matters.

examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and

assessing the accounting principles used and significant

financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits

completed an initial public offering of 8.1&nbsp;million shares
of common stock, of which 1.6&nbsp;million shares were sold by
selling stockholders. In the third quarter of 2002, the
Company&#146;s underwriters exercised their right to purchase an
additional 1.2&nbsp;million shares through their over-allotment
option, of which 0.5&nbsp;million shares were sold by selling
stockholders. With net proceeds of $76.1&nbsp;million from the
offering and total net proceeds of $84.0&nbsp;million after
exercise of the underwriters&#146; over-allotment option, and
together with borrowings under its credit facility, the Company
redeemed all of its outstanding senior discount notes for
$27.5&nbsp;million and preferred stock for $67.9&nbsp;million,
paid bonuses to executive officers and directors of
$1.9&nbsp;million which were funded by a reduction in the
redemption price of the Company&#146;s preferred stock and
repurchased 0.5&nbsp;million shares of the Company&#146;s common
stock from non-executive employees for $6.9&nbsp;million. All
uses of proceeds, other than the payment of a portion of the
bonuses related to the initial public offering and certain
initial public offering costs, occurred in the third quarter of
fiscal 2002.

<FONT size="2">Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase
price over fair value of net assets acquired, was historically
amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 15
to 30&nbsp;years. In the current year the Company adopted SFAS
No.&nbsp;142, <I>Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets </I>(SFAS
No.&nbsp;142). SFAS No.&nbsp;142 requires that goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be
amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually.
Upon adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;142, the Company was required to
evaluate its existing goodwill for impairment. To accomplish
this, the Company was required to identify its reporting units
and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by
assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing
goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of
December&nbsp;31, 2001. The Company has determined that it has
one reporting unit under SFAS No.&nbsp;142. The Company was then
required to determine the fair value of the reporting unit and
compare it to the carrying amount of the reporting unit within
six months of December&nbsp;31, 2001 to determine if further
impairment analysis was required. The results of this analysis
did not require the Company to recognize an impairment loss upon
adoption or upon the annual impairment test. Prior to adoption
of SFAS No.&nbsp;142, the amount of goodwill and other
intangible asset impairment, if any, was measured based upon
projected discounted future operating cashflows using a discount
rate reflecting the Company&#146;s average cost of funds.

<FONT size="2">The Company reviews its long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be
held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount
of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be
generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be
impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the
amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported
at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to
sell.

<FONT size="2">In assessing the realizability of deferred tax
assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not
that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be
realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is
dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during
the periods in which those temporary differences become
deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of
deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon
the level of historical taxable income and projections of future
taxable income over the periods during which the deferred tax
assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely
than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these
deductible differences. The amount of the deferred tax asset
considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near
term if estimates of future taxable income during the
carry-forward period are reduced.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company has a 401(k) plan to cover all
eligible employees. All employees&#146; contributions may be
supplemented by Company contributions. The Company contributed
$1,650 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2000, $1,830 for the
year ended December&nbsp;30, 2001 and $2,000 for the year ended

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Prior to September 1992, Big 5 Corp. was a wholly
owned subsidiary of Thrifty Corporation (Thrifty), which was in
turn a wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific Enterprises (PE). In
December 1996, Thrifty was acquired by Rite Aid Corp. (Rite Aid).
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">As a result of the Company&#146;s prior
relationship with Thrifty and its affiliates, the Company
continues to maintain certain relationships with Rite Aid and
PE. These relationships include continuing indemnification
obligations of PE to the Company for certain environmental
matters; agreements between the Company and PE with respect to
various tax matters and obligations under ERISA, including the
allocation of various tax obligations relating to the inclusion
of the Company and each member of the affiliated group of which
the Company was a subsidiary in certain consolidated and/or
unitary tax returns of PE, and subleases described as follows.
An affiliate of a stockholder of the Company holds convertible
preferred stock in Rite Aid, which, if converted, would
represent approximately 11% of Rite Aid&#146;s outstanding stock.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company leases certain property and equipment
from Rite Aid, which leases this property and equipment from an
outside party. Charges related to these leases totaled $203 for
the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2000, $212 for the year ended
December&nbsp;30, 2001 and $236 for the year ended
December&nbsp;29, 2002.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company had a Management Services Agreement
with an investment advisor group that is an affiliate of the
Company which was due to expire in May 2005, under which $333,
plus expenses, was paid annually for financial advisory and
investment banking services. The agreement was terminated in
conjunction with the initial public offering for a fee of $875.
During each of the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2000,
December&nbsp;30, 2001, and December&nbsp;29, 2002 the Company
paid $340, $340, and $1,044 to this advisor group, respectively.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On July&nbsp;2, 2002, the Company used a portion
of the net proceeds from its initial public offering to redeem
all of the Company&#146;s outstanding shares of Series&nbsp;A
13.45% Senior Exchangeable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per
share, (Preferred Stock). Green Equity Investors, L.P. and its
affiliates owned 309,071 of the 350,000 outstanding shares of
preferred stock and received approximately $60,600 upon
redemption of such shares.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On August&nbsp;9, 2001, the Company received a
copy of a complaint filed in the California Superior Court in
Los Angeles alleging violations of the California Labor Code and
the Business and Professions Code. This complaint was brought as
a purported class action with two subclasses comprised of our
California store managers and our California first assistant
store managers. The plaintiffs alleged that the Company
improperly classified its store managers and first assistant
store managers as exempt employees not entitled to overtime pay
for work in excess of forty hours per week. On February&nbsp;8,
2002 the Company filed a joint settlement which was approved by
the court on August&nbsp;1, 2002. The settlement constitutes a
full and complete settlement and release of all claims related
to the lawsuit. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company
agreed to pay $32.46 per week of active employment as store
manager from August&nbsp;8, 1997 through December&nbsp;31, 2001,
the covered period, and $25.50 per week of active employment as
first assistant store manager during the covered period to each
class member who submits a valid and timely claim form. The
Company also agreed to pay attorneys&#146; fees, plus costs and
expenses, in the amount of $690, as well as up to $40 for the
cost of the settlement administrator. In addition, the Company
agreed to pay the class representatives an additional aggregate
amount of $28.5 for their service as named plaintiffs. The
Company recorded a charge of approximately $2,500 in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2001 to provide for expected payments to the
class members as well as legal and other fees associated with
the settlement. All payments under the settlement agreement have
been made at December&nbsp;29, 2002.

<FONT size="2">The Company is also involved in various claims
and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In
the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these
matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company&#146;s financial position, results of operations or
liquidity.

<B><FONT size="2">(12)&nbsp;Business Concentrations</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Company operates traditional sporting goods
retail stores located principally in the Western states of the
United States. The Company is subject to regional risks such as
the local economies, weather conditions and natural disasters
and government regulations. If the region were to suffer an
economic downturn or if other adverse regional events were to
occur, there could be a significant adverse effect on
management&#146;s estimates and an adverse impact on the
Company&#146;s performance. The retail industry is impacted by
the general economy. Changes in the marketplace may
significantly affect management&#146;s estimates and the
Company&#146;s performance.

<B><FONT size="2">(14)&nbsp;Redeemable Preferred Stock</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In November 1997, the Company authorized and
issued 350,000 shares of Preferred Stock with a liquidation
preference of $100.00 per share as of the date of issue. The
Preferred Stock had a liquidation preference over the common
stock equal to the initial liquidation value of the Preferred
Stock plus accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. On July&nbsp;2,
2002, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from its
initial public offering to redeem all of the Company&#146;s
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The Preferred Stock earned cumulative dividends
at the rate of 13.45% per annum. Dividends could, at the option
of the Company, be paid in cash or by adding to the liquidation
preference of Preferred Stock an amount equal to the dividends
then accrued and payable. The Preferred Stock was subject to
mandatory redemption on November&nbsp;13, 2009 at 100% of the
liquidation preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Prior
to November&nbsp;13, 2002, the Company could redeem the
Preferred Stock following an initial public offering of common
stock at 110% of the liquidation preference, less an amount
(calculated as a percentage) sufficient to reduce the aggregate

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">On May&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company&#146;s Board of
Directors approved a resolution to increase the authorized
common shares from 5,000,000 to 50,000,000, and to enact an 8.1
for&nbsp;1 stock split such that 1,925,900 issued and
outstanding shares of common stock were split into 15,599,790
issued and outstanding shares of common stock upon the
completion of the initial public offering. In connection with
the stock split, the par value of the common stock remained
$0.01. All disclosures of shares of common stock and earnings
per share have been changed in the accompanying financial
statements to retroactively reflect the stock split.

<B><FONT size="2">(19)&nbsp;Prior Period Adjustment and
Restatement</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">During fiscal 2002, the Company&#146;s management
determined that there was an error in the calculation of its
deferred rent liability for store leases which impacted periods
prior to 2000. To correct this error, the Company increased the
accumulated deficit at January&nbsp;2, 2000 by $1,949 and has
increased the deferred rent liability by $3,304 as of
December&nbsp;30, 2001 and recognized a corresponding deferred
tax asset of $1,355 as of that date. In addition, during fiscal
2002, the Company&#146;s management determined that there was an
understatement of basic earnings per share. This resulted from
the previous inclusion in basic weighted average shares
outstanding of unvested restricted common stock issued under the
1997 Plan.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">These changes had an immaterial impact on the
previously stated net income for the 2000, 2001 and 2002 fiscal
years and net cash flows from operating, investing or financing
activities.

<B><FONT size="2">(1)&nbsp;Basis of Presentation and Description
of Business</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We operate in one business segment, as a sporting
goods retailer under the Big&nbsp;5 Sporting Goods name carrying
a broad range of hardlines, softlines and footwear, operating
282&nbsp;stores at September&nbsp;28, 2003 in California,
Washington, Arizona, Oregon, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah,
Idaho and Colorado. We are a holding company that operates our
business through Big 5 Corp., our wholly owned subsidiary.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
which in the opinion of management are necessary to present
fairly and in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) the financial
position as of September&nbsp;28, 2003 and December&nbsp;29,
2002 and the results of operations and cash flows for the 13 and
39&nbsp;week periods ended September&nbsp;28, 2003 and
September&nbsp;29, 2002. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission; however, we believe that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
included in our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the fiscal
year ended December&nbsp;29, 2002.

condensed consolidated financial statements have been

<B><FONT size="2">(3)&nbsp;Initial Public Offering and Debt
Redemption</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In June 2002, we completed an initial public
offering (IPO) of 8.1&nbsp;million shares of common stock, of
which 1.6&nbsp;million shares were sold by selling stockholders.
In July 2002, our underwriters exercised their right to purchase
an additional 1.2&nbsp;million shares through their
over-allotment option, of which 0.5&nbsp;million shares were
sold by selling stockholders. With net proceeds of
$76.1&nbsp;million from the offering and total net proceeds of
$84.0&nbsp;million after exercise of the underwriters&#146;
over-allotment option, and together with borrowings under our
credit facility, we redeemed all of our outstanding senior
discount notes and preferred stock, paid bonuses to executive
officers and directors which were funded by a reduction in the
redemption price otherwise applicable to our preferred stock and
repurchased 0.5&nbsp;million shares of our common stock from
non-executive employees. In the first quarter of fiscal 2003 we
redeemed $20.0&nbsp;million face value of our 10.875% senior
notes due 2007 using borrowings under our credit facility.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our accompanying statements of operations report
net income and earnings per diluted share in accordance with
GAAP. In addition, we internally use pro forma reporting to
evaluate our operating performance without regard to certain
non-recurring financial effects of the IPO in 2002, including
the exercise of the underwriters&#146; over-allotment option, or
certain financial effects of the 2003 partial senior note
redemption. We believe this presentation will provide investors
with additional insight into our operating results. The pro
forma figures assume that the IPO took place at the beginning of
2002 and exclude the effects of certain IPO-related expenses and
debt redemption premiums. The following table contains a
reconciliation of the pro forma adjustments to GAAP for the
13&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;29, 2002 and 39&nbsp;weeks
ended

first quarter of fiscal 2003. Options to purchase an additional
59,000&nbsp;shares of common stock that were outstanding at
September&nbsp;28, 2003 were not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share for the 39&nbsp;weeks ended
September&nbsp;28, 2003 because the exercise price of these
options was greater than the average market price of our common
stock during this period and thus would be antidilutive.
However, these same options were included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share for the 13&nbsp;weeks ended
September&nbsp;28, 2003 as the exercise price of these options
was less than the average market price of our common stock
during this period.

alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the
fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee

disclosure requirements of SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;123 to require
prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial
statements about the method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation and the effect of the method used on

<FONT size="2">In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF)&nbsp;issued EITF Issue&nbsp;No.&nbsp;02-16,
<I>&#147;Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for
Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor.&#148;</I> EITF
Issue&nbsp;No.&nbsp;02-16 addresses the timing of recognition
and classification of consideration received from vendors,
including rebates or allowances. EITF Issue&nbsp;No.&nbsp;02-16
presumes that cash consideration received from a vendor
represents a reduction of the prices of the vendor&#146;s
products or services and should, therefore, be characterized as
a reduction in cost of sales unless (i)&nbsp;it is a payment for
assets or services delivered to the vendor, in which case the
cash consideration should be characterized as revenue, or
(ii)&nbsp;it is a reimbursement of costs incurred to sell the
vendor&#146;s products, in which case the cash consideration
should be characterized as a reduction of that cost.
EITF&nbsp;No.&nbsp;02-16 became effective for us in the first
quarter of 2003, and had no impact on our financial statements,
as we have historically accounted for vendor payments in
accordance with the provisions of this standard.

FASB&nbsp;Statements&nbsp;No.&nbsp;4, 44, and 64, Amendment of
FASB&nbsp;Statement&nbsp;No.&nbsp;13, and Technical

gain or loss recognized upon early debt extinguishment may no
longer be classified as extraordinary, but rather must be
recognized as a component of net income before extraordinary
items, if any. We recognized $1.5&nbsp;million and
$4.6&nbsp;million in premium and related unamortized financing
fees in the 39&nbsp;weeks ended September&nbsp;28, 2003 and
September&nbsp;29, 2002, respectively. The $1.5&nbsp;million
charge in the first 39&nbsp;weeks of 2003 resulted from a
$1.1&nbsp;million premium related to the redemption of
$20.0&nbsp;million face value of our 10.875% senior notes and
the related carrying value of applicable deferred financing
costs which totaled $0.4&nbsp;million in the first quarter of
2003. The $4.6&nbsp;million charge in the first 39&nbsp;weeks of
2002 resulted from the repurchase of $2.5&nbsp;million face
value of our senior discount notes and $0.5&nbsp;million face
value of our 10.875% senior notes in the first quarter of 2002
and redemption in the third quarter of 2002 of all of our
remaining senior discount notes for an aggregate redemption
price of approximately $27.5&nbsp;million. The $4.6&nbsp;million
charge consists of $4.0&nbsp;million in redemption premium and
$0.6&nbsp;million in unamortized deferred financing costs
associated with the related debt.

<B><FONT size="2">ABOUT BIG 5</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We are the leading sporting goods retailer in the
western United States, operating 282 stores in 10 states under
the &#147;Big 5 Sporting Goods&#148; name at September&nbsp;28,
2003. We provide a full-line product offering of over 25,000
stock keeping units in a traditional sporting goods store format
that averages 11,000&nbsp;square feet. Our product mix includes
athletic shoes, apparel and accessories, as well as a broad
selection of outdoor and athletic equipment for team sports,
fitness, camping, hunting, fishing, tennis, golf, snowboarding
and in-line skating.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We believe that over the past 48&nbsp;years we
have developed a reputation with the competitive and
recreational sporting goods customer as a convenient
neighborhood sporting goods retailer that consistently delivers
value on quality merchandise. Our stores carry a wide range of
products at competitive prices from well-known brand name
manufacturers, including Nike, Reebok, adidas, New Balance,
Wilson, Spalding and Columbia. We also offer brand name
merchandise produced exclusively for us, private label
merchandise and specials on quality items we purchased through
opportunistic buys of vendor over-stock and close-out
merchandise. We reinforce our value reputation through weekly
print advertising in major and local newspapers and mailers
designed to generate customer traffic, drive net sales and build
brand awareness.

<FONT size="2">Robert W. Miller co-founded our company in 1955
with the establishment of five retail locations in California.
We sold World War II surplus items until 1963, when we began
focusing exclusively on sporting goods and changed our trade
name to &#147;Big 5 Sporting Goods.&#148; In 1971, we were
acquired by Thrifty Corporation, which was subsequently
purchased by Pacific Enterprises. In 1992, management bought our
company in conjunction with Green Equity Investors, L.P., an
affiliate of Leonard Green&nbsp;&#38; Partners, L.P. In 1997,
Robert&nbsp;W. Miller, Steven&nbsp;G. Miller and Green Equity
Investors, L.P. recapitalized our company so that the majority
of our common stock would be owned by our management and
employees.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In June 2002, we completed an initial public
offering (IPO) of 8.1&nbsp;million shares of common stock, of
which 1.6&nbsp;million shares were sold by selling stockholders.
In July 2002, our underwriters exercised their right to purchase
an additional 1.2&nbsp;million shares through their
over-allotment option, of which 0.5&nbsp;million shares were
sold by the selling stockholders. With net proceeds of
approximately $76.1&nbsp;million from the IPO and total net
proceeds of $84.0&nbsp;million after exercise of the
underwriters&#146; over-allotment option, and together with
borrowings under our credit facility, we redeemed all of our
outstanding senior discount notes and preferred stock, paid
bonuses to executive officers and directors which were funded by
a reduction in the redemption price of our preferred stock and
repurchased 0.5&nbsp;million shares of our common stock from
non-executive employees.

operating and financial restrictions on us, including, among
other things, restrictions on our ability to incur additional
indebtedness, create or allow liens, pay dividends, engage in
mergers, acquisitions or reorganizations or make specified
capital expenditures. For example, our ability to engage in the
foregoing transactions will depend upon, among other things, our
level of indebtedness at the time of the proposed transaction
and whether we are in default under our financing agreements. As
a result, our ability to respond to changing business and
economic conditions and to secure additional financing, if
needed, may be significantly restricted, and we may be prevented
from engaging in transactions that might further our growth
strategy or otherwise benefit us without obtaining consent from
our lenders. In addition, our credit facility is secured by a
first priority security interest in our trade accounts
receivable, merchandise inventories, service marks and
trademarks and other general intangible assets, including trade
names. In the event of our insolvency, liquidation, dissolution
or reorganization, the lenders under our debt instruments would
be entitled to payment in full from our assets before
distributions, if any, were made to our stockholders.

<FONT size="2">In addition, our expansion in new and existing
markets may present competitive, distribution and merchandising
challenges that differ from our current challenges. These
potential new challenges include competition among our stores,
added strain on our distribution center, additional information
to be processed by our management information systems and
diversion of management attention from ongoing operations. We
face additional challenges in entering new markets, including
consumers&#146; lack of awareness of us, difficulties in hiring
personnel and problems due to our unfamiliarity with local real
estate markets and demographics. New markets may also have
different competitive conditions, consumer tastes and
discretionary spending patterns than our existing markets. To
the extent that we are not able to meet these new challenges,
our net sales could decrease and our operating costs could
increase.

<B><FONT size="2">Because our stores are concentrated in the
western United States, we are subject to regional
risks.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our stores are located in the western United
States. Because of this, we are subject to regional risks, such
as the economy, weather conditions, power outages, the
increasing cost of electricity and earthquakes and other natural
disasters specific to the states in which we operate. For
example, particularly in southern California where we have a
high concentration of stores, seasonal factors such as
unfavorable snow conditions, such as those that occurred in the
winter of 2002-2003, inclement weather or other localized
conditions such as flooding, fires (such as the recent major
fires), earthquakes or electricity blackouts could harm our
operations. If the region were to suffer an economic downturn or
other adverse regional event, our net sales and profitability
and our ability to implement our planned expansion program could
suffer. Several of our competitors operate stores across the
United States and thus are not as vulnerable to these regional
risks.

<B><FONT size="2">If we lose key management or are unable to
attract and retain the talent required for our business, our
operating results could suffer.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our future success depends to a significant
degree on the skills, experience and efforts of Steven G.
Miller, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and
other key personnel who are not obligated to stay with us. The
loss of the services of any of these individuals could harm our
business and operations. In addition, as our business grows, we
will need to attract and retain additional qualified personnel
in a timely manner and develop, train and manage an increasing
number of management level sales associates and other employees.
Competition for qualified employees could require us to pay
higher wages to attract a sufficient number of employees, and
increases in the federal minimum wage or other employee benefits
costs could increase our operating expenses. If we are unable to
attract and retain personnel, as needed in the future, our net
sales growth and operating results may suffer.

<B><FONT size="2">If our suppliers do not provide sufficient
quantities of products, our net sales and profitability could
suffer.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We purchase merchandise from over 750 vendors.
Although we did not rely on any single vendor for more than 6.0%
of our total purchases during the twelve months ended
June&nbsp;29, 2003, our dependence on principal suppliers
involves risk. Our 20 largest vendors collectively accounted for
36.2% of our total purchases during the twelve months ended
June&nbsp;29, 2003. If there is a disruption in supply from a
principal supplier or distributor, we may be unable to obtain
merchandise that we desire to sell and that consumers desire to
purchase. In addition, a significant portion of the products
that we purchase, including those purchased from domestic
suppliers, are manufactured abroad. A vendor could discontinue
selling products to us at any time for reasons that may or may
not be in our control. Our net sales and profitability could
decline if we are unable to promptly replace a vendor who is
unwilling or unable to satisfy our requirements with a vendor
providing equally appealing products.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Because all of our stores rely on a single
distribution center, any disruption could reduce our net
sales.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We currently rely on a single distribution center
in Fontana, California. Any natural disaster or other serious
disruption to this distribution center due to fire, earthquake
or any other cause could damage a significant portion of our
inventory and could materially impair both our ability to
adequately stock our stores and our net sales and profitability.
If the security measures used at our distribution center do not
prevent inventory theft, our gross margin may significantly
decrease. In August 2002, we entered into a two-year lease for
an additional 136,000 square foot satellite distribution center
to handle seasonal merchandise and returns. In addition, because
of limited capacity at the current distribution center, we will
need to build a replacement distribution center in the next 15
to 18&nbsp;months. Any disruption to, or delay in, this process
could harm our future operations.

<B><FONT size="2">Because an equity owner of the selling
stockholder is a member of the board of directors of one of our

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">The selling stockholder, Green Equity Investors,
L.P., an affiliate of Leonard Green &#38; Partners, L.P., holds
approximately 27% of our outstanding common stock and also holds
approximately 12.8% of the outstanding common stock of The
Sports Authority, Inc., one of our competitors. John G. Danhakl,
an equity owner of Leonard Green &#38; Partners, L.P., currently
serves on our board of directors. Jonathan D. Sokoloff, an
equity owner of Leonard Green &#38; Partners, L.P. and a former
member of our board of directors, currently serves on The Sports
Authority, Inc.&#146;s board of directors. Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl may
have conflicts of interest with respect to certain matters
affecting us, including the pursuit of certain business
opportunities presented to Leonard Green &#38; Partners, L.P.
All potential conflicts may not be resolved in a manner that is
favorable to us. We believe it is impossible to predict the
precise circumstances under which future potential conflicts may
arise and therefore intend to address potential conflicts on a
case-by-case basis. Under Delaware law, directors have a
fiduciary duty to act in good faith and in what they believe to
be in the best interest of the corporation and its stockholders.
Such duties include the duty to refrain from impermissible
self-dealing and to deal fairly with respect to transactions in
which the directors, or other companies with which such
directors are affiliated, have an interest.

<FONT size="2">The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the
&#147;Act&#148;) that became law in July 2002, as well as new
rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;), have required and
will require changes in some of our corporate governance
practices. The Act also requires the SEC to promulgate
additional new rules on a variety of subjects. In addition to
final rules and rule proposals already made by the SEC, Nasdaq
has proposed revisions to its requirements for companies that
are quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.&#146;s National
Market. We expect these new rules and regulations to increase
our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some
activities more difficult, time consuming and/or costly. We also
expect these new rules and regulations to make it more difficult
and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer
liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced
coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage.
These new rules and regulations could also make it more
difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our
board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit
committee, and qualified executive officers.

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">A downturn in the economy may affect consumer
purchases of discretionary items, which could reduce our net
sales.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In general, our sales represent discretionary
spending by our customers. Discretionary spending is affected by
many factors, including, among others, general business
conditions, interest rates, inflation, consumer debt levels, the
availability of consumer credit, taxation, electricity power
rates, unemployment trends and other matters that influence
consumer confidence and spending. Our customers&#146; purchases
of discretionary items, including our products, could decline
during periods when disposable income is lower or periods of
actual or perceived unfavorable economic conditions. If this
occurs, our net sales and profitability could decline.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">Seasonal fluctuations in the sales of sporting
goods could cause our annual operating results to suffer
significantly.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We experience seasonal fluctuations in our net
sales and operating results. In fiscal 2002, we generated 26.5%
of our net sales and 35.2% of our operating income in the fourth
fiscal quarter, which includes the holiday selling season as
well as the peak winter sports selling season. As a result, we
incur significant additional expenses in the fourth fiscal
quarter due to higher purchase volumes and increased staffing.
If we miscalculate the demand for our products generally or for
our product mix during the fourth fiscal quarter, our net sales
could decline, resulting in excess inventory, which could harm
our financial performance. Because a substantial portion of our
operating income is derived from our fourth fiscal quarter net
sales, a shortfall in expected fourth fiscal quarter net sales
could cause our annual operating results to suffer significantly.

<FONT size="2">Some of our competitors have a larger number of
stores and greater financial, distribution, marketing and other
resources than we have. Two of our major competitors, The Sports
Authority, Inc. and Gart Sports Company, completed a merger in
August 2003 and now operate under the name The Sports Authority,
Inc. In addition, if our competitors reduce their prices, it may
be difficult for us to reach our net sales goals without
reducing our prices. As a result of this competition, we may
also need to spend more on advertising and promotion than we
anticipate. If we are unable to compete successfully, our
operating results will suffer.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">We may incur costs from litigation or
increased regulation relating to products that we sell,
particularly firearms.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">We sell products manufactured by third parties,
some of which may be defective. If any product that we sell were
to cause physical injury or injury to property, the injured
party or parties could bring claims against us as the retailer
of the product. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to
cover every claim that could be asserted against us. If a
successful claim were brought against us in excess of our
insurance coverage, it could harm our business. Even
unsuccessful claims could result in the expenditure of funds and
management time and could have a negative impact on our
business. In addition, our products are subject to the Federal
Consumer Product Safety Act, which empowers the Consumer Product
Safety Commission to protect consumers from hazardous sporting
goods and other articles. The Consumer Product Safety Commission
has the authority to exclude from the market certain consumer
products that are found to be hazardous. Similar laws exist in
some states and cities in the United States. If we fail to
comply with government and industry safety standards, we may be
subject to claims, lawsuits, fines and negative publicity that
could harm our operating results.
</FONT>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">In addition, we sell firearms and ammunition,
products associated with an increased risk of injury and related
lawsuits. Sales of firearms and ammunition have historically
represented less than 5% of our annual net sales. We may incur
losses due to lawsuits relating to our performance of background
checks on firearms purchases as mandated by state and federal
law or the improper use of firearms sold by us, including
lawsuits by municipalities or other organizations attempting to
recover costs from firearms manufacturers and retailers relating
to the misuse of firearms. In addition, in the future there may
be increased federal, state or local regulation, including
taxation, of the sale of firearms in both our current markets as
well as future markets in which we may operate. Commencement of
these lawsuits against us or the establishment of new
regulations could reduce our net sales and decrease our
profitability.
</FONT>

<P align="left">
<B><FONT size="2">If we fail to anticipate changes in consumer
preferences, we may experience lower net sales, higher inventory
markdowns and lower margins.</FONT></B>

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Our products must appeal to a broad range of
consumers whose preferences cannot be predicted with certainty.
These preferences are also subject to change. Our success
depends upon our ability to anticipate and respond in a timely
manner to trends in sporting goods merchandise and
consumers&#146; participation in sports. If we fail to identify
and respond to these changes, our net sales may decline. In
addition, because we often make commitments to purchase products
from our vendors up to six months in advance of the proposed
delivery, if we misjudge the market for our merchandise, we may
over-stock unpopular products and be forced to take inventory
markdowns that could have a negative impact on profitability.

<P align="left">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<FONT size="2">Terrorist attacks or acts of war may cause damage
or disruption to us and our employees, facilities, information
systems, vendors, and customers, which could significantly
impact our net sales, costs and expenses and financial
condition. The threat of terrorist attacks in the United States
since September 11, 2001 continues to create many economic and
political uncertainties. The potential for future terrorist
attacks, the national and international responses to terrorist
attacks and other acts of war or hostility may cause greater
uncertainty and cause our business to suffer in ways that we
currently cannot predict. The military action taken by the
United States and its allies in Iraq could have a short or long
term negative economic impact upon the financial markets and our
business in general.

Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl may from time to time have conflicts of
interest with respect to certain matters affecting us. All of
these potential conflicts may not be resolved in a manner that
is favorable to us. We believe it is impossible to predict the
precise circumstances under which future potential conflicts may
arise and therefore intend to address potential conflicts on a
case-by-case basis. Under Delaware law, directors have a
fiduciary duty to act in good faith and in what they believe to
be in the best interest of the corporation and its stockholders.
Such duties include the duty to refrain from impermissible
self-dealing and to deal fairly with respect to transactions in
which the directors, or other companies with which such
directors are affiliated, have an interest.

<FONT size="2">In September 1992, we issued an aggregate of
25,353,649&nbsp;shares of our common stock to Green Equity
Investors, L.P. pursuant to a stock subscription agreement
between Green Equity Investors, L.P. and us. In connection with
our recapitalization in 1997, we repurchased approximately
19,492,675&nbsp;shares of our common stock from Green Equity
Investors, L.P. In June 2002, immediately following our IPO,
Green Equity Investors, L.P. purchased an additional
310,100&nbsp;shares of our common stock pursuant to a
subscription agreement with us. Accordingly, Green Equity
Investors, L.P. currently has beneficial ownership of
6,171,074&nbsp;shares of our common stock. Pursuant to the terms
of the 1992 stock subscription agreement, as amended by the
amended and restated stockholders agreement, Green Equity
Investors, L.P. has the right, on two occasions (including this
one), to require us to register its shares of common stock at
any time, provided that it holds at least 8% of our outstanding
common stock and the request must cover 8% or more of our
outstanding common stock. This prospectus and the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a part are being filed by
us pursuant to the registration rights we granted to Green
Equity Investors, L.P. under the 1992 stock subscription
agreement and the amended and restated stockholders agreement,
and we are bearing all related fees, costs and expenses, other
than brokers&#146; commissions and similar fees. We have agreed
to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for
a period of 180&nbsp;days unless the distribution of shares
offered hereby is completed prior to the end of the 180-day
period.

<FONT size="2">We are a party to an amended and restated
stockholders agreement with Green Equity Investors, L.P., Robert
W. Miller and Steven G. Miller. Under the amended and restated
stockholders agreement, Green Equity Investors, L.P. and its
affiliates may designate one member, currently Mr.&nbsp;Danhakl,
for nomination to our board of directors so long as it
beneficially owns at least 5% of our outstanding shares of
common stock. Robert W. Miller and Steven G. Miller have agreed
to vote all of their common stock in favor of electing Green
Equity Investors, L.P.&#146;s nominee. If Robert W. Miller or
Steven G. Miller is nominated for election to the board of
directors, Green Equity Investors, L.P. has agreed to vote all
of its shares in favor of electing each of them. The amended and
restated stockholders agreement also modified Green Equity
Investors, L.P.&#146;s previously-granted registration rights,
as described above. The amended and restated stockholders
agreement terminates when Green Equity Investors, L.P. and its
affiliates beneficially own less than 5% of our outstanding
common stock. If Green Equity Investors, L.P. sells all of the
shares it is offering pursuant to this prospectus, it and its
affiliates will hold less than 5% of our outstanding common
stock, and the amended and restated stockholders agreement will
terminate.
