sporting goods retailer, today reported sales results for the fiscal 2018 fourth quarter and full year ended December&nbsp;30, 2018. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the fiscal 2018
fourth quarter, net sales were $247.1&nbsp;million compared to net sales of $242.9&nbsp;million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. Same store sales increased 1.1% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company&#146;s merchandise margins
decreased approximately 11&nbsp;basis points for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the fiscal 2018 full year,
net sales decreased to $987.6&nbsp;million from $1.01&nbsp;billion in fiscal 2017. Same store sales decreased 2.7% for the fiscal 2018 full year. The Company&#146;s merchandise margins decreased approximately 12&nbsp;basis points for the fiscal 2018
full year compared to fiscal 2017. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Total merchandise inventories were down approximately 7.0% at <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end</FONT> versus
the prior year, reflecting a significant reduction of winter product inventory as well as the Company&#146;s efforts to optimize inventory levels across its product assortment. Fiscal <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end</FONT> debt levels
decreased by approximately $19&nbsp;million from the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2018 to $65&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;30, 2018. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the
fiscal 2018 fourth quarter, the Company now expects to realize a loss per share in the range of $0.15 to $0.17, which compares to the Company&#146;s previous guidance for the fourth quarter of a loss per share in the range of $0.15 to $0.25. For the
fiscal 2018 full year, the Company now expects to realize a loss per share in the range of $0.08 to $0.10. Earnings guidance for the fiscal 2018 fourth quarter and full year is unaudited and excludes charges to be determined related to a deferred
tax valuation allowance for certain income tax credits and potential asset impairment. </P>

sales increased in the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">mid-single-digit</FONT> range during our December period,&#148; said Steven G. Miller, the Company&#146;s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. &#147;Sales benefitted from
exceptionally strong demand for winter products following Christmas as winter weather conditions in many of our markets were highly favorable. For the quarter, same store sales in our apparel category increased in the high-single-digit range, same
store sales in our footwear category were slightly positive and same store sales in our hardgoods category decreased in the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">low-single-digit</FONT> range. We achieved small increases in both customer transactions and
average sale during the quarter.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Mr.&nbsp;Miller continued, &#147;We are pleased that the positive weather comparisons and resulting momentum in
