Dick's Guidance Suggests Weak 2008, But Growth Story is Intact; Reiterate Buy Graphic_rating_buy DKS
-60.02%
in 176 days
5/22 - "The company significantly reduced its previous 2008 guidance. However, given the magnitude of the reduction, we believe the new low end of EPS guidance ($1.22) takes into account all reasonable negative scenarios for the year, and should not need to be lowered going forward." "In addition to a weak consumer, we believe Dick’s is suffering from the lack of strong trends in the sporting goods market, especially given the strong trends last year such as Heely’s, Crocs and Under Armour...As the company noted on the call, it was the last of its competitors to feel the consumer slowdown,...

5/23 - "First-quarter net income at Dick's fell 4% to $20.8 million, or $0.18 per share. Net sales jumped 11% from last year to $912.1 million, although same-store sales dropped by 3.8%. Unfortunately, comps for its Golf Galaxy concept plunged by 7.4% on a pro forma basis...Dick's said to expect earnings of $1.22 per share to $1.36 per share in 2008 (compared to $1.33 per share in 2007). It also said it believes comps will decrease by 3% to 5% during the year." "...it looks like Dick's is going to have a tough time this year, so I can't say I'm exactly ultra-bullish on this stock.

5/28 - "Last week while I was away on vacation Dicks Sporting Goods (DKS) delivered disappointing results and guidance...I have owned DKS since the company went public and have no plans to sell stock. In fact I might add on weakness." "DKS is suffering a little from the slowing economy but even greater from a cyclical downturn in golfing...Also, the shine is off of Under Armour (UA) which performed quite well in the year ago period. However, I can accept some bumps along the road to what is one of the best long term specialty retail growth stories in the marketplace." "If you don’t have D...

Dick's Sporting Goods: Post Mortem on Earnings Graphic_rating_buy DKS
-58.17%
in 177 days

Last week, Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) delivered disappointing results and guidance. Since I have been well connected to analysis on DKS since the company went public, I thought that I would pass on some thoughts about the earnings report and conference call. Management has been known to be conservative with its guidance but this time the guide down was too much to ignore.  

The stock was sold down sharply and traded down to a 52 week low. I have owned DKS since the company went public and have no plans to sell stock. In fact, I might add on weakness. The company has had only two off quarter
