KATY, Texas, Sept. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Academy Sports and Outdoors, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASO) (\u201c<\/em>Academy\u201d <\/em>\u00a0\u00a0or the \u201c<\/em>Company\u201d <\/em>) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended August 1, 2026.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe delivered another quarter of profitable growth, with net sales increasing 3.0%. While consumer spending remains pressured, particularly among lower-income households, our team has continued to execute at a high level by focusing on the key events and categories that matter most to our customers,” said Steve Lawrence, Chief Executive Officer. “We are reinvesting tariff-related benefits into value, expanding compelling new brands and categories, and accelerating initiatives across stores, omni-channel and loyalty. These actions are helping us gain market share, strengthen customer engagement and reinforce our confidence in achieving our fiscal 2026 sales and earnings objectives.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\n 2026 Outlook<\/u>
\n <\/strong>
\n
\u201cOur second quarter results demonstrate the strength of the business and the discipline of our operating model. We delivered double digit EPS growth, produced strong free cash flow and continued returning capital to shareholders through both share repurchases and dividends. Importantly, we accomplished this while investing in strategic growth initiatives designed to support sustainable long-term growth,\u201d said Carl Ford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. \u201cAs we enter the second half of the year, our balance sheet remains strong, our growth drivers are performing well and we are well positioned to deliver within our fiscal 2026 outlook.”<\/p>\n

This guidance takes into account various factors, both internal and external, such as the expected benefits of the Company’s growth initiatives, current consumer demand, the competitive environment, and potential impacts from inflation and other economic risks; actual results may differ materially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The earnings per share estimates do not include any potential future share repurchases and assume a tax rate of approximately 22.0%.<\/p>\n

(1) Comparable sales include stores open after thirteen full fiscal months, all e-commerce sales, and credit card revenue.<\/p>\n

(2) Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per common share (EPS), diluted, and adjusted free cash flow are non-GAAP measures. See “Non-GAAP Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.<\/p>\n

(3) We have not reconciled guidance for adjusted free cash flow to the most comparable GAAP measure because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts given the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management’s control and could be significant; therefore, we are unable to provide an estimate of the most closely comparable GAAP measure at this time.<\/p>\n

\n Non-GAAP Measures
<\/u>
\n <\/strong>Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Common Share, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow have been presented in this press release as supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles (\u201cGAAP\u201d). The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors as they provide additional information on comparisons between periods by excluding certain items that affect overall comparability. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for business planning purposes, to consider underlying trends of its business, and in measuring its performance relative to others in the market, and believes presenting these measures also provides information to investors and others for understanding and evaluating trends in the Company\u2019s operating results or measuring performance in the same manner as the Company\u2019s management. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company\u2019s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures. For additional information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 (the “Annual Report”), filed on March 17, 2026 and our Quarterly Report for the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2026 to be filed on September 9, 2026 (“the Quarterly Report”), which may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.<\/p>\n

\n See \u201cReconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures\u201d below for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.<\/em>\n <\/p>\n

\n Forward-Looking Statements<\/u>
\n <\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on Academy\u2019s current expectations and are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements may incorporate words such as \u201cbelieve,\u201d \u201cexpect,”, “anticipate,” \u201cforward,\u201d \u201cahead,\u201d \u201copportunities,\u201d \u201cplans,\u201d \u201cpriorities,\u201d \u201cgoals,\u201d \u201cfuture,\u201d \u201cshort\/long term,\u201d \u201cwill,\u201d \u201cshould,\u201d or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. The forward-looking statements in this press release include, among other things, statements regarding the Company\u2019s fiscal 2026 outlook under the caption “2026 Outlook,” the Company’s strategic plans and financial objectives, including the implementation of such plans, the growth of the Company’s business and operations, including the opening of new stores and the expansion into new markets, the Company’s payment of dividends, including the timing and the amount thereof, share repurchases by the Company, and the Company’s expectations regarding its future performance and future financial condition are subject to various risks, uncertainties, assumptions, or changes in circumstances that are all difficult to predict or quantify. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global, regional, or local economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory, environmental, and other factors that could affect overall consumer spending or our industry, including the possible effects of ongoing macroeconomic challenges, inflation and higher interest rates, trade policy changes or additional tariffs, geopolitical tensions, or changes to the financial health of our customers, many of which are beyond Academy’s control. These and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are set forth in Academy’s filings with the SEC, including the Annual Report, under the caption “Part 1A. Risk Factors,” as may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC. Any forward-looking statement in this press release speaks only as of the date of this release. Academy undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable securities laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
