2022 Annual ReportOUR BELIEF WE BELIEVE SPORTS HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE LIVES. OUR COMMON PURPOSE WE CREATE CONFIDENCE AND EXCITEMENT BY INSPIRING, SUPPORTING, AND PERSONALLY EQUIPPING ALL ATHLETES TO ACHIEVE THEIR DREAMS. Dear Fellow Shareholders: In 2022, DICK’S continued to build momentum and delivered another year of strong performance. Our 2022 results underscore the value of our long-term business strategies and highlight our commitment to exceptional execution. They also demonstrate the excellent relationship we have with our customers, whom we call athletes. Our athletes continue to prioritize sport and are passionate about maintaining healthy, active lifestyles. They increasingly rely on DICK’S to meet their needs and achieve their dreams, and we are proud to support them on this journey. Our highlights for 2022 include strong overall annual performance, as well as a significant financial growth trajectory over the past three years. Specifically: • We delivered record sales of $12.4 billion, representing a 41% increase compared with our sales in 2019. • We continued to gain market share at an accelerating pace, with considerable growth in our largest and most important categories. • We acquired seven million new athletes into our ecosystem, and we reached a record number of members in our top-tier loyalty program, ScoreCard Gold, which accounts for more than 40% of our total sales. • We posted an EBT margin rate of more than 11%, more than double our rate in 2019. • We delivered earnings per diluted share of $10.78 and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share of $12.04, more than three times higher than 2019. The credit for these accomplishments belongs to our exceptional team. DICK’S employs more than 50,000 teammates across our stores, distribution centers and headquarters nationwide. These individuals have a passion for our business, a strong work ethic and a dedication to excellence. Together, our teammates give DICK’S a true competitive advantage, and I am deeply grateful to each of them for their ongoing support. We believe that the key to providing a great experience for our athletes is to ensure that our teammates are highly engaged. One of the ways we achieve this is through promoting a unique, family-oriented culture that supports our teammates both in and out of the workplace. For example, our Teammate Relief Fund provides financial assistance to teammates and their immediate families who are experiencing unexpected hardship. During 2022, the Fund distributed approximately $500 thousand in aid to more than 350 teammates. We are pleased to note that our outstanding commitment to our teammates continues to be recognized by national media organizations and industry experts as a great place to work. As identified within our most recent teammate engagement survey, DICK’S was also rated as a fun place to work by more than 80% of our teammates, representing a key driver of engagement across our company. 75 Years of Supporting Athletes In 2023, we are celebrating DICK’S 75th anniversary. This milestone presents us with an opportunity to reflect on our growth story, which is a classic American dream including ingenuity and hard work. DICK’S was founded in 1948 by Dick Stack. Dick had a dream of opening a local bait and tackle shop, and when his grandmother gave him $300 that she had stashed in a cookie jar, he made his dream a reality. Over time, Dick opened a second location, and in 1984 his son, Ed Stack, with his siblings, purchased the business from their father. Under Ed’s leadership, DICK’S grew from two small stores in upstate New York into the nation’s preeminent sporting goods retailer. We move forward with Ed as our Executive Chairman, with pride in our past and with confidence in our ability to write the next chapter in our growth story. Changing Lives Through Sports DICK’S has always believed that sports have the power to change lives. We hold this belief because we’ve seen the impact sports can make. Sports have the power to change our perspectives, shape our character, and enrich our communities. It’s with this belief in mind that in 2019, The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation set a goal to give one million kids a chance to play by 2024. In February 2022, we surpassed this goal two years early. Now, we are aiming higher. Our current goal is to impact two million youth athletes by 2024, and we are well on our way toward achieving this. In support of this, and to honor our 75th anniversary, The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation will award 75 grants worth $75,000 each to select youth sports organizations that we believe are changing lives through sports. Through this commitment, we will donate more than $5.6 million to underfunded communities across the country during 2023. Helping athletes achieve their dreams is what we do. Our presence in our communities and our commitment to creating access to sport in every one of them sets us apart in the marketplace. We also continue to advance our sustainability goals, which are outlined in our annual Purpose Playbook. The Purpose Playbook highlights the efforts of our teammates across our four major sustainability pillars. One of these pillars centers on protecting the environment, and we made progress in 2022 toward the goal of reducing our greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2030. Another of our pillars is to promote inclusivity, and we have pledged to allocate $300 million of our annual spending to diverse suppliers by 2025. Rewarding Our Shareholders We leverage our financial strength to increase our investment in long-term growth opportunities and to return capital to our shareholders. Since 2021, we have returned nearly $2.4 billion to our shareholders, and in 2023, we more than doubled our quarterly dividend, which equates to an annualized payout of $4.00 per share. This decision underscores our confidence in the structurally higher sales and earnings profile of our business and our ongoing focus on rewarding the loyalty of our shareholders. We believe our confidence in our future is well placed. Since 2017, we have methodically transformed virtually every aspect of our business. DICK’S has emerged from this process solidly positioned not only to maintain our leadership but to extend it within our large and highly fragmented industry. In 2023, we will continue to execute our current strategies. We will also build on our exceptional 2022 results, which set a new bar for us in both sales and profitability and provide an excellent foundation for growth. Driving Continuous Improvement Just like the athletes we serve, we believe we can always do better, and we demonstrate this by driving continuous improvement across every aspect of our business. Within merchandising, we have curated an industry-leading assortment of products that are both differentiated and on-trend. We maintain strong relationships with key brand partners who value that DICK’S is rooted in sport and our ability to showcase their complete brand portfolios. We are also committed to developing relationships with new and emerging brands, as well as creating powerhouse vertical brands. Providing an unparalleled athlete experience is a top priority. In our stores, we have made significant investments in training to provide an enhanced level of service to our athletes, as well as to ensure that DICK’S remains a fun and rewarding place to work. We also leverage technology to provide our athletes with access to unique in-store elements, such as HitTrax™ batting cages, TrackMan™ golf simulators, and premium full-service footwear decks. These experiential elements help to set DICK’S apart and inspire confidence in our athletes. Furthermore, our stores remain the hub of our omnichannel experience. During 2022, they enabled over 90% of our total sales, including a thriving in-store pickup and curbside business. Over time, we have built the most extensive youth sports dataset in our industry. Combined with our digital capabilities and our expertise in data science, this dataset represents a key strategic advantage. We are committed to leveraging these collective assets to deliver a seamless athlete experience, including creating personalized marketing strategies that truly resonate with our athletes and drive loyalty. We also continue to innovate within the multibillion-dollar youth sports technology market. Our GameChanger app has become the premier scoring and statistics mobile app for youth sports, and we are capitalizing on this to strengthen our relationships with young athletes and their families. We have also innovated through new specialty concepts, such as Public Lands and Golf Galaxy Performance Center, which cater to the precise needs of outdoor enthusiasts and avid golfers. We recently acquired leading outdoor retailer, Moosejaw, underscoring our commitment to expanding and innovating within the multibillion-dollar outdoor category. There is no greater example of our commitment to improving the athlete experience than DICK’S House of Sport, which we launched in 2021. House of Sport fosters a deep sense of community involvement, while elevating traditional expectations for retail service, products, and experience. As a result, it has become a destination where athletes can fuel their passions. We currently have three House of Sport locations, all of which have exceeded our initial performance expectations, and we expect House of Sport to be a significant part of our future growth story. Over the next two years, we plan to open approximately 20 additional locations, and by 2027, we estimate that we will have between 75 and 100 House of Sport locations nationwide. Defining Our Future We will continue to create and define our future, and as the largest U.S. sporting goods retailer, we are well-positioned to extend our lead and continue gaining share in a vibrant $140 billion industry. On behalf of our Board of Directors, our management team and our teammates, thank you for your continued belief in our company and commitment to our shared vision for DICK’S role in the future of sport. We appreciate your support. Lauren R.

Accordingly, our future performance and financial results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in any such forward-looking statements. Investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. These statements can be identified as those that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance or advancements and by forward-looking words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “estimate”, “predict”, “intend”, “plan”, “project”, “goal”, “will”, “will be”, “will continue”, “will result”, “could”, “may”, “might” or any variations of such words or other words with similar meanings. Forward-looking statements address, among other things, our belief that many consumers have made lasting lifestyle changes with an increased focus on health and fitness, sports, and outdoor activities, leading to structurally higher sales; current macroeconomic conditions, including the uncertain impact of inflationary pressures and rising interest rates; supply chain disruptions, including factory closures and port congestion, which are resulting in apparel overages from late arriving inventory and elevated rising container and transportation costs; the normalization of sales in certain categories, including fitness and outdoor equipment; the adequacy of our cash flow; our ability to control expenses; plans to opportunistically open new stores in under-penetrated markets and leverage our real estate portfolio to capitalize on future opportunities in the near and intermediate term as our existing leases come up for renewal and our plans to add new retail concepts and experiential stores; plans to open additional DICK’S House of Sport stores in 2023; plans to convert the existing Field & Stream stores to DICK’S House of Sport stores, expanded DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, or other specialty concept stores; plans to provide our vertical brands with improved space in-store, increased marketing and expansion into additional product categories; our diversity goals; the belief that our inventory is healthy and well-positioned to meet the demands of our athletes in 2023; our decision to redeem our intention to repay the principal outstanding amounts of the Convertible Senior Notes in shares and our intention to unwind the remaining portions of the convertible bond hedge and warrants; our intention to offset the dilutive impact of anticipated conversions of the Convertible Senior Notes through the shares received from the convertible bond hedge and share repurchases using excess cash, free cash flow or borrowings on our unsecured $1.6 billion revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”); our belief that the Inflation Reduction Act will not materially impact our financial results, including our annual estimated effective tax rate and liquidity; projections of our future profitability; projected range of capital expenditures which we expect will be concentrated on new store development, relocations and remodels, improvements within our existing stores including converting 100 stores to premium full-service footwear decks, and continued investments in technology to enhance our store fulfillment, in-store pickup and other foundational capabilities; and our plans to make improvements within our existing stores and new store development and to continue investing in technology to enhance our store fulfillment and in-store pickup capabilities; anticipated store openings and relocations; plans to return capital to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases; and our future results of operations and financial condition. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. A detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included in the section titled “Risk Factors” (Item 1A of this Form 10-K). In addition, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment; therefore, new risk factors can arise, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor to assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any individual risk factor, or combination of risk factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward- looking statement. The forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are made as of this date. We do not assume any obligation and do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise except as may be required by securities laws. PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS General DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, referred to as “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” unless specified otherwise) is a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high- quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories. As of January 28, 2023, we operated 728 DICK’S Sporting Goods locations across the United States, serving and inspiring our customers, whom we refer to as athletes, to achieve their personal best through interactions with our dedicated employees, whom we refer to as our teammates, in-store experiences and unique specialty shop-in-shops. In addition to DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, we own and operate Golf Galaxy, Public Lands and Going Going Gone! specialty concept stores and offer our products both online and through our mobile apps. We also own and operate DICK’S House of Sport and Golf Galaxy Performance Center, as well as GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications, live scorekeeping and video streaming. 3 We are celebrating our 75th anniversary as a Company in 2023 and are proud of our growth and accomplishments since our inception. We were founded and incorporated in 1948 in New York under the name Dick’s Clothing and Sporting Goods, Inc. when Richard “Dick” Stack, the father of Edward W. Stack, our Executive Chairman, opened his original bait and tackle store in Binghamton, New York. Edward W. Stack joined his father's business full-time in 1977 and in 1984 became President and Chief Executive Officer of the then two-store chain. In November 1997, we reincorporated as a Delaware corporation, and in April 1999 we changed our name to DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. Our executive office is located at 345 Court Street, Coraopolis, Pennsylvania 15108 and our phone number is (724) 273-3400. Our website is located at dicks.com. The information on our website does not constitute a part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We include on the investor relations portion of our website (dicks.com/investors), free of charge, copies of our Annual and Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified, any reference to “year” is to the Company’s fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January each year. Business Strategy Since 1948, our Company has believed in the power of sports to change lives, and we are committed to bringing this belief to life through our athlete experience, brand engagement, differentiated product, and most importantly, our teammates. With this belief as our foundation, our common purpose is to create confidence and excitement by inspiring, supporting, and personally equipping all athletes to achieve their dreams. Driven by this common purpose and our commitment to all athletes, our mission is to: • • Create an environment where passionate and skilled teammates thrive; Create and build leading brands that serve and inspire athletes; • Make a lasting impact on communities through sport; and • Deliver shareholder value through growth and relentless improvement. We believe that through this mission and the following key elements of our business strategy, we can be the best sports company in the world. Reimagining the Athlete Experience We put our athletes at the center of everything we do, and we are committed to creating a unique and differentiated shopping experience for them. We seek to proactively manage our in-stock merchandise positions in our diverse category portfolio and elevate our merchandise presentation to provide a clear point of view for in-demand items, such as our premium full-service footwear departments, which are offered in nearly two-thirds of our DICK’S Sporting Goods stores as of the end of fiscal 2022. We provide a wide range of in-store support services and incorporate experiential elements and technology into our stores to better engage and serve our athletes, including our HitTrax® baseball simulators in nearly 200 stores and our investment in Trackman technology, which is used to enhance the fitting and lesson experience for our athletes in all of our Golf Galaxy stores. We also offer soccer shops in nearly 200 stores, which feature enhanced in-store elements including an elevated cleat shop, an expanded selection of licensed jerseys and soccer trial cages in select locations, which are all supported by especially trained in-store soccer experts to help better serve our athletes. We develop and test new store prototypes and concepts to grow our business, while incorporating key learnings into the rest of our chain. Since fiscal 2021, we have opened three DICK’S House of Sport stores, which are built around experience, service, community and product. In fiscal 2023, we plan to open nine additional DICK’S House of Sport stores, which will provide experiential destinations for our athletes, drive strong engagement with our key brand partners, and continue to set us apart as a clear market leader of the sporting goods industry. In fiscal 2021, we also launched our redesigned Golf Galaxy Performance Centers, which are equipped with Trackman and Biomech golf technologies and include an elevated staffing and service model to ensure our teammates become trusted advisors to golf enthusiasts of all levels. In addition to innovating within our core business, we launched Public Lands, an omni-channel specialty concept for our outdoor athletes, in fiscal 2021. We continue to improve our service and selling culture, with an emphasis on engaging and inspiring our athletes. We provide our teammates with robust training to increase knowledge about our products, which builds confidence for our athletes through the power of our opinion and expertise. We equip our teammates with current technology to improve their productivity and enhance the athlete experience, including providing real-time product information, detailed product descriptions, inventory availability and alternative product recommendations as well as other metrics and communications while on the sales floor. 4 Our marketing program is focused on inspiring athletes to participate in sports and building loyalty to DICK’S Sporting Goods through brand-building campaigns, including the expansion of our ScoreCard Rewards loyalty program. In fiscal 2019, we launched ScoreCard Gold, which provides our top-tier athletes with more ways to earn ScoreCard points and member-only benefits, including early access to sales and product launches. Our loyalty program has over 25 million active members who account for over 70% of total sales, which includes 7 million active Gold athletes who account for 40% of total sales. As of the end of fiscal 2022, we had over 150 million athletes in our database, including over 20 million new athletes in the past three years who skewed younger and more female. We leverage the robust data in our database to enhance the athlete experience by engaging our athletes through digital marketing and providing them with personalized offers and communications. We also use data science to improve the speed at which we deliver products to our athletes through optimized order routing and to enhance our in-stock and merchandise availability positions. Our GameChanger mobile app has also provided an opportunity for us to innovate within youth sports technology and connect with athletes and their communities by offering video streaming, highlights and scorekeeping for youth sports programs. Optimizing Our Assortment to Meet the Needs of All Athletes We carry a full range of products within each category, including premium items for the sports enthusiast. We believe our compelling industry-leading product assortment in each sporting goods category offers our athletes a wide range of good, better and best price points and enables us to address the needs of our athletes, from beginner to sports enthusiast, which distinguishes us from other large format sporting goods stores. We focus on those growth categories in which we believe an opportunity to gain market share exists. We support these growth categories, which have recently included the apparel, footwear, golf, and team sports categories, with greater quantities of enthusiast product and improved presentation and in-stock positions. We deliver a differentiated multi-brand experience to our athletes through our offering of national and vertical brands. National brands We carry a wide variety of well-known brands, including but not limited to adidas, Asics, Brooks, Callaway Golf, Carhartt, Columbia, Easton, Hoka, Nike, On, Patagonia, Peloton, TaylorMade, The North Face, Titleist, Under Armour and Yeti. Our ability to showcase an entire brand portfolio is valued by our strategic partners, and our relationships with key brands provide access to wider, deeper and exclusive product offerings that provide authenticity and credibility to our athletes and that further differentiate us from our competitors. During fiscal 2021, we also partnered with Nike to provide a connected marketplace in our DICK’S mobile app which gives our athletes access to exclusive product, experiences and content. Vertical brands Our vertical brands include brands that we own across hardlines and softlines and are available exclusively in our stores and online such as Alpine Design, CALIA, DSG, ETHOS, Fitness Gear, MAXFLI, Nishiki, Quest, Top-Flite, VRST, and Walter Hagen, as well as brands that we license from third parties including adidas (baseball and football) and Prince (tennis). These brands offer high-quality, on-trend products to our athletes with compelling technical and performance attributes while providing differentiation in our merchandise assortment at higher gross margins as compared to sales of similar products from national brands. Our vertical brands are our second largest brand category, representing $1.7 billion, or approximately 14%, of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2022. We consider our vertical brand strategy to be a key area of opportunity to increase productivity in our stores and online, and we have invested in a research, development and procurement staff to support its growth. Our Improving Omni-channel Platform and Fulfillment Capabilities We believe that when our athletes connect with the DICK’S Sporting Goods brand, they expect a seamless shopping experience, regardless of the manner in which they choose to shop with us. Like our athletes, we view retail as an omni-channel experience that seamlessly integrates our stores and online channels. 5 Our stores remain at the core of our omni-channel platform. We believe our store base gives us a competitive advantage over our online-only competitors, as our physical presence allows us to better serve our athletes by creating strong engagement through interactive in-store elements, offering the convenience of accepting in-store returns or exchanges and expediting fulfillment of eCommerce orders, the ability to place online orders in our stores if we are out of stock in the retail store, buy- online, pick-up in store, curbside pickup and return, and same-day delivery capabilities with Instacart or DoorDash, all while offering direct, live access to well-trained and knowledgeable teammates. In fiscal 2022, approximately 70% of online sales were fulfilled directly by our stores, which serve as localized points of distribution, and they enabled 90% of our total sales through online fulfillment and in-person sales. We continually improve the functionality and performance of our eCommerce sites and mobile app, which has included a faster and more convenient checkout process with new payment options, greater visibility and accuracy of delivery dates, improved page responsiveness, enhanced integration of our ScoreCard loyalty program, new content development through our Pro Tips platform and localized website experiences. Additionally, we continue to leverage our omni-channel platform, fulfillment centers and our delivery partnership with FedEx, which have enabled us to provide our athletes with faster delivery times. In fiscal 2022, we invested in our digital experience by expanding our personalization capabilities and other features, and we plan to continue building enhancements on those features to assist our athletes in finding the right product, at the right time. We also plan to continue investing in in-store technology to further enhance fulfillment efficiency with intelligence to improve in-stocks and merchandise availability, and by improving our speed to athletes with optimized order routing. Merchandising The following table sets forth the approximate percentage of our sales attributable to the following categories for the fiscal years presented: Category Hardlines (1) Apparel Footwear (2) Other (3) Total 2022 Fiscal Year 2021 2020 40 % 34 % 24 % 2 % 100 % 44 % 34 % 21 % 1 % 100 % 46 % 33 % 19 % 2 % 100 % (1) (2) (3) Includes items such as sporting goods equipment, fitness equipment, golf equipment and hunting and fishing gear. Includes athletic shoes for running, walking, tennis, fitness and cross training, basketball and hiking. In addition, this category also includes specialty footwear, including casual footwear and a complete line of cleats for team sports. Includes our non-merchandise sales categories, including in-store services, shipping revenues, software subscription revenues and credit card processing revenues. Additional information about our sales categories is included within Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 1–Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Selling Channels We offer products to our athletes through our retail stores and online, and although we sell through both of these channels, we believe that sales in one channel are not independent of the other. Regardless of the sales channel, we seek to provide our athletes with a seamless omni-channel shopping experience. Retail Stores Our DICK’S Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy and other specialty concept stores, including Public Lands, are designed to create an exciting and interactive shopping environment for the sporting enthusiast that highlights our extensive product assortments and value-added services. Each of our DICK’S Sporting Goods stores unites several sports specialty stores under one roof and typically contains the following specialty shops: Team Sports, Athletic Apparel, Outdoor, Golf, Fitness and Footwear. We believe our “store-within-a-store” concept creates a unique shopping environment by combining the convenience, broad assortment and competitive prices of large format stores with the brand names, differentiated product selection and customer service of a specialty store. We monitor and evaluate store performance on an ongoing basis and reallocate space in our stores to categories and products that we believe can drive sales growth, including our removal of the hunt department from many of our stores, in which we reallocated product space to a localized assortment of categories. In addition, we operate Going Going Gone! and Warehouse Sale stores, through which we are able to improve our clearance optimization through the consolidation of clearance inventory for omni-channel selling opportunities to better serve our value athletes. 6 We seek to expand our presence through the opening of new stores and believe that growing our store network and eCommerce business simultaneously will enable us to profitably grow the business by delivering an omni-channel shopping experience for our athletes. Approximately three-quarters of our DICK’S Sporting Goods stores will be up for lease renewal at our option over the next five years, which provides us with the opportunity to relocate, close, or renegotiate lease terms for these stores. In recent years, we have opportunistically opened new stores in under-penetrated markets and leveraged the significant flexibility within our existing real estate portfolio to capitalize on real estate opportunities as leases came up for renewal. While we plan to continue to leverage this flexibility to capitalize on future real estate opportunities, we plan to grow our square footage footprint in the upcoming year. Over the long-term, our DICK’S House of Sport stores will be the primary driver of this growth. eCommerce Through our websites, we seek to provide our athletes with in-depth product information and the ability to shop with us at any time. We continue to innovate our eCommerce sites and applications with customer experience enhancements, new releases of our mobile and tablet apps, and the development of omni-channel capabilities that further integrate our online presence with our brick and mortar stores to provide our athletes with an omni-channel shopping experience. Currently, we have return-to-store capabilities for online orders, the ability to place online orders in our stores if we are out of stock in the retail store, buy-online, pick-up in store, and curbside pickup and return capabilities. Our websites also give us the ability to ship online orders from our retail locations, which reduces delivery times for online orders and improves inventory productivity and availability. Purchasing, Distribution and Customer Fulfillment During fiscal 2022, we purchased merchandise from approximately 1,500 vendors, with Nike, our largest vendor, representing approximately 23% of our merchandise purchases. No other vendor represented 10% or more of our fiscal 2022 merchandise purchases. We do not have long-term purchase contracts with any of our vendors; all of our purchases from vendors are made on a short-term purchase order basis. We currently operate five regional distribution centers which enable us to supply stores with merchandise. Vendors ship floor- ready merchandise to our distribution centers, where it is processed and allocated directly to our stores or stored temporarily. Our distribution centers are responsible for consolidating damaged or defective merchandise from our stores that is being returned to vendors. We have contracted with common carriers to deliver merchandise from all of our distribution centers to our stores, which generally facilitates prompt and efficient distribution to our stores to enhance in-stocks, minimize freight costs and improve inventory turnover. During fiscal 2022, our stores received over 90% of their merchandise through our distribution network; the remaining merchandise was shipped directly to our stores from our vendors. We leverage our store and distribution center network, two eCommerce fulfillment centers (one owned and one operated by a third-party, which we exited in February 2023) and direct shipping capabilities from our vendors to ensure merchandise delivery speed to our athletes and to minimize shipping costs. During fiscal 2022, we also maintained offsite storage locations following the supply chain disruptions caused by COVID-19. Competition The competition among retailers that sell sporting goods is highly fragmented. We compete with many retail formats, including large format sporting goods stores, traditional sporting goods stores, specialty stores, mass merchants and department stores, online retailers, and vendors selling directly to consumers through retail stores and online. We seek to attract athletes by offering a wide range of products that enable us to address the needs of all athletes, from beginner to enthusiast, and by utilizing distinctive merchandise presentation in stores to create a unique shopping environment. We differentiate ourselves from our competitors by showcasing our and key partners’ brands through brand shops and giving access to wider, deeper and exclusive product offerings that provide authenticity and credibility to our athletes. We believe our store base gives us a competitive advantage over our online-only competitors, as our physical presence allows us to better serve our athletes by creating strong engagement. We also offer superior service both in-store and via a seamless omni-channel experience which includes buy- online, pick-up in store and curbside pickup and return capabilities. Seasonality Our business is subject to seasonal influences, including the holiday selling season and the impact of unseasonable weather conditions. Although our highest sales and operating income results have historically occurred in the second and fourth fiscal quarters, our business has increasingly been less affected by seasonal fluctuations in recent years. However, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the fiscal year. 7 Proprietary Rights We have a number of service marks and trademarks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, including various versions of the following: “Alpine Design”, “CALIA”, “DICK’S”, “DICK’S Sporting Goods”, “DSG”, “ETHOS”, “Fitness Gear”, “GameChanger”, “Golf Galaxy”, “The GolfWorks”, “MAXFLI”, “Monarch”, “Nishiki”, “Primed”, “Public Lands”, “Quest”, “ScoreCard”, “ScoreRewards”, “Top-Flite”, “VRST” and “Walter Hagen”.

Our licenses are also subject to general risks and uncertainties common to licensing arrangements that are described within Item 1A. “Risk Factors”. Governmental Regulations We must comply with various federal, state and local regulations, including regulations relating to consumer products and consumer protection, advertising and marketing, labor and employment, data protection and privacy, intellectual property, the environment and tax. In addition, in connection with the sale of firearms in our stores, we must comply with a number of federal and state laws and regulations related to the sale of firearms and ammunition. Ensuring our compliance with these various laws and regulations, and keeping abreast of changes to the legal and regulatory landscape present in our industry, may cause us to expend considerable resources. For additional information, see the risk factors herein in “Item IA. Risk Factors.” Social Responsibility In addition to our mission of supporting our athletes to achieve their dreams, we are committed to supporting youth sports in local communities. We sponsor thousands of teams in various sports and support the philanthropic efforts of our private corporate foundation, The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation. In partnership with The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation, in 2014 we launched our Sports Matter initiative, a philanthropic effort singularly focused on supporting youth sports. Through Sports Matter, we remain committed to addressing the barriers of participation in youth sports, including accessibility of equipment, safe recreational space to play, league costs to maintain youth sports programs in local communities and family registration fees often required for youth sport participation. Since the establishment of the Sports Matter initiative, the Company and The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation have committed over $170 million to help save thousands of youth sports teams and give more than one million young athletes across all 50 states the chance to play. We also support The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation in expanding economic opportunities in local communities through programs established for education and the outdoors. During 2021, the DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation entered into a long- term partnership with a public school district located outside of Pittsburgh, PA to help serve the needs of students, families and staff in the community and create access to holistic resources and programming to support their education and well-being. Additionally, in partnership with The DICK’S Sporting Goods Foundation, we established the Public Lands Fund in 2021, which provides grants to local and national non-profit organizations that protect and maintain public lands, break down the barriers of access to outdoor experiences, and improve inclusion and equity in the outdoors. We are also dedicated to supporting our teammates professionally and personally, as they are the core of our organization. In 2021, we established the Teammate Relief Fund, a public charity that provides financial support to teammates and their immediate families facing unexpected financial difficulty beyond their control. The Teammate Relief Fund is available to all DICK’S teammates and is funded by DICK’S Sporting Goods and teammate donations. Human Capital Management As of January 28, 2023, we employed approximately 18,800 full-time and 34,000 part-time teammates. Total employment figures fluctuate throughout the year and typically peak during the fourth quarter in alignment with the holiday selling season. None of our teammates are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. 8 As stated in our mission, we strive to create an environment where dedicated, optimistic, authentic and high-integrity teammates thrive. We believe our teammates’ dedication to creating a positive experience for our athletes is what drives our success as a company, and we are committed to creating a great place to work for our teammates through competitive wages and benefits, promoting teammate safety, health and well-being, providing learning and career development opportunities and promoting diversity, equity and inclusion. Wages and Benefits In addition to offering our teammates competitive salaries and wages, we offer comprehensive health and retirement benefits to eligible teammates, which typically include all full-time hourly and salaried teammates. Our benefits include, but are not limited to, medical, dental, vision, disability and life insurance, flexible paid time off programs covering parental and family leave, hybrid work arrangements, and a company-matched retirement savings 401(k) plan that vests immediately and is open for all teammates. We are committed to equal pay for equal work independent of gender and race when establishing and maintaining wages. We achieved and maintained 100% female-to-male unadjusted median pay ratio in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021. Safety, Health and Well-Being We are committed to ensuring the safety, health and well-being of our teammates. We have robust policies, procedures and training in place to ensure a safe environment across our organization, including a comprehensive crisis management plan that allows us to respond immediately to critical incidents involving people, company assets, our business or our reputation. We provide support to our teammates to enable them to maintain and improve their professional and personal lives, which includes an employee assistance plan, an onsite health and fitness center, and a childcare facility at our corporate headquarters, which we refer to as our Customer Support Center (“CSC”). We also provide opportunities for volunteerism and launched our Teammate Relief Fund to offer additional support to our teammates experiencing hardship. Training and Development We empower our teammates to develop their careers and provide tools that are necessary for them to reach their personal and professional goals. We have created rotational development programs in various functional disciplines to develop leadership pipelines and offer various live and recorded training programs across the organization based on job role and function, including safety, compliance, leadership or other skills, as well as store manager onboarding programs. We also provide tuition reimbursement programs for all eligible teammates to pursue a job-related degree at an accredited college or university, and we offer a part-time MBA program online in partnership with a local university. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion We are committed to creating a workplace environment and culture that supports, celebrates and honors each individual and to promoting inclusion for all teammates. Doing so strengthens our ability to serve all of our athletes, drives innovation and growth, and enables us to attract and retain the best talent. Our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Council, formed in 2019, is comprised of a group of teammates from across our organization who represent diverse backgrounds, roles, experiences and communities, and was formed to help steer and support our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. Teammates with shared interests have come together in various resource groups to discuss shared experiences, increase awareness, offer mentorship to others and communicate with senior management. We use the feedback provided by our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Council, various resource groups, and other surveys provided to our teammates to foster an inclusive workplace. We have committed to increasing diversity at all levels of our organization. Consistent with this commitment, our Board of Directors includes women and people of color and reflects a diversity of background and experience in varying substantive areas relevant to our operations and industry. 9 Information About Our Executive Officers The following table and accompanying narrative sets forth the name, age and business experience of our current Executive Officers as of March 1, 2023: Name Edward W.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS Risks Related to Our Industry and Macroeconomic Conditions Macroeconomic conditions may adversely affect consumer discretionary spending and our business, operations, liquidity, and financial results. Our business depends on consumer discretionary spending, which can be adversely affected by many factors outside of the Company’s control, including general economic conditions, such as inflation; recessionary pressures; changes in consumer disposable income; consumer confidence and perception of economic conditions, including the instability in the banking sector; the threat or outbreak of war, terrorism or public unrest (including, without limitation, the conflict in Ukraine) which may cause supply chain disruptions, increase fuel and transportation costs and the cost of materials, and create general economic instability; wage and unemployment levels; consumer debt and inflationary pressures; the costs of basic necessities and other goods; interest rates; effects of weather and natural disasters caused by climate change or otherwise; and epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks, and other public health concerns (including but not limited to the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic). Decreases in consumer discretionary spending may result in a decrease in comparable sales, which might cause us to utilize pricing strategies that will have a negative impact on our gross margins, all of which could negatively affect our financial results, particularly if consumer spending levels are depressed for a prolonged period of time. To the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely affect our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described herein, including risks relating to the changes in consumer demand or shopping patterns. Intense competition in the sporting goods industry and in retail could limit our growth and reduce our profitability. The market for sporting goods retailers is highly fragmented, intensely competitive, and continually evolving. We compete with retailers from multiple categories and in multiple channels, including large formats; traditional and specialty formats; mass merchants; department stores; internet-based and direct-sell retailers; and increasingly from vendors that sell directly to customers. Our competitors include companies that have greater market presence (both brick and mortar and online), name recognition and financial, marketing, and other resources than we do. An inability to successfully respond to competitive pressures could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations or reputation. Further, the ability of consumers to compare prices in real-time puts additional pressure on us to maintain competitive pricing. If we are unsuccessful in our varied marketing and advertising strategies, especially via online and social media platforms, we could lose athletes and sales could decline. Fluctuations in product costs and availability due to inflationary pressures, fuel price uncertainty, supply chain constraints, increases in commodity prices, labor shortages and other factors could negatively impact our business and results of operations. Our product costs are affected, in part, by the costs and availability of component materials. A substantial increase in the prices of raw materials or commodities used in the products we sell, whether due to material shortages, supply chain disruptions or otherwise could increase the costs associated with manufacturing our products and the products that we purchase from our vendors. Significant increases in the prices of raw materials and commodities and our ability to pass these increases on to our athletes or manage increased costs by other means may affect our sales and profitability. We rely upon third-party transportation to deliver products from vendors and our manufacturing facilities to our distribution centers, from our distribution centers to our stores, and directly to our athletes using our omni-channel platform. Consequently, our results may be adversely affected by those factors impacting transportation, including the price of fuel and the availability of aircraft, ships, trucks, and drivers. The price of fuel and demand for transportation services has fluctuated significantly in recent years and has resulted in increased transportation costs for us and our vendors. 11 Labor and employee shortages in the transportation industry could negatively affect transportation costs and our ability to supply our stores in a timely manner. Our business also is highly dependent on the shipping and trucking industry to deliver products to our distribution centers and our stores. Our results of operations may be adversely affected if we, or our vendors, are unable to secure adequate transportation resources at competitive prices to fulfill our delivery schedules to our distribution centers or our stores. Further, difficulties in moving products manufactured overseas and through the ports of North America, whether due to port congestion, government shutdowns, labor disputes, product regulations and/or inspections or other factors, including natural disasters, health pandemics or other global conflicts, could negatively affect our business. A significant amount of our products are manufactured abroad, which subjects us to various international risks and costs, including foreign trade issues, currency exchange rate fluctuations, shipment delays and supply chain disruptions, and political instability, which could cause our sales and profitability to suffer. Many of the products that we purchase as well as most of our vertical brand merchandise, are manufactured abroad. Foreign imports subject us to risk relating to changes in import duties quotas, the introduction of U.S. taxes on imported goods or the extension of U.S. income taxes on our foreign suppliers’ sales of imported goods through the adoption of destination-based income tax jurisdiction, loss of “most favored nation” status with the U.S., freight cost increases and economic and political uncertainties. We may also experience shipment delays caused by shipping port constraints, labor strikes, work stoppages, acts of war, and terrorism, or other supply chain disruptions, including those caused by extreme weather, natural disasters, and pandemics and other public health concerns, including ongoing supply chain and manufacturing issues whether caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine, or otherwise. If any of these or other factors, including trade tensions between the U.S. and foreign nations, including China and Russia, were to cause a disruption of trade from the countries in which our vendors’ supplies or our vertical brand products’ manufacturers are located, our inventory levels may be reduced and/or the cost of our products may increase. We may need to seek alternative suppliers or vendors, raise prices, or make changes to our operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability, results of operations and financial condition. Also, the prices charged by foreign manufacturers may be affected by the fluctuation of their local currency against the U.S. dollar and the price of raw materials, which could cause the cost of our products to increase and negatively impact our sales or profitability. Risks Related to Our Operations and Reputation If we are unable to predict or effectively react to changes in consumer demand or shopping patterns, we may lose athletes and our sales may decline. Our success depends in part on our ability to anticipate and respond in a timely manner to changing consumer demand, preferences and trends, and shopping patterns, which are subject to continual change and evolution. We have adopted a fully omni-channel business model, as we strive to deliver a seamless shopping experience to our athletes through both online and in- store shopping experiences. For example, we must meet athletes’ expectations with respect to, among other things, creating appealing and consistent online experiences while also offering localized assortments of merchandise to appeal to local geographic and demographic tastes; offering differentiated and premium products and regionally relevant products; delivering elevated customer service; and providing desirable in-store experiences, fast, accurate and reliable delivery and pick-up, and convenient return options. Our athletes have expectations about how they shop in stores or through eCommerce or more generally engage with businesses across different channels or media (through online and other digital or mobile channels or particular forms of social media), which may vary across demographics and may evolve rapidly. If we are unable to provide an omni-channel shopping experience across all channels that aligns with our athletes’ expectations and preferences, it could have an adverse impact on the results of our operations. We often make advanced commitments to purchase products, which may make it more difficult for us to adapt to rapidly- evolving changes in consumer preferences and trends. The COVID-19 pandemic created a shift in consumer demand, resulting in an increase in demand in certain categories due to the renewed interest and perceived importance of health and fitness, participation in socially-distant and outdoor activities, and a shift toward athletic apparel and active lifestyle products. It is uncertain whether or the extent to which these trends will continue now that the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided or if another pandemic or similar public health event would have the same positive or negative impact. Furthermore, ongoing supply chain challenges as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine, and other factors have made it more difficult to obtain certain in-demand products. Our sales could decline significantly if we misjudge the market for our new merchandise, which may result in significant merchandise markdowns and lower margins, missed opportunities for other products, and inventory write-downs. 12 Our vertical brand offerings and new specialty concept stores expose us to potential increased costs and certain additional risks. We develop and offer our athletes vertical brand products that are not available from other retailers and expend considerable resources to develop new brands. Unexpected or increased costs or delays in development of the brand, excessive demands on management resources, legal or regulatory constraints, changes in consumer demands and shopping patterns regarding sporting goods, or a determination that consumer demand no longer supports the brand could cause us to curtail or abandon any of our new brands at any time which could result in asset impairments and inventory write-downs. Additional risks relating to our vertical brand offerings include increased potential product liability and product recalls for which we do not have third-party indemnification and contractual rights or remedies (including product safety concerns); increased reputational risks related to the responsible domestic and international sourcing of our vertical brand products; increased costs for labor or raw materials used to manufacture products; our ability to successfully protect our proprietary rights (e.g., defending against counterfeit or unauthorized goods); our ability to successfully navigate and avoid claims related to the proprietary rights of third parties; our ability to anticipate consumer trends and styles; and our ability to utilize talent and other generational advertising techniques to reach the relevant market specific to each vertical brand. We also may develop and introduce new store concepts and formats or expand upon existing formats, which may require considerable resources, and there is no assurance that these initiatives will be successful. We have included a variety of other experiential opportunities in our current store concept offerings, such as climbing walls, fields, ice rinks, and other in-person activations. Issues that may pose potential risks for our new store concepts and formats include: increased potential liability for bodily injury to athletes or teammates; increased liability for property damage; increased costs for implementing, installing, building, repairing, and maintaining our experiential concepts or creating new concepts; our ability to attract and retain teammates with specific skill sets as it relates to experiential concepts; our ability to anticipate consumer trends or engaging activities; increased reputational risks related to community involvement, giving, and other activations at a localized level; increased risk related to competitors attempting to create similar concepts to gain market share; and our ability to successfully administer and comply with obligations under license agreements that we have with third-party licensors of certain brands. Harm to our reputation could adversely impact our ability to attract and retain athletes and teammates. Negative publicity or perceptions involving us or our brands, products, vendors, foreign manufacturers, spokespersons, or marketing and other partners, or failure to detect, prevent, mitigate or address issues giving rise to reputational risk could adversely impact our reputation, business, results of operations, and financial condition, and may adversely impact our ability to attract and retain athletes and teammates. Issues that might pose a reputational risk include: an inability to provide an omni- channel experience that meets the expectations of consumers; failure of our cyber-security measures to protect against data breaches; product liability, recalls, and boycotts; our handling of issues relating to environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) matters, including our response to ESG matters and the transparency of our progress toward ESG goals and initiatives; our social media activity; failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations (including those in other countries where we manufacture goods); our policies related to the sale of firearms and accessories; public stances on controversial social or political issues; product sponsorship relationships, including those with celebrity spokespersons, influencers and other partnerships or group affiliations; our real estate strategy and selection of new store openings or relocations; concerns surrounding labor, environmental, workplace safety and other practices that may vary from U.S. standards in any of our foreign manufacturers, whether directly or indirectly; and any of the other risks enumerated in these risk factors. Furthermore, the prevalence of social media and a constant, on-demand news cycle may accelerate and in the short-term increase the potential scope of any negative publicity we or others might receive and could increase the negative impact of these issues on our reputation, business, results of operations, and financial condition. Our strategic plans and initiatives may initially result in a negative impact on our financial results and such plans and initiatives may not achieve the desired results within the anticipated time frame or at all. Our ability to successfully implement and execute our strategic plans and initiatives depends on many factors, some of which are out of our control. Our focus on long-term strategic investments, including investments in our digital capabilities, our eCommerce platform, improvements to the athlete experience in our stores and online, our supply chain, enhancements to our ScoreCard loyalty program, the continued development of our vertical brands and specialty concepts (including but not limited to store remodels, experiential concepts and relocations), and improving teammate productivity, may require significant capital investment and management attention at the expense of other business initiatives and may take longer than anticipated to achieve the desired return. Additionally, any new initiative is subject to certain risks, including athlete acceptance, competition, product differentiation, and the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel to support the initiative. 13 An inability to execute our real estate strategy could affect our financial results. Our financial performance depends on our ability to optimize our retail real estate portfolio, including opening new stores and relocating existing stores in desirable locations, and, where appropriate, consolidating the stores serving particular markets to maximize efficiencies; opportunistically purchasing real estate in compelling long-term or barrier-to-entry markets or assets; renewing leases for existing stores, restructuring leases for existing stores to obtain more favorable renewal terms; refreshing and remodeling existing stores; if necessary, closing underperforming and poorly located stores; and where appropriate, repurposing real estate holdings to provide specialty banner opportunities or ancillary retail support to the stores in the market. There is no assurance that we will be able to locate desirable real estate for new stores or relocations of existing stores, or that an existing store will continue to be profitable in its current location. Additionally, our ability to negotiate favorable lease terms or purchase terms on a new store location or a relocation of an existing store, or in connection with an expiring lease, remodel, consolidation, or closing depends on conditions in the real estate market, competition for desirable properties, our relationships with current and prospective landlords and shopping center operators, construction costs, the availability of labor and materials, and other factors that are not within our control. We may incur costs that are excessive and cause operating margins to be below acceptable levels if we are unable to negotiate appropriate terms. If an existing store is not profitable, we might be required to record an impairment charge and we may not be able to terminate the lease or sell the real estate associated with the underperforming store. Further, closing stores generally result in certain short-term economic consequences, such as, ongoing rent payment obligations or other expenses for the balance of the lease term or ownership period, termination charges in connection with a lease or, if the property is owned, costs, expenses and losses in connection with a sale. We may remain liable for certain post-assignment or sublease obligations if the assignee, sublessee or tenant, as applicable, does not perform. Furthermore, the success of our stores depends on several factors including the sustained success of the shopping center where the store is located, consumer demographics, and consumer shopping habits and patterns. Changes in consumer shopping habits and patterns, reduced customer traffic in the shopping centers where our stores are located, financial difficulties of our landlords, or the shopping center operators, anchor tenants or a significant number of other retailers, and shopping center vacancies or closures, could impact the profitability of our stores and increase the likelihood that our landlords or the shopping centers operators fail to fulfill their obligations and conditions under our lease agreements or governing documents. We may need to respond to declines in customer traffic or conversion rates by increasing markdowns or promotions to attract athletes, which could adversely impact our financial results. Our business relies on our distribution and fulfillment network and our customer support center. An inability to optimize this network or a disruption to the network, including delays or failures by independent third-party transportation providers, could cause us to lose merchandise, be unable to effectively deliver merchandise to our stores and athletes, and could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. The ability to optimize our distribution and fulfillment network, which includes our owned and leased distribution centers and eCommerce fulfillment center, and our stores that serve as forward distribution points, and avoid disruptions, depends on a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including severe weather conditions, natural disasters, pandemics or other catastrophic events, problems with our information technology systems, labor or employee disagreements, supply chain disruptions or other shipping problems, and general economic and real estate conditions. We may not be able to maintain our existing distribution and fulfillment network if the cost of the facilities increase or the location of a facility is no longer desirable. In those cases, we may not be able to locate suitable alternative sites or modify or enter into new leases on acceptable terms. Furthermore, we may need to locate new sites for additional eCommerce fulfillment centers to satisfy omni-channel demand. If we cannot locate suitable locations for these fulfillment centers on acceptable terms, we will need to increase reliance on our store network, third-party logistic fulfillment centers, our distribution centers, and vendors to help meet our fulfillment needs. An inability to optimize our distribution and fulfillment network, including the expiration of a lease or an unexpected lease termination at one of our facilities (without timely replacement of the applicable facility) or serious disruptions (including natural disasters or closures of distribution and fulfillment centers) at any of these facilities might impair our ability to adequately stock our stores, process returns of products to vendors and fulfill eCommerce orders at the speed expected by athletes, increase costs associated with shipping and delivery, damage a material portion of our inventory, and otherwise negatively affect our operations, sales, profitability, and reputation. 14 In addition, we rely on independent third-party transportation providers for substantially all of our merchandise shipments, including shipments to our stores and directly to athletes through our eCommerce platform. If we change shipping companies, we could face logistical difficulties that could adversely impact deliveries and we would incur costs and expend resources in connection with such change. Moreover, we may not be able to obtain terms as favorable as those received from the independent third-party transportation providers we currently use, which could have a material adverse impact on our business. Unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential athlete, teammate, vendor or Company information could result in substantial costs and reputational damage, harm our business and standing with our athletes and could subject us to litigation and enforcement actions. The protection of our data, including athlete and teammate data, is critical. We collect, receive, store, manage, transmit and delete confidential athlete data, including payment card and personally identifiable information, in the normal course of customer transactions, as well as other confidential and sensitive information, such as personal information about our teammates and our vendors, and confidential Company information. We also work with third-party vendors and service providers that provide technology, systems and services that we use in connection with the collection, storage and transmission of this information. We have implemented and regularly review and update our systems, processes, and procedures to protect against unauthorized access to or use of data and to prevent data loss. Although we have taken measures to protect athlete and others’ confidential information, the intentional or negligent actions of third parties, business associates or teammates may undermine our existing security measures and allow unauthorized parties to obtain access to our data systems and misappropriate confidential data. While we have no knowledge of any material data security breaches to date, any compromise of our data security could result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws or standards, significant legal and financial exposure beyond the scope or limits of our insurance coverage, interruption of our operations, increased operating costs associated with remediation, equipment acquisitions or disposal, added personnel, and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business, reputation or investor confidence. Further, the data privacy and cyber-security regulatory environment is constantly changing, with new and increasingly rigorous and complex requirements. Maintaining our compliance with those requirements, including state consumer privacy laws, may require significant effort and cost, require changes to our business practices, and limit our ability to obtain data used to provide a personalized customer experience. In addition, failure to comply with applicable requirements could subject us to fines, sanctions, governmental investigations, lawsuits or reputational damage. Problems with our information systems could disrupt our operations and negatively impact our financial results and materially adversely affect our business operations. We utilize several third-party information systems for core system needs of our business, including our use of an independent service provider for electronic payment processing. If any of these systems fail to function properly, it could disrupt our operations, including our ability to track, record and analyze the merchandise that we sell, process shipments of goods, process financial information or credit card transactions, deliver products or engage in similar normal business activities. If any of these independent service providers become unwilling or unable to provide these services to us or if the cost of using these providers increases, our business could be harmed. Our information systems, including our back-up systems, are subject to damage or interruption from power outages; computer and telecommunications failures; malicious computer programs; denial-of-service attacks; security breaches (through cyber- attacks from cyber-attackers or sophisticated organizations); catastrophic events; and usage errors by our teammates. Additionally, we have adopted a hybrid remote work environment which relies on the efficiency and functionality of our information systems. If our information systems and our back-up systems are damaged, breached or cease to function properly, we may have to make a significant investment to repair or replace them, and we may suffer loss of critical data and interruptions or delays in our business operations. Any material disruption, malfunction, or other similar problems in or with our core information systems could negatively impact our financial results and materially adversely affect our business operations. We may be unable to attract, train, engage and retain key teammates. Our long-term success and ability to implement our strategic and business planning processes depends on our ability to attract, retain, train and develop key and qualified teammates in all areas of the organization, including store managers and sales associates, teammates who staff our distribution centers, and professionals to implement our technology and other strategic initiatives. Our ability to meet our labor needs while controlling labor costs is subject to numerous external factors, including market pressures with respect to prevailing wage rates, equity compensation, unemployment levels, and health and other insurance costs; the impact of legislation or regulations governing labor and employee relations, immigration, federal and state minimum wage requirements, and benefit costs; changing demographics; and our reputation within the labor market. If we are 15 unable to attract and retain a workforce that meets our needs, our operations, service levels, support functions, and competitiveness could suffer and our results could be adversely affected. The loss of one or more of our key executives or the inability to successfully attract and retain executive officers or implement effective succession planning strategies could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our long-term success and ability to implement our strategic and business planning processes depends in large part on our ability to continue to attract and retain executive management. All teammates, including members of our executive management and key personnel, are at-will employees, and we generally do not maintain key-person life insurance policies on our teammates. The loss of any one our executive management, including our President & Chief Executive Officer, Lauren Hobart, or other key personnel could seriously harm our business. Additionally, effective succession planning for executive management and key personnel is vital to our long-term continued success. Failure to ensure effective transfer of knowledge, maintenance of our culture, setting of strategic direction, and smooth transitions involving executive management and key personnel could hinder our long-term strategies and success. Furthermore, our success depends on continued service from Edward W. Stack, our Executive Chairman, who began operating the Company in 1984 and continues to oversee our merchandising group and key strategic growth initiatives. Mr. Stack possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges that we and the industry face. If Mr. Stack no longer serves a role in our business, our results could be materially adversely affected. The seasonality of our operations, along with the current geographic concentrations of our stores, exposes us to certain risks (including but not limited to extreme weather conditions and/or natural disasters and other catastrophic events). Our business is subject to seasonal influences and certain holidays and sports seasons during the year. Many of our stores are in geographic areas that experience seasonally cold weather, and we sell a significant amount of cold weather sporting goods and apparel. Historically, our highest sales and operating income results have occurred during our second and fourth fiscal quarters, which is partly due to golf and team sports sales during the second quarter and partly due to the winter holiday season and our strong sales of cold weather sporting goods and apparel in the fourth quarter. Results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the fiscal year. Poor performance during a quarter because of slow holiday seasons or unseasonable weather conditions, including unusually warm weather in the winter months or abnormally wet or cold weather in the spring or summer months, whether due to climate change or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results for the entire fiscal year. Furthermore, extreme weather conditions and natural disasters caused by climate change or otherwise and other catastrophic events in the areas in which our stores and/or distribution centers are located could negatively impact consumer shopping patterns, consumer confidence and disposable income, or otherwise could have a negative effect on our financial performance. Natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes, or a combination of these or other factors, could damage or destroy our facilities or make it difficult for customers to travel to our stores. Extreme weather conditions and/or natural disasters, or other catastrophic events in areas where we or our vendors have operations, including our stores and our distribution and eCommerce fulfillment centers, could result in disruption or delay of production and delivery of merchandise and products in our supply chain and cause staffing shortages in our stores, negatively affecting our business and results of operations. We cannot provide any guaranty of future dividend payments or that we will continue to repurchase our common stock pursuant to our stock repurchase program. Any determination to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the future will be based upon our financial condition, results of operations, business requirements, and the continuing determination from our Board of Directors that the declaration of dividends is in the best interests of our stockholders and is in compliance with all laws and agreements applicable to the dividend. Furthermore, although our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program, we are not obligated to make any purchases under the program, and the Board may discontinue the program at any time. Risks Related to Our Class B Common Stock and Other Anti-Takeover Mechanisms We are controlled by holders of our Class B common stock, whose interests may differ from other stockholders. Holders of our Class B common stock, who consist of our Executive Chairman, Mr. Edward W. Stack, his relatives and various trusts established for the benefit of their families, control a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock and Class B common stock and would control the outcome of a vote on any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval. The interests of the holders of Class B common stock may differ from the interests of our other stockholders and they may take actions with which our other stockholders disagree. 16 The issuance of Class B common stock and other anti-takeover mechanisms could prevent or delay a change in control of our Company, even if such change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders. Provisions of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws as well as provisions of Delaware law could discourage, delay, or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control of our Company, even if such change in control would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions include: authorizing the issuance of Class B common stock; authorizing the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by our Board of Directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt; prohibiting the use of cumulative voting for the election of directors; prohibiting stockholder action by partial written consent and requiring all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders or by unanimous written consent if our Class B common stock is no longer outstanding; and establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the Board of Directors or for proposing matters to be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings. In addition, the Delaware General Corporation Law, to which we are subject, prohibits us, except under specified circumstances, from engaging in any mergers, significant sales of stock or assets or business combinations with any stockholder or group of stockholders who owns 15% or more of our common stock. Risks Related to Third Parties and Legal and Regulatory Requirements We depend on our suppliers, distributors and manufacturers to provide us with sufficient quantities of quality products in a timely fashion. In fiscal 2022, we purchased merchandise from approximately 1,500 vendors. Purchases from Nike represented approximately 23% of our total merchandise purchases. Although in fiscal 2022 purchases from no other vendor represented 10% or more of our total purchases, our dependence on suppliers involves risk. We might be unable to obtain merchandise that consumers demand in a timely manner if there are disruptions in our relationships with key suppliers, which could cause our revenue to materially decline. We generally do not have long-term written contracts with our suppliers that would require them to continue supplying us with merchandise. Key vendors may fail to deliver on their commitments or fail to supply us with sufficient products that comply with our safety and quality standards, whether as a result of supply chain disruptions or other causes, or fail to continue to develop new products that create consumer demand. Furthermore, vendors increasingly sell their products directly to customers or through broadened or alternative distribution channels, such as department stores, family footwear stores, or eCommerce companies. Many of our suppliers also provide us with incentives, such as return privileges, volume purchasing allowances and cooperative advertising, which are not guaranteed. A decline or discontinuation of these incentives could reduce or eliminate our profit margins. We are subject to costs and risks associated with laws and regulations affecting our business. We are subject to a wide array of laws and regulations that expose us to compliance and litigation risks that could negatively affect our operations and financial results. Some of the federal, state or local laws and regulations that affect us include those relating to consumer products, product liability and consumer protection; eCommerce, data protection and privacy; advertisement and marketing; labor and employment; taxes, including changes to tax rates and new taxes, tariffs, and surcharges; firearms, ammunition, knives, food items or other regulated products; accounting, corporate governance and securities; custom or import; intellectual property; and environmental and/or climate change. Establishing the necessary internal infrastructure to allow for the monitoring and other compliance requirements required by these new laws and regulations and enforcement efforts requires expenditure of considerable Company resources. To the extent that another pandemic or similar public health event occurs, we could be subject to another period of store closures or other potential governmental regulations, whether at the local, state, or federal level(s) (including requiring a reduction in work force), which would likely have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Our sales and operating results could be adversely affected by product safety concerns. If the products that we offer, whether via national brands or our vertical brands, do not meet applicable safety standards or our athletes’ expectations regarding safety, we could experience decreased sales, increased costs, and/or be exposed to legal and reputational risk. Our vendors must comply with applicable product safety laws, and we are dependent on them to ensure that the products we buy comply with all safety standards. Negative customer perceptions regarding the safety and sourcing of the products we sell, and events that give rise to actual, potential, or perceived product safety concerns could expose us to government enforcement action and/or private litigation. Furthermore, reputational damage caused by real or perceived product safety concerns could have a negative impact on our sales and operating results. 17 We may be subject to various types of litigation and other claims, and our insurance may not be sufficient to cover damages related to those claims. From time-to-time the Company or its subsidiaries may be involved in lawsuits or other claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including those related to federal or state wage and hour laws, product liability, consumer protection, advertising, employment, intellectual property, tort, privacy and data protection, disputes with landlords and vendors due to the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, company policies, and other matters. We may incur losses relating to claims filed against us, including costs associated with defending against such claims, and there is risk that any such claims or liabilities will exceed our insurance coverage, or affect our ability to retain adequate liability insurance in the future. Even if a claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any such assertions could adversely affect our reputation. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and other claims, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such matters. We sell firearms and ammunition in some of our stores. These products are associated with an increased risk of injury and related lawsuits with respect to our compliance with Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (“ATF”) and state laws and regulations. Any improper or illegal use by our athletes of ammunition or firearms sold by us could have a negative impact on our reputation and business. We may incur losses due to lawsuits, including potential class actions, relating to our performance of background checks on firearms purchases and compliance with other sales laws and regulations as mandated by state and federal law and related to our policies on the sale of firearms and ammunition, or due to lawsuits relating to the improper use of firearms or ammunition sold by us, including lawsuits by municipalities or other organizations attempting to recover costs from manufacturers and retailers of firearms and ammunition. Our inability or failure to protect our intellectual property rights or any third parties claiming that we have infringed on their intellectual property rights could negatively impact our brand or have a negative impact on our operating results. Our trademarks, service marks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, domain names and other intellectual property, including exclusive licensing rights, are valuable assets that are critical to our success. Effective trademark and other intellectual property protection may not be available in every country in which our products are manufactured or may be made available. The unauthorized reproduction or other misappropriation of our intellectual property could diminish the value of our brands or goodwill and cause a decline in our revenue. In addition, any infringement or other intellectual property claim made against us could be time-consuming to address, result in costly litigation, cause product delays, require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements or result in our loss of ownership or use of the intellectual property. Changes to tax laws and regulations could adversely affect our financial results or condition. Our effective income tax rates could be unfavorably impacted by several factors, including changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities; other changes in applicable tax laws, regulations, treaties, interpretations, and other guidance, including but not limited to the Inflation Reduction Act; changes in transfer pricing rules; and the outcome of income tax audits in various jurisdictions. Current economic and political considerations make tax rules in the United States and other applicable jurisdictions subject to significant change. Changes in applicable tax laws and regulations, or their interpretation and application, including the possibility of retroactive effect, could affect our income tax expense and profitability. Poor performance of professional sports teams within our core regions of operation, as well as league-wide lockouts, strikes or cancellations, retirement of or serious injury to key athletes or scandals involving such athletes could adversely affect our financial results. We sell a significant amount of professional sports team merchandise, the success of which may be subject to fluctuations based on the success or failure of such teams or their key players. Poor performance by the professional sports teams within our core regions of operations; league-wide lockouts or strikes; and disruptions to, cancellations of, or negative publicity regarding sports leagues and major sporting events could cause our financial results to fluctuate year-over-year. In addition, to the extent we use individual athletes to market our products and advertise our stores or we sell merchandise branded by one or more athletes, the retirement or injury of such athletes or scandals in which they might be implicated could negatively impact our financial results. 18 Risks Related to Our Indebtedness and Strategic Transactions We may pursue strategic alliances, acquisitions or investments and the failure of an alliance, acquisition or investment to produce the anticipated results or the inability to successfully integrate the acquired companies could have an adverse impact on our business. From time-to-time, we may enter into strategic alliances or acquire or invest in complementary companies or businesses. The success of strategic alliances, acquisitions, and investments is based on our ability to make accurate assumptions regarding the valuation, operations, growth potential, integration and other factors relating to such businesses. Strategic alliances, acquisitions, and investments may result in the diversion of capital and our management's attention from other business issues and opportunities. We also may not be able to successfully integrate operations that we acquire, including their personnel, financial systems, supply chain and other operations, which could adversely affect our business. Furthermore, acquisitions may result in dilutive issuances of our equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortization expenses or write- offs of goodwill or other intangibles, any of which could harm our financial condition. There can be no assurance that our strategic alliances, acquisitions, or investments will produce the anticipated results within the expected time frame or at all. Our ability to operate and expand our business and to respond to changing business and economic conditions is dependent upon the availability of adequate capital. In addition to certain restrictions imposed by the terms of existing debt instruments, weakness in the capital markets could also negatively impact our access to capital. The operation and growth of our business and our ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions depend on the availability of adequate capital, which in turn depends on cash flow generated by our business and, if necessary, the availability of equity or debt capital. Our revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) contains provisions that limit certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional unsecured indebtedness, and our Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture that governs our 3.15% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and our 4.10% senior notes due 2052 (the “2052 Notes” and together with the 2032 Notes, the “Senior Notes”) contain provisions that limit the Company’s and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to incur secured indebtedness and our ability to sell all or substantially all of our assets, in each case subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications, the proceeds of which might otherwise be used to finance our operations. In the event of our insolvency, liquidation, dissolution or reorganization, the lenders under our Revolving Credit Facility and the holders of our Senior Notes would be entitled to payment in full from our assets before distributions, if any, were made to our stockholders. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future, and if availability under our Revolving Credit Facility is not sufficient to meet our capital needs, we may have to obtain additional financing. Any future constriction of the credit and public capital markets, including debt markets, or deterioration of our financial condition due to internal or external factors, could restrict or limit our ability to access capital and could increase the cost of financing sources. We may not be able to obtain such refinancing or additional financing on favorable terms or at all. Our liquidity or access to capital could also be adversely affected by unforeseen changes in the financial markets and global economy. Our indebtedness and liabilities could limit the cash flow available for our operations and we may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness. We may be forced to take certain actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness or we may experience a financial failure. Our ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance our debt obligations, including our $575 million of 3.25% convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Senior Notes”), the Notes and our Revolving Credit Facility, will depend on our financial and operating performance. If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets or operations, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness, including the Convertible Senior Notes, the Notes or the Revolving Credit Facility. We may not be able to take any of these actions, these actions may not be successful or may not permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations and these actions may not be permitted under the terms of our future debt agreements. In the absence of sufficient operating results and resources, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions or obtain sufficient proceeds from those dispositions to meet our debt service and other obligations then due. 19 Our current and future indebtedness could have negative consequences for our business, results of operations and financial condition by, among other things: • • • • • • increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions; limiting our ability to obtain additional financing; requiring the dedication of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, which will reduce the amount of cash available for other purposes; limiting our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our business; diluting the interests of our existing stockholders as a result of issuing shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes; and placing us at a possible competitive disadvantage with competitors that are less leveraged than us or have better access to capital. In addition, our Revolving Credit Facility contains certain restrictive covenants, including covenants that limit certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional unsecured indebtedness, and our Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture that governs our Notes contain provisions that limit the Company’s and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to incur secured indebtedness and our ability to sell all or substantially all of our assets, in each case subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications, among other things. Any future indebtedness that we may incur may contain, restrictive covenants that limit our ability to operate our business, raise capital or make payments under our other indebtedness. If we fail to comply with these covenants or to make payments under our indebtedness when due, then we would be in default under that indebtedness, which could, in turn, result in our other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. Provisions in the indenture governing the Convertible Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2032 Notes and the 2052 Notes could delay or prevent an otherwise beneficial takeover of us. Certain provisions in the indenture governing the Convertible Senior Notes and the indenture governing the Notes could make a third-party attempt to acquire us more difficult or expensive. For example, under the indenture governing the Convertible Senior Notes, if a takeover constitutes a fundamental change, then noteholders will have the right to require us to repurchase their Convertible Senior Notes for cash, and if a takeover constitutes a make-whole fundamental change, then we may be required to temporarily increase the conversion rate. Under the indenture governing the Notes, if a takeover results in a change of control triggering event, then noteholders will have the right to require us to repurchase their Notes for cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such notes. In either case, and in other cases, our obligations under the indenture governing the Convertible Senior Notes and the indenture governing the Notes could increase the cost of acquiring us or otherwise discourage a third party from acquiring us or removing incumbent management, including in a transaction that noteholders or holders of our common stock may view as favorable. The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions may affect the value of our common stock. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes, we entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions with the hedge counterparties that cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of common stock that initially underlie the Convertible Senior Notes. Concurrently with the entry into the convertible note hedge transactions, we entered into separate, privately negotiated warrant transactions with the hedge counterparties collectively relating to the same number of shares of our common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, and for which we will receive premiums to partially offset the cost of entering into the hedge transactions. The convertible note hedge transactions are intended to reduce the potential dilution with respect to our common stock or offset any potential cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Convertible Senior Notes, as the case may be, upon any conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes. The warrant transactions could have a dilutive effect with respect to our common stock to the extent that the price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions. In connection with establishing and maintaining their initial hedge positions with respect to the convertible note hedge transactions and the warrant transactions, we understand that the hedge counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions with respect to the convertible note hedge transactions and the warrant transactions from time-to-time by purchasing or selling shares of our common stock or the Convertible Senior Notes in privately negotiated transactions or open-market transactions or by entering into or unwinding various over-the-counter derivative transactions with respect to our common stock. The effect, if any, of these activities on the trading price of our common stock will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, and is uncertain at this time. Any of these activities could, however, adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. 20 We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the convertible note hedge transactions. The hedge counterparties are financial institutions, and we will be subject to the risk that they might default under certain of the convertible note hedge transactions. Our exposure to the credit risk of the hedge counterparties will not be secured by any collateral. Global economic conditions have from time-to-time resulted in the actual or perceived failure or financial difficulties of many financial institutions. If a hedge counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at that time under our transactions with that hedge counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors, but, generally, the increase in our exposure will be correlated to the increase in the market price and in the volatility of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by a hedge counterparty, we may suffer adverse tax consequences and more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurances as to the financial stability or viability of any hedge counterparty. Conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes or exercise of the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders, including noteholders who have previously converted their notes. At our election, we may settle Convertible Senior Notes tendered for conversion entirely or partly in shares of our common stock. Furthermore, the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions are expected to be settled on a net-share basis. As a result, the conversion of some or all of the Convertible Senior Notes or the exercise of some or all of such warrants may dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes or such exercise of the warrants could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the Convertible Senior Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes could depress the price of our common stock. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We lease substantially all of our stores, which generally have initial lease terms of 10 to 15 years and contain multiple five-year renewal options and rent escalation provisions. We believe that our leases, when entered into, are at market rate rents. We generally select a new store site 12 to 24 months before its opening. Our stores are primarily located in shopping centers in regional shopping areas, as well as in freestanding locations and malls. 21 As of January 28, 2023, we operated 853 stores in 47 states. The following table sets forth the number of stores by state: State Alabama Arizona Arkansas California Colorado Connecticut Delaware District of Columbia Florida Georgia Idaho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Nebraska Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York North Carolina North Dakota Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah Vermont Virginia Washington West Virginia Wisconsin Wyoming Total DICK’S Sporting Goods (1) Specialty Concept Stores (2) Total (3) 13 9 4 58 16 11 3 1 48 23 6 32 19 7 10 12 8 4 17 18 22 10 7 13 4 4 7 19 4 43 32 1 38 7 10 39 2 11 1 17 48 5 2 27 16 6 13 1 4 3 — 7 2 3 1 — 8 3 1 5 2 2 2 1 — — 2 4 4 4 — 2 1 2 — 3 — 3 8 — 11 2 2 9 1 2 — 3 9 1 — 5 — — 3 — 17 12 4 65 18 14 4 1 56 26 7 37 21 9 12 13 8 4 19 22 26 14 7 15 5 6 7 22 4 46 40 1 49 9 12 48 3 13 1 20 57 6 2 32 16 6 16 1 728 125 853 (1) (2) (3) As of January 28, 2023, includes three DICK'S House of Sport stores. Includes our Golf Galaxy, Field & Stream, Public Lands and Going Going Gone! specialty concept stores. As of January 28, 2023, we operated 98 Golf Galaxy stores in 35 states, seven Public Lands stores in seven states, 15 Going Going Gone! stores in 13 states, and five Field & Stream stores in two states. In some markets we operate DICK’S Sporting Goods stores adjacent to our specialty concept stores on the same property with a pass- through for athletes. We refer to this format as a “combo store” and include combo store openings within both the DICK’S Sporting Goods and specialty concept store counts, as applicable. As of January 28, 2023, we operated 16 combo stores. Excludes 43 and 14 temporary Warehouse Sale store locations as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. 22 The following is a list of significant locations including the approximate square footage and whether the location is leased or owned: Facility Location Conklin, New York Atlanta, Georgia Plainfield, Indiana Goodyear, Arizona Smithton, Pennsylvania Type Distribution and Fulfillment Distribution Distribution Distribution Distribution Coraopolis, Pennsylvania Customer Support Center (CSC) Square Footage Ownership 917,000 914,000 725,000 624,000 601,000 670,000 Owned Leased Leased Owned Leased Owned The land on which our CSC is built is subject to an underlying ground lease with Allegheny County Airport Authority, which expires in 2038. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We and our subsidiaries are involved in various proceedings that are incidental to the normal course of our businesses. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we do not expect that any of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES Not applicable. 23 PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Market Information and Dividend Policy Shares of DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. common stock are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “DKS”. We also have shares of Class B common stock outstanding, which are not listed or traded on any stock exchange or other market. Shares of our Class B common stock can be converted on a one-for-one basis to shares of our common stock at any time at the holder’s option and are automatically converted upon the occurrence of certain events. The declaration of dividends and the establishment of the per share amount, record dates and payment dates for any such future dividends are subject to the final determination of our Board of Directors, and are dependent upon multiple factors, including future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other considerations. As of March 17, 2023, there were 233 and 15 registered holders of our common stock and Class B common stock, respectively. Comparison of 5 Year Cumulative Total Return The following graph compares the performance of our common stock with that of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (the “S&P 500”) and the S&P Specialty Retail Index for the periods indicated below. The graph assumes that $100 was invested on February 2, 2018 in our common stock, the S&P 500 and the S&P Specialty Retail Index and that all dividends were reinvested.

As a result of that valuation, the Company delivered to the exchanging holders an aggregate amount of 2,183,202 shares of its common stock plus an aggregate of $95.3 million in cash in exchange for an aggregate principal amount of $95.3 million of Convertible Senior Notes. These exchange transactions closed on December 16, 2022 and December 19, 2022. The shares of common stock were delivered in reliance on an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. 24 A portion of the shares of common stock delivered pursuant to the exchanges described above were obtained by the Company from financial institutions (each, a “Hedge Counterparty”) as part of the early unwinds of the convertible note hedge transactions and related warrant transactions (collectively, the “Hedge Transactions”) entered into concurrently with the Convertible Senior Notes issuance. The early unwind agreements between the Company and each Hedge Counterparty (collectively, the “Hedge Early Termination Agreements”) related to a portion of the Hedge Transactions corresponding to the amount of Convertible Senior Notes exchanged by holders thereof pursuant to the Exchange Agreements.

[RESERVED] 25 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Refer to “Forward-Looking Statements” and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”. Business Overview We are a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high-quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories. In addition to DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, we own and operate Golf Galaxy, Public Lands and Going Going Gone! specialty concept stores, and offer our products both online and through our mobile apps. We also own and operate DICK’S House of Sport and Golf Galaxy Performance Center, as well as GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications, live scorekeeping and video streaming. When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires or specifies, any reference to “year” is to our fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January each year. Since 2017, we have transformed our business to drive sustainable growth in sales and profitability. During this time, we meaningfully improved our merchandise assortment through strong relationships with our key brand partners, which provided access to highly differentiated product and our vertical brands. We also enhanced our store selling culture and service model and incorporated additional experiential elements and technology into our stores to engage our athletes. Finally, we invested in technology and data science to improve our pricing strategy, digital marketing and personalization capabilities. Consumers have also made lasting lifestyle changes in recent years, increasing their focus on health and fitness, sports and outdoor activities which has increased demand for our products. As a result of our core strategies, foundational improvements and these strong secular consumer trends, net sales increased 41.3% in fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2019, and reflects growth in our key priority categories including footwear, athletic apparel, team sports and golf. Our profitability is primarily influenced by growth in comparable store sales, the strength of our merchandise margins and ability to manage operating expenses. In addition to the structurally higher sales compared to pre-COVID levels, our merchandise margins increased over 300 basis points as a percentage of net sales in fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2019, as we’ve maintained the majority of the merchandise expansion that we drove over the prior two years with our differentiated product assortment, combined with our disciplined pricing strategy and favorable sales mix. We’ve also experienced meaningful leverage on fixed occupancy costs and selling, general and administrative costs, due to the significant sales increase. With our structurally higher sales, expanded merchandise margins, and operating expense leverage, our pre-tax income as a percentage of net sales grew from 4.7% in fiscal 2019 to 11.2% in fiscal 2022 and our earnings per diluted share grew from $3.34 in fiscal 2019 to $10.78 in fiscal 2022. Field & Stream Exit During the fourth quarter of 2022, we decided to exit the Field & Stream brand (the “Field & Stream Exit”). We plan to convert the existing 17 Field & Stream stores, the majority of which are part of a DICK’S and Field & Stream combo store, to DICK’S House of Sport stores, expanded DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, or other specialty concept stores. We closed twelve of these stores for conversion during the fourth quarter of 2022 and incurred pre-tax charges totaling $30.1 million, which included $28.5 million of non-cash impairment of store assets, $0.8 million of severance and a $0.7 million inventory write-down. Additionally, we sold the Field & Stream trademark in fiscal 2023 for proceeds near its carrying value and plan to convert the remaining Field & Stream stores by fiscal 2024. Macroeconomic Outlook The macroeconomic environment in which we operate remains uncertain as a result of numerous factors, including inflationary pressures and the potential impact of rising interest rates. In addition, disruption of supply chains, including factory closures and port congestion, has resulted in apparel overages from late arriving inventory and elevated container and transportation costs which began to moderate during the second half of fiscal 2022. We took actions during the third and fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 to address these targeted inventory overages, and as a result, we believe our inventory is healthy and well-positioned to meet the demands of our athletes in fiscal 2023. Although we have successfully managed these issues thus far, the continued effect of these challenges may impact longer-term consumer discretionary spending behavior and the promotional landscape in which we operate. Our fiscal 2023 outlook contemplates this uncertainty. 26 How We Evaluate Our Operations Senior management focuses on certain key indicators to monitor our performance including: • • • • • Comparable store sales performance – Our management considers comparable store sales, which includes online sales, to be an important indicator of our current performance. Comparable store sales results are important to leverage our costs, which include occupancy costs, store payroll and other store expenses. Comparable store sales also have a direct impact on our total net sales, net income, cash and working capital. A store is included in the comparable store sales calculation during the fiscal period that it commences its 14th full month of operations. Relocated stores are included in the comparable store sales calculation from the open date of the original location. Stores that were permanently closed during the applicable period have been excluded from comparable store sales results. For further discussion of our comparable store sales refer to the “Results of Operations” section herein. Earnings before taxes and the related operating margin – Our management views operating margin and earnings before taxes as key indicators of our performance. The key drivers of earnings before taxes are comparable store sales, gross profit, and our ability to control selling, general and administrative expenses. Cash flows from operating activities – Cash flow generation supports our general liquidity needs and funds capital expenditures for our omni-channel platform, which include investments in new and existing stores and our eCommerce channel, distribution and administrative facilities, continuous improvements to information technology tools, potential strategic acquisitions or investments that may arise from time-to-time and stockholder return initiatives, including cash dividends and share repurchases. We typically experience lower operating cash flows in our third fiscal quarter due to increased inventory purchases in advance of the holiday selling season, which typically normalizes in our fourth fiscal quarter. For further discussion of our cash flows refer to the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section herein. Quality of merchandise offerings – To measure effectiveness of our merchandise offerings, we monitor sell-throughs, inventory turns, gross margins and markdown rates at the department and style level. This analysis helps us manage inventory levels to reduce working capital requirements and deliver optimal gross margins by improving merchandise flow and establishing appropriate price points to minimize markdowns. Store productivity – To assess store-level performance, we monitor various indicators, including new store productivity, sales per square foot, store operating contribution margin and store cash flow. Executive Summary • Net sales increased 0.6% to $12.37 billion in fiscal 2022 from $12.29 billion in fiscal 2021, which included a decrease in comparable store sales of 0.5% following a 27.4% increase in 2021. When compared to fiscal 2019, net sales increased 41.3%. • We reported net income of $1.0 billion, or $10.78 per diluted share, in fiscal 2022, compared to $1.52 billion, or $13.87 per diluted share, during fiscal 2021. ◦ Fiscal 2022 net income includes charges of $22.3 million, net of tax, or $0.25 per diluted share, related to the Field & Stream Exit. Additionally, earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2022 reflects our adoption of ASU 2020-06, which requires the assumption that our convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Senior Notes”) will be settled in shares of our common stock. As a result, fiscal 2022 earnings per diluted share excluded $27.1 million of interest expense, net of tax, and included 10.8 million diluted shares related to the Convertible Senior Notes, which together decreased earnings per diluted share by $1.01. During fiscal 2022, we settled $515.9 million of our Convertible Senior Notes without dilutive effect, as the related principal was settled in cash and due to the shares received from its convertible bond hedge. ◦ Fiscal 2021 net income included approximately $15.0 million of pre-tax expenses, or $0.10 per diluted share net of tax, of teammate compensation and safety costs resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, fiscal 2021 net income included $22.8 million of non-cash interest expense, net of tax, and earnings per diluted share included 11.3 million shares related to the Convertible Senior Notes that were designed to be offset at conversion by our bond hedge, which together decreased earnings per diluted share by $1.83 in the prior year. 27 • In addition, during fiscal 2022, we: ◦ Terminated the proportionate amount of warrants concurrent with our exchange of $515.9 million of our Convertible Senior Notes, resulting in the issuance of 9.8 million shares of our common stock; ◦ Declared and paid aggregate cash dividends on a quarterly basis for a total amount of $1.95 per share on our common stock and Class B common stock; and ◦ Repurchased 5.0 million shares of common stock under our share repurchase program for a total cost of $426.7 million. • The following table summarizes store openings and closings in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021: DICK’S Sporting Goods (1) Fiscal 2022 Specialty Concept Stores (2) Total (3) DICK’S Sporting Goods Fiscal 2021 Specialty Concept Stores (2) 730 4 6 728 3 131 9 15 125 1 861 13 21 853 4 728 6 4 730 11 126 8 3 131 1 Total (3) 854 14 7 861 12 Beginning stores New stores Closed stores Ending stores Relocated stores (1) As of January 28, 2023, includes three DICK'S House of Sport stores.

As of January 28, 2023, we operated 98 Golf Galaxy stores, seven Public Lands stores, 15 Going Going Gone! stores, and five Field & Stream stores. In some markets, we operate DICK’S Sporting Goods stores adjacent to our specialty concept stores on the same property with a pass-through for our athletes. We refer to this format as a “combo store” and include combo store openings within both the DICK’S Sporting Goods and specialty concept store reconciliations, as applicable. As of January 28, 2023, the Company operated 16 combo stores. (3) Excludes 43 and 14 temporary Warehouse Sale store locations as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively.

(1) Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, net of sales tax. Revenue from eCommerce sales, including vendor-direct sales arrangements, is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded. Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the “cards”) is deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards. The cards have no expiration date. (2) Cost of goods sold includes: the cost of merchandise (inclusive of vendor allowances, inventory shrinkage and inventory write-downs for the lower of cost or net realizable value); freight; distribution; shipping; and store occupancy costs. We define merchandise margin as net sales less the cost of merchandise sold. Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, general maintenance, utilities, depreciation and certain insurance expenses. (3) Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, operating costs associated with our internal eCommerce platform, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating our customer support center. (4) Pre-opening expenses, which consist primarily of rent, marketing, payroll, recruiting and other store preparation costs are expensed as incurred. Rent is recognized within pre-opening expense from the date we take possession of a site through the date the store opens. (5) Beginning in fiscal 2022, we revised our method for calculating comparable store sales by including relocated store locations. Prior year fiscal 2021 information was revised to reflect this change for comparability purposes. See additional details as furnished in Exhibit 99.2 of the Company’s Form 8-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 8, 2022. (6) Includes our DICK’S Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy, Public Lands, Going Going Gone! and Field & Stream stores. Excludes temporary Warehouse Sale store locations. Fiscal 2022 store count reflects the closure of twelve Field & Stream stores for which the associated square footage of each closed store was retained as we plan in the near-term to convert them into DICK’S House of Sport stores, expanded DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, or other specialty concept stores. Note - As retailers vary in how they record costs of operating their stores and supply chain between cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses, our gross profit rate and selling, general and administrative expenses rate may not be comparable to other retailers. For additional information regarding the types of costs classified within cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses or any other financial statement line items presented herein, refer to Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 29 A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for the year ended January 28, 2023 (Fiscal 2022) compared to the year ended January 29, 2022 (Fiscal 2021) is presented below. A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for Fiscal 2021 compared to the year ended January 30, 2021 (Fiscal 2020) can be found under Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 23, 2022. Fiscal 2022 Compared to Fiscal 2021 Net Sales Net sales increased 0.6% to $12.37 billion in fiscal 2022 from $12.29 billion in fiscal 2021 due to a $131.9 million increase in net sales primarily attributable to new temporary Warehouse Sale and other stores, partially offset by $57.1 million, or 0.5%, of a decrease in comparable store sales. The decrease in comparable store sales included a 0.7% decrease in transactions offset by a 0.2% increase in sales per transaction, and reflects an anticipated sales normalization in certain categories, including fitness and outdoor equipment, along with a favorable sales impact in fiscal 2021 following government stimulus payments, partially offset by growth in footwear, team sports and athletic apparel. Income from Operations Income from operations decreased to $1,463.0 million in fiscal 2022 from $2,034.5 million in fiscal 2021. Gross profit decreased to $4,284.6 million in fiscal 2022 from $4,711.9 million in fiscal 2021 and decreased as a percentage of net sales by 369 basis points. Merchandise margins decreased 304 basis points as a result of our actions to reduce targeted apparel inventory overages, item-level deals provided to our athletes during the holiday season and higher inventory shrink due to increased theft. Occupancy costs, which after the cost of merchandise represents the largest item within our cost of goods sold, are generally fixed on a per store basis and fluctuate based on the number of stores that we operate. Our occupancy costs increased $44.1 million compared to fiscal 2021 and decreased gross profit as a percentage of net sales by 30 basis points. The remaining decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was driven by an increase in eCommerce shipping expense due primarily to higher shipping rates and penetration of eCommerce sales compared to the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $2,805.5 million in the current year from $2,664.1 million in fiscal 2021, and increased as a percentage of net sales by 101 basis points. Fiscal 2022 included Field & Stream Exit charges of $29.3 million, and fiscal 2021 included approximately $15.0 million of COVID-related costs. The remaining $127.1 million increase was primarily driven by investments in hourly wage rates, talent and technology to support our growth strategies, offset by lower incentive compensation expense and a $31.7 million net cost reduction compared to fiscal 2021 related to changes in the investment values of our deferred compensation plans, for which the corresponding investment expense was recognized in Other Income. Interest Expense Interest expense increased to $95.2 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $57.8 million in fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily due to a $52.8 million increase in interest expense related to the aggregate $1.5 billion Senior Notes issued during the fourth quarter of 2021 and $23.3 million of inducement charges related to the exchange of $515.9 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes, partially offset by a $36.2 million reduction in interest expense related to our Convertible Senior Notes, due to exchange transactions and our adoption of ASU 2020-06; Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional information. Other Income Other income decreased to $15.9 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $17.8 million in fiscal 2021. The Company recognizes investment income or investment expense to reflect changes in deferred compensation plan investment values with an offsetting charge or reduction to selling, general and administrative costs for the same amount. The Company recognized $14.6 million of investment expense during fiscal 2022 compared to investment income of $17.1 million during fiscal 2021, primarily driven by performance in equity markets which impacted the deferred compensation plan investment values. This total $31.7 million decrease related to our deferred compensation plan investment values was offset by a $26.7 million increase in interest income as a result of higher average interest rates on cash and cash equivalents during the current year. 30 Income Taxes Our effective tax rate increased to 24.6% in the current year from 23.8% in fiscal 2021. The current year effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by eliminated tax deductions from our bond hedge following our Convertible Senior Notes exchange transactions, which impacted our income tax expense by $21.5 million, partially offset by the favorable rate impact of the vesting of employee equity awards on lower pre-tax income. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our cash on hand as of January 28, 2023 was $1.9 billion. We believe that we have sufficient cash flows from operations and cash on hand to operate our business for at least the next twelve months, supplemented by funds available under our unsecured $1.6 billion Credit Facility, if necessary. We may require additional funding should we pursue strategic acquisitions, undertake share repurchases, pursue other investments or engage in store expansion rates in excess of historical levels. We had no revolving credit facility borrowings at any point during fiscal 2022. The following sections describe the potential short and long-term impacts to our liquidity and capital requirements. Leases We lease substantially all of our stores, three of our distribution centers, and certain equipment and storage under non- cancellable operating leases that expire at various dates through 2035. Approximately three-quarters of our DICK’S Sporting Goods stores will be up for lease renewal at our option over the next five years, and we plan to leverage the significant flexibility within our existing real estate portfolio to capitalize on future real estate opportunities. Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 7 – Leases for further information. Revolving Credit Facility We have a $1.6 billion Credit Facility, which includes a maximum amount of $75 million to be issued in the form of letters of credit. Loans under the Credit Facility bear interest at an alternate base rate or an adjusted secured overnight financing rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin percentage. As of January 28, 2023, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility, and we have total remaining borrowing capacity, after adjusting for $16.1 million of standby letters of credit, of $1.58 billion. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility agreement at January 28, 2023. Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 8 – Revolving Credit Facility for further information. Senior Notes As of January 28, 2023, we have $750 million principal amount of senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and $750 million principal amount of senior notes due 2052 outstanding (the “2052 Notes” and together with the 2032 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). Cash interest accrues at a rate of 3.15% per year on the 2032 Notes and 4.10% per year on the 2052 Notes, each of which are payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15. Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 9 – Senior Notes for further information. As of January 28, 2023, our Senior Notes have long-term credit ratings by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies of Baa3 and BBB, respectively. Convertible Senior Notes Following our exchanges totaling $515.9 million principal amount in cash during fiscal 2022, we have an aggregate remaining principal amount of $59.1 million of Convertible Senior Notes outstanding as of January 28, 2023. On February 9, 2023, the Company provided irrevocable notice to the noteholders of our Convertible Senior Notes of our election to redeem the remaining principal in shares. The Company intends to offset share dilution from this settlement through share repurchases using excess cash, free cash flow or borrowings on our Credit Facility. Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 16 – Subsequent Events for further information. Capital Expenditures Our capital expenditures are primarily allocated toward the development of our omni-channel platform, including investments in new and existing stores and eCommerce technology, while we have also invested in our supply chain and corporate technology capabilities. In fiscal 2022, capital expenditures totaled $364.1 million on a gross basis and $328.0 million on a net basis, which includes tenant allowances provided by landlords. 31 We anticipate that fiscal 2023 capital expenditures will be in a range of $550 to $600 million, net of tenant allowances provided by landlords. We expect our capital expenditures to be concentrated on new store development, relocations and remodels, including nine DICK’S House of Sport stores and eleven Golf Galaxy Performance Centers, improvements within our existing stores including converting over 100 stores to premium full-service footwear decks, and continued investments in technology to enhance our store fulfillment, in-store pickup and other foundational capabilities. Share Repurchases From time-to-time, we may opportunistically repurchase shares of our common stock. In fiscal 2022, we repurchased approximately 5.0 million shares of our common stock for $426.7 million. During fiscal 2022, we also paid $31.7 million for shares repurchased during fiscal 2021. We currently operate under a $2.0 billion share repurchase program that was authorized by the Board of Directors in December 2021. As of January 28, 2023, the available amount remaining under the December 2021 authorization was $1.4 billion. Any future share repurchase programs are subject to authorization by our Board of Directors and will be dependent upon future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors. Dividends In fiscal 2022, we paid $163.1 million of dividends to our stockholders. On March 6, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a 105% increase in our quarterly cash dividend compared to the previous quarterly per share amount. The dividend of $1.00 per share of common stock and Class B common stock is payable on March 31, 2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 17, 2023. During fiscal 2021, we paid $603.0 million in dividends, which included quarterly dividends and a special dividend in the amount of $5.50 per share, on our common stock and Class B common stock. The declaration of future dividends and the establishment of the per share amount, record dates and payment dates for any such future dividends are subject to authorization by our Board of Directors and are dependent upon multiple factors including future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other considerations. Supply Chain Financing We have entered into supply chain financing arrangements with several financial institutions, whereby suppliers have the opportunity to settle outstanding payment obligations early at a discount. In turn, we settle invoices with the financial institutions in accordance with the original supplier payment terms. Our rights and obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment terms, are not impacted. Our liability associated with the funded participation in the arrangements, which is presented within accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, was $40.1 million and $76.0 million as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Cash Flows Changes in cash and cash equivalents for the last three fiscal years are as follows (in thousands): Net cash provided by operating activities Net cash used in investing activities Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents $ $ Operating Activities January 28, 2023 Fiscal Year Ended January 29, 2022 1,616,872 $ (343,979) (287,722) (33) 985,138 $ January 30, 2021 1,552,769 (224,164) 260,057 71 1,588,733 921,881 $ (392,894) (1,247,636) (170) (718,819) $ Cash flows provided by operating activities decreased $695.0 million in fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $476.7 million decrease in earnings and a $213.1 million increase in cash payments for inventory and accounts payable to replenish inventory levels after a 28.3% sales increase in fiscal 2021 and supply chain disruptions following the emergence of COVID-19, which resulted in inventory growth to support our 41.3% sales growth in fiscal 2022 when compared to fiscal 2019. The remaining decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by a $135.5 million decrease from accrued expenses as a result of year-over-year changes in incentive compensation accruals and corresponding payments, and the timing of marketing and deferred compensation plan payments, offset by an increase from changes in operating lease assets and liabilities of $70.1 million due to the timing of rent payments at the end of fiscal 2022. 32 Investing Activities Cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2022 increased $48.9 million to $392.9 million, due to an increase in gross capital expenditures. Gross capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 included higher investments in our stores and technology, offset by last year’s investments in merchandise presentation and improving the fitting and lesson experience in our golf business. Cash used in investing activities also included progress payments for the purchase of corporate aircraft and investments in organizations that focus on innovation and improving local communities through sport. Financing Activities Financing activities have historically consisted of capital return initiatives, including share repurchases and cash dividend payments, cash flows generated from stock option exercises and cash activity associated with our Credit Facility, or other financing sources. Cash used in financing activities increased $959.9 million during fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2021. Fiscal 2022 included the exchange of $515.9 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Senior Notes and $458.5 million in share repurchases. Fiscal 2021 included over $1.1 billion in share repurchases and the payment of a special dividend of $5.50 per share, which was partially offset by our issuance of the Senior Notes that provided net proceeds of approximately $1.5 billion. Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments We are party to contractual obligations that involve commitments to make payments to third parties in the ordinary course of business. Our future contractual obligations primarily consist of payments for operating leases, long-term debt and related interest payments, and other purchase obligations. Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 7 – Leases, Note 9 – Senior Notes and Note 10 – Convertible Senior Notes for amounts outstanding as of January 28, 2023 related to operating leases and long-term debt. Other purchase obligations are for marketing commitments to promote our brand and products, including media and naming rights, technology-related commitments, licenses for trademarks, and other ordinary course commitments. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into many contractual commitments, including purchase orders and commitments for products or services, but generally, such commitments represent annual or cancellable commitments. The amount of non-cancellable purchase commitments as of January 28, 2023 were approximately $265 million. Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates Our significant accounting policies are described in Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Critical accounting policies are those that we believe are both 1) most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and 2) require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of such policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. We consider the following policies to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing our consolidated financial statements. Inventory Valuation We value inventory using the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value, which is generally based on the selling price expectations of the merchandise. We regularly review inventories to determine if the carrying value of the inventory exceeds net realizable value and, when determined necessary, record a reserve to reduce the carrying value to net realizable value. Changes in customer merchandise preference, current and anticipated demand, consumer spending, weather patterns, economic conditions, business trends or merchandising strategies could cause our inventory to be exposed to obsolescence or slow-moving merchandise. A 10% change in our obsolete inventory reserves as of January 28, 2023, would have affected income before income taxes by approximately $5.1 million in fiscal 2022. Shrink expense is accrued as a percentage of merchandise sales based on historical shrink trends. We perform physical inventories at our stores and distribution centers throughout the year. The shrink reserve represents the cumulative loss estimate for each of our locations since the last physical inventory date through the reporting date. Estimates by location and in the aggregate are impacted by internal and external factors and may vary significantly from actual results. A 10% change in our shrink reserve as of January 28, 2023, would have affected income before income taxes by approximately $1.8 million in fiscal 2022. 33 Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill, indefinite-lived and other finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis, or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred. Our evaluation for impairment requires accounting judgments and financial estimates in determining the fair value of the reporting unit or asset. If these judgments or estimates change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets. Our goodwill impairment test compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. We determine the fair value of our reporting units using a combination of an income approach and a market approach. Estimates may differ from actual results due to, among other things, economic conditions, changes to our business models, or changes in operating performance. Significant differences between these estimates and actual results could result in future impairment charges and could materially affect our future financial results. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the reporting unit to its fair value. As of January 28, 2023, we had no reporting units at risk of impairment and a 10% change in the fair value of our reporting units would not indicate a potential impairment of goodwill. The fair value of our reporting unit has remained substantially in excess of its carrying value over the last three fiscal years. Similar to our test for impairment of goodwill, the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets involves comparing their estimated fair values to their carrying values. We estimate the fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets, which are comprised primarily of trademarks and trade names, based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method, which assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third-party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to derive a benefit from these types of assets. This approach is dependent on a number of factors, including estimates of future sales projections and growth, royalty rates in the category of intellectual property, discount rates and other variables. If actual results are not consistent with our estimates and assumptions used in estimating fair value, we may be exposed to material losses. We recognize an impairment charge when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value. We recorded no such impairments in fiscal 2022 or 2021. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets We review long-lived assets whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Assets are reviewed at the lowest level for which independent cash flows can be identified, which is typically the store level. We use an income approach to determine the fair value of individual store locations, which requires discounting projected future cash flows over each store’s remaining lease term. When determining the stream of projected future cash flows associated with an individual store location, we make assumptions about key store variables that incorporate local market conditions, including sales growth rates, gross margin and controllable expenses, such as store payroll. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the store location is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. During fiscal 2022, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $28.5 million for store asset disposals at twelve Field & Stream stores that we closed in the period for conversion into DICK’S House of Sport stores or expanded DICK’S Sporting Goods stores. There were no other significant long-lived assets impairment charges recognized during fiscal 2022, 2021 or 2020. 34 ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Interest Rate Risk We maintain our Credit Facility to support potential liquidity and capital needs. The interest rate under our current Credit Facility is variable and is benchmarked to, at our option, a base rate or an adjusted secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus, in each case, an applicable margin percentage. As of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, and we did not draw on our current or former Credit Facility during fiscal 2022 or fiscal 2021. Accordingly, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would not have materially affected our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The cash coupons on our Senior Notes and Convertible Senior Notes are fixed. Accordingly, interest expense related to these instruments is not affected by interest rate fluctuations. However, the fair value of our fixed rate debt will generally fluctuate with movements of interest rates. The fair value of our debt instruments with fixed interest rates is disclosed in Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements. Credit Risk In April 2020, we issued the Convertible Senior Notes. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes, we also entered into five-year convertible bond hedges with several parties (“the counterparties”) and/or certain of their affiliates. Subject to the movement in our common stock price, we could be exposed to credit risk arising out of settling the convertible bond hedges. Based on our review of the possible settlements and the credit strength of the counterparties and their affiliates, along with our recent notice as announced on February 9, 2023 to call the $59.1 million remaining aggregate principal for redemption on April 18, 2023, we do not believe there is a material exposure to credit risk as a result of these transactions. Refer to Part IV. Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules, Note 16 – Subsequent Events for further information. Impact of Inflation Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our products, overhead costs or wage rates may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may adversely impact consumer demand or have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales if the selling prices of our products do not increase with inflation. Seasonality and Quarterly Results Our business is subject to seasonal influences, including the success of holiday selling season and the impact of unseasonable weather conditions. Although our highest sales and operating income results have historically occurred in the second and fourth fiscal quarters, our business has increasingly been less affected by seasonal fluctuations in recent years. However, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the fiscal year. ITEM 8.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. 35 ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure Controls and Procedures The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of January 28, 2023, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information for the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes: maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected. The Company’s management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of January 28, 2023. Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting included on the following page of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Inherent Limitations of Control Systems There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any control system, including the potential for human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Additionally, judgments in decision making can be faulty and breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. An effective control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the system are adequately met. Accordingly, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our control system can prevent or detect all error or fraud. Finally, projections of any evaluation or assessment of effectiveness of a control system to future periods are subject to the risks that, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in an entity’s operating environment or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies and procedures. 36 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of January 28, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 28, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended January 28, 2023, of the Company and our report dated March 23, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania March 23, 2023 37 ITEM 9B.

Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended January 28, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 28, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 28, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 23, 2023 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Inventory Valuation— Refer to Note 1 to the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company values inventory using the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is generally based on the selling price expectations of the merchandise. The Company regularly reviews inventories to determine if the carrying value of the inventory exceeds net realizable value and when determined necessary, records a reserve to reduce the carrying value to net realizable value. Changes in customer merchandise preference, consumer spending, weather patterns, economic conditions, business trends or merchandising strategies could cause the Company's inventory to be exposed to obsolescence or slow-moving merchandise. Inventories, net and the inventory valuation reserve at January 28, 2023, totaled $2.8 billion and $50.8 million, respectively. We identified the inventory valuation reserve as a critical audit matter because of the extent of audit judgment and effort required to evaluate management’s estimate and assumptions due to the subjective nature of the estimate described above. 42 How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures related to the inventory valuation reserve included the following, among others: • We tested the effectiveness of controls over the inventory valuation reserve process, including controls over the inputs that are used in management’s estimate. • We evaluated the appropriateness and consistency of management’s methods and assumptions used in developing their estimate of the inventory valuation reserve. • We evaluated the appropriateness of specific inputs supporting management’s estimate, including the age of on-hand inventory levels, historic inventory trends, and projected sales and gross margin rates used in the forecasted periods. • We tested the mathematical accuracy of the Company’s inventory valuation reserve calculation. • We compared actual inventory sold below cost in recent years to the inventory valuation reserve estimated by the Company in recent years to evaluate management’s ability to accurately estimate the inventory valuation reserve. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Pittsburgh, PA March 23, 2023 We have served as the Company's auditor since 1998. 43 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, referred to as “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” unless specified otherwise) is a leading omni-channel sporting goods retailer offering an extensive assortment of authentic, high- quality sports equipment, apparel, footwear and accessories. As of January 28, 2023, we operated 728 DICK’S Sporting Goods locations across the United States, serving and inspiring athletes and outdoor enthusiasts to achieve their personal best through a blend of dedicated teammates, in-store experiences and unique specialty shop-in-shops. In addition to DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, the Company owns and operates Golf Galaxy, Public Lands and Going Going Gone! specialty concept stores, and offers its products both online and through mobile apps. The Company also owns and operates DICK’S House of Sport and Golf Galaxy Performance Center, as well as GameChanger, a youth sports mobile app for scheduling, communications, live scorekeeping and video streaming. When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless the context otherwise requires or specifies, any reference to “year” is to the Company’s fiscal year. Fiscal Year The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January. Unless otherwise stated, references to years in this Annual Report on Form 10-K relate to fiscal years, rather than to calendar years. Fiscal years 2022, 2021 and 2020 ended on January 28, 2023, January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, respectively. All fiscal years presented include 52 weeks of operations. Principles of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts within the Consolidated Financial Statement Footnotes to conform to the current year presentation. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds and commercial paper and are stated at carrying value, which approximates fair value, and are considered Level 1 investments. Cash and cash equivalents were comprised of the following for the fiscal years presented (in thousands): Cash (1) Money market funds Commercial paper Total cash and cash equivalents 2022 $ $ 725,604 $ 911,400 287,382 1,924,386 $ 2021 678,236 1,910,000 54,969 2,643,205 (1) Cash includes amounts due from third-party financial institutions for the settlement of credit card and debit card transactions, which typically process within three business days. 49 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Cash Management The Company’s cash management system provides for the reimbursement of all major bank disbursement accounts on a daily basis. Accounts payable at January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022 include $7.4 million and $96.6 million, respectively, of checks drawn in excess of cash balances not yet presented for payment. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable primarily consist of amounts due from vendors and landlords. The amount of accounts receivable due from landlords as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, was $34.3 million and $45.0 million, respectively. The Company’s allowance for credit losses totaled $2.9 million and $3.2 million at January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Inventory costs consist of the direct cost of merchandise including freight. Inventories are net of shrinkage, obsolescence, other valuation accounts and vendor allowances, and totaled $139.5 million and $86.1 million at January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include finance leases. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings Leasehold improvements Furniture, fixtures and equipment Computer software 40 years 10-25 years 3-7 years 3-10 years For leasehold improvements and property and equipment under finance lease agreements, depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Leasehold improvements made after lease commencement are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term, including renewal periods, if reasonably assured. The Company recognized depreciation expense of $332.3 million, $315.7 million and $317.5 million in fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates its long-lived assets and assesses whether the carrying values have been impaired whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying values of these assets may not be recoverable based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus eventual net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. When an impairment loss is recognized, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value as determined based on quoted market prices or through the use of other valuation techniques. The related impairment expense is recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired entities. The Company assesses the carrying value of goodwill annually or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred. The Company’s goodwill impairment test compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using a combination of the income approach, by using a discounted cash flow model, and a market value approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment charge to selling, general and administrative expenses is recorded to reduce the carrying value to the fair value. A reporting unit is the operating segment, or a business unit one level below that operating segment, for which discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management. 50 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist of both indefinite-lived and finite-lived assets. The Company’s intangible assets are primarily indefinite-lived, consisting mostly of trademarks and acquired trade names, which the Company tests annually for impairment, or whenever circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred, using Level 3 inputs. The Company estimates the fair value of these intangible assets based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. The Company’s finite-lived intangible assets consist primarily of customer lists and other acquisition-related assets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful economic lives and are reviewed for impairment when factors indicate that an impairment may have occurred. The Company recognizes an impairment charge when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value. Self-Insurance The Company is self-insured for certain losses related to health, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, although we maintain stop-loss coverage with third-party insurers to limit our liability exposure. Liabilities associated with these losses are estimated in part by considering historical claims experience, industry factors, severity factors and other actuarial assumptions. Pre-opening Expenses Pre-opening expenses, which consist primarily of rent, marketing, payroll, recruiting and other store preparation costs are expensed as incurred. Rent is recognized within pre-opening expense from the date the Company takes possession of a site through the date of store opening and during periods when stores are closed for remodeling. Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for a given period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares, which include shares the Company could be obligated to issue from its Convertible Senior Notes and warrants, and stock-based awards, such as stock options and restricted stock. Dilutive potential common shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. For all periods presented, dilutive potential common shares for the Company’s stock-based awards and warrants were determined using the treasury stock method. For fiscal year 2021, the dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes was calculated using the treasury stock method; however, upon the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company was required to calculate diluted earnings per common share using the if-converted method, which was applied to fiscal year 2022. Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below for further discussion. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has the ability to grant teammates a number of different stock-based awards, including restricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units and stock options to purchase common stock, under the DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. Amended and Restated 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The Company records stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of stock awards at the grant date, and recognizes the expense over the employees’ service periods, net of estimated forfeitures. Income Taxes The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes and provides deferred income taxes for temporary differences between the amounts reported for assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and for income tax reporting purposes, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the relevant taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon ultimate settlement. Interest and penalties from income tax matters are recognized in income tax expense. 51 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Revenue Recognition Sales Transactions Revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of all contractual performance obligations and transfer of control to the customer and is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for corresponding goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s sales are single performance obligation arrangements for retail sale transactions for which the transaction price is equivalent to the stated price of the product or service, net of any stated discounts applicable at a point in time. Each sales transaction results in an implicit contract with the customer to deliver a product or service at the point of sale. Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale. Sales tax amounts collected from customers that are assessed by a governmental authority are excluded from revenue. Revenue from eCommerce sales, including vendor-direct sales arrangements, is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. Shipping and handling activities occurring subsequent to the transfer of control to the customer are accounted for as fulfillment costs rather than as a promised service. A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded. Deferred Revenue Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the “cards”) is deferred and recognized upon their redemption. Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income within net sales in proportion to the pattern of rights exercised by the customer in future periods. The Company performs an evaluation of historical redemption patterns from the date of original issuance to estimate future period redemption activity. During the fiscal years ended January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, the Company recognized $19.9 million and $19.5 million of gift card breakage revenue, respectively, and experienced approximately $106.2 million and $87.2 million of gift card redemptions in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, that had been included in its gift card liability as of January 29, 2022 and January 30, 2021, respectively. Based on the Company’s historical experience, the majority of gift card revenue is recognized within 12 months of deferral. The cards have no expiration date. Loyalty program points are accrued at the estimated retail value per point, net of estimated breakage. The Company estimates the breakage of loyalty points based on historical redemption rates experienced within the loyalty program. Based on the Company’s customer loyalty program policies, the majority of program points earned are redeemed or expire within 12 months. Refer to Note 6 – Deferred Revenue and Other Liabilities for additional information regarding the amount of these liabilities at January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022. Net sales by category The following table disaggregates the amount of net sales attributable to hardlines, apparel and footwear for the last three fiscal years (in millions): Hardlines (1) Apparel Footwear (2) Other (3) Total net sales 2022 Fiscal Year 2021 $ 4,952.2 $ 5,407.9 $ 4,218.1 2,979.1 218.8 4,131.2 2,562.8 191.5 2020 4,428.5 3,180.2 1,834.3 141.0 $ 12,368.2 $ 12,293.4 $ 9,584.0 (1) (2) (3) Includes items such as sporting goods equipment, fitness equipment, golf equipment and hunting and fishing gear.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold includes: the cost of merchandise (inclusive of vendor allowances, inventory shrinkage and inventory write- downs for the lower of cost or net realizable value); freight; distribution; shipping; and store occupancy costs. The Company defines merchandise margin as net sales less the cost of merchandise sold. Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, general maintenance, utilities, depreciation and certain insurance expenses. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, operating costs associated with the Company’s internal eCommerce platform, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company’s Customer Support Center (“CSC”). Advertising Costs Production costs for all forms of advertising and the costs to run the advertisements are expensed the first time the advertisement takes place. Advertising expense, net of cooperative advertising, was $412.2 million, $410.9 million and $293.4 million for fiscal 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Business Development Allowances Business development allowances include allowances, rebates and cooperative advertising funds received from vendors. These funds are determined for each fiscal year and the majority are based on various quantitative contract terms. Amounts expected to be received from vendors for the purchase of merchandise inventories (“vendor allowances”) are recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold as the merchandise is sold. Amounts that represent a reimbursement of costs incurred, such as advertising (“cooperative advertising”), are recorded as a reduction to the related expense in the period that the related expense is incurred. Segment Information The Company is a specialty omni-channel retailer that offers a broad range of products in its specialty retail stores, which are primarily located in the eastern United States. Given the economic characteristics of the store formats, the similar nature of the products sold, the type of customer and method of distribution, the Company’s operating segments are aggregated within one reportable segment. Refer to Revenue Recognition within this Note for additional disclosure of net sales by merchandise category. Construction Allowances Nearly all of the Company’s store locations are leased. The Company may receive reimbursement from a landlord for a portion of the cost of the structure, subject to satisfactory fulfillment of applicable lease provisions. These reimbursements may be referred to as tenant allowances or construction allowances provided by landlords (“construction allowances”). The Company’s accounting for construction allowances differs depending on whether the Company is deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to commencement of the lease. • • If the Company is not deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to lease commencement, reimbursement from a landlord for tenant improvements is classified as a lease incentive and included as a reduction to the related operating lease asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The incentive is amortized as part of operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Landlord reimbursements from these transactions are included in cash flows from operating activities as a change in construction allowances provided by landlords. If the Company is deemed to have control of the underlying asset prior to lease commencement, a sale and leaseback of the asset occurs when construction of the asset is complete and the lease term begins, if relevant sale-leaseback accounting criteria are met. Any gain or loss from the transaction is recorded in the period in which control of the underlying asset is relinquished back to the lessor. The Company reports the amount of cash received for the construction allowance as construction allowance receipts within the financing activities section of its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when such allowances are received prior to completion of the sale-leaseback transaction. The Company reports the amount of cash received from construction allowances as proceeds from sale leaseback transactions within the investing activities section of its Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when such amounts are received after the sale-leaseback accounting criteria have been achieved. 53 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Leases The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease’s commencement date based on the present value of remaining fixed lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of the Company’s leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at a lease’s commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms. The operating lease asset also includes any fixed lease payments made, net of lease incentives, and initial direct costs incurred. Operating lease expense for fixed lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and may include certain index-based changes in rent and other non-fixed payments for services provided by the lessor. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company’s leases do not contain any material residual guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company has lease agreements with non-lease components that relate to the lease components and elected the practical expedient to account for non-lease components, and the lease components to which they relate, as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” The update provides optional guidance to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The amendments in this ASU can be applied anytime between the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, which were later deferred to December 2024 by the FASB’s issuance of ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848.” The Company’s primary association with LIBOR was through interest rates applicable to loans under its former revolving credit facility, which was terminated in January 2022 and replaced with a new revolving credit facility that uses an adjusted secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”). The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 on a prospective basis, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. Convertible Instruments In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40),” which removes the separation models for convertible debt with cash conversion or beneficial conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also requires the application of the if- converted method for calculating earnings per diluted share, under which the Company must assume that any conversion of its convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “Convertible Senior Notes”) will be satisfied entirely in common stock. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on the first day of fiscal 2022 using the modified retrospective approach, which resulted in the following adjustments to the Consolidated Balance Sheet (in millions): Balance sheet line item Convertible senior notes due 2025 Net deferred tax assets Additional paid-in capital Retained earnings Last Day of Fiscal 2021 Adoption of ASU 2020-06 First Day of Fiscal 2022 $ $ $ $ 449.3 $ 35.0 $ 1,488.8 $ 3,956.6 $ 114.0 $ 29.3 $ (119.0) $ 34.2 $ 563.3 64.3 1,369.8 3,990.8 54 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Following the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion feature of the Convertible Senior Notes is no longer separately presented within stockholders’ equity, eliminating the non-cash debt discount. Accordingly, the Company’s effective interest rate on the Convertible Senior Notes decreased from 11.6% to 3.9% upon adoption, resulting in a $27.4 million reduction in pre-tax non-cash interest expense for fiscal 2022 as compared to fiscal 2021. Despite the Company’s exchange of $515.9 million of principal in cash during fiscal 2022, the application of the if-converted method requires earnings per diluted share to reflect that the Convertible Senior Notes will be settled entirely in shares upon conversion. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the Company used the treasury stock method which allowed the Company to assume that the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes would be paid in cash. The impact of adoption was not material to earnings per diluted share. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement Supplier Finance Programs In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, “Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the first quarter of 2023, except for the amendment on roll-forward information, which is effective for the first quarter of 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this accounting standard will have on its financial disclosures. 2. Earnings per Common Share The computations for basic and diluted earnings per common share were as follows for the fiscal years presented below (in thousands, except per share data): Numerator: Numerator for basic earnings per common share – Net income $ 1,043,138 $ 1,519,871 $ 530,251 Effect of dilutive securities Interest expense associated with Convertible Senior Notes, net of tax Numerator for diluted earnings per common share – Net income after the effect of dilutive securities 27,060 — — $ 1,070,198 $ 1,519,871 $ 530,251 2022 2021 2020 Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic Dilutive effect of stock-based awards Dilutive effect of warrants Dilutive effect of Convertible Senior Notes Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted Earnings per common share: Basic Diluted 77,672 5,235 5,575 10,792 99,274 83,183 6,503 8,560 11,332 109,578 84,258 4,185 736 3,460 92,639 $ $ 13.43 $ 10.78 $ 18.27 $ 13.87 $ 6.29 5.72 Stock-based awards excluded from diluted shares 140 42 1,688 55 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) The dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes includes shares that were designed to be offset at settlement by shares delivered from the bond hedge purchased by the Company. The shares provided by the bond hedge are anti-dilutive; accordingly, they are not treated as a reduction to diluted weighted average shares outstanding for any periods presented. In addition, following the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the dilutive effect of the Convertible Senior Notes for fiscal 2022 included shares related to the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes, which has been cash settled to date. During fiscal 2022, the Company exchanged $515.9 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes for cash and terminated the proportionate amount of the convertible bond hedge without dilutive effect. Concurrently, the Company terminated the proportionate amount of warrants, resulting in the issuance of 9.8 million shares of our common stock. Refer to Note 10 – Convertible Senior Notes and Note 16 – Subsequent Events for further information. 3.

As of January 28, 2023, total future undiscounted minimum rentals under non-cancellable subleases approximated $58.3 million. 8. Revolving Credit Facility On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, providing for $1.6 billion in unsecured revolving credit capacity (the “Credit Facility”), of which up to $75.0 million is available for letters of credit. The Credit Facility matures on January 14, 2027, subject to extensions permitted under the Credit Agreement, and allows for $500.0 million in additional incremental borrowing capacity, subject to existing or new lenders agreeing to provide such additional revolving commitments. 58 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) The loans under the Credit Facility bear interest at an alternate base rate or an adjusted SOFR plus, in each case, an applicable margin of 0.125% with respect to the alternate base rate and 1.125% with respect to the adjusted SOFR as of January 28, 2023, which is subject to adjustment based on the Company’s public debt rating. The Credit Facility allows voluntary repayment of outstanding loans at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage costs with respect to SOFR loans. The unused portion of the Credit Facility is subject to a commitment fee of 0.11% per year as of January 28, 2023, which is adjusted based on the Company’s public debt rating. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving line of credit agreements at January 28, 2023 or January 29, 2022. After adjusting for outstanding letters of credit of $16.1 million, the Company’s total remaining borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility was $1.58 billion at January 28, 2023. The Credit Agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for unsecured financings of this type, including negative covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur liens, limit the ability of the Company to make certain fundamental changes and limit the ability of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries to incur indebtedness, in each case subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. The Credit Agreement also contains a maximum lease-adjusted leverage ratio covenant. The Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement at January 28, 2023. 9. Senior Notes Key Terms On January 14, 2022, the Company issued $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.15% senior notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”) and $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.10% senior notes due 2052 (the “2052 Notes” and, together with the 2032 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were issued under a base indenture, dated as of January 14, 2022 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a supplemental indenture, dated as of January 14, 2022 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), in each case by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated debt and other obligations. The Company is required to pay interest on the Senior Notes semi-annually, in arrears, on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on July 15, 2022. Net Proceeds and Carrying Values Net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes totaled approximately $1.5 billion, after deducting the applicable discount. The Company also incurred approximately $15.3 million in offering expenses, including underwriting fees, related to the issuance of the Senior Notes. Together, the discount, underwriting fees and offering expenses will be amortized over the respective terms of the Senior Notes using the effective interest method. During fiscal 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized interest expense of $55.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively, related to the Senior Notes using an effective interest rate on the 2032 Notes of 3.28%, and an effective interest rate on the 2052 Notes of 4.18%. The carrying values of the Senior Notes were as follows for the fiscal years presented (in thousands): Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2021 2032 Notes 2052 Notes Total 2032 Notes 2052 Notes Total Principal $ 750,000 $ 750,000 $ 1,500,000 $ 750,000 $ 750,000 $ 1,500,000 Discounts and issuance costs (7,572) (10,092) (17,664) (8,288) (10,269) (18,557) Carrying amount $ 742,428 $ 739,908 $ 1,482,336 $ 741,712 $ 739,731 $ 1,481,443 59 DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Redemption The Company may redeem the Senior Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time-to-time prior to (i) in the case of the 2032 Notes, October 15, 2031 (the date that is three months before the maturity date of the 2032 Notes), and (ii) in the case of the 2052 Notes, July 15, 2051 (the date that is six months before the maturity date of the 2052 Notes) (the applicable date with respect to each such series of Senior Notes, the “Applicable Par Call Date”), in each case, at a “make- whole” price described in the Supplemental Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, on or after the Applicable Par Call Date, the Company may redeem either series of the Senior Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time-to-time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes of such series to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. Change in Control In the event of certain change of control triggering events with respect to the Senior Notes of either series (subject to certain exceptions), the Company will be required to make an offer to each holder of the applicable Notes of such series to repurchase all or part of its Senior Notes of such series at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase. Covenants The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to incur certain indebtedness secured by liens on certain assets and limit the ability of the Company to make certain fundamental changes, in each case subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications described in the Indenture. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default which, if any of them occur, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the Senior Notes to become or to be declared due and payable, as applicable. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at January 28, 2023. 10. Convertible Senior Notes Overview In April 2020, the Company closed on an aggregate $575.0 million of 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, including the exercise of the full $75.0 million over-allotment option, receiving proceeds of $557.6 million, net of $17.4 million of transaction fees and other third-party offering expenses. The Convertible Senior Notes accrue interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 and mature on April 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The Convertible Senior Notes are the Company’s unsecured, unsubordinated obligations and are equal in right of payment with the Company’s existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness; senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Senior Notes; effectively subordinated to the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries. Conversion Terms Upon issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes in April 2020, the initial conversion rate was 28.2618 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes, which represented an initial conversion price of approximately $35.38 per share. The conversion rate is subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the payment of dividends. In addition, upon the occurrence of a fundamental change prior to the maturity of the Convertible Senior Notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a specified number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert the Convertible Senior Notes in connection with such a fundamental change. As of January 28, 2023, the conversion rate for the Convertible Senior Notes was 31.0915, which represents a conversion price of $32.16 per share. The difference between the initial conversion rate and the conversion rate as of January 28, 2023 is due to dividends that have been declared and paid on shares of the Company’s common stock following the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes. 60 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Upon conversion, the Company may settle the Convertible Senior Notes for cash, shares of the Company’s stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s option. Convertible Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions In connection with the sale of the Convertible Senior Notes, the Company purchased a bond hedge designed to offset the potential dilution to stockholders from the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes. The cost of the bond hedge was partially offset by the Company’s sale of warrants to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock. The bond hedge and warrants both contained approximate five-year terms from issuance. The warrants were initially exercisable at a price of $52.42 per share and are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the payment of dividends. As of January 28, 2023, the warrants were exercisable at a price of $47.65 per share. The difference between the initial and current exercise price is due to dividends that have been declared and paid on shares of the Company’s common stock following the issuance of the warrants. The bond hedge and warrant transactions effectively increased the conversion price associated with the Convertible Senior Notes during the term of these transactions from 35% to 100% at their issuance, thereby reducing the dilutive economic effect to stockholders upon actual conversion. There is dilution from the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes to the extent that the then-market price per share of the common stock exceeds the exercise price of the warrants at the time of conversion. The bond hedges and warrants are indexed to, and potentially settled in shares of, the Company’s common stock. The net cost of $55.8 million for the purchase of the bond hedges and sale of the warrants was recorded during fiscal 2020 as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Convertible Senior Notes Exchanges During fiscal 2022, the Company entered into agreements with certain holders of the Convertible Senior Notes to exchange $515.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes for a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. The payments included all accrued and unpaid interest on the amounts exchanged. Concurrently with each of the exchange transactions during fiscal 2022, the Company entered into agreements with certain counterparties to terminate a proportionate amount of the convertible bond hedge and warrant agreements that were entered into by the Company in April 2020 in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes (collectively, the “Notes Exchanges”). In connection with the Notes Exchanges, the Company recognized pre-tax non-cash inducement charges of $23.3 million during fiscal 2022, which were recorded within interest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income, paid a total of $515.9 million to noteholders to redeem the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes with a carrying value of $507.0 million, and issued 9.8 million shares of the Company's common stock to terminate the proportionate amount of the warrants. Following the Notes Exchanges, $59.1 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes remain outstanding and 1.8 million shares underlie the outstanding Convertible Senior Notes, the convertible bond hedge and the warrants at January 28, 2023. Because the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $126.23 at the end of fiscal 2022 exceeded the conversion price of $32.16, the remaining if-converted value exceeded the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes by approximately $173.0 million at January 28, 2023. Early Redemption The Company may redeem the Convertible Senior Notes at its option at any time on or after April 17, 2023 at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. In addition, calling any Convertible Senior Note for redemption will constitute a make-whole fundamental change with respect to that Convertible Senior Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that Convertible Senior Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption. Refer to Note 16 – Subsequent Events for details surrounding the Company’s notice to call the remaining $59.1 million aggregate principal amount of its Convertible Senior Notes for redemption on April 18, 2023. 61 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC.

A summary of the composition of the net carrying value of the Convertible Senior Notes is as follows (in thousands): Principal Debt discount and issuance fees Carrying amount Equity component (*) $ $ 2022 2021 59,127 $ (856) 58,271 $ N/A $ 575,000 (125,713) 449,287 160,693 (*) Included in additional paid-in capital on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 29, 2022. During fiscal 2022, the Company recognized $36.6 million of interest expense related to the Convertible Senior Notes. Interest expense related to the Convertible Senior Notes included the aforementioned inducement charges and $2.0 million of non-cash amortization of issuance fees. During fiscal 2021, the Company recognized $49.5 million of interest expense related to the Convertible Senior Notes, of which $30.8 million was attributed to non-cash amortization of the debt discount and issuance fees. 11. Fair Value Measurements ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures”, outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Recurring The Company records in its Consolidated Balance Sheets deferred compensation plan assets held in trust at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 1 inputs. Such assets consist of investments in various mutual funds made by eligible individuals as part of the Company’s deferred compensation plans, as discussed in Note 15 – Retirement Savings Plans. As of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, the fair value of the Company’s deferred compensation plans was $133.5 million and $150.8 million, respectively. The Company discloses the fair value of its Senior Notes and Convertible Senior Notes using Level 2 inputs which are based on quoted prices for similar or identical instruments in inactive markets, as follows (in thousands): 2032 Notes 2052 Notes Convertible Senior Notes January 28, 2023 January 29, 2022 Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value $ $ $ 742,428 $ 613,403 $ 741,712 $ 739,908 $ 525,120 $ 739,731 $ 733,147 711,300 58,271 $ 232,488 $ 449,287 $ 2,016,284 Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the carrying value of the Convertible Senior Notes excluded amounts classified within additional paid-in capital and any unamortized discounts as of January 29, 2022. Refer to Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further information. Due to the short-term nature of the following instruments, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities approximated their carrying values at both January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022. 62 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Nonrecurring Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis may include property and equipment, operating lease assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, equity and other assets. These assets are required to be assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable, and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. In the event that an impairment is required, the asset is adjusted to fair value, using Level 3 inputs. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company decided to exit the Field & Stream brand (the “Field & Stream Exit”). As a result, we plan to convert the existing 17 Field & Stream stores to DICK’S House of Sport stores, expanded DICK’S Sporting Goods stores, or other specialty concept stores. We closed twelve of these stores for conversion during the fourth quarter of 2022 and incurred pre-tax charges totaling $30.1 million, which included $28.5 million of non-cash impairment of store assets, $0.8 million of severance and a $0.7 million inventory write-down. The $28.5 million non-cash impairment of store assets is reflected within selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Net Income and within depreciation and amortization on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In connection with the Field & Stream Exit, the Company determined its Field & Stream trademark met held-for-sale criteria as of January 28, 2023 and reclassified the $24.0 million carrying amount to prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Field & Stream trademark was sold in March 2023 for proceeds near its carrying value. 12. Stockholders' Equity Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Preferred Stock The Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and the issuance of 40,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share. In addition, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Holders of common stock generally have rights identical to holders of Class B common stock, except that holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share and holders of Class B common stock are entitled to ten votes per share. A related party, relatives of the related party and their trusts hold all outstanding Class B common stock, which can only be held by members of this group. Class B common shares are not publicly tradable. Each share of Class B common stock can be converted at any time into one share of common stock at the holder’s option. Dividends per Common Share The Company declared aggregate cash dividends of $1.95, $7.10 and $1.25 per share of common stock and Class B common stock during fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which resulted in cash payments for dividends of $163.1 million, $603.0 million and $107.4 million, respectively. Fiscal 2021 included a special dividend of $5.50 per share on the Company’s common stock and Class B common stock declared in August 2021. Treasury Stock As of January 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $1.031 billion collectively remaining under two five-year $1.0 billion share repurchase programs originally authorized by its Board of Directors on March 16, 2016 and June 12, 2019, respectively, both of which were fully exhausted during fiscal 2021. On December 16, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional five-year share repurchase program of up to $2.0 billion of its common stock, which the Company may suspend or discontinue at any time. 63 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC.

The net deferred tax asset balances at January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022 were included within long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, a one-time transition tax resulted in the elimination of the excess of the amount of financial reporting basis over the tax basis in the foreign subsidiaries and subjected $66.6 million of undistributed foreign earnings to tax. No additional income taxes have been provided for any remaining undistributed foreign earnings or foreign withholdings and US state taxes not subject to the one-time transition tax, as the Company intends to permanently reinvest the earnings from foreign subsidiaries outside the United States. Unrecognized Tax Benefits The following table provides a reconciliation of the Company’s total balance of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties (in thousands): Beginning of fiscal year Increases as a result of tax positions taken in a prior period Decreases as a result of tax positions taken in a prior period Decreases as a result of settlements during the current period Reductions as a result of a lapse of statute of limitations during the current period End of fiscal year 2022 2021 2020 $ 1,058 $ 1,058 $ 2,786 6 — 193 — 35 — (6) (193) (1,380) — — $ 1,058 $ 1,058 $ (383) 1,058 65 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) The balance at January 28, 2023 includes $0.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits that would impact our effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties from unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of January 28, 2023, the Company’s total liability for uncertain tax positions, including $1.4 million for interest and penalties, was approximately $2.5 million. During each of fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded $0.1 million for the accrual of interest and penalties in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company does not anticipate that changes in its unrecognized tax benefits will have a material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Income during fiscal 2023. Audits The Company participates in the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Compliance Assurance Program (“CAP”). As part of CAP, tax years are audited on a contemporaneous basis so that all or most issues are resolved prior to the filing of the tax return. The IRS has completed examinations of 2019 and all prior tax years. For tax years 2020 and 2021, the Company was accepted into the CAP Bridge phase during which it is not the intent of the IRS to examine the tax return. Acceptance into the Bridge phase is based on a taxpayers low risk of noncompliance and having few, if any, material issues. For tax year 2022, the Company was accepted into the CAP Compliance Maintenance phase during which the IRS will evaluate the necessary level of review based on complexity and other factors. The Company is no longer subject to examination in any of its major state jurisdictions for years prior to 2017. Recent U.S. Tax Legislation On March 27, 2020, the United States Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which among other things, promulgated various income tax provisions, including but not limited to, modifications for net operating losses, an accelerated time frame for refunds associated with prior minimum taxes and modifications of the limitation on business interest. The CARES Act also provided for refundable employee retention tax credits for wages paid to employees who are unable to work during the COVID-19 pandemic and the deferral of the employer-paid portion of social security taxes. Through fiscal 2020, employee retention tax credits provided under the CARES Act reduced the Company’s operating expenses by approximately $17.4 million, substantially all of which related to wages and benefits the Company paid to teammates during the period of its temporary store closures earlier in the fiscal year. In addition, the Company deferred qualifying payroll and other tax payments of approximately $53.2 million in fiscal 2020 as permitted by the CARES Act, of which $26.4 million was paid in fiscal 2021 and the remainder paid in fiscal 2022. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 that includes, among other provisions, changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system, including implementing a 15% minimum tax on adjusted financial statement income for certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases after December 31, 2022 and tax incentives to promote alternative sources of energy. We do not expect the Inflation Reduction Act to have a material impact on our financial results, including on our annual estimated effective tax rate or on our liquidity. 14. Stock-Based Compensation The Company has the ability to grant restricted and performance-based restricted stock, including shares and units, and options to purchase common stock under the 2012 Plan, under which 7,673,736 shares of common stock were available for future issuance at the end of fiscal 2022. The following table provides total stock-based compensation recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the fiscal years presented (in thousands): Restricted stock expense Performance-based restricted stock expense Stock option expense Total stock-based compensation expense Total related tax benefit Restricted Stock 2022 2021 2020 $ 36,261 $ 32,103 $ 34,423 10,585 3,757 15,359 5,338 $ $ 50,603 $ 52,800 $ 9,730 $ 9,927 $ 9,568 6,186 50,177 10,443 The Company issues shares of restricted stock to eligible employees, which are subject to forfeiture until the end of the applicable vesting period. Restricted stock awards generally vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the employee’s continuing employment as of that date. The fair value of restricted stock is determined on the date of grant using the Company’s stock price. 66 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) Restricted stock activity for fiscal 2022 is presented in the following table: Nonvested, January 29, 2022 Granted Vested Forfeited Restricted Stock Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Intrinsic Value (in millions) Shares 3,341,335 $ 32.63 $ 378.2 472,413 (639,181) (258,644) 104.07 38.01 38.86 Nonvested, January 28, 2023 2,915,923 $ 42.47 $ 368.1 As of January 28, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, from nonvested shares of restricted stock was approximately $47.1 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 0.67 years. Performance-based Restricted Stock The Company issues performance-based restricted stock to eligible employees in support of the Company’s strategic initiatives. Performance-based restricted stock, including shares and units, generally vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant and are subject to the employees’ continued employment as of that date. Additionally, the number of awards vesting depends upon the achievement of certain performance criteria for the fiscal year in which they are granted, which can result in a payout range of 0% to 200% of the original award amount. The fair value of performance-based restricted stock is based on the Company’s stock price on the date of grant. Awards issued during fiscal 2022 assumed target, or 100%, attainment of the shares or units, consistent with the actual attainment for awards. Performance-based restricted stock activity for fiscal 2022 is presented in the following table: Performance-based Restricted Stock Shares/Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Intrinsic Value (in millions) Nonvested, January 29, 2022 893,072 $ 47.63 $ 101.1 Granted Vested (1) Forfeited 118,362 (645,360) (25,007) 101.32 35.49 84.31 Nonvested, January 28, 2023 341,067 $ 86.54 $ 43.1 (1) Performance-based restricted shares under the 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan vested in April 2022 at maximum attainment of the performance measures. As of January 28, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, from nonvested shares of performance-based restricted stock was approximately $13.7 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 1.51 years. Stock Options Historically, the Company has granted stock options to certain teammates, which vested 25% per year over four years and had a seven-year contractual life. When options are exercised, the Company issues new shares of common stock. 67 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) The fair value of stock options is measured on their grant date and is recognized as expense, net of estimated forfeitures, on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Company did not grant any stock options during fiscal 2022. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model for awards granted during fiscal 2021 and 2020 as presented: Exercise price Expected term (years) Expected volatility Risk-free interest rate Expected dividend yield Weighted average grant date fair value 2021 2020 72.40 4.80 47.97 % 0.73% 2.00% 25.20 $ $ 17.80 5.56 41.31 % 0.78% 6.27% 3.70 $ $ The risk-free interest rate is determined by using the U.S. Treasury constant maturity interest rate with a term consistent with the expected life of the option, which represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on historical experience of similar awards giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. The expected dividend yield and volatility are based on historical stock prices and dividend amounts over preceding periods equal in length to the expected life of the options. The Company applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is calculated based on historical activity. The assumptions used to calculate an option’s fair value are evaluated and revised, as necessary, to reflect market conditions and the Company’s experience. Fiscal 2022 stock option activity is presented in the following table: Outstanding, January 29, 2022 Exercised Forfeited / Expired Outstanding, January 28, 2023 Exercisable, January 28, 2023 Vested or expected to vest, January 28, 2023 Shares Subject to Options 3,674,772 $ (860,269) (103,022) 2,711,481 $ 1,485,507 $ 2,665,687 $ Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in millions) 21.78 28.27 15.47 19.96 24.53 20.02 4.21 $ 335.9 3.46 $ 2.94 $ 3.44 $ 288.1 151.1 283.1 At January 28, 2023, unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options that have not yet vested was approximately $2.4 million, net of estimated forfeitures. Compensation expense related to these options is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.1 years. The following table presents stock option information for the last three fiscal years (in millions): Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised Income tax benefit (expense) from the exercise of stock options Total fair value of stock options vested 2022 2021 2020 $ $ $ 71.4 $ 11.6 $ 4.9 $ 37.1 $ 6.8 $ 6.3 $ 8.3 (0.6) 6.1 68 DICK'S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued) 15. Retirement Savings Plans The Company’s retirement plan, established pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, covers all active employees over the age of 18 following one month of service with the Company. Effective January 1, 2022, the Company amended and restated its retirement savings plan and elected a Safe Harbor 401(k) plan design. The Company’s matching contributions under the Safe Harbor 401(k) plan are made bi-weekly, vest immediately and are equal to 100% of each eligible participant’s tax-deferred contributions up to 4% of the participant’s compensation plus 50% of the eligible participant’s tax- deferred contributions up to the next 2% of compensation. Under the previous 401(k) plan, the Company made an annual discretionary matching contribution equal to a percentage of each participant’s contribution, which vested over a period of three years, up to 10% of the participant’s compensation. The Company’s discretionary matching contribution under the previous 401(k) plan was 75% during fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020. Total employer contributions recorded under the plans, net of forfeitures, were $31.6 million, $24.1 million and $17.1 million in fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company also has non-qualified deferred compensation plans for highly compensated employees whose contributions were limited under the qualified defined contribution plans. Amounts contributed and deferred under the deferred compensation plans are credited or charged with the performance of investment options offered under the plans and elected by the participants. In the event of bankruptcy, the assets of these plans are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors. The liability for compensation deferred under the Company’s plans was $133.5 million and $150.8 million as of January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively, and is included within long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Total employer contributions recorded under these plans, net of forfeitures, was $1.8 million, $6.2 million and $5.8 million in fiscal 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Following the Company’s change to the Safe Harbor 401(k) plan on January 1, 2022, the Company eliminated future deferrals for one of its non-qualified plans, which affected fiscal 2022 employer contributions. 16. Subsequent Events On March 6, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $1.00 per share on the Company’s common stock and Class B common stock payable on March 31, 2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 17, 2023. On February 9, 2023, the Company issued a notice to call the remaining $59.1 million aggregate principal amount of its Convertible Senior Notes for redemption on April 18, 2023 in shares. In connection with the call notice, the Company announced its intention to unwind the remaining portions of the convertible bond hedge and warrants and expects the applicable portion to be delivered to the Company in shares of its common stock. The Company intends to offset the dilutive impact of anticipated conversions of the Convertible Senior Notes through the shares received from the convertible bond hedge and shares repurchased by the Company during 2023.

These non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP income before income taxes (percent of net sales), non-GAAP EBT margin, consolidated non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding, non-GAAP gross profit margin, and net capital expenditures, which management believes provides investors with useful supplemental information to evaluate the Company’s ongoing operations and to compare with past and future periods. Furthermore, management believes that adjustments related to the Convertible Senior Notes and convertible bond hedge provide a more complete view of the economics of the instruments upon future conversion. Management also uses these non-GAAP measures internally for forecasting, budgeting, and measuring its operating performance. These measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The methods used by the Company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. A reconciliation of the Company’s non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are provided below and on the Company's website at investors.DICKS.com.

During fiscal 2022 the Company settled $515.9 million of its Convertible Senior Notes without dilutive effect, as the related principal was settled in cash and due to the shares received from its convertible bond hedge. The Company does not expect the shares underlying the remaining $59.1 million will have a dilutive effect upon conversion and believes reflecting the notes as debt more closely represents the economics of the transaction upon future conversion. The Company also recorded pre-tax charges related to the Field & Stream exit totaling $30.1 million, which included $28.5 million of non-cash impairments of store assets, $0.8 million of severance and a $0.7 million inventory write-down related to the closure of 12 Field & Stream stores in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. The provision for income taxes for the aforementioned adjustments were calculated at 26%, which approximated the Company’s blended tax rate. Fiscal 2019 52 Weeks Ended February 1, 2020 GAAP Basis Gross profit $ 2,554,558 Selling, general and administrative expenses Income from operations Gain on sale of subsidiaries Income before income taxes Net income Earnings per diluted share $ 2,173,677 $ 375,613 $ (33,779) $ 407,704 $ 297,462 $ 3.34 % of Net sales 29.19% 24.84% 4.29% (0.39) % 4.66% 3.40% Hunt restructuring charges Gain on sale of subsidiaries Non-cash asset impairments Litigation contingency settlement — — — 13,135 (44,588) 57,723 — 57,723 50,072 — — 33,779 (33,779) (24,996) (15,253) 15,253 — 15,253 11,287 Non-GAAP Basis $ 2,567,693 $ 2,120,247 $ 442,178 $ 6,411 (6,411) — — (6,411) (4,744) $ 440,490 $ 329,081 $ 3.69 % of Net sales 29.34% 24.23% 5.05% 0.00% 5.03% 3.76% During fiscal 2019, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $57.7 million related to the restructuring of the hunt business, which included a trademark impairment of $28.3 million that was not deductible for tax purposes. The Company also recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $15.3 million to reduce the carrying value of a corporate aircraft to its current fair market value, which was subsequently sold. These charges were offset by a pre-tax gain of $33.8 million related to the sale of two technology subsidiaries and a pre-tax benefit of $6.4 million resulting from the favorable settlement of a litigation contingency that was originally accrued in fiscal 2017. The provision for income taxes for the aforementioned adjustments were calculated at the Company's approximated blended tax rate, unless otherwise noted. CORPORATE AND STOCKHOLDER INFORMATION Corporate Office 345 Court Street Coraopolis, PA 15108 724-273-3400 Annual Meeting June 14, 2023 at 7:30 a.m. Via the Internet at http://www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DKS2023 DICK'S Sporting Goods Website Form 10-K www.DICKS.com Transfer Agent and Registrar American Stock Transfer & Trust Company 6201 15th Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11219 Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Deloitte & Touche LLP One PPG Place Suite 2600 Pittsburgh, PA 15222 Common Stock The shares of DICK'S Sporting Goods, Inc. common stock are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), under the symbol "DKS".
