Could Dick’s Sporting Goods’ Margins Be Pressured in 2018?

Could Dick’s Sporting Goods’ Margins Be Pressured in 2018?

In fiscal 2018, Dick’s Sporting Goods (DKS) expects its gross margin to contract marginally due to an improved inventory balance in the supply chain and an innovative product pipeline. In fiscal 2018, its operating margin is expected to narrow from the 5.6% reported in fiscal 2017. In fiscal 2017, Dick’s Sporting Goods reported a gross margin of ~29%, marking a contraction of 90 basis points from fiscal 2016, primarily due in an increase in costs of goods sold as a percentage of sales.
