Key insights detailed below reveal competitive share gains, operational execution on inventory and margin levers, and evolving category strategies shaping the long-term outlook.
Company-wide comp store sales turned positive for the second consecutive quarter, with firearms units up over 4% despite a 4.9% quarterly decline in adjusted NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System, a firearms demand proxy) checks, implying meaningful market share gains. Category growth was led by hunting (up 4% year-over-year), fishing (up 10.9% year-over-year), and ammunition sales grew 10%, while camping sales were down 10% year-over-year, following the strategic exit of slow-moving SKUs.
This momentum underscores the company’s ability to outperform underlying industry demand trends by leveraging locally tailored assortments, digital marketing, and strategic category focus.
