KATY, Texas, Dec. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Academy Sports and Outdoors, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASO) ("Academy" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended October 29, 2022. Unless otherwise indicated, comparisons are to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Comparisons to 2019 are also provided, where appropriate, to benchmark performance given the impact of the pandemic in 2020 and 2021.
Third Quarter 2022 Results
"The third quarter was challenging for Academy; however, we delivered a good profit performance that, while below last year, was in line with our expectations. Our team continues to execute at a high level in an uncertain environment, delivering results well above pre-pandemic levels on all measures," stated Ken Hicks, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our focus is on our long-term growth opportunities in stores and online through consistent operational excellence, strong financial discipline, and executing our store and omnichannel expansion plans."Net sales were $1.49 billion, a decrease of 6.2%, compared to $1.59 billion. Comparable sales declined 7.2%. The decline in sales was primarily due to fewer transactions compared to last year, mainly from a decline in Hunting sales within the Outdoors division. When compared to the third quarter of 2019, net sales increased 30.5%. Additionally, e-commerce sales grew 10.5% year-over-year and 173% compared to 2019.
Gross margin was $522.5 million, or 35.0% of net sales, compared to gross margin of $560.8 million, or 35.2% of net sales in the prior year quarter. The 20 basis point decline was driven primarily by an increase in inventory shrink and e-commerce shipping costs, and was partially offset by an increase in merchandise margins. When compared to 2019, the gross margin rate expanded by 340 basis points.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were 23.0% of sales, a 140 basis point increase, primarily due to fixed cost deleverage from the decline in sales and additional pre-opening expenses driven by the increase in store count.
Pre-tax income was $169.9 million compared to $205.3 million. When compared to the third quarter of 2019, pre-tax income increased by more than 480%.
GAAP net income decreased 18.3% to $131.7 million compared to $161.3 million. Diluted earnings per share were $1.62, a 5.8% decrease compared to $1.72 per share based on a share count of 81.4 million shares compared to 93.8 million at the end of the third quarter of 2021.
Adjusted net income, which excludes the impact of certain non-cash and extraordinary items, was $137.9 million. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.69 compared to $1.75 per share.
