Shareholder rights law firm Robbins LLP announced the filing of a class-action lawsuit against DICK'S Sporting Goods. The lawsuit alleges that the company misled investors regarding the growth and profitability prospects following its recent acquisition of Foot Locker. The complaint claims DICK's failed to disclose persistent inventory and promotional challenges with the acquired business.
This legal action follows the company's disappointing second-quarter results and reduced full-year guidance, which were announced on August 25, 2026. The news of poor performance and integration issues at Foot Locker caused the company's stock to decline by approximately 30% on that day.
