| Item 1.01 |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On September 22, 2026, DICK’S Sporting Goods, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting
Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc., PNC Capital Markets LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, acting for themselves and as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the
Company agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriters $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its senior notes, consisting of $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.200% senior notes due 2036 (the “2036 Notes”) and $600,000,000
aggregate principal amount of its 6.900% senior notes due 2056 (the “2056 Notes” and together with the 2036 Notes, the “Notes”).
The Notes were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Act”), pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-299029) (the “Registration Statement”), dated September 21, 2026. On September 23, 2026, the Company filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”), containing the final terms of the Notes pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2) of the Act. The Notes were sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement and were issued pursuant to
the Prospectus Supplement. The Notes are governed by the Indenture, dated January 14, 2022 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and
U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association) (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated
September 25, 2026 (the “Supplemental Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.
The 2036 Notes will mature on September 25, 2036 and the 2056 Notes will mature on September 25, 2056. The Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Company and
will rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations. The Notes will not be guaranteed by any of the Company’s subsidiaries and will therefore
be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the
Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include but are not limited to financing the Company’s operations, repayment of debt, repurchases of shares of
the Company’s common stock and future business acquisitions.
Please refer to the Prospectus Supplement dated September 22, 2026
for additional information regarding the Notes offering and the material terms and conditions of the Notes. The foregoing summary of the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of (i)
the Underwriting Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1; (ii) the Base Indenture, filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on
January 14, 2022, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1; (iii) the Supplemental Indenture attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2; and (iv) the forms of Notes attached hereto as Exhibits 4.3 through 4.4,
inclusive, each of which are incorporated by reference herein.
