Financial Summary
Gart Sports Company is a sporting goods retailer in the midwest and western United States. For the 13 weeks ended 5/5/01, revenues fell 2% to $162.6 million. Net income rose 48% to $605 thousand. Revenues reflect soft sales of in-line skates, bikes and golf due to the unseasonably cold and wet weather. Earnings benefitted from increased margin as a result of the improved buying disciplines and improved replenishment and allocation of merchandise to the stores.
