KATY, TEXAS (Globe Newswire — June 9, 2026) – Academy Sports and Outdoors, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASO) (“Academy” or the “Company” ) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended May 2, 2026.
“We were pleased with the continued improvement in our results in Q1, with total sales up 6.7%, driven by increases in both traffic and average ticket," said Steve Lawrence, Chief Executive Officer. "Based on our Q1 performance, we are raising the low end of our full-year guidance. While we expect inflationary pressures to continue impacting consumer spending for the remainder of the year, our goal is to build on the momentum in our business.

This page provides Academy Sports and Outdoors Inc. (ASO) earnings call transcripts from SEC 8-K filings along with AI-powered predictions for post-earnings price movements. Our machine learning models analyze historical earnings data, pre-earnings price patterns, volume changes, and volatility to predict 1-day, 5-day, and 20-day returns after each earnings release.
Earnings transcripts are sourced directly from SEC EDGAR filings. Predictions are generated using gradient boosting models trained on ASO's historical earnings reactions. All predicted returns are shown as percentages, and predicted prices are calculated from the closing price at the time of prediction. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
