Big 5 Sporting Goods Corp Financials
Big 5 Sporting Goods Corp (BGFV) reported $795.5M in revenue for fiscal year 2024, down 10.1% from the prior fiscal year. This page shows its income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and key financial ratios.

A fixed store-cost base and shrinking merchandise margins are turning lower sales into a much deeper cash squeeze.
From FY2022 to FY2024, inventory fell by$43.2M while cash and equivalents fell by$20.1M , so liquid resources kept shrinking even as stock was reduced. Even after FY2023 produced operating cash flow of$18.5M , FY2024 slipped to-$11.4M , suggesting the prior cash support came largely from working-capital release rather than durable earnings.
