To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dicks Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive
income, changes in stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 28, 2006.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dick’s
Sporting Goods, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 28, 2006 and January 29, 2005, and the results of their operations and their
cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended January 28, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of January 28, 2006, based on the criteria
established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission and our report dated March 20, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on managements assessment of the
effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting.
