Dick's Sporting Goods Inc DKS shares are falling on Wednesday alongside several other retailers after Target Corp TGT announced worse-than-expected earnings results.
Target reported first-quarter earnings of $2.19 per share, which missed the estimate of $3.07 per share, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
Operating income margin rate also came in below expectations at 5.3% in the first quarter compared with 9.8% in 2021, driven by gross margin pressure reflecting actions to reduce excess inventory as well as higher freight and transportation costs.
