The working capital turnover ratio for Dick’s Sporting Goods Inc has shown a fluctuating trend over the given time period. The ratio has ranged from a low of 4.95 in April 30, 2022, to a high of 6.50 in February 3, 2024. Overall, the average working capital turnover ratio is approximately 5.74, indicating that, on average, the company is able to generate $5.74 in net sales revenue for every dollar of working capital invested.

The increasing trend in the working capital turnover ratio from 2022 to 2024 suggests that the company has been effectively managing its working capital to generate more sales revenue. This improvement may indicate a more efficient utilization of current assets and liabilities to support the company's operations.

However, the slight decrease in the ratio in the most recent period, from 6.50 in February 3, 2024, to 5.75 in January 31, 2025, could raise a concern regarding the company's ability to maintain or further improve its working capital efficiency in the future. It may be important for investors and stakeholders to monitor this ratio closely in upcoming periods to assess the company's working capital management performance.
