As a follow up to my initial post on Academy Sports + Outdoors, here is a link to my financial model and discounted cash flow analysis. Updates will be made quarterly.
The company has committed to returning 100% of free cash flow back to investors through long-term debt pay down, dividends, and share repurchases. At current market value, the company will generate and return approximately 85% of their market cap to investors over the next five years AND expand store count by 50%.
In the next five years, Academy can achieve:
Pay off long-term debt, net of current cash position ~$583M
Pay annual dividend of ~$28M ($140M total)
Repurchase ~$2.75B of shares (about 65% of current market cap)
Expand store count from 270 to ~400
