Two Additional Locations Scheduled to Open by Mid-November 2022

WEST JORDAN, Utah, Oct. 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sportsman’s Warehouse Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: SPWH), www.sportsmans.com, a premier specialty outdoor retailer that provides outstanding gear and exceptional service to inspire outdoor memories, recently opened new stores in Seminole, Florida, Eastgate, Ohio and Santee, California. The company also expects to open two additional locations this year, before the start of the holiday shopping season, in Montrose, Colorado and Jacksonville, Florida.

These five new stores will offer a combined 127,000+ square feet of quality, brand-name hunting, fishing, camping, shooting sports, apparel, and footwear merchandise at everyday low prices. Sportsman’s stores are now located in 30 states across the U.S. With the opening of the five new locations, this will include 16 stores in California, 8 in Colorado, 3 in Florida, and the first ever store in Ohio.

“With the execution of our flexible store format strategy, we remain nimble and will adapt our store footprint to match the size and demands of the markets we enter,” said Jon Barker, Sportsman’s Warehouse Chief Executive Officer. “The size of these five stores will range from 12,000 square feet to just under 40,000 square feet, allowing us to penetrate underserved markets both large and small. Once we officially launch in Jacksonville, Florida, we will have opened 9 new stores in 2022, with a total of 131 stores in our fleet. Over the next few years, we expect to accelerate our new store expansion strategy and are targeting having 190 to 210 total stores in our fleet by the end of fiscal year 2025.”

These new locations provide an easy-in, easy-out experience for families looking to gear up and enjoy the outdoors. Additionally, they are assorted with region-specific items, as the demand for high-quality outdoor equipment, gear and accessories continues to be strong.
