"As part of the Company's review of its stores, we have identified about five stores for potential closure due to underperformance and lack of profitability."

"Sportsman's Warehouse has 148 locations spread across 32 different states. The brand is mostly centered around western states, with 17 stores in California, 14 in Washington, and 13 in Utah, where its headquarters are located in the Salt Lake City suburb of Midvale."

"Store closures are generally unsurprising these days, as many retail chains have been reducing their physical footprints. In just the outdoor sector, Camping World reported a net decrease of 10 store locations in 2025, including the consolidation of 17 locations."
