EXHIBIT 99.1

Sportsman's Warehouse Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results

MIDVALE, Utah, Aug. 17, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sportsman's Warehouse Holdings, Inc. ("Sportsman's" or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:SPWH) today announced financial results for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 29, 2017.

For the thirteen weeks ended July 29, 2017:

John Schaefer, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Our second quarter topline results were in line with our expectations given the anticipated continued softness in firearm demand as we anniversaried difficult comparisons from the Orlando tragedy in June 2016. Our better than expected bottom line results were driven by stronger gross margins resulting primarily from the higher margin product mix shift that we experienced in the second quarter. We remained focused on continuing to capture market share during the quarter and are encouraged by the progress we made against our strategic priorities of expanding our private label segment, maximizing our loyalty program, investing in our best-in-class customer service and enhancing our e-commerce platform.”

Mr. Schaefer continued, “For the remainder of the year, we continue to expect softness in firearm demand until we anniversary the pre-election run up that drove increased demand in our firearm and ammunition categories last year. Despite the still challenging operating environment, we will continue to execute our key growth priorities that will be centered around driving same store sales, elevating our omni-channel experience and paying down debt as we focus on delivering long-term sustainable growth.”

For the twenty-six weeks ended July 29, 2017:

Balance sheet highlights as of July 29, 2017:                                                           

During the second quarter, the Company exercised the available $15.0 million accordion feature on its senior secured revolving credit facility, increasing the line of credit to $150.0 million.  As part of this amendment, the Company also extended the maturity date, decreased the interest rate by 25 basis points and lowered certain fees on the line of credit as described in the 8-K previously filed with the SEC on July 24, 2017.

Third Quarter and Fiscal Year 2017 Outlook:

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2017, net sales are expected to be in the range of $220.0 million to $225.0 million based on a same store sales decline in the range of 6.0% to 8.0% compared to the corresponding period of fiscal year 2016. Net income is expected to be in the range of $10.0 million to $11.2 million with diluted earnings per share of $0.23 to $0.26 on a weighted average of approximately 42.8 million estimated common shares outstanding.

For fiscal year 2017, net sales are expected to be in the range of $825.0 million to $835.0 million based on a same store sales decline in the range of 5.0% to 6.0% compared to fiscal year 2016. Adjusted net income is expected to be in the range of $25.7 million to $28.4 million with adjusted earnings per diluted share of $0.60 to $0.66 on a weighted average of approximately 42.8 million estimated common shares outstanding, when adjusted for the professional fees and other fees incurred in connection with the evaluation of a strategic acquisition in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).

The Company's fiscal year 2017 will include 53 weeks, while fiscal year 2016 included 52 weeks. The estimated fiscal year 2017 impact of the additional week is roughly $10.0 to $12.0 million in revenue and approximately $0.01 on earnings per share. There is no impact on expected same store sales as those are presented on a 52 week comparative basis.

Conference Call Information:

A conference call to discuss second quarter 2017 financial results is scheduled for today, August 17, 2017, at 4:30 PM Eastern Time. The conference call will be webcast and may be accessed via the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at www.sportsmanswarehouse.com.

Non-GAAP Information

This press release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”): adjusted income from operations, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA. We defined adjusted income from operations as income from operations plus professional and other fees incurred in connection with the evaluation of a strategic acquisition and secondary offering expenses.  Adjusted net income is net income plus professional and other fees incurred in connection with the evaluation of a strategic acquisition, secondary offering expenses and prior year tax credits.   Adjusted diluted earnings per share is diluted earnings per share excluding the impact of professional and other fees incurred in connection with the evaluation of a strategic acquisition, secondary offering expenses and prior year tax credits. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, pre-opening expenses, secondary offering expenses, professional fees, and other gains, losses and expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing expenses. The Company has reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures under “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures” in this release. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide its management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of the Company’s business and facilitate a more meaningful comparison of its diluted income per share and actual results on a period-over-period basis. The Company has provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of its ongoing operations. Other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these items differently than the Company does. Each of these measures is not a measure of performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to, our outlook for the third quarter and full fiscal year 2017.  Investors can identify these statements by the fact that they use words such as "continue", "expect", "may", “opportunity”, "plan", "future", “ahead” and similar terms and phrases. The Company cannot assure investors that future developments affecting the Company will be those that it has anticipated. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to risks relating to the Company’s retail-based business model, general economic conditions and consumer spending, the Company’s concentration of stores in the Western United States, competition in the outdoor activities and sporting goods market, changes in consumer demands, the Company’s expansion into new markets and planned growth, current and future government regulations, risks related to the Company’s continued retention of its key management, the Company’s distribution center, quality or safety concerns about the Company’s merchandise, events that may affect the Company’s vendors, trade restrictions, and other factors that are set forth in the Company's filings with the SEC, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2017 which was filed with the SEC on March 24, 2017 and the Company’s other public filings made with the SEC and available at www.sec.gov. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if any of the Company’s assumptions prove incorrect, the Company’s actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this release speaks only as of the date on which the Company makes it. Factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable securities laws.
