EXHIBIT 99.1

Sportsman's Warehouse Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results

MIDVALE, Utah, Aug. 28, 2019 (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 August 3, 2019.

Jon Barker, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased with our second quarter results, which were above our expectations on the top line, including a comparable store sales increase of 1.7%, and towards the high end of our outlook on the bottom line. This performance is a testament to our strong competitive positioning, as we remain one of few national retailers dedicated to outdoor sports, including hunting, with an expansive breadth of assortment at everyday low prices and a high level of customer service. This, combined with the ongoing success of our merchandising initiatives, customer acquisition and engagement focus, and omni-channel strategy, is driving our outperformance relative to the industry.”

Mr. Barker continued, “We will continue to focus on our strategic growth priorities in the second half of the year with an increased focus on innovation through various initiatives including a small format concept test shop, expansion of our partnerships with select licensed firearms dealers across the country, and the continued roll out of our used firearm program. We expect continued progress against these strategic priorities which, combined with our omni-channel focus, will reinforce our competitive positioning and drive market share gains.”

For the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019:

For the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019:

Balance sheet highlights as of August 3, 2019:                                                             

Third Quarter and Fiscal Year 2019 Outlook:

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2019, net sales are expected to be in the range of $231.0 million to $239.0 million based on a change in same store sales in the range of 1.5% to 4.5% compared to the corresponding period of fiscal year 2018. Net income is expected to be in the range of $9.0 million to $11.7 million with diluted earnings per share of $0.21 to $0.27 on a weighted average of approximately 43.2 million estimated common shares outstanding.

For fiscal year 2019, net sales are expected to be in the range of $866.0 million to $884.0 million based on a change in same store sales in the range of 0.0% to 2.0% compared to fiscal year 2018. Adjusted net income is expected to be in the range of $20.8 million to $26.0 million with adjusted earnings per diluted share of $0.48 to $0.60 on a weighted average of approximately 43.2 million estimated common shares outstanding, when adjusted for the executive transition costs incurred in the first half of fiscal 2019 relating to the transition of the Company’s CFO and the recruitment and hiring of various key members of the senior management team (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).

Conference Call Information:

A conference call to discuss second quarter fiscal 2019 financial results is scheduled for today, August 28, 2019, 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.sportsmans.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 define adjusted income from operations and adjusted net income as income from operations and net income, respectively, in each case, plus expenses incurred relating to the transition of our CFO and the recruitment and hiring of various other key members of management, charges incurred in conjunction with the retirement of the Company’s former CEO and the write-off of deferred financing fees and debt discount associated with the Company’s prior term loan refinanced in the second fiscal quarter of 2018, as applicable. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is diluted earnings per share excluding the impact of expenses incurred relating to the transition of our CFO and the recruitment and hiring of  other key members of management, charges incurred in conjunction with the retirement of the Company’s former CEO and the write-off of deferred financing fees and debt discount associated with the Company’s prior term loan refinanced in the second fiscal quarter of 2018, as applicable. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, pre-opening expenses, 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, except for adjusted interest expense which is reconciled above. 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 earnings 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, statements regarding our strategic initiatives and our outlook for the third quarter and full fiscal year 2019.  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 ability to integrate its new Chief Financial Officer; 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 February 2, 2019 which was filed with the SEC on March 29, 2019 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.
