Foot Locker began life as a speciality shoe brand of the Kinney Shoe Corporation, which had become a subsidiary of the F.W. Woolworth Company in 1963. By the 1990s, Foot Locker generated over 70% of Kinney Shoe Corp sales. In 1998, the Woolworth Corporation changed its name to Venator Group Inc, and in 2001 to Foot Locker Inc. A period of expansion followed – in 2004, Foot Locker acquired the Footaction USA brand and around 350 stores from Footstar. In 2013, the company acquired German retailer Runners Point Group.
In its full year 2017 financial results, Foot Locker reported sales of $7.78 billion, an increase of 0.2% on 2016 and the most in the company’s history as an athletic business. Full-year comparable-store sales decreased 3.1%. Excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations, total sales decreased 0.5%. Foot Locker’s net income fell to $284 million in 2017, or $2.22 per share, compared to net income of $664 million or $4.91 per share in 2016.
Between January 2010 and August 2015, the Foot Locker share price soared from $12 to $73. Since then, the shares have been a lot more volatile, falling back to under $30 in November 2017 before making a modest recovery to $52 in January 2018.
