  Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended January 28, 2023

  Filed April 13, 2023

  File No. 1-36401

  Ladies and Gentlemen:

  This letter sets forth the responses of Sportsman’s Warehouse Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the comments provided by the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in a letter dated September 20, 2023 (the “Comment Letter”) relating to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023, filed with the Commission by the Company on April 13, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).

  For your convenience, each comment of the Staff from the Comment Letter has been set forth in italics below and the Company’s responses have been provided immediately thereafter. Please note that the headings and numbering set forth below correspond to the headings and numbering reflected in the Comment Letter.

  Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended January 28, 2023

  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

  Non-GAAP Financial Measures, page 53

  1.We note your reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA here and in your press releases on Forms 8-K includes an adjustment for pre-opening expenses and that you have incurred these costs in every period from 2013 on. Please tell us how you determined that these costs are not normal, recurring, cash operating expenses. Refer to Question 100.01 of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations.

  Response: The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and will remove the pre-opening expenses from Adjusted EBITDA in future filings.

  Consolidated Statement of Income, page 60

  2.We note that you present gross profit which excludes depreciation and amortization expense. Please tell us your consideration of labeling cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). Also, tell us your consideration of not reporting a figure for income before depreciation in your statements of income. Refer to SAB Topic 11:B.

  Response: The Company advises the Staff that the depreciation and amortization attributable to cost of goods sold was immaterial for each of the previous three fiscal years.  The amount of depreciation and amortization allocable to cost of goods sold in each of the previous three fiscal years would have impacted cost of goods sold by less than 0.5%.  Because of the immaterial impact that depreciation and amortization would have had on the Company’s cost of goods sold and gross profit, the Company did not believe it was necessary to specify that costs of goods sold was exclusive of depreciation and amortization or to include depreciation and amortization expense in the Company’s gross profit calculation.

  The Company advises the Staff that in future filings, if applicable and material, it will change the reporting of gross profit to include amounts relating to depreciation and amortization.

Re:

Registration Statement on Form S-3

Submitted May 29, 2015

File No. 333-204517

 Dear Mr. Brazier:

On behalf of Sportsman’s Warehouse Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), this letter sets forth
the Company’s response to a verbal comment of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission we received by telephone on June 22, 2015 regarding the above referenced Registration Statement on Form S-3
(the “Registration Statement”).

 The Staff verbally requested that the Company add language to the Registration
Statement to the effect that the selling stockholders named in the prospectus included as part of the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”) may be deemed statutory underwriters pursuant to Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities
Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”).

 For the reasons set forth below, the Company respectfully submits that the
registration of the offer and sale of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) of the Company by the selling stockholders named in the Prospectus is not an indirect
primary offering on behalf of the Company and that, accordingly, the selling stockholders are not, and in no event should be considered, underwriters of the Shares.

 Mr. Brazier, June 30, 2015

Page 2

 In Securities Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation
(“C&DI”) 612.09, the Staff sets forth factors that it considers in determining whether an offering styled as a purported secondary offering should be recharacterized as a primary offering on behalf of an issuer:

•

how long the selling shareholder has held the shares,

•

the circumstances under which the selling shareholder received the shares,

•

the relationship of the selling shareholder to the issuer,

•

the number of shares being sold,

•

whether the selling shareholder is in the business of underwriting securities, and

•

whether under all the circumstances it appears that the seller is acting as a conduit for the issuer.

Applying the Staff’s guidance, the Company believes that any sale of Shares by the selling stockholders named in the Prospectus
constitutes a secondary offering and not an indirect primary offering of the Company’s Common Stock.

 How long the Selling Stockholders have held
the Shares, the circumstances under which the Selling Stockholders received the Shares and the relationship of the Selling Stockholders to the Company

The selling stockholders named in the Prospectus are New SEP SWH Holdings, L.P. (“New SEP”), SEP SWH Holdings, L.P.
(“SEP”), John V. Schaefer, and Kevan P. Talbot (collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”).

SEP SWH Holdings GP, LLC (“SEP GP”) is the general partner of both New SEP and SEP, and Seidler Equity Partners III,
L.P. (“SEP III”) is the sole member of SEP GP. Seidler Kutsenda Management Company, LLC, as the investment manager of SEP III, has ultimate voting and dispositive power over all of the shares owned by both New SEP and SEP. New SEP
and SEP initially invested in the Company in 2007. When the Company emerged from bankruptcy in August 2009, New SEP and SEP were issued all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. Each of New SEP and SEP sold a portion of its
shares in the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock in April 2014 (the “IPO”). New SEP currently owns 11,140,211 shares, or 26.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, and SEP owns 10,908,122
shares, or 26.0% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, for a combined aggregate of 52.5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

Headquartered in Marina del Rey, California, Seidler Equity Partners LP (“Seidler”) is a private equity investment
firm with over $1 billion in capital under management. Seidler focuses on established, middle-market businesses that are leaders in their markets. Seidler also has significant experience managing investments in consumer and retail businesses.

 Mr. Brazier, June 30, 2015

Page 3

 Mr. Schaefer has served as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and
as a director since August 2009. Mr. Schaefer purchased shares of restricted nonvoting common stock of the Company in September 2010, February 2011, and November 2011. These shares of restricted nonvoting common stock automatically
converted, by their terms, into shares of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Company’s IPO in April 2014. Mr. Schaefer was also granted restricted stock units in December 2013, a portion of which subsequently vested and
were settled in shares of Common Stock in April 2014 and April 2015.

 Mr. Schaefer currently beneficially owns 1,503,350 shares, or
3.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

 Mr. Talbot has been employed as an officer of the Company since June
2002, including as the Chief Financial Officer since June 2009 and as Secretary since December 2013. Mr. Talbot purchased shares of restricted nonvoting common stock in September 2010, February 2011 and November 2011. These shares of
restricted nonvoting common stock automatically converted, by their terms, into shares of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Company’s IPO in April 2014.

Mr. Talbot currently beneficially owns 442,307 shares, or 1.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

Each Selling Stockholder has held the shares of Common Stock of the Company for a significant length of time. No Selling Stockholder acquired
its respective equity interests in the Company with a view to distribution or to raise proceeds on behalf of the Company. Moreover, following completion of the IPO, each Selling Stockholder continued to hold shares of the Company’s Common
Stock, and Seidler remained the majority owner of the Company’s Common Stock.

 For the reasons set forth above, we believe that it is
clear that none of the Selling Stockholders acquired its equity interest in the Company for the purpose of distributing it on behalf of the Company or engaging in an indirect primary offering on the Company’s behalf.

The number of Shares being sold

 None of
the Selling Stockholders currently intend to sell their shares of Common Stock immediately upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. While the number of Shares to be sold in any offering by the Selling Stockholders has not yet been
determined, the Selling Stockholders may sell a significant percentage of their ownership interests in the Company in a registered offering using the Prospectus.

New SEP and SEP, together, own 52.5% of the outstanding shares of Common of the Company. Even if New SEP and SEP were to sell all of the
Shares by means of an offering using the Prospectus, the sale of the Shares by New SEP and SEP are part of a larger plan of divestiture and diversification by Seidler, which made its initial investment in the Company in 2007. The other Selling
Stockholders, Mr. Schaefer and Mr. Talbot, each own less than 4% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.

 Mr. Brazier, June 30, 2015

Page 4

 For the reasons set forth in this response, the Company believes that the Shares being
registered under the Registration Statement will, at the time of any registered offering, clearly be sold for the benefit of the applicable Selling Stockholders and not for the Company.

Whether the Selling Stockholders are in the business of underwriting securities

None of the Selling Stockholders are in the business of underwriting securities. Seidler is a private equity investment firm that focuses on
investing in established, middle-market businesses that are leaders in their markets and does not have any affiliates that are registered broker-dealers. Mr. Schaefer and Mr. Talbot are full time executives at the Company.

The underwriters in any offering by means of the Prospectus, not the Selling Stockholders, will undertake the customary responsibility of
contacting investors, marketing the securities, and selling and distributing the Shares to the public. The Company, the applicable Selling Stockholder(s) and the underwriters would enter into an underwriting agreement in connection with any offering
of the Shares providing for, among other things, the purchase by the underwriters of the Shares from the applicable Selling Stockholder(s) (as is customary). The Company would make the customary issuer-oriented representations, warranties, covenants
and indemnities in the underwriting agreement. The applicable Selling Stockholder(s), on the other hand, would only be making limited representations and warranties as to power and authority to enter into the underwriting agreement and sell the
Shares, ownership and transfer of the Shares being sold, and the satisfaction of specified consent requirements.

 Further, to impose
potential Section 11 liability on the Selling Stockholders would require the Selling Stockholders to undertake heightened due diligence of the Company, which none of the Selling Stockholders traditionally perform or are necessarily properly
equipped to undertake in the manner that customary underwriters do.

 Whether under all the circumstances it appears that the Selling Stockholders are
acting as a conduit for the Company

 The Registration Statement has none of the indicia of abuse that the Staff has focused on in the
past when evaluating whether secondary offerings are actually disguised primary offerings. Each of the Selling Stockholders has clearly made a long-term investment in the Company as evidenced by continuous beneficial ownership of the outstanding
Common Stock since 2007 (in the case of affiliates of Seidler) or September 2010 (in the case of Mr. Schaefer and Mr. Talbot). The Registration Statement is part of Seidler’s plan to monetize its investment in the Company, and the
Company will not receive any of the proceeds from sales of the Shares by the Selling Stockholders under the Registration Statement. The Selling Stockholders are not acting as a conduit for the Company for capital raising purposes and are not in the
business of underwriting securities. Instead, each of the Selling Stockholders in their current state would have liability under Section 15 of the Securities Act as control persons, which we believe adequately serves to protect the interest of
investors rather than potentially deeming the Selling Stockholders as underwriters where the facts do not warrant it.

 Mr. Brazier, June 30, 2015

Page 5

 For the foregoing reasons, the Company believes that the Registration Statement is not an
indirect primary offering of the Shares of the Company and, accordingly, that the Selling Stockholders are not, and should not be considered, underwriters of the Shares.

Registration Statement on Form S-1

File No. 333-194421

Dear Ms. Ransom:

 On behalf of
Sportsman’s Warehouse Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), this letter sets forth an updated stock split ratio to our letter to the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission” or the “SEC”) dated April 1, 2014 (the “April 1 Letter”) regarding the above referenced Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration
Statement”).

 In the April 1 Letter, the Company supplemented its response to the Staff’s comment 34 of its
letter to the Company dated January 10, 2014 relating to the Registration Statement. The Company hereby notifies the Staff that the Company has revised its expected stock split ratio to an expected 2.87-for-1 stock split by the Company prior to
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The estimated price range of $11.00 to $13.00 set forth in the April 1 Letter remains unchanged. The $12.00 per share midpoint of the Price Range equates to $34.44 per share before giving effect
to the revised expected stock split. As a result of the revised expected stock split, the estimated fair market value of the restricted stock unit awards granted on November 18, 2013 and December 10, 2013 is $7.06 per share on a post-split
basis ($20.26 per share on a pre-split basis).

 Ms. Mara L. Ransom, April 3, 2014

 As noted in the April 1 Letter, the Company intends to supplement its disclosure under
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Restricted Stock Unit Awards and Common Stock Valuation” in its next filing to include the following disclosure:

“We and the underwriters determined the price range of our common stock to be between $11.00 and $13.00 per share (on a post-split
basis). We believe that the difference in value reflected between the midpoint of the estimated price range of $12.00 and our determination of fair value of our restricted nonvoting common stock of $7.06 per share (on a post-split basis) on
November 18, 2013 and December 10, 2013 is primarily the result of the following factors:

•

the valuation prepared as of September 30, 2013 contained multiple valuation scenarios, including this offering to which we assigned a probability weighting of 60 percent;

•

our fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 reflected a 3.0% growth in gross profit and a 233.6% growth in net income from the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 (or 2.0% growth in net income excluding the impact of $4.9
million in one-time charges for the repayment of our term loan in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013); and

•

the estimated offering price necessarily assumes that this offering has occurred and a public market for our common stock has been created. Therefore, the estimated offering price excludes the marketability and
illiquidity discounts used in our September 30, 2013 valuation report.”

 The Company believes that the fair value
of a share of restricted nonvoting common stock applicable to each restricted stock unit award was appropriate at the applicable valuation dates and demonstrated the efforts of the Company’s board of directors and the Company to consider all
relevant factors available at the valuation dates. The Company believes that the proposed disclosure set forth above will provide investors with a clear indication of the intervening factors that have led to the increase in the fair value of the
Company’s common stock.

 ***

In addition, the Company supplements its response to the Staff’s comment 34 of its letter to the Company dated January 10, 2014
relating to the Registration Statement. The Company hereby notifies the Staff that it currently estimates the price range (the “Price Range”) for its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of its common stock to
be between $11.00 and $13.00 per share (after giving effect to an expected 2.81-for-1 stock split by the Company prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement). The $12.00 per share midpoint of the Price Range equates to $33.72 per share
before giving effect to the expected stock split.

 Ms. Mara L. Ransom, April 1, 2014

 Page

 As disclosed on page 52 of the Registration Statement, the Company granted 117,450 and
298,490 restricted stock unit awards (on a pre-split basis) with respect to its restricted nonvoting common stock on November 18, 2013 and December 10, 2013, respectively. As there has been no public market for the Company’s common
stock to date, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) estimated the fair market value of each of these awards at $20.26 per share (on pre-split basis, or $7.21 per share on a post-split basis). The Registration
Statement, on pages 52 and 53, discloses the assumptions and methodologies the Company’s Board employed in determining the fair market value of the restricted stock unit awards.

The Company respectfully advises the Staff that it believes the difference between the fair market value of Common Stock of $7.21 per share
(on a post-split basis) as of November 18, 2013 and December 10, 2013 and the midpoint of the estimated price range of $12.00 per share is attributable to the updated market conditions presented to the Company by the underwriters that were
used to help determine the initial public offering price range. At the time the restricted stock units were granted on November 18, 2013 and December 10, 2013, the underwriters had not yet provided to the Company a proposed price range for
the Offering. As is typical in initial public offerings, the Price Range for the Offering was not derived using a formal determination of fair value but was determined by negotiation between the Company and the underwriters. Among the factors that
were considered in setting the Price Range were the following:

•

an analysis of the typical valuation ranges seen in recent initial public offerings for companies in the Company’s industry;

•

the general condition of the securities markets and the recent market prices of, and the demand for, publicly traded common stock of generally comparable companies;

•

an assumption that there would be a receptive public trading market for outdoor sporting goods retail companies such as the Company; and

•

an assumption that there would be sufficient demand for the Company’s common stock to support an offering of the size contemplated by the Registration Statement.

The Company intends to supplement its disclosure under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Restricted Stock Unit Awards and
Common Stock Valuation” in its next filing to include the following disclosure:

 “We and the underwriters determined the price
range of our common stock to be between $11.00 and $13.00 per share (on a post-split basis). We believe that the difference in value reflected between the midpoint of the estimated price range of $12.00 and our determination of fair value of our
restricted nonvoting common stock of $7.21 per share (on a post-split basis) on November 18, 2013 and December 10, 2013 is primarily the result of the following factors:

•

the valuation prepared as of September 30, 2013 contained multiple valuation scenarios, including this offering to which we assigned a probability weighting of 60 percent;

•

our fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 reflected a 3.0% growth in gross profit and a 233.6% growth in net income from the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 (or 2.0% growth in net income excluding the impact of $4.9

•

the estimated offering price necessarily assumes that this offering has occurred and a public market for our common stock has been created. Therefore, the estimated offering price excludes the marketability and
illiquidity discounts used in our September 30, 2013 valuation report.”

 The Company believes that the fair value
of a share of restricted nonvoting common stock applicable to each restricted stock unit award was appropriate at the applicable valuation dates and demonstrated the efforts of the Board and the Company to consider all relevant factors available at
the valuation dates. The Company believes that the proposed disclosure set forth above will provide investors with a clear indication of the intervening factors that have led to the increase in the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

Amendment No. 1 to Draft Registration Statement on Form S-1

Submitted January 28, 2014

CIK No.
0001132105

Dear Ms. Ransom:

 On behalf of
Sportsman’s Warehouse Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), this letter sets forth the Company’s responses to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission” or the “SEC”) set forth in your letter dated February 14, 2014 (the “Comment Letter”), regarding the above referenced Amendment No. 1 to Draft Registration
Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”). The Company has also revised the Registration Statement (the “Revised Registration Statement”) in response to the Staff’s comments and is filing
concurrently with this letter the Revised Registration Statement, which reflects these revisions.

 For the convenience of the
Staff, each comment from the Comment Letter corresponds to the numbered paragraph in the Comment Letter and is restated in italics prior to the response to such comment. Capitalized terms used and not defined have the meanings given in the Revised
Registration Statement. Page and caption references in the text of this letter correspond to pages and captions in the Revised Registration Statement.

 REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-1

Prospectus Summary, page 1

1.
We note your response to comment 9 in our letter dated January 10, 2013 and your support materials submitted. It appears that the reason opening stores are “less capital intensive” for you is due in
part or in whole to the fact that your competitors choose to construct their stores while you choose to lease yours. Please revise your related disclosures to reflect this aspect of your expansion strategy.

Response:

 In response to
the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its disclosure on pages 1 and 58 of the Revised Registration Statement to indicate that opening stores is “less capital-intensive” for the Company because the Company’s “no
frills” store layout requires less initial cash investment to build out and the Company’s stores generally require less square footage than the stores of its competitors. While the Company does lease its stores, the Company notes for the
Staff that it generally has to undergo significant renovations to build out any existing leased space in order for the store layout to meet the Company’s requirements and to be consistent with its other stores. The Company believes the primary
reason that its initial costs for opening a store are less than its competitors is due to the fact that it has a smaller, “no frills” approach to its store layouts than its competitors. For example, as disclosed on page 1 of the
Revised Registration Statement, the Company’s stores range from 30,000 to 65,000 square feet, whereas Cabela’s stores range from 40,000 to 246,000 square feet, based on its most recent annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission,
and the stores for Bass Pro Shops and Gander Mountain range from 27,000 to 300,000 square feet and 21,000 to 123,000 square feet, respectively, each based on information available on their websites.

We have reviewed your response to comment 32 from our letter dated January 10, 2014 and reissue our comment. Please quantify for us your restricted net assets as defined in Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X as
of the end of most recently completed year and tell us how you computed the amount. If the restricted net assets exceed 25% of your consolidated net assets, please provide the disclosures required by paragraphs 3(i) and (ii) of Rule 4-08(e) of
Regulation S-X and Schedule I prescribed by Rule 12-04 of Regulation S-X as required by Rule 5-04 of Regulation S-X.

Response:

 In response to
the Staff’s comment, the Company advises the Staff that the parent company has no assets other than investments in the consolidated subsidiaries and all

 Ms. Mara L. Ransom, March 7, 2014

 Page

of the net assets of the consolidated subsidiaries (after intercompany eliminations) are restricted and may not be transferred to the parent company without the consent of the lenders. Because
all of the net assets of the consolidated group are held by consolidated subsidiaries, the disclosures as required by paragraphs 3(i) and (ii) of Rule 4-08(e) of Regulation S-X and Schedule I prescribed by Rule 12-04 of Regulation S-X as
required by Rule 5-04 of Regulation S-X would be the same as the consolidated financial statements. As such, the Company has revised its disclosure on pages F-14 and F-28 to indicate that all of the net assets of the consolidated subsidiaries, which
constitute the net assets of the consolidated group, are restricted.

 Schedule II—Valuation and Qualifying Accounts, page F-20

3.
We note your disclosure that the sales return activity represents “the gross margin effect of sales returns during the respective years.” Please tell us if you record the reduction in revenues based on the
gross profit of the related transactions or based on the total estimated revenue related to estimated returns with a related credit to cost of sales. See ASC 605-15-25-1 and 605-15-45-1.

Response:

 In response to
the Staff’s comment, the Company advises the Staff that the Company records the reduction in revenues based on the total estimated revenue related to estimated returns with a related credit to cost of sales.

 that comply with public company effectiv e dates.   Include a similar statement in your

16. We note that you are seeking a waiver from the requirement to use all the proceeds from
your offering to pay down your revolving credit facility.  With a view to understanding
why you plan to seek a waiver when you otherwise have no plans for the proceeds, please
elaborate upon why you plan to seek a waiver.  Also, please ensure that you continue to
update your prospectus concerning this issue as your registration statement is processed.
Please include a risk factor addressing the consequences should you no t obtain a waiver

example, please clarify whether each visit includes a purchase made by a customer and
whether you distinguish between repeat customers in arriving at your total.

21. Where you identify intermediate causes of changes in your operating results, also
describe the reasons underlying the intermediate causes.  For example, you indicate on
page 46 that your same store sales increased 16.2% during the first three quarters of fiscal
year 2012 compared to the same period in fiscal 2011 due to an “overall general increase
in demand for our products.”  Please expand your disclosures to provide management’s
insight into the specific factors that contributed to this sales trend, and if possible,
quantify the impact of each underlying factor.  See Item 303(a) of Regulation S -K and
SEC Release No. 33 -8350.

22. We note your disclosure on page 19 that government regulations, particularly regulations
relating to the sale of firearms and ammunition, may negatively impact the demand for
your products and the ability to conduct your bus iness.  You also disclose on page 20 that
sales of firearms represent a significant percentage of your net sales and are critical in
drawing customers to your stores.  Considering the significance of firearms and
ammunitions to your net sales and the poten tial for restrictions on the future sale of such
products, please quantify, either in dollars or as a percentage of sales, your firearm and
ammunition sales for each period presented.  If you do not believe such information
would be useful to investors or enable them to view the company through the eyes of
management, please explain to us the reasons for such a determination.

Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 48

23. Quantify your future material commitments for capital expenditures and the source of
funds you intend to use to fulfill such commitments.  See Item 303(a)(2)(i) of Regulation
S-K.

24. Please provide a more informative analysis and discussion of changes in operating cash
flows, including changes in working capital components, for each period p resented.  In
doing so, please explain the underlying reasons and implications of material changes
between periods to provide investors with an understanding of trends and variability in
cash flows.  For example, given the significant number of new stores opened during fiscal
2013, you may wish to quantify the impact these new stores had on your cash flows, if
possible.  Please ensure your discussion and analysis is not merely a recitation of changes

 evident from the financial statements.  Refer to Item 303 (a) of Regulation S -K and SEC
Release No. 33 -8350.

Critical Accounting Policies, page 50

25. Please revise the discussion of your critical accounting policies and estimates to focus on
the assumptions and uncertainties that underlie your critical accounting estimates, rather
than duplicating certain of the accounting policy disclosures in the fina ncial statement
footnotes.  Discuss the sensitivity of reported results to changes in your assumptions,
judgments, and estimates, including the likelihood of obtaining materially different
results if different assumptions were applied.

Contractual Oblig ations, page 52

26. We note  your disclosure on page 67 that all of your leases provide for additional
payments associated with common area maintenance, real estate, taxes and insurance.
Please include a footnote below the contractual obligations table to ind icate that the
operating lease obligation amounts presented do not include these additional obligations.
Since this table is aimed at providing additional information that is material to
understanding a company’s cash requirements, you may want to disclos e amounts paid in
prior years for such items in order to provide a context for the reader to understand the
impact of these charges on your total lease obligations.  See Item 303(a)(5) of Regulation
S-K and footnote 46 to SEC Release No. 33 -8350.

Business , page 55

27. We note your indication on page 59 that you intend to modify 14 stores in 2014.  In an
appropriate place in your Management’s Discussion and Analysis, please disclose the
historical and projected costs of such remodels.

Executive Compensation,  page 81

28. Please update this section to provide compensation information for the recently
completed fiscal year.  In this regard, refer to Section 217.11  under “Interpretive
Responses Regarding Particular Situations” of our Compliance and Disclosure
Interp retations relating to Regulation S -K.

Executive Incentive Plans, page 82
