Shares of Dick's Sporting Goods surged as much as 14% Tuesday after the company reported quarterly earnings that handily beat Wall Street expectations.

Here's what the company reported versus what analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expected:

• Adjusted earnings per share: 52 cents per share reported, versus 38 cents per share (expected)
• Revenue: $1.96 billion reported, versus $1.91 billion (expected)

"As we head into the holiday season, we remain very enthusiastic about our business," said CEO Ed Stack in a press release. The retailer also saw growth across its three primary categories of hardlines, apparel, and footwear, he said.

At the same time, eCommerce sales increased 13%. The company opened new eCommerce fulfillment centers during the quarter and improved its website, according to a press release.

The company has a consensus target price of $41.78 and six "buy" ratings, 17 "hold" ratings, and one "sell" rating according to Bloomberg data.
