NIKE, INC. REPORTS FISCAL 2025 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

BEAVERTON, Ore., Oct. 1, 2024 — NIKE, Inc. (NYSE:NKE) today reported fiscal 2025 financial results for its first quarter ended August 31, 2024.

•First quarter revenues were $11.6 billion, down 10 percent on a reported basis compared to the prior year and down 9 percent on a currency-neutral basis*
•NIKE Direct revenues were $4.7 billion, down 13 percent on a reported basis and down 12 percent on a currency-neutral basis
•Wholesale revenues were $6.4 billion, down 8 percent on a reported basis and down 7 percent on a currency-neutral basis
•Gross margin increased 120 basis points to 45.4 percent
•Diluted earnings per share was $0.70 for the first quarter, down 26 percent

On September 19, 2024, NIKE, Inc. announced that the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Elliott Hill as President and CEO of the Company, effective as of October 14, 2024. Given the Company is reporting Q1 results in the midst of a CEO transition, it will address its approach to guidance on the conference call. In addition, the Company's previously announced Investor Day is being postponed.

"NIKE's first quarter results largely met our expectations. A comeback at this scale takes time, but we see early wins — from momentum in key sports to accelerating our pace of newness and innovation," said Matthew Friend, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, NIKE, Inc. "Our teams are energized as Elliott Hill returns to lead NIKE's next stage of growth."

First Quarter Income Statement Review

•Revenues for NIKE, Inc. were $11.6 billion, down 10 percent on a reported basis compared to the prior year and down 9 percent on a currency-neutral basis.
◦NIKE Brand Revenues were $11.1 billion, down 10 percent on a reported basis and down 9 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to declines across all geographies.
◦NIKE Direct revenues were $4.7 billion, down 13 percent on a reported basis and down 12 percent on a currency-neutral basis, primarily due to a 20 percent decrease in NIKE Brand Digital, partially offset by a 1 percent increase in NIKE-owned stores.
◦Wholesale revenues were $6.4 billion, down 8 percent on a reported basis and down 7 percent on a currency-neutral basis.
◦Revenues for Converse were $501 million, down 15 percent on a reported basis and down 14 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to declines across all territories.
•Gross margin increased 120 basis points to 45.4 percent, primarily due to lower NIKE Brand product costs, lower warehousing and logistics costs, and benefits from strategic pricing actions from the prior year.
•Selling and administrative expense decreased 2 percent to $4.0 billion.
◦Demand creation expense was $1.2 billion, up 15 percent, primarily due to an increase in brand marketing expense, reflecting investment in key sports events.
◦Operating overhead expense decreased 7 percent to $2.8 billion, primarily due to lower wage-related expenses.
•The effective tax rate was 19.6 percent compared to 12.0 percent for the same period last year, primarily due to a one-time item benefit in the first quarter of the prior year provided by the delay of the effective date of U.S. foreign tax credit regulations.
•Net income was $1.1 billion, down 28 percent, and Diluted earnings per share was $0.70, a decrease of 26 percent.

August 31, 2024 Balance Sheet Review

•Inventories for NIKE, Inc. were $8.3 billion, down 5 percent compared to the prior year, reflecting product mix shifts and lower product input costs.
•Cash and equivalents and short-term investments were $10.3 billion, up approximately $1.5 billion from last year, as cash generated by operations was partially offset by share repurchases, cash dividends and capital expenditures.

Shareholder Returns

NIKE continues to have a strong track record of consistently increasing returns to shareholders, including 22 consecutive years of increasing dividend payouts.

In the first quarter, the Company returned approximately $1.8 billion to shareholders, including:
•Dividends of $558 million, up 6 percent from the prior year.
•Share repurchases of $1.2 billion, reflecting 14.8 million shares retired as part of the Company’s four-year, $18 billion program approved by the Board of Directors in June 2022.

1The percent change has been calculated using actual exchange rates in use during the comparative prior year period and is provided to enhance the visibility of the underlying business trends by excluding the impact of translation arising from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure when evaluating the Company's performance, including when making financial and operating decisions. Additionally, management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with additional financial information that should be considered when assessing the Company's underlying business performance and trends. References to this measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
2 Global Brand Divisions revenues include NIKE Brand licensing and other miscellaneous revenues that are not part of a geographic operating segment.
3 Corporate revenues primarily consist of foreign currency hedge gains and losses related to revenues generated by entities within the NIKE Brand geographic operating segments and Converse, but managed through the Company's central foreign exchange risk management program.
