"We delivered third quarter results in line with our expectations, and our teams continue to execute with discipline," said Matthew Friend, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, NIKE, Inc.

Third Quarter Income Statement Review

Revenues for NIKE, Inc. were $11.3 billion, flat on a reported basis and down 3 percent on a currency-neutral basis.

NIKE Brand revenues were $11.0 billion, up 1 percent on a reported basis and down 2 percent on a currency-neutral basis, primarily due to declines in EMEA and Greater China, partially offset by growth in North America.

Wholesale revenues were $6.5 billion, up 5 percent on a reported basis and up 1 percent on a currency-neutral basis, primarily due to growth in North America.

NIKE Direct revenues were $4.5 billion, down 4 percent on a reported basis and down 7 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to a 9 percent decrease in NIKE Brand Digital and a 5 percent decrease in NIKE-owned stores.

Revenues for Converse were $264 million, down 35 percent on a reported basis and down 37 percent on a currency-neutral basis, due to declines across all territories.

Gross margin decreased 130 basis points to 40.2 percent, primarily due to higher tariffs in North America.

Selling and administrative expense increased 2 percent to $4.0 billion.

Demand creation expense was $1.1 billion, flat compared to the prior year, as higher sports marketing expense and unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates were offset by lower brand marketing expense.

Operating overhead expense was $2.9 billion, up 3 percent, due to employee severance costs and unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by lower other administrative costs.

The effective tax rate was 20.0 percent compared to 5.9 percent for the same period last year, primarily due to a prior period one-time, non-cash deferred tax benefit provided by U.S. tax regulations related to foreign currency gains and losses.

Net income was $0.5 billion, down 35 percent, and Diluted earnings per share was $0.35, a decrease of 35 percent.

February 28, 2026 Balance Sheet Review

Inventories for NIKE, Inc. were $7.5 billion, down 1 percent, primarily reflecting a decrease in units and product mix shifts, partially offset by increased product costs, primarily due to higher tariffs in North America.

Cash and equivalents and short-term investments were $8.1 billion, down approximately $2.3 billion, as cash generated by operations was more than offset by cash dividends, bond repayment, capital expenditures and share repurchases.

Shareholder Returns

NIKE has a strong track record of returns to shareholders, including 24 consecutive years of increasing dividend payouts. In the third quarter, the Company returned approximately $609 million to shareholders through dividends, up 3 percent from the prior year.

1 The 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.
