BEAVERTON, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
NIKE, Inc. (NYSE:NKE) today reported fiscal 2017 financial results for
its first quarter ended August 31, 2016. Strong global demand drove
double-digit currency-neutral revenue growth internationally in the
first quarter and six percent revenue growth in North America.
Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.73, up 9 percent
driven by strong revenue growth, operating overhead leverage, a lower
effective tax rate and a lower average share count partially offset by a
gross margin decline and higher demand creation expense in an Olympic
quarter.
“Fueled by an incredible summer of sport, NIKE delivered strong global
growth—and led the industry through disruptive innovation,” said Mark
Parker, Chairman, President and CEO, NIKE, Inc. “Q1 also showed how
we’re amplifying every category through sports style innovation,
transforming retail by connecting the digital and physical experience
and ushering in a new Era of Personalized Performance – through product,
consumer connections and our supply chain. NIKE’s strategic investments
in these growth opportunities continue to deliver long-term value to our
shareholders.”**
First Quarter Income Statement Review
-
Revenues for NIKE, Inc. rose 8 percent to $9.1
billion, up 10 percent on a currency-neutral basis.
-
Revenues for the NIKE Brand were $8.5 billion, up 10 percent on a
currency-neutral basis driven by double-digit growth in Greater
China, Western Europe, Emerging Markets, Central & Eastern Europe
and Japan, including strong growth in Sportswear, Running and the
Jordan Brand.
-
Revenues for Converse were $574 million, up 4 percent on a
currency-neutral basis, mainly driven by growth in North America
which was slightly offset by declines in Europe and Asia Pacific.
-
Gross margin declined 200 basis points to 45.5 percent
as higher average selling prices were more than offset by several
temporary or discrete items including foreign exchange, a shift of
expenses from Operating Overhead to Cost of Goods Sold, a higher
off-price mix and the impact of exiting the Golf equipment business.
-
Selling and administrative expense increased 12 percent
to $2.9 billion. Demand creation expense was $1.0 billion, up 25
percent, reflecting investments in key sports events. Operating
overhead expense increased 6 percent to $1.9 billion, reflecting
continued growth in the Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) business, and
targeted investments in operational infrastructure and
consumer-focused digital capabilities.
-
Other income, net was $62 million, primarily comprised
of net foreign currency exchange gains. For the quarter, the Company
estimates the year-over-year change in foreign currency-related gains
and losses included in other income, net, combined with the impact of
changes in exchange rates on the translation of foreign
currency-denominated profits, increased pretax income by approximately
$3 million.
-
The effective tax rate was 2.5 percent, compared to 18.4
percent for the same period last year, primarily due to a one-time
benefit related to the resolution with the U.S. Internal Revenue
Service of a foreign tax credit matter.
-
Net income increased 6 percent to $1.2 billion as
revenue growth and a lower effective tax rate more than offset lower
gross margin and higher demand creation expense, while diluted
earnings per share increased 9 percent from the prior year to
$0.73 reflecting nearly a 3 percent decline in the weighted average
diluted common shares outstanding.
August 31, 2016 Balance Sheet Review
-
Inventories for NIKE, Inc. were $4.9 billion, up 11
percent from August 31, 2015, driven by a 3 percent increase in NIKE
Brand wholesale unit inventories, increases in average product cost
per unit, and growth in the DTC business.
-
Cash and short-term investments were $4.8 billion, $621
million lower than last year as growth in net income and proceeds from
the issuance of debt in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 were more
than offset by share repurchases, investments in working capital and
infrastructure, higher dividends, and a reduction in collateral
received from counterparties to foreign currency hedging instruments.
Share Repurchases
During the first quarter, NIKE, Inc. repurchased a total of 19.0 million
shares for approximately $1.1 billion as part of the four-year, $12
billion program approved by the Board of Directors in November 2015. As
of August 31, 2016, a total of 39.0 million shares had been repurchased
under this program for approximately $2.2 billion.
Futures Orders
As of August 31, 2016, worldwide futures orders for NIKE Brand athletic
footwear and apparel scheduled for delivery from September 2016 through
January 2017 totaled $12.3 billion, 5 percent higher than orders
reported for the same period last year, and 7 percent higher on a
currency-neutral basis.**

forward-looking statements in this release concern changes in futures

orders, exchange rate fluctuations, order cancellations, discounts and
returns, which may vary significantly from quarter to quarter, and
because a portion of the business does not report futures orders.

1 Fiscal 2017 results have been restated using fiscal
2016 exchange rates for the comparative period to enhance the
visibility of the underlying business trends excluding the impact
of translation arising from foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations, which is considered a non-GAAP financial measure.

2 Global Brand Divisions revenues are primarily
attributable to NIKE Brand licensing businesses 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 our central foreign exchange risk

1 The Company evaluates performance of individual
operating segments based on earnings before interest and taxes
(commonly referred to as “EBIT”), which represents net income
before interest expense (income), net and income tax expense and
is considered a non-GAAP financial measure.
|
|
2 Global Brand Divisions primarily represent demand
creation, operating overhead and product creation and design
expenses that are centrally managed for the NIKE Brand. Revenues
for Global Brand Divisions are primarily attributable to NIKE
Brand licensing businesses that are not part of a geographic
operating segment.
|
|
3 Corporate consists largely of unallocated general and
administrative expenses, including expenses associated with
centrally managed departments; depreciation and amortization
related to the Company’s corporate headquarters; unallocated

1 Futures orders for NIKE Brand footwear and apparel
scheduled for delivery from September 2016 through January 2017.
NIKE Brand reported futures include (1) orders from external
wholesale customers and (2) internal orders from our DTC in-line
stores and e-commerce operations which are reflected at prices that
are comparable to prices charged to external wholesale customers.
The U.S. Dollar futures orders amount is calculated based upon our
internal forecast of the currency exchange rates under which our
revenues will be translated during this period.
|
|
The reported futures orders growth is not necessarily indicative of
our expectation of revenue growth during this period. This is due to
year-over-year changes in shipment timing, changes in the mix of
orders between futures and at-once orders, and because the
fulfillment of certain orders may fall outside of the schedule noted
above. In addition, exchange rate fluctuations as well as differing
levels of order cancellations, discounts and returns can cause
differences in the comparisons between futures orders and actual
revenues. Moreover, a portion of our revenue is not derived from
futures orders, including sales of at-once and closeout NIKE Brand
footwear and apparel, all sales of NIKE Brand equipment, the
difference between retail sales and internal orders from our DTC
in-line stores and e-commerce operations, and sales from Converse,
NIKE Golf and Hurley.
|
|
2 Reported futures have been restated using prior year
exchange rates for the comparative period to enhance the
visibility of the underlying business trends, excluding the impact
of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
