10) THE INVESTOR SECTION
TOP TEN INVESTORS OF NIKE
MUTUAL FUND HOLDERS
WHAT INVESTORS SHOULD KNOW
Some of the thing’s investors should be aware of that impact of Nike's financial and its stock
include currency fluctuations, consumer tastes, geopolitical tensions, new technology, and
personnel among others.
Analysts agree, though, that Nike is poised for continued growth, which should have an impact
on the company's share price. That's because it is consistently focused on product and marketing
innovation. The company remains committed to upgrading its digital footprint through its Nike
Direct business, through which the company sells and launches new products online and also
makes improvements to its supply chain.
China is another key factor investors should keep an eye on. Because it is one of the company's
largest growth markets, any detrimental news out of the country could have a big impact on
share prices. For example, the stock took a hit after the company announced it had to shut down
half of its stores in the country in February 2020 because of the coronavirus outbreak. The
company reduced the hours at its other locations in China because of lower foot traffic.
ANNUAL REPORT
BEAVERTON, Ore., June 25, 2020 - NIKE, Inc. (NYSE: NKE) today reported financial results
for its fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and full year ended May 31, 2020.
Fourth quarter reported revenues were $6.3 billion, declining from prior year as the
majority of NIKE-owned and partner stores in North America, EMEA and APLA were closed
due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
NIKE digital sales increased 75 percent in the fourth quarter, or 79 percent on a currency-
neutral basis*, with strong double-digit increases across all geographies and was approximately
30 percent of total revenue.
For the fiscal year, Greater China revenues increased 8 percent, or 11 percent on a
currency-neutral basis, marking its sixth consecutive year of double-digit currency-neutral
growth despite the headwinds from COVID-19 in the second half of the year.
Our fourth quarter results were significantly impacted by physical store closures across North
America, EMEA and APLA, where 90 percent of NIKE-owned stores were closed for roughly
eight weeks in the quarter to protect the health and safety of teammates and consumers and help
slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our wholesale partners largely followed the same
pattern and as a result, product shipments to wholesale customers were down nearly 50 percent
resulting in lower total revenue and higher inventory. During the widespread physical store
closures, we accelerated our connection and engagement with our consumers leveraging the
strength of our digital ecosystem.
Fourth Quarter Income Statement Review
Revenues for NIKE, Inc. decreased 38 percent to $6.3 billion, down 36 percent on a
currency- neutral basis, primarily due to owned and partner physical store closures across
North America, EMEA and APL A due to COVID-19, partially offset by growth in
Greater China.
Gross margin decreased 820 basis points to 37.3 percent as higher full-price average
selling prices, despite increased wholesale discounts, were more than offset by higher
product costs including factory cancellation charges, increased inventory obsolescence
reserves and the adverse rate impact of supply chain fixed costs on lower wholesale
shipments primarily due to COVID-19.
Selling and administrative expense decreased 6 percent to $3.2 billion, which included an
incremental $178 million increase in bad debt expense. Demand creation expense was
$823 million, down 19 percent to prior year as retail and brand marketing spend was
shifted as sporting events were canceled or delayed due to COVID-19. Operating
overhead expense decreased 1 percent to $2.4 billion driven primarily by lower total
wages and travel and related expenses, partially offset by higher bad debt expense.
The effective tax rate was 1.7 percent, compared to 20.4 percent for the same period last
year. This is primarily due to the mix of earnings taxed in the U.S. and favorability
attributable to items such as the use of foreign tax credits.
Net loss was $790 million and diluted net loss per share was $0.51 driven by lower
revenue and gross margin as a result of the COVID-19 impact on operations, partially
offset by lower selling and administrative expenses.
Revenues for NIKE, Inc. fell 4 percent to $37.4 billion, down 2 percent on a currency-
neutral basis due to the impact of COVID-19 on business operations, primarily in the
fourth quarter. In the first half of fiscal 2020, prior to COVID-19, NIKE, Inc. revenue
was up 9 percent, or 11 percent on a currency-neutral basis, reflecting strong, broad-
based consumer demand, higher full-price sales realization and a double-digit increase in
digital sales.
In fiscal 2020, digital sales increased 47 percent, or 49 percent on a currency-neutral
basis, with all geographies growing strong double-digits.
Greater China revenues increased 8 percent, or 11 percent on a currency-neutral basis,
marking its sixth consecutive year of double-digit growth on a currency-neutral basis.
Gross margin decreased 130 basis points to 43.4 percent as higher full-price average
selling prices, despite higher discounts due to COVID-19, were more than offset by
higher product costs including tariffs in the U.S., as well as factory cancellation charges,
increased inventory obsolescence reserves and the adverse rate impact of supply chain
cost on a lower volume of wholesale shipments in the fourth quarter.
Net income was $2.5 billion and diluted earnings per share was $1.60, down 36 percent,
driven by lower revenue and gross margin impacted by COVID-19 in the fourth quarter
and higher selling and administrative expenses, partially offset by a lower tax rate and a
lower average share count. This also includes the one-time, non-cash charge associated
with the strategic distributor partnership transition in South America, which reduced
earnings per share by $0.25.
Inventories for NIKE, Inc. were $7.4 billion, up 31 percent compared to the prior year
period, primarily reflecting the impact of NIKE-owned store closures in North America,
EMEA and APLA as well as lower wholesale shipments in the fourth quarter due to
COVID-19.
Total liquidity at May 31 was $12.5 billion with robust cash and equivalents and short-
term investments of $8.8 billion, $4.1 billion higher than last year primarily due to
proceeds from a $6 billion corporate bond issuance in March, partially offset by share
repurchase activity in the first ten months of the year, cash dividends and investments in
infrastructure. In addition, NIKE secured a new $2 billion credit facility adding to the
existing credit facility of $2 billion to ensure appropriate liquidity and flexibility during
the COVID-19 pandemic.
