• Revenues up 4 percent to $7.7 billion; 12 percent growth excluding currency changes
• Diluted earnings per share up 22 percent to $0.90
• Worldwide futures orders up 15 percent; 20 percent growth excluding currency changes
• Inventories as of November 30, 2015 up 11 percent
BEAVERTON, Ore., December 22, 2015 – #nike, Inc. (NYSE:NKE) today reported financial results
for its fiscal 2016 second quarter ended November 30, 2015. Strong consumer demand drove
revenue growth across the #nike Brand portfolio. Diluted earnings per share grew faster than revenue,
up 22 percent, primarily due to gross margin expansion, a lower effective tax rate and a lower average
share count, which more than offset higher SG&A investments in #nike, Inc. brands and business
capabilities.
“Our strong Q2 growth and profitability show that #nike continues to drive real momentum through the
Category Offense – by going deep with consumers by sport and serving them completely,” said Mark
Parker, President and CEO, #nike, Inc. “And our powerful global portfolio of businesses, combined
with strong financial discipline, continue to drive significant shareholder value. We see tremendous
opportunity ahead as we enter an Olympic and European Championships year with a full pipeline of
inspiring innovation for athletes everywhere.”*
Second Quarter Income Statement Review
• Revenues for #nike, Inc. increased 4 percent to $7.7 billion, up 12 percent on a currency neutral
basis.
o Revenues for the #nike Brand were $7.3 billion, up 13 percent on a currency neutral basis,
driven by double-digit growth in every geography and most key categories.
o Revenues for Converse were $398 million, down 5 percent on a currency neutral basis, as
strong growth in North America was more than offset by a decline in Europe.
• Gross margin increased 50 basis points to 45.6 percent, primarily due to higher average selling
prices, partially offset by higher product input costs and unfavorable changes in foreign exchange
rates.
• Selling and administrative expense increased 5 percent to $2.6 billion. Demand creation
expense was $769 million, flat versus the prior year. Operating overhead expense increased 7
percent to $1.8 billion, reflecting continued growth in the Direct To Consumer (DTC) business, as
well as investments in operational infrastructure and consumer-focused digital capabilities.
• Other income, net was $34 million comprised primarily of net foreign currency exchange gains,
and a favorable settlement of a legal judgment related to a bankruptcy case in Western Europe.
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 currency
exchange rates on the translation of foreign currency-denominated profits, decreased pretax
income by approximately $109 million. • The effective tax rate was 19.1 percent, compared to 25.4 percent for the same period last year,
primarily due to adjustments in the prior year to tax expense on intercompany transactions and an
increase in earnings from operations outside the U.S. in the current period, which are generally
subject to a lower tax rate. These factors were partially offset by the resolution of tax audits across
multiple jurisdictions in the prior year period.
• Net income increased 20 percent to $785 million, while diluted earnings per share increased 22
percent to $0.90, reflecting revenue growth, gross margin expansion, a lower tax rate and a one
percent decline in the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
November 30, 2015 Balance Sheet Review
• Inventories for #nike, Inc. were $4.6 billion, up 11 percent from November 30, 2014, driven
primarily by an 8 percent increase in #nike Brand wholesale unit inventories. Increases in average
product cost per unit, as well as higher inventories associated with growth in DTC, were largely
offset by changes in the value of inventories due to foreign currency exchange rates.
• Cash and short-term investments were $6.1 billion, $1.4 billion higher than last year mainly as a
result of proceeds from the issuance of debt in the second quarter, collateral received from
counterparties to foreign currency hedging instruments and growth in net income, which more than
offset share repurchases, investments in working capital and higher dividends.
Share Repurchases
During the second quarter, #nike, Inc. repurchased a total of 5.6 million shares for approximately $652
million as part of the four-year, $8 billion program approved by the Board of Directors in September
2012. As of the end of the second quarter, a total of 92 million shares had been repurchased under
this program for $7.2 billion, an average cost of approximately $78.19 per share.
Futures Orders
As of the end of the quarter, worldwide futures orders for #nike Brand athletic footwear and apparel
scheduled for delivery from December 2015 through April 2016 were 15 percent higher than orders
reported for the same period last year. Excluding currency changes, futures orders would have
increased 20 percent.*

B Common Stock. The Company expects its common stock to begin trading at the split-adjusted price
