Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Operating Results
_________________
During the second quarter ended November 30, 1994, record revenues
increased 31%, gross margins improved by .9% and selling and
administrative expenses reduced as a percentage of sales, combining
to increase net income by 62%, the first quarter to quarter
comparison increase in six periods and the largest since May, 1990.
Net income for the period was $84.9 million or $1.16 per share,
compared to $52.3 million or $0.69 per share for the same period in the
prior year. Earnings per share increased 68% as compared to the 62%
increase in net income, primarily due to the Company's share repurchase
program. In addition to being a record second quarter in earnings, the
Company recognized several other milestones. This was the first second
quarter with revenue in excess of $1 billion, the first time the Company's
trailing twelve months'revenues have exceeded $4 billion, and the largest
advance order release ever announced.
Revenues increased $248 million over the $806 million reported
in the same period of the prior year. United States footwear was a
strong contributor with growth of $115 million, or 34%, resulting from
an increase of 39% in pairs shipped and a 4% decrease in average selling
price. Revenues were strong across all categories, including an increase
in basketball which was the first comparative increase in 18 months.
International revenues increased $106 million, or 32%, composed of 28% and
41% increases in international footwear and apparel revenues, respectively.
The international growth included a 22% increase from new
NIKE-owned subsidiaries in Japan and Korea and a positive 5% affect from
foreign exchange translation, partially offset by decreases in France and
Germany which together combined for a 7% decrease in international's total
revenues. U.S. apparel increased $23 million or 30%, and anticipates an
increase for the full fiscal year. Other brands, which includes Cole
Haan (R), Tetra Plastics, and Sports Specialties, increased 8%. The
breakdown of revenues follows:

========== ========== === ========== ========== ====
</TABLE>
Consolidated gross margins improved over the prior year, increasing
from 38.4% in the prior year second quarter to 39.3% in the current year.
The increase was a result of the high volume of revenues, along with
strong demand for NIKE products combined with sound inventory management
which resulted in a smaller percentage of lower margin closeout sales. The
Company continues to place strong emphasis on inventory management,
minimizing foreign exchange risk, and production sourcing in order to
maximize gross profit.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of
revenues from 27.7% during the prior year second quarter to 25.5% in the
current year. On an absolute dollar basis, spending increased $45 million,
or 20%, with all new NIKE-owned subsidiaries accounting for $29 million of
the increase. International operations in total added $36 million, a
result of the new subsidiaries and planned increases in international
infrastructure development. Also, the foreign currency translation impact
increased spending by approximately $4 million. U.S. operations were up
$9 million, primarily in planned marketing expenses. The Company intends
to continue to invest in growth opportunities and to increase marketing
expenses in order to ensure the successful sell-through of the high level
of orders discussed below. As a result, the Company expects selling and
administrative costs as a percentage of revenues for the current year to
approximate the prior year results.
Interest expenses for the quarter increased slightly over the prior
year due to increased operational short-term borrowings related to the
new NIKE subsidiaries mentioned previously, offset by lower U.S. borrowings.
Other income decreased $2.8 million, primarily as a result of increased
other expenses - including profit sharing, foreign currency
transactions, asset disposals and goodwill - offset partially by
increased interest income.
The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter was 39.0% compared
to 37.43% in the prior year. Last year's second quarter included a reduction
for the tax impact of permanently reinvesting foreign earnings overseas,
as more fully discussed in that respective 10-Q. The Company
anticipates the tax rate for fiscal 1995 will approximate the 39.1% rate
for the full fiscal year 1994.
Worldwide orders for athletic footwear and apparel scheduled for
delivery from December 1994 through April 1995 were approximately $1.95
billion, 34% higher than such orders booked in the comparable period of
the prior year. This represents a record amount of orders for any period,
and will require a significant portion of our production capacity to be
devoted to filling these orders, potentially impacting availability of
product for "at once" shipments. These orders are not necessarily indicative
of total revenues for subsequent periods because the mix of advance orders
and "at once" shipments may vary significantly from quarter to quarter and
year to year. Additionally, as international operations continue to shift
to a greater emphasis on futures orders, this mix again may vary. Finally,
exchange rates can cause differences in the comparisons.
After a six-month "Special 301" investigation under the 1974 Trade
Act, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative ("USTR") announced on
December 31, 1994 that the United States will take retaliatory trade
action against the People's Republic of China if China does not agree to
address U.S. intellectual property rights concerns. On or before
February 4, 1994 the USTR will make a final determination as to whether
China's intellectual property right's enforcement policies and practices
are unreasonable and constitute a burden on, or restrict, U.S. commerce.
The USTR has published a preliminary list of products from China that it
would target if sanctions were imposed, although the USTR may later
reduce that list of targeted products. Seven categories of footwear are
among the various products on the list. Targeted products would be
assessed tariffs of 100 percent in addition to the current tariffs. A
portion of the footwear that the Company imports from China into the
U.S. falls into four of the seven potentially targeted categories of
footwear, and sanctions would effectively eliminate imports from China
in those categories. However, at the time of filing this report the
Company anticipates that the sanctions, if imposed, would not have a
material adverse effect on the Company due to the wide range of product
sourcing available to the Company, and the lack of significance of the
targeted categories to the Company's overall production.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
_______________________________
The Company's financial position remained strong, with working capital
rising $86 million since May 31, 1994. The working capital ratio was 3.2:1
at November 30, 1994 and at May 31, 1994.
Cash and equivalents increased $27 million primarily as a result of
cash flow from operations, offset partially by cash used by investing
activities, including the purchase of a new NIKE-owned subsidiary, and
cash used by financing activities, primarily the purchase of 1,000,000
shares of NIKE stock under the stock repurchase program announced in
July 1993.
The increase in accounts receivable of $73 million was due to
sales growth in both October and November over last May's comparable two
month period.
Overall inventories decreased $11 million since May 31. Gross U.S.
footwear inventory is down $33 million and gross U.S. apparel inventory
is down $4 million, however, international inventories have increased
$25 million, primarily due to new NIKE-owned
subsidiaries.
During the quarter, the Company announced a 25% increase in the
quarterly cash dividend to $0.25 per share from the previous $0.20 per
share.
Subsequent to November 30, 1994, the Company has commenced
an offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Canstar Sports,
Inc., the world's largest hockey equipment manufacturer for Canadian
$27.50 per share in cash. The total value of the proposed transaction
is approximately U.S.$395 million. The Company also announced that
it entered into an agreement with the principal shareholders, who
together represent 46% of Canstar's shares, to acquire those shares for
the same price. The acquisition is subject to regulatory approval and
other customary conditions.
The debt to equity ratio at November 30, 1994 was .4:1 compared to
.4:1 at May 31, 1994 and .3:1 at November 30, 1993. Management believes that
funds generated by operations, together with currently available resources,
will adequately finance anticipated fiscal 1995 expenditures. At
November 30, 1994, the Company had $300 million available in committed
unused lines of credit.
