NIKE (NKE) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Nike's running business has shown impressive progress, achieving over 20% growth in the recent quarter, bolstered by an innovative product structure that enables the introduction of new running footwear styles each season. Additionally, the company's spring order books have increased year-over-year, indicating positive growth in wholesale revenue. This combination of strong performance in key categories and positive inventory signals reflects the effectiveness of Nike's strategic initiatives and contributes to an optimistic outlook for the company's financial health.
Bears say
Nike is anticipating a low-single-digit (LSD) decline in year-over-year sales, indicating potential challenges in revenue growth. The company expects second-quarter gross margin (GM) to decrease by 300-375 basis points, primarily due to ongoing marketplace efforts and a substantial tariff impact of approximately 175 basis points, while selling, general and administrative expenses (SGA) are projected to rise high-single digits year-over-year as the company focuses on demand creation. Additionally, the digital sales channel is forecasted to experience a double-digit decline in FY26 as Nike shifts towards establishing a full-price marketplace and aims for a cleaner inventory position by the second half of 2026.
