Nike says its tariff bill is $1 billion
Nike is forecasting it will have to pay $1 billion in additional costs because of President Donald Trump's tariffs, the activewear giant announced Thursday. The tariffs 'represent a new and meaningful cost headwind,' said Matthew Friend, Nike's chief financial officer on a call with analysts, adding that the company will 'fully mitigate' the cost by reducing its supply chain reliance on China – and by passing the costs onto customers with price increases. Although China 'remains important to our global source base,' he said, the company is reducing the imports of footwear to the United States from about 16% to the 'high-single-digit range by the end of fiscal 2026,' with the supply coming from other countries. The impact of tariffs and decline in consumer spending was especially pronounced on its net income for the fourth quarter, which fell 86% to $211 million — a sharp slump from the $1.5 billion it reported a year earlier. Despite the drop, CEO Elliott Hill said he was bullish on his turnaround plans and that it's 'time to turn the page.' Nike plans to 'aggressively rightsize three very important franchises,' including its Air Force 1, Dunk and the Air Jordan labels, he said. However, its delayed launch of NikeSkims with Kim Kardashian wasn't mentioned on the call. Investors cheered the optimism that the worst may be behind Nike. Shares of Nike (NKE) jumped nearly 11% in premarket trading Friday. Hill is shifting Nike back to sports, a priority that was de-emphasized under its former CEO. 'Nike, Jordan, and Converse teams will now come to work every day with a mission to create the most innovative and coveted product, footwear, apparel, and accessories for thespecific athletes they serve,' Hill said. 'These sport-obsessed teams will create greater dimension and distinction for our three brands, will make us more competitive, and will accelerate our growth.' In a note, Neil Saunders, managing director of GlobalData, said he has 'some confidence' that Nike is 'over the worst of things as far as profitability is concerned.' Nike 'remains the most significant brand in sportswear by a large margin,' Saunders wrote. 'This means new growth does not come easily and that market share has to be constantly defended from other smaller players. It also underlines that Nike is a very relevant brand and, despite its problems, has a firm base from which to build.'

Nike Stock Surges as Q4 Results Show Turnaround Plan Progressing
Nike shares surged in premarket trading Friday after the shoe and athletic apparel maker beat estimates for the fourth quarter. Sales and profit fell less than expected year-over-year as new CEO Elliott Hill's turnaround plan progresses. Nike's CFO said the company expects tariffs to lead to a hit of up to $1 billion in extra costs over its next fiscal year if they stay at current (NKE) shares jumped in premarket trading Friday, a day after the athletic apparel giant topped fiscal fourth-quarter estimates. After the bell Thursday, Nike—which is the midst of new CEO Elliott Hill's turnaround plan to return to sales growth—posted smaller-than-expected drops in revenue and profit. CFO Matt Friend said in Thursday's earnings call that the company expects to take a hit of up to $1 billion this year due to the tariffs implemented by the Trump administration, as Nike looks to shift as much of its sourcing as possible away from China. Following the report, JPMorgan analysts lifted their price target for Nike stock to $64 from $56, while maintaining their "neutral" rating. That makes the JPMorgan analysts slightly more bearish than average, with analysts tracked by Visible Alpha holding nine "buy," seven "hold," and one "sell" rating, with an average price target of nearly $77. Nike shares were up 10% two hours before the opening bell, which would represent a larger move than options traders were expecting. The stock entered Friday down about 17% since the start of the year.

Why your next pair of running shoes may be more expensive
Nike is raising prices for US customers to offset an expected $1 billion cost increase from tariffs. A " surgical price increase" is how Nike's CFO Matthew Friend described it. "These tariffs represent a new and meaningful cost headwind," he said as the company reported its latest earnings on Thursday. The company's quarterly revenue fell 12% to $11.1 billion — the lowest it's been for around three years — yet still beat analysts' modest expectations. Friend outlined a four-part strategy, including the price increases, to mitigate the tariff costs, beginning with diversifying its sourcing and allocating production across countries. Nike said 16% of the footwear it imports to the US comes from China. It expects that share to drop to the high single digits by the end of fiscal year 2026. It's not just the tariffs weighing on Nike. Nike is still dealing with the fallout of an unsuccessful shift to direct-to-consumer sales — a move that gave competitors an opportunity to gain shelf space at major retailers. CEO Elliott Hill returned from retirement last year with a plan for a big turnaround: reduce reliance on its lifestyle business and put sports at the forefront of its strategy. (Hill is a true insider, having worked his way up from an apparel sales representative intern in 1988.) There have been positive signs. Nike emerged as a big winner in the Super Bowl advertising game thanks to its star-studded commercial. The refocus on sports also bolsters the company against a dependency on trends, which are often transient. That said, Nike is still embracing the Snoafer trend — an amalgamation that combines sneaker and loafer. On the earnings call, Hill re-emphasized the mission objective: "When we focus on sport, we win." At the time of writing, Nike's stock price is up more than 10% in early trading — and HSBC just upgraded the company's stock rating from "hold" to "buy".
