Last quarter financial highlights
Revenues for the NIKE Brand were $10.1 billion (+10%), driven by growth across NIKE Direct and wholesale, key categories including Sportswear and the Jordan Brand, and continued growth across footwear and apparel.
Revenues for Converse were $555 million (+8%), mainly driven by double-digit growth in Asia and through digital globally, which was partially offset by declines in the U.S.
Gross margin increased 150 basis points to 45.7% primarily due to higher average selling prices and margin expansion in NIKE Direct, partially offset by impacts from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and higher product costs.
Selling and administrative expense increased 9% to $3.3 billion. Demand creation expense was $1.0 billion, up 6% primarily driven by higher advertising expenses and sports marketing investments. Operating overhead expense increased 10% to $2.3 billion driven by continued investments in transformational capabilities, particularly in NIKE Direct and global operations.
The effective tax rate was 12.4%, compared to 14% for the same period last year, primarily due to discrete items which favorably impacted the quarter.
Net income increased 25% to $1.4 billion driven primarily by strong revenue growth and gross margin expansion while diluted earnings per share increased 28% to $0.86 reflecting a 2% decline in the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
Share Repurchases: During the first quarter, Nike repurchased 11.9 million shares for approximately $995 million as part of the four-year, $15 billion program approved by the Board of Directors in June 2018.
