NIKE, Inc. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies: ___________________________________________ Basis of presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim period(s). The interim financial information and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's latest annual report to shareholders. The results of operations for the three (3) months ended August 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to fiscal year 2001 presentation. These changes had no impact on previously reported results of operations or shareholders' equity. NOTE 2 - Comprehensive Income: __________________ Comprehensive income, net of taxes, is as follows: Three Months Ended August 31, __________________ 2000 1999 ____ ____ (in millions) Net Income $210.2 $200.2 Change in Cumulative Translation Adjustment (12.7) (11.5) Change in Unrealized Loss in Securities (3.8) - _______ _______ Total Comprehensive Income $193.7 $188.7 ======= ======= NOTE 3 - Net income per common share: ___________________________ Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated in accordance with SFAS 128, "Earnings per Share." This standard requires that basic earnings per share be calculated using the average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by taking into consideration the dilutive effect of issued and outstanding stock options. Options to purchase 9.6 million and 1.6 million shares of common stock were outstanding at August 31, 2000 and August 31, 1999, respectively but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of common shares and, therefore, the effect would be antidilutive. The following represents a reconciliation from basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share: Three Months Ended August 31, __________________ 2000 1999 ____ ____ (in millions, except per share data) Determination of shares: Average common shares outstanding 269.9 281.1 Assumed conversion of dilutive stock options and awards 3.9 4.4 ______ ______ Diluted average common shares outstanding 273.8 285.5 ====== ====== Basic earnings per common share $ 0.78 $ 0.71 ====== ====== Diluted earnings per common share $ 0.77 $ 0.70 ====== ====== NOTE 4 - Inventories: ___________ Inventories by major classification are as follows: Aug. 31, May 31, 2000 2000 ________ ________ (in millions) Finished goods $1,438.6 $1,416.6 Work-in-progress 19.3 17.3 Raw materials 11.3 12.1 ________ ________ $1,469.2 $1,446.0 ======== ======== NOTE 5 - Operating Segments: The Company's major operating segments are defined by geographic regions for subsidiaries participating in NIKE Brand sales activity. Other Brands as shown below represent activity for Cole-Haan Holdings, Inc., Bauer NIKE Hockey, Inc., and NIKE IHM, Inc. and are considered immaterial for individual disclosure. In prior years, the Company's operations in Africa were included in the Americas region, but effective June 1, 2000, these operations are included in the Europe region. Africa information and certain other prior year segment information has been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. Where applicable, "Corporate" represents items necessary to reconcile to the consolidated financial statements which generally include corporate activity and corporate eliminations. The segments are evidence of the structure of the enterprise's internal organization. Each NIKE Brand geographic segment operates predominantly in one industry: the design, production, marketing and selling of sports and fitness footwear, apparel, and equipment. Net revenues as shown below represent sales to external customers for each segment. Intercompany revenues have been eliminated and are immaterial for separate disclosure. The Company evaluates performance of individual operating segments based on Contribution Profit before Corporate Allocations, Interest Expense and Income Taxes. On a consolidated basis, this amount represents Income Before Taxes less Interest Expense as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Other reconciling items for Contribution Profit represent corporate costs that are not allocated to the operating segments for management reporting and intercompany eliminations for specific income statement items. Accounts receivable, inventory, and fixed assets for operating segments are regularly reviewed and therefore provided:

NOTE 6 - Commitments and contingencies: _____________________________ At August 31, 2000, the Company had letters of credit outstanding totaling $734.8 million. These letters of credit were issued for the purchase of inventory. There have been no other significant subsequent developments relating to the commitments and contingencies reported on the Company's most recent Form 10-K. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION Operating Results _________________ Net income for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 was $210.2 million, a 5% increase over the $200.2 million net income reported in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. A 5% increase in revenues and a 190 basis point improvement in gross margin percentage were the primary drivers of the increase, offset in part by increased selling and administrative expenses. Diluted earnings per share rose from $.70 to $.77, a 10% increase over the prior year. Share repurchases over the past year resulted in fewer shares outstanding in fiscal year 2001, and hence drove earnings per share growth faster than net income. Each geographic region achieved revenue growth in the quarter. The U.S. region, which represents 54% of NIKE brand revenues, grew 2%. U.S. footwear and apparel revenues declined 1% and 2%, respectively, while equipment revenues grew 55%. Our international regions accounted for 46% of NIKE brand revenues in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, up from 44% in the first quarter of the previous fiscal year. Revenues in our European region, which includes operations in Africa, grew 6%; had the value of the U.S. dollar remained constant with the prior year, revenues would have increased 19%. In the Asia Pacific region, revenues grew 26%; had the value of the U.S. dollar remained constant with the prior year, revenues would have increased 20%. In the Americas region, revenues grew 15%; had the value of the U.S. dollar remained constant with the prior year, revenues would have increased 16%. In the international regions, the growth reflected higher revenues in footwear, apparel and equipment. The breakdown of revenues follows: Three Months Ended August 31, ___________________ % 2000 1999 change ______ ______ _______ (in millions) U.S.A.

Each region, and the footwear and apparel businesses, reported gross margin percentage improvements over the prior year, resulting in a 190 basis point improvement for the Company as a whole. Several factors contributed to the improved gross margin percentage from the previous year, including fewer apparel close-outs, improved retail margins, and improved apparel net pricing margins, driven primarily by a better product mix in Europe. Selling and administrative expenses increased $74.6 million versus the first quarter of last year. The largest factor in this increase was marketing spending related to two major sporting events this fiscal year: the 2000 European Soccer Championship and the 2000 Summer Olympics. Other significant factors included our continued investments in new retail outlets, the development of e-commerce, our supply chain initiatives and geographic expansion. Interest expense for the quarter increased from $10.0 million last year to $15.4 million this year, due to higher outstanding debt balances during the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 versus the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. The debt balances increased during fiscal year 2000 primarily to fund capital expenditures, share repurchases and the financing of inventory purchases previously financed by our trading partner, Nissho Iwai American Corporation (NIAC), with whom we restructured our trading agreement in fiscal year 2000. Other income/expense was a net expense for the quarter of $20.0 million, up from a $7.0 million expense in the prior year. Foreign exchange losses were the largest driver of this increased expense. Our effective tax rate decreased from 38.0% in the first quarter of the prior year to 36.5% in the first quarter of this year. The drop was primarily due to increased utilization of tax loss carryforwards of certain foreign operations that recently turned profitable and lower taxes on a portion of foreign earnings that have been permanently reinvested offshore. Futures Orders Worldwide futures and advance orders for NIKE brand athletic footwear and apparel scheduled for delivery between September 2000 and January 2001 totaled $3.1 billion, essentially flat as compared to the same period last year. These orders and the relative change in these orders between years are not necessarily indicative of the change in revenues that we will experience for subsequent periods. This is due to potential shifts in the mix of advance orders in relation to at-once orders and varying cancellation rates. Exchange rate fluctuations will also cause differences in the comparisons. Euro Conversion On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union established permanent, fixed conversion rates between their existing currencies and the European Union's new common currency, the euro. During the transition period ending December 31, 2001, public and private parties may pay for goods and services using either the euro or the participating country's legacy currency. Beginning January 1, 2002, euro denominated bills and coins will be issued, with the legacy currencies being completely withdrawn from circulation on June 30, 2002. We have had a dedicated project team working on euro transition strategy since January 1998. We are in the process of making modifications to information echnology systems supporting marketing, order management, purchasing, invoicing, payroll, and cash management functions. Many of our systems are already euro compliant. Our plan is to have most systems converted to euro compliance by the end of calendar year 2000, well ahead of the end of the transitional period. We believe the introduction of the euro may create a move towards a greater level of wholesale price harmonization, although differing country costs and value added tax rates will continue to result in price differences at the retail level. Over the past year, we have been actively working to assess and, where necessary, adjust our pricing practices to operate effectively in this new environment. The introduction of the euro may also reduce currency exchange and hedging costs. The costs of adapting our systems and practices to the implementation of the euro are generally related to modification of existing systems, and are estimated to be approximately $8 million. These costs are being expensed as incurred. NIKE believes that the conversion to the euro will not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash provided by operations in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 was $175.9 million, a decrease of $147.5 million versus the first quarter of last year. While net income increased $10.0 million over the prior year, cash provided by operations was reduced by a $153.7 million increase in the use of cash for working capital. This change in working capital was due to a smaller increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the first quarter of this year due to the timing of certain payments and the restructuring of our agreement with NIAC in fiscal year 2000. Capital expenditures for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 were $69.6 million. A significant portion of this total expenditure was for computer equipment and software, driven by our supply chain initiative. We also continued to invest funds in the expansion of our world headquarters and the development of new warehouse facilities in Japan. Net cash provided by financing activities was $27.6 million. This reflected increased short-term borrowings incurred primarily to fund higher working capital balances than at May 31, 2000. We believe that the significant cash flow generated by operations, together with access to external sources of funds, will be adequate to meet our anticipated capital needs. Significant short and long-term lines of credit are maintained with banks, which, along with cash on hand, provide adequate operating liquidity. Liquidity is also provided by our commercial paper program, under which there was $647.2 million outstanding at August 31, 2000. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, we purchased a total of 0.1 million shares of NIKE's Class B common stock for $5.9 million. These purchases were made under a four-year, $1 billion share repurchase program authorized by our Board of Directors at the beginning the current fiscal year. Funding for repurchases has, and is expected to continue to come primarily from operating cash flow. The timing and the amount of shares purchased will be dictated by working capital needs and stock market conditions. Dividends per share of common stock for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 remained at $.12 per share, the same level as the previous year. Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There were no material changes to the disclosure made in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2000 regarding this matter. Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Analyst Reports Certain written and oral statements made or incorporated by reference from time to time by NIKE or its representatives in this report, other reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases, conferences, or otherwise, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("the Act"). Forward- looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate, or imply future results, performance, or achievements, and may contain the words "believe, "anticipate," "expect," "estimate," "project," "will be," "will continue," "will result," or words or phrases of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties are detailed from time to time in reports filed by NIKE with the S.E.C., including Forms 8-K, 10-Q, and 10-K, and include, among others, the following: international, national and local general economic and market conditions; the size and growth of the overall athletic footwear, apparel, and equipment markets; intense competition among designers, marketers, distributors and sellers of athletic footwear, apparel, and equipment for consumers and endorsers; demographic changes; changes in consumer preferences; popularity of particular designs, categories of products, and sports; seasonal and geographic demand for NIKE products; the size, timing and mix of purchases of NIKE's products; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results, including, without limitation, the fact that advance "futures" orders may not be indicative of future revenues due to the changing mix of futures and at-once orders; the ability of NIKE to sustain, manage or forecast its growth and inventories; new product development and introduction; the ability to secure and protect trademarks, patents, and other intellectual property; performance and reliability of products; customer service; adverse publicity; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; dependence on distributors; business disruptions; increased costs of freight and transportation to meet delivery deadlines; changes in business strategy or development plans; general risks associated with doing business outside the United States, including, without limitation, import duties, tariffs, quotas and political and economic instability; changes in government regulations; liability and other claims asserted against NIKE; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; and other factors referenced or incorporated by reference in this report and other reports. The risks included here are not exhaustive. Other sections of this report may include additional factors which could adversely impact NIKE's business and financial performance. Moreover, NIKE operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on NIKE's business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward- looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Investors should also be aware that while NIKE does, from time to time, communicate with securities analysts, it is against NIKE's policy to disclose to them any material non-public information or other confidential commercial information. Accordingly, shareholders should not assume that NIKE agrees with any statement or report issued by any analyst irrespective of the content of the statement or report. Furthermore, NIKE has a policy against issuing or confirming financial forecasts or projections issued by others. Thus, to the extent that reports issued by securities analysts contain any projections, forecasts or opinions, such reports are not the responsibility of NIKE. Part II - Other Information . Item 1.
