DETAILED COMMENTARY

NKE (-1%) Running In Place

After a Q4 print where the sequential slowdown in DTC sales was a common point of pushback and China/EMEA were weak as

expected, mgmt on the call spoke to the negative linearity/exit rate deterioration throughout the qtr, guided Q1 below the street,

and reduced their previously issued CY26 guidance.
