NKE 10-K Annual Reports

NIKE, Inc. reported revenues of $46.3 billion for fiscal year 2025, a decrease of 10% from $51.4 billion in fiscal year 2024.

The company returned $5.3 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.

NIKE, Inc. reported revenues of $51.4 billion for fiscal year 2024, a slight increase from the previous year.
