Summary
NIKE, Inc. (NKE) filed an 8-K on September 13, 2001, to announce the rescheduling of its first quarter fiscal 2002 earnings release and its annual meeting of shareholders. This decision was made in light of the tragic events of that week and the subsequent closure of stock markets. The earnings release, originally set for September 17, 2001, was moved to September 20, 2001, after market close. The annual shareholder meeting, initially planned for September 17, 2001, in Portland, Maine, was rescheduled to September 21, 2001, in Portland, Oregon. Management will technically adjourn the meeting in Maine on the original date before reconvening at the new location. Both the earnings call and the shareholder meeting will be webcast live via www.nikebiz.com/invest, with replays available for a limited time. This filing provides logistical information for investors rather than new financial performance data, directly addressing operational adjustments made in response to extraordinary market conditions.
