Nike Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nke#NYSE">NKE</a>) reported its fiscal first quarter results this week, topping earnings estimates but falling short on revenue, along with withdrawing guidance and postponing its investor day that was scheduled for November. The sneaker giant is in for a CEO change on October 14th.&nbsp;
<h3>Fiscal First Quarter Higlights</h3>
For the quarter that ended on August 31st, Nike reported revenue dropped about 10% YoY to $11.59 billion, which was short of LSEG&rsquo;s estimate of $11.65 billion. More precisely, direct to consumer sales shrinked 13% to $4.7 billion, and digital sales recorded an even sharper drop of 15%.&nbsp;Wholesale revenue also recorded a drop of 8% as it amounted to $6.4 billion.
In North America alone, Nike footwear sales dropped 14%, followed by a 10% drop in apparel sales. Converse also continues to drag Nike&rsquo;s result down with sales decreasing 15% to $501 million, but still topping StreetAccount&rsquo;s estimate of $493 million.
On the other hand, Nike earned a net income of $1.05 billion, or 70 cents per share, topping LSEG&rsquo;s estimate of&nbsp;52 cents. Gross margin grew by 1.2 percentage points&nbsp;to 45.4%,&nbsp;topping StreetAccount&rsquo;s estimate of 44.4%, but profits still dropped by almost 28%.
A change in direction or more precisely, going back to what made Nike into a powerhouse.
The revenue shortfall is owed to Nike fixing its product assortment and reworking its approach to innovation, which in a way built its brand from the ground up. The sneaker giant has admitted its mistake of focusing on direct sales channels like its website and stores and leaving its wholesalers like Foot Locker Inc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fl#NYSE">FL</a>). Foot Locker has been working hard to improve the customer experience and refresh its stores and its latest quarterly results showed these efforts are bearing fruit. But despite reporting first comparable sales growth in six months, Foot Locker still recorded a loss of $12 million. Foot Locker continues its turnaround efforts as it tries to stay relevant in an environment where brands like Nike are not as reliant on multi-brand retailers as they were in the past, but fortunately for Foot Locker, even Nike realized it cannot do it alone. With its latest quarter that ended on August 3rd, Foot Locker did show things are looking up as it restores its relationship with Nike, its biggest brand partner, with gross margin expanding for the first time in more than two years.
While Nike&rsquo;s DTC switch led to an initial boost in both sales and profits during the Covid-19 pandemic, it wasn&rsquo;t a good call for the post-Covid era when shoppers returned to physical stores. More importantly, by getting into the complexity of direct selling, Nike lost focus of its strength, innovation.&nbsp;Although the departing CEO, John Donahoe succeeded to grow annual sales by more than 31%, this growth came at a cost of churning out legacy franchises, not the groundbreaking styles that Nike build its global legacy on. The result after a short-term sales boost was that those franchises reported double digits drops which is also expected for fiscal 2025. Moreover, overall online sales for fiscal 2025 are expected to also drop in double-digits. The returning Nike veteran, Elliott Hill, is the right person to mend wholesale relationship and bring Nike back to its roots. Undoubtedly, recovery will take time and&nbsp;a stagnant sneaker market, along with&nbsp;an environment of cautious consumer spending will make it even harder&nbsp;for Hill to turn things around.

Nike Gears Up To Get Back In Shape With A New Leader

Foot Locker Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FL#NYSE">FL</a>) shares are trading lower by 3.82% to $24.16 during Wednesday&#8217;s session. Shares of footwear and athletic apparel stocks are trading lower in sympathy with Nike Inc which reported first-quarter revenue that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41129610/nike-q1-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-beat-teams-energized-amid-ceo-transition-a-comeback-at-this-scale">missed estimates</a>.
What Happened: Nike reported $11.59 billion in revenue for the quarter, missing Wall Street estimates of $11.65 billion, marking the fourth revenue miss for the company in the last five quarters. 
Nike's revenue fell 10% year-over-year, with declines across key regions such as North America, Europe and China, all of which are critical markets for both Nike and its retail partners, including Foot Locker.
Foot Locker, a leading retailer of athletic footwear and apparel, relies heavily on sales of Nike products, which historically account for a substantial portion of its overall revenue. Nike&#8217;s 8% decline in wholesale revenue is particularly concerning for Foot Locker, as it signals a potential reduction in the inventory of Nike products available to retailers.

Wholesale revenues, which amounted to $6.4 billion in the quarter, reflect sales from Nike to third-party retailers like Foot Locker, and any softness in this area could directly impact Foot Locker's ability to meet consumer demand.
What Else: Adding to these concerns is Nike&#8217;s continued emphasis on its direct-to-consumer (DTC) strategy, which allows Nike to sell its products through its own online platforms and stores, cutting out traditional retail partners. While Nike Direct revenues were down 13% to $4.7 billion in the quarter, the broader trend of Nike focusing on its DTC channels could mean less reliance on retailers like Foot Locker in the long term. 
This shift has already been seen in previous quarters, where Nike has prioritized its own retail and digital platforms to engage directly with consumers.
Moreover, Nike&#8217;s performance in North America—Foot Locker's largest market—was down 11%, further signaling potential challenges for Foot Locker. As one of Nike&#8217;s primary retail distributors, Foot Locker&#8217;s sales could suffer if demand for Nike products continues to weaken in key regions. 
Foot Locker, which operates more than 2,700 stores worldwide, is highly dependent on strong partnerships with top athletic brands like Nike. Any decline in Nike's sales momentum directly impacts Foot Locker's product offerings and profitability.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy NKE Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Foot Locker&#8217;s case, it is in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, FL has a 52-week high of $35.60 and a 52-week low of $17.66.

Shares of footwear and athletic apparel stocks are trading lower in sympathy with Nike which reported Q1 revenue that missed estimates.

Nike (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nke#NYSE">NKE</a>) just announced that its current CEO has retired, and it&#39;s bringing in a long-time employee to take the helm. Elliott Hill will become Nike&#39;s CEO on Oct. 14. He hopes to be the new face the company needs to turn its fortunes around.
I&#39;ll detail Nike&#39;s history with lame-duck CEO John Donahoe and whether Hill is truly the spark needed to reignite the ailing consumer discretionary company.
<h2>How Donahoe Led Nike Astray</h2>
Since Donahoe took over as CEO of Nike in Jan. 2020, the company&#39;s performance has been disappointing, to say the least. Shares are down 14% over that time, greatly underperforming their sector. The Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund (ARCA: XLY) has managed to rise by 57%. Revenue has increased slowly over that period, rising a total of just 20% in just under four years.
The first few months of Donahoe&#39;s tenure may have tainted his overall strategy for the company. He entered the head role just two months before the beginning of COVID-19 lockdowns in the United States. In the following quarters, Nike&#39;s direct-to-consumer revenue stream saw massive growth. Donahoe believed this trend would continue and aimed to shift more of the company&#39;s revenue toward this business.
On the surface, it doesn&#39;t seem like a bad idea. Direct-to-consumer sales usually have higher margins, and companies cut out the middleman wholesalers, letting them keep more profit. However, it somewhat discounts the fact that going to the store and trying on a pair of shoes is a key element of the purchasing process for many.
But, more importantly, it also left brick-and-mortar stores with a dearth of inventory now that Nike was sending less supply. Notably, the percentage of Foot Locker&#39;s (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fl#NYSE">FL</a>) inventory spending on Nike dropped from 75% in 2020 to 55% by the end of 2022. This opened the door for competitors to gain customer exposure, as Foot Locker needed inventory from different sources.
Previously unknown brands like On (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/onon#NYSE">ONON</a>) and Hoka were able to take advantage of this. In 2023, On received 63% of its revenue from wholesale sources and has seen its stock price rise over 50% in the past three years. Nike failed to realize how its overwhelming presence in retail stores kept new competitors from becoming well-known. The same was true for online wholesalers. Nike completely cut ties with e-commerce vendors like Zappos, causing them to need other inventory.
Another big criticism of the firm was Nike&#39;s push to sell through mobile apps. They wanted to innovate how they exposed customers to their products, but they weren&#39;t innovating the products themselves. They relied too much on very successful products and styles. They stopped pushing to create the next blockbuster shoe.
<h2>History Shows Hill Can Bring Nike Back to Its Roots and Stock Market Success</h2>
Elliott Hill began his career as an intern at Nike in 1988, just before the company had started cementing itself as the must-own shoe brand worldwide. Before its release, he watched the company&#39;s first &quot;Just Do It&quot; ad in a theater with other employees. Hill has a marketing background. He eventually worked his way up the company to oversee all commercial and marketing operations for Nike and its Jordan brand. He retired in 2020.
In the eyes of many, this is exactly what Nike needs right now. Nike has begun to move back toward relationships with wholesalers. Hill should help speed up this process. He likely worked directly with wholesale partners in his previous role. Also, after 30 years at the company, he saw all the successes and failures in product innovation and marketing that made Nike the top name in footwear.
The CEO before Donahoe was Matt Parker, a former sneaker designer. Under his reign, starting in 2006, Nike&#39;s stock provided a total return of 1,047% until Donahoe took over. That&#39;s over four times the total return of the S&amp;P 500 over that period. Donahoe, on the other hand, joined Nike after leading a cloud computing company.
<h2>Nike&#39;s Future: What to Watch For</h2>
Clearly, Nike performs better when its leader is steeped in product knowledge. Donahoe&#39;s hiring is a welcome return to that idea and has a great chance to change the market&#39;s tune on Nike. Still, it&#39;s important to hear the details of Elliot&#39;s plan before rushing back into the stock. Nike will likely provide more clarity around that at its Investor Day on Nov. 19.
