In the meantime, our current consensus estimate forecasts the revenue to be $11.15 billion, indicating a 10.26% decline compared to the corresponding quarter of the prior year.
For the annual period, the Zacks Consensus Estimates anticipate earnings of $2.10 per share and a revenue of $46.34 billion, signifying shifts of -46.84% and -9.78%, respectively, from the last year.
Furthermore, it would be beneficial for investors to monitor any recent shifts in analyst projections for Nike. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.
