Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of NIKE, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “NIKE”) and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data as of May 31, 2021, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The interim financial information and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021. The results of operations for the three and six months ended November 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The extent to which the evolving COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company's financial statements depends on a number of factors, including the magnitude and duration of the pandemic. There have been and may continue to be developments outside of the Company's control, including new COVID-19 variants, that require the Company to make adjustments to its operating plan, such as store operating hours and the timeline to return to normal production volumes in factories impacted by COVID-19. Such developments and other potential impacts of COVID-19, such as new or prolonged factory closures, higher inventory levels or inventory shortages in various markets, other adverse impacts on the global supply chain, revised payment terms with certain of its wholesale customers, higher sales-related reserves, factory cancellation costs and a volatile effective tax rate driven by changes in the mix of earnings across its jurisdictions, among other factors, could have material adverse impacts on the Company's revenue growth as well as its overall profitability in future periods. As a result of these circumstances, COVID-19 related disruptions are making it more challenging to compare the Company's performance, including its revenue growth and overall profitability, across quarters and fiscal years, and the Company expects the operating environment will remain volatile as COVID-19 variants continue to cause disruption to operations.

Income Taxes
NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate was 11.0% and 12.7% for the six months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate was primarily due to a more favorable impact from stock-based compensation and discrete items such as the recognition of a reserve in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 related to Altera Corp. v. Commissioner. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate was partially offset by a change in the Company's earnings mix.
As of November 30, 2021, total gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding related interest and penalties, were $926 million, $651 million of which would affect the Company's effective tax rate if recognized in future periods. The majority of the total gross unrecognized tax benefits are long-term in nature and included within Deferred income taxes and other liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of May 31, 2021, total gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding related interest and penalties, were $896 million. The liability for payment of interest and penalties increased by $23 million during the six months ended November 30, 2021. As of November 30, 2021 and May 31, 2021, accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were $226 million and $203 million, respectively (excluding federal benefit).
The Company is subject to taxation in the United States, as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is currently under audit by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for fiscal years 2017 through 2019. The Company has closed all U.S. federal income tax matters through fiscal 2016, with the exception of certain transfer pricing adjustments.
Tax years after 2010 remain open in certain major foreign jurisdictions. Although the timing of resolution of audits is not certain, the Company evaluates all domestic and foreign audit issues in the aggregate, along with the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations, and estimates that it is reasonably possible the total gross unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by up to $20 million within the next 12 months. In January 2019, the European Commission opened a formal investigation to examine whether the Netherlands has breached State Aid rules when granting certain tax rulings to the Company. The Company believes the investigation is without merit. If this matter is adversely resolved, the Netherlands may be required to assess additional amounts with respect to prior periods, and the Company's income taxes related to prior periods in the Netherlands could increase.

(1)Expense for stock options includes the expense associated with stock appreciation rights. Accelerated stock option expense is primarily recorded for employees meeting certain retirement eligibility requirements and certain employees impacted by the Company's organizational realignment. For more information, see Note 13 — Restructuring.
(2)Includes expense for performance-based restricted stock units granted during the six months ended November 30, 2021.
The income tax benefit related to stock-based compensation expense was $87 million and $108 million for the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $273 million and $189 million for the six months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
STOCK OPTIONS
The weighted average fair value per share of the options granted during the six months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, computed as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing model, was $37.53 and $26.75, respectively. The weighted average assumptions used to estimate these fair values were as follows:
 SIX MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30,
20212020
Dividend yield0.8 %0.9 %
Expected volatility24.9 %27.3 %
Weighted average expected life (in years)5.86.0
Risk-free interest rate0.9 %0.4 %
Expected volatilities are based on an analysis of the historical volatility of the Company's common stock, the implied volatility in market-traded options on the Company's common stock with a term greater than one year, as well as other factors. The weighted average expected life of options is based on an analysis of historical and expected future exercise patterns. The interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury (constant maturity) risk-free rate in effect at the date of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of the options.
As of November 30, 2021, the Company had $570 million of unrecognized compensation costs from stock options, net of estimated forfeitures, to be recognized in Cost of sales or Operating overhead expense, as applicable, over a weighted average remaining period of 2.7 years.
RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
The weighted average fair value per share of restricted stock and restricted stock units granted for the six months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, computed as of the grant date, was $163.27 and $109.36, respectively.
During the six months ended November 30, 2021, under the Stock Incentive Plan, the Company granted performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs), which were historically in the form of cash-based long-term incentive awards under the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Company estimates the fair value of these PSUs as of the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation. The weighted average fair value per share of PSUs granted for the six months ended November 30, 2021, computed as of the grant date, was $250.52. The impact of granting PSUs during the six months ended November 30, 2021, was not material to the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
As of November 30, 2021, the Company had $624 million of unrecognized compensation costs from restricted stock, restricted stock units and PSUs, net of estimated forfeitures, to be recognized in Cost of sales or Operating overhead expense, as applicable, over a weighted average remaining period of 2.7 years.

Risk Management and Derivatives
NOTE 8 — RISK MANAGEMENT AND DERIVATIVES
The Company is exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and uses derivatives to manage financial exposures that occur in the normal course of business. As of and for the six months ended November 30, 2021, there have been no material changes to the Company's hedging program or strategy from what was disclosed within the Annual Report on Form 10-K. For additional information about the Company's derivatives and hedging policies refer to Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 14 — Risk Management and Derivatives of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021.
The majority of derivatives outstanding as of November 30, 2021, are designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges, primarily for Euro/U.S. Dollar, British Pound/Euro, Chinese Yuan/U.S. Dollar and Japanese Yen/U.S. Dollar currency pairs. All derivatives are recognized on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and classified based on the instrument's maturity date.

CASH FLOW HEDGES
All changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedge instruments are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until Net income is affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. Effective hedge results are classified in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the same manner as the underlying exposure. When it is no longer probable the forecasted hedged transaction will occur in the initially identified time period, hedge accounting is discontinued and the Company accounts for the associated derivative as an undesignated instrument as discussed below. Additionally, the gains and losses associated with derivatives no longer designated as cash flow hedge instruments in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are recognized immediately in Other (income) expense, net, if it is probable the forecasted hedged transaction will not occur by the end of the initially identified time period or within an additional two-month period thereafter. In rare circumstances, the additional period of time may exceed two months due to extenuating circumstances related to the nature of the forecasted transaction that are outside the control or influence of the Company.
The total notional amount of outstanding foreign currency derivatives designated as cash flow hedges was approximately $13.1 billion as of November 30, 2021. Approximately $296 million of deferred net gains (net of tax) on both outstanding and matured derivatives in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of November 30, 2021, are expected to be reclassified to Net income during the next 12 months concurrent with the underlying hedged transactions also being recorded in Net income. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified to Net income are dependent on the exchange rates in effect when derivative contracts currently outstanding mature. As of November 30, 2021, the maximum term over which the Company hedges exposures to the variability of cash flows for its forecasted transactions was 24 months.
UNDESIGNATED DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company may elect to enter into foreign exchange forwards to mitigate the change in fair value of specific assets and liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and/or embedded derivative contracts. These undesignated instruments are recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with their corresponding change in fair value recognized in Other (income) expense, net, together with the remeasurement gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position and/or embedded derivative contract. The total notional amount of outstanding undesignated derivative instruments was $3.3 billion as of November 30, 2021.
EMBEDDED DERIVATIVES
Embedded derivative contracts are treated as foreign currency forward contracts that are bifurcated from the related contract and recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with their corresponding change in fair value recognized in Other (income) expense, net, through the date the foreign currency fluctuations cease to exist.
As of November 30, 2021, the total notional amount of embedded derivatives outstanding was approximately $634 million.
CREDIT RISK
The Company's bilateral credit-related contingent features generally require the owing entity, either the Company or the derivative counterparty, to post collateral for the portion of the fair value in excess of $50 million should the fair value of outstanding derivatives per counterparty be greater than $50 million. Additionally, a certain level of decline in credit rating of either the Company or the counterparty could trigger collateral requirements. As of November 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all credit risk-related contingent features, and derivative instruments with such features were in a net asset position of approximately $471 million. Accordingly, the Company was not required to post cash collateral as a result of these contingent features. Further, $141 million of collateral was received on the Company's derivative asset balance as of November 30, 2021. The Company considers the impact of the risk of counterparty default to be immaterial.
For additional information related to the Company's derivative financial instruments and collateral, refer to Note 4 — Fair Value Measurements.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Operating Segments
NOTE 11 — OPERATING SEGMENTS
The Company's operating segments are evidence of the structure of the Company's internal organization. The NIKE Brand segments are defined by geographic regions for operations participating in NIKE Brand sales activity.
Each NIKE Brand geographic segment operates predominantly in one industry: the design, development, marketing and selling of athletic footwear, apparel and equipment. The Company's reportable operating segments for the NIKE Brand are: North America; Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA); Greater China; and Asia Pacific & Latin America (APLA), and include results for the NIKE and Jordan brands.
The Company's NIKE Direct operations are managed within each NIKE Brand geographic operating segment. Converse is also a reportable segment for the Company and operates in one industry: the design, marketing, licensing and selling of athletic lifestyle sneakers, apparel and accessories.
Global Brand Divisions is included within the NIKE Brand for presentation purposes to align with the way management views the Company. Global Brand Divisions revenues include NIKE Brand licensing and other miscellaneous revenues that are not part of a geographic operating segment. Global Brand Divisions costs represent demand creation and operating overhead expense that include product creation and design expenses centrally managed for the NIKE Brand, as well as costs associated with NIKE Direct global digital operations and enterprise technology.
Corporate consists primarily of unallocated general and administrative expenses, including expenses associated with centrally managed departments; depreciation and amortization related to the Company's headquarters; unallocated insurance, benefit and compensation programs, including stock-based compensation; and certain foreign currency gains and losses, including certain hedge gains and losses.
The primary financial measure used by the Company to evaluate performance of individual operating segments is earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), which represents Net income before Interest expense (income), net and Income tax expense in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
As part of the Company's centrally managed foreign exchange risk management program, standard foreign currency rates are assigned twice per year to each NIKE Brand entity in the Company's geographic operating segments and to Converse. These rates are set approximately nine and twelve months in advance of the future selling seasons to which they relate (specifically, for each currency, one standard rate applies to the fall and holiday selling seasons and one standard rate applies to the spring and summer selling seasons) based on average market spot rates in the calendar month preceding the date they are established. Inventories and Cost of sales for geographic operating segments and Converse reflect the use of these standard rates to record non-functional currency product purchases in the entity's functional currency. Differences between assigned standard foreign currency rates and actual market rates are included in Corporate, together with foreign currency hedge gains and losses generated from the Company's centrally managed foreign exchange risk management program and other conversion gains and losses.
Accounts receivable, net, Inventories and Property, plant and equipment, net for operating segments are regularly reviewed by management and are therefore provided below.

NOTE 12 — ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
As previously disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021, the Company remains committed to selling its legal entities in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay and granting distribution rights to third-party distributors. As such, the assets and liabilities of the entities have remained classified as held-for-sale on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of November 30, 2021, held-for-sale assets were $209 million, primarily consisting of $86 million of Accounts receivable, net and $61 million of Inventories; held-for-sale liabilities were $76 million, primarily consisting of $29 million of Accrued liabilities and $26 million of Accounts payable.
As of May 31, 2021, held-for-sale assets were $175 million, primarily consisting of $76 million of Inventories and $59 million of Accounts receivable, net; held-for-sale liabilities were $72 million, primarily consisting of $25 million of Accounts payable and $22 million of Accrued liabilities.
As of November 30, 2021, the Company has recognized a total expected net loss related to the Argentina, Chile and Uruguay transaction of $344 million within Other (income) expense, net, classified within Corporate, and a corresponding allowance within Accrued liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The initial expected loss of $405 million recognized in fiscal 2020 and the subsequent adjustments for changes in fair value are largely due to the anticipated release of the cumulative foreign currency translation losses. These losses will be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to Net income upon sale of the legal entities.

NOTE 13 — RESTRUCTURING
In fiscal 2021, the Company announced a new digitally empowered phase of its Consumer Direct Offense strategy: Consumer Direct Acceleration. During fiscal 2021, the Company substantially completed a series of leadership and operating model changes to streamline and speed up strategic execution of the Consumer Direct Acceleration. For the three and six months ended November 30, 2021, the Company recognized an immaterial amount of related employee termination costs and, to a lesser extent, stock-based compensation expense.
During the three months ended November 30, 2020, the Company recognized employee termination costs of $107 million and $30 million within Operating overhead expense and Cost of sales, respectively, and made cash payments of $67 million. For the six months ended November 30, 2020, the Company recognized employee termination costs of $145 million and $30 million within Operating overhead expense and Cost of sales, respectively, and made cash payments of $71 million. For all periods presented these costs were classified within Corporate.
Additionally, the related stock-based compensation expense recorded within Operating overhead expense and Cost of sales was $30 million and $4 million, respectively, for the three months ended November 30, 2020, and $39 million and $4 million, respectively, for the six months ended November 30, 2020.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of NIKE, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “NIKE”) and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data as of May 31, 2021, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The interim financial information and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021. The results of operations for the three and six months ended November 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
Fair Value Measurements The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including derivatives, equity securities and available-for-sale debt securities.
Hedging Derivatives CASH FLOW HEDGESAll changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedge instruments are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until Net income is affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. Effective hedge results are classified in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the same manner as the underlying exposure. When it is no longer probable the forecasted hedged transaction will occur in the initially identified time period, hedge accounting is discontinued and the Company accounts for the associated derivative as an undesignated instrument as discussed below. Additionally, the gains and losses associated with derivatives no longer designated as cash flow hedge instruments in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are recognized immediately in Other (income) expense, net, if it is probable the forecasted hedged transaction will not occur by the end of the initially identified time period or within an additional two-month period thereafter. In rare circumstances, the additional period of time may exceed two months due to extenuating circumstances related to the nature of the forecasted transaction that are outside the control or influence of the Company.
Undesignated Derivative Instruments UNDESIGNATED DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTSThe Company may elect to enter into foreign exchange forwards to mitigate the change in fair value of specific assets and liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and/or embedded derivative contracts. These undesignated instruments are recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with their corresponding change in fair value recognized in Other (income) expense, net, together with the remeasurement gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position and/or embedded derivative contract.
Embedded Derivatives EMBEDDED DERIVATIVESEmbedded derivative contracts are treated as foreign currency forward contracts that are bifurcated from the related contract and recorded at fair value as a derivative asset or liability on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with their corresponding change in fair value recognized in Other (income) expense, net, through the date the foreign currency fluctuations cease to exist.
