NIKE, Inc. (NKE)
Nike adds high search interest and useful consumer-brand comparison value, but it remains a turnaround-style Hold until revenue quality and product momentum improve.

Base-case assumptions
These are AnalystScope's current base-case valuation inputs. The note under each number explains why that level is considered reasonable for this company; the sensitivity line shows how much fair value moves if that judgment is wrong.
Revenue CAGR (5Y)
3.5%
+/- 1.0% => +/-$2/sh
Why this level: This is AnalystScope's base-case growth assumption, not a guarantee. It sits below the latest FY model-base revenue pace (2025.0%), so the model does not extend current strength too far into the outer years. Current company context: Product innovation and wholesale/direct channel balance drive the recovery case.
Terminal Growth
2.4%
+/- 0.5% => +/-$2/sh
Why this level: This is AnalystScope's mature long-run growth assumption, not a perpetual hypergrowth claim. At 2.4%, it sits well below the 3.5% five-year revenue CAGR, so the model steps down from the explicit forecast period to a steadier long-run pace. For NIKE, Inc., that means a durable franchise can keep compounding after year five without assuming today's faster growth profile lasts indefinitely.
WACC
8.7%
+/- 0.5% => -$3/sh
Why this level: This is AnalystScope's base-case cost-of-capital judgment, not a precise CAPM output. It reflects the current rates backdrop, equity risk premium, and the company's balance-sheet posture. Balance sheet is manageable but not the core upside driver
Operating Margin (Year 5)
12.0%
+/- 100 bps => +/-$2/sh
Why this level: This is AnalystScope's base-case margin view, not a promise of straight-line expansion. It keeps year-five margins close to today's model-base operating margin (10.2%), which implies the current margin structure is broadly durable. Margin input reflects a measured turnaround path rather than an immediate return to prior peak profitability.
How to read the assumptions and sensitivities
These are base-case assumptions used to estimate fair value. They are reasonable model inputs, not reported facts.
Each sensitivity line shows the estimated fair-value-per-share change from a small move in that one input while the other inputs stay fixed.
bps means basis points. 100 bps equals 1.00 percentage point.
WACC sensitivity moves in the opposite direction because a higher discount rate lowers present value, while a lower discount rate raises it.
Scenario workbench
Private scenario sandbox
This is a private modelling layer, not the public AnalystScope base case or printable snapshot. It keeps the public base case as the anchor, applies bounded changes to the four core valuation inputs, and updates your scenario fair-value estimate immediately.
Saved scenarios currently stay local to this browser for NKE. Base-case rationale remains in the public assumptions section above. Your scenario output reprices the published valuation methods from projected operating anchors when those anchors are available, while keeping market-multiple and capital-structure assumptions anchored to the AnalystScope framework.
Editable assumptions
Adjust your scenario inputs within the displayed plausible range for this company. The workbench stays anchored to the public AnalystScope base case.
This is a bounded scenario tool, not a free-form spreadsheet. Values outside the displayed range snap back to the nearest allowed value when you leave the field.

Method movement inside the scenario
This breakdown shows what moved inside the published valuation framework when you edit the scenario. The published AnalystScope base case stays anchored, and any method without a clean projected anchor remains pinned to that framework.
Method rows below reflect the current edited scenario state, not just the saved scenario snapshots.
Influence tags are directional rather than exact attribution. They estimate which edited input is moving each method most by reverting one assumption at a time while the other edited inputs stay in place.

Model base vs reported fundamentals
Side-by-side view of the latest live reported fundamentals versus the current AnalystScope model base used in public valuation and thesis work.
Reported numbers show the latest company print. Model base is the comparable operating base AnalystScope uses for valuation work, which can include standardization, conservative balance-sheet treatment, working-capital cleanup, and through-cycle adjustments when current reported figures do not look durable.

Reported vs durable model base
How to read this
Reported = the latest company-reported figure. Model base = AnalystScope's comparable operating base used for valuation and thesis work. It may include standardization, conservative balance-sheet treatment, working-capital cleanup, and through-cycle adjustments when current reported numbers do not look durable.
This is an analyst model base, not a claim of perfect adjusted truth. Larger gaps can reflect deliberate cyclical or base-case adjustments, not just light accounting cleanup.
Why the model base differs
Nike is modeled as a brand-turnaround case with still-fragile revenue momentum and a fair-value range that depends heavily on margin recovery evidence.
Rows are sorted by largest comparable adjustment first.
| Metric | Model base | Live reported | Variance vs reported | Adjustment size | Why lower / higher? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
FCF (TTM) | $4.0B FY2025 model base | $3.3B Live reported TTM | +$700.0M / +21% | Large analyst adjustment | Model base is higher than live reported because the model does not assume the latest cash-flow drag is fully durable. It normalizes inventory and demand-generation spending during the brand reset. |
Revenue (TTM) | $49.0B FY2025 model base | $46.3B Live reported TTM | +$2.7B / +6% | Close to reported | Model base is higher than live reported because the thesis does not assume the latest reported softness is the durable revenue run-rate. It smooths the current product-cycle reset and avoids treating one weak demand period as permanent. |
Net Cash / (Debt) | ($2.0B) FY2025 model base | ($1.4B) Live reported balance sheet | -$600.0M / -1% of revenue | Close to reported | Model base is more conservative than the live reported balance-sheet figure. It keeps the modest net-debt position neutral rather than a source of upside. |
Operating Margin | 10.2% FY2025 model base | Unavailable Live reported margin | Unavailable | Unavailable | AnalystScope keeps a separate model base when the latest reported figure is unavailable or not directly comparable. It reflects a measured turnaround path rather than an immediate return to prior peak profitability. |

Thesis scorecard
Qualitative scorecard of the main thesis dimensions behind the current investment view.
Growth
WeakRevenue momentum remains pressured during the brand reset.
Profitability
ModerateMargins can recover, but evidence is still early.
Balance sheet
ModerateLeverage is manageable and not the main constraint.
Valuation
ModerateThe lower stock price helps, but the model still needs turnaround proof.
Execution / Resilience
ModerateBrand equity is valuable, though execution risk is elevated.
Key drivers
Product innovation and wholesale/direct channel balance drive the recovery case.
Gross-margin repair depends on cleaner inventory and less promotional pressure.
Brand relevance in running, basketball, and lifestyle categories remains central.
Key risks
Turnaround efforts may take longer than the current valuation assumes.
Competitive pressure from specialist and emerging brands could keep growth muted.
Inventory or promotional pressure could delay margin recovery.
What would change our view
Clear evidence of revenue stabilization would improve the setup.
A stronger gross-margin recovery without heavy discounting would raise conviction.
Further share loss or channel disruption would keep the rating restrained.
Near-term catalysts
Quarterly revenue trajectory and management commentary on product pipeline remain key.
Inventory quality and gross-margin bridge will matter for the model.
Wholesale partner commentary can help confirm whether demand is stabilizing.
What we are watching
Whether product launches are improving demand rather than only clearing inventory.
How quickly direct and wholesale channels rebalance.
Whether management can protect brand equity while restoring growth.
