Q218 - Improvement coming through as expected

Nike reported Q218 EPS of $0.46 vs consensus $0.40, with revenue growth of 5% vs guidance low-single-digits and 3% consensus. Gross margin declined 120bp but was better than expected. ASPs were positive, DTC delivered strong growth, +15%, basketball was up double-digits, int'l was up in the low teens. The reduction in North America wholesale is progressing as guided, with the region down 5% overall. The stock declined slightly after hours on lower than expected Q3 guidance, though this appears to be driven primarily by timing, with the FY guidance reiterated and Q4 expected to show significant inflection.
