NIKE said on its fiscal first-quarter call that it expects EBIT to decline by a greater percentage than revenue in fiscal 2027. It said this reflects continued gross margin pressure and fixed cost deleverage, partly offset by disciplined expense management. Chief Financial Officer David Denton said the guidance range assumes China revenue gets worse for the balance of the year.
