The athletic-shoe maker reported revenue increase of 14% to $4.34 billion, surpassing expectations of $4.21 billion. Nike, which recently announced it would buy British soccer brand Umbro, has been largely unaffected by a slump in demand for athletic shoes among U.S. mall-based retailers. European sales rose 18% while sales in Asia increased 17%, both lifted by currency translations. Nike opened a flagship store in Beijing in August as it expands its reach in China. |
