  • We've had an amazing year 1 with the NBA.

    我們在 NBA 度過了令人驚嘆的第一年。

  • We had a lot of firsts this year, but I'd say our 3 biggest wins were our editions approach to jerseys, driving significantly higher NBA jersey sales than the league has ever had, the Showtime Hoodie, which was a new premium apparel business for fiscal '18 with sell-through approaching 100% across most teams and channels and the steady flow of LeBron player edition footwear that we launched through LeBron Watch on the SNKRS App, which is a new feature that turns the on-court footwear into real-time buying opportunities.

    今年我們創造了很多第一,但我想說,我們的3 個最大的勝利是我們對球衣的版本方法,推動NBA 球衣的銷量顯著高於聯盟以往的水平,Showtime 連帽衫,這是一項新的高端服裝業務18 財年,大多數球隊和通路的銷售率接近100%,我們透過SNKRS 應用程式上的LeBron Watch 推出的LeBron 球員版鞋款源源不斷,這是一項新功能,可將場上鞋款變成真正的鞋款-時間買入機會。

  • Jordan Brand proved, too, that the NBA is the ultimate sneaker runway.

    Jordan Brand 也證明了 NBA 是終極運動鞋跑道。

  • In many ways, Jordan defines the spectrum of performance and style as part of the pregame walk-in, on the court with the game's best players and courtside with fans.

    在許多方面,喬丹將表現和風格的範圍定義為賽前的一部分,在球場上與比賽中最好的球員一起,在場邊與球迷在一起。

  • But we know consumers are demanding more from Jordan, and we know that people want wider access and new dimensions.

    但我們知道消費者對約旦的要求更高,我們也知道人們想要更廣泛的接觸和新的維度。

    我們繼續在主要城市發展我們的感測能力,並強化 Express Lane,這是我們成長最快的產品引擎,也是我們速度計畫的關鍵焦點。

  • This quarter, the Express Lane created a substantial impact by extending our in-line stories with new materials and colors as the teams did with the Air Max 270 this quarter, and amplifying the brand concepts we know are connecting best with consumers like the Tuned Air Mercurial to celebrate World Cup, and capturing emerging trends like we did in EMEA with the '90s apparel collection where we identified the trend and quickly delivered product to market.

    本季度,Express Lane 透過使用新材料和顏色來擴展我們的內聯故事,就像本季團隊對Air Max 270 所做的那樣,並擴大了我們知道最能與消費者建立聯繫的品牌概念(例如Tuned Air),從而產生了重大影響Mercurial 慶祝世界杯,並捕捉新興趨勢,就像我們在 EMEA 的 90 年代服裝系列中所做的那樣,我們識別了趨勢並迅速將產品推向市場。

  • Express Lane, as a whole, is leading to significantly stronger full-price sell-through rates.

    總體而言,Express Lane 正在導致全價售出率顯著提高。

    2X Speed 是一個多年的旅程,雖然我們已經取得了進展,但我們也知道這個領域還有更大的機會。

  • We've closed out the fiscal year with a strong performance across our business.

    我們以強勁的業務表現結束了本財年。

  • Being closer to the consumer and our new offense has us focused on the biggest growth opportunities, making the right investments with the greatest returns.

    更貼近消費者和我們的新進攻使我們專注於最大的成長機會,做出正確的投資以獲得最大的回報。

  • We fueled increased demand for NIKE in fiscal '18.

    我們在 18 財年推動了 NIKE 的需求增加。

  • In fiscal '19, we'll continue that acceleration with an even faster pace of innovation and by serving consumers more completely across our entire portfolio.

    在 19 財年,我們將繼續加速發展,加快創新步伐,並在整個產品組合中為消費者提供更全面的服務。

  • We have momentum, and we're continuing to transform across multiple dimensions and throughout our entire organization.

    我們有動力,我們將繼續在多個層面和整個組織內進行轉型。

  • And I'm confident we'll use this quarter as a catalyst for growth into fiscal '19 and beyond.

    我相信我們將利用本季作為 19 財年及以後成長的催化劑。

  • Thanks, and now here's Andy.

    謝謝,現在安迪來了。

  • Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

    Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

  • Thank you, Mark, and hello to everyone on the call.

    謝謝你,馬克,並向通話中的每個人問好。

  • Fiscal year '18 was a strategically significant year for NIKE.

    18 財年對耐吉來說是具有戰略意義的一年。

  • As we began the fiscal year last June, we communicated our new strategy, the Consumer Direct Offense, which we believe would ignite NIKE's next horizon of strong, sustainable profitable growth and transform the company in the process.

    去年六月開始本財年時,我們傳達了我們的新戰略,即“消費者直接進攻”,我們相信該戰略將點燃耐克下一個強勁、可持續盈利增長的前景,並在此過程中實現公司轉型。

  • Then, at our Investor Day this past October, we showcased how our new strategy was already beginning to come to life.

    然後,在去年十月的投資者日上,我們展示了我們的新策略是如何開始實施的。

  • We displayed the pipeline of innovative products that we plan to bring to market in the second half of fiscal year '18 on our path to 2X Innovation.

    我們展示了我們計劃在 18 財年下半年推向市場的一系列創新產品,以實現 2 倍創新。

  • We immersed our stakeholders in the relaunch of our NIKE and SNKRS App experiences and the new membership services that would ignite 2X Direct.

    我們讓利害關係人沉浸在重新推出的 NIKE 和 SNKRS 應用程式體驗以及將點燃 2X Direct 的新會員服務中。

  • And we shared several of the manufacturing and supply chain initiatives that will help 2x our speed and ultimately cut our time to market in half.

    我們分享了一些製造和供應鏈計劃,這些計劃將幫助我們將速度提高兩倍,並最終將我們的上市時間縮短一半。

  • Of course, we also established a new long-term financial model.

    當然,我們也建立了新的長期財務模式。

  • But perhaps even more notable than the financial goals we established were some of the key operational measures of success that we shared.

    但也許比我們所製定的財務目標更引人注目的是我們分享的一些衡量成功的關鍵營運指標。

  • Those measures of success better define how we will transform NIKE into a digitally led enterprise that connects more directly with our consumers globally through our key cities and countries.

    這些衡量成功的標準更好地定義了我們如何將耐吉轉變為數位主導的企業,透過我們的主要城市和國家與全球消費者更直接地聯繫。

  • And as we now close Q4, we are thrilled to see our strategic execution translating into strong financial performance as both revenue growth and profitability exceeded even our own expectations.

    隨著第四季度的結束,我們很高興看到我們的策略執行轉化為強勁的財務業績,收入成長和獲利能力甚至超出了我們自己的預期。

  • At the same time, what's even more exciting is that we also delivered across all of our key operational measures of success, and it's worth highlighting a few examples as these are proof points that NIKE's strategic transformation is underway at an accelerated pace.

    同時,更令人興奮的是,我們也實現了所有成功的關鍵營運指標,值得強調的幾個例子,因為這些證明了耐吉的策略轉型正在加速進行。

  • So first, we said that new innovation platforms will drive over 50% of our incremental growth over the next 5 years.

    首先,我們表示新的創新平台將在未來 5 年內推動我們 50% 以上的增量成長。

  • In fiscal year '18, revenue from new innovative platforms actually drove over 80% of our incremental growth, fueled by innovative new platforms such as the Air VaporMax, React, the Air Max 270 and ZoomX.

    在 18 財年,在 Air VaporMax、React、Air Max 270 和 ZoomX 等創新平台的推動下,來自新創新平台的收入實際上推動了我們增量成長的 80% 以上。

  • We also said that we would 2X Direct with digital commerce growth both owned and partnered comprising over 50% of NIKE's total company growth over the next 5 years.

    我們也表示,在未來 5 年內,我們將透過自有和合作的數位商務成長實現 2 倍的直接成長,佔耐吉公司總成長的 50% 以上。

  • In fiscal year '18, NIKE Direct, in fact, drove over 90% of our growth, and 100% of our growth was driven by the combination of NIKE Direct and partnered NIKE Consumer Experiences.

    事實上,在 18 財年,NIKE Direct 推動了我們 90% 以上的成長,而我們 100% 的成長是由 NIKE Direct 和合作夥伴 NIKE 消費者體驗相結合所推動的。

  • NIKE Digital, in particular, grew 34% in Q4 on a constant currency basis and was the single fastest growing channel globally.

    尤其是 NIKE Digital,以固定匯率計算,第四季成長了 34%,是全球成長最快的單一管道。

  • Yet, for many of the hottest styles launched on NIKE Digital platforms within the quarter, our supply was only a fraction of the actual demand we experienced.

    然而,對於本季耐吉數位平台上推出的許多最熱門款式來說,我們的供應量只是我們實際需求的一小部分。

  • This underscores a significant opportunity to better sense and serve digital demand in fiscal year '19.

    這凸顯了在 19 財年更好地感知和服務數位需求的重大機會。

  • We also said in October that we expect our international geographies to drive over 75% of our growth and that North America would return to mid-single-digit growth over the next 5 years.

    我們也在 10 月表示,預計國際地區將推動我們 75% 以上的成長,北美地區將在未來 5 年內恢復到中個位數成長。

  • For the full year, our international geographies accounted for over 100% of our growth with Greater China growing nearly 2x the rate of any other geography on a currency-neutral basis.

    全年來看,我們的國際地區對我們成長的貢獻率超過 100%,其中大中華區的成長速度是任何其他地區(在貨幣中性的基礎上)的近 2 倍。

  • And in Q4, North America returned to growth, sharply reversing its prior trend.

    第四季度,北美地區恢復成長,大幅扭轉了先前的趨勢。

  • As Mark said, as we enter fiscal year '19, we are now running a more complete offense across our global portfolio.

    正如馬克所說,隨著我們進入 19 財年,我們現在正在全球投資組合中進行更全面的進攻。

  • But before I go deeper into our outlook for fiscal year '19, let's first reflect on the drivers of our strong Q4 results.

    但在深入探討 19 財年的前景之前,讓我們先反思一下第四季強勁業績的驅動因素。

  • NIKE, Inc.

    耐吉公司

  • Q4 revenue increased 13%, up 8% on a currency-neutral basis driven by double-digit international growth and a return to growth in North America.

    第四季營收成長 13%,在兩位數的國際成長和北美恢復成長的推動下,在貨幣中性的基礎上成長 8%。

  • NIKE Direct led our growth globally, including 5% comp store growth and 34% digital growth.

    NIKE Direct 引領我們的全球成長,包括 5% 的實體店成長和 34% 的數位成長。

  • For the full year, NIKE, Inc.

    全年來看,耐吉公司 (NIKE, Inc.)

  • revenue increased 6% to $36.4 billion, up 4% on a currency-neutral basis.

    營收成長 6%,達到 364 億美元,在匯率中立的基礎上成長 4%。

  • Gross margin expanded over 60 basis points in Q4, exceeding our own expectations due to accelerating full-price sales and NIKE Digital growth.

    由於全價銷售加速和耐吉數位成長,第四季毛利率成長了 60 個基點以上,超出了我們的預期。

  • For the full year, gross margin contracted just under 80 basis points as strong underlying product profitability was more than offset by a 90 basis point headwind from foreign exchange.

    全年毛利率收縮略低於 80 個基點,因為強勁的基礎產品獲利能力被外匯帶來的 90 個基點的逆風所抵消。

  • Fourth quarter demand creation increased 25%, primarily driven by investments in new sports marketing assets such as Chelsea, Tottenham and the NBA; brand marketing around key global sporting events such as the NBA Finals and the World Cup; and global campaigns supporting the launch of new product innovations.

    第四季需求創造成長了 25%,主要是由於對切爾西、托特納姆熱刺和 NBA 等新體育行銷資產的投資推動;圍繞NBA總決賽、世界盃等全球重要運動賽事進行品牌行銷;以及支持新產品創新推出的全球活動。

  • For the full year, demand creation increased 7%.

    全年需求創造成長了 7%。

  • Operating overhead increased 14% for the quarter and 10% for the full year as we're investing in capabilities that will fuel long-term growth, particularly with respect to digital and innovation.

    由於我們投資於能夠推動長期成長的能力,特別是在數位和創新方面,本季營運費用增加了 14%,全年營運費用增加了 10%。

  • Our effective tax rate was 6.4% for the quarter and 55.3% for the full year.

    我們本季的有效稅率為 6.4%,全年的有效稅率為 55.3%。

  • The full year rate was significantly higher than the prior year, primarily due to the onetime transition tax associated with U.S. tax reform.

    全年稅率顯著高於上年,這主要是由於與美國稅制改革相關的一次性過渡稅。

  • Fourth quarter diluted EPS increased 15% to $0.69.

    第四季攤薄後每股收益成長 15%,達到 0.69 美元。

  • Full year diluted EPS declined 53% to $1.17, taking into account the significant onetime impacts of U.S. tax reform.

    考慮到美國稅制改革的重大一次性影響,全年稀釋後每股收益下降 53% 至 1.17 美元。

  • As of May 31, inventories were up 4%, growing slower than the rate of revenue growth, which is an indication that our supply and demand management efforts over the course of fiscal year '18 have returned NIKE to a strong pull market globally.

    截至 5 月 31 日,庫存增長了 4%,增長速度低於收入增長速度,這表明我們在 18 財年的供需管理工作已使 NIKE 重新回到全球強勁的拉動市場。

  • Finally, today, we're announcing a new 4-year $15 billion share repurchase program.

    最後,今天,我們宣布一項為期 4 年、價值 150 億美元的新股票回購計畫。

  • We anticipate that our current $12 billion share repurchase program will be completed within fiscal year '19.

    我們預計目前 120 億美元的股票回購計畫將在 19 財年完成。

  • This new expanded authorization, coupled with our dividend program, are evidence of NIKE's strong cash flow generation and steadily increasing cash returns to shareholders.

    這項新的擴大授權,加上我們的股息計劃,證明了耐吉強勁的現金流產生能力和股東現金回報的穩定成長。

  • Now let's turn to the financial performance for a few of our reported operating segments.

    現在讓我們來看看我們報告的一些營運部門的財務表現。

  • In North America, Q4 revenue grew 3% on a reported basis and currency-neutral basis, led by new innovation platforms, very strong digital growth, continued momentum in Sportswear and broad growth across apparel.

    在北美,第四季度營收在報告基礎和貨幣中性基礎上增長了3%,這主要得益於新的創新平台、非常強勁的數位成長、運動裝的持續成長動能以及整個服裝領域的廣泛成長。

  • We've returned North America to revenue growth and expanding margins, and this healthy momentum is carrying forward into this new fiscal year.

    我們已經使北美地區恢復了收入成長和利潤率擴大,這種健康的勢頭將延續到這個新的財政年度。

  • As we expected, digital continues to reshape the consumer experience and to some extent, disrupt the more undifferentiated multi-brand wholesale dimensions of the marketplace.

    正如我們所預期的那樣,數位化繼續重塑消費者體驗,並在某種程度上擾亂市場中更無差異化的多品牌批發維度。

  • However, NIKE Consumer Experiences at retail, both owned and partnered, and particularly those that leverage a digital connection to the consumer, drove over 2/3 of our growth in North America.

    然而,耐吉在零售領域的消費者體驗(無論是自有的還是合作的),尤其是那些利用與消費者的數位連結的消費者體驗,推動了我們在北美地區超過 2/3 的成長。

  • Digital connections have been critical to launching new and innovative products, creating brand heat and better serving consumer demand.

    數位連結對於推出新的創新產品、創造品牌熱度和更好地滿足消費者需求至關重要。

  • For example, as part of the Epic React launch, through social media, we invited our consumers to Choose Go.

    例如,作為 Epic React 發布的一部分,我們透過社群媒體邀請消費者選擇 Go。

  • The Choose Go campaign inspired more than 1 million NIKE+ members to participate in a run on the NIKE Running Club (sic) [Run Club] app that day and generated over 500 million social media impressions.

    當天,Choose Go 活動激勵了超過 100 萬 NIKE+ 會員在 NIKE Running Club(原文如此)[Run Club] 應用程式上參與跑步,並產生了超過 5 億次社交媒體曝光。

  • We also launched an exclusive colorway of the Epic React with DICK'S Sporting Goods through a takeover of their digital commerce platform and social media channels.

    我們也透過收購 DICK'S Sporting Goods 的數位商務平台和社群媒體管道,推出了 Epic React 的獨家配色。

  • And as Mark detailed, we're in the process of launching the NIKE App at Retail in key markets, bringing NIKE+ membership into the store and accelerating the convergence of digital and physical retail.

    正如 Mark 所詳述的,我們正在主要市場的零售店推出 NIKE 應用程序,將 NIKE+ 會員資格帶入商店,並加速數位零售和實體零售的融合。

  • As for the Jordan Brand in North America, we are already back to a pull market and we expect a return to global growth in fiscal year '19.

    至於北美的 Jordan 品牌,我們已經回到了拉動市場,我們預計 19 財年將恢復全球成長。

  • Consumers love the Jordan Brand, and their passion for the brand is unwavering.

    消費者喜愛 Jordan 品牌,他們對品牌的熱情是堅定不移的。

  • At the same time, we saw an opportunity to recalibrate the supply of select styles across just distribution channels.

    同時,我們看到了一個重新調整分銷管道中精選款式供應的機會。

  • While that included tightening the supply in some cases, it also included expanding the supply of the hottest, most iconic Jordan styles on the Nike SNKRS App, which has fast become the leading destination for high heat footwear launches globally.

    雖然這包括在某些情況下收緊供應,但也包括在Nike SNKRS 應用程式上擴大最熱門、最具標誌性的Jordan 款式的供應,該應用程式已迅速成為全球熱門鞋類發布的主要目的地。

  • We also leveraged both Jordan and NIKE launches on the SNKRS App to create compelling new consumer experiences that merged digital and physical with our strategic retail partners, for example, through initiatives such as Shock Drop, SNKRS Pass and SNKRS Stash.

    我們也利用Jordan 和NIKE 在SNKRS 應用程式上發布的產品,創造引人注目的新消費者體驗,將數位和實體與我們的策略零售合作夥伴融合在一起,例如透過Shock Drop、SNKRS Pass 和SNKRS Stash等舉措。

  • Looking forward, we see tremendous opportunity to continue diversifying the Jordan Brand for women in performance and through apparel.

    展望未來,我們看到了繼續透過性能和服裝實現 Jordan 品牌女性多元化的巨大機會。

  • For the full year, North America's revenue declined 2% and EBIT was 7% lower.

    北美地區全年收入下降 2%,息稅前利潤下降 7%。

  • However, our Q4 results in North America reflect a reversal of trend and sustainable momentum going into fiscal year '19.

    然而,我們在北美的第四季度業績反映了進入 19 財年的趨勢和可持續勢頭的逆轉。

  • Moving to EMEA, where revenues grew 10% on a currency-neutral basis in Q4, driven by strong global growth -- driven by strong growth in Global Football, Sportswear and Running.

    轉向歐洲、中東和非洲地區,在全球強勁成長的推動下,第四季營收在貨幣中性的基礎上成長了 10%——全球足球、運動服裝和跑步領域的強勁成長。

  • Our apparel business is also particularly strong across Europe with Global Football apparel approaching triple-digit growth in Q4 fueled by high-energy national team collections associated with the World Cup.

    我們的服裝業務在整個歐洲也特別強勁,在與世界盃相關的高能量國家隊系列的推動下,全球足球服裝在第四季度接近三位數增長。

  • In footwear, Air Max continues to be the dominant platform in the region with the Air Max 270 becoming the #1 style across key European markets and Air Max Month in March propelling Sportswear to record full year revenues.

    在鞋類領域,Air Max 繼續成為該地區的主導平台,Air Max 270 成為歐洲主要市場的第一款式,3 月的 Air Max 月推動運動服創下全年收入紀錄。

  • The NIKE Brand is also #1 in all of our key cities across Europe, fueled by campaigns such as Nothing Beats a Londoner that amplified the authentic voice of over 200 London consumers, along with influencers such as Skepta and several of the world's greatest athletes, including Mo Farah, Harry Kane and others.

    在「Nothing Beats a Londoner」等活動的推動下,耐吉品牌在歐洲所有主要城市中也排名第一,這些活動放大了200 多名倫敦消費者的真實聲音,以及Skepta 等影響者和幾位世界上最偉大的運動員,包括莫·法拉赫、哈里·凱恩等人。

  • This is a great example of a hyperlocal city campaign that resonated with our consumers globally.

    這是超本地化城市活動的一個很好的例子,引起了全球消費者的共鳴。

  • While NIKE Direct continues to lead all dimensions of growth in EMEA, JD, for example, has also been a very strategic partner for NIKE.

    雖然 NIKE Direct 繼續引領歐洲、中東和非洲地區各方面的成長,但京東也一直是 NIKE 非常重要的戰略合作夥伴。

  • JD continues to leverage digital connections with consumers and differentiated store concepts, including size, to both create and serve demand, and we look forward to the best practices that they will bring to the North American marketplace.

    京東繼續利用與消費者的數位連接和差異化的商店概念(包括規模)來創造和服務需求,我們期待他們為北美市場帶來最佳實踐。

  • For the full year, currency-neutral revenue growth was 9%, fueled by double-digit growth in Sportswear and across apparel.

    全年,在運動服和其他服裝領域兩位數成長的推動下,剔除貨幣因素後的收入成長了 9%。

  • On a reported basis, fiscal year '18 revenues grew 16% and EBIT increased 5% as strong revenue growth was offset primarily by transactional FX headwinds on gross margin.

    根據報告,18 財年收入成長了 16%,息稅前利潤成長了 5%,因為強勁的營收成長主要被交易性外匯不利因素對毛利率的影響所抵銷。

  • So next, let's turn to Greater China.

    那麼接下來,讓我們轉向大中華區。

  • In Q4, Greater China's growth accelerated to 25% on a currency-neutral basis, including strong double-digit growth across all categories, the Jordan Brand and across our women's business.

    第四季度,在匯率中立的基礎上,大中華區的成長加速至 25%,包括所有品類、Jordan 品牌和整個女裝業務均實現強勁的兩位數成長。

  • NIKE Digital growth continues to outpace all other marketplace dimensions, and we continue to partner with and learn from China's leading digital platforms.

    耐吉數位化成長持續超過所有其他市場維度,我們繼續與中國領先的數位平台合作並向其學習。

  • Through our partnership with Tmall, our first ever Air Max Super Brand Day in March, became our largest day on the platform, second only to Singles' Day for the year.

    透過與天貓的合作,我們在 3 月的首個 Air Max 超級品牌日成為我們在平台上最大的一天,僅次於今年的光棍節。

  • And with Tencent, we launched our Choose Go campaign through digital media, inspiring 2 million runners to participate in a 7-week running journey and creating strong demand for the Epic React.

    我們也與騰訊合作,透過數位媒體發起了「Choose Go」活動,激勵了 200 萬跑者參與為期 7 週的跑步之旅,並為 Epic React 創造了強勁需求。

  • For the full year, revenues in Greater China increased 18% on a currency-neutral basis, driven by Running, Sportswear, the Jordan Brand and Nike Basketball.

    在跑步、運動服飾、喬丹品牌和耐吉籃球的推動下,大中華區全年收入在匯率中立的基礎上成長了 18%。

  • On a reported basis, fiscal year '18 revenues were up 21% and EBIT increased 20%.

    根據報告,18 財年收入成長了 21%,息稅前利潤成長了 20%。

  • There are several drivers of the extraordinary long-term growth potential we see in Greater China from favorable macroeconomics to the rise of sport and fitness, to the scale and impact of digital, to the strength of the NIKE Brand.

    我們認為大中華區具有非凡的長期成長潛力,有多個驅動因素,從有利的宏觀經濟到運動和健身的興起,到數位化的規模和影響,再到耐吉品牌的實力。

  • Accordingly, we will continue to invest to extend our leadership in this strategically important and fast-growing market.

    因此,我們將繼續投資,以擴大我們在這個具有重要戰略意義且快速成長的市場中的領導地位。

  • In APLA, Q4 revenue grew 13% on a currency-neutral basis.

    在 APLA,第四季營收在貨幣中性的基礎上成長了 13%。

  • Growth was strong across all key countries within this diverse geography and is being fueled by our focus on creating brand energy in key cities and through digital.

    在這個多元化的地理區域內,所有主要國家/地區的成長都很強勁,我們專注於在主要城市透過數位化創造品牌能量,這推動了成長。

  • In fact, while NIKE Digital growth was strong in every geography, APLA's digital growth led the pack.

    事實上,儘管 NIKE 數位化成長在每個地區都表現強勁,但 APLA 的數位化成長卻遙遙領先。

  • In addition to strong NIKE Direct digital growth, growth through new entrepreneurial digital partners also accelerated.

    除了強勁的 NIKE Direct 數位成長之外,新的創業數位合作夥伴也加速了成長。

  • Looking forward, we will continue to drive digital momentum by scaling the NIKE and SNKRS Apps across key countries within APLA while also continuing to explore and scale these digital partnerships.

    展望未來,我們將透過在 APLA 內的主要國家/地區擴展 NIKE 和 SNKRS 應用程序,繼續推動數位化勢頭,同時繼續探索和擴展這些數位合作夥伴關係。

  • For the full fiscal year, revenue increased 10% on a currency-neutral basis, fueled by balanced growth across all categories, including the Jordan Brand and our women's business.

    在整個財年,在包括 Jordan 品牌和我們的女裝業務在內的所有類別的平衡增長的推動下,收入在貨幣中性的基礎上增長了 10%。

    根據報告,本財年全年營收成長 9%,息稅前利潤成長 21%,反映了毛利率擴張和 SG&A 槓桿率。

  • And finally, at Converse, revenue declined 11% on a currency-neutral basis for fiscal year '18 and declined 14% in the fourth quarter.

    最後,Converse 在 18 財年的收入在貨幣中性的基礎上下降了 11%,在第四季度下降了 14%。

  • Contraction was primarily driven by the decision to rightsize wholesale distribution in North America and EMEA.

    收縮主要是由於調整北美和歐洲、中東和非洲批發分銷規模的決定。

  • At the same time, Converse Direct grew double digits in Q4, including strong double-digit growth in digital for the full year with acceleration in Q4.

    同時,Converse Direct 在第四季度實現了兩位數成長,其中數位業務全年強勁兩位數成長,且第四季度加速成長。

  • On a reported basis, full year revenues were down 8% and EBIT declined 35%.

    根據報告,全年收入下降 8%,息稅前利潤下降 35%。

  • As we move into fiscal year '19, we are reigniting energy in the Converse brand and diversifying Converse's product portfolio both through Converse's authentic positioning in sport and through new sportswear styles and collaborations.

    隨著進入 19 財年,我們正在重新點燃匡威品牌的活力,並透過匡威在運動領域的真實定位以及新的運動服款式和合作,使匡威的產品組合多樣化。

  • In fiscal year '19, Converse will also launch a more direct, branded and immersive digital experience to drive closer connections between the Converse brand and its passionate consumers.

    在 19 財年,匡威也將推出更直接、品牌化和身臨其境的數位體驗,以推動匡威品牌與其熱情的消費者之間建立更緊密的聯繫。

  • Fiscal year '19 will be the first full year of execution against NIKE's Consumer Direct Offense and the long-term financial goals that we detailed at our Investor Day.

    19 財年將是耐吉針對消費者直接進攻和我們在投資者日詳細說明的長期財務目標執行的第一個全年。

  • As we are now deeper into the execution of our new offense, it is becoming increasingly clear that digital is transforming how we operate and will favorably reshape our economic model over the long term.

    隨著我們現在更深入地執行我們的新舉措,越來越明顯的是,數位化正在改變我們的營運方式,並將從長遠來看有利地重塑我們的經濟模式。

  • Digital is inflecting our revenue growth and has a favorable mix impact on our gross margin as we capture more of the value that we are creating for consumers.

    數位化正在影響我們的收入成長,並對我們的毛利率產生有利的綜合影響,因為我們為消費者創造了更多的價值。

  • And as for SG&A, we will continue to accelerate investments in scalable digital experiences and capabilities, building both organically and through acquisitions.

    至於SG&A,我們將繼續加快對可擴展的數位體驗和能力的投資,透過有機建設和收購來實現。

  • At the same time, we're already seeing how upfront investment in experiences, like the NIKE and SNKRS Apps; and in capabilities, such as a data and analytics, can be efficiently leveraged globally to better serve our consumers across our key markets.

    同時,我們已經看到了對體驗的前期投資,例如 NIKE 和 SNKRS 應用程式;數據和分析等能力可以在全球範圍內有效利用,以更好地服務我們主要市場的消費者。

  • Finally, digital also creates the potential for win-win economic models with our wholesale partners over time as they transform their retail experiences to serve the next generation of digitally native consumers.

    最後,隨著時間的推移,隨著批發合作夥伴轉變零售體驗以服務下一代數位原生消費者,數位化也為我們的批發合作夥伴創造了雙贏經濟模式的潛力。

  • Taking all of these dynamics into account, we are updating our guidance for fiscal year '19.

    考慮到所有這些動態,我們正在更新 19 財年的指導。

  • As of our last earnings call, we expected mid- to high single-digit revenue growth in fiscal year '19.

    截至我們上次財報電話會議,我們預計 19 財年營收將達到中高個位數成長。

  • As we now close Q4, our expectations for revenue growth in fiscal year '19 have moved up slightly, entering the high single-digit range.

    隨著第四季的結束,我們對 19 財年營收成長的預期略有上升,進入高個位數範圍。

  • This improved outlook takes into account building consumer demand for NIKE.

    這一改善的前景考慮到消費者對耐吉的需求不斷增長。

  • However, we are also mindful of renewed FX volatility and the strengthening dollar of late.

    然而,我們也注意到外匯波動再次出現以及美元近期走強。

  • As for gross margin, we now expect expansion of roughly 50 basis points or slightly greater, fueled by strong full-price sales, expanding average selling prices and growth in our NIKE Direct businesses, partially offset by higher input costs.

    至於毛利率,我們現在預計將成長約 50 個基點或略高,這得益於強勁的全價銷售、平均售價的提高以及 NIKE Direct 業務的成長,但部分被較高的投入成本所抵消。

  • As for SG&A, we will continue to prioritize investments in new digital consumer experiences and capabilities, in product innovation and in brand marketing.

    至於SG&A,我們將繼續優先投資於新的數位消費者體驗和能力、產品創新和品牌行銷。

  • As such, in fiscal year '19, we expect SG&A to grow roughly in the same range as revenue growth.

    因此,在 19 財年,我們預期 SG&A 的成長幅度將與營收成長大致相同。

  • We're not targeting SG&A leverage in fiscal year '19.

    我們的目標不是 19 財年的 SG&A 槓桿。

  • We are capturing productivity gains within SG&A, but we will use that incremental capacity to invest strategically for the long term.

    我們正在 SG&A 中獲取生產力提升,但我們將利用增量能力進行長期策略投資。

  • As for other expense net of interest expense, we expect roughly $125 million to $150 million of expense for the full year.

    至於扣除利息費用後的其他費用,我們預計全年費用約為 1.25 億至 1.5 億美元。

  • We see our effective tax rate being in the mid-teens range or potentially slightly higher for the full year.

    我們認為全年的有效稅率在十幾歲左右或可能略高。

  • It's important to note that our tax rate will continue to be volatile based upon the full implementation and further guidance with respect to U.S. tax reform.

    值得注意的是,根據美國稅制改革的全面實施和進一步指導,我們的稅率將繼續波動。

  • Variation in our mix of earnings geographically will also have an impact as will the impact of stock-based compensation and other discrete items.

    我們的收入組合在地理上的差異也會產生影響,股票薪酬和其他離散項目的影響也會產生影響。

  • Our focus will remain on driving strategic transformation and delivering strong growth over the long term, more so than on the results in any individual quarter.

    我們的重點仍然是推動策略轉型並實現長期強勁成長,而不是任何單一季度的業績。

  • That said, for some additional context as we enter the fiscal year, we expect the same level of revenue growth in Q1 as we do for the full year.

    也就是說,在我們進入本財年時的一些額外背景下,我們預計第一季的營收成長水準與全年相同。

  • We also expect less gross margin expansion in the first half as compared to the second half of the year.

    我們也預計上半年毛利率成長率將低於下半年。

  • And finally, as for SG&A, our investments will be more front loaded towards the first half of the fiscal year, driven by key consumer and sports moments such as the World Cup.

    最後,就SG&A而言,在世界盃等關鍵消費者和體育賽事的推動下,我們的投資將在本財年上半年更加提前。

  • The Consumer Direct Offense is transforming how we operate at NIKE and how we will create value for shareholders going forward.

    消費者直接進攻正在改變我們在耐吉的運作方式以及我們未來為股東創造價值的方式。

  • More specifically, digital is proving to be as transformative as we expected and potentially even more so.

    更具體地說,事實證明,數位化的變革正如我們所預期的那樣,甚至可能更甚。

  • We still have much work to do ahead of us to realize the full potential of our new office -- offense.

    我們還有很多工作要做,才能充分發揮新辦公室的潛力——進攻。

  • That said, it is clear, as we accelerate in fiscal year '19, that we have now ignited NIKE's next horizon of strong, sustainable, profitable growth.

    也就是說,很明顯,隨著我們在 19 財年的加速發展,我們現在點燃了耐吉的下一個強勁、可持續、獲利成長的前景。

  • With that, we'll now open the call up for questions.

  • I guess, the question that I have is, on the North American market, you talk a lot about the sustainability of the growth in the U.S. Can you just, as you look for the -- throughout the next fiscal year, in terms of -- is it an expectation for like a low single-digit increase?

    我想,我的問題是,在北美市場,你們談論了很多關於美國成長的可持續性的問題,當你們尋找——整個下一個財政年度時,你們能否—— - 是否預期會有低個位數的成長?

  • Is it expected to accelerate based on what you're seeing?

    根據您所看到的情況,預計會加速嗎?

  • I was wondering if you can just comment a little bit more around the outlook in the North American market.

    我想知道您是否可以對北美市場的前景進行更多評論。

  • Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

    Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • We do see sustainable momentum in North America.

    我們確實看到了北美的永續發展動能。

  • As you know, our Investor Day guidance for North America was that we believed it was a mid-single-digit growth market over the next 5 years.

    如您所知,我們對北美投資者日的指導是,我們相信未來 5 年北美市場將實現中等個位數成長。

  • And so we don't typically provide geographical specific guidance certainly by quarter or for the full year.

    因此,我們通常不會按季度或全年提供特定地區的指導。

  • But I would say that we have momentum going into the year, and that's really primarily fueled by new innovation platforms that we're scaling; NIKE Direct; certainly NIKE Digital, which accelerated to well over 30% growth driven by strong results on SNKRS and through membership.

    但我想說的是,今年我們有動力,這實際上主要是由我們正在擴展的新創新平台推動的;耐吉直銷;當然,NIKE Digital 的成長速度遠超 30%,這得益於 SNKRS 的強勁業績和會員資格。

  • And then I'd note that, importantly, we've returned North America to a healthy pull market.

    然後我要指出的是,重要的是,我們已經使北美恢復了健康的拉動市場。

  • Inventory is clean, up only 2%.

    庫存乾淨,僅上漲 2%。

  • Full-price sales are accelerating.

    全價銷售正在加速。

  • Off-price sales are declining, and gross margins are expanding.

    折扣銷售正在下降,毛利率正在擴大。

  • So we do see a strong momentum, sustainable momentum going into fiscal year '19, but we aren't providing specific guidance by line item by geography.

    因此,我們確實看到了進入 19 財年的強勁勢頭、可持續勢頭,但我們沒有按地區按行項目提供具體指導。

    但我很好奇,您現在能提醒我們,您又回到了拉動模型嗎?以美元計算,該業務有多大?

  • And could you also maybe walk us through impact of the retro versus the marquee business and if there's been any significant change in the pricing structure within Jordan?

    Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

  • From a pricing perspective, I'd say that the leading indicator in terms of the strength of the Jordan Brand is that we're seeing strong full price sell-through.

    從定價的角度來看,我想說,喬丹品牌實力的領先指標是我們看到強勁的全價銷售。

  • In fact, it might be an understatement to say that our inventories are clean in North America, and that was not a result of adjusting prices.

    事實上,說我們北美的庫存是乾淨的可能是輕描淡寫的,這並不是調整價格的結果。

  • That was entirely about rightsizing supply and within distribution channels.

    這完全是關於調整供應和分銷管道的規模。

  • And what we've seen is that certainly with respect to the hottest styles and the most iconic styles, we've had extraordinary demand, again, demand that outpaced the supply that we had planned, particularly with respect to our digital experiences like the SNKRS App.

    And what we've seen is that certainly with respect to the hottest styles and the most iconic styles, we've had extraordinary demand, again, demand that outpaced the supply that we had planned, particularly with respect to our digital experiences like the SNKRS應用程式.

    但是,您能否從獲利角度談談您如何看待隨著業務規模擴大而帶來的最終機會?

  • And then the second part would be, you mentioned Tmall is, I think, really setting the bar in terms of your digital partners.

  • You didn't talk about Amazon.

    你沒有談論亞馬遜。

  • Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

    Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • I will -- I'll start with your question around the impact of digital.

    我將從你關於數字影響的問題開始。

  • It's a great question and a timely question.

    這是一個很好的問題,也是一個及時的問題。

  • As we -- as both Mark and I detailed, we saw acceleration in digital that, quite frankly, exceeded even our own expectations.

    正如馬克和我所詳述的那樣,我們看到了數位化的加速發展,坦白說,甚至超出了我們自己的預期。

  • It wasn't by accident.

    這並非偶然。

  • We've certainly been investing both organically in digital experiences, such as some of the experiences we've shared with respect to our membership initiatives as well as in capabilities.

    我們當然一直在對數位體驗進行有機投資,例如我們在會員計劃和能力方面分享的一些經驗。

  • You've heard us refer to our acquisitions of Virgin Mega, Invertex and Zodiac over time.

    您已經聽我們提到我們長期以來對 Virgin Mega、Invertex 和 Zodiac 的收購。

  • And so that acceleration is definitely a result of the investment.

    因此,這種加速肯定是投資的結果。

  • In terms of our evolving view of the impact of digital on our economic model or how we create value for shareholders, we do see digital being a platform that helps us better optimize supply and demand.

    就我們對數位化對我們經濟模式的影響或我們如何為股東創造價值的不斷變化的看法而言,我們確實認為數位化是一個幫助我們更好地優化供需的平台。

  • We obviously get a very direct read and signals from consumers in terms of which products they are most interested in, and that ultimately helps us amplify revenue growth through full-price sales.

    顯然,我們可以非常直接地了解消費者對哪些產品最感興趣的資訊和訊號,這最終有助於我們透過全價銷售擴大收入成長。

  • When we're leveraging digital in a more direct way, we obviously capture more of that revenue at the retail price.

    當我們以更直接的方式利用數位化時,我們顯然會以零售價獲得更多收入。

  • When we are leveraging digital with our partners, we do see a benefit from full-price sales and a win-win relationship with our partners.

    當我們與合作夥伴一起利用數位化技術時,我們確實看到了全價銷售以及與合作夥伴建立雙贏關係的好處。

  • Digital commerce also has margins that are favorable from a mix perspective relative to our traditional wholesale bricks-and-mortar business.

    從混合角度來看,相對於我們傳統的實體批發業務,數位商務的利潤率也很有利。

  • From an SG&A perspective, I would suggest there are 2 ways to look at it.

    從 SG&A 的角度來看,我建議有兩種方式來看待它。

  • One is short, medium and long term, and then the other one is specifically more in the shorter term.

    一個是短期、中期和長期,然後另一個是具體更短的。

  • I think short, medium and long term, what we're finding is that the capabilities or experiences we're building in digital are very scalable, and they're scalable in an efficient way.

    我認為從短期、中期和長期來看,我們發現我們在數位領域建立的能力或體驗是非常可擴展的,並且可以有效地擴展。

  • You think about creating experiences around the SNKRS or NIKE Apps, and to the extent we have success in the market where we launch that, we're then able to take that investment we've already made and leverage it in markets around the world.

    您考慮圍繞 SNKRS 或 NIKE 應用程式創建體驗,只要我們在推出該應用程式的市場上取得成功,我們就能夠利用我們已經進行的投資並在世界各地的市場中利用它。

  • And we're certainly seeing that, for example, with the SNKRS App, which is #1 in Japan in terms of free applications.

    我們確實看到了這一點,例如 SNKRS 應用程序,該應用程式在日本的免費應用程式方面排名第一。

  • We've seen millions of downloads of that app since launch in China, leveraging a lot of that upfront initial investment.

    自從在中國推出以來,我們已經看到該應用程式的下載量達到了數百萬次,充分利用了大量的前期初始投資。

  • So we think it's a source of leverage, at the same time, because we're focused on the long term and we do think digital has the ability to really inflect our value creation, we're accelerating the investments that we're making in digital now to accelerate us down that path.

    因此,我們認為這是槓桿的來源,同時,因為我們著眼於長期,我們確實認為數位化有能力真正影響我們的價值創造,我們正在加速我們在以下方面的投資現在數位化將加速我們沿著這條道路前進。

  • Mark G. Parker - Chairman, President & CEO

  • We're learning a lot and applying.

    我們正在學習並應用很多東西。

    我們確實在準備好的發言中提到了這種夥伴關係。

  • Tmall has been an exceptional partner for us.

    天貓一直是我們優秀的合作夥伴。

  • I think the main focus is on elevating the brand profile and experience on the platform, and that'll continue to be the focus as we explore next steps with Amazon.

    我認為主要重點是提昇平台上的品牌形象和體驗,這將繼續成為我們與亞馬遜探索下一步行動的重點。

  • And I'll call out our other digital platform partners, too, Zalando and ASOS and some of the others I mentioned earlier, that this is a critical part of our digital opportunity going forward beyond what we're doing direct.

    坦白說,我們透過 SNKRS 應用程式創造的需求遠遠超出了我們的預期,而且無論是男性還是女性的需求都如此之快。

  • This is, and I mentioned this before, but one of the biggest upside opportunities, I think, we have over the course of fiscal '19 and beyond.

    我之前也提到過,這是我們在 19 財年及以後所擁有的最大的上行機會之一。

  • The response has been phenomenal, and it's truly an area that we're excited about catching up, meaning, end to end, being in a position to serve that incredible increase in demand that we got from sneakers and the whole sneaker culture, which is now a global and connected community that is creating, again, incredible buzz around the world and incredible demand.

    反響是驚人的,這確實是一個我們很高興能趕上的領域,也就是說,端到端,能夠滿足我們從運動鞋和整個運動鞋文化中獲得的令人難以置信的需求增長,這是現在,一個全球性的互聯社群再次在世界各地引起了令人難以置信的轟動和令人難以置信的需求。

  • I mean, this is a constantly moving opportunity for us, design and product creation and the Express Lane, the supply chain.

    我的意思是,這對我們、設計和產品創造以及快速通道、供應鏈來說是一個不斷變化的機會。

  • They're all connecting digitally.

    他們都以數位方式連接。

  • Predictive demand planning and sensing and demand planning is absolutely a critical part of advancing this capability moving forward.

  • I feel like we're making tremendous product -- or progress in that respect.

    我覺得我們正在創造巨大的產品——或者說在這方面取得了進展。

  • I think this next fiscal year will be an acceleration of the use of data to inform product design and capabilities going forward.

    我認為下一個財年將加速使用數據來為未來的產品設計和功能提供資訊。

  • And then it's actually impacting how we do our -- manage our supply chain and our manufacturing flexibility and response time.

    然後它實際上影響我們如何管理我們的供應鏈以及我們的製造靈活性和回應時間。

  • So I think you'll see a lot of scaling of the data and analytics capabilities for NIKE here in the months and quarters ahead.

  • Mark G. Parker - Chairman, President & CEO

    Mark G. Parker - Chairman, President & CEO

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • I think the underlying health of the business for NIKE in Europe is actually quite strong beyond what we're seeing in the World Cup, and again, I think that's both in footwear and apparel.

    我認為耐吉在歐洲業務的潛在健康狀況實際上比我們在世界盃上看到的要強,而且我認為這在鞋類和服裝領域都是如此。

  • Similarly, to the North America, we have a clean marketplace.

    同樣,對於北美,我們有一個乾淨的市場。

  • We're seeing growing full-price sales.

    我們看到全價銷售不斷成長。

  • We're outpacing the marketplace overall.

    我們總體上超過了市場。

  • It's the same dynamics.

    這是相同的動態。

  • New product innovation is resonating, especially in the -- some of the key styles we mentioned like the Air Max franchise, the Air Max 270, the VaporMax.

    新產品創新引起了共鳴,尤其是我們提到的一些關鍵款式,例如 Air Max 系列、Air Max 270、VaporMax。

  • We're editing our product mix.

    我們正在編輯我們的產品組合。

  • We're creating more choice but focusing on key products, and that's really helping to drive our strength in the marketplace.

    我們正在創造更多選擇,但專注於關鍵產品,這確實有助於增強我們在市場上的實力。

  • I think the focus, too, on the key cities with hyperlocal products, and a lot of it's fueled by our Express Lane, is really clicking into gear in Europe.

    我認為,對擁有超本地化產品的主要城市的關注,其中許多是由我們的快捷通道推動的,在歐洲確實正在發揮作用。

  • So we are overindexing in Europe.

    因此,我們在歐洲的指數過高。

  • And again, beyond the World Cup, we expect that to continue.

    同樣,在世界盃之後,我們預計這種情況將繼續下去。

  • And Andy, for you, just you outperformed Q4 on the gross margin.

    安迪,對你來說,只是你的毛利率超過了第四季。

  • You guided to roughly 50 basis points for fiscal year '19, but it seems like some of the drivers are accelerating around product, favorable channel mix, and I believe also FX starts to become an incremental tailwind here.

    您為 19 財年設定了大約 50 個基點,但似乎一些驅動因素正在圍繞產品、有利的通路組合加速成長,我相信外匯也開始成為這裡的增量推動力。

  • Can you maybe just walk through what other pieces we might be missing that go into that gross margin?

    您能否簡單介紹一下我們可能遺漏的其他部分,這些部分會影響毛利率?

  • I think you threw out product cost.

    我認為你拋棄了產品成本。

  • But any color around that would be helpful.

    但周圍的任何顏色都會有幫助。

  • Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

    Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • Well, as I said, we see strong gross margin expansion in fiscal year '19.

    嗯,正如我所說,我們看到 19 財年的毛利率強勁增長。

  • You know that our long-term financial model is to deliver as much as 50 basis points of expansion, and we have updated that outlook to be 50 basis points or slightly greater.

    您知道,我們的長期財務模型是實現多達 50 個基點的擴張,我們將這一前景更新為 50 個基點或略高。

  • That's led by stronger full-price selling as well as over indexing growth in our higher-margin NIKE Direct businesses.

    這是由更強勁的全價銷售以及我們利潤率較高的 NIKE Direct 業務的超指數增長所帶動的。

  • While FX headwinds are now behind us, we're not forecasting significant FX tailwinds based on current rates.

    雖然外匯逆風現在已成為過去,但根據當前匯率,我們預計不會出現重大的外匯順風。

  • And based on FX volatility being renewed of late, we're being measured in that regard even as we look out to the second half of the year.

    根據最近更新的外匯波動性,即使我們展望今年下半年,我們也在這方面進行衡量。

  • We are forecasting, as you noted, a bit of pressure on gross margin from select input cost headwinds within labor, oil, freight, materials.

    正如您所指出的,我們預測,勞動力、石油、貨運、材料等領域的特定投入成本逆風將給毛利率帶來一些壓力。

  • And then I should note that our margins -- within our margins, different than many of our peers, we capture a significant portion of our supply chain cost, where some of our peers capture those costs in SG&A.

    然後我應該指出,我們的利潤率——在我們的利潤率範圍內,與許多同行不同的是,我們佔據了供應鏈成本的很大一部分,而我們的一些同行則在SG&A中佔據了這些成本。

  • And so as we're investing to 2X Speed, we do have some investments in revolutionizing manufacturing and other initiatives that are in that line item of our P&L.

    因此,當我們以 2 倍的速度進行投資時,我們確實對製造業的革命性投資以及損益表中該行項目中的其他舉措進行了一些投資。

  • Andy, I wanted to follow up on something that you said in your remarks.

    安迪,我想跟進您在演講中所說的內容。

  • You said supply was only a fraction of the demand, and that sounds like a pretty good problem to have.

    你說供應只是需求的一小部分,這聽起來是一個很好的問題。

  • But I was wondering, in the context of 2X Speed, as you were just saying, how do we think about optimizing the total value or the total projected value of a new shoe or a new sneaker in a world where you have 2X Speed and consumer demand is changing at a accelerating rate.

    但我想知道,在 2X Speed 的背景下,正如您剛才所說,在擁有 2X Speed 和消費者的世界中,我們如何考慮優化新鞋或新運動鞋的總價值或總預期價值需求正在加速變化。

  • Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

    Andrew Campion - Executive VP & CFO

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • As you put it, I think you said it was a nice problem to have.

    正如你所說,我認為你說這是一個很好的問題。

  • We see it as a great opportunity to really serve the consumers who have extraordinary demand for that product better.

    我們認為這是一個很好的機會,可以真正更好地服務對該產品有特殊需求的消費者。

  • So frankly, along the lines of the notion of 2X Speed, we're attacking that opportunity with a lot of urgency not just because it is a revenue upside potential driver, which it certainly is.

    坦白說,以 2 倍速度的概念,我們非常緊迫地抓住這個機會,不僅僅是因為它是收入成長的潛在驅動力,而事實確實如此。

  • As I said, the supply that we had against some of the demand we saw on some of the hottest styles was, as I said, but a fraction of that demand.

    正如我所說,正如我所說,我們所看到的一些最熱門款式的供應量只是該需求的一小部分。

  • We also see it as a great opportunity to both serve in terms of the product they want but also connect in a deeper way with those passionate consumers, many call them sneakerheads, who have chosen to connect with us as members on the NIKE App and SNKRS.

    我們也認為這是一個很好的機會,既可以為他們想要的產品提供服務,又可以與那些熱情的消費者進行更深入的聯繫,許多人稱他們為運動鞋迷,他們選擇以NIKE 應用程序和SNKRS 的會員資格與我們聯繫。

  • In terms of 2X Speed, I think maybe even elevating, as Mark said, the digital transformation at NIKE is really an end-to-end notion.

    就 2X 速度而言,我認為甚至可能會提升,正如馬克所說,耐吉的數位轉型實際上是一個端到端的概念。

  • And when we think about demand sensing, the greatest opportunity we have is to sense the demand and even in a more nuanced way, the signals and the preferences from the consumers that we're connecting with directly on SNKRS.

    當我們考慮需求感知時,我們擁有的最大機會就是感知需求,甚至以更細緻的方式感知我們在 SNKRS 上直接聯繫的消費者的訊號和偏好。

  • We use things like notify me initiatives, draws, preorders, and we're coming up increasingly with even more creative ways to get a sense for how robust the demand is, either for specific products or for types of products that we may be planning to bring to market.

    我們使用通知我計劃、抽獎、預購等方式,並且我們越來越多地提出更具創意的方法來了解需求的強勁程度,無論是針對特定產品還是針對我們可能計劃的產品類型推向市場。
