Nike announces layoffs as part of restructuring plan

Nike said the overhaul will cut jobs and reorganize its global business as weak sales in China and other units pressure growth.

  • On Thursday, Nike CEO Elliott Hill announced 'Pace,' a restructuring program that consolidates geographic regions into three divisions and establishes a new campus in Bengaluru, India, targeting $2.5 billion in savings through fiscal 2031.
  • The initiative follows a challenging fiscal first quarter where revenue fell 4% to $11.2 billion, with Greater China sales declining 26% and prompting investor concerns about Nike's long-term growth prospects.
  • Nike expects $1 billion in pretax charges and $300 million in severance costs, with decisions about affected roles beginning in 2027 as the company streamlines operations to improve efficiency.
  • Following the earnings report, Nike shares fell to their lowest level in 13 years, as Hill acknowledged that reviving the Jordan brand and other weak areas will require time and deliberate action.
  • Nike leadership will detail efficiency plans and financial outlook at an investor event on November 16-17, marking a critical milestone to address shareholder concerns about the turnaround's pace and long-term strategy.
