Nike today reported financial results for its first quarter, which ended August 31, 2018, revealing that revenues for Nike Inc. increased 10% to $9.9 billion. Additionally, Nike reports that revenues for Converse were $527 million, up 7% on a currency-neutral basis, mainly driven by growth in Europe and Asia.

Our expanded digital capabilities are accelerating our complete portfolio and creating value across all dimensions as we connect with and serve consumers.”

Andy Campion, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NIKE, Inc. adds, “We are delivering stronger global growth and profitability than we anticipated entering this fiscal year.
