Summary of Significant Accounti

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:	NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Basis of presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period.The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of May31, 2009 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP).The interim financial information and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Companys latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.The results of operations for the three and nine months ended February28, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards: In February 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued amended guidance on subsequent events. Under this amended guidance, SEC filers are no longer required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in originally issued and revised financial statements. This guidance was effective immediately and the Company adopted these new requirements for the period ended February28, 2010. In June 2009, the FASB established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) as the single source of authoritative USGAAP for all non-governmental entities. The Codification, which launched July1, 2009, changes the referencing and organization of accounting guidance. The Codification became effective for the Company beginning September1, 2009. The issuance of FASB Codification did not change GAAP and therefore the adoption has only affected how specific references to GAAP literature are disclosed in the notes to the Companys consolidated financial statements. In April 2009, the FASB updated guidance related to fair-value measurements to clarify the guidance related to measuring fair-value in inactive markets, to modify the recognition and measurement of other-than-temporary impairments of debt securities, and to require public companies to disclose the fair values of financial instruments in interim periods. This updated guidance became effective for the Company beginning June1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations. See Note 5 - Fair Value Measurements for the disclosure required under the updated guidance. In June 2008, the FASB issued new accounting guidance applicable when determining whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities. This guidance clarifies that share-based payment awards that entitle their holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends before vesting should be considered participating securities and included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.This guidance became effective for the Company beginning June1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company

Fair Value Measurements:

Fair Value Measurements:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Fair Value Measurements:	NOTE 5 - Fair Value Measurements: The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including derivatives and available-for-sale securities. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.As a basis for considering such assumptions, the Company uses a three-level hierarchy established by the FASB which prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach, and cost approach). The levels of hierarchy are described below: Level 1:Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2:Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3:Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The Companys assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the most stringent level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table presents information about the Companys financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of February28, 2010 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

Income Taxes:

Income Taxes:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Income Taxes:	NOTE 6 - Income Taxes: The effective tax rate was 24.5% and 22.1% for the nine months ended February28, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Companys effective tax rate for the nine months ended February28, 2009 includes a tax benefit related to the impairment of Umbros goodwill, intangible and other assets. Excluding the tax benefit of the impairment charges in the prior year period, our fiscal year 2010 tax rate would have been 1.4 percentage points lower compared to fiscal 2009. This comparable decrease in fiscal 2010 was due to ongoing reduction in the effective tax rate on operations outside of the United States. As of February28, 2010, total gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding related interest and penalties, were $251.7 million, $153.1 million of which would affect the Companys effective tax rate if recognized in future periods. Total gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, as of May31, 2009 were $273.9 million, $110.6 million of which would affect the Companys effective tax rate if recognized in future periods.The gross liability for payment of interest and penalties decreased $0.9million during the nine months ended February28, 2010.As of February28, 2010, accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were $74.5 million (excluding federal benefit). The Company is subject to taxation primarily in the U.S., China and the Netherlands as well as various state and other foreign jurisdictions. The Company has concluded substantially all U.S. federal income tax matters through fiscal year 2006. The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2007, 2008 and 2009 tax years. The Companys major foreign jurisdictions, China and the Netherlands, have concluded substantially all income tax matters through calendar 1998 and fiscal 2002, respectively. It is reasonably possible that the Internal Revenue Service audits for the 2007, 2008 and 2009 tax years will be completed during the next twelve months, which could result in a decrease in our balance of unrecognized tax benefits.An estimate of the range cannot be made at this time; however, we do not anticipate that total gross unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly as a result of full or partial settlement of audits within the next 12 months.

These revisions affected certain balances reported in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of February28, 2009. As of and for the nine month period ended February28, 2009, these revisions resulted in an increase in other comprehensive income of $346.0 million, an increase in long-term deferred tax assets of $372.0 million and an increase in long-term deferred tax liabilities of $26.0 million. For the three month period ended February28, 2009, these revisions resulted in an increase in other comprehensive income of $58.0 million, an increase in long-term deferred tax assets of $197.0 million and an increase in long-term deferred tax liabilities of $139.0 million. These revisions did not affect the Companys previously reported results of operations and the Company has concluded that these revisions were not material to the financial position for the quarter ended February28, 2009 or any other subsequent period. In addition, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. These changes had no impact on previously reported total comprehensive income.

Stock-Based Compensation:

Stock-Based Compensation:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Stock-Based Compensation:	NOTE 8 - Stock-Based Compensation: A committee of the Board of Directors grants stock options and restricted stock under the NIKE, Inc. 1990 Stock Incentive Plan (the 1990 Plan). The committee has granted substantially all stock options at 100% of the market price on the date of grant. Substantially all stock option grants outstanding under the 1990 Plan were granted in the first quarter of each fiscal year, vest ratably over four years, and expire 10 years from the date of grant.In addition to the 1990 Plan, the Company gives employees the right to purchase shares at a discount to the market price under employee stock purchase plans (ESPPs). The Company accounts for stock-based compensation by estimating the fair value of options granted under the 1990 Plan and employees purchase rights under the ESPPs using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.The Company recognizes this fair value as selling and administrative expense over the vesting period using the straight-line method. The following table summarizes the Companys total stock-based compensation expense: ThreeMonthsEnded February28, NineMonthsEnded February28, 2010 2009 2010 2009 (in millions) Stock Options(1) $ 16.4 $ 18.6 $ 117.7 $ 110.4 ESPPs 3.7 3.2 11.9 10.8 Restricted Stock 2.9 1.9 7.9 5.8 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 23.0 $ 23.7 $ 137.5 $ 127.0 (1) Accelerated stock option expense is recorded for employees eligible for accelerated stock option vesting upon retirement.Accelerated stock option expense was $1.2 million and $1.0 million for thethree months ended February28, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and was $73.2 million and $57.7 million for the nine months ended February28, 2010 and 2009 respectively. As of February28, 2010, the Company had $102.3 million of unrecognized compensation costs from stock options, net of estimated forfeitures, to be recognized as selling and administrative expense over a weighted average period of 2.4 years. The weighted average fair value per share of the options granted during the nine months ended February28, 2010 and 2009 as computed using the Black-Scholes pricing model was $23.42 and $17.13, respectively.The weighted average assumptions used to estimate these fair values are as follows: NineMonthsEnded February28, 2010 2009 Dividend yield 1.9 % 1.5 % Expected volatility 57.8 % 32.5 % Weighted-average expected life (in years) 5.0 5.0 Risk-free interest rate 2.5 % 3.4 % Expected volatility is estimated based on the implied volatility in market traded options on the Companys common stock with a term greater than one year, along with other factors. The weighted average expected life of options is based on an analysis of historical and expected future exercise patterns.The interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury (constant maturity) risk-free rate in effect at the date of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of the options.

Restructuring Activities:

Restructuring Activities:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Restructuring Activities:	NOTE 10 - Restructuring Activities: During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company took necessary steps to streamline its management structure, enhance consumer focus, drive innovation more quickly to market and establish a more scalable, long-term cost structure. As a result, the Company reduced its global workforce by approximately 5% and incurred gross restructuring charges of $195 million, primarily consisting of severance costs related to the workforce reduction. As nearly all of the restructuring activities were completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company does not expect to recognize additional costs in future periods relating to these actions. The activity in the restructuring accrual for the nine month period ended February28, 2010 is as follows (in millions): Restructuring accrual - May31, 2009 $ 149.6 Cash payments (138.4 ) Foreign currency translation and other 1.5 Restructuring accrual - February 28, 2010 $ 12.7 The accrual balance as of February28, 2010 will be relieved throughout the remainder of fiscal year 2010 and early 2011, as severance payments are completed. The restructuring accrual is included in the balance of accrued liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Risk Management and Derivatives

Risk Management and Derivatives:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Risk Management and Derivatives:	NOTE 11 - Risk Management and Derivatives: The Company is exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and uses derivatives to manage financial exposures that occur in the normal course of business. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives to either specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Company also enters into foreign exchange forwards to mitigate the change in fair value of specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, which are not designated as hedging instruments under the accounting standards for derivatives and hedging. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of hedges of recorded balance sheet positions are recognized immediately in other income, net, on the income statement together with the transaction gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position. The majority of derivatives outstanding as of February28, 2010 are designated as either cash flow, fair value or net investment hedges. All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value and classified based on the instruments maturity date. The total notional amount of outstanding derivatives as of February28, 2010 was $6.2 billion, which is primarily comprised of cash flow hedges denominated in Euros, British Pounds and Japanese Yen. The following table presents the fair values of derivative instruments included within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February28, 2010 and the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May31, 2009: Asset Derivatives Liability Derivatives Balance Sheet Location February28, 2010 May31, 2009 Balance Sheet Location February28, 2010 May31, 2009 (in millions) Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: Foreign exchange forwards and options Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 256.4 $ 270.4 Accrued liabilities $ 20.4 $ Interest rate swap contracts Prepaid expenses and other current assets 0.1 Accrued liabilities Foreign exchange forwards and options Deferred income taxes and other long term assets 15.1 81.3 Deferred income taxes and other long term liabilities 0.8 34.6 Interest rate swap contracts Deferred income taxes and other long term assets 13.8 13.7 Deferred income taxes and other long term liabilities Total derivatives designated as hedging instruments 285.3 365.5 21.2 34.6 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: Foreign exchange forwards and options Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 15.6 12.8 Accrued liabilities $ 23.0 $ 34.3 Foreign exchange forward

Operating Segments:
	9 Months Ended Feb. 28, 2010
Operating Segments:	NOTE 12 - Operating Segments: The Companys operating segments are evidence of the structure of the Companys internal organization. The major segments are defined by geographic regions for operations participating in NIKE Brand sales activity excluding NIKE Golf. Each NIKE Brand geographic segment operates predominantly in one industry: the design, production, marketing and selling of sports and fitness footwear, apparel, and equipment. In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company initiated a reorganization of the NIKE Brand into a new model consisting of six geographies.Effective June1, 2009, the Companys new reportable operating segments for the NIKE Brand are: North America, Western Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, Greater China, Japan, and Emerging Markets. Previously, NIKE Brand operations were organized into the following four geographic regions: U.S., Europe, Middle East and Africa (collectively, EMEA), Asia Pacific, and Americas. The Companys Other category is broken into two components for presentation purposes to align with the way management views the Company. The Global Brand Divisions category primarily represents NIKE Brand licensing businesses that are not part of a geographic operating segment, selling, general and administrative expenses that are centrally managed for the NIKE Brand and costs associated with product development and supply chain operations.
