## Nike, Inc. (NKE) — Research Snapshot as of 2026-09-19

**Context on the fiscal calendar:** Nike's fiscal year ends May 31. Its most recent report, Q4 FY2026 (quarter ended May 31, 2026), was released after the close on June 30, 2026. The most recent daily share price is ~$35.56 (close on 09/18/2026) [[12]](https://www.marketbeat.com/earnings/reports/2026-6-30-nike-inc-stock/), which is below the ~$38.40 referenced earlier in the year [[5]](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/nike-price-forecast-nke-recover-235311613.html). Cross-checking share counts (~1.48–1.49B) is consistent with both the ~$53.08B market cap on file (09/17) and the ~$56.97B cited in [[5]](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/nike-price-forecast-nke-recover-235311613.html) (at the higher price); the gap is a date/price difference, not a structural one [[5]](https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/nike-price-forecast-nke-recover-235311613.html). Trailing P/E is ~17x [[11]](https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/NKE/earnings/)[[12]](https://www.marketbeat.com/earnings/reports/2026-6-30-nike-inc-stock/). The following is not investment advice.
