Nike's stock has been performing poorly over the past 5 years, with a 52% decline. The presenter attributes this primarily to the decisions made by former CEO John Donahoe, who took over in early 2020. Donahoe's strategy focused heavily on a direct-to-consumer (DTC) approach, aiming to increase margins by selling directly through Nike's app and website, reducing reliance on retailers.
This strategy, according to the presenter, was a mistake because it alienated important retail partners like Foot Locker. As these retailers faced survival challenges, they began promoting competing brands, strengthening Nike's rivals. Furthermore, not all consumers prefer buying directly through an app, and the presenter believes this DTC-only approach limited Nike's reach and sales.
The good news, according to the presenter, is that this strategy is being reversed. Elliot Hill, who has a deep background in building Nike into the powerhouse it is today, has returned and is now leading the company. The presenter believes Hill was overlooked for the CEO position previously and is now implementing changes to fix the issues caused by the previous strategy. This includes rebuilding relationships with retailers and focusing on the core business.
Early signs of this turnaround are already visible, with Nike's revenues shifting from negative growth to slight positive growth quarter-over-quarter. The presenter expects Nike to return to consistent revenue growth, likely in the 5-15% range annually, without needing hyper-growth rates. The focus will be on improving margins, increasing earnings per share, and regaining the trust of the Wall Street community and institutional investors. The presenter believes that buying Nike now is akin to buying at 2015 pricing, with the turnaround already in progress.
