Revenues for the NIKE Brand were $12.1 billion, down 1 percent on a reported basis and up 1 percent on a currency-neutral basis, with currency-neutral growth in Greater China, APLA and EMEA, partially offset by a decline in North America.

Gross margin increased 110 basis points to 44.7 percent, primarily due to strategic pricing actions, lower ocean freight rates and logistics costs, and lower warehousing, partially offset by lower margin in NIKE Direct and unfavorable changes in net foreign currency exchange rates.
Selling and administrative expense decreased 7 percent to $4.1 billion.

The effective tax rate was 13.1 percent compared to 17.3 percent for the same period last year, due to changes in earnings mix, partially offset by decreased benefits from stock-based compensation.
