On this news, Nike’s stock price fell $7.72, or 7%, to close at $102.78 per share on June 28, 2022, thereby injuring investors.
Then, on September 29, 2022, Nike released its first quarter 2023 financial results, reporting a net income decline of 22% year-over-year and diluted earnings per share decline of 20% year-over-year.

On this news, Nike’s stock price fell $12.21, or 12.8%, to close at $83.12 per share on September 30, 2022.
Then, on December 21, 2023, Nike released its second quarter 2024 financial results and stated that “total retail sales across the marketplace fell short of [the Company’s] expectations,” and that Nike’s digital platforms lost consumer traffic to competitors because of “higher promotional activity across the marketplace.” On this news, Nike’s stock price fell $14.49, or 11.8%, to close at $108.04 per share on December 22, 2023.
