    Company: NIKE, Inc (NKE) Nielsen Fields, CFA Action: Long w/ a May-2022 Price Target of ~$90 [email protected] IRR: 12% over 5 Years April 25, 2017 Executive Summary NIKE, Inc is a BUY given that I expect business value to compound annually in the low teens through early 2022. Shares at ~$56 allow the long-term investor to pay slightly below fair value for the world leader in athletic footwear and apparel, and at just 25% of the footwear and 5% of the apparel global market, NIKE’s competitive advantages in local economies of scale – on a product by product and geographic basis – in advertising and sponsorship will allow the company to grow earnings at a low double digit rate. My base case valuation has NIKE valued at ~$90 in five years – $65 today at an 8% discount rate – representinG an 11% annualized return includinG dividends. Not setting the world on fire however the risk/reward is attractive given you do not lose much in my bear case of $43 yet would double your money in my bull case of $120; a case still more conservative than what management outlined at their 2015 analyst day. 2006A 2007A 2008A 2009A 2010A 2011A 2012A 2013A 2014A 2015A 2016A SUMMARY INFORMATION (Figures in millions, FYE 5/31) Key Items: NKE Summary Financials: Current Price $55.9 Revenue 18,627 19,176 19,014 20,117 23,331 25,313 27,799 30,601 32,376 Shares Out 1,654 Growth 14.1% 2.9% (0.8%) 5.8% 16.0% 8.5% 9.8% 10.1% 5.8% Market Cap $92,388 Gross Profit 8,387 8,604 8,800 9,202 10,148 11,034 12,446 14,067 14,971 - Cash (6,160.0) Gross Margin 45.0% 44.9%

  • The Mediating Role of Consumer Satisfaction in the Relationship Between Brand Equity and Brand Loyalty Based on PLS-SEM Model
    International Business Research; Vol. 8, No. 2; 2015 ISSN 1913-9004 E-ISSN 1913-9012 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education The Mediating Role of Consumer Satisfaction in the Relationship between Brand Equity and Brand Loyalty based on PLS-SEM Model Shen Lei1 & Luo Chu1 1 Glorious Sun School of Business and Management, Donghua University, Shanghai, P.R.C Correspondence: Luo Chu, Glorious Sun School of Business and Management, Donghua University, No. 1882, West Yan‟an Road, Shanghai, 200051, P. R. C. Tel: 86-158-2116-0873. E-mail: [email protected] Received: November 19, 2014 Accepted: December 10, 2014 Online Published: January 25, 2015 doi:10.5539/ibr.v8n2p62 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ibr.v8n2p62 Abstract This paper implements a PLS-SEM model to investigate the relationship between brand equity, consumer satisfaction and brand loyalty. Based on a sample of 1840 Chinese sports brands customers, the findings of the model testing confirm that perceived quality, perceived value of cost and price premium are significant dimensions of brand equity. Among these three, perceived value of cost is the most important. The findings also suggest that behavioral loyalty and attitudinal loyalty are effective on brand loyalty, and attitudinal loyalty has more positive influence on brand loyalty than behavioral loyalty does. The current research indicates that brand equity has a positive relationship with consumer satisfaction, and consumer satisfaction has a positive influence on brand loyalty. Further, this study reveals that brand equity has positive influence on brand loyalty partially mediated by consumer satisfaction. Keywords: PLS-SEM, brand equity, customer satisfaction, brand loyalty 1.

    U.S. Customs and Border Protection ◆ 19 CFR PART 12 CBP DEC. 17–12 RIN 1515–AE32 EXTENSION OF IMPORT RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND ETHNOLOGICAL MATERIALS FROM THE REPUBLIC OF MALI AGENCY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland Security; Department of the Treasury. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: This final rule amends the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations to reflect an extension of import restric- tions on certain archaeological materials from Mali. These restric- tions, which were originally imposed by Treasury Decision (T.D.) 93–74, and last extended by CBP Decision (Dec.) 12–14, are due to expire on September 19, 2017. The Acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, United States Department of State, has determined that conditions warrant the continued imposition of import restrictions on certain archaeological materials and the addi- tion of import restrictions on certain ethnological materials from Mali. The Designated List of cultural property described in CBP Dec. 07–77 is revised in this document to reflect the addition of ethnologi- cal materials to include manuscripts dating between the twelfth and twentieth centuries in paper. The import restrictions imposed on the archaeological and ethnological materials from Mali will be in effect for a five-year period, and the CBP regulations are being amended accordingly to reflect this extension through September 19, 2022. These restrictions are being imposed pursuant to determinations of the United States Department of State made under the terms of the Convention on Cultural Property Implementation Act, which imple- ments the 1970 United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property.

  • Sportswear Brand Names Adaptation from Alphabetic Languages Into Modern Standard Mandarin and Vice Versa
    Lingue e Linguaggi Lingue Linguaggi 22 (2017), 21-47 ISSN 2239-0367, e-ISSN 2239-0359 DOI 10.1285/i22390359v22p21 http://siba-ese.unisalento.it, © 2017 Università del Salento This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 SPORTSWEAR BRAND NAMES ADAPTATION FROM ALPHABETIC LANGUAGES INTO MODERN STANDARD MANDARIN AND VICE VERSA VICTORIA BOGUSHEVSKAYA UNIVERSITÀ CATTOLICA DEL SACRO CUORE Abstract – The augmentation of consumers and the development of the sports industry directly depends on the correct and successful coinage and translation of the sports products brands from foreign languages into Modern Standard Mandarin (MSM) and vice versa. This paper suggests a brief look at foreign and Chinese domestic sportswear brand names from a linguistic and cultural viewpoint. Foreign trademarks’ adaptation process in MSM is formed by several different categories, phonemic loans being the most numerous one. Adaptations of this type can be faithful or deviant, and often convey not only phonemic similarities, but also semantic associations. Semantic and graphic analysis of Chinese domestic top brand names shows that the principle of the auspicious strokes numbers is accurately followed. When introduce their names written in Latin letters on international arena, Chinese brands usually employ phonological transcription of their original names, which is either faithful or deviant mapping of pīnyīn. In order to make successful naming decisions, it is important to understand how the recipient language interprets explicit and implicit linguistic information encoded in the different donor writing system. To avoid any possible gaffes in adaptation of names, acronyms or slogans, one must be familiar with cultural traditions, superstitions, symbolism, and frequent ambiguity of Chinese characters.
