Nike's stock price has fallen sharply, pushing its dividend yield close to 4%, well above its 5-year average of under 2%. Despite beating Q3 earnings estimates, the company issued soft guidance for fiscal 2026 and faces ongoing international challenges. Free cash flow has declined significantly, raising the payout ratio above 100%, which suggests a dividend cut could occur within the next 6 to 12 months if pressures continue. The stock remains expensive at nearly 30 times forward earnings, and meaningful price recovery is unlikely until margins improve and geopolitical tensions ease, possibly in about a year.
