Neutral Impact 2 of 5 leadership Written later

NIKE said its Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer and Corporate Controller, Johanna Nielsen, will resign effective September 4, 2026, to pursue another opportunity, and that the resignation is not due to any disagreement with the company. Executive Vice President and CFO David Denton will also serve as Interim Corporate Controller and principal accounting officer until the board appoints a successor, and his compensation is not changing for that role.

  • The filing states her resignation is not the result of any disagreement with the company over operations, policies or practices.
  • David Denton, EVP and CFO, becomes Interim Corporate Controller as of September 4, 2026, and principal accounting officer until a successor is appointed.
  • Mr. Denton's compensation is not being adjusted for the interim controller role; his CFO appointment was reported in an 8-K filed June 23, 2026.
