Nike profits from increased sales
Sportswear maker Nike saw its second-quarter income rise, helped by strong demand for its branded products.
The world's biggest sports clothing maker earned $469m (£300m; 359m euros), up from $457m for the same quarter a year ago.
Revenue at Nike rose 18% to $5.7bn, while futures orders were up by 13% to $8.9bn in the quarter.
Higher product costs again dented profit margins, which fell by 2.6 percentage points to 42.7%.
Nike also owns the brands Converse and Umbro, where it said said revenues increased by 5%.
