NIKE, Inc.

The proposal asks Nike to perform an evaluation and publish a report (or disclose an existing analysis) that analyzes the benefits, costs, and legal, reputational, competitive, and other relevant risks related to the company's charitable giving. The proponent argues that some corporate charitable partnerships (citing the Human Rights Campaign as an example) may push controversial social agendas and could alienate customers, employees, and shareholders and expose the company to legal and reputational risk. The supporting statement requests transparency and suggests Nike consider whether its charitable partnerships respect diversity of viewpoint and avoid political polarization. The report is requested to be issued within a year and to exclude proprietary or confidential information.

The proposal requests that Nike publish a report, beyond its existing disclosures, explaining whether and how it intends to meet its science-based emissions reduction targets and detailing credible pathways and required resource commitments. The proponent cites climate-related financial and operational risks to Nike, noting that supply chain emissions comprise the vast majority of Nike's footprint and that progress to date is insufficient to reach 2030 goals. The supporting statement recommends including forward-looking quantitative strategies, scenario analysis, governance elements, and alignment with advisory frameworks such as the Transition Plan Taskforce. The report is requested to be published at reasonable expense and to exclude proprietary or confidential information.
