Question: Matthew Boss - JPMorgan Chase & Co - Analyst
: So Elliott, could you maybe elaborate on the accelerated actions under your sport offense realignment and maybe speak to the
phasing of innovation into the back half of the year in FY26? And then, Matt, if you could just speak to the cadence of revenues this
year or puts and takes to consider in terms of items impacting the first-quarter revenues relative to the back half of the year?
Question: Brian Nagel - Oppenheimer & Co Inc - Analyst
: So I'm just going to put two questions together, if I could. They're, I guess, relatively short. I mean, first off, with respect to the
continued, sort of say, cleanup of the marketplace that you're telegraphing now through the first half of fiscal '26, the question I
have is that consistent with your prior plans? Or have you found something new as you've continued to work on the business?
Then the second question I have, with regard to tariffs, the way that you described it, this could be an impact here in Q1. But then
over time, you'll be able to mitigate that, I think was $1 billion you said. Is that as simply saying that it takes time for these mitigation
efforts to take hold? Is that why we're expecting this -- the Q1 impact? Thanks.
Question: Lorraine Hutchinson - BofA Global Research - Analyst
: I wanted to focus on gross margin for a minute. Are you expecting the pressures to abate sequentially as the year progresses? And
can you talk about the back half if there's an opportunity to return the gross margins to growth?
Question: Jonathan Komp - Robert W. Baird & Co Inc - Analyst
: I want to follow up. There's obviously too many dynamics to think about guiding past Q1. But just given that wholesale is the largest
driver of your business today and you are seeing the inflection in order growth, are there any scenarios where you could get back
to total growth at any point in this year? Just trying to get a sense of how you're looking out on the horizon here.
Question: Adrienne Yih - Barclays Services Corp - Analyst
: It's nice to see the progress at wholesale. Elliott, I guess I'm going to start on that topic. Can you talk about the marketplace at a high
level, kind of where DKS-Foot Locker JV kind of sit in that specialty retail and then the segmentation with the newly added Amazon
expansion of distribution? And then Matt, along the same line, when did you start shipping or recognizing wholesale revenue? I
know you're going to be on board there in late July.
So just wondering how that revenue -- is that part of the revenue wholesale order book being kind of having more visibility as we
go into the back half, the addition of Amazon? Thank you very much.
Question: Brooke Roach - Goldman Sachs Group Inc - Analyst
: Elliott, I'm curious on your thoughts on the China marketplace and the opportunity to drive full recovery there over time. Understand
there's some unique characteristics of the marketplace that are making it a little bit more difficult to clean it up as quickly as the
other geos. Can you talk about the timeline and the cadence of what we should see over the course of the next fiscal year as you
look to return that to growth? And how are you thinking about the competitive and operating environment for the brand there
today? Thank you.

Question: Alex Straton - Morgan Stanley & Co Ltd - Analyst
: Perfect, thanks so much. Maybe for Elliott or Matt, as you think about kind of once the smoke clears through this year, just structurally,
is there any reason why this business like should not be a double-digit margin business? Or maybe just high level, can you walk us
through perhaps what's changed in as you think about clearing these actions and those all getting behind you, if anything has really
changed in like the structural margin of the business longer term?
