of these actions, we reduced our global workforce by approximately 5% and incurred pre−tax restructuring charges of $195 million in fiscal 2009, primarily
consisting of cash severance costs. These charges are included in “Corporate” for segment reporting purposes.
Goodwill, Intangible and Other Asset Impairment
In fiscal 2009, we recognized a $401 million pre−tax non−cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of Umbro’s goodwill, intangible and
other assets. Although Umbro’s financial performance for fiscal 2009 was slightly better than we had originally expected, projected future cash flows had
fallen below the levels we expected at the time of acquisition. This erosion was a result of both the unprecedented decline in global consumer markets,
particularly in the United Kingdom, and our decision to adjust the level of investment in the business.
We measured the fair value of Umbro by using an equal weighting of the fair value implied by a discounted cash flow analysis and by comparisons
with the market values of similar publicly traded companies. We believe the use of both models compensated for the inherent risk associated with either
model if used on a stand−alone basis, and this combination was indicative of the factors a market participant would consider when performing a similar
valuation. The fair value of Umbro’s indefinite−lived trademark was estimated using the relief from royalty method, which assumes that the trademark has
value to the extent that Umbro is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from the trademark. Our assessments resulted in the
recognition of impairment charges of $199 million and $181 million related to Umbro’s goodwill and trademark, respectively, in fiscal 2009. In addition to
the impairment analysis, we determined an equity investment held by Umbro was also impaired, and recognized a charge of $21 million related to the
impairment of that investment. These charges are included in our “Other Businesses” category for segment reporting purposes.

Fiscal 2010 Compared to Fiscal 2009
Other (income) expense, net is primarily comprised of foreign currency conversion gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary assets and
liabilities in non−functional currencies, the impact of certain foreign currency derivative instruments, and unusual or non−recurring transactions that are
outside the normal course of business. For fiscal 2010, other (income) expense, net was primarily comprised of net foreign currency gains and the
recognition of previously deferred licensing income related to our fiscal 2008 sale of NIKE Bauer Hockey.
For fiscal 2010, we estimate that the combination of translation of foreign currency−denominated profits from our international businesses and the
year−over−year change in foreign currency related gains included in other (income) expense, net increased our income before income taxes by
approximately $34 million.
Fiscal 2009 Compared to Fiscal 2008
For fiscal 2009, other (income) expense, net was primarily comprised of $43 million of foreign currency conversion gains and the recognition of $24
million of licensing income related to our fiscal 2008 sale of the
