Sharper Image hopes Father's Day will slow sales slump
Thursday June 1, 12:07 pm ET

Richard Thalheimer, the founder, chairman and CEO of gadget seller Sharper Image Corp., said Thursday he hopes new products going on sale for Father's Day will slow a drastic decline in the company's sales.

San Francisco-based Sharper Image (NASDAQ: SHRP - News) said Thursday its total sales fell to $33.4 million for the month of May, a 27 percent drop from total sales of $45.6 million a year ago in the same month.

Same-store sales, an important measure of a retailer's health, fell 36 percent in May. Catalog and Internet sales also fell.

Year-to-date sales were $137.4 million for the four months ended May, down from sales of $186.8 million a year ago.

Thalheimer said in a press release that his company hopes 45 new products, including a device that turns tap water into a germ killer, will revive its sales.
