Brookstone Inc is presently remodeling a majority of its 179 outlets. The chain, which was created in 1965 as a cataloger focusing on hard-to-find tools, has since pursued novelty products. Michael Anthony, Brookstone's chief executive, wants his outlets to be similar to department stores, with massage products in one area and travel-related products in another. The setting up of 50 "seasonal" outlets is expected in summer 1998. Brookstone's net income in FY ending 1/31/98 totaled $7.3 mil, up 25% vs the prior FY, on revenues of $240 mil, up 10%. Sales are expected to be $266 mil in FY ending 1/31/99. Sharper Image, a Brookstone competitor, generated earnings of $590,000 in FY98 on revenues of $217 mil for its 85 outlets and catalog operations. Detail is given to a profile of Michael Anthony.
