I agree Mike. Cook didn't even wear a suit and tie. He looked unprofessional. In addition, his answers were slow and long winded.

He mentioned some ways to expand or maintain growth.

1. Extend the Bowflex line ... I hadn't heard of that before.

2. Leverage the Nautilus name (like with the sleep system....I am still waiting for a home fitness product with Nautilus on it.)

3. Expand the online presence.

He also mentioned that they had a small Bowflex international presence in Japan and Europe and that they would expand that. Similarly, he said that the Nautilus European presence was strong.

All in all.....I give it a 5 out of 10 rating.

This company desperately needs some polished IR types.

I don't think Cook was the guy to be on TV....maybe the head of Sales (someone who meets the public regularly) would have been a better choice.

...the market didn't respond , although the volume is picking up noticeably this week.

...Walt!
