Hold on, here we go again! First quarter results Bow Flex Inc BFX Shares issued 8971541 1998-04-03 close $11.25 Monday Apr 6 1998 Mr Brian Cook reports Bow Flex's sales for the first quarter ended March 31 1998 increased 293% to $15.7 million, compared to $4.0 million in the same quarter a year ago. The quarterly sales, which are approximately 55% of total sales in fiscal year 1997, set a new record for the company. Sales for the first quarter surpassed the $10.3 million in the fourth quarter of 1997 by 52% and marked the fifth consecutive quarter of record sales growth. The company expects to release full quarterly financial information on April 20 1998. The increasing sales are attributed to expanded television advertising on Bow Flex's home fitness equipment, a higher rate of converting information calls into sales, a broader product line and improved access to financing for customers. For the fiscal year ended December 31 1997 Bow Flex had sales of $28.4 million and net income of $3.6 million. (c) Copyright 1998 Canjex Publishing Ltd. canada-stockwatch.com
