Bowflex Lineup the Talk of the Retail Super Show; Growing Line of Retail Fitness Equipment Now Bears Bowflex Name January 21, 2005 Bowflex Lineup the Talk of the Retail Super Show; Growing Line of Retail Fitness Equipment Now Bears Bowflex Name ORLANDO, Fla., Jan 21, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Bowflex(R), a name synonymous with innovative home exercise gyms, is becoming a comprehensive fitness brand that now appears on a growing line of popular fitness equipment for the home, retail executives and industry leaders discovered at the 20th annual Super Show held here this week. The name Bowflex now appears on three new treadmills, a TreadClimber(R) cardiovascular machine, SelectTech(R) dumbbells, exercise benches and strength cages, in addition to two models of home exercise gyms on display for attendees at the Super Show. The show is hosted annually by the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association, which represents more than 1,000 sporting goods companies serving the $52-billion sporting goods industry. "What a difference a year makes," said Tom Cove, executive vice president of the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association. "During the last 12 months we've seen Bowflex transformed to become a complete line of fitness equipment compared to just the home gyms it showcased at last year's show. For Bowflex to reveal its growing line of fitness products at this industry- leading retail show, it says a great deal about the company's long-term plans for this brand, which already is among the most well recognized in the fitness industry." "The transformation from a product to a fitness brand came as a result of consumer research where people told us they wanted Bowflex cardio equipment and free weights, in addition to home gyms," said Tim Hawkins, chief marketing officer for The Nautilus Group, which makes and markets Bowflex branded equipment. "We are developing innovative, high-quality products, and differentiating them by channel, which makes it easy for consumers to find the right products wherever they prefer to shop." Hawkins said recent sales data shows that Bowflex home gyms and Schwinn(R)Fitness products are rapidly gaining retail market share since they were introduced through larger retailers about 18 months ago. "We're well on our way to becoming the brand leader in every retail segment where we compete," he said. A broad range of Bowflex and Schwinn Fitness branded products are available at retailers such as The Sports Authority, Dick's Sporting Goods, G.I. Joes, Costco, Canadian Tire Corporation, Sears Canada, more than 350 specialty fitness dealers, and at independent bike dealers. The Nautilus Group Headquartered in Vancouver, Wash., The Nautilus Group, Inc. (NYSE:NLS) helps people achieve a fit and healthy lifestyle through proper exercise, rest and nutrition. With a brand portfolio that includes Nautilus(R), Bowflex(R), Schwinn(R)Fitness, StairMaster(R) and Trimline(R), The Nautilus Group manufactures and markets a complete line of innovative health and fitness products through direct, commercial and retail channels. The company was formed in 1986 and had 2003 revenues of about $500 million. It has nearly 1,100 employees and operations in Washington, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, Illinois, Virginia, Switzerland, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, China and other locations around the world.

More than 300 retailers fi led for bankruptcy in 2017,1 many being smaller “Mom & Pop” shops. As of the end of 2017, there have been no less than thirty major retail bankruptcy fi lings, exceeding the total number of major retail cases fi led in 2016.2 As of the end of the third quarter of 2017, more than 6,400 store closings occurred—triple the number of closings during the fi rst half of 2016.3 Analysts predict the total number of storing closings for the year ending 2017 will be between approximately 8,600 to more than 9,000, well above the 6,200 closings during the 2008 fi nancial crisis, and signifi cantly more than that of 2016.4 At this rate, at least 10% of the total physical US retail landscape is estimated to have closed during 2017. These cutbacks resulted in an estimated 76,084 job cuts by retail employers in 2017, a 26% increase over 2016, unseen in any other industry in 2017.5 Retailers are confronted with market pressures and unique legal issues in bankruptcy that make successful reorganizations more diffi cult to attain. It is clear that the trend of failing retailers will intensify before it improves.
