Select Comfort Corporation Research Report

Despite experiencing below-plan sales since February 1, 2013, Select Comfort remains confident in the company's growth and also remains committed to its strategy of delivering an unparalleled sleep experience for its customers. Furthermore, the company also sees that it will likely miss its internal goals for the first quarter of FY 2013. However, its optimism lies on the company's belief that this is just a short-term issue associated with accelerated changes made to its media-buying strategy. Select Comfort is already taking action in making the necessary corrections to both media buying and near-term expenses. On April 16 the company will report its first quarter financial results.
