Dow Jones Description
Schiff Nutrition International, Inc. develops, manufactures, markets and distributes branded and private label vitamins, nutritional supplements and nutrition bars in the United States and throughout the world. We offer a broad range of capsules, tablets and nutrition bars. Our portfolio of recognized brands, including Schiff, Move Free and Tigers Milk ® , is marketed primarily through the mass market (including club) and, to a lesser extent, health food store distribution channels. During fiscal 2008 and the first six months of fiscal 2009, we continued to provide selling and marketing support intended both to defend our overall Move Free business against competition, including private label, and ultimately to increase our market share in the joint care product category. During our fiscal 2008 third quarter, we announced the introduction of smaller tablets for our existing Move Free items as well as the launch of a Move Free line extension. Operating results for the first half of fiscal 2009, as compared to fiscal 2008, are impacted by the shifting of advertising support from the first half to the second half of fiscal 2008 in support of these Move Free marketing initiatives. As a result, advertising expense for the first half of fiscal 2009 was greater than the amount recognized in the corresponding prior year period. ...
