PART III — NARRATIVE

On April 26, 2007, Nautilus, Inc. (the “Company”) and ICON Health & Fitness (“ICON”) settled a series of pending lawsuits between the parties. This settlement included a number of claims and lawsuits between ICON and the Company going back to 2002-2003, and which were pending in federal courts in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Seattle, Washington, and before the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. Both the Company and ICON have filed dismissals of their respective lawsuits against each other.

The settlement agreement included provisions whereby ICON granted the Company use of certain intellectual property. Following the settlement, the Company retained a third-party accounting firm to complete a valuation analysis with respect to the intellectual property. The third-party analysis has been completed, but without sufficient time for the Company’s auditors to review the analysis and complete their own analysis regarding valuation of these intangible assets. As a result, the Company was unable to timely complete its financial statements and file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ending June 30, 2007. The Company expects that the valuation work will be completed, and its Form 10-Q will be filed, within five calendar days of the prescribed due date for such quarterly report.
