Playboy is a cool and strong brand and all, but the company pretty much sucks. They can't turn a profit despite all that's going on.
For the full-year [2003], Playboy reported a net loss of $17.1m compared with a net loss of $33.5m for 2001. The website made a loss of $284,000 in the last three months of the financial year, compared with a $5.1m loss in the same period last year.
