For anyone interested, the annual report for 2010 for Hasbro is online, but the brief bits relating to TFs can be found here.
Keep in mind that 2010 was a non-movie year for their biggest property (Transformers), so sales were expected to dip last year... and naturally will go through the roof this year - which was also mentioned for their 2011 forecast.- Overall revenue was down in 2010 when compared to 2009, BUT operating profit was up, mostly due to lower taxes and depreciation.
- Sales for Transformers and GI Joe products decreased, but this loss in revenue was offset by an increase in Nerf and Marvel sales, in particular Iron Man 2.
