Regis Corporation is the largest hair salon chain in the world, with over 11,000 salons (including both company-owned and franchises), it is ranked 778 on the Fortune 1000. It has its headquarters in Edina, Minnesota.[1][2]
Its namesake is Regis Hair Salons, and it also owns the chains Carlton Hair International in Southern California, Images Salon in Las Vegas, NV, Michael of the Carlyle in Colorado Springs, and Denver, CO City Looks, Famous Hair, Best Cuts, Saturday's, HCUK, Supercuts, Pro-Cuts, Hair Crafters, Magicuts, MasterCuts, Borics Hair, Hair by Stewarts, Trade Secret, PureBeauty, SmartStyle, Cost Cutters, TGF Hair Salon, Hair Masters, Style America, Holiday Hair, and Mia & Maxx Hair Studio mostly in the United States, First Choice Haircutters based in Canada, and Vidal Sassoon, Jean Louis David, and Saint Algue based in Europe. In 2005 the company acquired Hair Club for Men and Women, in the hair loss field. The company recently sold all of its beauty schools to Empire Beauty School.


An additional concern for the boat industry is the increased cost associated with new legislation regulating and taxing the boating industry. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the industry have begun implementing stricter emissions standards that will be gradually phased in over the next 6 years and probably will add noise standards over the next several years. These stricter emissions standards require a large capital investment by marine engine companies such as Brunswick and OMC. Similar outboard engine emissions standards are being drafted in the EU. The engine industry has been negotiating with the Europeans for a phase-in period similar to the EPA phase-in. If emissions regulations have no phase-in, they will cause a severe disruption in the supply of outboards to the EU. Other regulations being considered, including operator licensing, upgraded standards for boat components, marine wildlife protection laws, and various user fees and taxes, also may have a significant impact on the boating industry.

Although dollar volume was up, wholesale unit shipments for the traditional powerboat segment declined, down 5 percent for 2005. Outboard boat wholesale unit shipments for the year were down almost 8 percent, which is similar to the decline seen in outboard engine shipments, down 7 percent for the year, according to the association. Sterndrive boats also showed a 2 percent decline in wholesale unit shipments in 2005.

NMMA's MSR tracks manufacturers' shipments to dealers for both boats and outboard engines using a control group of boat and engine manufacturers. The 2005 boat control group represents about 77 percent of the overall boat marketplace while the 2005 outboard engine control group represents about 95 percent of the market.


Industry Definitions
Boat – watercraft that provides transportation over water, can be propelled by human power, wind or engine
Boat dealer - a business that sells new boats and/or used boats at the retail level, based on a dealership contract with a boat maker or its distributor.
Boat park – an area that has a boat ramp, usually picnic areas, recreation facilities etc.
Bow – the forward part of the boat.
Inboard – an engine fitted inside a boat which is the opposite of an outboard.
Outboard - A detachable engine mounted on a boat's stern, this is very popular for family boats in the US.
Starboard - right side of a boat when looking toward the bow.
Stern – the rear end of the boat.
Market Metrics
Until the recent economic recession of 2008, this and related industries had enjoyed very strong growth. Figures gathered by the U.S. Department of Commerce indicated that boat building in the U.S. increased by 51% in the five year period measured from 1997 to 2002 to hit over US $8 billion on value of boats shipped while boat dealers had over US $12 billion in shipments(see chart below).
