today, brunswick is the market leader in the marine, fitness and billiards industries; and our participation in these industries is deliberate. no company has brunswick’s breadth and scope in the marine industry. no company equals brunswick’s quality and innovation in fitness equipment. and no company possesses brunswick’s knowledge and heritage in billiards. as evidenced by our current portfolio of businesses, we are a different company today than we were 160 years, 25 years or even five years ago, and we have an ambitious road before us. despite our evolution, two fundamentals remain consistent: • our goal to be the best—and all it entails—in any industry of which we are a part; • our ability to create and unlock value in our varying portfolio of businesses.
