I can see two scenarios:1) Things get better, stock goes up2) Company gets bought out; value of brand should be more than current market cap

Playboy will rise again. Why go to a club with strippers walking around when you can go to a club with Playboy Playmates everywhere. It is a tradition that has passed from generation to generation and in my eyes Playboy is more American than baseball. It is true that Playboy no longer possesses a monopoly of the porn business, but their future business model will have more to do with their brand name, and style than pornography. My biggest concern is who will replace Hugh Hefner when the time comes. Perhaps a reality TV to find the next Hugh Hefner is in order, it will be like American Idol with more cleavage, and less Simon.

With increasing debt and more and more porn being free online, playboy is in trouble. They need to completely change there imagine and focus more on making the symbol more prominent as a name brand sale item like: Prada, Ed Hardy, or Victoria Secert. Get away from magazine sales completely, but I own it because i am counting on a buyout. Bet on it. The bunny is worth billions in the right hands.
