NAUTILUS, INC. THIRD QUARTER 2005 NET SALES RISE 33 PERCENT;

COMPANY MEETS ITS EARNINGS GUIDANCE

VANCOUVER, Wash. – (November 2, 2005) –Nautilus, Inc. (NYSE: NLS), a leading marketer, developer, and manufacturer of branded health and fitness products, today announced results for the three months ended September 30, 2005, with net sales growth of 33 percent including its new apparel division, and net income growth of 32 percent excluding a gain on the sale of land last year.

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2005, were $163.3 million compared to $123.2 million for the corresponding period last year, up 33 percent. Net income for the quarter was $8.3 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, up from $7.5 million, or $0.22 per share, or 11 percent for the corresponding period last year. The year ago quarter included a pretax $1.8 million gain on sale of land, which contributed $0.03 per share.

“We are pleased with our revenue and earnings results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2005,” said Gregg Hammann, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our campaign to bring complete assortments of high-quality branded fitness equipment into retail and specialty retail locations, where 80 percent of consumers shop for fitness products, continues to diversify our sales channels. Even with this positive performance, we need to improve our go-to-market effectiveness on new product innovations in order to capitalize on the opportunities we have ahead of us. This needed improvement, combined with some softness in the marketplace, has prompted us to take a more conservative view of the fourth quarter.”

“As we look forward, with five leading fitness brands, strong marketing and customer relationships, a wave of new product innovation, and the best position our company has ever had across diverse sales channels, we are very excited about our growth opportunities. Fitness is becoming a necessity around the world as our global society comes to grips with the health consequences of inactivity. We continue to believe our strategic business plan will deliver top line growth of 15 to 20 percent, and bottom line growth of 20 to 30 percent.”

For the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company estimates that net sales will grow approximately 25 percent compared to the same period last year. Meanwhile, fourth quarter 2005 earnings are expected to grow to $0.44 to $0.48 per diluted share, up from $0.42 per share during the year ago quarter when the Company achieved 50 percent earnings improvement. The Company expects its full year 2005 earnings to be $1.06 to $1.10, on annual sales of around $660 million.

The Company reported that it repurchased approximately 190,000 shares of stock during the third quarter at an average price of $23.75, as part of a $100 million buyback authorized by its Board earlier in the year.

In addition, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.10 per common share, payable December 9, 2005, to stockholders of record as of November 20, 2005.
