Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

As a result of management’s continuing review of its business strategies, plans and operations, on September 17, 2004, management determined JumpKing, Inc. (“JumpKing”), a subsidiary of ICON Health & Fitness, Inc. (the “Company”), will be discontinuing the manufacture, marketing and distribution of trampolines (“trampoline operations”). As a result, approximately 415 jobs will be eliminated in the JumpKing plant in Mesquite, Texas. The Company expects the plant to cease trampoline operations by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2005. At this time, the Company is unable in good faith to make a determination of the costs associated with the discontinuance of trampoline operations or an estimate of the amount or the range of amounts expected to be incurred in connection with the discontinuance of trampoline operations or the amount or the range of amounts that will result in future cash expenditures. The Company will file an amended report on Form 8-K within four business days after it makes a determination of such costs and estimates or range of estimates. The Company expects to be able to complete this discontinuance of trampoline operations within twelve months.
