ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

As previously reported by Direct Focus, Inc. (the "Company") on Form 8-K filed
February 21, 2002, the Company acquired the receivables, inventories, fixed
assets, certain intangible assets, and the stock of the foreign subsidiaries of
StairMaster Sports/Medical Products, Inc. ("StairMaster") on February 8, 2002,
for a cash purchase price of approximately $25.8 million, including acquisition
costs. StairMaster was acquired through a bankruptcy auction in the U. S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Washington, which auction was
completed on January 17, 2002. StairMaster filed voluntary petitions for
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on August 30, 2001.
The foreign subsidiaries were not included in the bankruptcy petition.

The acquired assets include property, plant, and equipment used to manufacture,
assemble, distribute, and sell fitness equipment including steppers, stepmills,
treadmills, and exercise bicycles. The Company intends to continue to use the
acquired assets for these purposes.

The purchase price for StairMaster was determined in the bankruptcy court
auction. The Company's bid was formulated on the basis of historical and
projected financial performance. The Company financed the acquisition from cash
on hand. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the final
calculation of net trade receivables and inventory as of the closing date. In
accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement by and among the Company and
StairMaster, the purchase price, based on the formula set forth in the Asset
Purchase Agreement, should be finalized in the second quarter of 2002.

The foregoing description of the StairMaster acquisition is not deemed to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Asset
Purchase Agreement and the Amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement by and
between the Company and StairMaster, dated January 17, 2002, and February 7,
2002, respectively, filed as exhibits to the Form 8-K filed on February 21,
2002.
