PROFILE |
 |
Yeah, yeah -- everyone subscribes for the articles. Playboy Enterprises publishes "Playboy," the world's #1 men's magazine with a monthly circulation of nearly 5 million "readers." The global publishing and adult entertainment company is also active in cable and pay-per-view TV, home videos, and merchandising. Playboy filed to take its Internet arm (Playboy.com) public in 2000, but cancelled those plans later the same year. Once the company's staple operation, publishing now only provides about 45% of Playboy's sales as non-print operations have expanded. Founder, editor-in-chief, and bachelor extraordinaire Hugh Hefner owns 32% of the company (70% of the voting power); daughter Christie runs the business.
