Keith Stewart, ShopNBC CEO, said, "The multi-channel shopper was quite active at ShopNBC over the Holiday Shopping Weekend, from Black Friday through Cyber Monday. We achieved sales gains and increasing e-commerce sales penetration by keeping the customer's interest and attention over a sustained period of time on our multiple platforms of TV, online, mobile and social media.

"Video game consoles, big screen TVs, GPS devices, along with jewelry and watches, were some of the principal categories of interest to our customers. The ease and convenience of shopping remotely, combined with our unique and ever-expanding product assortment, helped to drive much of the sales gains.

"Additionally, ShopNBC's focus on highlighting the benefit of online shopping continued to resonate with the consumer. Going forward, we remain highly focused on keeping the customer's appetite satisfied with new products, exciting programming, and strong service to continue building loyalty and community during the Holidays and beyond."
