Effect of merger


Hyrum Smith, then the CEO of Franklin Quest, expected that the 1997 acquisition would increase market value through the synergistic combination of Covey's 7 Habits book with the Franklin Planner and with its associated training-courses.[citation needed] However, after the merger FranklinCovey's stock price dropped from around $20 per share to a low of under $1 per share in early 2003. As of June 1, 2006, it traded around $7 per share which has increased their purchase rate.[citation needed] From late 2009 to mid-2010 the stock price moved in the range $5.5 to $8.[2]
So far in 2018 the stock has traded in the $22 to $28 range.[3]



Store closures


Franklin Covey selectively closed their stores to the point that they now only have a single retail location in Utah.



Products


The company markets a variety of book and audio products based on Covey's 7 Habits material, as well as numerous titles by other FranklinCovey consultants. The company also offers two main training courses: one based on The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People; and another based on the original FranklinQuest time management program, now titled Focus.


Additionally, FranklinCovey has launched a line of new training and consulting products focusing on leadership and organizational alignment. Software implementation of the company's planning system is named "PlanPlus for Windows", and an online version is offered under the brand PlanPlus Online."
