A few months ago there was a thread on this. I know Black Diamond Equipment is publicly owned. The Jarden Corporation, which owns K2 (who owns Line) is publicly owned. Hope that helps.

Ive done the same project as you (accounting class) and pick a big corporation. Way easier to find records, way easier to write about. I did LG and I banged out like a 15 page analysis and got a 95.

My brother did one on Jarden Corp a couple years ago. Should be easy enough.

True that. I did a speech on Tanner Hall last year (before Like a Lion came out). Finding information was near impossible.
