Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Louis Navellier]

  Logitech International (LOGI) is a Swiss company that designs, manufactures, and markets hardware and software products that enable digital navigation, music and video entertainment, gaming, social networking, audio and video communication over the Internet, video security, and home-entertainment control.

• [By Brian O'Connell and Brian O'Connell]

  You can't be a video gamer, a PC user, or even a home entertainment watcher without using one of Logitech's (NASDAQ: LOGI) products.
  
  The company develops and markets hardware and software products that enable or enhance digital navigation, music and video entertainment, gaming, social networking, and audio and video communication over the Internet.
  
  The company's stock has risen by 16 percent so far this year. In January, Logitech announced "better than expected" sales of $628 million for the third quarter, up 2 percent on a year-over-year basis. Cash flow was way up, and earnings per share of $0.30 was up compared to a loss one year earlier.
  
  The retail numbers tell the real ! story, wi! th the company's combined retail growth categories up 62 percent, year-over-year. Tablet peripheral salaries were up 95 percent; audio wearables and wireless sales were up 79 percent; and video gaming sales rose by 25 percent in the same time period.
  
  Thos e are numbers that are manna from heaven for a company that really needed them, after a 30-month period of mediocre performance from 2010-to-mid-2013 that saw LOGU's share price fall stagnate in the $8-$10-per-share range.
  
  "We're pleased by our solid Q3 performance, with both sales and profit growth," notes Bracken P. Darrell, Logitech's chief executive officer. "We're encouraged by the robust sales in our growth categories, as well as the success of our ongoing initiatives to improve profitability.”
  
  "We still have more work ahead, but our turnaround is on track as we continue to build a faster and more profitable Logitech," he adds.
  
  Going forward, Logitech has upped its yearly outlook, calling for sales of $2.1 billion, up from $2 billion in its last outlook. Non-GAAP operating income should rise to $125 million, up from $100 million previously.
  
  Why the continued optimism over Logitech, after two-and-half years of tepid pe rformance?
