Blockbuster Chairman and CEO Jim Keyes said the company’s first-quarter $42.6 million profit — after a $51.8 million loss a year earlier — was a sign that a turnaround plan was succeeding. Blockbuster reported a 2.9% rise in same-store sales in the U.S., which included 20% growth in merchandise sales and the profitability of its subscription-based Total Access program.
