WINNIPEG, MB--(Marketwired - June 05, 2015) - Gendis Inc. (
Net earnings for the 1st quarter were $1,938,000 ($0.15 per share) compared to net earnings of $2,440,000 ($0.18 per share) for the prior year 1st quarter. Revenue for the 1st quarter was $1,496,000 compared to $1,399,000 for the prior year 1st quarter. Revenue less expense for the 1st quarter was $392,000 compared to $643,000 for the prior year 1st quarter. The decline is primarily due to an allowance for non-collection of rent.
The volatility in net earnings quarter over quarter is primarily due to the change in fair value of security investments and investment properties with the attendant effect on deferred income taxes.
