For the three month period ended March 31, 2012 the Company reported earnings before income taxes of $536,716 on revenue of $820,219 compared to earnings before income taxes of $3,764,819 on revenue of $900,106 for the corresponding period in 2011. The majority of this decrease is attributable to a fair value gain on the Company's real estate of $3,484,794 in 2011 in accordance with the transition to IFRS. Revenue was lower for the period ended March 31, 2012 due to a reduction in common area and maintenance charges recovered due to an overpayment by certain tenants in 2011.

Rental expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 decreased to $262,210 compared to $307,193 for the corresponding period in 2011. The slight decrease is a result of a general repairs and maintenance expenditures being lower at all properties but primarily because of a one-time refund of an overcharged utility bill.
