REVENUE:

Revenue for the first three months decreased by $560,626 to $30,146 when compared to the same period last year.

Rental Revenue:

In the first three months of the fiscal year income from rental properties was $30,104 , decreased by $23,010 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was mainly due to expiration of most of the rental leases with no renewal.

Interest:

Interest income for the three months ending September 30, 2009 decreased by $537,616 to $42 when compared to the same period last year. The decrease was due to the retirement of all related party loans with interest bearing.

Equity Income from PICH:

The equity income from PICH is $353,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The equity investment in PICH is based on the fair values of the assets and liabilities of PICH at the date of acquisition, November 14, 2008 .

NET INCOME:

Net income for the first three months increased by $3,368,480 from a loss of $53,826 to an income of $3,314,654 when compared to the same period last year. The increase was mainly due to the sale of the long-lived assets held for sale and real estate facilities for $6,090,000 during the quarter. The net proceeds to us were approximately $5,800,000 . The long-lived assets held for sale were 17 apartments of Greenland Garden in Beijing , PRC. One of the real estate facilities sold was the apartment at Robinson Road in Hong Kong . As a result, the Company recognized a gain on sale of $3,036,273 .

Outlook

The Company has chosen to change its strategic direction from being a firm focused on Canadian real estate to one that is focused on one of the fastest growing economies in the world - China .

Using the same formula as in the past, management believes the company will successfully transit into the Chinese marketplace and continue to grow through a well-defined internal growth and external acquisition program. Management intends to seek out and take advantage of opportunities in the Asian market and will not restrict itself to the real estate or hospitality industries.
