Financial highlights included the following:

• Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at February 29, 2012 totalled $26.1 million, which represents a decrease of $1.5 million from August 31, 2011, prior to the return of capital of $7.0 million paid to the shareholders on March 13, 2012. The $1.5 million decrease is due to losses from ongoing operations related primarily to the payment of professional fees;

Look also continues to pursue potential investment opportunities that could utilize Look's cash and tax attributes in an effort to maximize shareholder value. Look's remaining tax attributes of approximately $165 million may be utilized by the Corporation in its future operations, or may be utilized by a potential acquirer to offset income, provided certain tests are satisfied including those related to change in control.
