Revenue from real estate operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $66,324,777 compared to $49,601 in the same period of fiscal 2010 as a result of condominium sales closing in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared to none in the prior year. Revenue from hotel operations was $16,026,723 as at April 30, 2010, an increase of $6,295,571 from the same period in fiscal 2010. This increase was due to higher occupancy and room rates in the first quarter as a result of the stimulus from the Vancouver Winter Olympics and the addition of the Westin hotel to the Company's hotel portfolio in January, 2010. Rental operating revenues increased by $543,625 to $4,729,188 as a result of a general increase in rental rates and an increase of 68 more rental units.
