Three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to three months ended March 31, 1998
Revenues decreased to $5,461,649 versus prior year of $7,416,265. The decrease
was due to lower commission income, lower consulting fee income and lower motel
revenue. Total operating expenses decreased to $2,592,842 in 1999 from
$3,039,004 in 1998. The decrease was due to lower salaries and wages, reduced
minority interest and lower operating expenses.
The decrease in income tax expense to $940,000 was due to lower operating
income.
