Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations

Operating revenus

During the second 2009 quarter, operating revenues totalled $1,075,007 compared to $945,248 in the second quarter of 2008, representing a 13.7% increase. The change in operating revenues between the periods is due primarily to increase in the occupancy rate of income properties. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, growth was up 11% over the first six months of 2008.

Net operating income (NOI)

Net operating income totalled $604,170 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared to $455,369 in 2008. This represents an increase of 32.7% over the same period in 2008, due to an increase in the occupancy rate of income properties. The increase stands at $213,013, or 25.8%, for the first six months of the year. Consequently, the net operating margin rose from 48.2% in the second quarter of 2008 to 56.2% in 2009.

Income from real estate activities

Operating income from real estate operations increased by $148,891, or 67.2%, during the second quarter of 2009 compared to the same quarter last year. This translated into a $231,711 increase or 65.6% rise for the first six months of 2009 to $585,108.

Net income

For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Corporation posted a net income of $6,226 or $0.000 per share, compared to a net loss of $33,048 or $0.002 per share in 2008. This represents an improvement of $39,274. For the first six months of 2009, there was a net loss of $48,039, a decrease in net loss of $83,321 which stood at $131,360 in 2008.

Occupancy rate of income properties

The occupancy rate of our income properties rose significantly in the second quarter of 2009, going from 88.5% at June 30, 2008 to 90.0% at June 30, 2009, attesting to our hard work and the vibrancy of the Quebec region, where four of our buildings are located. Had it not been for the recent expansion of Edifice Centre d'Affaires Le Mesnil that is not yet leased, the occupancy rate would have been 92.1%.

Financing

In April 2009, the Corporation renewed a hypothecary loan with a balance of $822,496 that expired during that month. The term is of one year and comes with an annual interest rate of 6%.

In May 2009, the Corporation closed a 2nd rank hypothecary loan in the amount of $1,000,000 for Edifice Centre d'Affaires Le Mesnil. The hypothec provides a four year term, a capital payable at maturity of the term in May 2013, and a 9% per annum interest rate payable by monthly instalments. This arm's length financing was set to defray the costs of expansion of the leasable area of the aforementioned building, as well as the cost of the leasehold improvements for a leased premise of over 16,500 square feet in Edifice Centre d'Affaires Le Mesnil for the Ministry of Transport, which occupies the leased premises since February 1, 2009.

The fact that the Corporation secured these two financings in the current economic environment shows the lenders' confidence towards the Corporation.
