Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?
By Roger Strukhoff
Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

By: Marketwire .
Nov. 27, 2009 05:00 PM

QUEBEC, CANADA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/27/09 -- Cagim Real Estate Corporation (TSX VENTURE: CIM) (the "Corporation") a real estate management and acquisition corporation, is pleased to announce its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009.

    26.4% for the first nine months.

--  Increase in income from real estate activities of 48.3% for the third
    quarter, 58.7% for the first nine months.

--  Growth in fund from operations (FFO) of 24.5% (before variation in

A third quarter marked by growth despite the current economic environment. The growth is due to higher occupancy rates of income properties, primarily Place d'Affaires Lebourgneuf, Phase 2.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations

Operating revenues

During the third quarter of 2009, operating revenues totalled $993,304 compared to $831,180 in the third quarter of 2008, representing a 19.5% increase. The change in operating revenues between the periods is primarily due to increase in the occupancy rate of income properties. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, growth was up 13.6% over the first nine months of 2008.

Net Operating Income (NOI)

Net operating income totalled $590,274 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared to $462,533 in 2008. This represents an increase of 27.6% over the same period in 2008, which is higher than the operating revenues because the operating expenses increased only 9.4% compared to an increase of 19.5% for the operating revenues. Consequently, the net operating margin rose from 55.6% in the third quarter of 2008 to 59.4% in 2009. The increase stands at 26.4% for the first nine months of the year.

Income from real estate activities

Operating income from real estate activities increased by $112,430, namely 48.3%, during the third quarter of 2009, compared to the same quarter last year. This translated into a 58.7% rise for the first nine months of 2009 to $930,109.

Net income

For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Corporation posted a net income of $1,966, namely $0.000 per share, compared to a net loss of $16,133, namely $0.001 per share in 2008. This represents an improvement of $18,099. For the first nine months of 2009, there was a net loss of $46,074, a decrease in net loss of $101,419, which stood at $147,493 in 2008.

Occupancy rate of income properties

The occupancy rate of our income properties rose significantly in the third quarter of 2009, going from 88.8% at September 30, 2008 to 90.3% at September 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 September 2009, the Corporation issued convertible debentures that will mature in September 2011. These debentures bear interest at a rate of 9%, payable quarterly. They may be converted at a rate of $0.50 per common share until September 2010, or $0.55 per common share thereafter until maturity. Following the press release issued October 2, 2009, the Corporation confirms that the final portion of $250,000 was disbursed November 8, 2009.

Capital stock

In September 2009, following the expiry of 1,215,000 stock options granted in September 2004, the Board of Directors granted to its active members 835,000 stock options at an exercise price of $0.50 per common share, for a 5 year period, as previously issued. Moreover, an additional 850,000 stock options were granted to certain officers, directors and consultants of the Corporation, at an exercise price of $0.50 per common share, for a 5 year period.

Financial measures not in compliance with Canadian GAAP

Net operating income and income from real estate activities are not measures defined by GAAP, but they are useful measures to evaluate the Corporation's performance and are commonly used in the real estate sector. We wish to warn you that these measures have no standardized meanings and may therefore differ from a public corporation to another. That is why we provide you with the following chart which reconciles these measures to the most similar GAAP measures.
