Wall Financial Corporation announces Q4 operating results and financial statements

Canada NewsWire

VANCOUVER, April 21, 2017 /CNW/ - Wall Financial Corporation (the "Company") released its operating results and financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2017.  The Company recorded net earnings attributable to shareholders of the Company for the year ended January 31, 2017 of $19,493,635 or $0.58 per share compared with $23,223,077 or $0.70 per share for the year ended January 31, 2016.  Earnings for the January 31, 2016 year included a net income tax recovery of $7,839,691 resulting primarily from an intercompany transaction between two entities within the consolidated group whereby land was sold at fair market value, the gain for which was eliminated on consolidation for accounting purposes, but which resulted in a future income tax asset and a corresponding tax recovery that was included in the statement of earnings. 

As at January 31, 2017, earnings before interest, income tax, and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)1, and net earnings attributable to non-controlling interest were $57,220,888 (2016 – $30,032,928).

Higher average daily rates achieved at the hotels resulted in revenues of $66,221,266 and earnings2 of $14,778,671 from hotel operations for the year ended January 31, 2017 compared with revenues of $58,235,766 and earnings of $13,377,289 for the prior year.  Revenues from the Company's rental properties for the year ended January 31, 2017 were $17,094,946 compared with $11,912,592 for the prior year due to higher re-rental rates from the Company's renovated units and the full lease up of the Company's recently constructed 213-unit rental property. Revenue from development operations increased from $63,065,376 in the prior year to $219,499,688 for the year ended January 31, 2017 due mainly to the closing of 273 units at two of the Company's development projects in the current year compared with 58 units in the prior year.
