the prior period. Earnings per share (fully-diluted) of 16.1 cents increased 23%
from the prior period.
Total revenue increased $427,000 or 2%. Fleet sales revenue increased 15% due to
a larger number of units sold, with a corresponding increase in cost of services
of 10%. Guest revenue decreased 3% due to decreased guest experience nights.
Guest cost of services before employee compensation and benefits decreased 11%
and employee compensation and benefits decreased 5%.
Investment in guest fleet increased $932,000 from April 30, 2013 levels to $23.9
million at January 31, 2014, primarily due to fleet purchases in the first
quarter of $12.2 million combined with a transfer to fleet inventory available
for sale of $5.4 million, disposals due to unit sales of $2.9 million,
depreciation of $2.7 million and other additions of $191,000. Fleet and other
financing increased $8.8 million from April 30, 2013 due to financing relating
to the purchase of new fleet combined with the purchase of the Vancouver
property and land in Balzac, Alberta.
The Company's core business, promoting the opportunity to experience Canada at
your own pace through the recreational vehicle experience, is seasonal in nature
with the majority of its revenue being earned during the May to October period,
the first and second quarters of its fiscal year. The majority of the company's
cost of services expenses before employee compensation, benefits and
depreciation are incurred in that same period. The Company markets for sale
previously guest-experienced recreational vehicles and fleet inventory available
for sale on a continuous basis throughout the year; however, sales of such units
are generally strongest from January to early summer. As a result of ongoing
depreciation, interest and other operating expenses, the last two quarters of
the fiscal year normally produce operating losses. Losses incurred in the last
two quarters may exceed profits earned in the first two quarters of the fiscal
year. The financial data included in this release has been prepared in
accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial
Reporting.
