The audit report was unqualified.
The company has suspended redemptions, affecting 15,000 investors with $325 million of funds.
Net operating income increased by 20 per cent from $60.6 million in 2007 to $72.4 million in 2008. But bad debt write-offs and credit impairments eroded this to produce the loss.
