Hotel income was $11.6 million for 1Q2013 compared to $14.4 million for 1Q2012 due to (i) 11 hotels under the Group's operations for 1Q2013 compared to 14 hotels for 1Q2012, and (ii) depreciated JPY/USD exchange rate which caused the translated hotel income from Japan to be lower in 1Q2013 compared to 1Q2012.

Total expenses for 1Q2013 was $16.8 million compared to $17.5 million for 1Q2012 mainly due to depreciated JPY/USD exchange rate which reduced the translated expenses of Japan subsidiaries.
