Dividends, interest and other income totalled $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, in comparison to $3.0 million in the same period in 2007 and consist principally of dividends and interest earned on the company's securities portfolio. The decrease in investment income is a result of lower interest rates and dividend income and decreased foreign exchange gains.
The company and its major shareholders are considering alternatives that would be intended to provide liquidity to preferred shareholders and simplify the company's capital structure.
