FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 28, 2004
INNSUITES HOSPITALITY TRUST (IHT) EXPECTS FIRST NINE MONTH’S INCOME PER BASIC AND DILUTED SHARE TO INCREASE TO $0.34 FROM THE PRIOR YEAR PERIOD
Phoenix, AZ., December 28, 2004 - InnSuites Hospitality Trust (AMEX:IHT)
InnSuites Hospitality Trust expects increased earnings for the first nine months of fiscal year 2005, with anticipated net income attributable to Shares of Beneficial Interest increasing to approximately $800,000, or $0.34 per basic and diluted share. The Trust expects net loss attributable to Shares of Beneficial Interest for the third quarter to be approximately $(410,000), or $(0.17) per basic and diluted share.
The Trust continues to carefully review complex accounting issues associated with the presentation of continuing operations and discontinued operations. As a result of these complex accounting issues, the Trust has been unable to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended October 31, 2004. The Trust hopes to complete its analysis of these issues and file its financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2004 on or about January 7, 2005.
