Over the second quarter, the Company kept an effective management, with strict cost control (projects, land bank and corporate expenses), thus, achieving an excellent operating performance.

If we consider same store sales, our Net Revenue reached R$41.4 million, up by 7.1% on the R$38.6 million recorded in 2Q11.
Although Consolidated EBITDA grew by 85.0% over last year, the Company closes the second half of 2012 with a net loss of R$5.0 million, versus a net income R$0.7 million in 2Q11, chiefly driven by higher depreciation of R$2.2 million and higher negative balance of financial result in the amount of R$8.0 million, related to the funding to finance continued structural improvements in recently acquired hotels, thus, increasing the quality of services rendered in our hotels.
