With the opening of ordsprog

With the opening of these developments, we will have more than doubled the size of our operating resort portfolio in about three years. With the cash we recently received from the sale of two resorts to the joint venture with CNL and our strong operating cash flow, we are well-positioned to stay on track to begin at least two new projects a year, as well as selectively add condominiums and/or additional rooms and expanded facilities at existing resorts.

Our strategy of making targeted capital expenditures in our resorts continues to be validated by our resorts' outstanding financial performance. We will continue to strategically invest in high-return projects that generate increased operating income at our resorts. We will also be making continued investments in key domestic and international growth projects which will enhance our overall growth rate for years to come. Our strong cash flow and superior access to low-cost debt financing will allow us to maintain our financial strength even while growing the company significantly.

We ended 2005 on a very strong note, and achieved record revenues and operating cash flow for the year. We successfully managed through a period of increased energy costs and generated higher free cash flow to improve our credit quality. Over the course of the year, we achieved many strategic milestones, including the acquisition of a major wind energy company in the U.S. and the start of many new projects and platform expansions in various markets around the world.

Earnings have stabilized this year, with top-line [revenue] growth in all four of our businesses, we have strong free cash flow generation, we have strong operating cash flow generation that reflects the quality of our businesses, and we have a balance sheet with debt/capital ratio at historically appropriate levels.

Our operating cash flow was very strong this quarter. Our healthy balance sheet positions us well to seek out opportunities in the market, in order to add to our solutions portfolio and continue to increase our international reach.

The first quarter was another strong operating quarter for MGM MIRAGE. We continued to build on our foundation of world-class resorts, and we also made significant progress on meaningful development projects which we believe will leverage our strengths -- management, brands, financial discipline -- and lead to sustained growth for many years to come.

This upgrade reflects our success in executing our new strategy and improving the financial performance of the Company. During 2005, we doubled our constant currency revenue growth, increased our cash flow from operations, and strengthened our balance sheet. Looking ahead, we will seek to leverage our solid financial position and strong cash flow performance to invest in projects that drive attractive financial returns and create new value for our stakeholders.

BASF's rating level will depend on the ultimate prices paid, plans for future share buybacks and dividends mitigated by the cash flow benefits of current strong petrochemical market conditions and operating cash flows, which may help it to reduce the increased debt load more quickly.

adversely affect its operating income and cash flows for the fourth quarter and year 1998, and will likely materially adversely affect the cash flows and operating income of the company in future years.

We believe that both IAC and Expedia have the cash flow and operating strength to support additional leverage and share repurchases and look forward to both companies taking steps in that direction.

The company has a magnificent group of resorts and real estate assets. We're interested in developments that can showcase our resorts.

The steps we took this past year strengthened our financial position. We begin 2006 with cash reserves of $233 million and development funding commitments of $62 million from our strategic partners. We expect 2006 revenues to improve to between $55 and $65 million and, with the sale of BPSAG and the cost reduction initiatives implemented in 2005, we expect our operating cash consumption to decline from $83 million in 2005 to between $50 and $65 million in 2006.

We executed well strategically and financially this year. Our company focus continues to be on generating strong operating cash flow by being in control of the growth of our brands and by fine tuning our global operations.

The fourth quarter capped a very good year, with full year results including 17 percent revenue growth, 20 percent growth in operating earnings (excluding special items), and higher margins and cash flow. The year's performance reflects the strength of our portfolio and attractiveness of our core businesses.
