Highlight of Business Operations:

We periodically evaluate the collectability of amounts due from tenants and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts ($43,241,000 and $62,979,000 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010) for estimated losses resulting from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their lease agreements. We also maintain an allowance for receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents ($4,046,000 and $7,316,000 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively). This receivable arises from earnings recognized in excess of amounts currently due under the lease agreements. Management exercises judgment in establishing these allowances and considers payment history and current credit status in developing these estimates. These estimates may differ from actual results, which could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Our revenues, which consist of property rentals, tenant expense reimbursements, hotel revenues, trade shows revenues, amortization of acquired below-market leases, net of above-market leases and fee income, were $2,915,665,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $2,740,681,000 in the prior year, an increase of $174,984,000, of which $154,080,000 relates to the Cleveland Medical Mart development project. Below are the details of the increase (decrease) by segment:

In the year ended December 31, 2011, we recognized a $15,134,000 net gain on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets (primarily from the sale of residential condominiums and marketable securities), compared to a $81,432,000 net gain in the prior year (primarily from the sale of a 45% interest in the Warner Building and sales of marketable securities).
