Certainly our success in transforming our business since 1993 (our first year as a public company) is a good indicator that we are always adjusting and improving. Our organization lives for challenges, is driven to succeed, and is among the best-of-breed. We started our public company as a middle market mall company with 56 regional malls that were 85% occupied and generated approximately $250 in sales per square foot. Then our change began and I assure you will always continue. David Simon We led our industry in leasing, development ■ Industry-leading financial results.
