Financial Summary
CNGR is a buy-out firm which presently engages in the businesses of used car sales and finance, sale and rental of intermediate bulk containers, sub-prime mortgage loans, and casino operations. For the fiscal year ended 4/30/01, revenues rose 44% to $342.8 million. Net income fell 60% to $6 million. Results reflect the inclusion of operations of Smart Choice and higher revenues at Car-Mart and Paaco, offset by the absence of a $10.9 million gain on the sale of securities.
