Operating Cash Flow
Cash flow from operations was $520 million ($0.88 per share)
during the third quarter, and included higher realization gains due
to the partial monetization of power generation facilities.
"We made significant progress on several fronts during the
quarter. We launched several new funds with nearly $7 billion of
investor allocations; generated $1.3 billion of new liquidity
through equity issuance and asset monetizations; and proposed a
recapitalization of an Australian infrastructure group which will
expand our operating base in this sector," commented Bruce Flatt,
Chief Executive Officer of Brookfield Asset Management. "In
addition, we achieved solid operating results during the quarter,
which continues to demonstrate the strength of our operating
platforms and quality of our assets."
Net Income
Net income for the third quarter of 2009 was $112 million ($0.17
per share) compared to $171 million ($0.27 per share) for the same
period in 2008.
Basis of Presentation
This news release and accompanying financial statements make
reference to cash flow from operations on a total and per share
basis. Cash flow from operations is defined as net income excluding
depreciation and amortization, interests of non-controlling
shareholders, future income taxes and other items as described as
such in the consolidated statements of income, and including
dividends and disposition gains that are not otherwise included in
net income. Brookfield uses cash flow from operations to assess its
operating results and the value of its business and believes that
many of its shareholders and analysts also find this measure of
value to them. The company provides the components of cash flow
from operations and a reconciliation between cash flow from
operations and net income with the supplemental information
accompanying this news release. Cash flow from operations is a
non-GAAP measure which does not have any standard meaning
prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar
measures presented by other companies.
Dividend Declaration
The Board of Directors declared a dividend of US$0.13 per Class
A Common Share, payable on February 28, 2010 to shareholders of
record as at the close of business on February 1, 2010. The Board
also declared all of the regular monthly and quarterly dividends on
its preferred shares.
Information on Brookfield Asset Management's declared share
dividends can be found on the company's web site under Investor
Centre/Stock & Dividend Information.
Additional Information
The Letter to Shareholders and the company's Supplemental
Information for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 contain
further information on the company's strategy, operations and
financial results. Shareholders are encouraged to read these
documents, which are available on the company's web site.

The statements of net cash flow from operations above are

company's consolidated financial statements presented in its 2008
Annual Report, which are prepared in accordance with Canadian
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Management uses
cash flow from operations as a key measure to evaluate performance
and to determine the underlying value of its businesses. Readers
are encouraged to consider both measures in assessing Brookfield
Asset Management's results. Cash flow from operations is equal to
net income excluding "other items" as presented in the consolidated
statements of income on page 6 of this release.
Cash flow from operations in this statement represents the
operations of Brookfield Asset Management and Brookfield Properties
Corporation ("Brookfield Properties") on a combined basis and is
net of carrying charges associated with related liabilities and
cash flows attributable to non-controlling interests. Readers are
encouraged to refer to the company's supplemental information or
the MD&A contained in the 2008 Annual Report, both of which are
