Alerus Revenues Higher Than Projected

If this year's profit remains intact, it could mean good news for the Alerus Center.

When center staff members produced the 2012 budget, they projected a $20,000 loss for the year. Instead revenues were 22 percent higher than expected. This year's profit puts the Alerus Center's retained earnings at nearly $330,000, rescuing it from half a million dollars in negative earnings. Of the last 11 years, only four other years recorded positive earnings.
