CB Richard Ellis | Page 24 Business Outlook In investment sales, we expect the environment to remain weak, but believe we may see modest improvement by year end We anticipate leasing will remain weak until global economies show signs of stabilizing Outsourcing should continue to grow, approaching $2 billion annually Our asset based businesses, Global Investment Management and Development Services, will continue to face significant challenges in the short term due to dropping asset values Our strategy during the downturn remains consistent: • Continue to aggressively manage expenses • Manage covenant compliance risk through actions and negotiation with lenders • Grow market share through aggressive pursuit of new client mandates • Remain prepared with contingency plans
