HILTON'S EARNINGS RISE
Riding Strong Business Travel Trend
Hilton Hotels Corp. reported Tuesday that first-quarter profit climbed 63 per cent, driven by strengthening demand from business travellers and various one-time items. Beverly Hills-based Hilton reported net income of $104 million US, or 26 cents per share, for the three months ended March 31, versus a prior-year profit of $64 million, or 16 cents per share. Revenue rose 41 per cent to $1.52 billion from $1.08 billion in the year earlier period.
