1 Leadership in Alternative Asset Management Second Quarter Report, March 31, 2006

2

3 REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS ( IAM or the Corporation ) is pleased to present to shareholders the financial results of the Corporation for the second quarter of fiscal Assets under management and committed capital ("AUM") remained unchanged at March 31, 2006 from year end (September 30, 2005) at $2.9 billion. No significant new assets were raised during the quarter however AUM are up approximately $0.2 billion since March 31, The Corporation's financial position at March 31, 2006 remained strong with $15.2 million in cash and $1.8 million in debt. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2006 were $9.0 million compared with $4.9 million in the same period of fiscal Included in the revenues are performance fees of $3.6 million compared with $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, During the quarter, $3.2 million in performance fees were realized in respect of the value added to a 350,000 square foot, 10 storey building in central Toronto, which has been managed by Greiner-Pacaud/Hamilton Inc. for 8 years. The remaining $0.4 million of performance fees realized in the quarter were generated by the Hedge Funds operations of BluMont Capital. Core management fees increased from $4.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 to $5.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 due to increased activity at both the Asset Management and Hedge Funds operations of the Corporation. At BluMont, management fees increased approximately $0.1 million and at the Asset Management operations, management fees increased approximately $0.2 million. The Asset Management operations reported operating income of $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 versus breakeven results in the comparable period of fiscal Without the net performance fees, the Asset Management operations would have reported an operating loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 of $0.3 million. This operating loss is due to increased marketing expenses in two divisions and also no closing fees during the quarter in the private debt division. This is a matter of timing as approximately $65 million has already been deployed in the third quarter to date with committed closing fees received. The Hedge Funds operations reported an operating loss of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 versus an operating loss of $0.4 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2005, an improvement due to increased AUM. Two BluMont Man products were marketed during the quarter. The first, a prospectus based product, the BluMont Man Alternative Yield Fund closed in March raising $21.9 million. The second, the BluMont Man-IP 220 Series 3 Notes, closed on April 6, 2006 raising $52.3 million. BluMont intends to build on these successes and, with Man Investments, is considering launching a new note. In addition, BluMont has plans to offer a prospectus based hedge fund managed by some of the leading hedge fund managers in Canada. The Asset Management group's focus is on the deployment of committed capital in private debt and real estate and to the marketing of new funds in private equity. A semi-annual cash dividend of $0.025 per common share was paid to shareholders of record on January 17, We are pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has approved an increase in the annual dividend from $0.05 per common share to $0.07 per common share payable in cash semi-annually ($0.035 per common share). A cash dividend of $0.035 per common share will be made in late June. We thank you for your continued support.

4 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS This section provides management s discussion and analysis ("MD&A") of the financial condition of IAM as at March 31, 2006 compared with September 30, 2005, and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared with the corresponding period in fiscal This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the MD&A in IAM s first quarter fiscal 2006 report and the 2005 Annual Report. This MD&A is prepared as of April 30, These reports and other filings by IAM are on SEDAR at IAM reports on two business segments: Asset Management and Hedge Funds. Hedge Funds comprise the operations of BluMont Capital Inc. ( BluMont ) in which IAM has a 46.1% ownership. BluMont is a TSX Venture Exchange listed company and information on BluMont, additional to that shown herein, can be accessed on SEDAR. This MD&A may contain forward-looking statements on the Corporation's business, strategies, opportunities and future financial results. These statements are not promises or guarantees and are based on assumptions and estimates which are subject to many different risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results to be significantly different from those derived from the forward-looking statements. The reader should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which are presented as of April 30, BUSINESS REVIEW IAM is an alternative asset investment management company offering high quality alternative asset class management to institutional, pension and private clients. The Corporation had assets under management, including committed capital ("AUM") of approximately $2.9 billion at March 31, 2006 which are represented by two business segments, Asset Management which had AUM of approximately $2.1 billion and Hedge Funds with approximately $0.8 billion in AUM. Asset Management Asset Management comprises our real estate investment management, private corporate debt, managed futures and private equity operations with an institutional and high net worth client base. The Corporation's products are mostly pools of assets managed by the Corporation for investors and the life of each pool of assets can range up to twelve years. Typically, the Corporation develops and structures each investment product and then markets for commitments over a number of years. For some types of pools, the Corporation receives fees only when the committed capital is deployed and assets are being managed whereas on other pools the Corporation receives fees on the committed capital. Generally, there is little or no liquidity for the investors during the term of a pool and the pool can be liquidated earlier than scheduled only in exceptional circumstances. Hedge Funds Hedge Funds comprise the retail hedge fund activities under BluMont in which IAM has a 46.1% ownership. BluMont provides hedge fund products to Canadian retail investors by its sales force distributing these products throughout Canada using an extensive financial advisor distribution network. BluMont's hedge fund products can be categorized between those products for which BluMont's investment management team manages all or some of the fund's AUM ("manufacturer") and those hedge fund products where the investment management team does not manage any of the fund's AUM ("distributor"). Manufactured AUM typically generate net fees to BluMont which are higher (as a percentage of AUM) than those that are generated when BluMont's role is principally that of distributor.

5 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT, INCLUDING COMMITTED CAPITAL ("AUM") March 31, September 30, March 31, ($ millions) Asset Management $ 2,148.3 $ 2,088.2 $ 2,152.4 Hedge Funds Total $ 2,932.3 $ 2,872.5 $ 2,818.9 AUM at March 31, 2006 remained relatively unchanged since September 30, BluMont had a net gain in AUM of approximately $32.6 million in the quarter including the closing of one BluMont Man product. A second BluMont Man product closed on April 6 raising $52.3 million which is not reflected in the table above. Included in AUM is approximately $0.7 billion of committed capital ($0.8 billion as at September 30, 2005) on which the Corporation does not currently earn revenue, but will do so provided this committed capital is deployed. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenues were $8,951,991 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 compared with $4,944,971 in the same period of fiscal 2005 due to both higher management fees and performance fees realized in the latest quarter. There was an increase in management fees to $5,040,757 from $4,669,283 reported in the three months ended March 31, Performance fees were $3,550,150 in the quarter, of which $3.2 million were fees in respect of the value added from a 350,000 square foot, 10 storey building in central Toronto, which has been managed by Greiner- Pacaud/Hamilton Inc. for 8 years. The balance of performance fees realized in the quarter were generated by the Hedge Funds operations at BluMont.

6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) Selected financial information Three-Month Period Six-Month Period Ended March 31, Ended March 31, Revenues $ 8,951,991 $ 4,944,971 $ 20,697,716 $ 13,774,232 Performance fees, included in revenues above $ 3,550,150 $ 99,783 $ 10,248,352 $ 4,471,534 Net performance fees (1) $ 1,002,637 $ 37,833 $ 4,147,730 $ 1,881,447 Operating income (loss) (Note 7) (2) Asset Management $ 596,402 $ (12,154) $ 935,633 $ (16,386) Hedge Funds (180,268) (433,017) 1,591,409 1,083, ,134 (445,171) 2,527,042 1,066,775 Stock-based compensation (53,011) (211,705) (98,777) (305,058) Income (loss) before income taxes $ 363,123 $ (656,876) $ 2,428,265 $ 761,717 Net income (loss) $ 244,823 $ (259,910) $ 883,744 $ 264,160 Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share $0.01 $(0.01) $0.04 $0.01 (1) Net performance fees are calculated as performance fees revenue less investment adviser, service fees and expenses paid relating to performance fees revenue earned. (2) Operating income is a non-gaap financial measure used by the Corporation. This measure is income before income taxes and the deduction of stock-based compensation which is further described in Note 3 of the interim consolidated financial statements. Performance fees are a very important part of the Corporation's revenues. Performance fees of the Asset Management operations are not realized on a regular basis as they are recognized generally towards the end of the life of the pool of assets being managed. Performance fees at the Hedge Funds operations are generally recognized on an annual or semi-annual basis (on June 30 and on December 31) and quarters ending December 31 typically have the highest level of performance fees. The impact on operating income of performance fees depends on the amount of the expenses associated with them. For the Asset Management operations, the net performance fees in the quarter approximated only $0.9 million as the management compensation in Greiner-Pacaud/Hamilton Inc. for the specific long-term project was set in 1998 expressly to provide a significant upside for management while keeping ongoing compensation low. Excluding the net performance fees, the Asset Management operations reported an operating loss of approximately $0.3 million. Marketing expenses were higher in the quarter as a number of new funds were being actively marketed. In addition, there were no closing and associated closing fees revenue in the private debt division during the quarter which affected profitability.

7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) The Hedge Funds operations reported an operating loss of $180,268 in the three months ended March 31, 2006 as BluMont continued to operate at a loss (before reflecting net performance fees) on a day to day basis. These losses were lower than in the comparable quarter of fiscal 2005 as AUM have increased. Selling, general and administration expenses increased from $4,452,075 in the three months ended March 31, 2005 to $5,215,651 in the three months ended March 31, Compensation costs and the ongoing marketing of new private equity and managed futures funds contributed to the increase. Future income taxes increased to $145,953 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from an income tax recovery of $200,618 in the quarter ending March 31, 2005 reflecting the increase in operating income in the current quarter. It is likely that the future tax liability on the Corporation's balance sheet of $1,255,544 will become a cash obligation of the Corporation payable on or before November 30, Over the past quarter, the financial outlook and the risks and uncertainties faced by the Corporation are similar to those described in the 2005 Annual Report updated by the comments in the MD&A of the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL POSITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Consolidated assets were $29.5 million compared with $30.2 million at September 30, Shareholders equity increased from $13.2 million at September 30, 2005 to $13.7 million at March 31, The Corporation s net working capital (excluding future income taxes) increased to $12.9 million at March 31, 2006 from $9.4 million at September 30, 2005 primarily as a result of the net performance fees of approximately $4.1 million realized in the first six months of fiscal In December 2004, BluMont arranged an advance payment of $1.0 million from Man Investments against future fees receivable by BluMont. This prepayment of fees is repayable to Man Investments over the next three years through a reduction of the quarterly fees payable to BluMont by Man Investments. At March 31, 2006, BluMont recorded a loan due to Man Investments of $572,702 as shown in Note 5 of the financial statements. As part of the amended and restated agreement between BluMont and Man Investments effective January 2006, BluMont has agreed to transfer to Man Investments the management contract relating to the BluMont Man Multi-Strategy Fund, which had AUM of approximately $18.9 million as at March 31, In return, Man Investments has agreed to relinquish its rights to amounts due to it after January 31, 2006 in respect of the advance payment of fees. This transaction is subject to receipt by Man Investments of all necessary regulatory approvals and certain other conditions.

12 March 31, 2006 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. Organization (the "Corporation" or "IAM") was incorporated under the laws of Ontario and its common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. The Corporation's principal business is alternative asset investment management. 2. Basis of Presentation The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements have not been reviewed by the Corporation's external auditors. The accounting policies used in the preparation of these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements conform with those presented in Note 2 to the Corporation's September 30, 2005 audited annual consolidated financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements. 3. Stock-Based Compensation and Other Stock-Based Payments The Corporation has established an incentive stock option plan for the executives, key employees, directors and consultants to the Corporation. As at March 31, 2006 and April 30, 2006, there were 1,517,000 common shares (September 30, ,472,000 common shares) reserved for issuance on exercise of stock options. Prior to fiscal year 2005, the Corporation did not recognize any compensation cost for its stock option plan in the consolidated statements of operations and retained earnings. Beginning in fiscal 2005, the Corporation recognized compensation costs for its stock option plan in respect of awards granted on or after October 1, 2002 on a retroactive basis without restatement of prior periods. The stock-based compensation cost in respect of fiscal years 2003 and 2004 totalled $252,306 and has been reflected as a prior period adjustment in fiscal 2005 reducing retained earnings and as a corresponding increase in contributed surplus.

("Man Investments"), a company with which BluMont has a strategic relationship. The amount of $1,000,000 is repayable in equal quarterly amounts of principal and interest over three years out of future fees payable by Man Investments to BluMont and is unsecured. The effective interest rate on the advance is 4.7%.
