The first few years were profitable and in the second year of ownership Jonsubpaid a dividend  of $ 500,000 to Normpar, but the last two yers have not been good as Jonsub has realized non and capital losses. It is unlikely that Jonsub will generate sufficient income to absorb the losses in the foreseeable future. However, Normpar expects to genetate sufficient business income and taxable capital gains to absorb all of Jonsub's losses.
