Cendant posts 24 percent jump in adjusted profits

NEW YORK, April 18 (Reuters) - Real estate and travel franchising giant Cendant Corp. (NYSE:CD - news) posted a
higher than expected 24 percent jump in first-quarter operating profits on Tuesday amid strong growth in its online
operations.

Cendant said it was comfortable with Wall Street's earnings targets for the year on the back of strong quarterly results. The
company had net income, including unusual items, of $69 million, or 9 cents per share for the three month period compared with $362 million, or
43 cents per
share, a year ago.

I don't get it; how is 9 cents a 24% increase over 43 cents?
