The quarterly Duke University/CFO Magazine Globalp Business Outlook Surveyasked 1,309 CFOs worldwide abouyt their expectations for the economy. Their answers paint a gloomy picturde for the rest ofthe year. * CFOs in the U.S. and Europe expected employment to shrinkby 5.5 with the unemployment rate in the U.S. seen risin g to perhaps as high as 12 percent in the next 12 Employment in Asia is expected to recedby 1.2 percent.
“Presumably, government programs will offset some ofthesee losses, but even the most optimistic governmen forecasts would reduce the losses by only 2 said Campbell Harvey, founding director of the survey and international business professot at Duke’s Fuqua Schoool of Business. “We’re facing the possibility of anothef 4 millionlost jobs.” * U.S. and European CFOs foreseed capital spending plunging by more than10 percent. In CFOs anticipate a 3 percent decline. * Six in 10 U.S.
companies covered by the survey reporteed having trouble finding credit or acquirinvg credit at a reasonable Among those firms encountering credit 42 percent say the credit markets have gotten worswthis year, while 23 percenty say conditions have * Weak consumer demand and the credirt markets ranked as the top two externaol concerns among U.S. chieff financial officers, with the federal government’s policie coming in third. Among internal CFOs are losing the most sleep over theifr inability to plan due toeconomix uncertainty, managing their capital and liquidity, and maintaining employee morale.
Despitw all the negative indicators, a majority of the CFOs in the Unitex States and Asia reported being more optimistic this quarteer than they were the previous That was not the case in where only 30 percent of the CFOs said they were more compared to the 31 percent who said they wereless optimistic. “Ourf survey carries an important message: Don’t put too much weighgt on the ‘soft’ data like consumer confidence. Recovery requires sustained confidence, and such confidencr is forged by strongereconomic fundamentals,” Harveyt said. “The economic fundamentals –- capital spending, the cost of credi t – are still fundamentalluy troubling.

The finding comes three days after a study found thatCorpuz Christi’s infrastructure will also be affecteed by climate change. “The Socio-Economic Impacty of Sea Level Rise in the GalvestonjBay Region,” commissioned by the and the British Consulate-General estimates that 78 percent of households will be displaced in Galvestonh County. A more aggressive sea level rise could displaces 93 percent of according tothe “Climate change is happening,” said Davide Yoskowitz, co-author of the report and a professorr at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. “It is not a it is a fact.
Sea-leve rise is occurring in Galveston Bay as well as aroundr the Gulfof Mexico, this is anotheer fact. “We need to conside r the socio-economic impact of thesse changes and begin totake long-term sustainable action to get a handler on the rising sea around Galveston in orded to protect the region’w future.” Galveston, Harris and Chambers counties were examinex in the study, which used an economicd model to assess the impacrt of both conservative and aggressive sea level rise estimates over the next 100 years on households, buildings, industriaol and hazardous material sites and water treatmentsz plants.
Under both scenarios, at least 23 public facilities and industriap sites wouldbe impacted. “If we take the very conservativee estimate ofa 0.69 meter sea levek rise in the next 100 years for an Ike-level storm would be estimated to cause an additiona l $1.7 billion in damage due to flooding for the three-countyt region surrounding Galveston Bay, given the economidc conditions of today,” Yoskowitz said. “Tp put that figure in it would equate to the medianj income foralmost 36,000 Texaxs households.

Carolinas HealthCare reduces 1Q loss - Boston Business Journal:
bojony.wordpress.com
Investment losses for the latest quarter totalednearly $101 Chief Financial Officer Greg Gombar anticipatex gains in the financia market in April and May will erase thos e losses. Carolinas HealthCare uses investment earnings forcapital expenditures. That moneg is not used for daily operations. The health-care system hopes negotiations with several lenders will cut its interesr expenses tied to variable debt andhighert bank-liquidity fees. Those fees are about $1 million per Interest expenses in the first quarterwere $21.8 million.
From an operationapl standpoint, Carolinas HealthCare had a strongfirsgt quarter, says Russ Guerin, executivde vice president for business developmen and planning. Net operating revenue climbed 8.6 percent to $1.2 billiohn systemwide. Operating income exceeded $24.5r million. The health-care system saw adjustedr discharges — a calculation that gauges patientactivity — climb 5.2 percenft from a year earlier. Growth withih the health-care system and expense managementf “is the primary driver why we’re above budget significantly,” Guerin says.
Carolinas HealthCarw spent morethan $106 million on capitaol projects in the first Projects include new operating rooms at CMC-NorthEasr and Carolinas Medical Center, an expansion of CMC-Pineville, a new hospitalo at CMC-Lincoln and construction of health-carde pavilions in Steele Creek and Waxhaw, whichb will include free-standing emergency departments. Challenges in the comingh months include managingthe system’s growing bad-deb t and charity-care costs, reducing interest expenses and preparingg for a possible state cut in Medicaird funding, Gombar says. Bad-debt costsd were 12 percent over budget during thefirsg quarter, topping $48 million in the first quarter.
Duringb the same period last year, bad debt was about $43 The health-care system spent more than $770 millioj in community care in includingbad debt, charity care and subsidizinbg Medicare and Medicaid. That equals 18.8 percen t of the health-care system’s net operating ”It’s a trend everybody’s seeing acrosd the country,” Gombar says. “We can’t control how many peoples are uninsured, how many people show up at our doorwithoutf insurance.” North Carolina’s budget woes could results in a cut of up to 15 percenyt for Medicaid. That could equate to $36 millioj in annual losses forCarolinas HealthCare.
“Medicaie cuts are the worst economid benefit cut the state can Gombar says. “It’s painful.” Says “It raises prices for thosre whodo pay. It makes no good business sens e todo that.” Gombar says everg dollar cut from Medicaid eliminates $4 from the Carolinas HealthCare is the largest health-carr system in the Carolinas and the third-largest public systek in the nation. The system leases or manages 25 hospitals. It has more than 40,000 full and part-time employees.
