Fitch Affirms HealthEast Rev Bonds at 'BBB-'; Outlook Stable Feb 8, 2012 11:27AM

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Fitch Ratings has affirmed the 'BBB-' long-term rating on HealthEast and Controlled Affiliates' (HealthEast) outstanding debt listed below:

--$202,385,000 Washington County Housing & Redevelopment Authority (MN) (HealthEast Project) hospital revenue bonds series 2005;

--$48,622,000 Washington County Housing & Redevelopment Authority (MN) (HealthEast Project) hospital revenue bonds series 1998;

--$14,294,000 St. Paul Housing & Redevelopment Authority (MN) (HealthEast Project) hospital revenue bonds series 1997A & B.

The Rating Outlook is Stable.

SECURITY:

The bonds are secured by a gross revenue pledge and are governed by a master trust indenture that contains various standard business and financial covenants. In addition, there is a mortgage pledge.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

SOLID MARKET POSITION: HealthEast's leading market position in the St. Paul area and the high barriers to entry that exist within Minnesota continues to be a key credit strength.

CONSISTENT OPERATING PERFORMANCE: Operating performance has been solid and consistent since fiscal 2010 with strong performance in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

WEAK LIQUIDITY: Fitch's main credit concern is HealthEast's weak liquidity position with ratios that are below the 'BBB' category medians.

ADEQUATE DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE: With solid operating performance, maximum annual debt service coverage has improved and is adequate but still below the 'BBB' category median ratios.

STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS: HealthEast has significantly invested in its plant, physician alignment strategies, and quality initiatives that should result in further improved financial performance over time.

CREDIT PROFILE:

The 'BBB-' rating affirmation reflects HealthEast's continued solid operating performance, offsetting to some degree its weak liquidity position.

In fiscal 2011 (Aug. 31 year end), operating income was $17.9 million (2% operating margin; excludes $6.5 million impairment of property and equipment) compared to $13.7 million (1.6% operating margin) the prior year. The continued solid operating performance has been driven by management's focus on cost reduction as volume was flat. Through the three months ended Nov. 30, 2011, operating performance was very strong with a 3.2% operating margin compared to 2.5% for the same prior year period. The improved operating performance was driven by a reduction in length of stay and continued non labor expense management. Performance is well ahead of the full fiscal 2012 budget of $18.4 million (2% operating margin), which includes one time meaningful use funds of $7.1 million.

HealthEast's main credit strength is its leading market position in the St. Paul area. In the east metro area of the Twin Cities market, HealthEast captured 38.7% of the discharges of the east metro area hospitals, followed by Regions Hospital with 27.8% and United Hospital (part of Allina Hospitals and Clinics, rated 'AA-' by Fitch) with 27.7%. Service area characteristics are favorable due to lower unemployment rates compared to the nation and above average income levels. HealthEast has significantly invested in several initiatives to secure and grow its market position.

These initiatives include upgrading its physical plant, expanding outpatient clinic locations, pursuing physician alignment relationships, and investing in process improvements to improve quality through measured outcomes. HealthEast is the only system in the Twin Cities to have all private patient rooms. Capital expenditures are beginning to return to a more normalized level after spending over 2 times (x) depreciation expense from fiscal 2008-2010. Total capital spending (routine and strategic) are projected at $37.9 million for fiscal 2012 and $32 million for fiscal 2013 (below 2x depreciation expense) and includes spending on its electronic health record, which continues to buoy operating performance via a more efficient and clinically aligned operating platform. HealthEast's investments in quality have totaled approximately $10 million a year and are projected at the same level for fiscal 2012.

Physician alignment has been a key area of focus with relationships ranging from medical directorships to employment depending on the service line. Total employed physicians have increased to approximately 330 with key additions in cardiovascular and spine.

Fitch's main credit concern is HealthEast's weak liquidity position, which provides HealthEast limited financial flexibility. Liquidity ratios have remained stable and future liquidity growth is expected to be pressured due to ongoing quality initiatives and pension requirements. At Nov. 30, 2011 days cash on hand, cushion ratio, and cash-to-debt were 55.9 days, 4.8x, and 47.3% compared to the 'BBB' category median ratios of 128.6 days, 8.8x, and 79.8%, respectively.

As of Nov. 30, 2011, HealthEast's total outstanding debt is $278.5 million and is 100% fixed rate. HealthEast does not have any outstanding swaps. Maximum annual debt service (MADS) coverage is adequate at 2.1x for fiscal 2011 and 1.8x for fiscal 2010 and improved to 2.4x for the first quarter 2012. Fitch used MADS of $26.5 million, which is for the system and occurs in 2017. Actual debt service coverage in fiscal 2011 was solid at 3.0x.

The Stable Outlook reflects Fitch's expectation that HealthEast will continue to maintain solid profitability. Given HealthEast's weak liquidity, stable operating profitability is imperative to maintaining the current rating. A deterioration in profitability or liquidity metrics could result in downward rating pressure.

HealthEast operates 509 staffed beds at three acute care hospitals in downtown St. Paul (St. Joseph), Maplewood (St. Johns) and Woodbury (Woodwinds), as well as a 140-bed long-term acute care hospital, and various outpatient imaging and surgery operations. The system also employs over 300 physicians practicing within its hospitals and throughout the community. At fiscal year-end 2011, HealthEast reported total operating revenue of $877 million. HealthEast provides annual and quarterly disclosure via the MSRB's EMMA system and Digital Assurance Certification (DAC). Interim disclosure includes detailed financial statements, volume statistics, payor mix, and management discussion and analysis.

Kia Dreams Big With Track'ster Concept Car Unveil at 2012 Chicago Auto Show Feb 8, 2012 11:25AM

CHICAGO, Feb. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- What happens when a dream becomes reality?  In the case of the Kia Track'ster concept unveiled at today's Chicago Auto Show, car enthusiasts begin to salivate.  Amid the driving rhythm of heavy-metal music, smoke and blinding lights, Kia Motors America (KMA) took the wraps off a performance-oriented three-door Soul coupe concept that hints at what could possibly be the future of Kia's wildly successful Soul.

To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click: http://www.multivu.com/mnr/54616-kia-dreams-big-unveils-track-ster-concept-car-at-2012-chicago-auto-show

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120208/MM48823 )

"The idea was to make the Track'ster tough looking, like a bulldog," said Tom Kearns, chief designer for KMA.  "But the car had to be approachable as well.  We wanted to base the car in reality so people instantly knew it was a Soul, but with a lot of attitude.  It had to be a bold interpretation that would change people's conceptions of what a sporty Kia could be."

Mission accomplished.

The bold attitude Kearns refers to starts with the eye-catching Whiteout and Inferno Orange paint scheme.  While the white portrays complex layers and shades that contribute to dramatic depth, the orange is perfectly suited for racing. Kia's signature grille features an air intake slit and is trimmed in lightweight carbon fiber.  Smoothly integrated head lights sweep back suggestively over the sculpted front-wheel arches.  The deeply recessed lenses echo the trapezoid themes found throughout the Track'ster and are accented with compelling LEDs.

Most striking up front is the Track'ster's lower intake grille.  Flanked by immense LED driving lights with billet aluminum surrounds, the Track'ster is capable of swallowing prodigious amounts of air to keep the engine running cool even under the most grueling conditions.  The lower valance, trimmed in carbon fiber and accented with Inferno Orange, rides just inches off the ground and lends to the car's menacing stance.

The Track'ster is not just another pretty face; it has a body to match. Sculpted surfaces seem to flow into each other naturally.  The flanks are smooth but accented with well-defined wheel enclosures.  Tucked beneath the Track'ster's hips are custom HRE-K1 monoblock billet performance wheels that were a joint effort of Kia's California design team and HRE.  The wheels are wrapped in 245/40-19-inch front and massive 285/35-19-inch rear Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 high-performance tires.  The wheelbase on the concept is stretched to 101.2 inches, almost an inch longer than the production Soul.  As expected on a car with the Track'ster's performance intentions, large 14-inch Brembo vented and cross-drilled disc brakes are embraced by six-piston calipers in front and 13.6-inch discs are paired with four-piston calipers at the rear.

Soul fans will instantly recognize the Track'ster's angled roof, accented with Inferno Orange. Closer inspection reveals this concept, while Soul inspired, is missing the production car's rear doors.  The front doors have been lengthened and adorned with smooth billet push-style handles which echo the racing-inspired billet fuel filler door.  Carbon fiber lower side valances also are accented in Inferno Orange and incorporate functional rear-brake cooling ducts.  The back hatch incorporates a horizontal Inferno Orange "backpack" panel that accentuates the Track'ster's 75.5-inch width, which is more than five inches wider than a production Soul.

With performance as the top priority, the Track'ster rolls into Chicago with a concept drivetrain sure to kick start any driving enthusiast's heart.  KMA's design team dreamed big, but also kept their vision firmly rooted in reality.  A 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine pumps 250 horsepower to the pavement, a 66 percent increase over that of the production Soul. Power is routed to all four wheels via an electronically controlled four-wheel-drive system.  The short-throw six-speed manual transmission is capped with a stubby spherical shift lever.  The Track'ster rides on a lowered sport suspension tuned for track performance.

Opening the driver's door reveals a light and airy interior highlighted with deeply bolstered Inferno Orange suede-covered racing seats.  Granite Gray leather envelops the interior landscape and imparts a feeling of strength and stability.  Granite Gray suede wraps the sport steering wheel and door panels.  Located deep within red-glowing nacelles, the primary instruments are large and easily readable.  Auxiliary vehicle information such as oil temperature and battery voltage is found atop the dash panel while navigation, entertainment and HVAC controls are accessed through a large touch-screen panel located just above the engine Start/Stop push-button.

Behind the front seats is where Track'ster takes a significant step away from its Soul stable mate. The rear seats have been removed and replaced with a fully integrated equipment tray and spare-tire well.  "We saw the Track'ster as a performance-inspired concept that could spend time on the road and racetrack," said Kearns. "The idea was to make the tools and equipment necessary to keep the car performing in top condition easily accessible."  Large paneled bins stow racing gear such as helmets, suits, gloves and tools while emergency supplies are housed within a separate and highly visible Inferno Orange container.  A custom rear strut brace incorporates a quick-release handle to allow for fast wheel changes.

While there are no current plans to produce the Track'ster, Kia's California design center team enthusiastically took on the project.  "Concept cars are icing on the cake," said Kearns.  "They allow KMA's design team to dream about what could be. Whether that dream becomes a reality or not is a separate question."  

Kia's Unprecedented GrowthKia Motors is the one of the world's fastest moving global automotive brands; from 2009-2011 Kia launched more new vehicles in the U.S. than any other automaker, and under the guidance of chief design officer, Peter Schreyer, earned a reputation as an industry leader in automotive styling.  Kia Motors America's full line of fuel-efficient and fun-to-drive cars and CUVs has earned critical acclaim and dramatically increased consumer awareness, perception and consideration for the brand.  In 2011, KMA recorded its 17th consecutive year of market share growth, thanks in part to the largest increase of any major brand in perceived quality[1] and the industry's highest brand loyalty ranking[2].  Kia's U.S.-based manufacturing facility in West Point, Georgia – KMMG – is responsible for the creation of more than 10,000 plant and supplier jobs and builds the company's two best-selling vehicles in the U.S. – the Sorento CUV and Optima midsize sedan[3].  Kia's value and technology-laden 2012 model year lineup also includes the Sportage compact CUV, Soul urban passenger vehicle, Optima Hybrid, Forte compact sedan, Forte 5-door compact hatchback, Forte Koup two-door coupe, all-new Rio and Rio5-door sub-compacts and Sedona minivan.

About Kia Motors America Kia Motors America is the marketing and distribution arm of Kia Motors Corporation based in Seoul, South Korea. KMA offers a complete line of vehicles through more than 755 dealers throughout the United States and serves as the "Official Automotive Partner of the NBA."  In 2011, KMA recorded its best-ever annual sales total and became one of the fastest growing car companies in the U.S. Kia is poised to continue its momentum and will continue to build the brand through design innovation, quality, value, advanced safety features and new technologies.

Poaching, Not Growth, Is in the Cards for Consumer Payments Industry Feb 8, 2012 11:23AM

NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/08/12 -- In the days before the economic new normal, the nation's rising disposable income combined with the displacement of cash and checks served to grow the market for payment products. But for the foreseeable future, according to Packaged Facts' just-released study on "Consumer Payments in the U.S.: Trends Driving the Credit, Debit, and Prepaid Card Industries," organic market growth is just not in the cards.

With household incomes declining even as healthcare costs and student loan debt are rising, the overall payments pie is shrinking, prompting payment providers to base profit growth strategies on taking market share from their competitors. And with that strategy comes a renewed focus on marketing to specific demographics, according to David Sprinkle, publisher of Packaged Facts. Through target marketing, players in the consumer payments industry can optimize the potency of each product-differentiating feature, mastering new payment and communication channels, and building loyalty programs based on cost sharing with merchants to maintain or grow market share.

For example, while mail remains the most commonly used bill pay channel regardless of household income, higher-income households are the heaviest users of online and automatic bill pay. Among consumer credit cards, VISA has its slimmest lead over MasterCard in the case of the highest income earners ($150K or more). Channel preferences similarly vary by levels of educational attainment. Non-high school graduates are the heaviest users of in-person bill pay, while those with graduate degrees are the heaviest users of online payment. But everything is not that simple: as household education levels increase, use of mail and automatic bill payments both increase. Hispanics are the most likely to pay their bills in person, while Asians are the most likely to pay their bills online.

At the same time, as "Consumer Payments in the U.S." emphasizes, payment products are used differently by the generational cohorts. These generational cohorts also use payment channels differently, and many of their behaviors and preferences are driven not only by age and payment experience but again by income and education levels.

The accumulation (or lack thereof) of life and financial experiences gives each generation its own voice, a unique receptivity to marketing messages and preferences for technology and channels. These differences create significant challenges but also creative opportunities for marketers who target cohorts with the style and substance to which each responds.

Millennials, for example, may well be the first generation in America that is truly downwardly mobile. On average, younger workers are earning less than previous generations when they were the same age. They are also facing high rates of unemployment. Add to that $1 trillion in outstanding student loans -- a 900% increase over 1997. Not surprisingly, then, only 37% Millennials have or use credit cards, compared with 62% of adults overall.

Nonetheless, on which credit card are Millennials disproportionately likely to charge it? American Express, which doubles its market share among affluent households. Youth too has its privileges.
