Earnings growth for U.S. companies is becoming scarcer. One way for stock investors to find more of it—along with promising stocks—is to identify companies whose true earnings power is temporarily obscured by accounting quirks.
Wall Street analysts predict that earnings during the current quarter will rise just 3% from a year ago. Less than three months ago, they said 10%. The slowdown makes sense. Revenues have all but stalled, rising just 1% last quarter, and profit margins already are near all-time highs, so easy opportunities for earnings growth through cost-cutting are gone.
To find hidden potential for higher earnings, compare earnings with another measure of prosperity called free cash flow. That's the real money companies pocket each quarter after their spending. Earnings, on the other hand, are a repackaging of the numbers to reflect how much companies would make if, among other things, their costs always corresponded neatly with the resulting revenues in the same time periods (what accountants call the "matching principle").
Over long time periods free cash flow and earnings should tell similar stories, but in the short run they can vary sharply for a long list of reasons, and investors should watch these differences. Research by University of California, Berkeley accounting professor Richard Sloan and others has shown that, when a company's earnings greatly exceed its free cash flow, it's more likely than not to produce disappointing earnings growth and stock returns. But when free cash flow greatly exceeds earnings, it could be a promising sign.
Consider Apple aapl -0.4822499594747933% Apple Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD122.785 -0.595 -0.4822499594747933% /Date(1438196299973-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 18779462 P/E Ratio 14.191108545034641 Market Cap 703601845420.99 Dividend Yield 1.692501729118353% Rev. per Employee 2409500 More quote details and news » (ticker: AAPL). A customer who shows up at one of its stores and pays cash for a phone may consider the transaction over in 15 minutes. But until 2009, regulators considered that the start of a multi-year relationship, whereby Apple promised to supply not just a phone but also continuing software enhancements. So the company could book phone sales only gradually. Then the rule changed, and Apple's fiscal 2009 revenue, originally reported as $5.7 billion, was restated as $8.2 billion. Apple would have made just as much money without the accounting change, but investors watching earnings wouldn't have seen it as quickly.
Sometimes a big difference between free cash flow and earnings can help explain a stock price that otherwise seems nonsensical. For example, Red Hat RHT 0.381049155341039% Red Hat Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD79.03 0.3 0.381049155341039% /Date(1438196280147-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 497645 P/E Ratio 76.69902912621359 Market Cap 14445617340.4886 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 252978 More quote details and news » (RHT) recently traded at 40 times next year's earnings estimate, which is around triple the price of the typical U.S. company. But it's more of a subscription-services company than a simple software seller, so the company often collects cash up front for new business but books revenue a little bit at a time. That makes its free cash flow a leading indicator of its earnings, says RBC Capital Markets analyst Matthew Hedberg. The stock goes for 23 times next year's free cash flow forecast—still pricey, but not quite ludicrous.
FOR THE FOUR COMPANIES LISTED in our table below, a peek at free cash flows makes the ones with higher price/earnings ratios look like good deals and the ones with lower ones look like steals.
Travel booker Expedia expe -1.1010543995521134% Expedia Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD105.99 -1.18 -1.1010543995521134% /Date(1438196299147-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 603309 P/E Ratio 30.730434782608697 Market Cap 13670819310.4563 Dividend Yield 0.6791171477079796% Rev. per Employee 326003 More quote details and news » (EXPE) collects cash when customers make their plans but makes payments after customers have traveled. That results in earnings that understate the company's growth and overstate its valuation. At $60, the stock trades at 19 times this year's earnings forecast of $3.11. But free cash flow is projected to total $3.91 a share this year—and rise above $6 over two years. Raymond James analyst Aaron Kessler, who rates the stock Outperform, says international bookings are growing nicely and Expedia is benefiting from its technology investments.

Microsoft msft 2.6687251874724307% Microsoft Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD46.55 1.21 2.6687251874724307% /Date(1438196298149-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 22019172 P/E Ratio 31.863013698630137 Market Cap 363944181224.823 Dividend Yield 2.6655202063628547% Rev. per Employee 731094 More quote details and news » (MSFT) sells for 10 times projected earnings for its current fiscal year running through June 2013–and eight times free cash flow. One reason for the low price is that desktop computing, where Microsoft's programs have long been dominant, is giving way to online programs accessed by cheap, portable devices, where Microsoft is only one of several strong competitors. But that shift isn't new, and Microsoft's revenue and earnings are still growing. Its net cash balance, combined with yearly free cash flow, works out to enough money to buy the entire company over the next six or seven years. Shares yield 3.4%.
For a more direct bet on the shift away from desktop computing, look to EMC EMC -0.29873039581777444% EMC Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD26.7 -0.08 -0.29873039581777444% /Date(1438196299139-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 7359310 P/E Ratio 21.860655737704917 Market Cap 51551501321.7926 Dividend Yield 1.7247844019497562% Rev. per Employee 351914 More quote details and news » (EMC), which has "essentially morphed into a cloud-storage holding company," according to Amit Daryanani, an analyst at RBC. The stock looks like a decent deal at 15 times this year's projected earnings, but a much better one at less than 12 times free cash flow. One reason for the difference between the two measures is that the actual cash the company is spending on business investments each year is less than the accounting charges it's taking to its earnings for past investments. That makes free cash flow a better gauge of current results.
Terex tex 3.145386766076421% Terex Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD22.135 0.675 3.145386766076421% /Date(1438196293043-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2019779 P/E Ratio 11.298052411542775 Market Cap 2255445871.03272 Dividend Yield 1.0830324909747293% Rev. per Employee 350485 More quote details and news » (TEX) makes machines that pave roads, lift shipping containers, elevate workers and much else. Its revenue plunged by more than half during the 2009 recession, and earnings turned sharply negative. Today, the company is riding a cautious recovery, while restructuring to reduce its costs and free more cash. Earnings are expected to just top $2 a share this year, making the stock, at $27, seem reasonably priced. But free cash flow in 2012 is pegged at $3.89 a share–and earnings are expected to grow that large in three years' time. Investors who buy now for the free cash have a good chance of selling at a nice profit later on to those who are watching the earnings.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
07 Apr 2012 14:28 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, United States
It is a low profile organisation with connections to high-profile corporations. Among its funders and board members are Exxon Mobil, Walmart and Pfizer. The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) describes itself as a non-partisan public-private partnership promoting limited government and individual liberty. Critics say it is a powerful ultra-conservative group behind controversial state laws including the "Stand Your Ground" law used by George Zimmerman, a neighbourhood watch volunteer, to justify his shooting of an unarmed teen, Trayvon Martin.
They also accuse the organisation of pursuing a coordinated effort across the US to push for voter-ID laws that civil rights groups say disinfranchise millions of minorities and low-income voters.
This week, Coca Cola and Kraft foods severed their ties with ALEC after a boycott campaign by the rivil rights group Color Of Change. Anger over the group's influence on a range of legislation affecting the environment, education and labour rights has been a major issue among Occupy protesters across the country.
But ALEC members say the group does nothing more than bring together members of the general public, private sector and federal government to develop policy.
Debbie Lesko, Arizona's ALEC chairman and Arizona state representative, described the group's activities in December:"They get together so that we can share information and educate each other about major issues such as improving education, pension reform and fiscal responsibility. It's a great organisation. It's been around for years and I find it to be very helpful and educational. It's basically just model legislation. Nothing is really drafted there. We don't draft any legislation. We discuss legislation that may have already been used in other states." Who is behind the American Legislative Exchange Council and what makes them so influencial in US politics?
To discuss this we are joined by Lisa Graves, the executive director of the progressive non-profit investigative reporting group, Center for Media and Democracy; Rashad Robinson, the executive director of the civil rights group Color of Change; and Nicole Neily, an ALEC supporter and a senior fellow at the Independent Women's Forum, a non-profit, conservative organisation.
"No-one thinks they are getting together for some sandwiches and tea to talk about legislation. They're drafting model legislation they are pushing out around the country. They share a different vision for democracy, they share a different vision of who should be able to vote in elections and who should be able to participate, and the type of laws that keep us safe in our communities."

PROVO — So, what is it with Jimmer and whistles?
Is the challenge for MWC officials to manage a game with Fredette affecting how games are called?
With the increased Jimmer attention are we seeing heightened scrutiny, escalating defender physicality and swelling criticism of favoritism by opposing coaches mixed with Jimmer's own increased animation after no calls?
I don't like making drama over officiating. It is a tough and thankless job and generally it isn't the deciding factor. Attacking officials is generally an excuse by those who lose. I don't attack it here, but I do examine.
Are we seeing trends with Jimmer?
For Fredette, it's getting more and more physical, and he doesn't like it.
In the last few games, Fredette has broken an admired trait of not complaining to officials. That may bring a collective reaction from officiating crews as word spreads that he's drawing negative attention to them personally. They don't like it.
It is a huge challenge to call a game with a player like Fredette. He draws a lot of physical defensive attention from baseline to baseline. Multiple defenders come at him and his remarkable ability to move with the ball allows him to get past one guy, but another defender comes crashing toward him at full speed.
He is good at creating contact from an opponent while dribbling and shooting. There are plenty of calls that could go either way.
Officiating is a headache.
I thought Utah coach Jim Boylen framed it nicely on Saturday:
"He (Fredette) gets to the line on a couple of plays where I think they are hard plays to ref," he said. "He's a hard guy to officiate. There were two of the harder guys to officiate in the league on the floor tonight.
"Jiggy Watkins plays through contact as well as anybody. He gets bumped, he doesn't get knocked off his line, even (so) at times, I think he gets fouled. I think Jimmer is hard to referee because he's got guys on his hip a lot and he's so strong and he's able to elevate over people. It is a very difficult game to officiate. Very difficult."
At the end of the Utah game, official Mike Reed asked BYU coach Dave Rose to take Fredette out because of the physical play. Fredette's emotional reaction and the score made it necessary.
"Games are officiated differently," said Rose. "That's one of the keys to a great player is to adjust to how the game is called. I think Jimmer's done a great job of that. I think tonight, Utah did a terrific job of guarding him and Jimmer did a great job responding, making winning plays. But he (Reed) just wanted to make sure the game ended on a positive note."
Rose and Fredette expect more physical play. Some BYU fans see it as a mugging.
"Jimmer and I talk about that all the time," Rose said Monday. "What I think the difference is is that we're playing teams now for the second time. That in itself can cause a little more frustration in any sport at any level. You have to adjust to each individual referee crew that is going to call the game and then accept how it's being called and then adjust and play from there.
"He'll see a lot of players in a lot of situations throughout the league and maybe become a little more chippy."
Do officiating crews decide before a game how it will be called? Do officials react to a player's stardom? If a player becomes whiny, do officials tell themselves it's going to be hard for the guy to get a call or two until he knocks it off?

Frank Thomas is Suing Reebok Over Re-Released 'Big Hurt' Shoes
If you're a fan of athletic shoes, you've probably noticed that Reebok has been killing it lately. The famous shoe company has released several throwback sneakers, including Shaquille O'Neal's 'Shaqnosis' kicks and Shawn Kemp's 'Kamikazes'.
Another famous pair of throwbacks they recently re-released belonged to Frank Thomas. Well, kind of. As it turns out, Thomas is suing Reebok over his famous 'Big Hurt' shoes. Why? Because he wasn't cut in.
Thomas is taking his former shoe company to court on the grounds that he wasn't told about or compensated for the re-release of his sneakers.
Thomas originally signed with Reebok back in 1995 and stayed on through 1998.
The hall-of-fame slugger is asking a judge to block future sales of the shoes and for compensation from sales thus far.
It does seem kind of sketchy that Reebok would just start reproducing these shoes without telling Thomas. You'd think that he'd be due at least a small portion of sales. After all, they're HIS shoes.
Hopefully this whole ordeal gets worked out. Reebok doesn't have a ton of high profile athletes endorsing it these days, so this recent string of throwback releases was a great idea. When I saw the Shaqnosis shoes on TNT one night, it was the first time I'd thought about Reebok sneakers in a long time. The old school kicks remind us that they used to come out with some decent designs back in the day.
Now we'll just have to hope they can work out a deal with the Big Hurt.

- gibberellin sensitivity
The gene lk in peas (Pisum sativum L.) confers the erectoides phenotype. This phenotype possesses much reduced internode and petiole lengths and is practically insensitive to applied GA1, compared with Lk plants. Application of the ethylene synthesis inhibitor, aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG), resulted in increased internode elongation and increased GA-sensitivity in lk plants, but not in the Lk line, L53. The ethylene-releasing compound, ethephon, had the reverse effect when applied to the Lk line, L58, reducing internode length and GA-sensitivity. Ethylene production was higher in lk segregates than in Lk segregates under the conditions used, and the shoot anatomy of lk segregates was consistent with these higher ethylene levels.
These results suggest that the phenotypic effects of gene lk may be due, at least in part, to increased ethylene production in erectoides plants. However, AVG application to lk plants did not produce true phenocopies of comparable lk plants and ethephon application to Lk plants did not produce the erectoides phenotype. Further work is therefore required to determine whether the effect of the gene lk on ethylene production is the primary action of this gene or merely a secondary consequence.

Digital Transformation is the ultimate goal of cloud computing and related initiatives. The phrase is certainly not a precise one, and as subject to hand-waving and distortion as any high-falutin' terminology in the world of information technology. Yet it is an excellent choice of words to describe what enterprise IT—and by extension, organizations in general—should be working to achieve. Digital Transformation means: handling all the data types being found and created in the organizat...

IMEC forms 'more-than-CMOS' alliance with TSMC
May 11, 2010 // Peter Clarke
Luc van den Hove, president and chief executive officer of IMEC (Leuven, Belgium), has said the research institute has entered into a partnership with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (Hsinchu, Taiwan) to develop hybrid "more-than-Moore" process technologies and pass them on to the Taiwanese foundry.
Although IMEC works with most leading chip makers on the leading-edge of CMOS materials and process development, there is tremendous scope for creating application-driven variants of CMOS at more mature nodes.
Speaking at the International Electronics Forum in Dresden, Germany, van den Hove said IMEC would develop CMORE platforms for specific applications. Hybrid processes could mix logic and memory with thermal, chemical and optical sensors, with bioelectronic interfaces, with photonics, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and RF circuits in BiCMOS processes.
While IMEC has created and is expanding a 300-mm pilot wafer fab for leading-edge research, it has an older 200-mm pilot line that is suitable for developing so-called CMORE processes.
"We will develop CMORE platforms for specific applications and have a partnership with for TSMC to take on the processes from there," van den Hove told attendees at the conference.
Van den Hove said that for a major foundry like TSMC there was a chicken-or-egg problem in that it could not develop specialized processes until it was sure of volume demand and volume demand would not materialize without the existence of the process. IMEC was in a position to break that impasse and to work with customers in low volumes before passing the process over to TSMC as and when higher volumes of chips are needed.
Finding the sweet spot where an application-specific process appeals to a large number of customers, or at least a few customers who foresee high volumes, will be the key. Such areas could include medical electronics, consumer interfaces or instrumentation.
IMEC has appointed Kees den Otter, former president of TSMC Europe BV, to the position of vice president of emerging business, an apparent indication that IMEC intends to drive its CMORE program on a commercial basis.

ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey's opposition accused the government on Wednesday of stalling tactics to avoid potentially damaging revelations from an inquiry into alleged corruption emerging in the run-up to an August presidential election.
Tayyip Erdogan, currently prime minister, is widely expected to win the Aug. 10 vote. But he could do without the corruption scandal re-emerging after it dogged his administration for months earlier this year.
A spokesman for his ruling AK Party rejected the idea that the government was holding up the inquiry and said the process should not be rushed.
Erdogan has cast the scandal, which led to the departure of four cabinet ministers, as an attempt by political rivals to unseat him. He responded with purges in which thousands of police and hundreds of judges and prosecutors were reassigned.
A parliamentary commission set up in May to study prosecutors' files alleging wrongdoing by the four ministers, who denied the accusations, has hit a series of snags and only met for the first time last week after delays in nominating its members.
This week its chairman, Hakki Koylu of Erdogan's ruling AK Party, sent the prosecutors' dossier back unread because it failed to include index pages.
"This is absurd... It would not prevent us from studying the reports in any way," Riza Turmen, a member of parliament for the opposition CHP who sits on the committee, told Reuters.
"What the government wants is to prevent the disclosure of the reports until after the elections," he said.
The scandal and Erdogan's reaction - including tightening internet controls and imposing a two-week ban on Twitter, as well as the purges - sparked an opposition outcry and criticism from the European Union and United States, among others.
Erdogan said the scandal was part of an attempted "judicial coup" by U.S.-based Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen, a former ally turned foe who wields influence in the police and judiciary. Gulen has denied any involvement.
AK Party spokesman Huseyin Celik said that the government was not stalling and that the index pages requested by the commission chairman were necessary.
"No one should expect an expedited investigation in a critical matter such as this," he told reporters in Ankara, adding the government had nothing to fear.
"There is nothing that could come up (in these files) that could upset us prior to the presidential election. If there was such a thing it would already have come out into the open, many times," Celik said.
The scandal erupted in December when scores of people, including businessmen close to Erdogan and three ministers' sons, were detained by police investigating the award of illegal building permits in Istanbul and an alleged smuggling ring helping Iran exploit a loophole in the West's sanctions regime.
In May, newly appointed prosecutors dropped cases against 60 suspects, seen as a significant victory for the government in its efforts to stamp out the probe.
Opposition MPs have raised concern that the AK Party's parliamentary majority will undermine the commission's work.
"If this commission turns into a commission of exoneration the reputation of parliament will be hurt, and we don't want to become a tool for this," Bengi Yildiz, commission member for the pro-Kurdish HDP opposition party, told Reuters.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."
- St. John Paul II
A bit more food for thought…

For your consideration…
"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."
- C.S. Lewis
More food for thought:
"I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history."

Not that Bill Owens -- the other Bill Owens!
On the left: Colorado's Bill Owens. On the right: New York's Bill Owens. No, they're not the same person.
Just heard from a sharp-eyed viewer who saw a familiar face on the Today show this morning -- one who had no business being there. Political reporter Chuck Todd was discussing a New York state congressional election taking place today, which pits a Democrat named Bill Owens against Doug Hoffman, a candidate for the Conservative Party. Problem is, the photo of Bill Owens that popped up featured a different guy entirely -- the one who was twice elected Colorado's governor. As a Republican.
No, they aren't related -- either by blood or ideology.
Update, 12:10 p.m.: A short time ago, Colorado's Bill Owens sat down with Channel 9's Adam Schrager to discuss (and joke about) that New York-based Bill Owens, and the confusion between them. Here's what he had to say:
"I wondered when I saw my own picture, I said, 'Why the hell would I want to be a congressman from update New York when I've been governor of Colorado... A lot of my friends around the country have been e-mailing and texting me wondering, 'Did you move?' 'Have you lost your mind?' The answer's no to all those things.
"It's something to laugh at. The more I've been seeing this impostor named Bill Owens I've been wondering when somebody would make that mistake... I'm not seeking any more publicity or notoriety, so for a number of reasons, I'm hoping Bill Owens loses this election."
