Indiana Companies 2013 Audited Earnings Up 2,486% over 2008

Since Indiana Governor Mike Pence is now negotiating with US Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell on the best way acceptable to all parties to get many of the State of Indiana's uninsured citizens to obtain health care insurance coverage, I think it would be helpful in several posts to research how Indiana's companies, hospitals and the overall State of Indiana's economy have been doing financially.

In this first post I will be addressing Indiana Companies audited earnings.

From a very thorough review of SEC filings, I found 53 Companies headquartered in the State of Indiana with Stock Market Capitalizations now of at least $100 mil, or for non-public companies filing with the SEC with Total Stockholders' Equity of at least $100 mil, and also with annual audited financial statements filed with the SEC covering all years from 2007 to 2013.

So just how have these 53 largest Indiana Companies done on the earnings front before, during and after the late 2008 financial meltdown?  Just incredibly well.

The Total Audited Net Income from Continuing Operations of these 53 largest Indiana Companies was $14.248 bil in the Most Recent Year 2013, nearly 25 times the comparable financial meltdown year earnings in 2008 of $0.551 bil.

In addition, the Total Audited Earnings of these 53 largest Indiana Companies in 2013 of $14.248 bil were up an impressive 53% over the comparable earnings in 2007 of $9.330 bil, which was the peak year earnings before the disastrous effects of the 2008 financial meltdown hit......these Indiana Companies not only recouped the earnings they lost with the financial meltdown, but they also added another 53% of earnings.

So if the question to answer is how much better off are Indiana Companies now than they were during the financial meltdown year of 2008, the answer is nearly 25 times better as audited earnings are measured by the very prestigious US accounting profession.

There has been something nearly miraculous happening with Indiana Companies Audited Earnings in the past five plus years, and among others, Indiana Governors Mitch Daniels and Mike Pence as well as the Indiana State Legislature have all undoubtedly helped here. 

Below here are the Audited Net Income (Losses) of each of these 53 largest Indiana Companies for Fiscal Year Ends (FYEs) 2013, 2012, 2011, 2009, 2008 and 2007:
