Massachusetts Smaller Companies 2012-4 Three Year Audited Earnings Up 38 Times From 2008-10 Three Year Audited Earnings ..... Driven In Part By President Obama, Former Governor Deval Patrick, Massachusetts US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey, Massachusetts Democratic US House Members and the US Fed

From a very thorough review of SEC filings, I found a huge number of 95 Companies, predominately Technology and Biotechnology and other Health Care ones, headquartered in the highly entrepreneurial, intensely research-focused State of Massachusetts with Stock Market Capitalizations now of more than $1 bil and with 2014 Audited Financial Statements filed with the SEC.

Eleven of these 95 Massachusetts Companies have Stock Market Capitalizations now of more than $20 bil.  The Total Audited Earnings of these 11 have been on fire in the two most recent years, with 2014 Audited Earnings up 60% over 2012, as you can see in the below chart:

There are a very large number of 84 Somewhat Smaller Massachusetts Companies with Stock Market Capitalizations now of between $1 bil and $20 bil.

So just how have these 84 Somewhat Smaller Massachusetts Companies done on the earnings front before, during and after the 2008 financial meltdown?  Just spectacular off-the-charts earnings improvement.

The Total Audited Net Income from Continuing Operations of these 84 Somewhat Smaller Massachusetts Companies for the 3 years 2012-14 Combined was $11.968 bil, an increase of an incredibly off-the-charts 3,795% over the $0.307 bil comparable Total Earnings in the 3 years 2008-2010 Combined.

So if the question to answer is how much better off are these Somewhat Smaller Massachusetts Companies recently than they were during their five-year earlier 2008-2010 fiscal years, the answer is 38 times better, or $11.7 bil better, as audited earnings under US generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) are measured by the very prestigious US accounting profession.

There has been something upwardly explosive happening with the Audited Earnings of the many Somewhat Smaller Massachusetts Companies and among others, President Obama, Former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick, Massachusetts US Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey, Massachusetts US Democratic House Members Richard Neal, James McGovern, Niki Tsongas, Joseph Kennedy, Katherine Clark, Seth Moulton, Michael Capuano, Stephen Lynch and William Keating, and the US Fed have all undoubtedly helped here.

Below here are the reported US GAAP Audited Net Income (Losses) of each of  these 84 Somewhat Smaller Massachusetts Companies for all of their fiscal years reported from 2008 through 2014:
