02/09/06: AIG Pays $1.6 Billion To Settle Scandal

SUSIE GHARIB: AIG agreed today to pay big bucks to put its legal troubles behind it. The insurance giant will pay $1.6 billion to settle state and Federal regulators to settle charges of fraud, bid-rigging and improper accounting. Excluded from the settlement, AIG`s former powerful CEO Hank Greenberg. Stephanie Dhue reports.

STEPHANIE DHUE, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: The settlement closes a civil lawsuit and a sweeping investigation of AIG by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Justice Department, the New York insurance department and the New York attorney general.

ELIOT SPITZER, NEW YORK STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL: From the highest levels of AIG, there was an intent to misrepresent the financial condition of the company. There were transactions entered into that were false, flagrant violations of state and Federal law designed to misrepresent the financial condition of that company.

DHUE: SEC enforcement Director Linda Thomsen says other charges may still be filed.

LINDA THOMSEN, ENFORCEMENT DIRECTOR, SEC: Our investigation is continuing as to other individuals and entities that may have played a role in these particular transactions and also our sort of broader investigation of insurance and reinsurance products is continuing as well.

DHUE: The settlement does not cover former AIG CEO Hank Greenberg, who is still facing a civil suit in New York. From the $1.6 billion settlement, half -- $800 million -- will go to a restitution fund for AIG shareholders misled by the company`s accounting; $375 million dollars is set aside for AIG policyholders harmed by bid-rigging; $344 million will go to states hurt by AIG`s practice of understating workers` compensation premiums; $100 million will go to New York State and $25 million goes to the Justice Department. In a statement, AIG CEO Martin Sullivan said these settlements are a major step forward in resolving the legal and regulatory issues facing AIG. And it has already implemented a wide range of improvements in our accounting, financial reporting and corporate governance. Analyst Clifford Gallant, whose firm does investment banking business for AIG and who owns or has a family member who owns its stock, says the settlement avoids a criminal charge that would cripple the company.

CLIFFORD GALLANT, INSURANCE ANALYST, KEEFE, BRUYETTE & WOODS: You`ve had a lot of uncertainty at the company, a lot of challenges, a lot of internal looking by everyone there and now I think they`re moving past that. So the settlement I think puts a period at the end of these problems and they can look forward to a better future.

DHUE: But the government investigation will still be a part of AIG`s future. The company says it will cooperate in that probe and will continue to work to give investors a clearer picture of its business dealings in the future. Stephanie Dhue, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, Washington.

02/09/06: One On One With Michael Jackson, CEO, Autonation

SUSIE GHARIB: Profits plunged 53 percent at the nation`s largest dealership of new and used cars. AutoNation said today its fourth quarter earnings fell to $0.28 a share, $0.05 below estimates. Shares fell more than 2 percent on the disappointing news. Joining us now with more about those earnings and the outlook, AutoNation Chairman and CEO Michael Jackson. Mr. Jackson, thank you for coming on the program.

MIKE JACKSON, CHAIRMAN & CEO, AUTONATION: My pleasure, Susie. Good to see you tonight.

GHARIB: Nice to see you as well. You said today that the sales environment was challenging in the fourth quarter. Can you be a little more specific about what happened?

JACKSON: Well, nothing like a little adversity to sometimes test a business model. First, you know, we have a significant portion of our business in Florida and we were dramatically impacted by hurricane Wilma, both from a point of view of physical damage and disruption to the business. That was about $0.04. Then the retail environment was also very tough. Why total industry sales were only slightly off, if you eliminate the fleet business, there was a double digit decline in retail business. That was a payback for the very strong sales over the summer with all the promotions that went on with the employee purchase program. We also had a significant gain in taxes last year, of course which did not reoccur. So if you put it on an apple to apples basis and eliminate the hurricane, we actually increased EPS slightly.

GHARIB: So I can see that really was a tough quarter. How do things look for AutoNation going into this quarter and for the rest of the year? Do you see the retail environment turning around for you?

JACKSON: The expectation for `06 is that the industry will once again sell almost 16 million -- high 16 million if not nearly 17 million units. And that will be for the eighth year in a row. It will be somewhat of a roller coaster ride during the course of the year, but by the end of the year, that`s about where about industry sales are going to come out. We followed our diversified business model approach, redeployed capital in a very discipline way and we feel we`ll average over the years a 10 to 12 percent improvement in EPS.

GHARIB: Now, many of the economists that I talked to on our program are still seeing possibilities of more interest rate hikes for 2006. What impact do you think this is going to have on consumer buying and in particular on buying cars at AutoNation?

JACKSON: There`s no question that rates will go up several more times this year. We have not seen a significant impact on consumer behavior as yet. The rates in a historical perspective are still quite attractive. We`ve got to remember just how low rates were. And now we`re getting back to a point, an equilibrium point. But they`re still very attractive and we still see the consumer in the marketplace and, as I said, the end of the year it will be nearly 17 million units.

GHARIB: We heard from GM this week saying that it`s making some drastic cuts so that it can turn itself around and get back in the black. To what extent are these changes at General Motors impacting AutoNation?

JACKSON: Well, what we have urged General Motors and Ford and to a certain extent Chrysler is to permanently reduce prices, take all these incentives and rebates, put it in the pricing upfront so you have an everyday low price for the consumer. And you can put your marketing dollars behind selling the product and the brand. As the retailer, we really dislike the confusion and the distrust that comes from huge rebates and incentives. So to the extent that General Motors has taken significant steps in that direction, we very much support that.

GHARIB: All right, Mr. Jackson thank you very much for your thoughts. We appreciate your views.

JACKSON: Pleasure, thank you.

GHARIB: We`ve been speaking with Michael Jackson, chairman and CEO of AutoNation.

02/09/06: Where Best To Invest? - Healthcare

PAUL KANGAS: Tonight, we wrap up our annual look at "Where Best to Invest". A team of our veteran market monitor guests identified three sectors as prime for growth this year: energy, technology, and healthcare. Joining me now for a look at where best to invest in the health care sector is Robert Gold, director of healthcare research at Standard & Poor`s equity. Welcome to NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, Robert.

ROBERT GOLD, DIR. HEALTHCARE RESEARCH, STANDARD & POOR`S: Thank you, Paul. It`s a pleasure to be here.

KANGAS: I know you head up health care research at S&P equity. Where do you see the best growth potential in this sector?

GOLD: Well, the sector, as you know is very diverse. There`s really a lot of ways we can play it. In terms of pure growth, we continue to see growth in areas that we`ve seen over the past few years, primarily biotech and the small and midcap biotech space as well as large cap biotech space. We see in the medical devices and the cardiology players, some orthopedics and some other areas of the group. And we also see the HMO group. The managed care group has had a stellar run over the past few years, a lot of expanding margins, nice membership gains. We`re seeing a lot of growth there continuing this year.

KANGAS: Now, inn addition to growth Robert, are there some health care stocks that show more value than growth potential?

GOLD: Yeah, that`s a good question. I would say this year we`re focused a little bit more on finding some nice growth stories, a little bit more of a slant towards some of the larger cap names with nice dividends. We think it makes a lot of sense in this environment to go for high quality. In terms of where we`re finding a lot of growth, we think that the large cap pharmaceuticals in the U.S. offer a lot of nice valuation characteristics as well as some nice dividend yields. These stocks, in our opinion, are trading at trough valuations on a historical basis. We think that they`re moving through a lot of the patent exploration problems that they`ve been facing over the past few years. There`s been a lot of nice litigation wins and some of the developments in the Merck Vioxx cases have been going their way. Dividend yields are about twice that of the S&P 500 at about 3 percent.

KANGAS: Let`s get specific, Robert. Which are some of your favorites?

GOLD: Sure. Well, actually, yesterday Standard & Poor`s went to a more favorable opinion of the pharmaceutical sector and our favorites there, we`ve had a strong buy on Eli Lilly since last year. We think they have a nice pipeline and they`re not as exposed to the patent expirations as much as their peers.

KANGAS: OK.

GOLD: We also like Pfizer very much. Pfizer triggered a nice run in the pharmaceutical group at the end of last year. They`ve been doing a lot of things that we like including jacking up the dividend. They have very nice dividend yield at this point.

KANGAS: OK, time for a few more.

GOLD: We also yesterday upgraded Johnson & Johnson and that`s categorized in the pharmaceutical group, but has a very nice exposure to not only pharmaceuticals, but it`s one of the largest medical device companies in the industry as well as a consumer franchise and that`s another stock that`s yielding 2.3 percent. We like that very much.

KANGAS: We only have a half minute left, Robert. What stocks do you think will most benefit from the new Medicare programs like the prescription drug benefit, very briefly.

GOLD: Well, we think the most direct beneficiaries are the generic drug manufacturers. We like Teva and we like Mylan Labs. We think there will be some nice gains membership wise for the HMO`s. Our favorite there are United Healthcare and Wellpoint.

KANGAS: OK.

GOLD: And we think some of the pharmaceuticals will do well also.

KANGAS: All right, Robert, do you own any of the stocks you mentioned?

GOLD: No, I don`t. As group head of the health care, we`re not allowed to own any stocks.

KANGAS: Company policy, understood.

GOLD: Company policy. That`s right.

KANGAS: Very interesting, Robert. I appreciate your being with us.

GOLD: Thank you, Paul. Thanks for being here.

KANGAS: My guest Robert Gold, director of health care research at Standard & Poor`s.

02/09/06: The New Appetite For Organic Foods

SUSIE GHARIB: The organic food sector is growing by leaps and bounds, a $15 billion industry expanding by 20 percent each year. Just as more Americans are turning to organically grown products, some consumer watchdogs are raising concerns about just how organic these products really are. Tonight, in our monthly home economist series, Brett Graff takes a look.

BRETT GRAFF, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: Pediatrician and homeopath Dr. Bruce Eisenberg recommends his patients eat organic foods. He says pesticides and growth hormones are bad for everyone, but particularly kids.

DR. BRUCE EISENBERG, PEDIATRICIAN: There`s more studies being done, but it could affect their nervous system as they`re growing, developing quickly. And just in case, I tell my patients, try as much organic fruits and vegetables as possible.

GRAFF: Like Eisenberg`s young patients, the organic food industry is growing each year. The Organic Consumer`s Association says Americans are buying more organically grown groceries. I`m one of them. My family`s diet now includes organic eggs that each week costs us $4.09 each week; A conventional dozen sells costs $1.06. Now I`ll do the math and hope my husband isn`t watching. He`s skeptical about the difference, although not skeptical enough to go to the supermarket each week. But by year`s end, we`ll spend $160 more on eggs alone. Add in the increased cost of organic milk, meat and fruit and it gets pretty pricey.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: The thing that deters me are the pesticides and the antibiotics. And for me, it`s worth paying the extra money to know that I`m getting clean produce and clean meat.

GRAFF: That`s the exact attitude attracting retail giants such as Costco, which has its own organic brand of milk and peanut butter. Major supermarkets also sell their own organic lines and organic products from major food producers like Kraft, General Mills and Gerber.

SCOTT VAN WINKLE, MANAGING DIRECTOR, CANACCORD ADAMS: Now we`ve seen that the term that I use industrialization of the organic infrastructure, and what we`re seeing is larger companies going into the production, manufacturing, marketing, retailing, in every respect, because they see a $15 billion category growing 20 percent a year.

GRAFF: With more products on the market, some consumer watchdogs are concerned about what is considered organic. Anne Malka`s organic grocery carries 4,000 products, including produce both grown locally and frozen by a General Mills subsidiary. She`s concerned about organic food labeling.

ANNIE MALKA, OWNER, DELICIOUS ORGANICS: The big companies really care about bottom line and they`ve proven that with us, to us by the ingredients that they put in their products right now.

GRAFF: But some industry analysts say producers wouldn`t dare break the trust of their typically well-educated and affluent customers for fear of losing their business. It would be an economic irony though if the same consumer demand for wholesome foods became the force that made them less wholesome. Brett Graff, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, home economist.

02/09/06: Commentary-Too Much Technology

SUSIE GHARIB: In tonight`s commentary, from cell phones to the latest in automobiles, a few thoughts on feature fatigue. Here`s Tom Stewart, editor of "The Harvard Business Review."

TOM STEWART, EDITOR, HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW: There actually exists a mouse pad for your computer that includes a calculator, a clock, a radio -- therefore, a clock-radio and a pair of headphones. There are some 700 features on the dashboard of a BMW 745. Your cell phone is also a camera and a PDA and an MP3 player. Don`t call me Andy Rooney, but did you ever wonder if the phenomenon called feature fatigue is getting out of hand. One out of 11 Americans has returned a home networking product because they couldn`t figure out how to make the darn thing work.

Here`s the paradox: according to Roland Rust, Debora Thompson and Rebecca Hamilton of the University of Maryland, those extra gadgets sell products. In a store, you`ll ignore the simple, functional appliance and you`ll pick up the dual-control, disco-ball/toaster/CD player/coffeemaker. But when you get it home, you`ll hate it. When shopping, people evaluate a gizmo on its capabilities. Back home, they care about how useable it is.

There`s a lesson here for business: think like users. Your customer`s not going to tell her friends it looked so hot on the shelf. She`s going to say, it was a waste of money. I never use that stuff. There`s a lesson here for consumers, too. Think Swiss army knife. If you`ve ever bought a Swiss army knife, you probably picked one that was somewhere in the middle -- it has some extra tools, but not a zillion -- and you were probably happy about it. I`m Tom Stewart.

02/09/06: Paul Kangas' Stocks In The News

KANGAS: That AIG settlement helped Wall Street move steadily higher this morning, as did solid earnings from Aetna and Marriott and Best Buy`s boost in its fourth quarter earnings outlook. By 1:00 p.m., the Dow was up 80 points and the NASDAQ up 17. But it was all downhill from there this afternoon. The Dow industrial average closed with a gain of only 24 3/4 points at 10,883.35. The NASDAQ down 11.11 at 2,255.87. Standard & Poor`s 500 fell 1.87 to 1,263.78.

Today`s renewed sales of the 30-year Treasury bond brought strong demand from foreign central banks. The new bond sold at a high yield of 4.53 percent. Shorter dated Treasuries settled modestly lower. The 10-year note dropped 2/32, putting the yield at 4.55.

Big board volume leader on 27 1/2 million shares, Pfizer (PFE) edging down $0.03.

And then a new issue, Exco Resources (XCO), this is an energy exploration firm, 50 million shares offered at 13. T. Boone Pickens incidentally owns 13 percent of the firm. The stock opened at $13.20 a share and the high was $13.70, backed down a bit from there.

General Electric (GE) $0.18 gain.

Lucent Technology (LU) a nickel gain.

ExxonMobil (XOM) fell $0.47, fifth in big board volume.

Nortel Networks (NT) dropped $0.04.

Time Warner (TWX) $0.19 loss.

Chesapeake Energy (CHK) off $1.16.

But Univision Communications (UVN) up $0.70. We learned yesterday the company may put itself up for sale. Today, News Corp said it would take a look at it.

And then tenth in volume was AT&T (T) showing no change on the day.

Aetna (AET) up $3.15. As I touched on, fourth quarter earnings sharply higher, $1.26. That was $0.02 to $0.03 above the Street estimate and the company boosted its forecast for new memberships.

Then Best Buy (BBY), star of the day, up $4.13. Company boosted its fourth quarter earnings estimate from $1.06 to $1.16, all the way up to $1.25 to $1.30. The company cited big sales of flat panel televisions.

Marriott International (MAR) up $1.53. Big fourth quarter earnings, $1.07, up from $0.79 a year ago and that was $0.09 above the Street estimate.

Brinks (BCO) on the other hand tumbled $5.03. The company had sharply lower fourth quarter earnings of $0.06 versus $0.29 last year.

Martin Marietta Materials (MLM) up $4.92. Fourth quarter earnings $1.02, up from $0.77 a year ago. Revenues up a respectable 16 percent.

Then the big percentage loser of the day, Graftech International (GTI), the company makes graphite electrodes for steel mills and it cut its 2000 earnings guidance from the level of $0.85, all the way down to $0.47. JPMorgan downgraded the stock from "over weight" to just a "neutral" rating.

And Maidenform Brands (MFB) down $2.10. The company cut its previous 2006 sales growth target of plus 7 to 10 percent, down to plus 5 to 7 percent and cited the cutback in business that it gets from Wal-Mart.

NASDAQ`s most active, Google (GOOG) getting hit again by profit takers, down $10.31, well below the record high of $475.

Apple Computer (APPL) down $3.86, profit taking there.

Cisco Systems (CSCO) a $0.15 gainer.

Intel (INTC) $0.33 rise.

And then fifth in volume was Microsoft (MSFT) losing $0.25 a share.

Oracle (ORCL) was up $0.12. After the close, Oracle says it`s going to cut 2,000 jobs. It also reaffirmed its third quarter earnings estimate of $0.18 to $0.19 a share.

Applied Materials (AMAT) a $0.02 loss.

Sandisk (SNDK) down $3.48.

Yahoo! (YHOO) a $0.50 drop.

And then Whole Foods Market (WFMI) down $6.78. First quarter earnings higher, $0.40 versus $0.34 last year, but a penny below the Street estimate. Company sees fiscal 2006 earnings growth just below its projected sales growth of 18 to 21 percent. For some, that was disappointing.

Then we see XM Satellite Radio Holdings (XMSR), Oprah Winfrey has signed a three-year, $55 million contract for a weekly program on XM Satellite.

And finally, another new issue, Nighthawk Radiology Holdings (NHWK) soared $4.65. It priced 6.3 million shares at $16 each. The stock opened at $18.50, traded as high as $22.
