Question-and-Answer Session

Operator

(Operator Instruction) And we’ll take our first question from Benjamin Theurer with Barclays.

Benjamin Theurer – Barclays

Well, good morning. First of all thanks for the call. I have actually two questions, one is related to the overall operations within Mexico. We’ve seen this kind of improved international traffic of about 7.5% growth. What’s your expectation going forward in terms of international traffic?

What have you seen so far and do you expect a shift more towards international traffic again which should then be positive for commercial revenues which was a little bit weak this quarter just because of the lower level of international traffic and then the second question would be related to Puerto Rico, you said already that it will take about three to four years to turn the operations around but do you expect to become at least in terms of operational profit positive before that timeframe or do you actually expect some three years to be operationally profitable at that airport? Thanks.

Adolfo Castro

Hi good morning Benjamin, thank you for being here with us. In terms of the traffic, yes you’re right. We have seen some improvement in the international traffic, I would say basically from the United States in the past year 2012 all regions were growing of the exception of the United States. Apparently, today what we are seeing is a small increase from the US traffic.

If this will continue or not it’s hard to say but my expectation is that this year the domestic traffic will be more balanced against what we saw last year. Also it is important to say that due to the fact that Mexico City airport is congested or that the Mexican authorities have decelerated these airports as stagnated and because of these they have decreased the amount of operations that these airport can take in an hour as from some of these years probably we will see a small reduction over the end of the year. Again this will change a little bit asset mix that we expect for this year.

In the case of San Juan, yes we are talking about three to four years to make a turnaround of this airport and basically to be able to provide the same level of service quality that we are providing today at Cancún. Of course in terms of financials now we do not speculate to four years in order this airport can report profits, the result which show for the first 31st days of operation was a small loss in my opinion and these should be corrected in the years to come because of increase in the commercial revenue per passenger.

Of course this will not happen from day tonight but first thing that we have to do is to improve work due to maintenance, correct maintenance problems these airport has today; second to start with the construction of the new layout of the terminal and then we can talk about more growth in terms of commercial revenues. So I would say this will mature one year from now.

Benjamin Theurer – Barclays

Okay thank you very much.

Adolfo Castro

You’re welcome,手镯零售，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。.

Operator

And we will take next question from Stephen Trent with Citi.

Stephen Trent – Citi

Good morning Adolfo and thanks for the time, sorry if I am repeating something you already said, but I had some trouble dialing in. I just wanted to follow up on one or two of Ben’s questions,专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，手镯零售, looking at Puerto Rico in your outlook on that. I am wondering sort of what general assumptions you made about sort of recovery of capacity from the likes of American Airlines and to what extent that FAA budget cuts have impacted your outlook in terms of having this asset become accretive?

Adolfo Castro

Okay hi good morning, Steve. In the case of American Airlines we don’t believe that they’re going to go back in the strategy based target two years ago basically moving their hub operations from San Juan to Miami and maybe you know that as from April this year American Eagle is not operating there anymore.

So we’re not focused on that and we don’t believe that we’re going to be able to compete them, one they have invested a lot of money in Miami airport. Again these – Jetblue is putting a lot of emphasis in the growth of these airport and I would say this region in the future.

In terms of the current cost from FAA well from TSA basically, I would say we do not expect any major impact in the case of San Juan airport. Also one of the projects we have there that we will start constructing towards the end of this year will be the improvement of the security field test map in order they can be more efficient in terms of using their own personnel. So that will benefit the airport and also this will benefit them in terms of the amount of people they have look at it to process all of these passenger. So I don’t expect any problem with the situation in San Juan. And remember that this airport has excessive capacity, let me put it that way. So it’s not a problem.

Stephen Trent – Citi

Great. Thanks Adolfo. And just one another quick thing, I didn’t – I heard you say, mention the dividend that you declared this year, but if you could repeat that for me please, I couldn’t hear you so well.

Adolfo Castro

Yeah the proposal is Ps.4 per share.

Stephen Trent – Citi

Great thank you Adolfo. Let me leave it at that. I will let someone else ask a question. I appreciate.

Adolfo Castro

Thanks.

Operator

(Operator Instructions) And we will go next to Vivian Salomon with Itau.

Vivian Salomon – Itau

Hi Adolfo, good morning. I just wanted to ask you about the tax level that you reported during this quarter. Should we be expecting, let’s say normal for the rest of the quarters and just talking about my second question on the commercial side, what do you – I mean I know you don’t give the guidance, but what are you expecting in terms of what sort of the – what portion of the revenue should we be expecting to go up if we see the bench, as we see between dynamics of passenger mix during this year?

Adolfo Castro

Okay. In terms of factors Vivian more or less the average for the whole year should be an effective rate of 30% which is more or less the corporate rate we have in Mexico. The difference could be in the case of the cash that we pay in taxes, but in terms of the P&L the average for the year should be close to 30% or less something different of Qs as we saw in the fourth quarter last year when toward shifting from one pact to the other.

In the case of commercial, I would say, yes, we don’t like to send resource in terms of commercial value of the passenger in the negative way. That’s clear that we don’t like that. I mean that’s not the objective we have as a management. But I may have to say that during this quarter there were very strange things that happened, the depreciation of the peso was one of them.

Of course the amount of domestic passengers we saw in Cancún terminal was another one and we are taking the necessary steps to correct the situation to a project towards the end of the year we will have to open a terminal 1 that will represent some kind of relief to terminal 2.

This will give domestic passengers more space and of course more opportunity to buy stock. As I mentioned at the beginning, we expect the change in the passenger mix so that we have more international in comparison of what we saw as earlier and so that’s what I can say for now.

Vivian Salomon – Itau

Thank you, Adolfo, very interesting.

Operator

And I will take our next question from Neal Dihora with Morningstar.

Neal Dihora – Morningstar

Hi, good morning, thanks. Two questions one you mentioned some reimbursement I guess from LMM bids in your P&L. I think that was in G&A, do you have the exact amount with the percentage amount and then two, were the LMM due, is the minimum CapEx amount for the duration of your 40 years there? Thanks.

Adolfo Castro

Okay. In terms of the reimbursement, these were some expenses that we have been reported in our P&L for the last two years that basically once operation was closed and we have a financial closing this was paid from Huatulco to Cancún airport. The amount of these was in terms of round numbers Ps.20 million and that was reflected already in our tools as reduction in expense in the cost of services. In terms of your second question, you mentioned minimum CapEx requirement.

Yeah, there is two requirements, one from the earners, one from the employee team and in the case of the employee team basically they are requiring project, they are not requiring amounts. In the case of the airlines, they are requiring projects and in minimum amount. This is very small what we really have to do. We have to improve this airport. Today,手镯，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。, I don’t have any specific amount of investment but what I can say to you is that the investment that we are expecting to put in this airport is by far more than the minimum requirement.

Neal Dihora – Morningstar

Okay. Thanks that’s helpful.

Operator

And we will take our next question from Luis Willard with GBM.

Luis Willard – GBM

Thank you good morning, Adolfo. Thanks for the call. Just a quick question regarding the negotiation of the MDP to the extent you can comment what can we expect in terms of the distribution of the investment given that it appears that you can continue growing without adding that much capacity to the terminals?

Adolfo Castro

Hi good morning, Luis, in terms of the MDP I cannot say too much today, what we are doing is basically having the with the authority they are basically going to each one of our airports reviewing each one of the projects we proposed in terms of investment.

My expectation is that the investment for the next five year period will be lower in terms of real terms compared with the previous five year period. That makes the expectation but of course today, we cannot say too much because we will have to see and agree these with the authorities. I believe this will occur more or less in the third quarter period.

Luis Willard – GBM

Okay. Thank you.

Adolfo Castro

You’re welcome.

Operator

(Operator Instruction). We’ll go next to Augusto Ensiki with Morgan Stanley.

Augusto Ensiki – Morgan Stanley

Hi Adolfo, good morning, just a question on LMM. What is the amount of investment expected for this year and then how does that how is that going to be reflected on your balance sheet and on your P&L? Thank you.

Adolfo Castro

Okay. As I said before, today we do not have a specific amount. As a matter of fact, we’re working in the quotations and well the design of the project and then the quotations for this construction. This year, probably the amounts are going to be extremely important because the real construction will start as from October, November this year. And for the project next year is going to be the hard one. How is this going to be reflected in our books, basically through the equity methods and basically putting a value of our 50% equity stake, and so you will, again we are not going to consolidate this into our financial.

Augusto Ensiki – Morgan Stanley

Okay. So then in the, the way that it appears this quarter in the asset line?

Adolfo Castro

Exactly in the investment, yeah.

Augusto Ensiki – Morgan Stanley

Okay perfect. Thank you very much, Adolfo.

Adolfo Castro

You’re welcome.

Operator

And currently, I’m showing no questions in queue. (Operator Instructions) Then we’ll take our next question from Adolfo Ramos with Franklin Templeton.

Adolfo Ramos – Franklin Templeton

Hey Adolfo, good morning everyone. I just wanted to see whether there has been any progress on finding on expanding the organization. You mentioned that you were waiting on the approval of the LMM airport to make any decisions, I was wondering if you’re any close to hiring someone?

Adolfo Castro

Yes and getting closer, I am glad, probably I’m getting closer to hiring someone and I hope that by the third quarter you will see someone else here.

Adolfo Ramos – Franklin Templeton

Thank you.

Operator

(Operator Instructions) And at this time, I am showing no further questions, I’d like to turn the call back to you Mr. Castro for any additional or closing remarks.

Adolfo Castro

Thank you, Jamie. And thank you everybody for joining us today on our conference call. As always do not hesitate to contact me if there are any further questions. Thank you and have a good day. Bye.

Operator

And again that does conclude today’s conference. We thank you for your participation.

专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，手镯零售 Post-Crisis C

Tue, 15 Oct 2013 13:56:44 +0900

Banks have taken it on the chin over the past several years. But after suffering from a long spell of bad credit card loans during the recession, they are finally getting some positive results from their credit card divisions.

Those improvements in repayment have cut losses substantially,专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，手镯零售, which will allow many banks to improve their earnings by drawing on relatively high loan-loss reserves. That's very good news for banks, which are continuing to struggle to generate profits. (The recent JPMorgan Chase () is a dramatic example of the risks banks are taking to boost their bottom lines.)

With their success in cutting losses, you'd expect that those credit card companies would be racing to offer new cards to customers. Unfortunately for millions of Americans with improving but still shaky credit, most issuers are taking the opposite approach by continuing to shut many customers out.

Post-Crisis Card Games

In response to the financial crisis, as delinquency rates soared, banks canceled many card accounts, reduced credit lines on others, and were quick to write off losses. It worked. Now delinquency rates have reached extremely low levels -- the current rate is less than half what it was in early 2009.

This is the time when banks would typically reach out for more customers. New regulation, however, has given credit card issuers less latitude to charge high rates and fees on those with less-than-ideal credit, and many banks have apparently decided that those customers aren't worth the risk.

Instead, banks have targeted less-creditworthy customers for other products. In particular, prepaid cards represent a chance to serve a group of customers that hasn't had much access to traditional banking services. With the opportunity to charge higher fees than they can on other cards, banks are looking to expand their prepaid card business as an answer to credit- and debit-card regulation.

It's possible that when a stronger economic recovery emerges, banks will once again move more aggressively into the credit card market. But for now, card issuers are holding back -- and millions of potential customers could have to resort to less attractive alternatives.

玛瑙手镯，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。 How to Get Help If Youre

Being old and poor doesn't sound like much fun,玛瑙手镯，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。. Here's what you need to know to avoid that fate -- or get help if you can't.

One quarter of baby boomers,纯天然手镯，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。, ages 46 to 65, appear to be headed for poverty in their old age, according to a recent , because they have no retirement or personal savings.People with no savings are likely to be among the 21% of married couples and 43% of unmarried persons aged 65 or older for whom Social Security is virtually their , according to Social Security's 2010 statistics.

The or $14,124 a year. The for a single person is $10,890. So someone surviving on Social Security alone is only $270 a month better off than someone just barely scraping by.

If you have no savings, the best advice is to start saving right away. If you can put away $250 a month for 20 years and earn a modest 3% interest, you'll have about $83,000. That isn't a fortune, but it's a lot better than nothing. According to , if you spend $75,000 on an immediate annuity at 66, you'll get about $490 a month for life, which added to your Social Security, raises your income to more than $20,000 a year -- or nearly twice the poverty level.

If it's absolutely too late to save and you can't work, it's time to look for help elsewhere. The best place to start is the National Council on Aging's .

Type in information about yourself, your spouse and your financial situation and this website will point you toward services that can make living in poverty much easier. While you don't have to be old to use BenefitsCheckUp -- some programs like Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) are available to people of any age -- most of the programs are limited to seniors or their caregivers.

BenefitsCheckUp includes information about more than 2,000 public and private programs in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Marlene Schneider, vice president of decision support services for NCOA,手镯批发，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。, says these programs are the most widely available and likely to be of the most help to the most people. Each listing on BenefitsCheckUp.org includes eligibility requirements and links to online applications. All you have to do is answer the questions.

Here are the programs most impoverished seniors are likely to qualify for:

If you have a low income, don't neglect to do your 2010 tax form -- even if you made less than $7,100, the IRS cut-off -- and you don't have to file. If you fill out the IRS form you are likely to qualify for the . This will net you several hundred dollars and is .

专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，纯天然手镯 Risk Outloo

Sat, 21 Sep 2013 19:28:33 +0900

By Richard Hubbard

LONDON -- World shares hit their highest level in a week Friday and bonds and oil rose after two U.S. central bankers moved to calm fears of an early withdrawal of monetary stimulus,专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，纯天然手镯.

Their efforts, combined with better economic data from Japan and an easing of credit concerns in China, lifted MSCI's world equity index 0.5 percent on Friday, putting it on course to reverse five weeks of losses.

But the gains were seen as limited with investors avoiding large bets on the final trading day of an unsettled quarter while pondering the impact of a broader shift in Fed policy.

"It's been a tough quarter, the easy game is up and markets have to reevaluate where they stand," said Wouter Sturkenboom, Investment Strategist at Russell Investments.

Global stock, bond and commodity markets have been notably volatile since Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke signalled last week the bank would soon cut the pace of its bond buying unless the economic recovery slowed.

Two Fed policymakers came out Thursday to reassure investors that any winding down of stimulus was still some way off, though its ultimate course was set.

"The market is going to have to base its views about equities and currencies on actual economic growth rather than simply the fact that there's cheap money there," said Simon Derrick, chief currency strategist at Bank of New York Mellon ().

"I think that's a fundamental shift."

The Fed's signal that the era of cheap money is drawing to a close has already hit gold as its value as a hedge against inflation evaporates.

The metal dropped to a three-year low near $1,200 an ounce on Friday, putting it on course for its worst quarterly performance in over half a century.

Quarterly Close

The end-of-quarter maneuvering was cited behind a rise in the euro off a four-week low against the dollar to $1.3045, and helped the dollar rise against the yen by 0.5 percent at 98.92 yen.

The broad FTSE Eurofirst 300 index,专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，纯天然玛瑙手镯, which had opened higher in line with other world markets, pared the gains as end of quarter positioning took hold, leaving it on course to end June lower after a record 12 monthly rises.

Earlier, MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan climbed 1.4 percent, pulling further away from an 11-month low and wiping out this week's losses. It was still down around 7 percent for the year.

Asia's rise followed Wall Street's rally on the Fed comments and Japanese data showing consumer prices stopped falling in May and labor demand reached a five-year high.

China's stock markets had also seen their biggest gains in two months after its central bank,纯天然玛瑙手镯, which had let short-term borrowing costs spike to record highs, said it would ensure its policy supported a slowing economy.

Risk Outlook Changes

In the fixed income markets, European bonds shared in the more positive tone, with yields falling on core German debt and riskier Spanish and Italian paper.

But Patrick Jacq, European rate strategist at BNP Paribas, said investors would require higher yields in future in light of the Fed's policy shift. "Liquidity and credit risk assessment has changed since the Fed spoke about tapering off," he said.

In commodities, Brent crude oil futures climbed 29 cents to $103.11 on course for the first monthly rise in five months. Copper was flat but facing its biggest quarterly loss in almost two years, reflecting global growth concerns.

Last year, the Federal Reserve changed the rules on how banks handle debit card overdrafts, requiring them to obtain customers' permission before allowing purchases or withdrawals that would leave an account with a negative balance, then hitting them with a penalty fee for the privilege. But despite the new opt-in rule, overdraft fees continue to be a costly pain in the neck for millions of Americans.

Seeing a threat to a multibillion-dollar revenue stream,专业手镯零售, the banks responded with pro-overdraft marketing campaigns that inappropriately targeted their customers, says the Center for Responsible Lending.

Earlier this year, Bank of America ) agreed to pay $410 million to settle a federal lawsuit alleging the bank charged excessive overdraft fees. That suit was just one of several filed against banks from plaintiffs in 14 states that were consolidated in a federal court in Florida. Other banks named in related suits include Wells Fargo () and Citibank . Banks have been taken to task for specifically processing payments from largest to smallest, a way designed to cause more overdrafts, rather than chronologically.

A recent study from The Pew Charitable Trusts, found that overdraft penalty fees are disproportionate to the size of the average overdraft amount, and that the penalties cost consumers tens of billions of dollars each year. In fact, these charges are estimated to cost Americans $38.5 billion in 2011, which is an increase of $18.6 billion since 2000, according to Pew. While banks do incur a risk that they won't be repaid when they approve such transactions, most institutions manage this by limiting the overdraft coverage given to each individual costumer.

More importantly, notes the FDIC's guide, you can protect yourself from high overdraft fees for free, simply by being careful.

1. Watch your balance

Track the money you deposit into and with draw from your account. You can do this on a paper check register or electronically. Remember to track ATM withdrawals, purchases you make with your debit card, bills that get debited electronically from your account, and checks. It also may be a good idea to keep a cushion of funds in your account to help prevent unintended overdrafts.

2. Link your checking account to a savings account

If the accounts are linked and you do not have enough money in your checking account to cover a transaction, the bank will transfer funds from your savings account to your checking account to cover the difference. This can save you money over other overdraft programs because most banks will only charge you a small fee, if they charge at all, for transfers. But, this option is useful only if you have enough money in the linked savings account to cover the transaction. Otherwise, ask your bank about other less costly alternatives to over-draft payment programs, such as a linked line of credit or affordable small-dollar loan.

Despite the issues,专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，纯天然手镯, some bank customers say they find overdraft protection is worthwhile.

"My wife and I are very happy that we signed up for overdraft protection on our checking account, as this service has saved us from not only the embarrassing situation of bouncing a check, but also the fees associated with that," said Steven Elliott in an emai interview. "Depending on the bank and the arrangement, I have always found this to be a great option. This is a FREE safety step with both banks (between savings and checking) as well as credit cards (to make minimum payments). I've never been charged for this from any bank or credit card company," added Elliot, who, it should be noted,专业加工制作手镯, has no history of overdrawing.

Banks are still feeling the pain from the fee income they lost with the passage of the Obama administration's consumer-protecting Credit CARD Act and other industry regulations. But those financial institutions may yet have the last laugh -- they continue to cash in on careless consumers.

专业手镯零售，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。 Question

Mon, 26 Aug 2013 20:19:29 +0900

Answer from Barbara Weltman of
Adding your name to your parents' deed may seem like a simple thing, but there can be tax consequences. While there are no immediate income tax consequences, adding you to the deed may constitute a taxable gift to you from your parents, because you now have an ownership interest in the home. However, just because it's viewed as a gift doesn't mean there will be any gift tax. Each person can give away $13,000 per recipient,专业手镯零售，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。, in 2010. Thus, if two parents add you and your spouse to the deed, $52,000 (or $13,000 x 4) won't be taxed. And each person gets a $1 million lifetime gift-tax exemption, so only very large gifts are actually taxed. Whether there is any gift tax depends on the value of the home. Looking ahead, when your parents ultimately die and you and your spouse become sole owners, your tax basis in the home,专业加工/制作/批发/零售玛瑙手镯/手环，专业玛瑙手镯零售, which can affect gain or loss when you sell the home, is different from what it would have been had you not received an interest in the home through a gift. Make sure you determine all the tax implications before you sign on the dotted line.

The health care reform law does only two things that directly impact prescriptions, and they both impact seniors: First, there will be a new $250 tax credit available for seniors who are pushed into the "doughnut hole" -- the roughly $2,000 gap between the first and second payment thresholds in Medicare Part D coverage. (Right now, participants are responsible for 100% of the cost in the doughnut hole.) Beginning in 2011,手镯批发，实惠的价格，超赞的品质。, those in the hole will receive a 50% discount on prescriptions, and in 2020 the hole will be closed by increases in the share of costs picked up by Medicare. The second impact has to do with corporate retiree medical plans. The new law does away with a tax incentive that had been offered to companies to offer prescription drug benefits to retirees. Without such an incentive, some companies may choose to discontinue these benefits.

Seniors aside, prescriptions may or may not be part of the medical plans available; the new health care reform law does not mandate that insurers offer a prescription drug benefit, although many do. You'll want to shop for an insurance plan that includes the prescription drug benefit you need.

Question:
I just had a son and am already thinking about his college costs. How do I start a 529 plan, and is it the best option these days? I heard that for some 529s, my son would have to attend a state college. I don't want to limit his choices.
