Big wireless carriers get subscriber permission to use, share location data Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 29, 2011) Clearlease Reports The four largest wireless carriers in the U.S. say they obtain customer permission before using a subscriber’s physical location to provide driving directions, family-locator applications and other location-based services, and before sharing a subscriber’s location with any outside mobile apps that provide such services.

But in letters to Congress released Thursday, the wireless companies also say they have no power to require independent developers of location-based apps to get similar user consent if these apps don’t rely on the carriers themselves to acquire location data.

The letters from the four carriers — AT&T Wireless, Verizon Wireless, Sprint Nextel and T-Mobile USA — were released one day after Apple admitted that its popular iPhone stores data used to help the device locate itself for up to a year.

RIM (TSX:RIM) acquires software scheduling app company Tungle Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 29, 2011) Clearlease Reports BlackBerry maker Research In Motion (TSX:RIM) acquired Montreal-based software company Tungle on April 28, 2011, which has an application to help people schedule and synchronize meetings over their smartphones, computers and tablets.

Tungle said on its blog that it was “joining the ranks of RIM.”

Tungle has 23 employees in Montreal and a development office in Waterloo, Ont., where RIM is headquartered. The Montreal company said it’s backed by Commonwealth Capital Ventures, JLA Ventures and Desjardins Venture Capital.

The application lets people share their meeting times with individuals or groups of people.

Tungle said it’s Tungle.me application supports Google, Microsoft’s Outlook, Apple iCal, Entourage for Mac, Lotus Notes, Windows Live and Yahoo and connects to major social networks such as Facebook, Plancast, TripIt, LinkedIn and Twitter.

Shares in Research In Motion were up more than two per cent, or $1.17, to $53.93 on Thursday morning on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

RIM will host its BlackBerry World conference in Orlando, Fla., on Monday where it’s expected to unveil a new, more powerful smartphone using the same type of operating system as its BlackBerry PlayBook computer tablet.

The new operating system was developed by QNX Software Systems, a company RIM acquired last April.

Sprint Nextel (NYSE: S ) adds 1.1 Million subscribers and iPhone Increase Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease http://www.clearlease.comSprint Nextel (NYSE: S ) adds 1.1 Million subscribers and iPhone Increase Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease http://www.clearlease.comSprint Nextel (NYSE: S ) adds 1.1 Million subscribers and iPhone Increase Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease http://www.clearlease.com

Sprint Nextel (NYSE: S ) adds 1.1M subscribers and halves 1Q net loss, but loses high-paying customers Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 29, 2011) Clearlease Reports Sprint Nextel Corp. (NYSE: S ) on Thursday April 28, 2011 said it added more wireless subscribers in the first quarter than it has in five years, mainly on cheap service plans, as its turnaround continued despite the new threat of Verizon’s iPhone .

Sprint added a net 1.1 million subscribers in the January to March period as its contract-free Virgin Mobile and Boost brands raked in a record number of new subscribers.

Verizon’s launch of the iPhone on Feb. 10 and AT&T Inc.’s price cut on an older iPhone model didn’t leave Sprint completely unscathed. Sprint posted a net loss of 114,000 subscribers on contract-based plans, which are the most lucrative. People weighing between smartphones on Sprint and Verizon seem to have been tipped toward Verizon by the new iPhone .

But people who were already Sprint subscribers showed no inclination to abandon their contracts and move to Verizon. Sprint reported stronger loyalty among its contract subscribers than it’s ever seen.

The effect of the Verizon iPhone launch on AT&T’s quarterly results was similar.

Sprint has reported losses in every quarter for almost four years. The period ended March 31 was no different, with a net loss of $439 million, or 15 cents per share. But that was down from a net loss of $865 million, or 29 cents per share, a year ago, and Sprint posted an operating profit for the first time since 2007.

Revenue rose 3 per cent to $8.3 billion from $8.1 billion a year ago.

Analysts had expected a larger loss of 22 cents a share, and lower revenue of $8.2 billion.

Sprint shares rose 16 cents, or 3.3 per cent, to 4.95 in morning trading.

The company has been holding the line on costs while subscriber trends have improved thanks to better customer service, a signature project of CEO Dan Hesse. In January, Sprint effectively raised prices by adding a $10 per month fee for new smartphones.

“Our strengthening brand helped us mitigate what otherwise would have been difficult to navigate: increasing our price in the face of a new iconic competitive device and widespread industry price pressure,” Hesse said on a conference call.

Hesse has said that Sprint, and the health of the wireless industry as a whole, is threatened by AT&T’s $39 billion deal to buy T-Mobile USA, the fourth-largest carrier. It would leave Sprint even further behind the top two carriers, AT&T and Verizon.

Speaking to analysts and investors on a conference call, he said many of them probably welcomed the combination because it would lead to higher, more stable prices and thus better profits in the industry. But they should pay attention to what diminished competition would do, he said.

Sprint’s push to develop a fourth-generation wireless data network (now part of its Clearwire Corp. subsididary) pushed Verizon to develop its own 4G network, which in turn prompted AT&T to speed up its plans, Hesse said. The U.S. now has the largest 4G network in the world.

“The U.S. has regained wireless technology and innovation supremacy,” Hesse said. “If Sprint had not been a legitimate … competitive threat, the U.S. would still be a wireless also-ran.”

Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC ) 1Q profit beats estimates on high-speed data subscriber gains Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 29, 2011) Clearlease Reports Time Warner Cable Inc.’s (NYSE: TWC ) first-quarter net income rose as more people signed up for high-speed Internet connections, which the company said Thursday April 28, 2011 is becoming the most important service for consumers.

The New York-based company added 177,000 residential Internet customers — more than the 159,000 expected — ending the quarter with 9.6 million. Chief Executive Glenn Britt said the total number, including 346,000 business customers, surpassed 10 million after the quarter ended.

“High-speed data is quickly becoming the anchor product in the eyes of our customers,” Britt told analysts.

The company lost 66,000 residential video subscribers, in line with forecasts. Combined with business customers, it ended with 12.3 million video subscribers.

Net income rose 52 per cent to $325 million, or 93 cents per share. Excluding one-time items, adjusted earnings came to $1.01 per share, beating the 97 cents per share expected by analysts polled by FactSet.

Revenue rose 5 per cent to $4.83 billion, also surpassing expectations for revenue of $4.79 billion.

The company said a mix of higher prices and customers buying higher-end products helped average revenue per user. Average video revenue rose 5 per cent to $74.57 per customer, data revenue rose 6 per cent to $44.68 and voice revenue rose 2 per cent to $39.32.

Britt said that new technology was allowing it to improve the experience of video subscribers — evidenced by the launch of its iPad application.

But he said the greater use of data by some could eventually lead to usage-based pricing, reiterating comments the company made earlier.

“Clearly, the volume of activity on the Internet is growing really fast,” he said. “To keep up with that there’s going to be more and more investment required. It’ll be natural, like everything else in our lives, that the people who use more will pay more and the people who use less will pay less.”

Shares rose 51 cents to $75.82 in morning trading Thursday.

Aetna Inc. (NYSE: AET ) 1Q profit increase, raises 2011 forecast Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 28, 2011) Clearlease Reports Aetna Inc. (NYSE: AET ) said Thursday April 28, 2011 that its 1Q profit rose 4 per cent, as it became the fourth big health insurer in the past week to report better-than-expected earnings and raise its 2011 profit forecast.

The Hartford, Conn., company said health care costs fell and it recorded a $174 million gain in the quarter because claims left over from previous quarters came in below expectations due to lower-than-projected care use.

Several health insurers have said slower-than-expected growth in health care use — caused in part by bad weather — has helped them in recent quarters. Aetna is the third largest commercial health insurer behind WellPoint and UnitedHealth. Both of those companies and Humana Inc. have already reported first-quarter results that topped Wall Street expectations and raised their 2011 earnings forecasts.

Managed care companies had set a high bar for first-quarter earnings and guidance increases, but Aetna ‘s results exceed “even our recently heightened expectations,” Leerink Swann analyst Jason Gurda said in a research note.

The company’s shares jumped more than 8 per cent, or $3.34, in premarket trading to $43.15.

Aetna earned $586 million, or $1.50 per share, in the three months that ended March 31. That’s up from $562.6 million, or $1.28 per share, a year ago. Revenue fell 3 per cent to $8.39 billion, as enrolment dropped 5 per cent.

Adjusted earnings, which exclude one-time items, were $1.43 per share.

Analysts surveyed by FactSet forecast, on average, earnings of 96 cents per share on $8.32 billion in revenue. They normally exclude one-time items from their estimates.

The insurer said it now expects full-year adjusted earnings to range between $4.20 and $4.30 per share, a big jump from its forecast in February of between $3.70 and $3.80 per share. That was much higher than analysts were expecting at the time. Analysts now expect $3.73 per share.

Aetna said health care costs, which are essentially the amount it pays in medical claims, fell 6 per cent in the first quarter to $5.35 billion.

Health insurance is Aetna ‘s main product, but the company also sells dental, group life and disability coverage.

It said medical membership fell to 17.8 million people from 18.7 million in last year’s first quarter, as it saw losses mainly in its commercial business, which includes employer-sponsored group coverage and individual plans. That led to a 2 per cent drop in health care premiums, the largest portion of Aetna ‘s revenue.

The insurer also said Thursday it will spend about $600 million to buy Prodigy Health Group, a privately held company that administers self-funded health plans for companies with between 100 and 5,000 employees. In self-funded plans, the employer pays the claims and assumes the risk.

The New York-based company operates in 15 states and has about 600,000 medical members.

Kodak (NYSE: EK ) loses $246 million in 1Q on weaker sales of film, digital cameras Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 28, 2011) Clearlease Reports Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE: EK ) said Thursday it lost $246 million in the first quarter — its third quarterly loss in the last year — on weaker digital camera and film sales.

The results missed Wall Street expectations, and its shares fell 20 cents, or 6.3 per cent, to $2.97 in pre-market trading.

Vigorous sales of inkjet printers, however, offered glimmers of hope that the picture-taking pioneer remains on course to recast itself into a profitable player in digital photography and printing.

Kodak said its loss in the January-to-March quarter amounted to 91 cents a share. That compares with net income of $119 million, or 40 cents per share, a year earlier when results were swelled by $550 million in one-time revenue from a digital-imaging patent-litigation triumph.

Excluding items, Kodak said it lost $1.13 per share in the latest quarter. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expected a loss of 48 cents a share.

Revenue dropped 31 per cent to $1.32 billion from $1.9 billion a year ago. Analysts expected revenue of $1.41 billion.

Revenue from the company’s digital business plunged 36 per cent to $955 million. But excluding the year-ago licensing payment from South Korea ‘s Samsung Electronics Co., Kodak said digital revenue rose 2 per cent and overall sales fell by just 3 per cent.

Film group sales dipped 14 per cent to $367 million, hit by industry volume declines and surging costs for silver.

Sales of Kodak’s low-end cameras have been hurt by lingering weakness in discretionary consumer spending and stiff competition from smart phones and video cameras. Part of the decline can be attributed to its attempt to shift to pricier cameras with higher profit margins.

The 130-year-old company has been struggling to make headway in its nearly decade-long digital transformation. Since 2004, it has reported only one full-year profit — in 2007 — and expects more red ink this year before crossing back to profitability sometime in 2012.

It is investing heavily in four core growth businesses, including digital inkjet printers, software and packaging, that generated a 23 per cent jump in sales in the first quarter. Sales of its most promising business, consumer inkjet printers, surged more than 50 per cent.

Kodak expects to turn its first profit from home inkjet printers this year, and its commercial line of high-speed digital presses is targeted to turn profitable in 2012.

Chrysler said Thursday it will take out bank loans and sell debt to repay $6.6 billion Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 28, 2011) Clearlease Reports Chrysler said Thursday it will take out bank loans and sell debt to repay $6.6 billion in loans that it still owes the U.S. and Canadian governments, a major step toward becoming a publicly traded company again.

The company said it also will use $1.3 billion from Italy’s Fiat SpA, which runs Chrysler, to help repay the government bailout money.

Details of the deal are still being worked out, and terms could be disclosed as early as Monday when Chrysler releases its first-quarter earnings.

The deal would give the governments a big chunk of the money they loaned to Chrysler to keep it operating and exit its 2009 bankruptcy. It also would save Chrysler millions of dollars in interest payments.

In addition, the refinancing is a major step toward an initial public stock offering by Chrysler that could come late this year or in early 2012.

Chrysler Group LLC still owes $5 billion to the U.S. government and $1.6 billion to the Canadian and Ontario governments.

The Auburn Hills, Michigan, company said in a statement Thursday that it would sell debt securities to institutional investors in a private offering.

Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM ) profit to near $11 bln anticipates furor Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 28, 2011) Clearlease Reports Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE: XOM ) earned nearly $11 billion in the first quarter, a performance that will likely land it in the centre of the national debate over high gasoline prices.

The world’s largest publicly traded company on Thursday reported net income of $10.65 billion, or $2.14 per share, in the first three months of the year. That compares with $6.3 billion, or 1.33 per share. Revenue increased 26 per cent to $114 billion.

The results surpassed Wall Street estimates of $2.04 per share on sales of $112.6 billion, according to FactSet.

The quarter was Exxon’s best since earning a record-setting $14.83 billion in 2008’s third quarter. It comes at a time when some drivers are paying $4 or more for gas and President Obama is threatening the oil industry’s multibillion-dollar tax subsidies.

Exxon Mobil Corp. increased earnings despite a slight drop in worldwide oil and natural gas liquids production. Benchmark crude prices increased 20 per cent from the same period last year.

Earnings grew across the company’s business segments. Income from its exploration and production business gained 49 per cent to $8.7 billion while the company’s downstream business, which includes refineries, posted a huge 30-fold jump to more than $1.1 billion.

Anticipating a strong reaction to the results from drivers and politicians, Exxon said on a company blog Wednesday that it has little control over the price of oil, which has risen to near $113 per barrel. The company also noted that less than 3 cents of every dollar it earns comes from the sale of gasoline and diesel fuel.

That may not appease many motorists, however. The national average for a gallon of gas is $3.89, about $1.02 more than a year ago. It’s above $4 in 8 states and the District of Columbia.

On the blog, Ken Cohen, Exxon’s vice-president of public and government affairs, said the company was anticipating “the inevitable headlines and sound bites about high gasoline prices and what to do about them” after the earnings were reported.

Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMP) flows 300,000 barrels per day Dominion Lending Centres Clearlease

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (April 28, 2011) Clearlease Reports Crude oil is once again flowing through the Trans Mountain pipeline from Alberta to terminals in Burnaby, B.C., and Washington State.

Kinder Morgan, which operates the pipeline, says the company restarted the line at 80 per cent capacity late Wednesday night.

The line, which can carry up to 300,000 barrels per day of crude oil and various refined products, was shut down on Good Friday when a small amount of crude was found on a farmer’s field west of Edmonton.

Company spokesperson Lexa Hobenshield says company officials will be meeting with The National Energy Board, the federal watchdog that oversees pipelines, in the next week to decide when the line can be brought back up to full capacity.

The Texas-based company (NYSE:KMP) originally hoped to restart the line Tuesday, but said Wednesday that the restart would be delayed until further assessments and repairs were made.

Hobenshield says the leak was caused by a very small crack in the pipeline.
