• Cash remained strong at $70.6 million, due to strong financial results and slower than anticipated capital expenditures.

• Accounts receivable amounted to $116.4 million, including student charges of $54.4 million, $52.6 million for sponsored program grants and contracts, patient charges of $6.3 million and $3.1 million due to the College of Medicine from Tenet Healthcare Corporation.
• Total liabilities increased by $22 million driven by higher payables and accrued expenses and retirement liabilities offset by $13 million of retired debt.
• The increase in net assets also reflects the addition of $66.5 million in net assets of the Academy of Natural Sciences at fair value, primarily in investments and fixed assets, as of the effective date of the affiliation on September 30, 2011.
