TEXAS’ CURRENT SITUATION
“The Future Just Ain’t What It Used to Be!”
Yogi Berra
Texas Issues 2015-2016• Price of oil fell more than 50% since July
• National economy, High Tech & Healthcare sectors still fairly strong: major influences
• Energy-dependent local economies (e.g. Houston, Midland) more vulnerable to significant downturns
• Statewide or local Slowdown vs. Decline?
• State budget expectations from Severance Tax affected by oil price decline
• Downstream offsets to Upstream cutbacks?
14
Oil Prices & Energy• Prices may not have bottomed yet:
• Saudi Arabia continues to protect its market share
• Global oil production will increase before it decreases
• Global oil demand not rapidly increasing even with rapidly-falling prices.
• Expect significant cut back in upstream capital spending on E&P, i.e., fewer wells drilled
• The Texas rig count down >55%: 900 to 412 (10/14 - 4/15)
• Increased geo-political-military volatility among oil producing nations that need (require) $95-$100+ oil price

Texas 2015 Outlook
• Nonresidential/infrastructure construction heavy for the year
• Home sales flat to down 10% depending on impact of oil prices
and potential offsets from downstream, healthcare, technology,
first-time buyers and National economy; maybe even lower
interest rates 1H15
• Houston, Midland, Corpus vulnerable to downturns from oil
prices
• Austin, San Antonio and DFW not as vulnerable to oil
prices but still may slip some from very high 2014 levels
• Home prices up 4% to 8% - continued tight S&D
• Employment growth rate more like U.S. (from 3.1% to ~2.0% or
less)
Texas Long-Term Outlook
• Energy sector long-term growth stimulant: world
energy demand will grow; U.S. (Texas) will be
major supplier
• Local Growth Issues becoming more pressing,
causing greater strain on state and local
infrastructure and resources
• Favorable business tax and regulatory
environment will fuel more business start ups
and relocations to Texas
• Rapid population expansion will fuel growth
Major Demographic Trends & Changing Housing Preferences
Aging population• Generational changes
• Lifestyle & life cycle: Gen Y vs. Boomers
Increasing racial/ethnic diversity & cultural shifts
Economic Shift: income & wealth gap • Educated and less well educated
• Age
• Race & Ethnicity
Urban Concentration - urban areas
