In addition to highly profitable operations, THR recorded large gains in investment income. THR’s total profit soared 63.8 percent to $704.6 million. Realized and unrealized gains on investments equaled more than $448 million last year.

Texas Health Resources is one of the largest faith-based, nonprofit health systems in Texas. The system owns, operates or has joint ventures with 17 acute-care hospitals, six short-stay hospitals and 15 outpatient surgery centers. THR’s assets totaled more than $6.1 billion at the end of 2013.

The 2014 fiscal year will be the last for Douglas Hawthorne, as he will step down as CEO by the end of the year, a position he has held since 1997 when the system was created.
