Cutting costs sounds like a warning sign. In our data, it's not.

Businesses managing costs most actively this year are also the ones raising prices and hiring at the highest rates, same businesses, all three levers at once.

The number actually worth worrying about: 22% of businesses still deciding on financing made no changes to their business at all this year."

60% of business owners think a recession is coming. Only 6% are actually pulling back because of it.

We dug into why, and found a real split: businesses that already have working capital are notably more likely to say a recession isn't coming at all than businesses still weighing their financing options.

Correlation, not proof, but a pattern worth understanding before you plan your own next few months.

Meet Don Senese, BD Pod Lead at Fora Financial. 👇

Before Fora Financial, Don was in a band.

That's not a detail that usually ends up on a resume, but it says something about the kind of person who thrives here. Creative, collaborative, not afraid to take up space in a room.

Five years later he's leading a Business Development pod, and the thing he talks about most isn't the commission or the wins. It's the people.

Welcome to the spotlight, Don. 🤝

Is cash flow the thing keeping you up at night this year?

You're not alone. We surveyed over 300 business owners this summer, and here's what stood out:

- 57% say cash flow has gotten harder to manage since January

- Only 11% say the same about tariffs

- 68% are still moving forward with their plans anyway

The pressure has shifted since the start of the year, and cash flow has pulled ahead of both tariffs and inflation as the top concern.

What's been the bigger challenge for your business this year: cash flow, tariffs, or something else? Tell us below.

63% of construction business owners expect favorable economic conditions this year.

Only 34% of food service owners say the same.

Same survey. Same month. 29-point gap.

Our 2026 Business Insights Report shows that national headlines about business optimism are averages sitting on top of real variation. Your industry matters as much as the macro environment when it comes to how 2026 actually feels.

We just made the Inc. 5000 list. Again.

For the ninth time, Fora Financial has been named to the Inc. 5000, the ranking of America's fastest-growing private companies.

Being on this list once is an achievement. Being on it nine times is something else: proof that the growth is real and it keeps going.

Since 2008, we've provided over $5 billion in working capital to more than 55,000 businesses nationwide. This recognition reflects the demand we're seeing from business owners who need capital fast, and the team that shows up to deliver it every day.

Nine times. Still building.

Among small business owners expecting significant revenue growth this year, 56% are already using AI. Among those expecting a decline, just 17% are.

That doesn't mean AI causes growth. But it does mean AI adoption is showing up as a consistent marker of businesses that expect to be doing well.

Where are most small businesses starting? Marketing content, by a wide margin. Followed by data analysis, customer service, and sales outreach.

If you're not sure where to start, that's your answer. Read the full breakdown at https://www.forafinancial.com/blog/ai-adoption-for-small-business-growth/.

75% of small business owners say 2026 is meeting or beating expectations.
60% think a recession is possible before year end.

Both of those things are true at the same time. That's the story our 2026 Mid-Year Pulse survey tells: resilience holding steady even as the economic outlook gets murkier.

Cash flow is the top challenge (57% of owners). Tariff pressure has leveled off. And only 6% are actually pulling back on their plans.
