Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Farm Family Casualty Insurance Company (the "Company"). On July 26, 1996,
Farm Family Mutual Insurance Company converted from a mutual property and
casualty insurance company to a stockholder owned property and casualty
insurance company and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Farm Family
Holdings, Inc. pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization and Conversion. In
addition, Farm Family Mutual Insurance Company was renamed Farm Family
Casualty Insurance Company.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. In the opinion
of management, these statements contain all adjustments including normal
recurring accruals, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the
consolidated financial position at March 31, 1997, and the consolidated
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.
The results of the Company's operations for any interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results of the Company's operations for a
full fiscal year.
<PAGE>
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
General
- -------
The following discussion includes the operations of Farm Family Casualty
Insurance Company (herein referred to as "Farm Family Casualty" or the
"Company"). The operations of the Company are also closely related with those of
its affiliates, Farm Family Life Insurance Company ("Farm Family Life") and Farm
Family Life's wholly owned subsidiary, United Farm Family Insurance Company
("United Farm Family").
The Company is a specialized property and casualty insurer of farms, other
generally related businesses and residents of rural and suburban communities
primarily in the Northeastern United States. The Company provides property and
casualty insurance coverages to members of the state Farm Bureau(R)
organizations in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, West Virginia and all of the
New England states. Membership in a state Farm Bureau organization is a
prerequisite for voluntary insurance coverage (except for employees of the
Company and its affiliates).
The Company's operating results are subject to significant fluctuations from
period to period depending upon, among other factors, the frequency and severity
of losses from weather related and other catastrophic events, the effect of
competition and regulation on the pricing of products, changes in interest
rates, general economic conditions, tax laws and the regulatory environment. As
a condition of its license to do business in various states, the Company is
required to participate in a variety of mandatory residual market mechanisms
(including mandatory pools) which provide certain insurance (most notably
automobile insurance) to consumers who are otherwise unable to obtain such
coverages from private insurers. In all such states, residual market premium
rates are subject to the approval of the state insurance department and have
generally been inadequate. The amount of future losses or assessments from
residual market mechanisms cannot be predicted with certainty and could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.
For the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, 36.3% and 37.5%,
respectively, of the Company's direct written premiums were derived from
policies written in New York and, for the same periods, 23.8% and 21.5%,
respectively, were derived from policies written in New Jersey. For these same
periods, no other state accounted for more than 10.0% of the Company's direct
written premiums. As a result, the Company's results of operations may be
significantly affected by weather conditions, catastrophic events and regulatory
developments in these two states and in the Northeastern United States
generally.
"Safe Harbor" Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1995
- ----

the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not
limited to,: (i) projections of revenue, earnings, capital structure and other
financial items, (ii) statements of the plans and objectives of the Company or

are hereby cautioned that certain events or circumstances could cause actual
results to differ materially from those estimated, projected, or predicted. Such
risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: exposure
to catastrophic loss, geographic concentration of loss exposure, general
economic conditions and conditions specific to the property and casualty
insurance industry including its cyclical nature, regulatory changes and
conditions, rating agency policies and practices, competitive factors, claims
development and the impact thereof on loss reserves and the Company's reserving
policy, the adequacy of the Company's reinsurance programs, developments in the
securities markets and the impact on the Company's investment portfolio and
other risks included in this Report on Form 10-Q and other risk factors listed
from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission Filings.
In addition, forward-looking statements are based on management's knowledge and
judgment as of the date that such statements are made. The Company undertakes no
obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these
forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to the Three Months Ended March
31, 1996
Premiums
- --------
Premium revenue increased $3.3 million or 10.4%, during the three months ended
March 31, 1997 to $35.0 million from $31.7 million for the same period in 1996.
The increase in premium revenue in 1997 resulted from an increase of $3.3
million in earned premiums on additional business directly written by the
Company, and an increase of $1.2 million in earned premiums assumed which was
offset by an increase of $1.2 million in earned premiums ceded to reinsurers and
not retained by the Company. The $3.3 million increase in earned premiums on
additional business directly written by the Company was primarily attributable
to an increase of $3.8 million, or 13.1%, in earned premiums from the Company's
primary products (personal and commercial automobile products other than
assigned risk business, the Special Farm Package, businessowners products,
homeowners products, and Special Home Package) which was partially offset by a
decrease of $0.2 million in earned premiums from the Company's assigned risk
business and a decrease of $0.3 million in earned premiums from the Company's
other products. The number of policies in force related to the Company's primary
products increased by 9.8% to approximately 116,900 as of March 31, 1997 from
approximately 106,500 as of March 31, 1996 and the average premium earned for
each such policy increased by 3.0% during the three months ended March 31, 1997
compared to the same period in 1996. Net written premiums increased 12.1% to
$36.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 compared to $32.8
million for the same period in 1996. The increase in net written premiums is
primarily attributable to the growth in direct writings to customers and, to a
lessor extent, an increase in the Company's voluntary assumed reinsurance
business. Geographically, the increase in the Company's direct writings come
from New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware, West Virginia,
and Rhode Island. In addition, direct writings of all our primary products,
particularly personal automobile, increased during the first quarter of 1997.
During the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company began to receive
assigned risk automobile business in New Jersey. Such assigned risk business
produced approximately $185,000 of premium revenue during the first quarter of
1997.
<PAGE>
Net Investment Income
- ---------------------
Net investment income increased $0.4 million or 10.4% to $4.3 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 from $3.9 million for the same period in 1996.
The increase in net investment income was primarily the result of an increase in
average cash and invested assets (at amortized cost) of approximately $38.4
million, or 19.5% from March 31, 1997 compared to March 31, 1996. The increase
in average cash and invested assets was primarily attributable to the net
proceeds of $31.0 million from the initial public offering and subscription
offering received in July 1996. The return realized on the Company's cash and
investments was 7.4% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 7.8% for the
same period in 1996.
Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
- -----------------------------------
Losses and loss adjustment expenses decreased $1.0 million, or 4.0%, to $24.7
million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from $25.7 million for the
same period in 1996. Loss and loss adjustment expenses were 70.6% of premium
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to 81.2% of premium
revenue for the same period in 1996. The decrease in loss and loss adjustment
expense as a percent of premium revenue was primarily attributable to the
reduction in weather related losses. Losses believed to be weather related
aggregated $2.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to
$6.9 million for the same period in 1996.
Underwriting Expenses
- ---------------------
Underwriting expenses increased $0.9 million, or 9.7%, to $9.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 from $8.8 million for the same period in 1996.
For the three months ended March 31, 1997, underwriting expenses were 27.6% of
premium revenue compared to 27.7% in 1996.
Federal Income Tax Expense
- --------------------------
Federal income tax expense increased $1.2 million to $1.6 million in 1997 from
$0.4 million in 1996. Federal income tax expense was 32.6% of income before
federal income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to
32.5% for the same period in 1996.
Net Income
- ----------
Net income increased $3.0 million to $3.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 from $0.3 million for the same period in 1996 primarily as a
result of the foregoing factors and the impact of $0.5 million of expenses in
the first quarter of 1996 related to the demutualization of the Company which
the Company has identified as an extraordinary item.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.2 million and $0.9 million
during the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the three months
ended March 31, 1997 was primarily attributable to the increase in net income
and a decrease in payments for losses and loss adjustment expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities was $8.5 million during the three months
ended March 31, 1997 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of
$0.5 million for the same period in 1996 primarily as a result of a decrease in
sales of short-term investments in the first three months of 1997.
The Company has in place an unsecured line of credit with Key Bank of New York
under which it may borrow up to $2.0 million. At March 31, 1997, no amounts were
outstanding on this line of credit, which has an annual interest rate equal to
the bank's prime rate. In addition, at March 31, 1997, the Company had $1.3
million principal amount of surplus notes outstanding. The surplus notes bear
interest at the rate of eight percent per annum and have no maturity date. The
principal and interest on the surplus notes are repayable only with the approval
of the Superintendent of Insurance of New York State.
