INDEPENDENT INSURANCE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited, consolidated,
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial
position as of March 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, the results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1994 and 1993 and cash
flows for the three months ended March 31, 1994 and 1993.
INDEPENDENT INSURANCE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors affecting the accompanying financial statements. It has been the
Company's experience that undue weight cannot be given to the results of a
single period, as such results are not necessarily indicative of that for an
entire year.
Net loss from continuing operations and before realized investment gains was
$100 thousand in the current quarter, compared with a loss of $7.5 million in
1993, and was below management's expectations. These results for 1993 included
approximately $8.0 million of losses from catastrophes as opposed to
approximately $300 thousand associated with catastrophes in 1994. Including
realized investment gains, income from continuing operations broke even in
1994 compared with a loss of $2.4 million in 1993. The Company generated
nearly $8.0 million of realized gains in the year ago quarter, primarily as a
result of market timing and investment strategies. It has been the Company's
experience that gains vary during interim periods due to timing and
investment strategies. In 1994, the process of exiting non-Home Service
lines of business is continuing, which results in less reported expenses and
revenue in each segment in comparison to the previous year.
Exclusive of investment gains, the life insurance subsidiary reported a pretax
loss of $900 thousand in the current quarter, a decrease of $3.1 million from
a year ago. By comparison, net investment income declined $1.8 million from
lower yields, while salary expense dropped $700 thousand due to the downsizing
of home office staff. Also in the current quarter $2.0 million was recorded
for estimated settlements on several lawsuits in Alabama, a jurisdiction where
awards for punitive damages have been prevalent and have received national
attention. Home Service life insurance premiums increased $1.9 million over the
1993 quarter. The decrease in life and accident/health premiums in the
quarter-to-quarter comparison primarily results from exiting the group and
credit lines of business, as previously announced. This is also the primary
reason for the lower reported life and accident/health benefits.
The property/casualty subsidiaries operated at a pretax loss of $500 thousand
for the first quarter, exclusive of realized gains, compared with a $14.9
million loss in the first quarter of 1993. Exclusive of catastrophes,
operations were break-even in 1994, an improvement of $2.5 million over 1993.
The current period reflects lower investment income and reduced administrative
expenses. The wind-down of non-Home Service lines of business continues to be
on target.
In accordance with the required adoption of a new accounting standard at year-
end 1993, the Company now reports certain securities at market value. These
securities may be sold in the future as the Company recognizes the need to
respond to market conditions and its tax position. Rising interest rates in
the quarter reduced the unrealized gain on security investments reported at
market value, which lowered shareholders' equity by $23.4 million, or $1.78
book value per share. It is important to note that had the standard permitted
us to market value the liabilities matched with these securities, the resulting
increase in shareholders' equity would have more than offset this decrease
Book value per share currently totals $22.16 versus $22.99 a year ago.
In other areas, at the Annual Shareholders' Meeting held in April, the Board of
Directors as recommended were elected for a one-year term, and a regular
quarterly cash dividend has been declared. A dividend of 6 cents per share
on both voting and nonvoting common stock is payable on June 1, 1994, to
shareholders of record on May 11, 1994.
