FREMONT GENERAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ON FORM 10-Q
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A --- BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
These statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and, accordingly, adjustments (consisting of
normal accruals) have been made as management considers necessary for fair
presentations. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. Certain 1994 amounts have been
reclassified to conform to the 1995 presentation, including the
reclassification of life insurance premiums to other revenue.
NOTE B --- ACQUISITION
On February 22, 1995, the Company completed the acquisition of
Casualty Insurance Company, an Illinois insurance company ("Casualty") pursuant
to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of December 16, 1994 among the Company,
Fremont Compensation Insurance Company, a California corporation and
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Fremont Compensation"), The Buckeye
Union Insurance Company, an Ohio insurance company ("Buckeye"), and The
Continental Corporation, a New York corporation, whereby Fremont Compensation
purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Casualty. The
purchase price paid by the Company was $250 million, comprised of $225 million
in cash and $25 million in a note payable to Buckeye. The cash used to fund
the acquisition includes $55 million in borrowings under the Company's existing
line of credit and the remainder from internally generated funds. The
acquisition was treated as a purchase for accounting purposes.
Casualty's operating results are included in the Company's
consolidated statement of income from the date of acquisition. If the
acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1995 the pro forma effect on
consolidated revenues would have been an increase in premiums earned of $57
million and an increase in net investment income of an estimated $5 million.
The pro forma effect on net income would have been an increase of $2 million or
$0.14 per share.
Prior to 1995 and its acquisition by the Company, Casualty
participated in an intercompany pooling arrangement with several insurance
subsidiaries of its former parent whereby Casualty ceded its insurance risks to
these affiliates and reassumed a portion of the former parent's pooled book of
business. Because of this intercompany pooling arrangement, separate financial
statements on an unpooled basis were not prepared. Accordingly, pro forma
results of Casualty's 1994 second quarter and six months June 30, operations
would not be meaningful.
NOTE C --- STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND PER SHARE DATA
On May 11, 1995, the Board of Directors declared a ten percent stock
dividend that was distributed June 15, 1995 to stockholders of record May 30,
1995.
Per share data have been computed based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding adjusted retroactively for this ten percent stock
dividend.
