reported income, adjusted for differences arising in revenue or
expense items, per applicable tax laws and regulations, between
reported income and taxable income. The provision for income tax
for the six months ended June 30, 1995 was $-0-. The Company did
not pay any federal income taxes during the first six months of
1995, whereas the Company paid $160,000 in federal income taxes
during the first six months of 1994.

AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
_____________________________________________
LIQUIDITY
The Company has consistently been able to generate adequate
amounts of cash to meet its needs and management is unaware of any
trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which will or
are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company's
liquidity.
Operating Activities
The net cash flow from operating activities for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 was negative primarily as a result of an increase
in the amount of funds required for the payment of claims, an increase
in policy acquisition costs and a decrease in net investment income
compared with the six months ended June 30, 1994. The negative effect
on cash flow of these items was offset somewhat by a 9.2% increase in
net premiums written for the same comparison periods.
The amount of funds required for claim payments increased
approximately 7.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1995 compared
with the six months ended June 30, 1994. This resulted primarily from
an increase in claim payments, due to increased weather-related losses
during the second quarter of 1995 compared with the second quarter of
1994 and the settlements of several large claims, in the first six
months of 1995 for the commercial automobile liability line of
business compared with the first six months of 1994.
Policy acquisition costs increased 17.6% in the first six months
of 1995 compared with the first six months of 1994. This increase
resulted from increases in amortization of deferred policy acquisition
costs, expenses related to commissions and overhead expenses during
the first six months of 1995 compared with the first six months of
1994. Expenses related to commissions increased as a result of the
cancellation of the 25% quote share reinsurance agreement and
increased bonus commission expense. Overhead expenses increased due
to increases in employee benefits and legal and auditing expenses.
Net investment income decreased 21.7% in the first six months of
1995 compared with the first six months of 1994, primarily as a result
of reduced yields on the Company's derivative securities.
The net cash flow from operating activities for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 was positive as a result of favorable operating
results.
Investing Activities
During the first six months of 1995, management invested a
portion of available cash balances and the proceeds received from the
disposition of investments into investment grade bonds which provided
favorable yields. The net cash flow from investing activities was
positive in the first six months of 1995 as total investment sales and
maturities exceeded total investment purchases.
During the first six months of 1995, unrealized investment gains
increased stockholders' equity by approximately $8,691,000, of which
approximately $6,918,000 of this amount was from debt securities, with
the remainder from equity securities. These unrealized investment
gains were a result of
<PAGE>
an overall improvement in market conditions during the first six
months of 1995. Approximately $3,727,000 of the $6,918,000 unrealized
investment gains on debt securities was related to six derivative
issues owned by the company. On June 30, 1995, the value carried in
the Company's balance sheet for these six issues was $20,392,000.
The Company's debt and equity securities are reported on the
Company's balance sheet at their respective market values which
fluctuate based upon a variety of market factors. Such fluctuations
will result in changes to the Company's unrealized investment gains or
losses and will have corresponding impacts on the Company's
stockholders' equity. The derivative securities mentioned above are
known as inverse floaters as their yields, which are adjusted
periodically, vary inversely to certain LIBOR rates. These derivative
securities will probably exacerbate swings in unrealized investment
gains and losses and stockholders' equity in the event of significant
movement of the applicable LIBOR rates. Additionally, the yield
formulas for these securities will result in commensurate swings in
investment income. At current yield rates and considering future
yield resets for these securities, net investment income for the final
six months of 1995 is expected to be reduced by approximately $314,000
as compared to the corresponding period in 1994. This is subject to
change, either positively or negatively, depending on future
investment market conditions.
The Company believes that the principal of these derivative
securities is assured at maturity as they are issued by government
agencies. However, if conditions are favorable for their disposition
or if unforeseen circumstances occur, the Company may dispose of all
or a portion of these securities prior to maturity.
During the first six months of 1994, management invested funds
which were generated from the disposition of investments, together
with a portion of available cash balances, into bonds and common and
preferred stocks. As a result, the net cash flow from investing
activities was negative for the six months ended June 30, 1994.
Financing Activities
There were no new financing commitments entered into the first
six months of 1995. The net cash flow from financing activities was
negative for the first six months of 1995 and the first six months of
1994, as a result of cash dividends paid to stockholders.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
The activities of insurance companies are regulated by state
authorities and adequate levels of reserves and equity capital are
required to be maintained to ensure that enough capital is retained in
the business to provide sufficient funds to meet its obligations. The
Company has met all statutory and regulatory requirements and
management believes that sufficient funds have been retained to meet
its obligations. The Company has no current commitments or plans for
debt or equity financing.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Premiums earned increased 8.3% and 5.6%, respectively, for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 1995 compared with the same
1994 periods. The increase in premiums earned resulted primarily from
the continued increase in the number of commerical lines policies
written and the cancellation of the 25% quota share reinsurance
agreement in the third quarter of 1994.
<PAGE>
Primarily as a result of the unrealized losses in market value of
investments experienced in 1994, average invested assets at June 30,
1995 decreased approximately $1,807,000 compared with June 30, 1994.
Additionally, net investment income decreased 19.9% and 21.7%
respectively, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1995
compared with the same 1994 period, primarily as a result of reduced
yields on the Company's derivative securities. The average investment
yield reflected this decrease as it was 4.79% for the six months ended
June 30, 1995 compared with 5.99% for the six months ended June 30,
1994. Management will continue to seek improvement in investment
earnings without sacrificing investment portfolio quality.
The loss and loss adjustment expense ratio was 86.5% for the
three months ended June 30, 1995 compared with 69.3% for the three
months ended June 30, 1994 and was 76.8% for the six months ended June
30, 1995 compared with 67.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1994.
This increase resulted primarily from claims attributable to the
occurrence of numerous weather-related natural catastrophes in Texas
during the second quarter of 1995, which were unprecedented in their
severity. Claims from weather-related natural catastrophes resulted
in approximately $3,922,000 in losses for the second quarter ended
June 30, 1995, compared with approximately $1,461,000 for the second
quarter ended June 30, 1994. For the six months ended June 30, 1995,
weather-related natural catastrophes resulted in losses of
approximately $4,669,000, compared with $1,967,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1994. The remainder of the increase in this ratio for
the second quarter and first six months of 1995 resulted principally
from an increased number of large commercial automobile liability
claims which occurred during the second quarter of 1995.
The policy acquisition cost ratio was 37.2% for the three months
ended June 30, 1995 compared with 31.7% for the three months ended
June 30, 1994 and was 37.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1995,
compared with 33.5% for the six months ended June 30, 1994. The
increase in this ratio was a result of increases in amortization of
deferred policy acquisition costs, expenses related to commissions and
overhead expenses during the first three months and six months of 1995
compared with the first three months and six months of 1994. Expenses
related to commissions increased as a result of the cancellation of
the 25% quota share reinsurance agreement and increased bonus
commission expense. Overhead expenses increased due to increases in
employee benefits and legal and auditing expenses.
The occurrence of numerous severe weather-related natural
catastrophes, the increase in policy acquisition costs, and the
decrease in net investment income resulted in a net loss of
approximately $3,068,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995
compared with net income of approximately $2,144,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1994.
