NOTE 4--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
In December 1994, the Company entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase
Agreement (the Agreement) with Healthsource, Inc. under which Healthsource will
acquire the Company's medical services business for $310.0 million ($210.0
million in cash and $100.0 million in a new issue of Healthsource 6.25%
Convertible Preferred Stock). The Agreement is subject to regulatory approvals
and purchase price adjustments in certain circumstances. The parties are
currently negotiating certain matters relating to the purchase price
adjustments and other aspects of the Agreement in an effort to resolve open
issues and close the transaction. It is unclear whether the resolution of
those matters will have a material effect on the transaction. Under the
Agreement, disagreements unresolved by the parties are submitted to
arbitration. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of
1995.
Various lawsuits against the Company have arisen in the normal course of
business. Contingent liabilities that might arise from litigation are not
deemed likely to materially affect the financial position or results of
operations of the Company.
NOTE 5--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On May 10, 1995, the Company sold restructured mortgage loans with a principal
amount of $147.5 million and a book value of $122.6 million. The Company
received $99.5 million in cash for these restructured loans, which resulted in
a realized investment loss of $23.1 million.
NOTE 6--RESTATEMENT
The Company restated its first quarter results to correct premium income and
related expenses. During the process of separating the group business between
the product lines retained by the Company and the product lines sold as part of
the Medical Services business, an error occurred which resulted in the
overstatement of premium income by $6.3 million, of income before federal
income taxes by $6.1 million, of net income by $4.0 million, of income before
federal income taxes per common share of $0.14, and of net income per common
share of $0.09.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON REVIEW
OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company of America
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial
condition of Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company of America and
Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1995, the related condensed consolidated
statements of income for the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994,
and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three month
periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be
performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not
express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated statement of financial condition of Provident Life
and Accident Insurance Company of America and Subsidiaries as of December 31,
1994, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and cash flows for the year then ended, not presented herein, and in our
report dated February 6, 1995, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth
in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial condition as
of December 31, 1994, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to
the consolidated statement of financial condition from which it has been
derived.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NOTE: This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations reflects the restatement of the Company's net income
for the first quarter of 1995 as a result of changes to the interperiod
allocation of premiums and expenses in the Employee Benefits and Medical
Services segments between the first and second quarters of 1995. During the
first and second quarters of 1995, the Company separated its medical services
business segment (which was sold to Healthsource, Inc., in a transaction that
closed effective May 1, 1995), from its other employee benefits lines of
business. The separation involved a complex process of allocating premiums and
expenses between the two business segments. During the transition period, an
error occurred in the premium and expense allocation process between reporting
periods.
Revenue excluding net realized investment gains and losses ("revenue")
increased $24.0 million, or 3.5 percent, to $717.7 million in the first quarter
of 1995 from $693.7 million in the first quarter of 1994. The increase was the
result of increases in revenue in the individual life and disability segment
($16.6 million), employee benefits segment ($9.9 million), and medical services
segment ($0.8 million), which more than offset lower revenue in the other
operations segment ($3.3 million).
Income before net realized investment gains and losses and federal
income taxes ("income") declined $35.4 million, or 60.1 percent, to $23.5
million in the first quarter of 1995 from $58.9 million in the first quarter of
1994. The decline was the result of lower income in the individual life and
disability segment ($31.0 million), employee benefits segment ($4.6 million) and
medical services segment ($6.4 million), which was partly offset by increased
income in the other operations segment ($6.6 million).
INDIVIDUAL LIFE AND DISABILITY
Revenue in this segment increased $16.6 million, or 7.1 percent, to
$250.4 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $233.8 million in the first
quarter of 1994. Increases in both premium income and net investment income
contributed to the higher revenue. Premium income increased $2.0 million, or
1.3 percent, to $160.4 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $158.4 million
in the first quarter of 1994. The increase was the result of higher direct
premium income in the individual disability income line of business, which
increased $5.2 million, or 3.8 percent, to $143.8 million in the first quarter
of 1995 from $138.6 million in the first quarter of 1994. Net investment income
increased $12.8 million, or 17.5 percent, to $86.1 million in the first quarter
of 1995 from $73.3 million in the first quarter of 1994. The increase was the
result of increased capital and surplus allocated to the individual disability
line of business, the normal growth in reserve liabilities and related assets
held on individual life and disability contracts, and the growth in investment
income related to the deferred deposits in the annuity line of business.
-11-
<PAGE> 14
In November 1994, the Company announced its intention to discontinue
selling individual non-cancellable disability income contracts with long-term
own-occupation provisions (other than conversion policies available under
existing contractual arrangements). The Company will focus on replacing the
traditional non-cancellable, long-term own-occupation contracts with "loss of
earnings" contracts which insure income rather than occupation and require the
insured to participate in occupational rehabilitation as appropriate.
During this product transition period, premium income in the individual
disability line is expected to decline as a result of a period of lower sales
and the premium differential that exists between the traditional
non-cancellable, own-occupation contracts and the new loss of earnings
contracts. The magnitude and duration of the expected decline are dependent on
the response of customers and competitors in the industry.
This segment reported a loss of $16.8 million in the first quarter of
1995 compared to income of $14.2 million in the first quarter of 1994. The
individual disability line of business produced a loss of $20.5 million in the
first quarter of 1995 compared to income of $7.4 million in the first quarter of
1994. This line was negatively affected in the first quarter of 1995 by adverse
claim activity on individual non-cancellable disability income contracts with
own-occupation provisions which were issued from 1983 through 1989.
Specifically, the severity of the new claims in the first quarter was higher
than the average levels experienced in the 1994 first quarter and for all of
1994, and the level of claim terminations was lower relative to both periods.
A loss recognition deficiency of $423.0 million on a pre-tax basis was
recorded as an increase in "policy and contract benefits" and "change in
reserves for future policy and contract benefits" in the third quarter of 1993
to reflect the lower interest rates available at the time of the charge compared
to the interest rate assumptions used in pricing the business at earlier dates.
Higher than expected claim experience, caused by the general economic recession
and trends in particular regions of the country toward increasing claims for
certain occupations and types of disabilities, also contributed to the
requirement under generally accepted accounting principles to record the
deficiency. Although interest rates are currently consistent with those
projected at the time of the charge, it is not reasonably possible to determine
at this time exactly what the trends in interest rates will be.
Besides movement of interest rates, changes in expenses and morbidity
can affect results. The loss recognition study performed as of September 30,
1993, also projected that morbidity would improve over time as a result of
stricter policy provisions, tighter underwriting requirements, improved claim
handling procedures (consisting of centralization of the claims-paying function
in the home office and the availability of additional technical resources), the
effects of anti-selection wearing off over time, and general improvement in the
economy. Incidence and termination rate studies have been performed as of
December 31, 1994, to evaluate actual morbidity experience. Morbidity
-12-
<PAGE> 15
experience was at somewhat higher levels than expected for 1994, and also the
first quarter of 1995. It is not possible at this time to predict whether this
adverse experience is a trend or a short-term fluctuation. However, if
morbidity experience does not improve to the levels assumed in the loss
recognition studies, a further adjustment might be required. Since the study
in 1993, expenses have been lower than projected in that study, primarily as a
result of expense control efforts and centralization of the claims-paying
function into the home office.
The Company considers its individual disability income business to be
one block or line of business for purposes of conducting a loss recognition
study. The individual disability income business is analyzed on an ongoing
basis to determine particular geographic areas, occupations, policy provisions,
etc. which may be a factor in the results being experienced. Such reviews have
shown that policies written for medical professionals and for residents of
California and south Florida are more likely to result in claims than those
written on other professionals or in other areas of the United States or
Canada. Additionally, policies written during the period 1983 through 1989 have
a higher claim rate than those policies written before or after this time
period. The Company, in intense competition with other companies in this line
of business during this time period, liberalized underwriting standards and
policy provisions without a corresponding increase in premium rates to offset
the increased risk undertaken. Since 1989, however, the Company has been
strengthening its underwriting and policy provisions and adjusting the price on
its new business written to better reflect the risks in this line of business.
Because individual disability income policies are long-term contracts
(with typical effective terms of five to forty years, depending upon the age of
the insured at the time of issue), assumptions as to interest rates and
morbidity, as well as expenses, lapse rates and other variables, used to price
the product and to calculate policyholder liabilities during the term of the
contracts, must be made with a long-term perspective. Fluctuations in actual
experience from such assumptions are normal, especially since these assumptions
are a long-term prediction of future events and conditions. These assumptions
are long-term averages of the experience that the Company expects to realize
over the duration of the policies and do not attempt to predict each short-term
rise or decline in interest rates, morbidity, or other factors. Variations
between actual experience and such long-term averages are monitored through a
variety of ongoing statistical studies. Such variations over a one or two year
period do not necessarily indicate that a change in the long-term assumptions
is necessary or that higher or lower reserves are required. Normally, such
fluctuations between actual experience and assumed experience are included in
income or loss in the current year. However, when these deviations occur in a
magnitude and/or over a time period such that if they continued the sufficiency
of reserves and the recoverability of deferred policy acquisition costs is
questionable, it is prudent to perform a loss recognition study.
In a loss recognition study, the Company uses its best estimates as to
future experience with regard to interest rates, morbidity rates, lapse rates,
expenses, and other factors to update its assumptions. These revised
assumptions are then used to determine if
-13-
<PAGE> 16
reserves currently held plus the present value of future cash inflows
(primarily from premiums and investment income) are projected to be sufficient
to meet the present value of future cash outflows (primarily for benefits and
expenses) and the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs. If they
are not sufficient, an additional provision must be recorded either as a
reduction of deferred policy acquisition costs or as an increase in reserve
liabilities.
While claims were higher and interest rates generally lower in 1991
than in previous years, at that time the Company believed these fluctuations to
be short-term and acceptable variations from the assumptions underlying these
long-term policies. However, in light of a continuing decline in interest
rates and deterioration of morbidity experience during 1992, the Company began
such a loss recognition study on its individual disability income business in
December 1992 to determine whether or not a loss recognition deficiency existed
at December 31, 1992. An independent actuarial consulting firm was engaged to
assist in the development of a gross premium valuation model appropriate to the
Company's business, to review the reasonableness of the assumptions used by the
Company at the time of the study, and to work with Company employees in the
actual performance of the calculations. The loss recognition study completed
in February 1993 showed that no loss recognition deficiency existed at December
31, 1992, using the assumptions with respect to morbidity, interest rates, and
expenses that reflected management's best estimates as of that date. Although
there is always uncertainty as to the direction of future morbidity experience
and interest rates, the Company believed the results of the study indicated
that reserves were sufficient as of that date. The Company also believed at
that time that, under its "most likely case" scenario, interest rates would
rise in 1993 and morbidity rates would do no worse than remain at 1988-1992
levels.
Through the first half of 1993, however, the interest rates continued
to decline, and the Company experienced further morbidity deterioration related
to this business. As a result, reserves were increased during the first two
quarters of 1993. Also, as part of its normal, ongoing reserve analysis, the
Company performs several detailed actuarial studies, including measuring
morbidity experience over a run-off period of several years. Increased claim
activity experienced in the first two quarters of 1993 and studies performed in
the second and third quarters of 1993, which reflected 1992 morbidity
experience, caused management to revise its December 31, 1992, estimate of
long-term morbidity rates. At the same time, the portfolio of assets related
to this line of business experienced a significant decline in long-term
interest rates combined with increased prepayment of fixed maturity securities,
resulting in a significant decline in the portfolio's future investment
returns. The yields on assets supporting the individual disability business
declined to 9.32 percent at the end of the first quarter and to 9.17 percent at
the end of the second quarter, compared to an aggregate yield of 9.57 percent
at the end of 1992.
Because of these developments during the first half of 1993, the
Company again evaluated the sufficiency of reserves and the recoverability of
deferred policy acquisition costs. Although a loss recognition study had been
scheduled for year-end 1993 as a
-14-
<PAGE> 17
follow-up to the study at December 31, 1992, the deviations between actual
experience and assumptions were widening rapidly enough to warrant accelerating
the study to the third quarter of 1993 to determine if reserves continued to be
sufficient in light of these fluctuations.
The specific conditions that precipitated the third quarter 1993 loss
recognition study were:
1. A sharp drop in interest rates as evidenced by the decline in the
rate on 10-year U.S. Treasury Notes from 6.93 percent in December
1992, to 5.23 percent in September 1993. This drop of 170 basis
points was a 25 percent decline in nine months.
2. Prepayment of many fixed maturity securities during this nine-month
period, brought about primarily by the lower interest rate levels,
caused the yield on the portfolio supporting the individual
disability income business to decline 59 basis points in only nine
months.
3. Morbidity studies covering the first and second quarters of 1993
reflected further deterioration in morbidity experience during this
part of 1993 compared with previous morbidity experience.
The September 30, 1993, loss recognition study followed the same
principles as the study performed as of December 31, 1992. The independent
actuarial consulting firm, which assisted in conducting the December 1992
study, served in a review capacity (rather than as an active participant) in
the performance of the study. Based upon the revised assumptions, which
represented management's best estimates at the time of the study, a loss
recognition deficiency of $423.0 million on a pre-tax basis was required to be
recognized under generally accepted accounting principles. Management believes
that the required charge taken in the third quarter was a prompt and
appropriate response to these previously unforeseen changes.
The December 31, 1994, study again followed the same principles as the
previous two studies. Based upon the revised assumptions, which represented
management's best estimates at the time of the study, reserves were adequate at
the end of 1994.
The following table shows the new money interest rate assumptions on a
net effective yield rate basis and the portfolio yield interest rate
assumptions which were used in the December 31, 1992, September 30, 1993, and
December 31, 1994, loss recognition studies.
The interest rate assumptions in each of the loss recognition studies
represented management's best estimates at the time the studies were performed.

Annual net effective interest rates at which new money was actually
invested for the individual disability income business for the year 1992, the
first nine months of 1993, and the year 1994 were 8.82 percent, 7.59 percent,
and 8.17 percent, respectively. The net effective interest rate at which new
money was invested for this line in the first quarter of 1995 was 8.78 percent.
The overall net effective portfolio yield rates for invested assets supporting
the individual disability income business were 9.57 percent, 8.98 percent, and
8.64 percent as of December 31, 1992, September 30, 1993, and December 31, 1994,
respectively. The overall net effective portfolio yield for invested assets
supporting this line was 8.58 percent at March 31, 1995. The September 1993
loss recognition study projected that morbidity would improve as a result of
improved claim handling procedures (consisting of centralization of the
claims-paying function in the home office and the availability of additional
technical resources), the effects of anti-selection wearing off over time, and
general improvement in the economy. The December 1994 study also projected
improved morbidity, with reduced or delayed improvement, but projected no
improvement in the economy.
In performing a loss recognition study the Company is required to use
its best estimates with regard to assumptions used in the calculation. Using
"best estimates" means that no provision for adverse deviation is included in
the assumptions and the expectation is for a break-even outcome, that is, there
is about an even chance that experience will be better than or worse than the
assumptions. If future experience conforms to assumptions used in the loss
recognition study, no gain or loss would be expected from the line of business
other than (i) investment income relative to the capital and surplus allocated
to that line, and (ii) profit from new individual disability income policies. If
actual experience in a future period is worse than assumed and is expected to
continue, an additional loss would have to be recognized. If actual experience
is better
-16-
<PAGE> 19
than assumed, the resulting gain will be recognized over future years as it is
actually realized.
On a pre-tax basis, approximately 51 percent of the difference between
the results of the December 1992 and September 1993 loss recognition studies
related to the effects of rapidly declining interest rates during 1993,
including prepayment of fixed maturity securities as well as lower portfolio
yields on both new and reinvested money. Approximately 26 percent of the
difference related to higher morbidity costs and the associated claim
administration expenses. Approximately 11 percent of the difference was related
to the inclusion in the September 1993 loss recognition study of guaranteed
increases in coverage on existing policies. The remaining amount was primarily
attributable to differences in assumptions with respect to expenses, other than
claim administration expenses, and to persistency.
Based on the assumptions used in the September 1993 loss recognition
study, a ten basis point change in the equivalent level interest rates would
result in approximately a $22 million change in reserves, and a one percent
change in actual to assumed morbidity would result in approximately a $29
million change in reserves. Based on the assumptions used in the December 1994
study, a ten basis point change in the equivalent level interest rates would
result in approximately a $29 million change in reserves, and a one percent
change in actual to assumed morbidity would result in approximately a $28
million change in reserves.
It is not possible to predict with certainty whether morbidity, interest
rates and fixed maturity securities prepayments will continue at a level
consistent with the Company's assumptions, improve, or deteriorate; however, the
current assumptions as to these factors represent management's best estimates in
light of present circumstances. Additional increases to reserves would be
required if there is further material deterioration in morbidity, interest
rates, and fixed maturity securities prepayments from current assumptions. As
part of its ongoing management of this line of business, the Company will
conduct a gross premium valuation annually to validate the continued adequacy of
current reserves.
Income from the individual life line of business declined to $3.7
million in the first quarter of 1995, compared to $6.3 million in the first
quarter of 1994. The decline was primarily attributable to a $1.9 million
non-recurring expense item recorded in the first quarter of 1995 pertaining to
reinsurance reserves.
EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Revenue in the employee benefits segment increased $9.9 million, or 7.0
percent, to $150.7 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $140.8 million in
the first quarter of 1994. This increase was primarily the result of an
increase in premium income of $10.6 million, or 9.0 percent, to $128.3 million
in the first quarter of 1995 from $117.7 million in the first quarter of 1994.
Increased premium income in the packaged products, group
-17-
<PAGE> 20
life, and voluntary benefits lines of business contributed to this increase.
Net investment income declined by $1.0 million, or 4.5 percent, to $21.1
million in the first quarter of 1995 from $22.1 million in the first quarter of
1994.
Income in this segment declined $4.6 million, or 27.1 percent, to $12.4
million in the first quarter of 1995 from $17.0 million in the first quarter of
1994. Increased income in the medical stop-loss, voluntary benefits, and
packaged products lines of business only partially offset lower income in the
group life and group LTD lines of business. The group LTD line of business
produced a loss of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 1995 compared to income
of $1.6 million in the first quarter of 1994 due to higher claim incidence and
severity. The Company has notified the existing group LTD customers in the
medical and legal occupational classes that coverages will be terminated under
the terms of the existing contracts, and the Company will no longer accept
proposals for group disability coverage of new medical or legal groups. This
action will impact approximately 15 percent of the group LTD block of business,
which produced $58.9 million of direct premium income in 1994. The group life
line of business produced a decline in income to $3.6 million in the first
quarter of 1995 from $7.3 million in the first quarter of 1994 due primarily to
less favorable loss ratios in this line.
OTHER OPERATIONS
Revenue in the other operations segment declined $3.3 million, or 1.6
percent, to $208.9 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $212.2 million in
the first quarter of 1994. Net investment income declined $2.1 million, or 1.0
percent, to $202.2 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $204.3 million in
the first quarter of 1994. This was a result of the lower investment income
from the corporate (unallocated) capital and assets, which are included in this
segment, due to additional capital being allocated to the individual disability
line of business and from lower investment income in the group pension line due
to a decrease in funds under management. Premium income declined $1.8 million
to $4.9 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $6.7 million in the first
quarter of 1994 due to the discontinuation of the sale of group single premium
annuities.
Income in this segment increased $6.6 million, or 34.4 percent, to $25.8
million in the first quarter of 1995 from $19.2 million in the first quarter of
1994. Within this segment, the group pension line of business produced income
of $19.2 million in the first quarter of 1995, compared to $11.4 million in the
first quarter of 1994. This line of business benefited from an improvement in
the spread between interest credited on contracts and the interest earned on the
invested assets as well as lower expenses. The Company announced in December
1994, that it would discontinue the sale of traditional guaranteed investment
contracts (GICs). Traditional GICs under management declined $633.4 million, or
8.9 percent, to $6.49 billion at March 31, 1995, from $7.12 billion at March 31,
1994. Total funds under management and equivalents increased $234.7 million, or
2.4 percent, to $9.95 billion at March 31, 1995 from $9.72 billion at March 31,
1994. Included in this total are accumulated funds from the sale of synthetic
GICs which totaled $1.83 billion at March 31, 1995 compared to $951.4 million at
March 31, 1994.
-18-
<PAGE> 21
Deposits of synthetic GICs totaled $202.6 million in the first quarter of 1995,
$323.9 million in the first quarter of 1994, and $114.7 million in the fourth
quarter of 1994.
Income from the block of corporate-owned life insurance, included in the
other operations segment, improved to $5.0 million in the first quarter of 1995
from $4.1 million in the first quarter of 1994. Improved mortality experience
was a primary source of the higher income in this line of business.
MEDICAL SERVICES
Revenue in this segment increased $0.8 million, or 0.7 percent, to
$107.7 million in the first quarter of 1995 from $106.9 million in the first
quarter of 1994. The increase was the result of higher premium income, which
increased $1.4 million, or 2.1 percent, to $67.4 million in the first quarter of
1995 from $66.0 million in the first quarter of 1994. Administrative services
only (ASO) fees declined slightly to $28.5 million in the first quarter of 1995
from $28.9 million in the first quarter of 1994. Premium equivalents declined
$3.9 million, or 0.6 percent, to $630.6 million in the first quarter of 1995
from $634.5 million in the first quarter of 1994.
Income in this segment declined $6.4 million, or 75.3 percent, to $2.1
million in the first quarter of 1995 from $8.5 million in the first quarter of
1994. The results were primarily attributable to higher loss ratios on the
small case group health market in the first quarter of 1995 relative to the
first quarter of 1994, as well as losses associated with the HMO initiative and
expenses related to separation pay for terminated employees.
In December 1994, the Company entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Agreement") with Healthsource, Inc. under which Healthsource
will acquire the Company's medical services business for $310 million ($210
million in cash and $100 million in a new issue of Healthsource 6.25%
Convertible Preferred Stock). The Agreement is subject to regulatory approvals
and purchase price adjustments in certain circumstances. The parties are
currently negotiating certain matters relating to the purchase price adjustments
and other aspects of the Agreement in an effort to resolve open issues and close
the transaction. It is unclear whether the resolution of those matters will
have a material effect on the transaction. Under the Agreement disagreements
unresolved by the parties are submitted to arbitration. The transaction is
expected to close in the second quarter of 1995.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As a holding company, the Company is dependent upon payments from its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Provident Life Capital Corporation ("Capital"), to pay
dividends to its shareholders and to pay its expenses. Capital is also a
holding company and therefore dependent upon payments from its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Provident, to pay dividends, to meet its debt service obligations
and to pay its expenses. These payments by
-19-
<PAGE> 22
Provident may take the form of either dividends or interest payments on amounts
loaned to Provident by Capital.
State insurance laws generally restrict the ability of insurance
companies to pay cash dividends or make other payments to their affiliates in
excess of certain prescribed limitations. In Tennessee, the Company's state of
domicile, regulatory approval is required if an insurance company seeks to make
loans to affiliates in amounts equal to or in excess of 3 percent of the
insurer's admitted assets, or to pay cash dividends in excess of the greater of
such company's net gains from operations of the preceding year or 10 percent of
its surplus as regards policyholders, as determined at the end of the preceding
year in accordance with prescribed or permitted accounting practices. Under
these regulatory restrictions, up to $80.4 million would be available in 1995
for the payment of dividends or other distributions by the Company without
regulatory approval.
The Company's requirements are met primarily by cash flow provided from
operations, principally in Provident. Cash flow from operations has been
substantial over the past three years. Premium and investment income as well as
maturities and sales of invested assets provide the primary sources of cash.
Cash flows from operations were ample in the first quarter of 1995 and 1994.
Premium and investment income as well as maturities and sales of invested assets
provide the primary sources of cash. Cash is applied to the payment of policy
benefits, cost of acquiring new business (principally commissions) and operating
expenses as well as purchases of new investments. The Company has established
an investment strategy that management believes will provide for adequate cash
flow from operations.
The Company expects that the sale of the medical services business to
Healthsource will have no material adverse effect on its liquidity. The effect
of the transaction on the Company's capital is unclear at this time since it is
dependent on the purchase price received after any adjustments have been made,
as previously discussed in "Medical Services."
The Company expects no material adverse effect on its liquidity as a
result of the strategic decision to discontinue the sale of traditional GICs.
While traditionally the investment strategy for this product line has been to
match the effective asset durations with the related expected liability
durations, the Company is moving toward a cash-matching investment strategy. In
addition, management expects that capital from the GIC business will be
redeployed in other lines of business or used for other business purposes.
INVESTMENTS
Prior to 1992, the Company experienced increases in non-current
investments. For the past three years, however, the Company's exposure to such
investments improved from prior years. These non-current investments are
primarily foreclosed real estate investments, mortgage loans which became more
than thirty days past due in their
-20-
<PAGE> 23
principal and interest payments, and bonds and preferred stocks in default.
Non-current investments at March 31, 1995 were $101.5 million, or 0.68 percent
of invested assets. Non-current investments at year-end 1994 were $88.5
million, or 0.59 percent of invested assets, compared to $170.2 million, or
1.13 percent of invested assets, at year-end 1993.

The basic types of risk associated with mortgage lending are default
risk (that the borrower will fail to make payments as scheduled), interest rate
risk (that the interest rate charged to a borrower will fall below the lender's
cost of funds), and inflation risk (that the rate of return expected when the
loan was made does not adequately compensate the lender for actual inflation
over the term of the loan). Additionally, the secondary market for certain
types of mortgage loans can be highly illiquid.

</TABLE>
Management believes the amount of mortgage loan loss reserves is
adequate given the level of delinquent mortgage loans. Foreclosed real estate
is reported at the lower of cost or fair value.
Management does not expect the non-current mortgage loan and foreclosed
real estate investments to have a material adverse effect on its results of
operations, financial condition, or ability to hold its other investments to
maturity. This is primarily because of the relatively small amount of these
non-current investments compared to total invested assets and to the total of
high quality, liquid investments. Mortgage loans are placed on a non-accrual
status when the loan becomes thirty days late, and at that time all accruals on
such delinquent mortgage loans are reversed.
In addition, the Company actively manages its non-current investments
through sales and leasing of foreclosed real estate in order to achieve the
highest current return as well as to preserve capital. Write-downs and
provisions for losses on mortgage loans and real estate were $16.8 million for
the year 1994. During the first quarter of 1995, the Company increased the loss
provision by $1.5 million and released $4.6 million from the reserve as actual
losses were incurred. The net effect was a realized investment loss of $1.5
million. These losses are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the
-22-
<PAGE> 25
financial condition and results of the Company due to the strong capitalization
of the Company.
During the first three months of 1995, the Company sold five foreclosed
properties with a book value of $8.9 million. During 1994, the Company sold
thirteen foreclosed properties with a book value of $58.9 million at the date of
sale.
On May 10, 1995, the Company sold restructured mortgage loans with a
principal amount of $147.5 million and a book value of $122.6 million. The
Company received $99.5 million in cash for these restructured loans, which
resulted in a realized investment loss of $23.1 million. The Company is
actively exploring transactions which will reduce its exposure to both
restructured mortgage loans and currently performing mortgage loans either
through the outright sale of mortgage loans or the securitization of part or all
of the portfolio.
The Company's investment in mortgage-backed securities totaled $3.3
billion on an amortized cost basis at March 31, 1995, and December 31, 1994. At
March 31, 1995, the mortgage-backed securities had an average life of 6.4 years
and effective duration of 3.7 years. The mortgage-backed securities are valued
on a monthly basis using valuations supplied by the brokerage firms that are
dealers in these securities. The primary risk involved in investing in
mortgage-backed securities is the uncertainty of the timing of cash flows from
the underlying loans due to prepayments of principal. The Company uses models
which incorporate economic variables and possible future interest rate scenarios
to predict future prepayment rates. The Company has not invested in
mortgage-backed derivatives, such as interest-only, principal-only or residuals,
where market values can be highly volatile relative to changes in interest
rates.
As with most other fixed income investments, below-investment-grade
bonds are subject to the effects of changes in the overall level of interest
rates, which can affect both capital and reinvestment return.
Below-investment-grade bonds are inherently more risky than investment-grade
bonds since the risk of default by the issuer, by definition and as exhibited by
bond rating, is higher. Also, the secondary market for certain
below-investment-grade issues can be highly illiquid. Management does not
anticipate any liquidity problem being caused by the investments in
below-investment-grade securities, nor does it expect these investments to
adversely affect its ability to hold its other investments to maturity. Adverse
events occurring in the market for this type of investment in the last 5-10
years are not reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on results
of operations or the financial condition of the Company primarily because of the
minimal exposure to such investments.
The Company's exposure to below-investment-grade fixed maturities at
March 31, 1995 was $706.1 million, representing 4.7 percent of invested assets,
below the internal limit of 7.5 percent of investment assets for this type of
investment. The Company's exposure to below-investment-grade fixed maturities
at December 31, 1994, was $694.8 million, or 4.6 percent of invested assets.
-23-
<PAGE> 26
The rise in interest rates during 1994 caused the duration of assets to
lengthen. In the group pension business, the duration of liabilities is
becoming much shorter since very few new sales have been made. Following the
completion in the third quarter of 1994 of an analysis of cash flows, the
Company began adjusting the investment portfolio supporting its group pension
business. In the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company announced that it would
discontinue the sale of traditional GICs as a part of its overall strategic
review. As a result, further actions were taken in the investment portfolio to
move to a cash-matched basis instead of a duration-matched basis. In the fourth
quarter of 1994, the investment portfolio of Provident National Assurance
Company ("PNAC"), one of the Company's subsidiaries through which group pension
products are marketed, was rebalanced. Approximately $220 million of long
duration bonds were sold to fund maturing liabilities, and the balance was
reinvested in shorter duration bonds in order to minimize the exposure to
interest rate changes. Approximately $7 million in capital losses was realized
from the sale of longer duration assets. In addition, the future sales value of
approximately $700 million in assets held by PNAC has been hedged by entering
into $200 million (notional value) of futures contracts and $500 million
(notional value) of forward interest rate swaps. The net asset and hedge losses
that could potentially be realized over the next two years are presently
estimated to be approximately $30 million within a range of $3 million to $6
million per quarter, assuming interest rates do not increase more than 100 basis
points and asset spreads do not change dramatically. In addition, in the fourth
quarter of 1994 the Company used forward interest rate swaps to hedge $300
million of anticipated future asset sales in the group pension product portfolio
of Provident, the other of the Company's subsidiaries through which group
pension products are marketed.
The decline in interest rates during the first three months of 1995 has
improved the cash-matched position of the group pension portfolio. Management
has added resources in the investment area to address modeling and testing all
asset and liability portfolios to improve interest rate risk management.
Review by Independent Auditors
