THE NAVIGATORS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) Accounting Policies
The interim financial statements are unaudited but reflect all
adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to
provide a fair statement of the results of The Navigators Group, Inc.
and its subsidiaries (the "Company") for the interim periods
presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of results for the full year. These financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1994.
(2) Acquisition of the Somerset Companies
On June 30, 1994, the stockholders of the Company approved eight
substantially identical agreements of merger providing for the
acquisition by the Company of eight affiliated underwriting agencies,
Somerset Marine, Inc., Somerset of Georgia, Inc., Somerset Insurance
Services of Texas, Inc., Somerset Insurance Services of California,
Inc., Somerset Insurance Services of Washington, Inc., Somerset
Property, Inc., Somerset Re Management, Inc. and Navigators Management
Corporation, collectively known as the Somerset Companies.
The Company issued 2,875,000 shares of its common stock for all the
outstanding common stock of the Somerset Companies. The mergers were
accounted for under a method of accounting similar to "pooling of
interests."
(3) Reinsurance Ceded
The Company's ceded earned premiums were $18,803,311 and $29,705,134
for the three months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and
were $39,843,239 and $58,733,344 for the six months ended June 30,
1995 and 1994, respectively. The Company's ceded losses were
$17,350,103 and $26,699,643 for the three months ended June 30, 1995
and 1994, respectively, and were $36,704,896 and $117,861,553 for the
six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
(4) Commitments and Contingencies
In February 1995, the Insurance Commissioner of the State of
California, in accordance with voter referendum "Proposition 103,"
provided the Company with an initial notification of a rollback of
premium rates. In addition, the Company is a defendant in various
legal actions arising from the normal
-5-
<PAGE> 8
course of its business. Management does not believe that the outcome
of these actions will result in a material adverse effect to the
Company.

THE NAVIGATORS GROUP, INC.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
GENERAL
The Company is a holding company with 12 wholly owned
subsidiaries.
Two of the Company's subsidiaries, Navigators Insurance
Company and NIC Insurance Company ("NIC"), specialize principally in
underwriting marine, aviation and property (including inland marine) insurance
and certain lines of specialty reinsurance and non-marine insurance.
Navigators Insurance Company has been active since 1983. NIC is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Navigators, was licensed in 1989 and began operations during
1990. Navigators Insurance Company and NIC are collectively referred to herein
as "Navigators."
Eight of the Company's subsidiaries, Somerset Marine, Inc.,
Somerset of Georgia, Inc., Somerset Insurance Services of Texas, Inc., Somerset
Insurance Services of California, Inc., Somerset Insurance Services of
Washington, Inc., Somerset Property, Inc., Somerset Re Management, Inc. and
Navigators Management Corporation (collectively, the "Somerset Companies"), are
a group of underwriting management companies which produce, manage and
underwrite insurance and reinsurance for Navigators and nine other unrelated
insurance companies. The other subsidiaries of the Company are Somerset
Casualty Agency, Inc. and Somerset Marine Aviation Property Managers Inc.,
which are both inactive.
The Somerset Companies were acquired by the Company pursuant
to mergers that were approved by the stockholders of the Company at a special
meeting held June 30, 1994. The Company accounted for the transfer of the
Somerset Companies' assets and liabilities at historical cost under a method of
accounting similar to "pooling of interests" and, accordingly, has reported
results of operations as if the Company and the Somerset Companies had been
combined as of January 1, 1994.
The Company's revenue is primarily comprised of premiums,
commissions and investment income. Navigators derives substantially all of its
business from direct participation in, or by reinsuring certain members of,
insurance pools managed by the Somerset Companies. The insurance business and
operations of Navigators are managed by one of the Somerset Companies,
Navigators Management Corporation.
The Somerset Companies specialize principally in four lines of
business: marine, aviation and property (including inland marine) insurance and
certain lines of specialty reinsurance and non-marine insurance. They
underwrite this business through four syndicates of insurance companies,
Navigators having the largest participation in each of the four syndicates.
The Somerset
-7-
<PAGE> 10
Companies derive their revenue from commissions, investment income and service
fees from Navigators and other insurers. Commissions are earned both on a
fixed percentage of premiums and on underwriting profits on business placed
with the participating insurance companies within the four syndicates.
Property and casualty insurance premiums are cyclical in nature and,
accordingly, during a "hard market" demand for property and casualty insurance
exceeds supply, or capacity, and as a result, premiums and commissions
increase. On the downturn of the property and casualty cycle, supply exceeds
demand, and as a result, premiums and commissions decrease.
Navigators and the Somerset Companies earn investment income
on cash balances and invested assets. The Somerset Companies also earn
investment income on fiduciary funds. Such fiduciary funds are invested,
subject to applicable insurance regulations, primarily in short-term
instruments.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General. The 1994 results of operations of the Company were
dominated by the Northridge, California earthquake, which occurred on January
17, 1994. The Company's pre-tax loss in 1994 from the Northridge Earthquake
totalled $39,265,000.
As a result of this loss, management has restructured the
Company by withdrawing from the large commercial and industrial property
business which produced most of the earthquake loss, emphasizing its core ocean
marine business, and developing its inland marine business as well as a new
non-marine program book of business.
The results of the second quarter of 1995 reflect this
restructuring in that premiums have been reduced while the continuing book of
business has produced profits.
However, the results also reflect the continued deterioration
of losses from the Northridge Earthquake. During the six months ended June 30,
1995, the total gross losses on direct property claims arising from the
Northridge Earthquake increased $16,738,000 from $125,361,000 to $142,099,000.
During the three months ended June 30, 1995, the total gross losses on direct
property claims arising from the Northridge Earthquake increased $10,668,000
from $131,431,000 to $142,099,000. The net loss to the Company from this
increase was $6,221,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1995 and $3,641,000 in
the three months ended June 30, 1995, which includes $912,000 of additional
recoveries on losses reported in prior periods. There can be no assurance
given that additional losses will not be reported or adjustments made to
existing reserves.
Revenues. Gross written premium for the first six months of
1995 decreased by 30% to $69,212,000 from $98,822,000 for the first six months
of 1994.

The following table sets forth Navigators' gross written
premium by line of business and net written premium in the aggregate:

====== =======
</TABLE>
Marine Premium. Gross marine premium written decreased 15%
when comparing the first six months of 1995 to the first six months of 1994.
Management believes this decrease is due to the timing of certain policies and
does not reflect the actual condition of its marine business. It anticipates
that the total amount of marine business written in 1995 will be similar to the
amount written in 1994.
Aviation Premium. Gross aviation premium written decreased 7%
from the first six months of 1994 to the first six months of 1995. Following
an evaluation of its aviation business, management has decided to reduce its
participation in airline and aircraft product business, two segments of its
aviation business. The Company expects aviation premium to be substantially
less for the 1995 year than it was in 1994.
Property Premium. Gross property and inland marine premium
written decreased 79% from the first six months of 1994 to the first six months
of 1995. In 1994, this business consisted primarily of large commercial and
industrial risks with a relatively small amount of inland marine risks. In
late 1994, Navigators decided to cease writing large commercial and industrial
property risks, which is essentially a property catastrophe book of business,
and to concentrate on the inland marine risks and, therefore, 1995 gross
written premium is primarily inland marine.
Specialty Reinsurance and Non-Marine Insurance Premium. Gross
specialty reinsurance and non-marine insurance premium
-9-
<PAGE> 12
written decreased 15% from the first six months of 1994 to the first six months
of 1995. The decrease was due primarily to management's decision to cease
writing proportional reinsurance. Management is now developing non-marine
program business to augment its reinsurance book.
Ceded Premium. The decrease in ceded premium corresponds with
the decrease in gross writings along with reinstatement premiums incurred
during the first six months of 1994 due primarily to the Northridge Earthquake.
Total Premium. Net earned premium for the first six months of
1995 was $38,652,000 as compared to $46,465,000 for the first six months of
1994. Net earned premium generally follows the pattern of written premium.
Commission income, based on gross premiums earned and net
underwriting profits, remained substantially level during the first six months
of 1995 at approximately $5,474,000 compared to approximately $5,502,000 during
the corresponding period in 1994.
Investment income increased 8% to approximately $6,854,000
during the first six months of 1995 from approximately $6,373,000 during the
corresponding period in 1994. This increase is due primarily to the increased
amount of invested assets.
Included in pre-tax net income were $314,000 in realized
capital gains for the first six months of 1995 and $256,000 in realized capital
gains for the same period last year. On an after tax basis these represent
realized gains of $0.03 and $0.02 per share for the respective periods.
Expenses. The ratio of loss and loss adjustment expenses
incurred to net premiums earned was 71.4% and 133.6% during the first six
months of 1995 and 1994, respectively. The 1994 loss ratio includes losses
from the Northridge Earthquake which at that time totalled $29,448,000. The
decrease is due primarily to a return to more normal experience in comparison
to the losses from the Northridge Earthquake, various airline losses and
reinsurance costs in 1994.
Commission expense as a percentage of net premiums earned were
15.2% and 17.9% during the first six months of 1995 and 1994, respectively.
This decrease is reflective of increased reinstatement premium payments to
reinsurers in 1994 as a result of the Northridge Earthquake.
Other operating expenses increased 1% to approximately
$11,133,000 during the first six months of 1995 from approximately $11,025,000
during the corresponding period in 1994. Severance charges as a result of a
reduction in staff accounted for $820,000 of the operating expenses for the
first six months of 1995. These severance charges were offset by a
commensurate decrease in salary expenses and a decrease in guaranty fund
assessments.
-10-
<PAGE> 13
Interest expense reflected during the first six months of 1995
is attributable to revolving credit loans and a term loan provided for by a
credit agreement entered into on August 5, 1994. The term loan's principal was
reduced from $22,500,000 at December 31, 1994 to $20,000,000 at June 30, 1995.
The revolving credit loans were reduced by $2,000,000 from $3,000,000 at
December 31, 1994 to $1,000,000 at June 30, 1995.
The effective tax rate was a 17.7% expense and a 42.8% benefit
for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. For 1995, the
effective rate is less than the statutory federal, state and local rates due
primarily to tax-free investment income earned.
For the first six months of 1995, the Company had after tax
income of $5,031,000 compared to an after tax loss of $16,648,000 for the same
period last year, primarily due to a return to normal experience in comparison
to the losses from the Northridge Earthquake. On a per share basis, this
represents net income of $0.61 and a net loss of $2.03 for the first six
months of 1995 and 1994, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash flow from operations was $11,069,000 and
$(215,000) for the first six months of 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Investment assets grew at the rate of 6% during the first six
months of 1995 to $214,217,000 at June 30, 1995. Investment income during the
six months was $6,854,000, an increase of 8%, reflecting increased assets.
The Company has entered into a credit agreement dated as of
August 5, 1994. Pursuant to the credit agreement, the Company may borrow,
subject to certain conditions, up to an aggregate of $5,000,000 in revolving
credit loans. As of June 30, 1995, the Company had outstanding $1,000,000 in
revolving credit loans.
As of June 30, 1995, the Company's consolidated stockholders'
equity was $87,706,000, an increase from $77,523,000 as of December 31, 1994.
As of August 4, 1995, the Company has paid approximately
$91,727,000 of claims related to the Northridge Earthquake, of which
approximately $70,412,000 is subject to indemnification by reinsurers. To date
the Company has experienced no significant difficulties collecting reinsured
losses.
