</TABLE>
The fair values for fixed maturity securities are based on quoted market prices,
where available. For fixed maturity securities not actively traded, fair values
are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or, in the
case of private placements, are estimated by discounting expected future cash
flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality, and
maturity of the investments.
The amortized cost and fair value of fixed maturity securities at March 31,
1995, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ
from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or
prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS AS OF AND FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1994
REVENUES
Increased revenues are directly related to increased accident and health earned
premiums. The group accident and health premium mix has remained stable from
1994 to 1995 (medical-- averaging 65%, disability income-- averaging 19% and
dental-- averaging 16%). During 1994, medical premium grew primarily from the
impact of New York State Regulation 145 "Open Enrollment and Community Rating of
Individual and Small Group Health Insurance" ("Community Rating"). On-going
marketing efforts increased disability income and dental premiums.
First Fortis' life premiums are principally composed of group fully insured
coverages. In mid 1994, a minimum premium account lapsed. This account did not
have a significant impact on the Company's operating results. On-going marketing
efforts increased group fully insured premium from 1994 to 1995.
The Company continues to match investment portfolio composition to liquidity
needs and capital requirements. Changes in interest rates during 1995 and 1994
resulted in recognition of realized gains and losses.
BENEFITS
The group life claims ratio was higher than expected in the first quarter 1994
as a result of higher death claims. In 1995, mortality experience returned to a
level that is consistent with product pricing assumptions.
Improved recovery rates on existing group disability income claimants were
offset by a Community Rating medical loss ratio that exceeded product pricing
assumptions. Premium rate actions are expected to improve medical and
disability income results later in 1995.
COMMISSIONS
First Fortis continues to monitor its commission rate structure, and, as
indicated by market conditions, periodically adjusts rates paid. Commission
rates paid are dependent upon product type, group size and duration. The
increase in the commissions to premiums ratio reflects the change in the mix
of business in force.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The liquidity requirements of the Company have been met by funds provided from
operations. Funds are principally used to provide for policy benefits and
reserves, operating expenses,
<PAGE>
commissions and investment purchases. The Company expects its operating
activities to continue to generate sufficient funds.
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners' risk-based capital formula
helps to establish guidelines for capital levels. At March 31, 1995, First
Fortis' capital exceeded the minimum recommended risk-based capital level.
As of March 31, 1995, 99.5% of the Company's fixed maturity securities consisted
of investment grade bonds.
REGULATION
First Fortis is subject to the laws and regulations established by the New York
State Insurance Department governing insurance business conducted in New York
State. Periodic audits are conducted by the New York Insurance Department
related to the Company's compliance with these laws and regulations. To date
there have been no adverse findings regarding First Fortis operations.
First Fortis closely monitors state and national medical insurance legislative
activity, and its potential effect on the Company's marketing approach.
