INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Participants of The PMI Group, Inc. 401(K) Plan
 and Board of Directors of The PMI Group, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
(modified cash basis) of The PMI Group, Inc. 401(K) Plan (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits (modified cash basis) for the year ended December 31,
1996 and for the period from April 1, 1995 (inception date) to December 31,
1995.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, these financial statements
were prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive
basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, information regarding the net assets available for benefits of the
Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available
for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the period from April
1, 1995 (inception date) to December 31, 1995, on the basis of accounting
described in Note 2.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules (modified cash
basis) listed in the Table of Contents are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic 1996 financial
statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information by fund is
presented for the purpose of additional analysis of the basic financial
statements rather than to present information regarding the net assets available
for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of the individual
funds, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The
supplemental schedules and supplemental fund information are the responsibility
of the Plan's management. Such supplemental schedules and supplemental fund
information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit
of the basic financial 
<PAGE>
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as whole on the
basis of accounting described in Note 2.

THE PMI GROUP, INC. 401(K) PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (MODIFIED CASH BASIS)
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND PERIOD FROM
APRIL 1, 1995 (INCEPTION DATE) TO DECEMBER 31, 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

   The following brief description of The PMI Group, Inc. 401(K) Plan (the
   "Plan") is provided for general information only.  Participants should refer
   to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
   provisions.

   GENERAL - The Plan was established on April 1, 1995.  The Plan is a defined
   contribution plan covering all full-time and regular part-time employees of
   The PMI Group, Inc. (the "Company").  The Plan is available to those
   employees who have completed one year of service.  It is subject to the
   provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

   Contributions are invested in any of the following Wells Fargo Bank
   investment funds:

   .  SHORT-INTERMEDIATE TERM FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in a
      broad range of debt securities with short-to-intermediate term maturities.

   .  INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in the
      stocks of established companies based in Europe, Australia and the Far
      East.

   .  S & P MIDCAP STOCK FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in mid-
      sized companies which are expected to grow faster than larger, more
      established companies.

   .  S & P 500 STOCK FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in companies
      to match the performance of the S&P 500.

   .  LIFEPATH FUND - Amounts within these funds are invested in stocks, bonds
      and money market instruments.

   .  WELLS FARGO MONEY MARKET FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in
      high quality money market securities.

   .  PRIOR EMPLOYER FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in a broad
      range of money market type securities with short-to-intermediate term
      maturities.

   .  PMI STOCK FUND - Amounts within this fund are invested in common stock of
      the Company.

   The Plan is administered by the Company.  The trustee of the Plan is Wells
   Fargo Bank.

   CONTRIBUTIONS - The participants may contribute up to 17% of their annual
   compensation, as defined, not to exceed the ERISA limit of $9,500 and $9,240
   for 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The Company's cash contributions total 25%
   of each eligible participant's pre-tax contributions for the period, not to
   exceed 6% of the participant's eligible pay, with an additional discretionary
   stock contribution up to 50%, not to exceed 6% of eligible pay.  In 1997, the
   Company made a $476,904 cash contribution 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
   related to the 1996 Plan year. In addition, the Company made an additional
   discretionary stock contribution of $705,818 in 1997 related to the 1996 Plan
   year.

   PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS - Each participant's account is credited with the
   participant's and Company's prescribed contributions and an allocation of
   Plan earnings.  Allocations are based on participant's compensation or
   account balances, as defined in the Plan.  The maximum annual addition to
   each participant's account, as defined, may not exceed the lesser of 25% of
   the participant's compensation for the year or $30,000.  Except as otherwise
   provided, the participants do not maintain any interest in any specific asset
   of the respective funds but have the right to receive accrued benefits in
   accordance with the terms of the Plan.

   VESTING - Employer contributions, employee contributions and Plan earnings
   are fully vested to all participant accounts at all times.

   PARTICIPANT WITHDRAWALS - Withdrawals from the Plan are available upon
   hardship in accordance with Plan provisions.  Upon termination of employment,
   a participant may elect to receive a lump sum benefit.  Upon attaining age 59
   1/2, participants may elect to receive either a lump-sum amount equal to
   their vested account balance or a portion paid in a lump sum with the
   remainder paid at a later date.  At age 70-1/2, if no amount has been
   previously paid out, a participant may be required to take a partial
   withdrawal in accordance with the Plan document.

   PLAN TERMINATION - In the event of Plan termination, the full value of all
   participants' accounts would become fully vested and lump sum distributions
   to participants would be made in accordance with the Plan.  Although it has
   not expressed any intention to do so, the Company has the right under the
   Plan to suspend, terminate or completely discontinue contributions.

   PARTICIPANT LOANS - In 1996, the Company amended the Plan to allow
   participants to obtain loans in an amount not to exceed $50,000 or 50% of the
   participant's vested accrued benefit under the Plan.  As of December 31,
   1996, 63 loans with interest rates of 9.25% were outstanding with maturities
   ranging from July 15, 1997 to December 15, 2001.  These loans are being
   repaid over one year to five years at the prime interest rate in effect on
   the date the loan was obtained plus 1%.  The loans are fully collateralized
   by the participants' remaining vested account balance.

   PLAN EXPENSES - Plan expenses are paid by the Company.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on
   the modified cash basis.  Transactions are primarily recorded upon receipt
   and disbursement of cash, except for investments which are stated at current
   market value. Certain revenues and the related assets are recognized when
   received rather than when earned, and certain expenses are recognized when
   paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. Accordingly, the
   accompanying financial statements are not intended to be a presentation in
   conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

   VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS - Investments in mutual funds are stated at market
   values, determined on the basis of quotations obtained from national
   securities exchanges.  Investment transactions are recorded on the settlement
   date.

   COST OF SECURITIES SOLD - The cost of mutual and equity fund shares sold, as
   used to calculate realized gains and losses on disposition of mutual and
   equity fund shares, is determined using the average cost basis.

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
   PAYMENT OF BENEFITS - Distributions to participants are recorded when paid.

   Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
   with the modified cash basis of accounting requires management to make
   estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
   liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
   of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
   during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
   estimates.

3. TAX STATUS

   The Plan obtained its latest determination letter dated October 15, 1996, in
   which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed,
   was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue
   Code.  The Plan has been amended since receiving this determination letter.
   Management of the Company believes that the Plan is currently designed and
   being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
   Revenue Code.  Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in
   the Plan's financial statements.

4. UNIT AND NET ASSET VALUE

5. TRANSFER FROM PRIOR PLAN

   In April of 1995, Allstate, which was the sole shareholder, sold 70% of the
   Company's common stock in an underwritten public offering.  The employees'
   fund balances remained in the Allstate Savings and Profit Sharing Plan until
   the funds were transferred to the Plan on July 26, 1996.  The value of the
   cash and stock on the transfer date was $12,727,837.  All participant
   accounts became fully vested when the assets were transferred.
