NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
On June 26, 1995, two shareholders and an officer of a former agent (the
"Primary Plaintiffs") of Star Insurance Company ("Star"), which is a subsidiary
of the Company, and a former spouse of one shareholder and an employee of the
former agent (the "Individual Plaintiffs") initiated legal proceedings against,
among others, Star and Meadowbrook. All of the plaintiffs requested injunctive
relief, compensatory damages, punitive and exemplary damages, and attorney's
fees in an unspecified amount. The Nevada Insurance Department revoked the
license of one of the Primary Plaintiffs and one of the Individual Plaintiffs
and denied further licensing of the other Primary Plaintiffs.
The Company is vigorously defending itself and has filed counterclaims
against all of the plaintiffs. On April 1, 1998, the court issued an order
dismissing all claims of the Primary Plaintiffs with prejudice. The court's
order is subject to appeal. The case will proceed on the claims of the
Individual Plaintiffs, as well as the counterclaims of Meadowbrook and Star
against the Primary Plaintiffs and Individual Plaintiffs.
While the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses and
counterclaims in this lawsuit, there can be no assurance that the Company's
results of operations and financial condition will not be materially adversely
affected by this lawsuit. The ultimate outcome of the lawsuit cannot be
determined at this time, and the Company is unable to estimate the range of
possible loss, if any.
MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION
In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments
of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
periods. Preparation of financial statements under GAAP requires management to
make estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Interim
results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the entire year.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1997
Annual Report to Shareholders, as filed on Form 10-K to the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
ACQUISITION
On April 30, 1998, the Company acquired for $4.5 million in cash and 33,433
shares of the Company's common stock the Florida-based insurance agencies
Villari & Associates, Inc. and National Support Systems, Inc. (collectively
referred to as "Villari"). This transaction was accounted for as a purchase and
the operating results of Villari were consolidated into the Company's financial
statements beginning this quarter. Goodwill of $5.6 million was recorded as
part of this transaction, which is being amortized over a 20 year period on a
straight-line basis.
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was $7.1 million, an increase
of $678,000, or 10.5%, from $6.5 million for the same period in 1997. The
increase in net income reflects growth in existing program business, as well as
contributions made by our recent acquisitions. Specifically, net earned premiums
increased $8.2 million and losses and loss adjustment expenses increased $2.4
million from 1997 due to growth in existing business and an aberration in losses
during the prior year. Commissions and fees have increased $5.2 million over the
prior year primarily from acquisitions. Non-claims related expenses have
increased a total of $10.5 million, as a result of an aberration during the
prior year and additional expenses from growth in existing operations and
acquisitions during the current year.
REVENUE
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was $60.8 million, an increase
of $14.0 million, or 29.9%, from 1997's revenue of $46.8 million.

Risk Management Fees and Commissions
The Company's risk management fees and commission income generated from its
managed program operations and retail agency operations consists of the
following:

</TABLE>
Net fees and commission income increased by $5.2 million, or 47.4%, to $16.3
million for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 from $11.0 million for the
same period in 1997. The majority, or $4.5 million, of the increase is the
result of additional revenue generated from acquisitions, primarily the Crest
Financial acquisition made in July 1997 and the Villari acquisition made this
quarter. The remainder of the increase is the result of growth in existing fee
based operations.
Insurance Premiums
The Company's gross premiums written increased $29.4 million, or 46.3%, to $93.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $63.5 million for the same
period in 1997, primarily due to growth in existing programs and new programs
started in 1998. Existing business grew by $16.3 million, or 32.5%, to $66.5
million. New business generated $14.8 in additional premium in 1998. This growth
was partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in premium on discontinued
programs from prior years, which includes the surety bond program. The growth in
existing business reflects new programs added in the latter half of 1997.
Net premiums written increased by $7.4 million, or 21.5%, to $41.9 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $34.5 million for the same period in
1997. Existing business grew by $6.2 million, accounting for almost the entire
increase. New business accounted for the remainder of the increase, generating
$1.7 in additional premium. The greater increase of gross over net written
premium reflects the addition of two new programs in which the Company retains
limited risk.
Net premiums earned increased by $8.2 million, or 26.0%, to $40.0 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $31.8 million for the same period in
1997. Existing business grew by $9.0 million, reflecting expansion of core
programs, the acquisition of Crest, and new programs added in 1997.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income increased by $507,000 or 12.7%, to $4.5 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 from $4.0 million for the same period in the
prior year. The pre-tax
10
<PAGE> 11
weighted average yield on invested assets was 5.3% for the first six months of
both 1998 and 1997. The Company's investment philosophy is one of maximizing
after-tax earnings through significant investments in tax-exempt bonds.
Accordingly, the weighted average yield on invested assets on an after-tax basis
was 4.7% in 1998, which is consistent with the prior year of 4.8%.
EXPENSES
Total expenses increased $12.9 million, or 33.7%, to $51.1 million at June 30,
1998 from $38.2 million for the same period in 1997.

Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses (LAE) Incurred
Losses and LAE incurred increased by $2.4 million, or 12.4%, to $21.5 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $19.1 million for the same period in
1997. The growth in losses and LAE is partially offset by an aberration in 1997
involving the run off of claims on the surety bond book of business.
Adjusting for the aberration, losses and LAE incurred increased by 32.4%, rather
than 12.4%, from the prior year. This increase is consistent with the
growth in the Company's earned premium. Analyzing losses and LAE in relation to
earned premium utilizing GAAP insurance ratios adjusted in 1997 for the
aberration, the loss and LAE ratio for the first six months of 1998 is 57.4%,
which is comparable to 55.5% for the same period in 1997.
Salaries and Employee Benefits
Salaries and employee benefits increased by $4.0, or 32.1%, to $16.6 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $12.6 million for the same period
in 1997. The majority, or $2.8 million, of the increase is the result of
additional staff from acquisitions, primarily the Crest Financial acquisition
made in July 1997. The remainder of the increase is the due to new associates
added to handle the increase in new business opportunities and information
technology initiatives.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses increased by $5.9 million, or 92.7%, to $12.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $6.4 million for the same period in
1997. Analyzing expenses utilizing GAAP insurance ratios, the expense ratio
increased to 33.4% in 1998, from 24.1% in 1997. A major part of this increase
is due to an aberration in
11
<PAGE> 12
expenses in 1997. Underwriting expenses were reduced by a $2.9 million ceding
commission from the Connecticut Surety arrangement in the prior year. Adjusting
for this aberration, expenses increased by $3.0 million, or 32.7%, from the
prior year as a result of additional expenses from growth in existing operations
and acquisitions during the current year. The insurance expense ratio in 1997,
adjusted for the aberration, would have been 33.3%, which is consistent with the
1998 ratio of 33.4%.
Interest Expense
Interest expense of $628,000 and $108,000 was recorded for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This interest related to use of the
Company's line of credit. The increase in interest expense is a result of a
higher average daily loan balance during the first two quarters of 1998 as
compared to 1997. The Company drew on this line of credit during 1998 primarily
to meet acquisition cash flow needs.
Federal Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $2.5 million for the six months ended June
30, 1998, and $2.1 million for the same period in 1997, representing effective
tax rates of 26.0% and 24.2%, respectively. These tax rates were significantly
lower than the 34% corporate rate due to the Company's heavily tax-exempt
investment portfolio. The slight increase in the Company's effective tax rate
over 1997 reflects the repositioning of the Williamsburg Insurance Company,
subsidiary of Crest Financial, investment portfolio during the quarter.
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 was $3.9 million, an increase of
$368,000 or 10.5%, from $3.5 million for the same period in 1997. Revenue
increased by $7.4 million, expenses increased by $6.8 million, and taxes
increased by $323,000. This was primarily due to growth in existing operations
and acquisitions.
REVENUE
Revenue increased by $7.4 million, or 30.5%, to $31.8 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998 compared to $24.4 million for the same period in 1997.
Earned premium increased by $4.0 million, or 23.5%, while net fees and
commissions increased by $3.1 million, or 57.6%, and net investment income
increased by $339,000, or 16.7%, for the quarter. Earned premium from existing
business grew by $4.5 million, reflecting expansion of core programs, the
acquisition of Crest, and new programs added in 1997. The increase in net fee
and commissions for the quarter is mainly the result of additional fee revenue
generated from the Crest and Villari acquisitions, and partially due to growth
in existing fee based operations. Investment income has grown as a result of
increases in cash and invested assets.
EXPENSES
Expenses increased by $6.8 million, or 34.1%, to $26.5 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998 compared to $19.8 million for the same period in 1997.
Adjusting for the aberrations mentioned in the year-to-date section, net losses
and LAE incurred increased by $2.8 million,
12
<PAGE> 13
or 33.3%, other operating expenses increased by $1.4 million, or 28.5%, and
salaries and employee benefits increased by $2.3 million, or 36.9%. Losses and
LAE have increased primarily from the growth in earned premium. Other operating
expenses are up from 1997 as a result of additional expenses from growth in
existing operations and acquisitions during the current year. Salaries and
employee benefits have increased primarily due to the additional employees from
acquisitions, and in part due to new associates added to handle the increase in
new business opportunities and information technology initiatives.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes was $1.4 million for the quarter ended June 30,
1998, and $1.1 million for the same period in 1997, representing effective tax
rates of 27.2% and 24.2%, respectively. These tax rates were significantly lower
than the 34% corporate rate due to the Company's heavily tax-exempt investment
portfolio. The quarterly increase in the Company's effective tax rate over 1997
is a temporary result of the repositioning of the Williamsburg Insurance Company
investment portfolio. The Company expects the tax rate to return to a consistent
rate as recently acquired companies become fully integrated.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The principal sources of funds for the Company are insurance premiums,
investment income, proceeds from the maturity and sale of invested assets, risk
management fees and agency commissions. Funds are primarily used for the payment
of claims, commissions, salaries and employee benefits, and other operating
expenses. In addition, the Company has a high volume of intercompany
transactions due to the payment of management fees by the insurance subsidiaries
to the risk management subsidiaries. Such fees are subject to regulatory
approval by state insurance departments.
Cash flow provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
$6.0 million as compared to $11.4 million used in operations for the same period
in 1997. Cash flow has significantly improved from the prior year since 1997
reflects negative cash flow from the Connecticut Surety transaction, combined
with the run off of bonds and other discontinued programs. At June 30, 1998,
the Company held $15.9 million in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company has one unsecured line of credit totaling $50.0 million, of which
$16.9 million was outstanding at June 30, 1998. $11.5 million was outstanding at
December 31, 1997 and $3.9 million at June 30, 1997. The line expires on January
1, 2000. The Company drew on this line of credit during 1998 primarily to meet
acquisition cash flow needs.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
The Company is modifying all software that is not Year 2000 compliant. The
Company is utilizing both internal and external resources to program or replace
and test the software for Year 2000 modifications. The Company anticipates that
this exercise will be completed by the end of 1998 and will not be a materaial
cost.
