See notes to financial statements. FIRST GREAT-WEST LIFE & ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Unaudited) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION First Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the Company) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the Parent Corporation or GWL&A). The Company was incorporated as a stock life insurance company in the State of New York and was capitalized on April 4, 1997. The Company was licensed as an insurance company in the State of New York on May 28, 1997. The financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to interim financial reporting and do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, these statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2000. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2001. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2000 financial statements to conform to the 2001 presentation. 2. OTHER On December 31, 2000, the Company and certain affiliated companies completed a corporate reorganization. Prior to December 31, 2000, GWL&A Financial, was an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of The Great-West Life Assurance Company (GWL). Under the new structure, GWL&A Financial and GWL each continue to be indirectly and directly, respectively, owned by Great-West Lifeco Inc., a Canadian holding company (the Parent or Lifeco), but GWL no longer holds an equity interest in the Company or GWL&A Financial. Refer to the Company's report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, for additional information on the Company's organization. On October 6, 1999, the Parent entered into an agreement (the Agreement) with Allmerica Financial Corporation (Allmerica) to acquire Allmerica's group life and health insurance business on March 1, 2000. The policies resident in the State of New York have been assigned to the Company as part of the Agreement. This business primarily consists of administrative services only and stop loss policies. The in-force business is expected to be underwritten and retained by the Company upon each policy renewal date. The purchase price was based on a percentage of the premium and administrative fees in-force at March 1, 2000, and March 1, 2001, 1.9 million and 370 thousand, respectively. ITEM 2.

GENERAL This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. In particular, statements using verbs such as "expect," "anticipate," "believe" or words of similar import generally involve forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, forward-looking statements include statements which represent the Company's beliefs concerning future or projected levels of sales of the Company's products, investment spreads or yields, or the earnings or profitability of the Company's activities. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. Whether or not actual results differ materially from forward-looking statements may depend on numerous foreseeable and unforeseeable events or developments, some of which may be national in scope, such as general economic conditions and interest rates, some of which may be related to the insurance industry generally, such as pricing competition, regulatory developments and industry consolidation, and others of which may relate to the Company specifically, such as credit, volatility and other risks associated with the Company's investment portfolio, and other factors. Readers are also directed to consider other risks and uncertainties discussed in documents filed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion addresses the financial condition of the Company as of March 31, 2001, compared with December 31, 2000, and its results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared with the same period last year. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis section included in the Company's report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2000, to which the reader is directed, for additional information. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company's net income decreased $540 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. This decrease was primarily due to poor morbidity experience in the group health business and increased expenses associated with a refinement of the administrative services agreement. Premium and fee income increased $1.3 million for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000, which is due to increased premiums and fees related to the group health and life business acquired from Allmerica. Net investment income increased $566 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000, primarily due to an increase in invested assets related to Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI). The Company had a realized investment gain of $492 thousand during the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The gain was the result of investment yield enhancement activity on the sale of available-for-sale securities of $25.3 million. Total benefits and expenses have increased primarily for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000 due the additional group life and health business related to the purchase of Allmerica. SEGMENT RESULTS Employee Benefits The following is a summary of certain financial data of the Employee Benefits segment: Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------ Operating Summary (Thousands) 2001 2000 ----------------------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- Premium income $ 4,569 $ 3,066 Fee income 1,725 1,985 Net investment income 299 546 Realized investment gains (losses) 0 0 ---------------- -- ---------------- Total revenues 6,593 5,597 Total benefits and expenses 6,494 4,568 Income tax expenses 32 422 ---------------- ---------------- Net income $ 67 $ 607 ================ ================ Deposits to separate accounts $ 202 $ - Self-funded premium equivalents 4,749 4,340
Net income for Employee Benefits decreased $540 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The decrease was primarily due to poor morbidity in the segment's group health business and increased expenses related to the group life and health business. Premium income increased $1.5 million for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The increase was due to the acquisition of Allmerica's group life and health business. Fee income decreased $260 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The decrease is due to the segment's move towards a simpler fee, causing more deferral of fees. This may cause fluctuations from period to period. Net investment income decreased $247 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The decrease was primarily due to fewer invested assets in the segment's investment portfolio. Total benefits and expenses increased $1.9 million for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The increase was due to the additional benefits and expenses related to the purchase of Allmerica's group life and health business. Financial Services The following is a summary of certain financial data of the Financial Services segment: Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------------ Operating Summary (Thousands) 2001 2000 ----------------------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- Premium income $ (2) $ (3) Fee income 94 87 Net investment income 2,559 1,746 Realized investment gains 492 97 ---------------- -- ---------------- Total revenues 3,143 1,927 Total benefits and expenses 2,758 1,568 Income tax expenses 173 147 ---------------- ---------------- Net income $ 212 $ 212 ================ ================ Deposits for investment type contracts 5,000 350 Deposits to separate accounts 2,875 2,001
Premium and fee income for Financial Services increased $8 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The increase was primarily related to BOLI products and increased fee income related to the segment's variable annuity product. Net investment income increased $813 thousand for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The increase was due primarily to an increase in invested assets related to the segment's BOLI product. Total benefits and expenses increased $1.2 million for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The increase is primarily related to an increase in interest credited in the individual insurance BOLI line of business. Deposits for investment type contracts increased $4.6 million for the first three months of 2001 when compared to the first three months of 2000. The increase was due to an increase in sales of BOLI products. The nature of this type of product can lead to large fluctuations. GENERAL ACCOUNT INVESTMENTS The Company's primary investment objective is to acquire assets whose duration and cash flow reflect the characteristics of the Company's liabilities, while meeting industry, size, issuer, and geographic diversification standards. Formal liquidity and credit quality parameters have also been established. One of the Company's primary objectives is to ensure that its fixed maturity portfolio is maintained at a high average quality, so as to limit credit risk. If not externally rated, the securities are rated by the Company on a basis intended to be similar to that of the rating agencies. The distribution of the fixed maturity portfolio by credit rating is summarized as follows: March 31, December 31, Credit Rating 2001 2000 -------------------------- ------------------- ------------------- AAA 57.3% 62.8% AA 13.5% 14.3% A 10.1% 7.3% BBB 19.1% 15.6% ------------------- ------------------- TOTAL 100.0% 100.0% =================== =================== The Company follows rigorous procedures to control interest rate risk and observes strict asset and liability matching guidelines. These guidelines are designed to ensure that even in changing interest rate environments, the Company's assets will always be able to meet the cash flow and income requirements of its liabilities. Using dynamic modeling to analyze the effects of a wide range of possible market changes upon investments and policyholder benefits, the Company ensures that its investment portfolio is appropriately structured to fulfill financial obligations to its policyholders. During the three months ended March 31, 2001, net unrealized gains on fixed maturities included in stockholders' equity, which is net of policyholder-related amounts and deferred income taxes, increased stockholder's equity by $771 thousand. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's operations have liquidity requirements that are dependent upon the principal product lines. Life insurance and pension plan reserves are primarily long-term liabilities. Life insurance and pension plan reserve requirements are usually stable and predictable, and are supported primarily by long-term, fixed income investments. Generally, the Company has met its operating requirements by maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity in its investment portfolio. Liquidity for the Company is strong, as evidenced by significant amounts of short-term investments and cash, which totaled $12.9 million and $24.4 million as of March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively.
