NATIONWIDE VARIABLE ACCOUNT-11

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2006 and 2005

 

(1) Background and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

  (a) Organization and Nature of Operations

Nationwide Variable Account-11 (the Account) was established pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors of Nationwide Life Insurance Company (the Company) on December 15, 1999 and commenced operations on August 2, 2002. The Account is registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The Company offers Individual Deferred Variable Annuity Contracts through the Account. The contracts are distributed by the Company and marketed exclusively through Federated Investors.

 

  (b) The Contracts

Contract owners in either the accumulation or payout phase may invest in any of the following:

Portfolios of the Federated Insurance Series;

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated American Leaders Fund II – Primary Shares (FedAmLead)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Capital Appreciation Fund II – Primary Shares (FedCapAp)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Capital Income Fund II (FedCapInc)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Equity Income Fund II (FedEqInc)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Fund for US Government Securities II (FedGvtSec)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated High Income Bond Fund II – Primary Shares (FedHiInc)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated International Equity Fund II (FedIntEq)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated International Small Company Fund II (FedIntSmCo)*

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Kaufmann Fund II – Primary Shares (FedKaufmann)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Mid Cap Growth Strategies Fund II (FedMidCpGr2)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Prime Money Fund II (FedPriMy)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Quality Bond Fund II – Primary Shares (FedQualBd)

    Federated Insurance Series – Federated Total Return Bond Fund II (FedTotRe)*

*At December 31, 2006, contract owners were not invested in this fund.

The contract owners’ equity is affected by the investment results of each fund, equity transactions by contract owners and certain contract expenses (see note 2). The accompanying financial statements include only contract owners’ purchase payments pertaining to the variable portions of their contracts and exclude any purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits, the latter being included in the accounts of the Company.

A contract owner may choose from among a number of different underlying mutual fund options. The underlying mutual fund options are not available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or retirement plans.

Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ substantially.

NATIONWIDE VARIABLE ACCOUNT-11 (NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued)

 

  (c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income

Investments in underlying mutual funds are valued based on the closing net asset value per share at December 31, 2006 of such funds, which value their investment securities at fair value. The cost of investments sold is determined on a First in—First out basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed) and dividends (which include capital gain distributions) are accrued as of the ex-dividend date and are reinvested in the underlying mutual funds.

 

  (d) Federal Income Taxes

Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, operations of the Company which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code.

The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Account. Taxes are the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or withdrawal.

 

  (e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, 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.

 

  (f) New Accounting Pronouncement

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 157. SFAS 157 also provides guidance regarding the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted. SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Accounts’ financial position or results of their operations upon adoption.

 

(2) Expenses

For Premium Deferred Variable Annuity contracts, the Company does not deduct a sales charge from purchase payments received from the contract owners. However, if any part of the contract value of such contracts is surrendered, the Company will, with certain exceptions, deduct from a contract owners’ contract value a contingent deferred sales charge not to exceed 7% of the purchase payments surrendered. This charge declines 1% per year. After the purchase payment has been held in the contract for 7 years the charge is 0%. No sales charges are deducted on redemptions used to purchase units in the fixed investment options of the Company.

For the Deferred Variable Annuity contracts, a sales charge of up to 5.5% is deducted from each purchase payment. The sales charge declines based upon the amount of the cumulative qualifying purchase payment, which may include certain deposits made to other qualifying investments in addition to the deposits made to the contract. An additional sales charge of 0.5% is applied against any purchase payments in excess of $1 million that are withdrawn within one year of deposit to the contract. No sales charges are deducted on redemptions used to purchase units in the fixed investment options of the Company.

The Company may deduct an annual contract maintenance charge of $40, depending on the amount of assets in the contract, which is satisfied by surrendering units.

The Company deducts a mortality and expense risk charge assessed through the daily unit value calculation. The Option table below illustrates the annual rate for all contract level charges by product, as well as the maximum variable account charge per product. The table also summarizes the contract level options available to contract holders. The options and related charges are described in more detail in the applicable product prospectus.

(3) Related Party Transactions

The Company performs various services on behalf of the Mutual Fund Companies in which the Account invests and may receive fees for the services performed. These services include, among other things, shareholder communications, preparation, postage, fund transfer agency and various other record keeping and customer service functions. These fees are paid to an affiliate of the Company.

Contract owners may, with certain restrictions, transfer their assets between the Account and a fixed dollar contract (fixed account) maintained in the accounts of the Company. The fixed account assets are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the Account portion of contract owner loans is transferred to the accounts of the Company for administration and collection. Loan repayments are transferred to the Account at the direction of the contract owner. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, total transfers to the Account from the fixed account were $90,961 and $86,144, respectively, and total transfers from the Account to the fixed account were $26,807 and $0, respectively. Transfers from the Account to the fixed account are included in redemptions, and transfers to the Account from the fixed account are included in purchase payments received from contract owners, as applicable, on the accompanying Statements of Changes in Contract Owners’ Equity.

For guaranteed minimum death benefits, the Company contributed $0 and $3,436 to the Account in the form of additional premium to contract owner accounts for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. These amounts are included in purchase payments received from contract owners and are credited at time of annuitant death, when applicable.

(4) Financial Highlights

The Company offers several variable annuity products through the Account that have unique combinations of features and fees that are assessed to the contract owner. Differences in fee structures result in a variety of contract expense rates, unit fair values and total returns. The following tabular presentation is a summary of units, unit fair values and contract owners’ equity outstanding for variable annuity contracts as of the end of the periods indicated, and contract expense rate, investment income ratio and total return for each period in the four-year period ended December 31, 2006 and for the period August 2, 2002 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2002. Beginning in 2003 the information is presented as a range of minimum to maximum values based upon product grouping. The range is determined by identifying the lowest and the highest contract expense rate. The unit fair values and total returns related to these identified contract expense rates are also disclosed as a range below. Accordingly, some individual contract amounts may not be within the ranges presented. For periods prior to 2003 the information is presented as a range of minimum and maximum values, however, such information is exclusive and independent for each column, and there is no intentional relationship among and between the ranges of values presented for contract expense rate, unit fair value and total return.

*   

This represents the range of annual contract expense rates of the variable account for the period indicated and includes only those expenses that are charged through a reduction in the unit values. Excluded are expenses of the underlying mutual funds and charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units.

**   

This represents the dividends for the period indicated, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by average net assets. The ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that result in direct reductions to the contractholder accounts either through reductions in unit values or redemption of units. The recognition of investment income by the sub-account is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest.

***   

This represents the range of minimum and maximum total returns for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying mutual fund, which reflects the reduction of unit value for expenses assessed. It does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units, the inclusion of which would result in a reduction of the total return presented.

(a) & (b)   

Denote the minimum and maximum of the total return ranges, respectively, for underlying mutual fund options that were added during the reporting period. These returns were not annualized. Minimum and maximum ranges are not shown for underlying mutual fund options for which a single contract expense rate (product option) is representative of all units issued and outstanding at period end. Such options that were added during the reporting period are designated by these symbols.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

 

The Board of Directors of Nationwide Life Insurance Company and

    Contract Owners of Nationwide Variable Account-11:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities and contract owners’ equity of Nationwide Variable Account-11 (comprised of the sub-accounts listed in note 1(b) (collectively, “the Accounts”)) as of December 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations and changes in contract owners’ equity, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Accounts’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2006, by correspondence with the transfer agents of the underlying mutual funds. 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.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Accounts as of December 31, 2006, and the results of their operations, changes in contract owners’ equity, and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
