Exhibit 99.1

 

Glossary of Selected Terms

 

The following measures are used by the Company's management to evaluate performance against historical results and establish targets on a consolidated basis. A number of these measures are components of net income or the balance sheet but, in some cases, may be considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable SEC rules because they are not displayed as separate line items in the Consolidated Statement of Operations or Consolidated Balance Sheets, and in some cases, there is inclusion or exclusion of certain items not ordinarily included or excluded in a GAAP financial measure. In the opinion of the Company's management, a discussion of these measures is meaningful to provide investors with an understanding of the significant factors that comprise the Company's periodic results of operations and financial condition.

 

Agent - A licensed representative of an insurer in marketing insurance products.

 

·Exclusive Agency - A local Horace Mann agency created and owned by an independent contractor who has signed an Exclusive Agent agreement with the Company (an “Exclusive Agent”). That agreement states that only the Company's products and limited additional third-party vendor products authorized by the Company will be marketed by the agency. An independent contractor may sign multiple Exclusive Agent agreements with the Company and manage more than one Exclusive Agency.
·Employee Agents - Agents who have employee status with the Company and by contract market only the Company's products and limited additional third-party vendor products authorized by the Company.
·Independent Agents - Non-exclusive independent contractors who are under contract with the Company to market the Company's annuity products but who are not restricted to writing only the Company's products and products authorized by the Company.

 

Book value per share excluding the fair value adjustment for investments - The result of dividing total shareholders' equity excluding after tax net unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturities and equity securities, including the related effect on certain deferred policy acquisition costs and value of acquired insurance in force, by ending shares outstanding. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes it is useful to consider the trend in book value per share excluding unrealized net investment gains and losses in conjunction with book value per share to identify and analyze the change in net worth. Management also believes the non-GAAP measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and are generally driven by economic developments, primarily financial market conditions, the magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by the Company’s underlying insurance operations.

 

-1-
 

 

Catastrophe costs – The sum of catastrophe losses and property and casualty catastrophe reinsurance reinstatement premiums.

 

Catastrophe losses - In categorizing property and casualty claims as being from a catastrophe, the Company utilizes the designations of the Property Claims Service, a subsidiary of Insurance Services Office, Inc., and additionally beginning in 2007, includes losses from all such events that meet the definition of covered loss in the Company’s primary catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contract, and reports loss and loss adjustment expense amounts net of reinsurance recoverables. A catastrophe is a severe loss resulting from natural and man-made events within a particular territory, including risks such as hurricane, fire, earthquake, windstorm, explosion, terrorism and other similar events, that causes $25 million or more in insured property and casualty losses for the industry and affects a significant number of property and casualty insurers and policyholders. Each catastrophe has unique characteristics. Catastrophes are not predictable as to timing or amount of loss in advance. Their effects are not included in earnings or claim and claim adjustment expense reserves prior to occurrence. In the opinion of the Company's management, a discussion of the impact of catastrophes is meaningful for investors to understand the variability in periodic earnings.

 

Insurance premiums written and contract deposits - Premiums written represent (1) the amount charged for policies issued during a fiscal period for property and casualty business, such amounts may be earned and included in financial results over future fiscal periods, and (2) the amount charged for policies in force during a fiscal period for traditional life and group life business. Amounts are reported net of reinsurance, unless otherwise specified. Contract deposits include amounts received from customers on deposit-type contracts, such as annuities and interest-sensitive life policy accounts, including deposit amounts and any related contract or policy fees. Management utilizes this non-GAAP measure, which is based on statutory accounting principles, in analyzing and evaluating the business growth of its operating segments. Insurance premiums and contract charges earned is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

 

Net Reserves - Property and casualty unpaid claim and claim expense reserves net of anticipated reinsurance recoverables.

 

Operating income or Net income before realized investment gains and losses - Net income adjusted to exclude after tax realized investment gains and losses. Net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes the measure provides investors with a valuable measure of the Company’s ongoing performance because it reveals trends in the business that may be obscured by the net effect of realized investment gains and losses. Realized investment gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments that are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Operating income is used by management along with other components of net income to assess their performance and adjusted measures of operating income and operating income per diluted share are used in incentive compensation programs. Management believes that a projection of net income including after tax realized investment gains and losses is not appropriate on a forward-looking basis because it is not possible to provide a valid forecast of realized investment gains and losses, which can vary substantially from one period to another and may have a significant impact on net income.

 

-2-
 

 

 

Prior Years' Reserve Development - A measure which the Company reports for its property and casualty segment which identifies the increase or decrease in net incurred claim and claim adjustment expense reserves at successive valuation dates for claims which occurred in previous calendar years. In the opinion of the Company's management, a discussion of prior years' loss reserve development is useful to investors as it allows them to assess the impact on current period earnings of incurred claims experience from the current calendar year and previous calendar years.

 

Property and casualty operating statistics - Operating measures utilized by the Company and the insurance industry regarding the relative profitability of property and casualty underwriting results.

 

·Loss Ratio or Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Ratio - The ratio of (1) the sum of net incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses to (2) net earned premiums.
·Expense Ratio - The ratio of (1) the sum of operating expenses and the amortization of policy acquisition costs to (2) net earned premiums.
·Combined Ratio - The sum of the Loss Ratio and the Expense Ratio. A Combined Ratio less than 100% generally indicates profitable underwriting prior to the consideration of investment income.
·Combined Ratio Excluding Catastrophes and Prior Years' Reserve Development or Underlying Combined Ratio - The sum of the Loss Ratio and the Expense Ratio adjusted to remove the effect of catastrophe costs and prior years' reserve development. The Combined Ratio is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Management believes this ratio provides a valuable measure of the Company’s underlying underwriting performance that may be obscured by the effects of catastrophe costs and prior years’ reserve development, the amounts of which may be significant and may vary significantly between periods.

 

Return on equity - The ratio of (1) trailing 12-month net income to (2) the average of ending shareholders' equity for the current quarter end and the preceding four quarter ends.

 

Sales or Annualized New Sales - Sales represent the amount of new business sold during the period and exclude renewal of policies sold in previous periods. Sales are measured by the Company as premiums and deposits to be collected over the 12 months following the sale of a new policy for annuity, life, automobile and homeowners business, as well as increases in contributions to annuity and certain life business, and this time period may extend into the following calendar year. In addition, the Company discloses new policy count (units) information for automobile and homeowners business. Sales data pertains to Horace Mann products and excludes authorized products sold by Employee Agents, Exclusive Agents, and their licensed staff which are underwritten by third-party vendors. Sales should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP, including "sales" as it relates to non-insurance companies, and the Company's definition of sales might differ from that used by other companies. The Company utilizes sales information as a performance measure that indicates the productivity of its agency force. Sales are also a leading indicator of future revenue trends.

“Horace Mann’s second quarter operating income was $0.43 per diluted share, led by strong annuity results, as well as solid earnings in our life and property and casualty segments,” said Horace Mann’s President and CEO Marita Zuraitis. “In our annuity segment, assets under management increased 11% over the 12 months, and the interest spread was better than expected. For the life segment, net income decreased primarily due to a more normal level of mortality losses. The property and casualty combined ratio of 102.7% reflected the impact of 16.3 points of catastrophe losses driven by May and June hail

storms. Annuity sales were strong, up 34%, led by a successful full quarter of fixed indexed annuity sales. Life sales increased significantly, reflecting growth in both single premium and recurring premium products, and property and casualty sales increased 2%.”

 

Property and Casualty Segment

 

The property and casualty segment recorded net income of $4.9 million for the current quarter compared to $4.1 million for the same period in 2013. The total property and casualty combined ratio of 102.7% was 0.6 percentage point lower than the second quarter of 2013. The underlying property and casualty combined ratio of 88.5% improved 0.5 percentage point compared to the prior year quarter. The improvement primarily reflected a decrease in the expense ratio, accompanied by improvement in the underlying auto loss ratio offset by an increase in the property underlying loss ratio.

 

Pretax catastrophe losses in the current quarter of $23.5 million, or 16.3 points, increased $1.0 million, or 0.2 points, compared to a year ago. Favorable prior years' reserve development of $3.0 million, or 2.1 points, was recorded in the second quarter, compared to $2.6 million, or 1.8 points, of favorable development recorded in the prior year.

 

For the six months, property and casualty net income of $18.9 million increased $4.6 million compared to the same period in 2013. The year-to-date combined ratio and underlying combined ratio of 98.2% and 90.3%, respectively, improved 2.1 percentage points and 2.0 percentage points compared to the first half of 2013, primarily reflecting improvement in the underlying auto loss ratio. The current expense ratio was consistent with last year’s six month result.

 

Total property and casualty written premiums of $148.2 million and $285.4 million each increased 3% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The growth was driven by increases in average premium per policy for both auto and property accompanied by reductions in catastrophe reinsurance costs.

 

Horace Mann’s auto sales increased 4% and 1% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Declines in property new business of 9% for the quarter and 11% for the six months were largely due to continued risk mitigation initiatives. On a combined basis, property and casualty sales increased 2% compared to the second quarter of 2013 and decreased 1% compared to the first half of 2013. Policy retention continues to be strong with the auto and property policy retention rates for the current period at 85% and 89%, respectively.

 

Annuity Segment

 

Annuity segment net income of $11.5 million and $23.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $2.3 million and $3.5 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2013. For the first half of 2014, the annualized net interest spread of 205 basis points on fixed annuity assets reflected continued solid investment portfolio performance and elevated security prepayment activity from the first quarter of 2014. The favorable net interest spread, accompanied by the increase in fixed annuity assets under management, resulted in the net interest margin increasing 11% compared to the first half of 2013. The deferred policy acquisition costs unlocking in the current quarter had a $0.4 million pretax positive impact on annuity segment net income compared to a $1.0 million pretax negative impact in the prior year second quarter; for the six months, the positive impacts were minimal in both years. Total annuity assets under management of $5.5 billion increased 11% compared to June 30, 2013, and total cash value persistency remained strong at approximately 95%.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, annuity deposits of $118.0 million and $218.3 million increased 20% and 16%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in the amount of single premium and rollover deposits received in the current periods. For both periods, recurring deposit receipts also exceeded the prior year amounts.

 

Annuity sales by the company’s agency force increased 41% and 32% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, while annuity sales from the independent agent distribution channel decreased 10% and 2% compared to the same periods. As a result, Horace Mann’s total annuity sales for the current quarter and six months increased 34% and 27%, respectively, led by sales of the company’s new fixed indexed annuity product.

 

Life Segment

 

Life segment net income of $5.0 million for the second quarter and $8.9 million for the first half of the year decreased $0.6 million and $1.0 million compared to the respective periods in 2013. In the current year, mortality losses were a more normal level, partially offset by an increase in investment income.

 

In 2014, life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits of $26.2 million for the current quarter and $49.0 million for the six months increased 4% and 2% compared to the respective periods a year earlier. Life persistency of 96% was comparable to 12 months earlier. For the first six months, Horace Mann life sales of $5.0 million increased 43% compared to the prior year due to growth in the second quarter.

 

Investment Results

 

Total net investment income increased 5% and 6% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, reflecting higher asset balances in the annuity segment, as well as continued strong performance in the fixed maturity and alternative investment portfolios. Pretax net realized investment gains were $3.5 million and $5.2 million in the current quarter and six months, respectively.

 

Horace Mann’s net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities of $501.2 million at June 30, 2014 increased 33% compared to the $376.2 million net unrealized gain at March 31, 2014, primarily due to the decline in interest rates during the current quarter. Net unrealized gains were $232.5 million at December 31, 2013 and $344.5 million at June 30, 2013.

 

Webcast Conference Call

 

Horace Mann’s senior management will discuss the company’s second quarter financial results with investors and analysts on July 24, 2014 at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The conference call will be webcast live on the Internet at investors.horacemann.com and archived later in the day for replay.
