SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Feb. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Horace Mann
Educators Corporation (NYSE:HMN) today reported net income of $22.9
million (58 cents per share) and $10.9 million (27 cents per share)
for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2008,
respectively, compared to net income of $18.0 million (41 cents per
share) and $82.8 million ($1.86 per share) for the same periods in
2007. Included in net income were net realized losses on securities
of $8.2 million (a gain of $2.7 million after tax, or 7 cents per
share, reflecting the reduction of the deferred tax allowance
established at September 30, 2008) and $63.9 million ($41.5 million
after tax, or $1.02 per share) for the three and twelve months
ended December 31, 2008, respectively. In 2007, net income
reflected net realized investment losses of $5.5 million ($3.6
million after tax, or 8 cents per share) and $3.4 million ($2.2
million after tax, or 5 cents per share) for the three and twelve
months, respectively. All per-share amounts are stated on a diluted
basis. "Horace Mann's fourth quarter earnings were adversely
impacted by the poor performance and continued volatility of the
financial markets and by reestimates of prior period catastrophe
losses. In spite of those impacts, our underlying profit
fundamentals remained strong, with net income before realized
investment gains and losses of 51 cents and $1.29 per share for the
quarter and full year exceeding our guidance range," said Louis G.
Lower II, President and Chief Executive Officer. "For the current
accident year and excluding catastrophes, our property and casualty
combined ratio of approximately 90 percent for both the quarter and
full year was 1 percentage point better than the respective prior
year periods. In addition, excluding the impact of the valuation of
deferred policy acquisition costs and change in the guaranteed
minimum death benefit reserve, combined annuity and life segment
pretax earnings were only modestly below our strong prior year
results," continued Lower. "Meanwhile, compared to both fourth
quarter and full year 2007, average productivity of the nearly 250
agents who have completed our Agency Business School ("ABS")
training continued to be notably better than their non-ABS
counterparts in our lead auto and annuity lines, in spite of the
difficult competitive and economic environments." "Our underlying
2008 results support a preliminary estimate of full-year 2009 net
income before realized investment gains and losses of between $1.45
and $1.65 per share," said Lower. "This projection anticipates, for
property and casualty, a return to more normal catastrophe levels,
a reduced level of favorable prior years' reserve development and a
modest increase in underlying combined ratios; and, for annuity, a
return to historical market appreciation levels for 2009." Segment
Earnings The property and casualty segment recorded net income of
$14.5 million for the quarter, a decrease of $1.6 million compared
to the same period in 2007, including a $2.7 million increase in
after tax catastrophe costs. Pretax catastrophe costs in the
current quarter were $9.9 million compared to $5.9 million incurred
in the fourth quarter of 2007. The fourth quarter 2008 amount
included approximately $7 million pretax of adverse reserve
development for catastrophe activity in the third quarter of 2008
related to Hurricanes Gustav and Ike. The fourth quarter 2008
property and casualty combined ratio was 92.9 percent, including
7.2 percentage points due to catastrophe costs, compared to 91.9
percent, including 4.3 percentage points due to catastrophe costs,
in the prior year period. Favorable prior years' reserve
development totaling $6.7 million was recorded in the fourth
quarter, which represented 4.8 percentage points on the combined
ratio, compared to $5.2 million, or 3.8 percentage points on the
combined ratio, recorded in the fourth quarter of 2007. For full
year 2008, favorable prior years' reserve development of $18.1
million was $1.9 million less than the favorable development
recorded in 2007. Annuity segment net income was $2.9 million and
$17.3 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31,
2008, respectively, reflecting decreases of $1.0 million and $0.3
million compared to the same periods in 2007. In 2008, improvements
in the interest margin were offset by the adverse impact of the
financial markets on the level of contract charges earned. For the
three and twelve months ended December 31, 2008, the valuation of
annuity deferred policy acquisition costs had a $4 million net
negative impact on pretax earnings, with the favorable impact
related to the investment losses recognized in the periods more
than offset by the adverse impact of the financial markets on
variable deposit fund performance. In addition, the poor financial
markets performance had an adverse impact on the company's
guaranteed minimum death benefit reserve, which increased by
approximately $1 million in the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2008. Annuity segment net income for the fourth
quarter and full year of 2008 also benefited from a reduction of
$2.6 million in federal income tax expense as a result of the IRS
completing its examination of the 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2006 tax
years during the current quarter. "Fourth quarter annuity net fund
flows were positive, as they have been throughout 2008, while cash
value persistency of over 93 percent increased 2 percentage points
during the year," noted Lower. Life segment net income of $4.2
million and $16.4 million for the fourth quarter and full year
decreased $0.4 million and $0.9 million compared to the respective
periods in 2007, as growth in earned premium and investment income
was more than offset by higher mortality costs. Life persistency
remained in excess of 94 percent. Segment Revenues The company's
total premiums written and contract deposits were comparable to the
fourth quarter of 2007 and declined a modest 1 percent compared to
full year 2007, primarily reflecting the expected decreases in
single premium annuity deposit receipts in 2008. Property and
casualty premiums written increased 4 percent and 2 percent
compared to the prior year three and twelve month periods,
respectively, reflecting lower catastrophe reinsurance premiums and
an increase in average property and auto premiums per policy.
Annuity new contract deposits decreased 6 percent and 8 percent
compared to the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2007,
respectively. Scheduled, flexible-premium annuity deposit receipts
decreased moderately compared to the prior year, while rollover
deposits declined 6 percent and 14 percent compared to the fourth
quarter and full year 2007, respectively. Life segment insurance
premiums and contract deposits were comparable to the prior year.
Sales and Distribution For the three and twelve months ended
December 31, 2008, total new auto sales units were 9 percent and 7
percent lower in the current periods than in the prior year,
respectively. "In spite of the adverse prior year comparisons,
fourth quarter true new auto sales volume improved sequentially,
reflecting continued productivity gains in the current period,"
said Lower. Horace Mann agent flexible premium annuity sales
declined 7 percent in the quarter but increased 1 percent year to
date versus prior year. Reduced independent agent sales and an
anticipated decline in single premium rollover deposits adversely
impacted total annuity sales. "IRS transition regulations for the
403(b) annuity marketplace continued to reduce new rollover
deposits industry-wide," said Lower. The number of Horace Mann
agents declined 15 percent to 670 agents at December 31, 2008
compared to 12 months earlier. "As expected, our decline in agent
count primarily reflects the loss of lower-producing agents and a
reduction in new agent hires as we continue to transition our
hiring standards to target only those individuals we believe will
be successful in the new Agency Business Model," Lower said.
Including 394 licensed producers who work for the agents, Horace
Mann's total points of distribution increased to 1,064, a growth of
2 percent over prior year. "In spite of the decline in agent count,
a difficult competitive and economic environment, and our
continuing actions to reduce risk exposure in hurricane-prone
areas, we recorded positive property and casualty written premium
growth and only a slight decline in property and casualty policies
in force in 2008. Growth in Agency Business School graduate
productivity, policyholder retention, and educator policies in
force -- the primary focal points of our strategic initiatives --
have contributed significantly to these results." Investment Gains
and Losses In 2008, pretax net realized investment losses were $8.2
million for the fourth quarter, including $5.8 million of
impairment write-downs and $4.6 million of realized impairment
losses on securities that were disposed of during the quarter,
primarily high-yield investments, with these amounts partially
offset by $2.2 million of realized gains on security sales. The
$5.8 million of impairment write-downs were related primarily to
high-yield and preferred stock investments that the company no
longer intends to hold until the value fully recovers, with the
remainder related to securities for which impairment write-downs
were previously recorded. Based on an assessment that gross
realized and unrealized investment gains are now sufficient, in
conjunction with other tax planning strategies, to offset gross
unrealized investment losses, the $11.5 million deferred tax
allowance that was established at September 30, 2008 was reduced to
zero at year-end. Approximately $8.2 million of the allowance
release was reflected as an increase to the company's tax benefit
on realized investment losses. "While we realized additional
investment losses in the quarter, they were very manageable in
terms of our ability to maintain acceptable insurance subsidiary
capital and operating ratios, particularly in light of the
flexibility afforded us by our existing bank credit facility," said
Lower. Consistent with the company's previously disclosed intent,
in December 2008 it repaid $37 million of the $75 million borrowed
under its bank credit facility in October 2008. The remaining $38
million balance currently continues to be held at the holding
company level. Net unrealized investment losses on fixed maturity
and equity securities continued to be under pressure in the fourth
quarter, and Horace Mann's December 31, 2008 balance of $327.2
million increased compared to the $271.1 million level recorded at
the end of the third quarter. "With credit spreads for some asset
classes widening further during the fourth quarter, on top of
unprecedented September 30 levels, it remains our considered
judgment that our unrealized balance predominantly reflects a
remarkably disruptive credit market in a crisis mode where
liquidity has been severely impaired, with spreads and prices
disconnected from rational valuation across all asset classes,"
said Lower. "Given our insignificant exposure to sub-prime, Alt-A
and other lower-quality structured securities, coupled with the
credit enhancement of the existing TARP program and the ongoing
commitments of the United States and European governments to
support most of our financial institution holdings, and the overall
quality and performance of our CMBS holdings, we remain comfortable
with the underlying credit quality of our investment portfolio."
