AMERICAN ENTERPRISE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2002
(In thousands)
(unaudited)
1. General
In the opinion of the management of American Enterprise Life Insurance
Company (the Company), the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly its balance sheet as
of June 30, 2002, statements of income for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 and statements of cash flows for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. Certain prior year amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.
American Enterprise Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a stock
life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of
Indiana. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of IDS Life Insurance
Company (IDS Life) which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of American
Express Financial Corporation (AEFC). AEFC is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of American Express Company. The Company serves residents of 48 states.
American Enterprise REO 1, LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company.
2. Comprehensive Income
Total comprehensive income (loss) was $44,514 and $(19,692) for the
three months and $20,736 and $(1,669) for the six months ended June 30,
2002 and 2001, respectively.

4. Commitments and contingencies
The Company had no commitments to fund mortgage loan investments in
the ordinary course of business at June 30, 2002.
The maximum amount of life insurance risk retained by the Company is
$750 on any policy insuring a single life and $1,500 on any policy
insuring a joint-life combination. Risk not retained is reinsured with
other life insurance companies, primarily on a yearly renewable term
basis. The Company retains all accidental death benefit and waiver of
premium risk.
A number of lawsuits involving insurance sales practices, alleged agent
misconduct, failure to properly supervise agents and other matters
relating to life insurance policies and annuity contracts have been
filed against life and health insurers in jurisdictions in which the
Company and its affiliates do business. The Company and its affiliates,
like other life and health insurers, are involved in such litigation.
IDS Life was a named defendant in three class action lawsuits of this
nature. The Company is a named defendant in one of the suits, Richard
W. and Elizabeth J. Thoresen v. American Express Financial Corporation,
American Centurion Life Assurance Company, American Enterprise Life
Insurance Company, American Partners Life Insurance Company, IDS Life
Insurance Company and IDS Life Insurance Company of New York which was
also commenced in Minnesota state court on October 13, 1998. These
class action lawsuits included allegations of improper insurance and
annuity sales practices including improper replacement of existing
annuity contracts and insurance policies, improper use of annuities to
fund tax deferred contributory retirement plans, alleged agent
misconduct, failure to properly supervise agents and other matters
relating to life insurance policies and annuity contracts.
In January 2000, AEFC and its subsidiaries reached an agreement in
principle to settle the three class action lawsuits, including the one
described above. It is expected the settlement will provide $215
million of benefits to more than two million participants in exchange
for a release by class members of all insurance and annuity market
conduct claims dating back to 1985.

4. Commitments and contingencies (continued)
In August 2000, an action entitled Lesa Benacquisto, Daniel
Benacquisto, Richard Thoresen, Elizabeth Thoresen, Arnold Mork,
Isabella Mork, Ronald Melchert and Susan Melchert v. American Express
Financial Corporation, American Express Financial Advisors, American
Centurion Life Assurance Company, American Enterprise Life Insurance
Company, American Partners Life Insurance Company, IDS Life Insurance
Company and IDS Life Insurance Company of New York was commenced in the
United States District Court for the District of Minnesota. The
complaint put at issue various alleged sales practices and
misrepresentations and allegations of violations of federal laws.
In May 2001, the United States District Court for the District of
Minnesota and the District Court, Fourth Judicial District for the
State of Minnesota, Hennepin County entered orders approving the
settlement as tentatively reached in January 2000. Appeals were filed
in both federal and state court but subsequently dismissed by the
parties filing the appeals. The orders approving the settlement were
final as of September 24, 2001. Implementation of the settlement
commenced October 15, 2001.
Numerous individuals opted out of the settlement described above and
therefore did not release their claims against the AEFC and its
subsidiaries. Some of these class members who opted out were
represented by counsel and presented separate claims to the Company.
Most of their claims have been settled.
The outcome of any litigation or threatened litigation cannot be
predicted with any certainty. However, in the aggregate, the Company
does not consider any lawsuits in which it is named as a defendant to
have a material impact on the Company's financial position or operating
results.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2001:
Consolidated net loss was $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002,
compared to $46 million in 2001. Loss before income taxes totaled $17 million in
the first six months of 2002, compared with $71 million in the first six months
of 2001. The change primarily reflects a net pre-tax loss of $85 million from
the write-down and sale of certain high-yield securities in the first six months
of 2001.
Premiums received totaled $651 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002,
compared to $433 million in 2001. The increase is primarily due to increased
sales of fixed annuities.
Contractholder charges decreased 5 percent to $2.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2002, compared with $3.1 million a year ago, due primarily to a
decline in fixed annuity surrenders and lapses.
Mortality, expense risk and other fees increased to $6.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 compared with $4.7 million a year ago. This was
primarily due to an increase in average separate account assets outstanding. The
Company receives a mortality and expense risk fee from the separate accounts.
Net investment income increased to $140 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 compared with $133 million a year ago. This increase was primarily
due to credit-related yield adjustments on fixed maturity investments in 2001
and higher average portfolio balances, partially offset by lower portfolio
rates.
Net realized loss on investments was $3.6 million for the six months ended June
30, 2002 compared to a net realized loss of $85 million a year ago. The 2001
loss was primarily due to the write-down and sale of certain high-yield
investments.
Total benefits and expenses were $163 million, an increase of 28 percent from a
year ago. The largest component of expenses, interest credited on universal-life
type insurance and investment contracts, increased 10 percent to $99 million.
This was primarily due to higher aggregate amounts of fixed annuities in force,
partially offset by a decrease in the rate of interest credited to annuity
contracts due to declining interest rates. The decreased interest rates also
resulted in a significant decrease in the market value of interest rate swaps,
reflected in the increase in Other insurance and operating expenses. The Company
enters into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps to protect the
margin between interest rates earned on investments and the interest rates
credited to annuity contract holders (interest margins). The swaps are economic
hedges that are not designated for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No.
133. If interest rates remain at current levels, the decrease in the value of
the interest rate swaps recognized currently will be approximately offset in the
future by increases in interest margins.
-12-
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (DACs) decreased to $21
million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $23 million a year
ago. The decline was due primarily to improved persistency of fixed deferred
annuity business.
IMPACT OF RECENT MARKET VOLATILITY ON RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Various aspects of the Company's business are impacted by equity market levels
and other market-based events. Two areas in particular involve DAC and
structured investments. Each quarter management evaluates various factors, and
makes certain assumptions based on those factors, to determine the proper
amortization schedule for the Company's DAC, including mortality rates, product
persistency rates, maintenance expense levels, interest margins, and market
performance with respect to variable products. Changes in these factors can
affect management's assumptions in various ways. Depending on the direction and
magnitude of the changes they can increase or decrease DAC expense levels and
results of operations in any particular quarter. Similarly, the value of the
Company's structured investment portfolio is impacted by various market factors.
These investments include collateralized debt obligations and structured loan
trusts (backed by high-yield bonds and bank loans, respectively), which are held
by the Company through interests in special purpose entities. The carrying value
of these investments is based on cash flow projections, which are affected by
factors such as default rates, persistency of defaults, recovery rates and
interest rates, among others. The valuation of these investments assumes high
levels of defaults through 2002, relative to historical default rates.
Persistency or increases in these default rates could result in negative
adjustments to the market values of these investments in the future, which would
adversely impact results of operations. Conversely, a decline in the default
rates would benefit future results of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The liquidity requirements of the Company are met by funds provided by annuity
considerations, capital contributions, investment income, proceeds from sales of
investments as well as maturities and periodic repayments of investment
principal.
The primary uses of funds are policy benefits, commissions and operating
expenses and investment purchases.
The Company has an available line of credit with AEFC aggregating $50 million.
The line of credit is used strictly as a short-term source of funds. No
borrowings were outstanding under the agreement at June 30, 2002. The Company
also uses reverse repurchase agreements for short term liquidity needs. There
were no outstanding reverse repurchase agreements at June 30, 2002.
-13-
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
At June 30, 2002, approximately 4 percent of the Company's investments in fixed
maturities were below investment grade bonds. These investments may be subject
to a higher degree of risk than the investment grade issues because of the
borrower's generally greater sensitivity to adverse economic conditions, such as
recession or increasing interest rates, and in certain instances, the lack of an
active secondary market. Expected returns on below investment grade bonds
reflect consideration of such factors. The Company has identified those fixed
maturities for which a decline in fair value is determined to be other than
temporary, and has written them down to fair value with a charge to earnings.
At June 30, 2002, the Company had a reserve for losses on mortgage loans of $8
million.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in the management's discussion and analysis of consolidated
financial condition and results of operations section of this Form 10-Q contain
forward-looking statements which are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause results to differ materially from such statements. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date on which they are made. The Company undertakes no
obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Company's forward-looking statements include, among other things, fluctuations
in the equity and interest rate environment and changes in the ability of
issuers of investment securities held by the Company to meet their debt
obligations, which could result in further losses in the Company's investment
portfolio.
