THE MIDLAND COMPANY

FORM 10-K

FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

    Certain statements made in this report are forward-looking and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include certain discussions relating to future revenue, underwriting income, premium volume, investment income and other investment results, business strategies, profitability, liquidity, capital adequacy, anticipated capital expenditures and business relationships, as well as any other statements concerning the year 2004 and beyond. In some cases you can identify forward-looking statements by such terms as “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “potential” and similar expressions or the negative versions of such expressions. The forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause results to differ materially from those anticipated in those statements. Factors that might cause results to differ from those anticipated include, without limitation, adverse weather conditions, changes in underwriting results affected by adverse economic conditions, fluctuations in the investment markets, changes in the retail marketplace, changes in the laws or regulations affecting the operations of Midland or its subsidiaries, changes in the business tactics or strategies of Midland, its subsidiaries or its current or anticipated business partners, the financial condition of Midland’s business partners, acquisitions or divestitures, changes in market forces, litigation and the other risk factors that have been identified in Midland’s filings with the SEC, any one of which might materially affect the operations of Midland or its subsidiaries. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which they are made.

PART I

     
ITEM 1.
  Business.
 
   
  Midland hereby incorporates by reference the inside cover and pages 6 through 13, 16 through 27 and 41 and 42 (Note 19) of its 2003 Annual Report to Shareholders. Midland was incorporated in Ohio in 1968 with its original predecessor company dating back to 1938. The approximate number of persons employed by Midland was 1,080 at December 31, 2003.
 
   
  Property and Casualty Loss Reserves
 
   
  Midland’s consolidated financial statements include the estimated liability (reserves) for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses (LAE) of its property and casualty insurance subsidiaries. The liability is presented net of amounts recoverable from salvage and subrogation and includes amounts recoverable from reinsurance for which receivables are recognized.
 
   
  Midland establishes reserves for losses that have been reported and certain legal expenses on the “case basis” method. Claims incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) and other adjustment expenses are estimated using statistical procedures. Salvage and subrogation recoveries are accrued using the “case basis” method for large claims and statistical procedures for smaller claims.
 
   
  Midland’s objective is to set reserves that are adequate; that is, the amounts originally recorded as reserves should at least equal the amounts ultimately expected to be required to settle losses. The property and casualty divisions’ reserves represent the Company’s best estimates of the total ultimate cost of claims that have been incurred but have not yet been paid. The estimates are based on past claims experience and reflect current claims trends as well as social, legal and economic conditions, including inflation. The reserves are not discounted.

Table of Contents

     
  Management reviews the loss and loss adjustment expense reserve development on a regular basis to determine whether the reserving assumptions and methods are appropriate. Reserves initially determined are compared to the amounts ultimately paid. Management regularly makes statistical estimates of the projected amounts necessary to settle outstanding claims, compares these estimates to the recorded reserves and adjusts the reserves as necessary. The adjustments are reflected in current operations.
 
   
  The principle reason for differences between the loss and LAE liability reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and that reported in the annual statements filed with state insurance departments in accordance with statutory accounting practices (“SAP”) relates to the reporting of reinsurance recoverables as receivables for GAAP purposes and as a reduction in reserves for SAP purposes.
 
   
  Changes in Loss and LAE Reserves:
 
   
  Midland’s table outlining changes in loss and LAE expenses was set forth in footnote 11 on page 38 of the 2003 Annual Report and is hereby incorporated by reference herein. This table is further discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis on page 19 of the 2003 Annual Report and is incorporated by reference herein.
 
   
  Analysis of Loss and LAE Reserve Development
 
   
  The following table presents the development of Midland’s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries estimated liability for the ten years prior to 2003. The top line of the table illustrates the estimated liability for unpaid losses and LAE recorded at the balance sheet date at the end of each of the indicated years. This liability represents the estimated amount of losses and LAE for claims arising in all prior years that were unpaid at the balance sheet date, including losses that had been incurred but not yet reported.
 
   
  The upper portion of the table shows the re-estimated amount of the previously recorded liability based on experience as of the end of each succeeding year. The estimate was increased or decreased as more information became known about the frequency and severity of claims for individual years. Conditions and trends that have affected development of the liability in the past may not necessarily occur in the future. Accordingly, it may not be appropriate to extrapolate future redundancies or deficiencies based on this table.
 
   
  The table shows the cumulative redundancy developed with respect to the previously recorded liability for all years as of the end of 2003. For example, the 1997 reserve of $81,901,000 has been re-estimated as of year-end 2003 to be $76,592,000, indicating a redundancy of $5,309,000.
 
   
  The lower section of the table shows the cumulative amount paid with respect to the previously recorded liability as of the end of each succeeding year. For example, as of December 31, 2003, the Company had paid $73,237,000 of the currently estimated $76,592,000 of losses and LAE that had been incurred as of the end of 1997; thus an estimated $3,355,000 of losses incurred as of the end of 1997 remain unpaid as of the current financial statement date.
 
   
  In using this information, it should be noted that this table does not present accident or policy year development data which readers may be more accustomed to analyzing. Each amount in each column includes amounts applicable to the year over the column and all prior years. For example, the amounts included in the 1997 column include amounts related to 1997 and all prior years.
 
   
  The unfavorable reserve development of $12.0 million relative to the reserves outstanding at December 31, 2002 is primarily due to higher than expected loss development emanating from the commercial liability line products, and to a lesser extent, the motorcycle product. Midland exited the commercial liability lines in September 2001.

  Seasonality
 
   
  Incurred losses, and thus the results of operations, for Midland are dependent in some respect on seasonal weather patterns. For example, for the past few years, growth in seasonal type insurance products such as the motorcycle and watercraft products has outpaced the growth in our other property and casualty products. This has increased the seasonality of our product mix as non-catastrophe losses from these products are expected to be higher in the second and third quarters of the year when usage of these products tends to be highest. Manufactured housing catastrophe losses also tend to be greater in the second and third quarters when severe weather conditions are likely to occur. Gross written premium from the motorcycle, watercraft and manufactured housing products amounted to $411.3 million in 2003 which represents 62% of the total property and casualty gross written premium for the year.
 
   
  Reinsurance
 
   
  Midland attempts to mitigate its risk to such unpredictable weather patterns by diversifying the geographic areas covered and by reinsuring certain levels of risk with other insurance companies. By reinsuring certain levels and types of insurable risk with other insurance companies, Midland limits its exposure to losses to that portion of the insurable risk it retains. However, failure of the reinsurer to honor their obligation could result in losses to Midland, as the reinsurance contracts do not relieve Midland of its obligations to policyholders. Midland continually evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers to minimize its exposure to losses from reinsurer insolvencies and does not believe it holds any significant concentration of credit risk arising from any single reinsurer or any similar geographic region, activity or economic characteristic associated with its reinsurers. Midland fully expects its reinsurers to honor their obligations. As of December 31, 2003 Midland is owed $5.1 million from reinsurers for claims that have been paid and for which a contractual obligation to collect from a reinsurer exists. Midland has not experienced any significant uncollectible reinsurance amounts or coverage disputes with its reinsurers historically and the composition of its reinsurers has not changed significantly in recent years.
 
   
  Significant Customer
 
   
  As indicated in Industry Segments, Note 19 to Midland’s 2003 consolidated financial statements, Midland’s wholly owned subsidiary, American Modern Insurance Group, receives significant revenues from one customer, GreenTree Insurance Agency, Inc. (formerly Conseco Agency, Inc.). In 2003, the revenues related to GreenTree (earned premium net of amounts ceded to reinsurers) were less than 10% of Midland’s consolidated revenues. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 the revenues related to GreenTree were $78.6 million and $80.7 million, respectively, and were more than 10% of Midland’s consolidated revenues. The receivable balance from GreenTree has decreased from continued collections to $4.8 million at December 31, 2003, down from $11.1 million and $20.7 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The GreenTree receivable is current at December 31, 2003.
