New York, July 21, 2015 — The Travelers Companies, Inc. today reported net income of $812 million, or $2.53 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, compared to net income of $683 million, or $1.95 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. Operating income in the current quarter was $806 million, or $2.52 per diluted share, compared to $673 million, or $1.93 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. The increase in net and operating income primarily resulted from lower catastrophe losses and a $32 million benefit from the resolution of prior year tax matters, partially offset by lower net investment income. Per diluted share amounts also benefited from the impact of share repurchases.

Consolidated Highlights

See Glossary of Financial Measures for definitions and the statistical supplement for additional financial data.

“We are pleased to report another strong quarter, with operating income of $806 million and operating return on equity of 14.2%,” commented Jay Fishman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our results were driven by strong underwriting performance across all of our business segments, as reflected in our consolidated combined ratio of 90.8%, as well as net investment income which was consistent with our expectations. We continue to deploy our capital first by seeking opportunities that offer attractive returns, and then by returning excess capital to shareholders. In the quarter, we returned almost $1 billion to shareholders, including approximately $800 million in share repurchases.

“We remain very pleased with both the stability of the markets in which we compete, as well as how we have executed on our strategies. Given our strong product returns, our goal has been to retain a high percentage of business that meets our return thresholds, to improve profitability where needed, and to actively seek and quote on new business that is consistent with our profitability targets. For the first half of the year, we have achieved our goals as evidenced by historically high retentions, broadly stable renewal pricing, and solid new business. We believe these results demonstrate the value we provide to our agents, brokers, and customers.

“We continue to believe that creating shareholder value is achieved by building meaningful and sustainable competitive advantages which deliver superior returns over time and returning excess capital to shareholders. This strategy has been extremely effective for us, and with our data-driven decisions and relentless focus on execution, we remain well positioned to continue to deliver superior shareholder value.”

Consolidated Results

Second Quarter 2015 Results

(All comparisons vs. second quarter 2014, unless noted otherwise)

Net income of $812 million after-tax and operating income of $806 million after-tax increased $129 million and $133 million, respectively, primarily driven by lower catastrophe losses and a $32 million benefit from the resolution of prior year tax matters, partially offset by lower net investment income.

2

Underwriting results

·                  The combined ratio improved 4.3 points to 90.8% due to lower catastrophe losses (3.6 points), higher net favorable prior year reserve development (0.4 points), and a lower underlying combined ratio (0.3 points).

·                  The underlying combined ratio remained strong, improving 0.3 points to 90.6%.

·                  Net favorable prior year reserve development occurred in all segments. Catastrophe losses primarily resulted from wind and hail storms in several regions of the United States.

Net investment income of $632 million pre-tax ($503 million after-tax) decreased primarily due to lower private equity and fixed income returns. Private equity returns were particularly high in the prior year quarter and were impacted in the current quarter by lower valuations for energy-related investments. Fixed income returns declined due to lower reinvestment rates and modestly lower fixed income investments that were impacted by the Company’s $579 million payment in the first quarter 2015 related to the settlement of the Asbestos Direct Action Litigation.

Net written premiums of $6.169 billion were comparable to the prior year quarter, benefitting from positive renewal premium changes, strong retention in each business segment, and a significant increase in new business in Personal Insurance, partially offset by the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Year-to-Date 2015 Results

(All comparisons vs. year-to-date 2014, unless noted otherwise)

Net income of $1.645 billion after-tax and operating income of $1.633 billion after-tax decreased $90 million and $92 million, respectively, primarily driven by lower net investment income and a lower underlying underwriting gain (i.e., excluding net favorable prior year reserve development and catastrophe losses), partially offset by lower catastrophe losses and the $32 million benefit from the resolution of prior year tax matters. The underlying underwriting gain in the prior year period benefitted from a $49 million after-tax ($76 million pre-tax) reduction in the estimated liability for state assessments to be paid by the Company related to workers’ compensation premiums due to a change in state law.

Underwriting results

·                  The combined ratio improved 0.6 points to 89.9% due to lower catastrophe losses (1.7 points), partially offset by a higher underlying combined ratio (0.8 points) and lower net favorable prior year reserve development (0.3 points).

·                  The underlying combined ratio, while remaining strong, increased 0.8 points to 90.4%, due to an increase in the expense ratio (1.1 points). The expense ratio increased primarily due to the inclusion in the prior year period of the above mentioned state assessments benefit (0.6 points).

·                  Net favorable prior year reserve development occurred in all segments. Catastrophe losses included the second quarter 2015 events discussed above, as well as a winter storm in the eastern United States in the first quarter 2015.

Net investment income of $1.224 billion pre-tax ($981 million after-tax) decreased primarily due to lower private equity returns and fixed income returns. Private equity returns were particularly high in the prior year period and were impacted in the current period by lower valuations for energy-related investments. Fixed income returns declined due to lower reinvestment rates and modestly lower fixed income investments that were impacted by the Company’s $579 million payment in the first quarter 2015 related to the settlement of the Asbestos Direct Action Litigation.

Net written premiums of $12.066 billion increased slightly from the prior year period, benefitting from positive renewal premium changes and an increase in retention and new business, partially offset by the impact of changes in the timing and structure of certain of the Company’s reinsurance treaties and the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

3

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity of $24.121 billion decreased 3% from year-end 2014 primarily due to a reduction in after-tax net unrealized investment gains. After-tax net unrealized investment gains were $1.376 billion, compared to $1.966 billion at year-end 2014. Book value per share of $77.51 increased 1% from year-end 2014, while adjusted book value per share of $73.09 increased 3% from year-end 2014.

The Company repurchased 7.9 million shares during the second quarter and 14.2 million shares year-to-date at a total cost of $801 million and $1.473 billion, respectively, leaving $5.084 billion of remaining capacity under its existing share repurchase authorization at the end of the quarter. Also as of the end of the quarter, statutory capital and surplus was $20.851 billion and the ratio of debt-to-capital (excluding after-tax net unrealized investment gains) was 21.8%, well within the Company’s target range of 15% to 25%.

The Board of Directors today declared a quarterly dividend of $0.61 per share. This dividend is payable on September 30, 2015, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 10, 2015.

Second Quarter 2015 Results

(All comparisons vs. second quarter 2014, unless noted otherwise)

Business and International Insurance had another strong quarter with operating income of $543 million after-tax and a combined ratio of 93.2%. Operating income increased $72 million primarily due to lower catastrophes, higher net favorable prior year reserve development, and a $12 million benefit from the resolution of prior year tax matters in the current quarter, partially offset by lower net investment income and a slightly lower underlying underwriting gain.

4

Underwriting results

·                  The combined ratio improved 4.9 points to 93.2%, due to lower catastrophe losses (3.7 points) and higher net favorable prior year reserve development (1.5 points), partially offset by a higher underlying combined ratio (0.3 points).

·                  The underlying combined ratio, while remaining strong, increased by 0.3 points to 93.1%.

·                  Net favorable prior year reserve development primarily resulted from better than expected loss experience in the workers’ compensation product line for accident years 2006 and prior, better than expected loss experience in the general liability product line primarily related to primary coverages for accident years 2008 through 2013, reflecting more favorable legal and judicial environments than what the Company previously expected, better than expected loss experience in the Company’s operations at Lloyd’s and in Canada, better than expected loss experience for property coverages in the commercial multi-peril product line primarily related to non-catastrophe losses for accident years 2012 and 2014, and better than expected loss experience for the property product line related to catastrophe losses for accident year 2014. These improvements were partially offset by a $47 million after-tax ($72 million pre-tax) increase to environmental reserves.

Net written premiums decreased 1% to $3.679 billion. Domestic net written premiums increased 1% driven by positive renewal premium changes and an increase in retention rates. International net written premiums decreased 15% primarily due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Business and International Insurance performed well in the period with operating income of $1.058 billion after-tax and a combined ratio of 93.3%. Operating income decreased $107 million primarily due to lower net investment income and a lower underlying underwriting gain, partially offset by lower catastrophe losses, higher net favorable prior year reserve development and the $12 million benefit from the resolution of prior year tax matters. The underlying underwriting gain in the prior year period benefitted from a $49 million after-tax ($76 million pre-tax) reduction in the estimated liability for state assessments to be paid by the Company related to workers’ compensation premiums due to a change in state law.

Underwriting results

·                  The combined ratio improved 0.4 points to 93.3%, due to lower catastrophe losses (1.6 points) and higher net favorable prior year reserve development (0.5 points), partially offset by a higher underlying combined ratio (1.7 points).

·                  The underlying combined ratio, while remaining strong, increased 1.7 points to 92.9%, due to an increase in the expense ratio (1.7 points). The expense ratio increased primarily due to the inclusion in the prior year quarter of the above mentioned state assessments benefit (1.1 points).

·                  Net favorable prior year reserve development primarily resulted from the same factors as discussed above for the second quarter, as well as better than expected loss experience in the general liability product line primarily related to primary coverages for accident years 2005 and prior, and better than expected loss experience for the property product line related to catastrophe losses for accident years 2012 and 2013.

Net written premiums of $7.476 billion were comparable to the prior year. Domestic net written premiums increased 2% driven by positive renewal premium changes, an increase in retention rates, and an increase in new business, partially offset by the impact of changes in the timing and structure of certain of the Company’s reinsurance treaties. International net written premiums decreased 12% primarily due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

·                  changes in U.S. tax laws or in the tax laws of other jurisdictions in which the Company operates could adversely impact the Company; and

·                  the Company’s share repurchase plans depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s financial position, earnings, share price, catastrophe losses, maintaining capital levels commensurate with the Company’s desired ratings from independent rating agencies, funding of the Company’s qualified pension plan, capital requirements of the Company’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, other investment opportunities (including mergers and acquisitions and related financings), market conditions and other factors.

GLOSSARY OF FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP MEASURES TO GAAP MEASURES

The following measures are used by the Company’s management to evaluate financial performance against historical results and establish targets on a consolidated basis. In some cases, these measures are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable SEC rules because they are not displayed as separate line items in the consolidated financial statements or are not required to be disclosed in the notes to financial statements or, in some cases, include or exclude certain items not ordinarily included or excluded in the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures also follow.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, a discussion of these measures provides investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and other financial statement users with a better understanding of the significant factors that comprise the Company’s periodic results of operations and how management evaluates the Company’s financial performance.  Internally, the Company’s management uses these measures to evaluate performance against historical results, to establish financial targets on a consolidated basis and for other reasons, which are discussed below.

Some of these measures exclude net realized investment gains (losses), net of tax, and/or net unrealized investment gains (losses), net of tax, which can be significantly impacted by both discretionary and other economic factors and are not necessarily indicative of operating trends.

11

Other companies may calculate these measures differently, and, therefore, their measures may not be comparable to those used by the Company’s management.

RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING INCOME AND CERTAIN OTHER NON-GAAP MEASURES TO NET INCOME

Operating income is net income excluding the after-tax impact of net realized investment gains (losses) and discontinued operations. Management uses operating income to analyze each segment’s performance and as a tool in making business decisions. Financial statement users also consider operating income when analyzing the results and trends of insurance companies. Operating earnings per share is operating income on a per common share basis.
