 “Horace Mann’s second quarter operating income was significantly impacted by adverse weather; catastrophe losses were $32.4 million, the second highest level recorded during a second quarter, and non-catastrophe weather losses also impacted underlying auto and property results. Life and Retirement results remain strong. Looking past the challenging weather results, our profitability improvement initiatives for auto remain on track, and we continue to see stabilization in auto loss trends excluding the impacts of elevated adverse weather,” said Horace Mann’s President and Chief Executive Officer Marita Zuraitis.

"As a result of the historic levels of catastrophe losses, as well as significant non-catastrophe weather-related losses in both property and auto, we are revising our estimate of full-year 2017 operating income to between $1.45 and $1.65 per diluted share. We remain confident in our ability to improve our underlying auto loss ratio, but as a result of the unprecedented weather-related losses that impacted auto in the first six months of the year, the improvement may take longer than we originally anticipated. Therefore, we now anticipate margin improvement to emerge in 2018," stated Zuraitis.

Property and Casualty Segment

For the second quarter, the Property and Casualty segment recorded a net loss of $13.9 million which was $9.4 million higher than the loss recorded in the prior year period.  The incremental loss reflects an elevated level of catastrophe losses and non-catastrophe weather-related losses, which resulted in a Property and Casualty combined ratio of 118.5% for the quarter. The primary driver of the increase was non-catastrophe weather-related losses in property, as well as a $5.1 million increase in total catastrophe losses, which were $32.4 million on a pretax basis.

Prior years’ reserves continue to develop favorably; however, the favorable development in the current quarter of $0.6 million pretax was $1.0 million pretax lower than the amount a year ago.

On an underlying basis, the auto loss ratio of 79.8% was in line with the prior period result on a developed basis despite the elevated level of weather losses in the second quarter of 2017.  For property, the increase in the underlying loss ratio from 41.9% for the second quarter of 2016 to 56.0% for the second quarter of 2017 was largely related to the impact of higher non-catastrophe weather-related losses. Compared to the second quarter of 2016, the Property and Casualty expense ratio decreased slightly.

For the first half of 2017, the Property and Casualty segment incurred a net loss of $11.2 million compared to net income of $9.3 million in the first half of 2016 as a result of elevated catastrophe losses and non-catastrophe weather-related losses. The current period total Property and Casualty combined ratio of 112.0% increased 9.2 points compared to a year ago. Pretax catastrophe losses were $9.6 million higher than the first half of 2016; favorable prior years' reserve development was $2.0 million less than the prior year amount. On an underlying basis, the six month auto loss ratio of 78.2% increased 2.4 points compared to the prior year period. For property, the underlying six month loss ratio of 51.3% increased 12.4 points compared to the prior year period for reasons similar to the second quarter comparison above. The expense ratio for Property and Casualty of 27.3% was comparable to the prior year period.

Total Property and Casualty written premiums of $167.9 million and $320.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, respectively, each increased 5% compared to the prior year periods. The growth was driven primarily by rate actions which resulted in an increase in the average premium per policy for both auto and property.

Total Property and Casualty sales increased 6% and 8% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. Auto sales increased 7% while property sales increased 4% compared to the prior year period. Policy retention continues to be strong with auto and property policy retention rates for the current quarter at 83% and 87%, respectively.

Retirement Segment

For the second quarter of 2017, Retirement segment net income of $11.8 million decreased $1.2 million or 9% compared to the prior year period which is primarily due to a $3.2 million pretax increase in operating expenses including costs related to the Company’s continued infrastructure and strategic investments, offset by a $0.9 million pretax increase in net interest margin.

The six month 2017 annualized net interest spread on fixed annuity assets was 189 basis points, an increase of 4 basis points compared to a year ago. Total Retirement assets under management of $6.5 billion increased 7% compared to a year ago, and total cash value persistency remained strong at 90% for variable annuities and 93% for fixed annuities.

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, annuity deposits of $116.8 million and $234.1 million decreased 6% and 1%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods.

Life Segment

Life segment net income of $5.6 million and $9.5 million for the current three and six month periods, respectively, increased $1.0 million compared to each of the respective periods in 2016.

Life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits of $26.9 million for the current quarter decreased 2% compared to the prior year period. For the first six months, they increased 4%, to $53.4 million compared to the prior year period. Life sales of $3.7 million decreased 10% compared to the second quarter of 2016, primarily due to a decrease in second quarter single premium sales. Life sales for the six month period of $8.4 million increased 18% compared to the prior year period due to an increase in single premium sales. Life persistency of 95% was comparable to 12 months earlier.

Investment Results

Total net investment income increased 1% and 4% compared to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 reflecting higher asset balances in the Retirement segment offset by the impact of the current low interest rate environment. Pretax net realized investment gains were $2.0 million and $1.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, respectively. In the second quarter of 2017, $3.6 million pretax charges for other than temporary impairment were recorded primarily on fixed maturity securities.

Horace Mann’s net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities were $433.0 million at June 30, 2017, compared to net unrealized investment gains of $351.3 million at March 31, 2017 and $312.2 million at December 31, 2016. Net unrealized investment gains were $584.1 million at June 30, 2016.
