KMG America's Chief Executive Officer, Kenneth Kuk KUK Kurukshetra University (India) KUK Kultur- und Kongreßzentrum (German) KUK Krebs Und Kiefer (German consulting engineers) KUK Kaiserlich Und Königlich , commented, "While second quarter earnings are much improved compared to the same period last year, results are below our expectations due primarily to adverse claims experience in portions of the Kanawha Kanawha (kənô`wə), principal river of W.Va., 97 mi (156 km) long, formed by the confluence of the New and Gauley rivers, S central W.Va., and flowing NW to the Ohio River at Point Pleasant; Charleston, W.Va. legacy business. Claims fluctuations from quarter to quarter are inherent to our business and we are satisfied that the Kanawha legacy block of business will continue to provide a stable contribution to earnings over time." Mr. Kuk added, "Regarding our new larger case activity, seasonally-adjusted second quarter sales growth is apparent in spite of in opposition to all efforts of; in defiance or contempt of; notwithstanding. See also: Spite our decision to limit new sales representative hiring. And productivity per sales rep appears consistent with our objectives. Our intent is to maintain 20-22 sales reps until adequate margins are demonstrated." 2006 OUTLOOK The Company previously offered guidance of $0.35 to $0.40 operating earnings Operating Earnings Profits after subtracting expenses such as marketing, cost of goods sold, administration and general operating costs from revenue.

SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS Second quarter 2006 operating income Operating Income The profit realized from a business' own operations. Notes: This would not include income from things such as investments in other firms. Also referred to as operating profit or recurring profit. (see discussion of non-GAAP financial measures below) declined slightly to $1.1 million compared to first quarter 2006 operating income of $1.2 million, due primarily to adverse claims experience in the Kanawha legacy business and increased litigation An action brought in court to enforce a particular right.

Second quarter 2006 operating income increased to $1.1 million, compared to second quarter 2005 operating income of $0.7 million, due primarily to revenue growth from the new larger case sales activity and improved investment income that more than offset the adverse claims experience.

Expenses (net of deferrals) totaled $4.7 million in the second quarter of 2006 compared to $4.3 million in the first quarter of 2006 and $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2005. Operating income attributed to the Kanawha legacy business for the second quarter of 2006 was $3.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, flat compared to $3.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2006, and up slightly compared to the second quarter 2005 operating income of $3.3 million, or $0.15 per diluted share. Favorable investment income in the current quarter was largely offset by adverse claims experience.

The more notable earnings drivers are discussed below where the second quarter 2006 results are compared to the first quarter 2006 results. Premium Revenue Net premiums for the second quarter of 2006 increased to $30.7 million, compared to $29.8 million in the first quarter of 2006. The increase is due to incremental premiums related to the new KMG America sales distribution channel that produced $7.1 million of new direct earned premiums Earned premium is the portion of an insurance written premium which is considered "earned" by the insurer, based on the part of the policy period that the insurance has been in effect, and during which the insurer has been exposed to loss. ($5.2 million net of reinsurance) in the second quarter of 2006 compared to $6.2 million of new direct earned premiums ($4.5 million net of reinsurance) in the first quarter of 2006. Investment Income Investment income in the second quarter of 2006 increased to $7.6 million, compared to $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2006, due to improved investment portfolio yield. The second quarter 2006 investment portfolio yield averaged 5.25%, based on average cash and invested assets excluding FAS 115 unrealized gains Unrealized Gain A profit that results from holding on to an asset rather than cashing it in and using the funds.

The second quarter 2006 average yield would have been 5.10% on a "normalized" basis after adjusting for items that do not occur evenly over time. Average cash and invested assets declined slightly (after removing increasing unrealized capital losses due to rising interest rates) due to the conversion of financial assets Financial assets Claims on real assets. into deferred acquisition cost assets that result from new product sales, and continuing high level of incremental expenses relative to new revenues associated with the build out of the new sales and underwriting operation. Policyholder Policyholder An individual who owns an insurance policy. Benefits Policyholder benefits on a segment basis for the second quarter of 2006 were impacted by reserve reallocations between the Kanawha legacy segments as a result of implementing final purchase GAAP GAAP See: Generally Accepted Accounting Principles GAAP See generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). reserves and replacing the preliminary reserving methodology in use since the Kanawha acquisition at the end of 2004.

Used to describe accounting, financial, and other statements or conclusions based upon assumed or anticipated facts. The phrase pro forma basis as if the final purchase GAAP reserve methodology was implemented as of December December: see month. 31, 2004. See discussion of non-GAAP financial measures below for a more detailed description. Policyholder benefits for the second quarter of 2006 increased slightly to $24.4 million compared to $23.4 million in the first quarter of 2006, due to higher claims reported in the senior segment and increased benefits related to incremental sales in the new KMG America worksite segment. The total company benefit ratio was 79.5% in the second quarter of 2006 compared to 78.3% in the first quarter of 2006. The benefit ratio in Kanawha's legacy worksite segment improved to 70.4% in the second quarter of 2006, compared to 73.3% in the first quarter of 2006, reflecting in part an improvement from the ratio in the first quarter which had been affected by the one-time one-time adj. 1. or one·time a. Occurring or undertaken only once: a one-time winner in 1995. b. return of premium noted then. The benefit ratio in the senior segment increased to 78.3% in the second quarter of 2006, compared to 71.6% in the first quarter of 2006, reflecting higher claim reserves on open claims in the second quarter compared to the first quarter of 2006 and a policy reserve pattern created by uneven policy anniversaries from quarter to quarter. The acquired business segment second quarter 2006 benefit ratio increased to 414.7%, compared to the first quarter 2006 benefit ratio of 381.4%, due largely to a single large claim reported in the second quarter of 2006. The unusually high benefit ratio reported in the acquired segment reflects the fact that much of this business is paid up relative to current and future premium, as well as the impact of sizable siz·a·ble also size·a·ble adj.

Excluding these experience refunds, the second quarter 2006 benefit ratio was 174.9% compared to 161.5% in the first quarter of 2006. Insurance Commissions Insurance commissions (before deferrals of policy acquisition costs) for the second quarter of 2006 were $5.3 million compared to $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2006, reflecting increased sales production. Insurance commissions, net of deferrals for the second quarter of 2006, declined slightly to $2.9 million compared to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2006 due to an increased mix of voluntary product sales where commissions are deferred. Acquisition costs are not deferred on group and stop loss sales. Expenses, Taxes, Licenses and Fees General insurance expenses, taxes, licenses and fees (before deferrals of non-commission policy acquisition costs) for the second quarter of 2006 were $15.0 million, flat compared to $15.0 million in the first quarter of 2006. General insurance expenses, taxes, licenses and fees net of deferrals for the second quarter of 2006 were $13.2 million, up slightly compared to $13.0 million in the first quarter of 2006. Amortization of Deferred Acquisition Costs (DAC See D/A converter and discretionary access control. DAC - Digital to Analog Converter )/Value of Business Acquired (VOBA VOBA Value of Business Acquired VOBA Virtual Office Business Administration VOBA Votoms Online Battling Arena VOBA Virtual Office Business Assistant (NetOffice) ) Amortization of DAC/VOBA for the second quarter of 2006 was $1.2 million, flat when compared to the $1.2 million reported in the first quarter of 2006. A large claim reported in the acquired business segment and a subsequent reduction in insurance in-force caused a temporary unfavorable accelerated VOBA adjustment of $0.2 million in the current quarter. Provision for Income Taxes The Company experienced an effective tax rate of 34.0% in the second quarter of 2006, essentially flat compared to the 33.9% reported in the first quarter of 2006, but higher than the 24.4% effective tax rate reported in the second quarter of 2005. The low effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2005 resulted from applying a net operating loss carry forward in a subsidiary for which a valuation allowance had been established against the deferred tax asset. NOTES ON FINANCIAL PRESENTATION Non-GAAP Financial Measures
-- Operating Income -- To supplement the financial statements
presented on a GAAP basis, the Company reported operating
income, which is a non-GAAP measure. Operating income is
defined as net income excluding realized investment
gains/losses (except for realized investment gains/losses that
are directly offset by executive deferred compensation
expense), net of income taxes. Management believes this
non-GAAP measure provides investors, potential investors,
securities analysts and others with useful additional
information to evaluate the performance of the business,
because it excludes items that management believes are not
indicative of the operating results of the business. In
addition, this non-GAAP measure is used by management to
evaluate the operating performance of the Company. The
presentation of this additional information is not meant to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income
determined in accordance with GAAP.
-- Pro forma segment results -- To supplement the financial
statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company reported pro
forma segment results, which is a non-GAAP measure. Second
quarter 2006 segment results were impacted by the reallocation
of portions of policy reserves and corresponding investment
income between the Kanawha legacy reporting segments. When KMG
America acquired Kanawha insurance company in December of
2004, an additional provision for adverse deviations related
to all legacy business was added to policy reserves, and
allocated primarily to the acquired business segment and a
smaller amount to the life products included in the legacy
portion of the worksite insurance business segment. Given the
discontinuation of long term care sales activity combined with
the uncertainty in the amount and timing in obtaining
approvals for rate increases for long term care policies from
state insurance regulators, the company has deemed it
appropriate to reallocate much more of the initial provision
for adverse deviations to the senior segment. The triggering
event for implementing this reallocation of policy reserves at
the current time is the implementation of the final reserve
methodology which replaces the preliminary reserve methodology
which has been in use since inception.
The result of the reallocation of reserves between Kanawha
legacy segments was to increase reserves by $37.5 million in
the senior segment, offset by reduced reserves of $31.2
million in the acquired segment and $6.3 million in the legacy
portion of the worksite segment. There was no impact to
overall policy reserves or to reported earnings to date. The
Company believes reserve adequacy testing of policy reserves
currently underway will indicate that overall earnings over
the next few years will not be adversely impacted by this
reallocation.
This reallocation of reserves between the Kanawha legacy
segments distorts the current quarter reported policyholder
benefits and the resulting reported benefit ratios by segment.
To provide a meaningful period-over-period comparison by
reporting segment, policy reserves and investment income
contained in the segment results over the past six quarters
have been reclassified on a pro forma basis in the attached
financial tables and are also reflected in the subsequent
discussion of segment results above.
