(1) In addition to net income presented in accordance with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), Phoenix considers total
segment income in evaluating its financial performance. A
reconciliation of these measures is provided at the end of this
release. Total segment income is an internal performance measure
used by Phoenix in the management of its operations, including its
compensation plans and planning processes. Management believes
that segment income provides additional insight into the
underlying trends in Phoenix's operations.
Total segment income represents income from continuing operations
(which is a GAAP measure) before realized investment gains and
losses and certain other items.
-- Net realized investment gains and losses are excluded from
total segment income because their size and timing are
frequently subject to our discretion.
-- Certain other items are excluded from total segment income
because we believe they are (i) not indicative of overall
operating trends; and (ii) infrequent and material and result
from a business restructuring, a change in regulatory
requirements, or other unusual circumstances.
Because certain of these items are excluded based on our
discretion and involve judgments by management,
inconsistencies in their determination may exist and total
segment income may differ from similarly titled measures of
other companies.
(2) This average equity is used for the calculation of segment return
on equity and represents the average of the monthly average of
equity, excluding Accumulated OCI, the effects of FIN 46-R and the
equity of discontinued operations.
