¹ Sales for an insurance company are a non-GAAP financial measure. We do not believe there is a comparable GAAP financial measure and as a result, have not provided a reconciliation. Sales are presented in accordance with industry practice and represent the amount of new business sold during the period. We believe sales are a measure of the productivity of our distribution networks. Sales are also a leading indicator of future revenue trends. However, revenues are driven by prior period sales as well as current period sales and therefore, a reconciliation of sales to revenues would not be meaningful or determinable.

ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

On August 6, 2003, the Company reported the following in its second quarter 2003 earnings call

The Company expects its return on equity to remain around 12% for 2003.²

The Company continues to believe that its pre-tax, credit-related write downs, net of any credit-related gains, will be $20-$25 million in 2003.

The Company is on target to slightly exceed its 2003 annuity sales goal of $1.5 billion but believes that its sales will still be lower than its 2002 results.¹

The Company expects total pre-tax restructuring charges during the third and fourth quarters to be between four and five million dollars and that these charges will conclude by the end of 2003.

The Company expects spreads on its traditional fixed annuity products to improve but remain below its 200 basis point target.

     All statements, trend analyses and other information contained in the previous statements relative to markets for products and trends in operations or financial results, as well as other statements including words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, and other similar expressions, constitute forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements include, among others, the following possibilities (a) general economic conditions and other factors, including prevailing interest rate levels and stock market performance, which may affect the Company’s ability to sell products, the market value of investments and the lapse rate and profitability of policies; (b) the ability to achieve anticipated levels of operational efficiencies and cost-saving initiatives and to meet cash requirements based upon projected liquidity sources; (c) customer response to new products, distribution channels and marketing initiatives; (d) mortality, morbidity, and other factors which may affect the profitability of insurance products; (e) the ability to develop and maintain effective risk management policies and procedures and to maintain adequate reserves for future policy benefits and claims; (f) changes in the federal income tax laws and regulations which may affect the relative tax advantages of some products; (g) increasing competition in the sale of insurance and annuities and the recruitment of sales representatives; (h) regulatory changes or actions, including those relating to regulation of insurance products and of insurance companies; (i) ratings and those subsidiaries by independent rating organizations which AmerUs Group believes are particularly important to the sale of products; (j) the performance of investment portfolios; (k) the impact of changes in standards of accounting for derivatives and business combinations, goodwill and other intangibles and purchase accounting adjustments; (l) the Company’s ability to integrate the business and operations of acquired entities; (m) expected life

² This projection is based on adjusted net operating income per share which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Due to the unpredictability of the timing and recognition of gains and losses, especially items such as credit impairments, trading gains and losses, FAS 133 adjustments as well as the unpredictable nature of certain other unusual or non-recurring items that management believes are not indicative of ongoing operational performance, guidance on GAAP net income cannot readily be estimated. Accordingly, the Company is unable to provide guidance with respect to, or a reconciliation of guidance on, projected long-term return on average equity on a GAAP basis.

and annuity product margins; (n) the impact of anticipated investment transactions; and (o) unanticipated litigation or regulatory investigations.

     There can be no assurance that other factors not currently anticipated by the Company will not materially and adversely affect results of operations. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements made by the Company or on its behalf. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statement was made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement.

ITEM 12. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

On August 5, 2003, AmerUs Group Co. issued a press release reporting its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, which the Company is furnishing under this Item 12 as Exhibit 99.2, and posted on its website the supplemental information, which the Company is furnishing under this Item 12 as Exhibit 99.3.

On August 6, 2003, the Company reported the following in its second quarter 2003 earnings call.

The spread on the Company’s traditional fixed annuity business was virtually flat with last quarter at 186 basis points. This compares to 188 basis points last quarter and 199 basis points a year ago.

Statutory net income was $40.5 million for the second quarter and $48.5 million year-to-date. Statutory adjusted capital increased to $932 million. The Company’s risk-based capital increased to 294 percent, compared to 268 percent at the end of the first quarter. All of the company’s major operating subsidiaries’ risk-based capital levels are at or above the 270 percent range.

The Company’s annualized return on average equity for the first half of 2003 was 11.9 percent on a GAAP basis and 12.1 percent calculated using adjusted net operating income (rather than net income) and excluding other accumulated other comprehensive income.³

³ Management of the Company believes that calculating the Company’s annualized return on average equity in this manner assists investors in evaluating the performance of the Company. See footnote 1 of the Company’s Press Release dated August 5, 2003, which is furnished under Item 12 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

AmerUs Group Reports Record Second Quarter Net Income

     DES MOINES, Iowa (August 5, 2003)—AmerUs Group Co. (NYSE: AMH), a leading producer of life insurance and annuity products, today reported record second quarter 2003 net income of $43.7 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, a significant increase over last year’s reported results of $4.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share. Net income for the first six months of 2003 was $79.5 million, or $2.02 per diluted share, compared with $29.2 million, or $0.71 per diluted share reported a year ago.

     Adjusted net operating income for the second quarter of 2003 was $37.1 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared with $36.1 million, or $0.89 per diluted share a year ago.¹ Year-to-date adjusted net operating income was $73.2 million, or $1.86 per diluted share compared to $72.2 million or $1.75 per diluted share. Commenting on the company’s second quarter and six month results, chairman, president and chief executive officer Roger K. Brooks said, “Our strong core earnings, combined with the improved market environment, have significantly improved net income. Fundamentals continue to be strong and we are pleased to be seeing more positive signs in the economic environment.”

Accumulation Product Results and Sales²

     Pre-tax operating income for the accumulation segment was $29.4 million during the second quarter of 2003 compared to $31.9 million a year ago. The decrease was due to lower spreads on fixed annuity products and lower contributions from owned marketing organization operations. Year-to-date, pre-tax operating income was $58.8 million compared to $58.5 million for the first six months of 2002.

     Sales of fixed annuity products for the quarter were $468 million, compared with $403 million in the second quarter of 2002. Year-to-date, fixed annuity sales were $844 million compared to $797 million during the first six months of 2002. Equity index annuities, the company’s most profitable annuity product, comprised 78 percent and 71 percent of second quarter and year-to-date sales, respectively.

Protection Product Results and Sales²

     Pre-tax operating income for the protection segment was $33.8 million compared to $29.8 million during the second quarter of 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to increased product margins. Year-to-date, pre-tax operating income was $67.0 million compared to $65.3 million for the first six months of 2002.

     Second quarter fixed life sales were $30.7 million, compared to $36.9 million in the second quarter of 2002. Year-to-date, fixed life sales were $62.0 million, compared to $67.7 million in the first six months of 2002. Equity-index life sales, AmerUs Group’s most profitable protection product, increased 21 percent to $25 million through the first six months of 2003, a new record. “While we experienced a temporary decline in sales early in the quarter, sales have rebounded to expected levels and we expect to achieve our 2003 goals,” said Brooks.

2

Net Investment Income

     Net investment income was $250 million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $252 million in the second quarter of 2002. Growth in invested assets was offset by lower yields on new investments. The portfolio yield during the second quarter of 2003 was 5.92 percent, compared to 6.53 percent in the second quarter of 2002. Year-to-date portfolio yields were 6.01 percent, compared to 6.42 percent in the first six months of 2002. The declines in portfolio yields were offset by a corresponding reduction in credited rates.

Earnings Guidance³

     The company also reaffirmed its adjusted net operating income guidance of $3.70 to $3.80 per diluted share for 2003. “The recent increase in new money investment rates, continued growth in our business segments and greater efficiencies will contribute to achieving our operating earnings targets,” said Brooks.

Corporate Actions

     During the second quarter, the company issued $144 million of PRIDES^SM securities. The PRIDES are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “AMH A”.

     Additionally, the company completed the merger of IL Annuity and Insurance Company into its parent company, Indianapolis Life Insurance Company, effective June 30, 2003.

     AmerUs Group Co. is located in Des Moines, Iowa, and is engaged through its subsidiaries in the business of marketing individual life insurance and annuity products in the United States. Its major subsidiaries include: AmerUs Life Insurance Company, American Investors Life Insurance Company, Inc., Bankers Life Insurance Company of New York, and Indianapolis Life Insurance Company.

     As of June 30, 2003, AmerUs Group’s total assets were $21.8 billion and shareholders’ equity totaled $1.4 billion, including accumulated other comprehensive income.

¹ The company views adjusted net operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, as an important indicator of financial performance. When presented with net income, the combined presentation can enhance an investor’s understanding of AmerUs Group’s underlying profitability and normalized results from operations. The definition of adjusted net operating earnings, as presented in this press release, excludes the following items on an after-tax basis from net income: open block realized gains and losses, deferred policy acquisition costs associated with open block realized gains and losses, non-insurance operations, restructuring costs, non-recurring reinsurance adjustments and the impact of SFAS 133. Non-GAAP measures are also used for goal setting, determining employee and management compensation and evaluating our performance on a comparable basis to that used by security analysts. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted net operating income has been included as part of this press release.

² Sales for an insurance company are a non-GAAP financial measure. We do not believe there is a comparable GAAP financial measure and as a result, have not provided reconciliation. Sales are presented in accordance with industry practice and represent the amount of new business sold during the period. We believe sales are a measure of the productivity of our distribution networks. Sales are also a leading indicator of future revenue trends. However, revenues are driven by prior period sales as well as current period sales and therefore, a reconciliation of sales to revenues would not be meaningful or determinable.

³ Adjusted net operating income per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. Due to the unpredictability of the timing and recognition of gains and losses, especially items such as credit impairments, trading gains and losses, FAS 133 adjustments as well as the unpredictable nature of certain other unusual or non-recurring items that management believes are not indicative of ongoing operational performance, guidance on GAAP net income cannot readily be estimated. Accordingly, the company is unable to provide guidance with respect to, or a reconciliation of guidance on, adjusted net operating income per share to GAAP net income per share.

ADJUSTED NET OPERATING INCOME
($ in thousands, except share data)

Adjusted net operating income reflects net income adjusted to eliminate certain items, such as open block realized gains and losses, deferred policy acquisition costs associated with the open block realized gains and losses, non-insurance operations, restructuring costs, reinsurance adjustments and the impact of SFAS 133. Adjusted net operating income shown below does not constitute our net income computed in accordance with GAAP. The adjustments are presented net of income taxes.

AMERUS GROUP CO.
NOTES TO ADJUSTED NET OPERATING INCOME

(A)	Represents total open block realized gains or losses on investments. Open block realized gains or losses may vary widely between periods. Such amounts are determined by management’s timing of individual transactions or current market conditions and do not necessarily correspond to the underlying operating trends.
(B)	Represents amortization of DAC and VOBA on the open block realized gains or losses that are included in our product margins.
(C)	Represents the net effect of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” related accounting entries. The accounting entries consist of cash flow hedge amortization, market value adjustments on trading securities, derivatives, equity-indexed contracts, and the associated change in amortization of DAC and VOBA resulting from such adjustments.
(D)	Represents costs directly related to our demutualizations. The costs consist primarily of legal, actuarial and consulting expenses.
(E)	Represents costs of restructuring our operations to eliminate duplicative functions and to merge IL Annuity into ILIC. The costs consist primarily of relocation of employees, severance and termination benefits, systems conversion, and merger related expenses. In addition, the second quarter of 2003 included a $5.0 million impairment loss on the Indianapolis Life office building.
(F)	Represents the net income from our residential financing and property operations which is not part of our insurance operations.
(G)	Represents adjustments for the release of a $5.3 million liability in conjunction with the settlement and amendment of a reinsurance arrangement and a $2.8 million true-up of pre-2003 reinsurance settlements under a reinsurance arrangement between the ILIC open block and closed block. As these items are not of a continuing nature, they are excluded from adjusted net operating income.

(1)	The Company views Adjusted Net Operating Income, a non-GAAP financial measure, as an important indicator of financial performance. When presented with net income, the combined presentation can enhance an investor’s understanding of AmerUs Group’s underlying profitability and normalized results from operations. Non-GAAP measures are also used for goal setting, determining employee and management compensation and evaluating our performance on a comparable basis to that used by security analysts.
(2)	Adjusted Net Operating Income per Share is a non-GAAP financial measure which is derived from Adjusted Net Operating Income in the same manner that Net Income per Share is derived from Net Income.
(3)	Common shares outstanding at 6/30/2003 and 12/31/2002 were 39,083,495 and 39,011,578, respectively.
(4)	Debt-to-Capital Ratio excludes AOCI. For Standard & Poor’s, the OCEANs, PRIDES, AmerUs Capital I and AmerUs Capital II are treated as 100% equity, except to the extent the sum of these securities exceeds 15% of total capitalization. The amount in excess of 15% of capitalization was $107,993 and none as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. For Moody’s, AmerUs Capital I and AmerUs Capital II are treated as 100% debt, the OCEANs are treated as 75% debt and 25% equity, and the PRIDES are treated as 50% debt and 50% equity.

Sales and deposits for an insurance company are a non-GAAP financial measure. We do not believe there is a comparable GAAP financial measure and as a result, have not provided a reconciliation. Sales and deposits are presented in accordance with industry practice and represent the amount of new business sold during the period. We believe sales are a measure of the productivity of our distribution networks. Sales and deposits are also a leading indicator of future revenue trends. However, revenues are driven by prior period sales as well as current period sales and therefore, a reconciliation of sales and deposits to revenues would not be meaningful or determinable.
