 “We are very disappointed with the quarter, which reflects a confluence of negative events and factors, some specific to Phoenix and others clearly market-related.  The results present a stark contrast to a year ago, when we benefited from the buoyancy of the equity markets, as well as investment income and mortality that were both unusually favorable.  These same factors slipped dramatically a year later and drove the quarter’s results.  However, from an operational and strategic standpoint, the quarter had its share of successes,” said Dona D. Young, chairman, president and chief executive officer.

“Earnings this quarter were affected by weakness of the equity markets and lack of liquidity in the fixed income markets, which reduced investment income and valuations.  In addition, we had adverse mortality in the quarter, driven by a few large claims on policies issued several years ago.  Fluctuations in mortality are a normal part of our business, and our long-range mortality experience remains in line with our expectations. The quarter also included an intangible asset impairment as a result of a previously announced review.  Expenses were higher than usual with the addition of proxy contest costs, as well as costs relating to the planned spin-off of the Asset Management business.  At the time of the spin-off, these expenses will be largely moved to discontinued operations,” she said.

“At the same time, the quarter signaled the start of significant new initiatives for Phoenix.  We announced our decision to spin off the Asset Management business from the ongoing Life and Annuity company, and our two newest businesses, Alternative Retirement Solutions and Phoenix Life Solutions, began operating.  Sales in our existing life insurance and annuity product lines were very strong, reflecting broader and deeper distribution relationships.  Mutual fund and managed account flows improved from the fourth quarter after picking up in March.

“Despite the difficult start to the year, we remain focused on the factors within our control to improve our performance for the balance of 2008 and beyond.  These results do not change our long-term outlook or strategy,” Mrs. Young said.

 

FIRST QUARTER 2008 HIGHLIGHTS

·

The company reported a net loss of $19.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared with net income of $50.6 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2007. The current quarter includes $15.1 million in net realized losses, primarily due to impaired investments held in the company’s general account portfolio.

·

The company had a total operating loss of $4.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with total operating income of $37.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2007. The loss was driven by higher mortality, an intangible asset impairment, weaker market performance that lowered net investment income and affected fees adversely, and higher corporate expenses related to the company’s proxy contest and planned spin-off of Asset Management.

·

Life and Annuity pre-tax operating income for the quarter declined from the prior-year period, largely reflecting adverse mortality in the universal life and variable universal life product lines and the impact of weak market conditions.

Adverse mortality in the quarter was driven by two large death claims.  These claims, on policies issued in 1998 and 2003, more than account for the adverse results.  They also account for 57 percent of all claims in the open universal life and variable universal life blocks of business, almost double the average for recent quarters.  Given the high average face amount and high retention in the company’s inforce business, quarterly fluctuations in mortality experience are inevitable.  However, long-term mortality experience remains favorable.

Market conditions resulted in lower net investment income, due mainly to lower income from mezzanine, private equity and partnership investments. Lower asset balances in fixed annuities also contributed to the decline. In addition, the drop in the equity markets resulted in lower earnings for variable annuity and variable universal life products.

·

Annualized premium more than doubled to $113.2 million from $52.1 million in the prior-year period. Sales through the Brokerage General Agency (BGA) channel, which the company entered in late 2006, quintrupled year over year.  Sales through State Farm grew 28 percent from the prior-year period, as the number of State Farm agents selling Phoenix products grew 16 percent.  Total life insurance sales (annualized and single premium) of $125.5 million also more than doubled from the $62.3 million in the first quarter of 2007.  

·

Combined universal life and variable universal life insurance inforce rose 20 percent year over year.

·

Annuity deposits of $169.1 million in the quarter rose 29 percent from $131.3 million in the first quarter of 2007.  The State Farm distribution relationship continued to dominate annuity sales, accounting for 73 percent of the total, with 58 percent growth year over year.   Sales through the National Life Group relationship, which began in February 2007, also grew substantially.  The company had $33 million in annuity net flows in the quarter.

·

Life insurance sales and annuity deposits exclude private placement deposits.  Total private placement life and annuity deposits were $41.6 million in the first quarter of 2008, compared with $65.6 million in the prior-year period.  Deposits from private placement sales can vary widely because they involve fewer, but significantly larger, cases.

$(11,197.7)


·

Asset Management EBITDA in the first quarter of 2008 decreased from the prior-year period due to lower fees from lower assets under management.

·

The decrease in pre-tax operating income reflects the lower fees as well as a $10.5 million pre-tax ($6.5 million, after tax) non-cash charge from an intangible asset impairment related primarily to the loss of a general account mandate for a non-affiliated insurance company, the only institutional relationship of its kind.  While it represented $3.7 billion in assets under management (AUM), it generated low fees and annual EBITDA of approximately $0.9 million.

·

Pre-tax operating margin, before intangible amortization, was 9.0 percent in the first quarter of 2008, compared with 14.4 percent in the prior-year period.

·

First quarter negative net flows were $4.4 billion, compared with positive net flows of $810.2 million in the prior-year period.

Outflows of $5.7 billion were driven by the $3.7 billion in the institutional relationship mentioned above.  Excluding those assets, outflows were $2.0 billion, lower than the $2.4 billion in the year-ago quarter, and continue the improving trend of the last four years.

Inflows were lower than the year-ago quarter, reflecting the absence of structured finance deals and retail investor behavior in the challenging market environment.  Mutual fund net flows improved from the fourth quarter but still represent a decline from the strong first quarter of 2007.  Managed account flows improved from both the first and fourth quarters of 2007.

·

The year-over-year decrease in AUM primarily reflects cumulative institutional net outflows of $4.3 billion and market depreciation of $4.4 billion.

·

For the period ended March 31, 2008, 34 percent, 44 percent and 56 percent of AUM outperformed their benchmarks for the one-, three- and five-year periods, respectively.  The decrease from previous periods is attributable entirely to fixed income strategies; equity AUM exceeding benchmarks improved for all periods.  The decline in fixed income performance relative to benchmark is attributable to the disruptions in the fixed income markets over the past year, which affected most active bond managers.  Phoenix’s percentage of fixed income assets in the top third of their relative peer rankings is unchanged for the one-year period as compared to March 31, 2007.


Corporate and Other

Corporate and Other had a pre-tax loss of $20.6 million in the first quarter of 2008, compared with a $9.2 million pre-tax loss in the prior-year period.  The current quarter had lower corporate net investment income, as well as higher corporate expenses, which included $4.6 million related to the proxy contest and $3.0 million related to the planned spin-off of Asset Management. Excluding the proxy and spin-off costs and the impact of a change in accounting for deferred compensation liabilities, corporate expenses were in line with the prior-year period.

The company expects to report approximately $6 million in remaining proxy expenses in the second quarter.  Costs relating to the planned spin-off will be largely reversed out of operating income and reflected in discontinued operations when the spin-off is completed.


FIRST QUARTER 2008 STATUTORY RESULTS FOR PHOENIX LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

·

Statutory net gain from operations was $11.4 million in the first quarter of 2008, compared with $42.2 million in the prior-year period.  The decline reflects lower investment income and modestly higher net claims costs.  Compared with the GAAP results, the claims costs had less of an impact on statutory results because reinsurance recoveries are recognized in the current period.

·

Statutory surplus and asset valuation reserve was $946.6 million at March 31, 2008, compared with $1.04 billion at year-end 2007. The decline reflects sales-related expenses from higher life and annuity sales, investment impairments, and a dividend payable to the parent company.

·

The estimated risk-based capital ratio ended the quarter within the company’s 375-400 percent targeted range.

NET REALIZED INVESTMENT GAINS AND LOSSES

The company reported net realized investment losses of $15.1 million in the first quarter of 2008, compared with $12.2 million in net realized gains in the prior-year period.  The majority of the losses were due to credit impairments.

Gross credit impairments in the first quarter were $40.4 million, compared with $1.0 million in the prior-year period.  Net credit impairments after offsets for taxes, deferred acquisition costs and policyholder dividend obligation were $12.8 million in the first quarter of 2008, compared with $0.1 million in the prior-year period.  The impairments in the current quarter were predominantly in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities.

_________

(1)

In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), Phoenix uses non-GAAP financial measures such as total operating income, total operating income per share, operating income, pre-tax operating income and EBITDA in evaluating its financial performance. Net Income and net income per share are the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Phoenix's non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for net income and net income per share. Therefore, investors should evaluate both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures when reviewing Phoenix's performance. A reconciliation of the net income to Phoenix's non-GAAP financial measures is set forth in the tables at the end of this release. Investors should note that Phoenix's calculation of these measures may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

 

 

 

Total operating income, and components of and measures derived from total operating income, are internal performance measures used by Phoenix in the management of its operations, including its compensation plans and planning processes. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors with additional insight into the underlying trends in Phoenix's operations.

 

 

 

Total operating 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 operating income because their size and timing are frequently subject to management’s discretion.

 

Certain other items may be excluded from total operating income because we believe they are not indicative of overall operating trends and are items that management believes are non-recurring and material, and which result from a business restructuring, a change in regulatory environment, or other unusual circumstances.

 

 

 

 

 

Within its Asset Management segment, management also considers earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). Management believes EBITDA provides additional perspective on the operating efficiency and profitability of the Asset Management segment. EBITDA represents pre-tax operating income before depreciation and amortization of goodwill and intangibles.

 

 

(2)

Invested assets equals total investments plus cash and equivalents less debt and equity securities pledged as collateral.

 

 

(3)

This average equity is used for the calculation of total operating return on equity (“ROE”) 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.  ROE is calculated by dividing (i) total operating income, by (ii) average equity, excluding accumulated OCI, FIN 46-R and discontinued operations. ROE is an internal performance measure used by Phoenix in the management of its operations, including its compensation plans and planning processes. In addition, management believes that this measure provides investors with a useful metric to assess the effectiveness of Phoenix’s use of capital.
