FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Chubb Reports Second Quarter Net Income per Share of $1.42;
Operating Income per Share Is $1.27;
Combined Ratio Is 94.9% including Catastrophe Impact of 11.3 Points
 
2011 Operating Income per Share Guidance Is Increased
To Range of $5.55 to $5.85
     WARREN, New Jersey, July 21, 2011 — The Chubb Corporation [NYSE: CB] today reported that net income in the second quarter of 2011 was $419 million compared to $518 million in the second quarter of 2010. Net income per share declined 11% to $1.42 from $1.59.
     Operating income, which the company defines as net income excluding after-tax realized investment gains and losses, was $374 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $460 million in the second quarter of 2010. Operating income per share declined 10% to $1.27 from $1.41.
     The impact of catastrophes in the second quarter of 2011 was $329 million before tax, largely from tornadoes and other storms in the U.S. In the second quarter of 2010, the impact of catastrophes was $193 million before tax. The impact of catastrophes on second quarter net income and operating income per share was $0.72 in 2011 and $0.38 in 2010.
     The second quarter combined loss and expense ratio was 94.9% in 2011 compared to 90.4% in 2010. The impact of catastrophes accounted for 11.3 percentage points of the combined ratio in the second quarter of 2011, compared to 6.9 percentage points in the second quarter of 2010. Excluding the impact of catastrophes, the second quarter combined ratio was 83.6% in 2011 and 83.5% in 2010.
     The expense ratio for the second quarter was 31.3% in 2011 and 30.9% in 2010.
     Net written premiums for the second quarter increased 6% to $3.1 billion. Excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, premiums were up approximately 4%. Premiums increased 3% in the U.S. and 14% outside the U.S. (8% in local currencies).

     Property and casualty investment income after taxes for the second quarter increased 2% to $318 million in 2011 from $311 million in 2010.
     Net income for the second quarter of 2011 reflected net realized investment gains of $69 million pre-tax ($0.15 per share after-tax), compared to $90 million pre-tax ($0.18 per share after-tax) in the second quarter of 2010.
     During the second quarter, Chubb repurchased 7.0 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $455 million (an average of $64.86 per share). As of June 30, 2011, there were 14.9 million shares of common stock remaining under the current repurchase authorization.
     Average diluted shares outstanding for the second quarter were 295.4 million in 2011 and 326.7 million in 2010.
     “We produced very good results this quarter, even though Chubb and the industry both experienced record second quarter U.S. catastrophe losses,” said John D. Finnegan, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Although catastrophes had an adverse impact on our second quarter financial results of $0.72 per share, we still generated operating income per share of $1.27 and net income per share of $1.42 for the quarter. Our combined ratio of 83.6% excluding catastrophes reflected the continued strong underlying performance of each of our business units and was largely consistent with our first quarter performance.
     “We were also encouraged by the mid-single-digit increase in our net written premiums,” said Mr. Finnegan. “In addition, we saw signs that the overall pricing environment is improving in our standard commercial lines in the U.S. and in the more catastrophe-exposed areas of the world.”
Six-Month Results
     For the first six months of 2011, net income was $928 million or $3.12 per share, compared with $982 million or $2.97 per share for the first half of 2010. Operating income for the first half of 2011 totaled $779 million or $2.62 per share, compared with $841 million or $2.54 per share for the first half of 2010.
     Average diluted shares outstanding for the first six months were 297.7 million in 2011 and 330.8 million in 2010.

     The impact of catastrophes in the first six months of 2011 was $599 million pre-tax, largely resulting from the floods in Australia, earthquakes in New Zealand and Japan, and tornadoes and other storms in the U.S. In the first half of 2010, the impact of catastrophes was $537 million pre-tax. The impact of catastrophes on net income and operating income per share for the first six months was $1.31 in 2011 and $1.06 in 2010. The impact of catastrophes includes losses and loss expenses net of reinsurance recoverable and also includes reinsurance reinstatement premiums.
     The combined ratio for the first six months was 94.3% in 2011 compared to 92.0% in 2010. The impact of catastrophes in the first half accounted for 10.4 percentage points of the combined ratio in 2011 and 9.6 points in 2010. Excluding the impact of catastrophes, the combined ratio in the first half was 83.9% in 2011 and 82.4% in 2010.
     The expense ratio for the first six months was 31.5% in 2011 and 31.1% in 2010.
     Net written premiums for the first six months increased 5% to $5.9 billion. Excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, premiums were up approximately 4% in the first half of 2011. Premiums increased 2% in the U.S. and 12% outside the U.S. (9% in local currencies).
     Property and casualty investment income after taxes for the first six months increased 1% to $628 million.
     Net income for the first six months of 2011 reflects net realized investment gains of $229 million pre-tax ($0.50 per share after-tax). Net income for the first half of 2010 reflected net realized investment gains of $217 million pre-tax ($0.43 per share after-tax).
     During the first six months of 2011, Chubb repurchased 13.6 million shares of common stock at a total cost of $842 million (an average of $61.99 per share).
Outlook for 2011
     “In light of our performance in the first half of the year and our outlook for the second half,” said Mr. Finnegan, “we are increasing our guidance for full year 2011 operating income per share to a range of $5.55 to $5.85 from the range of $5.35 to $5.75 that we provided last January. This increase in earnings guidance comes despite an increase in our catastrophe loss assumption for the full year from 3.5 percentage points to 7.5 points as a result of higher than expected catastrophe losses in the first six months.”


 

4

     The impact of each percentage point of catastrophe losses on 2011 full year operating income per share is approximately $0.26.
     The revised guidance for full year 2011 also assumes:
    A 4% to 6% increase in net written premiums, including a 1% positive impact of foreign currency translation based on exchange rates as of June 30, 2011.
 
    A combined ratio between 92% and 94%.
 
    Approximately flat property and casualty investment income after taxes.
 
    Approximately 291 million average diluted shares outstanding for the year.
     Guidance and related assumptions are subject to the risks outlined in the company’s forward-looking information safe-harbor statements (see below).

Definitions of Key Terms
Operating Income: Operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income excluding after-tax realized investment gains and losses. Management uses operating income, among other measures, to evaluate its performance because the realization of investment gains and losses in any given period is largely discretionary as to timing and can fluctuate significantly, which could distort the analysis of trends.
Underwriting Income (Loss): Management evaluates underwriting results separately from investment results. The underwriting operations consist of four separate business units: personal insurance, commercial insurance, specialty insurance and reinsurance assumed. Performance of the business units is measured based on statutory underwriting results. Statutory accounting principles applicable to property and casualty insurance companies differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Under statutory accounting principles, policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses are recognized immediately, not at the time premiums are earned. Statutory underwriting income (loss) is arrived at by reducing premiums earned by losses and loss expenses incurred and statutory underwriting expenses incurred.
Management uses underwriting results determined in accordance with GAAP, among other measures, to assess the overall performance of the underwriting operations. To convert statutory underwriting results to a GAAP basis, policy acquisition expenses are deferred and amortized over the period in which the related premiums are earned. Underwriting income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP is defined as premiums earned less losses and loss expenses incurred and GAAP underwriting expenses incurred.
Property and Casualty Investment Income After Income Tax: Management uses property and casualty investment income after income tax, a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate its investment performance because it reflects the impact of any change in the proportion of the investment portfolio invested in tax exempt securities and is therefore more meaningful for analysis purposes than investment income before income tax.
Book Value per Common Share with Available-for-Sale Fixed Maturities at Amortized Cost: Book value per common share represents the portion of consolidated shareholders’ equity attributable to one share of common stock outstanding as of the balance sheet date. Consolidated shareholders’ equity includes, as part of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), the after-tax appreciation or depreciation, including unrealized other-than-temporary impairment losses, of the Corporation’s available-for-sale fixed maturities, which are carried at fair value. The appreciation or depreciation of available-for-sale fixed maturities is subject to fluctuation due to changes in interest rates and therefore could distort the analysis of trends. Management believes that book value per common share with available-for-sale fixed maturities at amortized cost, a non-GAAP financial measure, is an important measure of the underlying equity attributable to one share of common stock.
Combined Loss and Expense Ratio or Combined Ratio: The combined loss and expense ratio, expressed as a percentage, is the key measure of underwriting profitability. Management uses the combined loss and expense ratio calculated in accordance with statutory accounting principles applicable to property and casualty insurance companies to evaluate the performance of the underwriting operations. It is the sum of the ratio of losses and loss expenses to premiums earned (loss ratio) plus the ratio of statutory underwriting expenses to premiums written (expense ratio) after reducing both premium amounts by dividends to policyholders.
Net Written Premiums Growth (Decrease) Excluding the Impact of Currency Fluctuation: Management uses net written premiums growth (decrease) excluding the impact of currency fluctuation, a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the trends in net written premiums, exclusive of the effect of fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which our international business is transacted. In net written premiums growth (decrease) excluding the impact of currency fluctuation, the effect of fluctuations in the exchange rates is excluded as these rates may fluctuate significantly and could distort the analysis of trends. Net written premiums growth (decrease) excluding the impact of currency fluctuation is determined by using the same exchange rate to translate each foreign currency denominated net written premium amount in both periods.

THE CHUBB CORPORATION
Definitions of Key Terms
Underwriting Income (Loss)
Management evaluates underwriting results separately from investment results. The underwriting operations consist of four separate business units: personal insurance, commercial insurance, specialty insurance and reinsurance assumed. Performance of the business units is measured based on statutory underwriting results. Statutory accounting principles applicable to property and casualty insurance companies differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Under statutory accounting principles, policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses are recognized immediately, not at the time premiums are earned. Statutory underwriting income (loss) is arrived at by reducing premiums earned by losses and loss expenses incurred and statutory underwriting expenses incurred.
Management uses underwriting results determined in accordance with GAAP, among other measures, to assess the overall performance of the underwriting operations. To convert statutory underwriting results to a GAAP basis, policy acquisition expenses are deferred and amortized over the period in which the related premiums are earned. Underwriting income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP is defined as premiums earned less losses and loss expenses incurred and GAAP underwriting expenses incurred.
Property and Casualty Investment Income After Income Tax
Management uses property and casualty investment income after income tax, a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate its investment performance because it reflects the impact of any change in the proportion of the investment portfolio invested in tax exempt securities and is therefore more meaningful for analysis purposes than investment income before income taxes.
Book Value per Common Share with Available-for-Sale Fixed Maturities at Amortized Cost
Book value per common share represents the portion of consolidated shareholders’ equity attributable to one share of common stock outstanding as of the balance sheet date. Consolidated shareholders’ equity includes, as part of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), the after-tax appreciation or depreciation, including unrealized other-than-temporary impairment losses, of the Corporation’s available-for-sale fixed maturities, which are carried at fair value. The appreciation or depreciation of available-for-sale fixed maturities is subject to fluctuation due to changes in interest rates and therefore could distort the analysis of trends. Management believes that book value per common share with available-for-sale fixed maturities at amortized cost, a non-GAAP financial measure, is an important measure of the underlying equity attributable to one share of common stock.
Combined Loss and Expense Ratio or Combined Ratio
The combined loss and expense ratio, expressed as a percentage, is the key measure of underwriting profitability. Management uses the combined loss and expense ratio calculated in accordance with statutory accounting principles applicable to property and casualty insurance companies to evaluate the performance of the underwriting operations. It is the sum of the ratio of losses and loss expenses to premiums earned (loss ratio) plus the ratio of statutory underwriting expenses to premiums written (expense ratio) after reducing both premium amounts by dividends to policyholders.

Definitions of Key Terms
Operating Income
Operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is net income excluding after-tax realized investment gains and losses. Management uses operating income, among other measures, to evaluate its performance because the realization of investment gains and losses in any given period is largely discretionary as to timing and can fluctuate significantly, which could distort the analysis of trends.
Return on Equity and Operating Return on Equity
Return on equity is the ratio of annualized net income divided by average shareholders’ equity. Average shareholders’ equity is the average of the beginning and all quarter-end balances within the period.
Operating return on equity, a non-GAAP measure, is the ratio of annualized operating income divided by average shareholders’ equity excluding the after-tax unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments. Consolidated shareholders’ equity includes, as part of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), the after-tax appreciation or depreciation, including unrealized other-than-temporary impairment losses, of the Corporation’s available-for-sale fixed maturities and equity securities, which are carried at fair value. The appreciation or depreciation of available-for-sale fixed maturities and equity securities is subject to fluctuation and could distort the analysis of trends. Average shareholders’ equity excluding the after-tax unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments is the average of the beginning and all quarter-end balances within the period. Management uses operating return on equity, among other measures, to assess the overall performance of the Corporation.
