The ratings presented are based on a ratings methodology that takes into account ratings from Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Services, Inc. in that order of preference. If a security is not rated by these rating agencies, an internal rating is formulated. For securities with credit support from third party guarantees, the rating reflects the greater of the underlying rating of the issuer or the insured rating.

Definitions and Presentation


•	Collectively, CNA Financial Corporation (CNAF) and its subsidiaries are referred to as CNA or the Company.


•	P&C Operations include CNA Specialty, CNA Commercial and Hardy.

•

The Life & Group Non-Core segment primarily includes the results of our individual and group long term care business, as well as closed blocks of structured settlement liabilities, group accident and health reinsurance and life settlement contracts. These businesses are being managed as a run-off operation. Our group long term care business, while considered non-core, continues to accept new employees in existing groups.


•	Corporate & Other Non-Core segment primarily includes certain corporate expenses including interest on corporate debt and the results of certain property and casualty business in run-off, including CNA Re and asbestos and environmental pollution. Intersegment eliminations are also included in this segment.

•

On August 1, 2014, the Company closed the previously announced sale of the majority of its run-off annuity and pension deposit business through the sale of the common stock of CAC. The business sold, which was previously reported within the Life & Group Non-Core segment, is reported as discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale. In connection with the then pending sale, the Company recorded an estimated after-tax impairment loss of $214 million in the first quarter of 2014, which is reflected in Income (loss) from discontinued operations.


•	Management utilizes the net operating income financial measure to monitor the Company’s operations. Please refer to Note O to the Consolidated Financial Statements within the 2013 Form 10-K for further discussion of this measure.

•

In the evaluation of the results of CNA Specialty, CNA Commercial and Hardy, management utilizes the loss ratio, the expense ratio, the dividend ratio and the combined ratio. These ratios are calculated using financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The loss ratio is the percentage of net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio is the percentage of insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. The dividend ratio is the ratio of policyholders' dividends incurred to net earned premiums. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss, expense and dividend ratios. The statutory expense ratio reported on page 17 is the percentage of acquisition and underwriting expenses to net written premiums in accordance with statutory accounting practices.

•

The majority of our limited partnership investments employ hedge fund strategies that generate returns primarily through investing in the fixed income and equity markets. While the Company generally does not invest in highly leveraged partnerships, there are risks which may result in losses due to short-selling, derivatives or other speculative investment practices. The use of leverage increases volatility generated by the underlying investment strategies.


•	Certain immaterial differences are due to rounding.


•	N/M = Not Meaningful
