CNA FINANCIAL ANNOUNCES
3rd QUARTER 2003 NET LOSS AND CAPITAL PLAN

CHICAGO, November 12, 2003 -— CNA Financial Corporation (NYSE: CNA) today announced third quarter of 2003 results, which included significant reserve strengthening as a result of the Company’s recently completed reserve reviews. The Company also announced a plan to strengthen its capital base.

The third quarter of 2003 results included the following after-tax charges:

    Net prior year development of $1,495 million, which includes premium and claim and allocated claim adjustment expense development.

    Increase in bad debt reserves for insurance and reinsurance receivables of $332 million.

Including the above items, the Company reported a net loss for the third quarter of 2003 of $1,760 million, or $7.94 per share, as compared with net income of $54 million, or $0.24 per share, for the same period in 2002. The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $1,607 million, or $7.39 per share, compared with net income of $105 million, or $0.47 per share, for the same period in 2002.

The net prior year development consisted of $978 million after-tax related to core reserves and $517 million after-tax related to asbestos, environmental pollution and mass tort (APMT) reserves. The primary factors that led to the net prior year development were the previously announced third quarter of 2003 comprehensive reserve reviews, which included construction defect and other volatile exposures, and a ground up analysis of APMT exposures. The net prior year development also resulted in additional cessions to the Company’s reinsurance contracts, including the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties. These additional cessions resulted in $67 million of after-tax interest expense, which is recorded as a reduction in net investment income.

To support statutory capital adversely impacted by the significant third quarter charges, CNA has developed a capital plan, which includes substantial support from Loews Corporation (Loews), the owner of 90% of CNA’s outstanding shares. The capital plan includes a number of components, including the capital support from Loews and possible sales or other dispositions of businesses and assets. Under an agreement approved by a special committee of independent members of CNA’s Board of Directors, Loews has agreed to purchase $750 million of a new series of CNA non-voting convertible preferred stock, having terms that make it economically equivalent to CNA common stock. The conversion price is based on current average market prices of CNA common stock. Proceeds from the preferred stock sale will be applied by CNA to increase the statutory surplus of CNA’s principal insurance subsidiary, Continental Casualty Company (CCC). Under the agreement, Loews has also committed up to $500 million of additional capital support, through the purchase of surplus notes of CCC, in the event that certain additions to CCC’s statutory capital are not achieved by February 26, 2004 from business or asset sales and related actions. The obligation of Loews to consummate this agreement is subject to certain customary closing conditions. In addition, Loews has indicated its commitment to provide up to an additional $150 million by March 31, 2004, in a form to be determined, to support the statutory capital of CCC in the event of additional shortfalls in relation to business and asset sales. Other elements of the capital plan include the October of 2003 sale of CNA Re renewal rights and withdrawal from the assumed reinsurance business, CNA’s previously announced initiative to reduce operating expenses by $200 million and planned changes in the ownership structure of certain insurance subsidiaries to align statutory capital more efficiently.

“CNA has undergone enormous change over the last two years” said Stephen W. Lilienthal, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the CNA insurance companies. “Essentially, we have re-underwritten, re-platformed, re-staffed and repositioned the business portfolio, and will be recapitalizing CNA. I am certainly disappointed with the actions necessary to strengthen our balance sheet, but I remain very positive about the current performance of our core businesses, particularly Property and Casualty and Group Operations.”

The current accident year continued to improve within the primary property and casualty businesses as evidenced by strong rate increases during the quarter and solid production of new business. Gross written premiums increased 12% in the third quarter of 2003 compared with the same period in 2002.

Realized investment results increased $89 million after-tax in the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002. This increase was due primarily to increased realized gains related to derivative securities and a reduction in impairment losses for other-than-temporary declines in market values for fixed maturity and equity securities, partially offset by decreased gains on sales of fixed maturity securities. After-tax investment related impairment losses were $10 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with $144 million for the same period in 2002.

Business Operating Highlights

Standard Lines includes standard property and casualty coverages sold to small and middle market commercial businesses primarily through an independent agency distribution system, and excess and surplus lines, as well as insurance and risk management products sold to large corporations.

  Net written premiums decreased $199 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002. This decrease was due primarily to increased ceded premiums, including premiums ceded to corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties, as a result of the net unfavorable prior year reserve development recorded in the third quarter of 2003.

  Standard Lines achieved average rate increases during the third quarter of 2003 of 16%.

  Net results for the third quarter of 2003 decreased $970 million as compared with the same period in 2002, primarily related to a $798 million after-tax increase in unfavorable net prior year development, $26 million after-tax increase in dividend reserve development, $168 million after-tax increase in the bad debt provisions for insurance and reinsurance receivables, $48 million after-tax increase in certain insurance-related assessments and $51 million increase in interest expense related to reinsurance contracts. These declines were partially offset by improvements in the current net accident year loss ratio and net investment results.

Specialty Lines provides a broad array of professional, financial and specialty property and casualty products and services in the U.S. and abroad.

  Net written premiums increased $91 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002, due primarily to rate increases and new business in professional liability lines, partially offset by increased ceded premiums to corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties as a result of the net unfavorable prior year reserve development recorded in the third quarter of 2003.

  Specialty Lines achieved average rate increases during the third quarter of 2003 of 21%, primarily across most professional liability lines of business.

  Net results for the third quarter of 2003 decreased $88 million as compared with the same period in 2002, primarily related to a $92 million after-tax increase in unfavorable net prior year development, $18 million after-tax increase in ULAE reserves, $51 million after-tax increase in the bad debt provision for reinsurance receivables, $10 million after-tax increase in certain insurance-related assessments and $4 million increase in interest expense related to reinsurance contracts. These declines were partially offset by improvements in the current net accident year loss ratio and net investment results.

CNA Re operated globally as a reinsurer in the broker market for treaty products and in the direct market for facultative products.

  In October of 2003, CNA sold the renewal rights for most of the treaty business of CNA Re to Folksamerica Reinsurance Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. Concurrent with the sale, CNA announced its withdrawal from the assumed reinsurance business.

  Net written premiums decreased $58 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002, due primarily to increased ceded premiums to corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties, as a result of the net unfavorable prior year reserve development recorded in the third quarter of 2003.

  Net results for the third quarter of 2003 decreased $48 million as compared to the same period in 2002, primarily related to $45 million after-tax increase in unfavorable net prior year development, and $9 million after-tax increase in interest expense related to reinsurance contracts.

Group Operations provides a broad array of group life and group health insurance and investment products and services to employers, affinity groups and other entities that purchase insurance as a group.

  Net earned premiums increased $46 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002, due principally to new sales and rate increases in the disability, specialty medical, life and long term care products within Group Benefits.

  Group Operations achieved average rate increases during the third quarter of 2003 of approximately 5%.

  Net income for the third quarter of 2003 increased $8 million as compared with the same period in 2002, primarily related to increased net realized investment gains of $13 million, partially offset by $9 million of after-tax non-recurring fee income received in the third quarter of 2002 in relation to the transfer of the Mail Handlers Plan.

Life Operations provides financial protection to individuals through a full product line of term life insurance, universal life insurance, individual long term care insurance, annuities and other products. Life Operations has several distribution relationships and partnerships including managing general agencies, other independent agencies working with CNA life sales offices, a network of brokers and dealers, and other independent insurance consultants.

  Net earned premiums increased $28 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002, due primarily to higher sales of structured settlement annuities and a higher base of the inforce long term care product.

  Net income for the third quarter of 2003 increased $14 million as compared with the same period in 2002, primarily related to increased net realized investment results, partially offset by unfavorable individual long term care morbidity due to increased frequency of claims, and a $3 million after-tax write-off of capitalized software costs.

Corporate and Other segment contains certain corporate expenses such as interest on corporate debt and losses and expenses related to the centralized adjusting and settlement of APMT. In addition, this segment includes the results of certain run-off insurance and non-insurance operations.

  Net results for the third quarter of 2003 decreased $730 million as compared with the same period in 2002, primarily related to a $545 million after-tax increase in unfavorable net prior year development, principally related to APMT, $44 million after-tax increase in ULAE reserves, $112 million after-tax increase in the bad debt provision for reinsurance receivables and $10 million after-tax increase in certain insurance-related assessments.

Net Investment Income

Pretax net investment income decreased $12 million to $352 million for the third quarter of 2003 as compared with the same period in 2002. The change was primarily due to lower investment yields on fixed maturity securities and a $95 million increase in interest costs on funds withheld and other deposits related to certain reinsurance contracts. The interest costs on these reinsurance contracts increased due to additional cessions to the corporate aggregate and other reinsurance treaties as a result of the unfavorable net prior year development recorded in the third quarter of 2003. These declines were partially offset by improved limited partnership investment results.

(CNA LOGO) CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION DEFINITIONS AND PRESENTATION o P&C OPERATIONS includes Standard Lines and Specialty Lines. o P&C SEGMENTS includes Standard Lines, Specialty Lines and CNA Re. o CORPORATE & OTHER is comprised primarily of losses and expenses related to the centralized adjusting and settlement of asbestos, environmental pollution and mass tort claims, certain run-off insurance and non-insurance operations. The Corporate & Other segment results also include interest expense on corporate borrowings. o P&C COMPANIES includes Standard Lines, Specialty Lines, CNA Re and P&C business written in Group Operations, Life Operations and Corporate & Other. o The results from discontinued operations relate to CNA Vida, CNA's Chilean-based life insurer, which was sold in the first quarter of 2002. CNA Vida's results of operations, including the loss on sale, are reported as discontinued operations in all periods presented as required by SFAS 144. o Underwriting results are net earned premiums less net incurred claims, the costs incurred to settle claims, acquisition expenses and underwriting expenses. o The Loss & LAE ratio represents claim and claim adjustment expenses as a percentage of net earned premiums. o The expense ratio is the percentage of underwriting expenses, acquisition expenses and dividends, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. o The dividend ratio is the ratio of dividends incurred to net earned premiums. o Limited partnerships (LP's) are a relatively small portion of CNA's overall investment portfolio. The majority of the LP's invest in a substantial number of securities that are readily marketable. CNA is a passive investor in such partnerships and does not have influence over the partnerships' management, who are committed to operate them according to established guidelines and strategies. These strategies may include the use of leverage and hedging techniques that potentially introduce more volatility and risk to the partnerships. o All amounts are in millions, except for per share and ratio information. o Certain immaterial differences are due to rounding. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS o During the third quarter of 2002, the Company completed its initial goodwill impairment testing under SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and recorded a $57 million after-tax impairment charge. The impairment was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as of January 1, 2002, in Specialty Lines, Life Operations and Corporate & Other. i (CNA LOGO) CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This financial supplement presents certain GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to provide information used by management to monitor the Company's operating performance. Management utilizes various financial measures to monitor the Company's insurance operations and investment portfolio. Underwriting results, which are derived from certain income statement amounts, are considered non-GAAP financial measures and are used by management to monitor performance of the Company's insurance operations. The Company's investment portfolio is monitored through analysis of various quantitative and qualitative factors, and certain decisions related to the sale or impairment of investments produce realized gains and losses. Net realized investment gains and losses, which are comprised of after-tax realized investment gains and losses net of participating policyholders' and minority interest, are a non-GAAP financial measure. Underwriting results are computed as net earned premiums less net incurred claims and the cost incurred to settle these claims, acquisition expenses and underwriting expenses. Management uses underwriting results and operating ratios to monitor insurance operations' results without the impact of certain factors, including investment income, other revenues, other expenses, minority interest, income tax benefit (expense) and net realized investment gains or losses. Management excludes these factors in order to analyze the direct relationship between the net earned premiums and the related claims and the cost incurred to settle these claims, acquisition expenses and underwriting expenses. Management excludes after-tax net realized investment gains or losses when analyzing the insurance operations because net realized investment gains or losses related to the Company's available-for-sale investment portfolio are largely discretionary, except for losses related to other-than-temporary impairments, and are generally driven by economic factors that are not necessarily consistent with key drivers of underwriting performance. Operating ratios are calculated using insurance results and are used by the insurance industry and regulators such as state departments of insurance and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners for financial regulation and as a basis of comparison among companies. The ratios presented in this financial supplement are calculated using GAAP financial results and include the loss and loss adjustment expense ratio (loss ratio) as well as the expense, dividend and combined ratios. 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 underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. The dividend ratio is the ratio of dividends incurred to net earned premiums. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss, expense and dividend ratios. The Company's investment portfolio is monitored by management through analyses of various factors including unrealized gains and losses on securities, portfolio duration and exposure to interest rate, market and credit risk. Based on such analyses, the Company may impair an investment security in accordance with its policy, or sell a security. Such activities will produce realized gains and losses. While management uses various non-GAAP financial measures to monitor various aspects of the Company's performance, relying on any measure other than net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to underwriting results and realized gains and losses, is not a complete representation of financial performance. Management believes that its process of evaluating performance through the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides a basis for understanding the operations and the impact to net income as a whole. Management also believes that investors find these non-GAAP financial measures described above useful to help interpret the underlying trends and performance, as well as to provide visibility into the significant components of net income. ii (CNA LOGO) CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION FINANCIAL SUPPLEMENT STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
