(a)   The year ended December 31, 2006 per share results available to common stockholders are reduced by $46 million, or $0.17 per share, of undeclared preferred stock dividends. The three months and year ended December 31, 2005 per share results available to common stockholders are reduced by $18 million and $70 million, or $0.07 per share and $0.27 per share, of undeclared preferred stock dividends. The undeclared but accumulated preferred stock dividends relate to the Company’s Series H Cumulative Preferred Stock which was repurchased from Loews Corporation on August 8, 2006.
Net operating income from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2006 increased $420 million as compared with the same period in 2005. The Property & Casualty Operations produced combined ratios of 95.1% and 101.4% in the fourth quarter of 2006 and 2005, before the 3.9 and 20.0 point impacts of significant commutations and catastrophes. Additionally, net investment income increased significantly.
“This was a very good year for CNA,” said Stephen W. Lilienthal, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CNA Financial Corporation. “Earnings were strong and return on equity was much improved. Our core P&C Operations performed very well. Investment income was strong. We continued to strengthen our balance sheet, and our runoff businesses performed in a controlled and orderly fashion. A fourth quarter reinsurance commutation was the last in a series of commutations that effectively eliminated an interest cost drag on earnings that exceeded $300 million just three years ago. Overall, CNA delivered in 2006 and is positioned for consistent, sustainable performance going forward.”
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2006 increased $546 million as compared with the same period in 2005. This increase was due to the improved net operating results and increased net realized investment results. Net loss from discontinued operations includes a $29 million impairment loss related to the anticipated sale of a portion of the run-off business.
Net operating income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 increased $817 million as compared with the same period in 2005. The increase was due to significantly decreased catastrophe impacts in 2006 as compared to 2005, as well as the favorable full-year impacts of the items discussed in the three month comparison above. The Property & Casualty Operations produced a combined ratio of 95.0% and 98.4% for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, before the 1.4 and 11.6 point impacts of significant commutations and catastrophes.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 increased $844 million as compared with the same period in 2005. This increase was primarily due to improved net operating income and net realized investment results, partially offset by unfavorable results from discontinued operations.

Standard Lines includes standard property and casualty coverages sold to small and middle market commercial businesses primarily through an independent agency distribution system. This business also includes excess and surplus lines, as well as insurance and risk management products sold to large corporations.
  Net written premiums increased $9 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 as compared with the same period in 2005. Standard Lines retention remained flat at 81% as compared to the same period in 2005. Rates on average decreased 1% during the fourth quarter of 2006.
 
  Net operating income increased $252 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 as compared with the same period in 2005. Operating results improved in the fourth quarter of 2006 due to decreased impacts from significant commutations and catastrophes as compared to the same period in 2005. Also favorably impacting net operating results was an increase in net investment income.
 
  Net results for the fourth quarter of 2006 increased $344 million as compared with the same period in 2005. This improvement was attributable to increases in net operating income and net realized investment results.
Specialty Lines provides a broad array of professional, financial and specialty property and casualty products and services.
  Net written premiums increased $23 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 as compared with the same period in 2005. Specialty Lines retention improved 1 point to 88% as compared to the same period in 2005. Rates on average decreased 2% during the fourth quarter of 2006.
 
  Net operating income increased $53 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 as compared with the same period in 2005. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in net investment income. In addition, the 2005 results were adversely impacted by a loss related to significant commutations.
 
  Net income increased $80 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 as compared with the same period in 2005. This increase was attributable to increased net operating income and net realized investment results.

Life and Group Non-Core primarily includes the results of the life and group lines of business that have either been sold or placed in run-off. Net earned premiums relate primarily to the group and individual long term care businesses.
  Net results for the fourth quarter of 2006 increased $39 million as compared with the same period in 2005. This increase was primarily driven by increases in net investment income and net realized investment results.
Corporate and Other Non-Core contains certain corporate expenses such as interest on corporate debt, and losses and expenses related to the centralized adjusting and settlement of asbestos, environmental pollution and mass tort claims. In addition, this segment includes the results of certain property and casualty insurance run-off operations, including CNA Re.
  Net results for the fourth quarter of 2006 increased $119 million as compared with the same period in 2005. The 2006 results benefited from a decrease in unfavorable net prior year development, including the impact of commutations, and increased net investment income. Net prior year development recorded in 2006 included $63 million pre-tax related to mass tort exposures.
Net Investment Income
Pretax net investment income for the fourth quarter of 2006 increased $143 million over the same period of 2005. The improvement was primarily driven by interest rate increases across fixed maturity securities and short term investments, an increase in the overall invested asset base resulting from improved cashflow, improved results from limited partnerships and a reduction of interest expense on funds withheld and other deposits. During 2006 and 2005, we commuted several significant finite reinsurance contracts, which contained interest crediting provisions. As a result, interest expense on funds withheld has declined significantly.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT
This press release includes statements which relate to anticipated future events (forward-looking statements) rather than actual present conditions or historical events. You can identify forward-looking statements because generally they include words such as “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “estimates” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to a variety of inherent risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results projected. Many of these risks and uncertainties cannot be controlled by CNA. For a detailed description of these risks and uncertainties please refer to CNA’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available at www.cna.com.
Any forward-looking statements made in this press release are made by CNA as of the date of this press release. CNA does not have any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement contained in this press release, even if CNA’s expectations or any related events, conditions or circumstances change.
In evaluating the results of the Standard Lines and Specialty Lines, management utilizes the combined ratio, the loss ratio, the expense ratio and the dividend ratio. These ratios are calculated using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) financial results. 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.
This press release may also contain financial measures that are not in accordance with GAAP. For reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures, refer to this press release and the financial supplement posted on the Company’s website.

DEFINITIONS AND PRESENTATION
  P&C Operations includes Standard Lines and Specialty Lines.
 
  Life & Group Non-Core segment primarily includes the results of the life and group lines of business that have been placed in run-off.
 
  Corporate & Other Non-Core segment includes the results of certain property and casualty lines of business placed in run-off, including CNA Re. This segment also includes the results related to the centralized adjusting and settlement of asbestos, environmental pollution and mass tort (APMT) claims and interest expense on corporate debt.
 
  Property and Casualty Companies includes Standard Lines, Specialty Lines and P&C business written in the Life & Group Non-Core and Corporate & Other Non-Core segments.
 
  Management utilizes the net operating income financial measure to monitor the Company’s operations. Please refer to Note O of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements within the September 30, 2006 Form 10-Q for further discussion of this measure.
 
  In evaluating the results of Standard Lines and Specialty Lines, management utilizes the combined ratio, the loss ratio, the expense ratio, and the dividend ratio. These ratios are calculated using financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). 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.
 
  Limited partnerships (LPs) are a relatively small portion of CNA’s overall investment portfolio. The majority of the LPs invest in a substantial number of securities that are readily marketable. CNA is primarily 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.
 
  Certain immaterial differences are due to rounding.
