There can be no assurance that other factors not currently anticipated by management will not also materially and adversely affect our results of operations. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, except as required by federal securities laws.

FINANCIAL INDUSTRIES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The financial statements included herein have been presented to conform to the requirements of Form 10-Q.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company at June 30, 2007, its consolidated results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and its consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance.  The December 31, 2006 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC (“2006 Annual Report”), which includes all disclosures required by GAAP. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the 2006 Annual Report.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Financial Industries Corporation (“FIC”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

Income Taxes

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes − an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” ("FIN 48"), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions.  FIN 48 specifies how tax benefits for uncertain tax positions are to be recognized, measured and derecognized in financial statements; requires certain disclosures of uncertain tax matters; specifies how reserves for uncertain tax positions should be classified on the balance sheets; and provides transition and interim period guidance, among other provisions.  FIN 48 requires companies to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit can be recorded in the financial statements.  As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized a $1,441,000 increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits and a $255,000 increase in deferred tax assets resulting in a  $1,186,0000 reduction to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings.  The Company also reclassified, at adoption, $3,522,000 of current tax liabilities (previously recorded as a reduction to current tax receivables) and $503,000 of deferred tax liabilities to the liability for unrecognized tax benefits included within other liabilities.

Insurance Contracts

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Statement of Position 05-1, “Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection with Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts” (“SOP 05-1”).  SOP 05-1 provides guidance on accounting by insurance enterprises for deferred policy acquisition costs ("DAC") on internal replacements of insurance and investment contracts other than those specifically described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 97, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments.”  SOP 05-1 defines an internal replacement as a modification in product benefits, features, rights, or coverages that occurs by the exchange of a contract for a new contract, or by amendment, endorsement, or rider to a contract, or by the election of a feature or coverage within a contract.  It is effective for internal replacements occurring in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of SOP 05-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Servicing of Financial Assets

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 156”).  Among other requirements, SFAS 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations.  The adoption of SFAS 156 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In September, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”).  SFAS 157 establishes a common definition for fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 will be applied prospectively and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”).  SFAS 159 permits all entities the option to measure most financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates and to report related unrealized gains and losses in earnings.  The fair value option will generally be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is generally an irrevocable election.  SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company is evaluating which eligible financial instruments, if any, it will elect to account for at fair value under SFAS 159 and the related impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Discontinued Operations – Sale of Family Life Insurance Company

On December 29, 2006, Financial Industries Corporation completed the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary, Family Life Insurance Company (“Family Life”), to The Manhattan Life Insurance Company (“Manhattan Life”) for $28.0 million in cash. In accordance with SFAS 144, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the operating results of Family Life Insurance Company as discontinued operations, adjusted for certain activities as described below.

13


Prior to the sale, the Company transitioned the sales force of Family Life to a new division of Investors Life Insurance Company of North America (“Investors Life”), FIC’s remaining insurance subsidiary.  Although Investors Life is now selling similar products as those that were sold by Family Life, there are notable differences. The insurance is written on Investors Life policy forms and leads are no longer obtained from lending institutions.  Leads are now purchased through other sources and the focus is on a different market demographic than the previous Family Life target market. The new division also now sells final expense insurance products, which was not a market focus for Family Life. Additionally, as a condition of the sales agreement, the new division of Investors Life is prohibited from selling products to existing policyholders and related customers of Family Life for five years.

In connection with the sale of Family Life, Investors Life entered into a coinsurance agreement with Family Life pursuant to which Investors Life will cede to Family Life (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Manhattan Life) 35% of the face amount of mortgage protection term policies written by the Family Sales Division during the five-year period beginning April 1, 2007 and ending March 31, 2012. Such business will be administered by Investors Life, and Investors Life will receive allowances for its expenses on the portion of the business that is ceded. Accordingly, the Company accrued a deferred revenue liability of $1.4 million in conjunction with recording the sale of Family Life, equal to the estimated net present value of future business expected to be ceded to Manhattan Life. Costs associated with the Family Life agents while affiliated with Family Life, much of which were capitalized and amortized as deferred policy acquisition costs, are included in discontinued operations.

Prior to the sale, Investors Life assumed certain universal life insurance and annuity contracts written by Family Life under reinsurance treaties between the companies.  Effective September 30, 2006, Family Life and Investors Life executed recapture agreements  related to these reinsurance treaties effectively terminating these treaties and removing Investors Life from any liability for life insurance and annuity contracts written by Family Life. Accordingly, all revenues and costs associated with these universal life insurance and annuity contracts are included in discontinued operations.

Also, prior to the closing of the sale, the Family Life Pension Plan, along with its assets and liabilities, was transferred from Family Life to its upstream parent company and all current and future obligations of the Family Life Pension Plan remain the responsibility of the Company. Accordingly, the Family Life Pension Plan liabilities and costs were not included in discontinued operations.

Family Life owned 648,640 shares of FIC common stock prior to the sale.  Such shares were reflected as common treasury stock in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  Immediately preceding and as a condition of the sale of Family Life, 324,320 of these shares were acquired by the Company and the remaining 324,320 shares remained with Family Life at the time of the sale.  Accordingly, the shares that remained with Family Life are now reflected as outstanding common stock shares as of December 31, 2006.

Family Life shared certain operating costs, including personnel, premises, equipment and software, and other office and administrative expenses with FIC and its other subsidiaries through various sharing agreements. These agreements with Family Life were terminated upon its sale and Family Life did not retain any employees, equipment, software or liability for leases. Accordingly, the discontinued operations of Family Life were adjusted to eliminate the estimated continuing expenses associated with these shared operating costs.

In conjunction with the sale, Family Life also entered into an administrative services agreement with the Company for a three month period following the sale.  Pursuant to the agreement, the Company provided administrative services for Family Life through March 31, 2007, at which time Manhattan Life assumed all responsibilities for administering the Family Life business.  The Company earned fees totaling $807,000 in the first quarter of 2007 for services performed for Family Life in accordance with the agreement. See Note 9 regarding litigation with Manhattan Life.

Investments
 
The Company’s fixed maturity securities reflect gross unrealized losses of $25.8 million as of June 30, 2007. Approximately 97% of the unrealized losses are related to investment grade securities. The Company believes these unrealized losses are primarily related to increases in market interest rates.

As part of the Company’s ongoing investment portfolio review, the Company has evaluated its fixed maturities and equity securities investment portfolios and concluded that there were no additional other-than-temporary impairments as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Due to the issuers’ continued satisfaction of the investment obligations in accordance with their contractual terms and management’s expectation that they will continue to do so, management’s intent and ability to hold these securities, as well as the evaluation of the fundamentals of the issuers’ financial condition and other objective evidence, the Company believes that unrealized losses on these investments at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 were temporary.

15


In evaluating whether a decline in value is other than temporary, the Company considers several factors including, but not limited to, the following; (1) whether the decline is substantial; (2) the duration; (3) the reasons for the decline in value (credit event, interest related, or market fluctuations); (4) the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investments for a period of time to allow for a recovery of value; and (5) the financial condition of and near term prospects of the issuer. The evaluation for other than temporary impairments is a quantitative and qualitative process, which is subject to risks and uncertainties in the determination of whether declines in the fair value of investments are other than temporary. The risks and uncertainties include changes in general economic conditions, the issuer’s financial condition or near term recovery prospects, and the effects of changes in interest rates.

Retirement Plans

A. Family Life

Family Life has a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan (“Family Life Pension Plan”), which covers employees who have completed one year or more of service. Under the Family Life Pension Plan, benefits are payable upon retirement based on earnings and years of credited service.
 
a.
The Normal Retirement Date for all employees is the first day of the month coinciding with or next following the later of attainment of age 65 or the fifth anniversary of employment.
 
b.
The Normal Retirement Benefit is the actuarial equivalent of a life annuity, payable monthly, with the first payment commencing on the Normal Retirement Date. The life annuity is equal to the sum of (1) plus (2):
 
(1)
Annual Past Service Benefit:  1.17% of the first $10,000 of Average Final Earnings plus 1 1/2% of the excess of Average Final Earnings over $10,000, all multiplied by the participant’s Credited Past Service. For these purposes, “credited past service” is service prior to April 1, 1967, with respect to employees who were plan participants on December 31, 1975.

(2)
Annual Future Service Benefit:  1.5578% of the first $10,000 of Average Final Earnings plus 2% of the excess of Average Final Earnings over $10,000, all multiplied by the participant’s Credited Future Service.
 
c.
Effective April 1, 1997, the Family Life Pension Plan was amended to provide that the accrual rate for future service is 1.57% of Final Average Earnings multiplied by Credited Service after March 31, 1997, less 0.65% of Final Average Earnings up to Covered Compensation. With respect to service prior to April 1, 1997, the accrual rate described in paragraph (b), above, is applicable, with Average Final Earnings taking into account a participant’s earnings subsequent to April 1, 1997.

d.
Effective March 31, 2004, all employees covered under the plan were terminated.  No new or rehired employees are permitted to enter or re-enter the plan.  Thus, the plan is frozen.
 
Average Final Earnings are the highest average Considered Earnings during any five consecutive years while an active participant. Total Credited Past Service plus Credited Future Service is limited to 30 years.

The pension costs for the Family Life Pension Plan include the following components at June 30, 2007 and 2006:

B. ILCO

ILCO maintains a retirement plan (“ILCO Pension Plan”) covering substantially all employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The ILCO Pension Plan is a non-contributory, defined benefit pension plan, which covers each eligible employee who has attained 21 years of age and has completed one year or more of service. Each participating subsidiary company contributes an amount necessary (as actuarially determined) to fund the benefits provided for its participating employees.

The ILCO Pension Plan’s basic retirement income benefit at normal retirement age is 1.57% of the participant’s average annual earnings less 0.65% of the participant’s final average earnings up to covered compensation multiplied by the number of his/her years of credited service. For participants who previously participated in the ILCO Pension Plan maintained by ILCO for the benefit of former employees of the IIP Division of CIGNA Corporation (the IIP Plan), the benefit formula described above applies to service subsequent to May 31, 1996. With respect to service prior to that date, the benefit formula provided by the IIP Plan is applicable, with certain exceptions applicable to former IIP employees who are classified as highly compensated employees.

Former eligible IIP employees commenced participation automatically. The ILCO Pension Plan also provides for early retirement, postponed retirement, and disability benefits to eligible employees. Participant benefits become fully vested upon completion of five years of service, as defined, or attainment of normal retirement age, if earlier.

A curtailment occurred on December 31, 2004 when the plan was amended to freeze accrued benefits for all participants except for Rule of 68 Non-Highly Compensated Employees (“NHCEs”).  A subsequent curtailment occurred on December 31, 2005 when the decision was made to amend the plan to freeze accrued benefits for Rule of 68 NHCEs effective March 31, 2006.  All plan participants accrued benefits are now frozen.

The pension (benefit) cost for the ILCO Pension Plan include the following components at June 30, 2007 and 2006:

Stock-Based Compensation

FIC entered into a stock option agreement on February 1, 2007 with it’s chief executive officer, William Prouty, pursuant to which Mr. Prouty was issued an option to purchase 150,000 shares of the common stock of FIC at a price of $7.45 per share. Fifty percent (50%) of the option vested on February 1, 2007, and the remaining fifty percent (50%) vested on June 21, 2007 (see Note 10 “Related Party Transactions”). The option expires on June 21, 2009. Because Mr. Prouty’s option was issued as an inducement material to his entering into employment with FIC, the option was issued outside of FIC’s Incentive Stock Plan.

As further described in Part II, Item 4, the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders was held on June 29, 2007 at which time the shareholders of the Company approved the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, designed to attract, retain and reward key employees, as well as the Stock Option Plan For Non-Employee Directors. Subject to adjustments for defined changes in capital stock, the total number of shares of common stock reserved and available for grant under the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan is 500,000.  In accordance with the terms of the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, 50,000 stock option awards were granted to certain executives of the Company on June 29, 2007. The options vest in either three or four years, and have a ten year term.

Subject to adjustments for defined changes in capital stock, the total number of shares of common stock reserved and available for grant under the Stock Option Plan For Non-Employee Directors is 400,000. In accordance with the terms of the Stock Option Plan For Non-Employee Directors, 175,000 stock option awards were granted to eligible members of the Company’s Board of Directors on June 29, 2007. The options vest and are exercisable in three equal annual installments beginning with the first anniversary of the date on which the option was granted, and have a ten year term.

17


The Company recognized compensation expense of $272,000, and a related tax benefit of $0, for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 related to the vested portion of the options.

The fair value of the option awards were estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Significant assumptions used in the calculation of fair value for each option award in the period ended June 30, 2007 are as follows:

   
2004 Incentive Stock Plan
 
Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors
         
Expected term of options
 
6 years to 6.25 years

Risk free rate:
       
Range

The expected term is derived using a simplified method calculation as defined in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14.D.2, for “plain vanilla” options as that term is further defined in the bulletin, and represents the period of time that the options are expected to be outstanding. Volatility is a measure of the amount by which a financial variable, such as share price, has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate during a period. The calculated volatility was derived from the option pricing model utilizing FIC historical share price data. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero, since FIC has not paid dividends since 2003, and management does not anticipate the payment of such dividends in the near future. In accordance with SFAS 123R, the risk-free discount rate approximates the rate currently available on federal government zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term equal to the options expected life.

In connection with the election of Mr. J. Bruce Boisture as Chief Executive Officer and President of FIC in January 2004, the Board of Directors granted Mr. Boisture an option to purchase 150,000 shares of FIC common stock, at a per share price of $14.00. The grant was conditioned upon the approval by the shareholders of FIC of the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, pursuant to which the grant would be made.  In connection with the resignation of Mr. Boisture in November 2005, this grant was cancelled and, under the terms of his Separation Agreement, FIC agreed to issue 60,000 shares of its common stock to Mr. Boisture on or before June 30, 2007, provided that the Incentive Stock Plan was approved by the shareholders of FIC. In the event such approval had not been obtained by June 30, 2007, Mr. Boisture would have received a cash payment of $465,000, less applicable tax withholding.  As further described in Part II, Item 4, the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders was held on June 29, 2007 at which time the shareholders of the Company approved the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan. Accordingly, FIC has reserved 60,000 shares out of the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan related to this agreement. The Company expects to finalize the transaction and disburse the shares in the third quarter of 2007. Compensation cost of $465,000 related to this Separation Agreement was accrued in the Company’s financial statements at December 31, 2005. Based on the closing share price upon shareholder approval of the 2004 Incentive Stock Plan on June 29, 2007, the Company reduced this accrual to $354,000 in the second quarter 2007. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 128 “Earnings Per Share”, these shares are deemed to no longer be contingently issuable shares since there are no circumstances under which the shares would not be issued, and accordingly the 60,000 shares are considered outstanding and are reflected in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the period ended June 30, 2007. The table above reflects the reservation of such shares for Mr. Boisture.

Separate Accounts

The Company’s insurance subsidiary, Investors Life, had $353.9 million of separate account assets as of June 30, 2007 (not including the value of the Company’s own investment in one of the accounts), as compared to $351.0 million at the end of 2006. These assets include (a) two variable annuity separate accounts that permit contractholders to allocate their contract values among a selection of third-party mutual funds and (b) assets held in custodian accounts in connection with investment annuity contracts. Effective June 1, 2006, Investors Life recaptured the previously reinsured investment annuity business with Symetra Life resulting in the retention of 100% of this business. The Company expects the recapture of this previously reinsured business, which increased revenues in 2006, to continue to increase revenues in 2007. However, as this is a closed block of business, the revenues are expected to decrease as the policies in force decline. Investors Life is not marketing new separate account annuity contracts. Previously, the investment annuity business was reinsured with Symetra Life Insurance Company (formerly Safeco Life Insurance Company), a third-party reinsurer, on a 90%/10% coinsurance basis, with Investors Life retaining 10% of such business.

Commitments and Contingencies

T. David Porter v. Financial Industries Corporation

On May 31, 2006, T. David Porter, an FIC shareholder, filed a civil suit in Travis County, Texas District Court (the “Court”), against the Company, seeking to compel the Company to hold an annual meeting of shareholders. FIC had not been able to solicit proxies for an annual meeting because it had not been able to comply with Rule 14a-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which requires that the Company provide an annual report containing current financial statements to shareholders in connection with an annual meeting.

19


Mr. Porter sued under Article 2.24(B) of the Texas Business Corporation Act, which provides that if an annual meeting of shareholders is not held within any 13-month period and a written consent of shareholders has not been executed instead of a meeting, any court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the principal office of the corporation is located may, on the application of any shareholder, summarily order a meeting to be held. On August 7, 2006, the Company entered into an Agreed Order On Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel Annual Shareholders Meeting and agreed among other things to hold an annual shareholders meeting for the election of directors on December 6, 2006. The Company made arrangements for, and was prepared to hold, an annual meeting of shareholders on December 6, 2006, as required by the Agreed Order, but the Company was unable to hold the meeting on the appointed date because no quorum was present.

On December 12, 2006, FIC filed a Motion for Summary Judgment seeking dismissal of Porter’s suit on the grounds that the Agreed Order did not dispense with the requirement of a quorum; the lack of a quorum was a direct and foreseeable result of Mr. Porter’s insistence on a one-sided solicitation and election; FIC had complied with its obligations under the Agreed Order and Mr. Porter has obtained all relief sought by his petition. FIC’s Motion for Summary Judgment remains pending and has not been heard.

Prior to a hearing on FIC’s Motion for Summary Judgment, Mr. Porter applied for a temporary restraining order and temporary injunction requiring the Company to convene one or more additional meetings of shareholders, contending that in the absence of a quorum on December 6, Texas law and the Company’s bylaws entitled a majority of the shareholders in attendance to choose a date to which the meeting would be adjourned. The District Court held a hearing on Porter’s application, and on December 22, 2006 entered an order requiring among other things that FIC hold an annual shareholders meeting for the election of directors on January 16, 2007, but stating that if a quorum was not present on that date, FIC would not be required to hold an annual meeting of shareholders at any time before July 17, 2007. The Company made arrangements for, and was prepared to hold, an annual meeting of shareholders on January 16, 2007, as required by the Court’s order, but the Company was again unable to hold the meeting on the appointed date because no quorum was present. The Company subsequently filed its 2006 Form 10-K on May 31, 2007 with the SEC and held an annual meeting of shareholders on June 29, 2007 as described in Part II, Item 4. No further action has been taken by Mr. Porter, whose suit remains pending.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, it is not currently possible to estimate the impact, if any, that the ultimate resolution of this legal proceeding will have on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Accordingly, no accrual for possible losses has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for this legal proceeding.

Litigation with Equita Financial and Insurance Services of Texas, Inc. and M&W Insurance Services, Inc.

On June 2, 2005, Equita and M&W Insurance Services, Inc. (“M&W”) filed a civil suit in Travis County, Texas District Court against the Company. The suit alleges that, in entering into certain agreements with the plaintiffs, the Company made certain misrepresentations and omissions as to its business and financial condition. The agreements referenced in the suit consist of (a) an option agreement entered into in June 2003 between Equita and the Company, granting Equita the right to purchase shares of FIC’s common stock at $16.42 per share, if certain sales goals were achieved under an exclusive marketing agreement between Equita and a subsidiary of the Company (the “Option Agreement”), (b) a stock purchase agreement entered into in June 2003 between M&W and the Roy F. and Joann Cole Mitte Foundation, pertaining to the purchase of 204,918 shares of FIC’s common stock (the Stock Purchase Agreement”), and (c) a registration rights agreement entered into in June 2003 among the plaintiffs and the Company, whereby the Company agreed to file and maintain a shelf registration statement with respect to the shares of FIC’s common stock purchased by M&W from the Mitte Foundation or which may be acquired in the future by Equita under the option agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement,” and, collectively, the “Agreements”).

The suit alleges that the Company breached the provisions of the Option Agreement by refusing to indemnify the plaintiffs for losses relating to the alleged breach of certain representations and warranties included in the Option Agreement. The plaintiffs also allege that the Company required M&W to purchase 204,918 shares of FIC common stock from the Mitte Foundation as a condition of Equita’s obtaining, in June 2003, an exclusive marketing agreement with a subsidiary of the Company pertaining to the distribution of insurance products in the “senior market” (the “Marketing Agreement”), and that such requirement was motivated by the desire of the Company’s management to obtain certain proxy rights obtained under a settlement agreement with the Mitte Foundation and the Mitte family. The plaintiffs further allege that the Company breached the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement by failing to file a shelf registration with the SEC with respect to the shares of FIC’s common stock purchased by M&W from the Mitte Foundation and the shares which may be acquired in the future by Equita under the provisions of the Option Agreement. The plaintiffs seek rescission of the Agreements; damages in an amount equal to the $3 million that M&W paid to acquire FIC shares from the Mitte Foundation, together with interest and attorney’s fees and unspecified expenses; and an unspecified amount of exemplary damages.

20


Late in 2005, the Company’s two life insurance subsidiaries, Investors Life and Family Life, intervened in the lawsuit to assert claims that Equita had breached its obligations under the Marketing Agreement with respect to the distribution of insurance products, thereby causing damages to the life insurance subsidiaries.  Equita moved to dismiss the intervention, but at a hearing on December 20, 2005, the court denied Equita’s motion.  As a result, Investors Life and Family Life will be permitted to assert their claims against Equita in this lawsuit.

Deposition discovery with respect to both the case filed by Equita and M&W, and the claims in intervention asserted by Family Life and Investors Life, began in October of 2006.

In response to a motion for partial summary judgment, the Company has stipulated to certain elements of some of the causes of action asserted by Equita and M&W, including that certain representations and warranties made in the Option Agreement were partially incorrect, and that FIC was unable to comply with certain of its obligations under the Option Agreement.  FIC did not stipulate, and continues to dispute, other elements of certain of the causes of action asserted by Equita and M&W, and disputes other causes of action in their entirety.

On or about May 8, 2007, Equita and M&W amended their petition, removing their claims under the Texas Securities Act and common-law fraud.  FIC intends to vigorously oppose the lawsuit and any effort by Equita and M&W to recover damages from FIC, and the life insurance subsidiary intends to vigorously prosecute its claims in intervention against Equita. Management has evaluated the above-described litigation and believes that the Company has properly accrued for any probable losses as of June 30, 2007.
 
The Manhattan Life Insurance Company and Family Life Insurance Company v. Family Life Corporation, Investors Life Insurance Company of North America and FIC Insurance Services, L.P.

On April 17, 2007, Manhattan Life and Family Life, filed a civil suit in the 215th Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas, against Family Life Corporation, Investors Life and FIC Insurance Services, L.P. (“FICIS”), each a subsidiary of the Company.  The suit alleges that: a) Family Life Corporation breached the Stock Purchase Agreement with Manhattan Life by competing with Family Life and accepting insurance “directly or indirectly” from active accounts of Family Life; b) FICIS breached the Administrative Services Agreement with Family Life by willfully communicating with or willfully assisting with the communication by its affiliates with policyholders in a manner intended to solicit Family Life accounts on behalf of Investors Life; c) FICIS breached fiduciary duties owed to Family Life in the administration and management of the accounts of the policy holders of Family Life by assisting in the conversion of Family Life policies to the policies of Investors Life, and by their actions, Investors Life and Family Life Corporation aided and abetted such breach of fiduciary duty; and, d) Family Life Corporation, Investors Life and FICIS have tortiously interfered with existing contracts of Family Life with its policyholders, including the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement. The Company intends to vigorously defend the suit, and has filed an answer denying the plaintiffs’ claims. In addition, FICIS has filed, and intends to vigorously prosecute, a counterclaim for amounts due and owing by Family Life for services performed pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement. See Note 3 regarding the sale of Family Life Insurance Company. Discovery began in June of 2007.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, it is not currently possible to estimate the impact, if any, that the ultimate resolution of this legal proceeding will have on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Accordingly, no accrual for possible losses has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for this legal proceeding.

Other Litigation

FIC and its insurance subsidiary are regularly involved in litigation, both as a defendant and as a plaintiff. The litigation naming the insurance subsidiary as defendant ordinarily involves our activities as a provider of insurance products. Management does not believe that any of this other litigation, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion addresses the financial condition of Financial Industries Corporation (“FIC”) as of June 30, 2007, compared with December 31, 2006, and its results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same periods last year. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in FIC’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, to which the reader is directed for additional information.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, FIC’s net income was $77,000 (basic and diluted income of $.01 per common share) compared to net income of $1,741,000 (basic and diluted income of $0.18 per common share) for the comparable 2006 period. However, in analyzing the Company’s results of operations, a separation of results between continuing and discontinued operations provides a more meaningful view.  As previously described in Note 3 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company sold Family Life on December 29, 2006, resulting in a loss from discontinued operations.  Included in net income for the second quarter of 2006 is income from discontinued operations, net of taxes, of $733,000.  Income from continuing operations totaled $77,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, while income from continuing operations totaled $1,008,000 for the comparable 2006 period.

The following sections of this Item 2 reflect Family Life as discontinued operations pursuant to SFAS 144 as previously described.  Accordingly, unless otherwise noted, amounts and analysis in this Item 2 reflect the continuing operations of FIC and its subsidiaries, exclusive of Family Life.  References to income and loss from operations are identified as continuing operations or discontinued operations, while references to net income or net loss reflect the consolidated net results of both continuing and discontinued operations.

In 2007, FIC’s net income was affected by the following significant items as compared to 2006 amounts:

 
·
Increase in premiums earned of $512,000 due primarily to increases in sales of final expense whole life insurance and mortgage protection term insurance products;
 
·
Increase in policyholder benefits and expenses of $645,000 primarily from increases in traditional policy reserve expenses resulting from the higher traditional premium production;
 
·
Decrease in earned insurance charges of $408,000 offset by a decrease in interest expense on contractholders deposit funds of $426,000, both due primarily to the general runoff of the Company’s universal life insurance and annuity business;
 
·
Increase in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs of $203,000, primarily due to increases in sales of final expense whole life insurance and mortgage protection term insurance products;
 
·
Increase in operating expenses of $875,000 primarily due to higher audit and other consulting fees, as well as for the recognition of additional compensation expense of $178,000 related to the vested portion of options as previously discussed in Note 7;
 
·
Decrease in income tax expense of $211,000.

Results of Operations – Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, FIC’s net income was $619,000 (basic and diluted earnings of $.06 per common share) on revenues of $39.1 million as compared to a net loss of $45,000 (basic and diluted loss of $.00 per common share) on revenues of $35.7 million in the first six months of 2006. Included in the net loss for the first six months of 2006 is income from discontinued operations, net of taxes, of $164,000. Income from continuing operations totaled $619,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, while loss from continuing operations totaled $209,000 for the comparable 2006 period.

In 2007, FIC’s net income was affected by the following:

 
·
Increase in premiums earned of $1.7 million due primarily to increases in sales of final expense whole life insurance and mortgage protection term insurance products;
 
·
Increase in net investment income of $1.5 million primarily due to dividend income received on investments in equity securities;

22


 
·
Increase in other revenues of $1.3 million due primarily to additional fees earned on separate accounts and fees earned for services performed under an administrative services agreement with Family Life;
 
·
Decrease in net realized investment gains of $399,000 primarily due to realized gains in 2006 from the sale of the Company’s remaining real estate properties classified as held for sale;
 
·
Increase in policyholder benefits and expenses of $772,000 primarily from increases in traditional policy reserve expenses resulting from the higher traditional premium production;
 
·
Decrease in earned insurance charges of $732,000 offset by a decrease in interest expense on contractholders deposit funds of $628,000, both due primarily to the general runoff of the Company’s universal life insurance and annuity business;
 
·
Increase in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs of $477,000, primarily due to increases in sales of final expense whole life insurance and mortgage protection term insurance products;
 
·
Increase in operating expenses of $1.8 million primarily due to higher audit, other consulting, and legal fees, as well as for the recognition of compensation expense of $272,000 related to the vested portion of options as previously discussed in Note 7.

The above described items need to be taken into consideration in drawing comparisons between the operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Revenues

Premium revenues reported for traditional life insurance products are recognized when due. Premium income for the first six months of 2007, net of reinsurance ceded, were $4.3 million, as compared to $2.6 million in the first six months of 2006. This source of revenues is related to the traditional life insurance book of business of FIC’s insurance subsidiary for both first year and renewal premiums. The increase in premiums is primarily due to increases in sales of final expense whole life insurance and mortgage protection term insurance products, along with decreases in reinsurance premium expenses.

In accordance with GAAP, deposits received in connection with annuity contracts and premiums received for universal life (“UL”) insurance policies are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements as increases in liabilities for contractholder deposit funds and not as revenues. Earned insurance charges assessed against these deposits are reported as revenue.  For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, annuity deposits and UL premiums totaled $11.8 million and $14.8 million, respectively.

The decline in UL premiums and annuity deposits reflects the net run-off of business from the Company’s existing book of business, and declining sales of new UL policies. Although the Company is focusing on reversing these trends on an overall basis, management has de-emphasized the sale of annuity and UL products since 2004 due primarily to the interest-rate environment and certain design features of FIC’s current annuity products. Most of the Company’s marketing efforts are now focused on the sale of traditional life insurance products, such as mortgage protection term insurance and final expense whole life insurance. Liabilities for contractholder funds have declined from $453.7 million at December 31, 2006 to $439.1 million at June 30, 2007.

Earned insurance charges totaled $15.2 million for the first six months of 2007, compared to $16.0 million for the same period of 2006.  These revenues primarily consist of UL cost of insurance charges, but also include policy surrender charges, and policy administration charges.  The decrease in earned insurance charges from 2006 to 2007 is primarily due to reduced UL cost of insurance charges resulting from the net run-off of business.

Net investment income for the first six months of 2007 was $16.0 million as compared to $14.6 million for the same period of 2006. The higher net investment income in 2007 versus 2006 was primarily attributable to an increase in dividend income earned on the Company’s investments in equity securities totaling $750,000.  Dividend income earned on the equity securities totaled $966,000 for the first six months of 2007 as compared to $216,000 for the comparable 2006 period.  The remaining increase in net investment income is primarily due to improved investment yields.

Net realized investment gains were $105,000 in the first six months of 2007, as compared to $504,000 of realized gains in the first six months of 2006.  The realized gains for 2007 were from the sale of two fixed maturity securities.  The realized gains for 2006 were from the sale of the Company’s remaining real estate properties classified as held for sale.

Other revenues totaled $3.4 million and $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Other income for 2006 includes $573,000 of interest income received in the second quarter of 2006 on federal income tax refunds related to prior year amended returns. The significant increase in other revenues in 2007 is partially due to fees earned related to the Company’s separate accounts.  As previously described in Note 8 of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, effective June 1, 2006, Investors Life recaptured the previously reinsured investment annuity business with Symetra Life resulting in the retention of 100% of this business.  The recapture of this previously reinsured separate accounts business increased other revenues in 2007 by approximately $840,000 as compared with the corresponding period of 2006.

23


Other revenues also increased in 2007 due to fees earned for services performed under an administrative services agreement with Family Life.  As previously described in Note 3 of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, Family Life entered into an administrative services agreement with the Company for a three month period following the sale of Family Life.  Pursuant to the agreement, the Company provided administrative services for Family Life through March 31, 2007, at which time Manhattan Life assumed all responsibilities for administering the Family Life business.  The Company earned fees totaling $807,000 in the first quarter of 2007 for services performed for Family Life in accordance with the agreement.

Benefits and Expenses

Policyholder benefits and expenses, which consist primarily of death benefit claims, were $15.7 million in the first six months of 2007, as compared to $14.9 million in the first six months of 2006. The higher policyholder benefits and expenses in 2007 versus 2006 was primarily attributable to the increase in traditional premium revenues for 2007 which  caused a corresponding increase in traditional policy reserve expenses.

Interest expense on contractholder deposit funds represents interest paid or credited to contractholders on cash values accumulated in their universal life insurance and annuity accounts. Interest expense totaled $8.4 million in the first six months of 2007, as compared to $9.0 million in the same period of the year 2006.  As discussed previously, the decline in UL premiums and annuity deposits reflects the net run-off of business from the Company’s existing book of business, and consequently the decrease in interest expense in 2007 is primarily attributable to this overall reduction in the level of contractholder deposit funds.

The level of market interest rates can effect the interest spread which is the difference in the Company’s investment portfolio rate and the interest rates credited on policyholder contracts for universal life insurance and annuities. The Company responded to lower market rates in 2004 and 2005 by lowering many of the credited rates on its policies in these periods. However, universal life insurance and annuity policies have contractual minimum guaranteed rates and credited rates cannot be lower than such minimums. Because many of the Company’s policies have minimum guaranteed rates of 4.0%, the market interest rate environment in prior periods put pressure on the Company’s interest spread. Market rate increases subsequent to 2005 have improved the Company’s interest spread.

Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC) for the first six months of 2007 was $934,000, as compared to $457,000 for the same period in 2006.  These expenses represent the amortization of the costs of producing new business, which consists primarily of agents’ commissions and certain policy issuance and underwriting costs.  For traditional life insurance business, DAC is amortized over the estimated premium-paying period of the policies in proportion to annual premium revenue. For interest sensitive products, these costs are amortized in relation to the estimated annual gross profits of the policies. The level of policy lapses and surrenders can also have a significant impact on the amount of amortization in any reporting period. The increase in amortization in 2007 from the comparable 2006 period is primarily due to the increased sales of traditional business by Investors Life since the third quarter of 2006 and the amortization relating to the DAC capitalized on these sales.

Present value of future profits of acquired business (PVFP) is amortized in a similar manner as DAC, as previously described, for acquired traditional and interest sensitive business. Amortization of PVFP totaled $508,000 and $539,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The amortization is consistent with the run-off of the acquired blocks of business.

Operating expenses for the first six months of 2007 were $11.9 million, as compared to $10.1 million in the first six months of 2006. The Company has implemented many cost reduction measures in 2004 and 2005, as well as 2006, and this continues to be a critical focus for the Company.  However, audit, actuarial, accounting and other consulting and legal expenses continued to represent a significant component of operating expenses as the Company completed its delinquent SEC filings with the filing of Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007.  These fees totaled $4.6 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. As the Company is now current with its SEC filing requirements, significant reductions are anticipated going forward in these audit, actuarial, accounting and consulting expenses. Additionally, as previously described in Note 7 – Stock-Based Compensation - the Company recognized compensation expense of $272,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 related to the vested portion of the options.

24


Interest expense was $725,000 and $678,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The interest expense relates to debt service on $15 million aggregate principal amount of floating rate Senior Notes due 2033 (the “Senior Notes”).  The Senior Notes bear interest quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 4.2%. The higher interest expense in 2007 is a direct result of the increase in the LIBOR rate. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 reflects an average annual interest rate of approximately 9.7% and 9.0%, respectively.

Taxes

The provision for income taxes of $266,000 on income from continuing operations reflects an effective tax rate of 30.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.  The provision for federal income taxes of $188,000 on loss from continuing operations reflects an effective tax rate of 895% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The primary reason for the deviation from the expected statutory tax rate of 34% for the Company is due to changes in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets generated by its non-life insurance entities. Deferred income tax assets are subject to ongoing evaluation of whether such assets will be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company's generation of sufficient taxable income in the future to recover tax benefits that cannot be recovered from taxes paid in prior periods. If future taxable income is not expected, the Company establishes a valuation allowance, when based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s deferred tax assets are primarily comprised of net operating losses of FIC and its non-life insurance subsidiaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity describes the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash flows to meet the cash requirements of business operations. FIC is an insurance holding company whose principal assets consist of its insurance subsidiary, Investors Life Insurance Company of North America (“Investors Life”). As a holding company, FIC’s ability to pay interest and principal on its debt, pay its expenses, and pay dividends on its common stock depend substantially upon its receipt of dividends or other cash flow from Investors Life.

Liquidity management is designed to ensure that adequate funds are available to meet all current and future financial obligations. The Company meets its liquidity requirements primarily by funding cash used in operations with cash flows provided by investing activities. Proper liquidity management is crucial to preserve stable, reliable, and cost-effective sources of cash to meet the future benefit payments under our various insurance and deposit contracts, pay operating expenses (including interest and income taxes), and maintain reserve requirements. In this process, we focus on our assets and liabilities, and the impact of changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates, market liquidity and other factors.  We believe we have the ability to generate adequate cash flows to fund obligations as they come due.

As of June 30, 2006, Investors Life held $15.4 million of notes receivable from FIC that represented the remaining indebtedness related to the Family Life acquisition.  Although this intercompany indebtedness was eliminated on FIC’s consolidated balance sheets, it created a debt service requirement at the holding company level. These notes were paid off by FIC on December 29, 2006 using proceeds from the sale of Family Life.

At the holding company level, FIC’s principal current ongoing liquidity demands relate to debt service on $15 million of senior notes that it issued in May 2003.  These notes require quarterly interest payments at a variable interest rate of the three-month LIBOR rate plus 4.2% (which yielded an average rate of approximately 9.7% for the first six months of  2007). The principal amount of the notes must be repaid in a single payment in 2033.

In addition to debt service, the holding company must pay its expenses in connection with Board of Directors fees, insurance costs, corporate overhead, certain audit and accounting fees, and legal and consulting expenses as incurred. The holding company has not paid any dividends to its shareholders since 2003, and management does not anticipate the payment of such dividends in the near future.

The ability of Investors Life to pay dividends to FIC and meet these holding-company liquidity demands is subject to restrictions set forth in the insurance laws and regulations of Texas, its domiciliary state. Texas limits how and when Investors Life can pay such dividends by (a) including the “greater of” standard for payment of dividends to shareholders and (b)requiring that prior notification of a proposed dividend be given to the Texas Department of Insurance. Under the “greater of” standard, an insurer may pay a dividend in an amount equal to the greater of: (i) 10% of the policyholder surplus or (ii) the insurer’s statutory net gain from operations for the previous year. Pursuant to statutory limitations, the maximum dividend payment which could be made in 2007, without prior approval by the Texas Department of Insurance, is $5,540,000. Investors Life did not make any dividend payments to its parent company in 2006, or for the period ended June 30, 2007.

25


In June 2004, FIC, with the approval of the Texas Department of Insurance, created FIC Insurance Services, L.P., a service company subsidiary, and transferred to it many of the administrative functions of the insurance companies. The new service company charges Investors Life a monthly service fee that is calculated using a formula based on policies under management, new policies issued, managed assets, and other factors. Profits earned by the service company are paid as dividends to the holding company, providing an additional source of liquidity at the holding company level. Profits earned by the service company are expected to decrease in 2007, as fees will decline due to the sale of Family Life on December 29, 2006.  This agreement with the service company was terminated by Family Life upon the sale of Family Life to The Manhattan Life Insurance Company.

Liquidity considerations at Investors Life are different in nature than for the holding company. Sources of cash for Investors Life consist of premium payments and deposits from policyholders and annuity holders, charges on policies and contracts, investment income, and proceeds from the sale of investment assets. These funds are applied primarily to provide for the payment of claims under insurance and annuity policies, payment of policy withdrawals, surrenders and loans, operating expenses, taxes, investments in portfolio securities, and shareholder dividends.

A primary liquidity consideration with respect to life insurance and annuity products is the risk of early policyholder and contractholder withdrawal. Deposit fund liabilities for universal life and annuity products as of June 30, 2007 were $439.1 million, compared to $453.7 million at December 31, 2006. Individual life insurance policies are less susceptible to withdrawal than are annuity contracts because life insurance policyholders may incur surrender charges and undergo a new underwriting process in order to obtain a new insurance policy. At June 30, 2007, the bulk of the liabilities for contractholder deposit funds on FIC’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, $308.0 million, represented insurance products, as compared to $131.1 million of annuity product liabilities.

Since Investors Life holds a portfolio of highly liquid publicly traded debt securities, raising cash through asset sales is available should other sources of liquidity fail to provide cash as needed. In this regard, however, Investors Life must be concerned about such sales at inopportune times, when adverse movements in interest rates may have depressed the market price of securities so that sales would result in the realization of significant losses. To guard against such an outcome, FIC’s management monitors benefits paid and surrenders of insurance products to provide projections of future cash requirements. Also as part of this monitoring process, FIC performs cash flow testing of assets and liabilities at each year-end to evaluate the match between the planned maturities of the insurance company assets and the likely liquidity needs of the companies over time. Such cash-flow testing, prescribed by insurance laws and regulations, models the likely performance of assets and liabilities over time, using a wide variety of future interest rate scenarios.

There can be no assurance that future experience regarding benefits and surrenders will be similar to the historic experience on which such cash-flow testing is based, since withdrawal and surrender levels are influenced by such factors as the interest-rate environment and general economic conditions as well as the claims-paying and financial strength ratings of Investors Life.

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2007 were approximately $25.3 million compared to $55.6 million at December 31, 2006. The $30.3 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2007 from December 31, 2006 was due primarily to cash flows used in financing activities, and to decreases in other liabilities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $13.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2007, compared to $19.1 million provided by operating activities for the same period of 2006. The predominant changes in net cash used in operating activities between 2007 and 2006 are due to payments of $15.2 million in the first quarter of 2007 for amounts due for unsettled transactions for purchased securities and decreases in other liabilities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $906,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2007, compared to net cash used in investing activities totaling $35.8 million for the same period of 2006. The significant decrease in cash used in investing activities was due primarily to higher levels of sales and maturities of fixed maturity securities in 2007 totaling $51.3 million versus $15.0 million for the comparable 2006 period.  Additionally, purchases of fixed maturity securities totaled $60.5 million in 2007 compared to $54.1 million in 2006.

Net cash used in financing activities was $16.4 million in the first six months of 2007, compared to $17.5 million in the first six months of 2006. The components of the Company’s financing activities are contractholder fund deposits and withdrawals for annuity and universal life insurance policies.  For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, contractholder fund withdrawals exceeded deposits resulting in the net cash used in financing activities. While contractholder fund deposits totaled $11.8 million, contractholder fund withdrawals were $28.2 million in the first six months of 2007. The reduced net withdrawals in 2007 compared to 2006 is due to a decline in deposits in 2007 from 2006 of $3.0 million, more than offset by a decrease in withdrawals of $4.0 million for the same period, due to a decrease in surrenders.

26


In light of the information and considerations outlined above, management believes at this time that the liquidity of FIC and its subsidiaries is sufficient to meet the needs of its business, including its debt service requirements.

Financial Condition

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the equity of the shareholders of the Company (that is, the excess of the Company’s assets over its liabilities) decreased by $4.8 million.  Changes resulting in the decrease to shareholders’ equity are detailed as follow:

 
·
Net income for the period of $619,000.

 
·
Reduction to beginning retained earnings of $1,186,000 for the implementation of FIN 48 related to income taxes as described in Note 1 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 
·
Increase of $272,000 in additional paid-in capital related to the issuance of stock options during the first six months of 2007 as described in Note 7 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 
·
Changes in accumulated other comprehensive income for items as detailed below:

 
o
Increase in net unrealized losses on fixed maturities available for sale of $4,591,000.

 
o
Decrease in appreciation of investments in equity securities of $314,000.

 
o
Decrease in pension liability of $72,000.

 
·
Increase in additional paid-in capital of $354,000 for common shares to be issued to Mr. Boisture, as described in Note 7 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Assets

The Company’s life insurance subsidiary has an investment management agreement with Conning Asset Management (“Conning”). Under this agreement, Conning manages the investment security portfolio of the Company’s life insurance subsidiary in accordance with investment policies set by the Company’s Board of Directors. The investment policies comply with legal requirements of state insurance laws and regulations that are applicable to the Company’s insurance company subsidiary. They also emphasize sensitivity to the way that FIC’s liabilities are likely to change over time and with changes in general interest rate levels. In practical terms, this means that the Company focuses almost all of its investment in investment-grade securities, keeping the schedule of anticipated asset maturities in line with its projected cash needs. It also means that the Company attempts to keep the duration of its investment assets (a measure of the sensitivity of their value to changes in interest rates) in line with the duration of the Company’s liabilities.

Over the past several years, the Company has decreased its investment in mortgage-backed securities (including asset-backed securities) significantly. This trend continued into 2006 and 2007. Expressed as a percentage of its total investment in fixed maturities, these ratios were 22.0% and 20.5% at December 31, 2006 and June 30, 2007 respectively.  Such securities are sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates, since interest rate levels affect the rate at which the underlying mortgage obligations are repaid.  FIC’s insurance subsidiary has reduced the risk of prepayment associated with mortgage-backed securities by investing in planned amortization class (“PAC”), target amortization class (“TAC”) instruments and scheduled bonds.  These investments are designed to amortize in a predictable manner by shifting the risk of prepayment of the underlying collateral to other investors in other tranches (“support classes”) of the collateralized mortgage obligation ("CMO").

The Company’s investment portfolio does not have significant exposure to the subprime mortgage market.  The portfolio holds $3.9 million par value of home-equity loan asset-backed securities.  The securities have Standard & Poor’s ratings of AAA, were purchased in early 2003, and are comprised of loans originated in 2002.  The performance of the underlying collateral, pools of fixed-rate mortgage loans, has been satisfactory and the loans have paid down to under 50% of original par value. As of June 30, 2007 the aggregate unrealized loss on these bonds is approximately $58,000, which management believes can be primarily attributed to increases in market interest rates.

27


During the first six months of 2007, net unrealized losses on fixed maturities available for sale increased $9.1 million, prior to the effects of DAC and deferred taxes.  The increase in unrealized losses was primarily related to increases in market interest rates.  The Company’s general investment philosophy is to hold fixed maturities for long-term investment.  Accordingly, the Company has the ability and intent to hold securities to maturity or until they recover in value.  The Company does not currently anticipate the need to sell securities in unrealized loss positions for liquidity purposes.

FIC’s equity securities consist primarily of its investment in the investment funds underlying the separate accounts business of Investors Life Insurance Company of North America (“Investors Life”). As of June 30, 2007, the market value of FIC’s equity securities was $10,295,000, compared to $9,805,000 at December 31, 2006. The Company also received dividend income totaling $966,000 in the first six months of 2007 related to these equity investments.

Agency advances and other receivables were $4.1 million and $929,000 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.  The increase was primarily related to the implementation of FIN 48 as described in Note 1 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.  Liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits, previously recorded as a reduction to current tax receivables, were reclassified and reported as other liabilities at March 31, 2007 in accordance with the new reporting requirements of FIN 48.

Investors Life had $353.9 million of separate account assets as of June 30, 2007 (not including the value of the Company’s own investment in one of the accounts), as compared to $351.0 million at the end of 2006. These assets include (a) two variable annuity separate accounts that permit contractholders to allocate their contract values among a selection of third-party mutual funds and (b) assets held in custodian accounts in connection with investment annuity contracts. Effective June 1, 2006, Investors Life recaptured the previously reinsured investment annuity business with Symetra Life resulting in the retention of 100% of this business. The Company expects the recapture of this previously reinsured business, which increased revenues in 2006, to continue to increase revenues in 2007. However, as this is a closed block of business, the revenues are expected to decrease as the policies in force decline. Investors Life is not marketing new separate account annuity contracts. Previously, the investment annuity business was reinsured with Symetra Life Insurance Company (formerly Safeco Life Insurance Company), a third-party reinsurer, on a 90%/10% coinsurance basis, with Investors Life retaining 10% of such business.

Liabilities

The Company’s insurance-related liabilities (future policy benefits and contractholder deposit funds) were $555.0 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $570.8 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease in these insurance-related liabilities reflects the business run-off as previously described.

Other liabilities, which totaled $23.3 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $34.0 million at December 31, 2006, consist primarily of accrued expenses, policyholder suspense liabilities, pension plan liabilities, amounts due on unsettled security transactions, and amounts held as agent or trustee. The decrease in other liabilities is partially due to amounts due for unsettled transactions for purchased securities. There were no amounts due for unsettled transactions at June 30, 2007, compared to a balance of $15.2 million at December 31, 2006.  This decrease from unsettled transactions was partially offset by the reporting of a liability for unrecognized tax benefits totaling $5.5 million resulting from the implementation of FIN 48 as disclosed in Note 1 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Capital Adequacy

Financial intermediaries such as FIC depend on their equity capital to absorb short-term fluctuations in asset and liability values in their financial structures. They also count on equity capital to support the growth of the business. One measure of the strength of a financial holding company such as FIC is the simple ratio of its shareholders’ equity to its total assets. For FIC this ratio was 5.5% at June 30, 2007, compared to 5.8% at December 31, 2006. The inclusion of separate account assets (which are not relevant for this purpose) reduced the ratio of shareholders’ equity to total assets by 3.0% at both June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Management believes that its current equity capital is sufficient to meet the Company’s current liabilities and to fund growth at currently planned levels.

Insurance companies are subject to regulation under state law. Among other requirements, these state laws and regulations impose capital adequacy requirements on insurance companies. Using a calculation that takes into account the quality, liquidity, maturities, and amounts of its assets and liabilities, each insurance company is required to calculate its “risk-based capital” (or “RBC”). Total adjusted capital must exceed 200% of the authorized control level RBC to avoid supervisory activity by the insurance regulators. As of December 31, 2006, the total adjusted capital of Investors Life was approximately 584% of its authorized control level risk-based capital.

28


State regulators also use NAIC IRIS ratios to monitor capital adequacy requirements.  The NAIC ratios cover 12 categories of financial data with defined “usual” ranges for each such category. The ratios are intended to provide insurance regulators with “early warnings” as to when a company might warrant special attention. An insurance company may fall outside of the usual range for one or more ratios, and such variances may result from specific transactions that are, by themselves, immaterial or eliminated at the consolidation level. In certain states, insurers with more than three IRIS ratios outside of the NAIC usual ranges may be subject to increased regulatory oversight. For 2006 Investors Life had four ratios which were outside the usual ranges, which were primarily related to investment income and changes in premium, product mix, and reserving. The ratios were outside the usual ranges primarily due to a recapture of ceded reinsurance by Family Life from Investors Life during 2006.  This recapture occurred prior to the sale of Family Life.  For statutory accounting purposes, the recapture affected premium income and change in policy reserves which caused ratios to fall outside the usual ranges.  Excluding the effects of the reinsurance recapture, Investors Life would have had only one ratio outside the usual ranges, which related to investment income.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

General

FIC’s principal assets are financial instruments, which are subject to market risks. Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates, principally interest yields on fixed rate investments. For a discussion of the Company’s investment portfolio and the management of that portfolio to reflect the nature of the underlying insurance obligations of the Company’s insurance subsidiary, please refer to the information set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

The following is a discussion of the Company’s primary market-risk-sensitive instruments. It should be noted that this discussion has been developed using estimates and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those described below. Further, the following discussion does not take into account actions that could be taken by management in response to the assumed changes in market rates. In addition, the discussion does not take into account other types of risks that may be involved in the business operations of the Company, such as the reinsurance recoveries on reinsurance treaties with third party insurers.

The primary market risk to the Company’s investment portfolio is interest rate risk.  The Company does not use derivative financial instruments.

Interest-Rate Risk

The Company manages the interest-rate risk inherent in its fixed maturity assets relative to the interest-rate risk inherent in its liabilities. Generally, we manage interest-rate risk based on the application of a commonly used model.  The model projects the impact of interest rate changes on a range of factors, including duration and potential prepayment.  For example, assuming an immediate increase of 100 basis points in interest rates, the net hypothetical loss in fair market value related to the financial instruments included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets is estimated to be $27.6 million at June 30, 2007 and $26.1 million at December 31, 2006. For purposes of the foregoing estimate, fixed maturity investments were taken into account. The fair value of such assets was $520.8 million at June 30, 2007 and $521.0 million at December 31, 2006.

The fixed income investments of the Company include certain mortgage-backed securities (excluding asset-backed securities). The market value of such securities was $98.7 million at June 30, 2007 and $106.3 million at December 31, 2006.  Assuming an immediate increase of 100 basis points in interest rates, the net hypothetical loss in the fair value related to such mortgage-backed securities is estimated to be $8.7 million at June 30, 2007 and $8.6 million at December 31, 2006.

Separate account assets have not been included, since gains and losses on those assets generally accrue to the policyholders.

The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely discussions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and are subject to certain limitations, including the exercise of judgment by individuals, the inability to identify unlikely future events, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors or fraud or ensure that all material information will be made known to management in a timely fashion.

Management has completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This evaluation has allowed management to make conclusions, as set forth below, regarding the state of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007.  Based on its evaluation and the identification of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, FIC's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2007, FIC's disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective.

Management has assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, the end of our most recent fiscal year. Management based its assessment on criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, in performing its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management determined that material weaknesses existed in the Company's internal controls relating to the following areas: control environment, control monitoring, financial close and reporting, reinsurance, policy holder benefits and accounts payable and expenditures.

During the first quarter of 2007, although there were no significant internal control changes implemented during that time, FIC implemented an Internal Controls Remediation Plan which is designed to resolve all previously identified material weaknesses by the end of the 2007 fiscal year.

In the second quarter of 2007, the Company improved its control monitoring abilities by hiring a Director of Internal Audit who began work on June 12, 2007.  The Company also made security changes in its general ledger system in order to properly segregate duties associated with accounts payable and vendor maintenance functions.  In addition, as part of the re-examination and re-engineering of the Financial Close and Reporting process, the Company began establishing a new closing schedule in order to ensure that all financial closing and reporting events occur in a manner that will lead to timely financial statement filings.  The closing schedule and related procedures will continue to be enhanced and developed at a more detail level throughout the remainder of 2007.

Part of the Company’s plan was to resolve a material weakness involving the accuracy of supplemental contract payments by the end of the second quarter of 2007.  As previously disclosed in the Company’s 2007 first quarter Form 10-Q, the Company changed the expected resolution date of this item to July 31, 2007.  Although the new controls have now been implemented, the related control deficiency will not be considered fully remediated until the new controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and tested to prove operational effectiveness.

For the third quarter of 2007, the Company plans to continue its work to remediate its material weaknesses.  Included in this effort is the continuation of work to re-examine and re-engineer the Financial Close and Reporting process.  The following additional items are scheduled to be completed by the end of the third quarter: establish a Company anti-fraud program, establish a formal internal controls education program, establish new disclosure policies and procedures, improve all internal controls documentation, establish controls to ensure accurate computation of reinsurance premiums, and implement controls to ensure that purchases are properly authorized and recorded.

For the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company intends to complete its work regarding the re-examination and re-engineering of the Financial Close and Reporting process.  In addition, all departments are expected to have current policies and procedures formally documented and a new release of the Company’s general ledger system is expected to be installed.

At this time, the Company does not anticipate any changes to the above remediation plans and expects to resolve all material weaknesses by the end of 2007.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

T. David Porter v. Financial Industries Corporation

On May 31, 2006, T. David Porter, an FIC shareholder, filed a civil suit in Travis County, Texas District Court (the “Court”), against the Company, seeking to compel the Company to hold an annual meeting of shareholders. FIC had not been able to solicit proxies for an annual meeting because it had not been able to comply with Rule 14a-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which requires that the Company provide an annual report containing current financial statements to shareholders in connection with an annual meeting.

Mr. Porter sued under Article 2.24(B) of the Texas Business Corporation Act, which provides that if an annual meeting of shareholders is not held within any 13-month period and a written consent of shareholders has not been executed instead of a meeting, any court of competent jurisdiction in the county in which the principal office of the corporation is located may, on the application of any shareholder, summarily order a meeting to be held. On August 7, 2006, the Company entered into an Agreed Order On Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel Annual Shareholders Meeting and agreed among other things to hold an annual shareholders meeting for the election of directors on December 6, 2006. The Company made arrangements for, and was prepared to hold, an annual meeting of shareholders on December 6, 2006, as required by the Agreed Order, but the Company was unable to hold the meeting on the appointed date because no quorum was present.

On December 12, 2006, FIC filed a Motion for Summary Judgment seeking dismissal of Porter’s suit on the grounds that the Agreed Order did not dispense with the requirement of a quorum; the lack of a quorum was a direct and foreseeable result of Mr. Porter’s insistence on a one-sided solicitation and election; FIC had complied with its obligations under the Agreed Order and Mr. Porter has obtained all relief sought by his petition. FIC’s Motion for Summary Judgment remains pending and has not been heard.

Prior to a hearing on FIC’s Motion for Summary Judgment, Mr. Porter applied for a temporary restraining order and temporary injunction requiring the Company to convene one or more additional meetings of shareholders, contending that in the absence of a quorum on December 6, Texas law and the Company’s bylaws entitled a majority of the shareholders in attendance to choose a date to which the meeting would be adjourned. The District Court held a hearing on Porter’s application, and on December 22, 2006 entered an order requiring among other things that FIC hold an annual shareholders meeting for the election of directors on January 16, 2007, but stating that if a quorum was not present on that date, FIC would not be required to hold an annual meeting of shareholders at any time before July 17, 2007. The Company made arrangements for, and was prepared to hold, an annual meeting of shareholders on January 16, 2007, as required by the Court’s order, but the Company was again unable to hold the meeting on the appointed date because no quorum was present. The Company subsequently filed its 2006 Form 10-K on May 31, 2007 with the SEC and held an annual meeting of shareholders on June 29, 2007 as described in Part II, Item 4. No further action has been taken by Mr. Porter, whose suit remains pending.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, it is not currently possible to estimate the impact, if any, that the ultimate resolution of this legal proceeding will have on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Accordingly, no accrual for possible losses has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for this legal proceeding.

Litigation with Equita Financial and Insurance Services of Texas, Inc. and M&W Insurance Services, Inc.

On June 2, 2005, Equita and M&W Insurance Services, Inc. (“M&W”) filed a civil suit in Travis County, Texas District Court against the Company. The suit alleges that, in entering into certain agreements with the plaintiffs, the Company made certain misrepresentations and omissions as to its business and financial condition. The agreements referenced in the suit consist of (a) an option agreement entered into in June 2003 between Equita and the Company, granting Equita the right to purchase shares of FIC’s common stock at $16.42 per share, if certain sales goals were achieved under an exclusive marketing agreement between Equita and a subsidiary of the Company (the “Option Agreement”), (b) a stock purchase agreement entered into in June 2003 between M&W and the Roy F. and Joann Cole Mitte Foundation, pertaining to the purchase of 204,918 shares of FIC’s common stock (the Stock Purchase Agreement”), and (c) a registration rights agreement entered into in June 2003 among the plaintiffs and the Company, whereby the Company agreed to file and maintain a shelf registration statement with respect to the shares of FIC’s common stock purchased by M&W from the Mitte Foundation or which may be acquired in the future by Equita under the option agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement,” and, collectively, the “Agreements”).

31


The suit alleges that the Company breached the provisions of the Option Agreement by refusing to indemnify the plaintiffs for losses relating to the alleged breach of certain representations and warranties included in the Option Agreement. The plaintiffs also allege that the Company required M&W to purchase 204,918 shares of FIC common stock from the Mitte Foundation as a condition of Equita’s obtaining, in June 2003, an exclusive marketing agreement with a subsidiary of the Company pertaining to the distribution of insurance products in the “senior market” (the “Marketing Agreement”), and that such requirement was motivated by the desire of the Company’s management to obtain certain proxy rights obtained under a settlement agreement with the Mitte Foundation and the Mitte family. The plaintiffs further allege that the Company breached the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement by failing to file a shelf registration with the SEC with respect to the shares of FIC’s common stock purchased by M&W from the Mitte Foundation and the shares which may be acquired in the future by Equita under the provisions of the Option Agreement. The plaintiffs seek rescission of the Agreements; damages in an amount equal to the $3 million that M&W paid to acquire FIC shares from the Mitte Foundation, together with interest and attorney’s fees and unspecified expenses; and an unspecified amount of exemplary damages.

Late in 2005, the Company’s two life insurance subsidiaries, Investors Life and Family Life, intervened in the lawsuit to assert claims that Equita had breached its obligations under the Marketing Agreement with respect to the distribution of insurance products, thereby causing damages to the life insurance subsidiaries.  Equita moved to dismiss the intervention, but at a hearing on December 20, 2005, the court denied Equita’s motion.  As a result, Investors Life and Family Life will be permitted to assert their claims against Equita in this lawsuit.

Deposition discovery with respect to both the case filed by Equita and M&W, and the claims in intervention asserted by Family Life and Investors Life, began in October of 2006.

In response to a motion for partial summary judgment, the Company has stipulated to certain elements of some of the causes of action asserted by Equita and M&W, including that certain representations and warranties made in the Option Agreement were partially incorrect, and that FIC was unable to comply with certain of its obligations under the Option Agreement.  FIC did not stipulate, and continues to dispute, other elements of certain of the causes of action asserted by Equita and M&W, and disputes other causes of action in their entirety.

On or about May 8, 2007, Equita and M&W amended their petition, removing their claims under the Texas Securities Act and common-law fraud.  FIC intends to vigorously oppose the lawsuit and any effort by Equita and M&W to recover damages from FIC, and the life insurance subsidiary intends to vigorously prosecute its claims in intervention against Equita.  Management has evaluated the above-described litigation and believes that the Company has properly accrued for any probable losses as of June 30, 2007.

The Manhattan Life Insurance Company and Family Life Insurance Company v. Family Life Corporation, Investors Life Insurance Company of North America and FIC Insurance Services, L.P.

On April 17, 2007, Manhattan Life and Family Life, filed a civil suit in the 215th Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas, against Family Life Corporation, Investors Life and FIC Insurance Services, L.P. (“FICIS”), each a subsidiary of the Company.  The suit alleges that: a) Family Life Corporation breached the Stock Purchase Agreement with Manhattan Life by competing with Family Life and accepting insurance “directly or indirectly” from active accounts of Family Life; b) FICIS breached the Administrative Services Agreement with Family Life by willfully communicating with or willfully assisting with the communication by its affiliates with policyholders in a manner intended to solicit Family Life accounts on behalf of Investors Life; c) FICIS breached fiduciary duties owed to Family Life in the administration and management of the accounts of the policy holders of Family Life by assisting in the conversion of Family Life policies to the policies of Investors Life, and by their actions, Investors Life and Family Life Corporation aided and abetted such breach of fiduciary duty; and, d) Family Life Corporation, Investors Life and FICIS have tortiously interfered with existing contracts of Family Life with its policyholders, including the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Administrative Services Agreement. The Company intends to vigorously defend the suit, and has filed an answer denying the plaintiffs’ claims. In addition, FICIS has filed, and intends to vigorously prosecute, a counterclaim for amounts due and owing by Family Life for services performed pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement. Discovery began in June of 2007.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, it is not currently possible to estimate the impact, if any, that the ultimate resolution of this legal proceeding will have on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Accordingly, no accrual for possible losses has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for this legal proceeding.

Other Litigation

FIC and its insurance subsidiary are regularly involved in litigation, both as a defendant and as a plaintiff. The litigation naming the insurance subsidiary as defendant ordinarily involves our activities as a provider of insurance products. Management does not believe that any of this other litigation, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
