National Western Life Announces Revised First Quarter 2006 Earnings
Austin, Texas, May 17, 2006 - National Western Life Insurance Company (NASDAQ: NWLIA) announced revised consolidated net earnings of $14.0 million, or $3.84 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The Company's book value per share at March 31, 2006 was changed to $242.82. The revised figures were a result of an additional charge of $8.1 million, or $2.23 per diluted share, associated with the Company's stock option plan that were not included in the Company's previously announced earnings on May 5, 2006.
During the first quarter of 2006, companies reporting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles were required to implement a new accounting pronouncement with respect to share based plans such as the Company's stock option plan. The earnings reported in the Company's May 5, 2006 press release reflected implementation of the new accounting pronouncement that management believed best addressed the facts and circumstances pertaining to its stock option plan.
In an extension filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 11, 2006, the Company reported that its independent auditor, KPMG LLP, had informed Company management on May 10th that, in their opinion, the Company needed to implement an alternative method of accounting for its stock option costs under the new accounting pronouncement. The affect of implementing this alternative method versus the method the Company used in reporting earnings in its May 5, 2006 press release was an acceleration of expense recognition associated with its stock option plan. In the extension filing, the Company indicated an additional five days were required to file its first quarter financial results with the SEC in order to perform the necessary calculations and revise its financial statements.
The Company filed its first quarter report reflecting the alternate method of accounting for its stock options and the resultant additional charge with the SEC on May 15, 2006. The Company's reported assets and total stockholders' equity as of March 31, 2006 were $6.4 billion and $876 million, respectively.
