  • Excludes the portion of other-than-temporary impairments recorded in “Other comprehensive income (loss),” representing any difference between the fair value of the impaired debt security and the net present value of its projected future cash flows at the time of impairment.

 

As discussed in Note 2, a portion of certain other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) losses on fixed maturity securities are recognized in OCI. For these securities, the net amount recognized in earnings (“credit loss impairments”) represents the difference between the amortized cost of the security and the net present value of its projected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit in the debt security prior to impairment. Any remaining difference between the fair value and amortized cost is recognized in OCI. The following table sets forth the amount of pre-tax credit loss impairments on fixed maturity securities held by the Company as of the dates indicated, for which a portion of the OTTI loss was recognized in OCI, and the corresponding changes in such amounts.

  • Agricultural loans represent $0.4 million of the ending allowance for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

 

The following tables set forth the allowance for credit losses and the recorded investment in commercial and agricultural mortgage loans as of the dates indicated:

 

     June 30, 2013 December 31, 2012
     Total Loans
  (in thousands)
Allowance for Credit Losses:      
Ending balance: individually evaluated for impairment (1) $ 3,554 $ 372

Total ending balance, gross of reserves $ 1,517,465 $ 1,470,005

  • There were no agricultural or uncollateralized loans individually evaluated for impairments at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
  • Agricultural loans collectively evaluated for impairment had a recorded investment of $112 million and $117 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively and a related allowance of $0.4 million for both periods. Uncollateralized loans collectively evaluated for impairment had a recorded investment of $5 million and $0 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively and no related allowance for both periods.
  • Recorded investment reflects the balance sheet carrying value gross of related allowance.

 

Impaired loans include those loans for which it is probable that all amounts due will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired commercial mortgage and other loans identified in management's specific review of probable loan losses and the related allowance for losses, as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, had a recorded investment and unpaid principal balance of $13.9 million and $6.4 million and related allowance of $3.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, primarily related to the hospitality, retail and other property types. At both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company held no impaired agricultural or uncollateralized loans. Net investment income recognized on these loans totaled $0.1 million for the period ending June 30, 2013, and $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Impaired commercial mortgage and other loans with no allowance for losses are loans in which the fair value of the collateral or the net present value of the loans' expected future cash flows equals or exceeds the recorded investment. As of both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company held no such loans. See Note 2 for information regarding the Company's accounting policies for non-performing loans.

 

As described in Note 2 loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratios are measures commonly used to assess the quality of commercial mortgage and other loans. As of both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 96% of the $1.5 billion recorded investment had a loan-to-value ratio of less than 80%. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 94% and 96%, respectively, of the recorded investment had a debt service coverage ratio of 1.0X or greater. As of June 30, 2013, approximately $90 million or 6% of the recorded investment had a loan-to-value ratio greater than 100% or debt service coverage ratio less than 1.0X reflecting loans where the mortgage amount exceeds the collateral value or where current debt payments are greater than income from property operations; none of which related to agricultural or uncollateralized loans. As of December 31, 2012, approximately $59 million or 4% of the recorded investment had a loan-to-value ratio greater than 100% or debt service coverage ratio less than 1.0X; none of which related to agricultural or uncollateralized loans.

 

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, all commercial mortgage and other loans were in current status, with the exception of $6.4 million at both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, that were classified as past due, primarily related to other property types. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $13.9 million and $6.4 million, respectively, of commercial mortgage and other loans, were in non-accrual status based upon the recorded investment gross of allowance for credit losses, primarily related to hospitality, retail and other property types. Nonaccrual loans are those on which the accrual of interest has been suspended after the loans become 90 days delinquent as to principal or interest payments, or earlier when the Company has doubts about collectability and loans for which a loan specific reserve has been established. See Note 2 for further discussion regarding nonaccrual status loans. The Company defines current in its aging of past due commercial mortgage and agricultural loans as less than 30 days past due.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no commercial mortgage and other loans sold or acquired.

 

Commercial mortgage and other loans are occasionally restructured in a troubled debt restructuring. These restructurings generally include one or more of the following: full or partial payoffs outside of the original contract terms: changes to interest rates; extensions of maturity; or additions or modifications to covenants. Additionally, the Company may accept assets in full or partial satisfaction of the debt as part of a troubled debt restructuring. When restructurings occur, they are evaluated individually to determine whether the restructuring or modification constitutes a “troubled debt restructuring” as defined by authoritative accounting guidance. The Company has no outstanding investment related to commercial mortgage and other loans that have been restructured in a troubled debt restructuring.

The Company's commercial mortgage and other loans may occasionally be involved in a troubled debt restructuring. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the additional funds the Company has committed to provide to borrowers involved in a troubled debt restructuring is not material. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, there were no new troubled debt restructurings related to commercial mortgage loans, and no payment defaults on commercial mortgage and other loans that were modified as a troubled debt restructuring within the 12 months preceding each respective period.

The gross unrealized losses, related to fixed maturities at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are composed of $131 million and $9 million, respectively, related to high or highest quality securities based on National Association of Insurance Commissioners, or “NAIC”, or equivalent rating and $6 million and $6 million, respectively, related to other than high or highest quality securities based on NAIC or equivalent rating. At June 30, 2013, $1 million of the gross unrealized losses represented declines in value of greater than 20%, none of which had been in that position for less than six months, as compared to $6 million at December 31, 2012 that represented declines in value of greater than 20%, $0 million of which had been in that position for less than six months. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $5 million and $7 million respectively, of gross unrealized losses of twelve months or more were concentrated in asset-backed securities and corporate securities. In accordance with its policy described in Note 2, the Company concluded that an adjustment to earnings for other-than-temporary impairments for these securities was not warranted at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. These conclusions are based on a detailed analysis of the underlying credit and cash flows on each security. The gross unrealized losses are primarily attributable to credit spread widening and increased liquidity discounts. At June 30, 2013, the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before the anticipated recovery of its remaining amortized cost basis.

At both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, less than $1 million of the gross unrealized losses related to equity securities, represented declines in value of greater than 20%, none of which have been in that position for less than six months. In accordance with its policy described in Note 2, the Company concluded that an adjustment for other-than-temporary impairments for these equity securities was not warranted at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012.
