4 5 The Progressive Corporation and Subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) NOTE 1 SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION. The Company paid Federal income taxes of $59.3 million and $71.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Total interest paid was $33.5 million and $22.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. NOTE 2 In the second quarter, the Company settled the dispute arising out of its 1985 acquisition of American Star Insurance Company over the seller's refusal to pay certain losses on pre-sale business written by American Star. NOTE 3 During the third quarter 1993, investment income was reduced $4.6 million as required under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 91. NOTE 4 On September 30, 1994, the Company paid a quarterly dividend of $.055 per Common Share and a regular quarterly dividend of approximately $.59 per share on the 9 3/8% Serial Preferred Shares, Series A, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 9, 1994. Both dividends were declared by the Board of Directors on August 5, 1994. On October 21, 1994, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $.055 per Common Share and a regular quarterly dividend of approximately $.59 per share on the 9 3/8% Serial Preferred Shares, Series A. Both are payable December 31, 1994, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 9, 1994. NOTE 5 Certain amounts in the financial statements for 1993 were reclassified to conform with the presentation used for 1994. These reclassifications had no effect on net income. NOTE 6 The financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which were, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 5 6 ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the third quarter 1994, operating income, which excludes net realized gains on security sales, was $57.4 million, or $.75 per share, compared to $54.7 million, or $.71 per share, last year. The combined ratio was 91.2, compared to 87.5 for the third quarter 1994. For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, operating income was $161.9 million, or $2.10 per share, compared to $148.0 million, or $1.98 per share, in 1993. The year-to-date combined ratio was 90.9 compared to 88.8 last year. Net premiums written increased 33% over the third quarter 1993 and 34% year-to-date reflecting unit growth in the core automobile insurance business. This growth resulted from the Company's rates becoming more competitive due to cost control efforts. Premiums earned, which are a function of the amount of premiums written in the current and prior periods, increased 33% for the quarter and 31% for the first nine months. Service revenue decreased 8% to $10.0 million for the quarter and 10% to $30.0 million for the first nine months, primarily reflecting the decrease in the size of the CAIP market. Claim costs, which represent actual and estimated future payments to or for our policyholders, as well as loss estimates for future assignments and assessments under state-mandated assigned risk programs, increased as a percentage of premiums earned to 67% for the quarter, compared to 61% in 1993, and 66% for the first nine months, compared to 61% last year. During the year, the Company has continued to keep rates flat despite rising loss costs. Policy acquisition costs and other underwriting expenses as a percentage of premiums earned decreased to 24% for the third quarter and 25% for the first nine months, compared to 27% for both periods in 1993. Service expenses decreased 26% for the quarter and 17% for the first nine months, primarily reflecting decreased service revenues. Recurring investment income (interest and dividends) increased 32% for the quarter and 18% for the first nine months, reflecting an increase in the average investment portfolio, partially offset by a mix shift to tax-free securities. During the third quarter 1993, interest income was reduced $4.6 million as required under Statement of Accounting Standards No. 91. The Company had net realized gains on security sales of $11.4 million and $17.7 million for the quarter and first nine months, respectively, compared to $42.2 million and $98.2 million in 1993. A significant portion of the 1993 realized gains resulted from the sale of certain equity securities held in the Company's investment portfolio. On September 30, 1994, the Company's portfolio had $3.5 million in total unrealized gains, compared to $70.2 million at December 31, 1993, primarily reflecting the general decline in the financial markets. The provision for Federal income taxes was $25.0 million, compared to $34.2 million for the quarter and $61.8 million, compared to $87.3 million for the first nine months, reflecting less realized gains in the current year. The Company continues to invest in fixed maturity, short-term and equity securities. The majority of the portfolio ($2,504.2 million, or 78.3%, at September 30, 1994 and $2,296.3 million, or 80.0%, at September 30, 1993) was in short-term and intermediate-term, investment-grade fixed-income securities. 6 7 As of September 30, 1994 and 1993, the equity portfolio of the Company was $458.6 million, or 14.3%, and $351.8 million, or 12.2%, respectively, of the total investment portfolio. The marketable equity portfolio consists of standard adjustable rate preferreds ($12.2 million in 1994 and $99.9 million in 1993), perpetual preferreds with mechanisms that may provide an opportunity to liquidate at par ($338.9 million in 1994 and $180.7 million in 1993), and common stocks ($107.5 million in 1994 and $71.2 million in 1993). The Company had forward and future positions offset by short forward, future or interest rate swap positions and unmatched positions, with a net market value of $4.6 million and $3.7 million as of September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The weighted average fully taxable equivalent book yield of the portfolio was 6.6% and 6.9% at September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. FINANCIAL CONDITION Progressive's insurance operations create liquidity by collecting and investing premiums written from new and renewal business in advance of paying claims. For the nine months ended September 30, 1994, operations generated a positive cash flow of $393.3 million. During the first nine months, 917,000 Common Shares were repurchased at an average cost of $31.01 per share and 40,000 9 3/8% Serial Preferred Shares, Series A, were repurchased at an average cost of $27.05 per share. No shares were purchased during the third quarter 1994. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K. (a) Exhibits: See exhibit index on page 9.
