ACQUISITION OR DISPOSAL OF ASSETS On March 20, 2000, Fidelity National Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Fidelity"), completed its acquisition of Chicago Title Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Chicago Title") pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 1, 1999 and amended as of October 13, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement"), between Fidelity and Chicago Title. As provided in the Merger Agreement, which was approved by the stockholders of Fidelity and Chicago Title at special meetings of stockholders held on February 9, 2000 and February 11, 2000, respectively, Chicago Title merged with and into Fidelity, with Fidelity as the surviving corporation in the merger (the "Merger"). As a result of and at the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of Chicago Title was converted into the right to receive merger consideration having a value of approximately $49.29, consisting of cash or shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, of Fidelity. Holders of shares of Chicago Title had the right, on or prior to 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on March 20, 2000, the date on which the effective time of the Merger occurred, to elect to receive their merger consideration in the form of cash, or in the form of shares of Fidelity common stock, or a combination of cash and Fidelity shares. Pursuant to an Exchange Agent Agreement between Fidelity and Harris Trust Company of New York, as exchange agent, Fidelity deposited cash in the aggregate amount of $570,250,486 and an aggregate of 38,761,680 shares of Fidelity common stock, for distribution to the former holders of common stock of Chicago Title common stock on the basis of their respective elections and subject to the proration provisions of the Merger Agreement. On Monday, March 27, 2000, Fidelity announced allocation information resulting from the Exchange Agent's compilation of elections received from Chicago Title stockholders. According to the Exchange Agent, the holders of 6,992,831 Chicago Title shares elected to receive cash in the Merger, and the holders of 14,324,315 Chicago Title shares elected to receive shares of Fidelity common stock in the Merger. Accordingly, pursuant to the allocation and proration provisions of the Merger Agreement, each former Chicago Title stockholder who elected to receive cash in the Merger is entitled to receive cash in the amount of $49.2879 for each share with respect to which a cash election, or no election, was made and each former Chicago Title stockholder who elected to receive shares of Fidelity common stock in the Merger is entitled to receive 2.7060 shares of Fidelity common stock and cash in the amount of $13.6304 for each share with respect to which a stock election is made, together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Fidelity common stock otherwise issuable in respect thereof, at the rate of $13.1771 per Fidelity share. The cash portion of the merger consideration was provided by borrowings made under Fidelity's new senior credit facility. On the closing date, Fidelity incurred borrowings of $715 million, of which approximately $570 million was deposited with the Exchange Agent to pay the cash portion of the merger consideration to former stockholders of Chicago Title, and $145 million was used to refinance certain existing indebtedness of Fidelity, FNF Capital, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fidelity, and Chicago Title and to pay transaction expenses. The borrowings include $450 million aggregate principal amount of term loans, $100 million aggregate principal amount of short-term revolving loans, and $165 million aggregate principal amount of revolving loans. The Merger has been treated as a reorganization pursuant to Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and has been accounted for under the "purchase method" of accounting. The closing sale price of the Fidelity common stock on the closing date, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange, was $18.00. 2 3 ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

All adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the Company's Report on Form 8-K/A, Amendment No. 1, dated March 20, 2000. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1999 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to classifications used in 2000. Note B - Chicago Title Corporation Merger On August 1, 1999, the Company announced that it had signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement") to purchase Chicago Title Corporation ("Chicago Title"), headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, for approximately $1.13 billion, or $52.00 per share of Chicago Title common stock, using approximately equal amounts of cash and Company common stock, subject to certain adjustments based on the average price of Company common stock, as defined in the Merger Agreement. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the allocation between cash and stock would be adjusted so Chicago Title stockholders would receive more than 50% of the outstanding stock of the combined company. Additionally, the price would be payable in shares of Company common stock or, upon election by Chicago Title stockholders, in cash, subject to proration necessary to achieve the allocation between cash and stock described above. The Merger Agreement, which was amended on October 13, 1999, was approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies and was approved by the stockholders of both the Company and Chicago Title in February 2000. Following the receipt of requisite regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary conditions, including amendments to the Company's Bylaws, Charter and Certificate of Incorporation, the transaction closed on March 20, 2000 ("Merger"). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Chicago Title stockholders received an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.1 billion. The purchase price was paid in the form of 1.7673 shares of Company common stock and $26.00 in cash for each share of Chicago Title Corporation common stock, resulting in the issuance of approximately 38.8 million shares of Company common stock at an average price during the applicable trading period of $13.1771 per share and the payment of approximately $570.2 million in cash. The Merger has been accounted for as a purchase. The Company has recorded certain preliminary purchase accounting adjustments, which are based on estimates utilizing available information. Such purchase accounting adjustments may be refined as additional information becomes available. Cost in excess of net assets acquired which has been recorded as a result of the Merger will be amortized on a straight-line basis over twenty years.

In connection with the Merger, the Company has entered into an $800 million syndicated credit agreement ("Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides for three distinct credit facilities: a $100 million, 18-month revolving credit facility, a $250 million 6-year revolving credit facility and a $450 million term loan facility with a 6-year amortization period. The Credit Agreement is unsecured at a variable interest rate based on the debt ratings assigned to the Company by independent agencies. The initial interest rate is LIBOR plus 1.50%. Proceeds from the Credit Agreement are available and have been used to finance the cash portion of the merger consideration, to refinance certain previously existing indebtedness, to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the merger and to fund other general corporate purposes of the combined company.

All previously reported segment information has been restated to be consistent with the current presentation. The Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2000 and 1999 and for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, include three reportable segments. Reportable segments are determined based on the organizational structure and types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its revenue. As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2000 (dollars in thousands):

9 10 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) The activities of the reportable segments include the following: Title Insurance This segment, consisting of title insurance underwriters and wholly-owned title insurance agencies, provides core title insurance and escrow services, including document preparation, collection and trust activities and certain real estate information services. This segment coordinates its activities with those of the real estate information services segment described below in order to offer the full range of real estate products and services required to execute and close a real estate transaction. Real Estate Information Services This segment, consisting of various real estate information and ancillary service subsidiaries, offers the complementary specialized products and services required to execute and close a real estate transaction that are not offered by the title insurance segment described above. These services include document recording services on a nationwide basis, tax qualifying property exchange services, property appraisal services, tax monitoring services, home warranty insurance, credit reporting, real estate referral services, flood monitoring, and foreclosure publishing and posting. These services require specialized expertise and have been centralized for efficiency and management purposes. Corporate The corporate segment includes the operations of the parent holding company. These operations consist of certain investment activities, including Micro General Corporation and FNF Capital, Inc., and the issuance and repayment of corporate debt obligations. Expenditures for long-lived assets relate primarily to the title insurance segment. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those used in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Intersegment sales or transfers which occurred in the ordinary course of consolidated operations, other than transactions between the Company (primarily the Title Insurance segment) and Micro General, have been eliminated from the segment information provided. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Factors That May Affect Operating Results The statements contained in this report on Form 10-Q that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements regarding the Company's expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. It is important to note that the Company's actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. The reader should consult the risk factors listed from time to time in the Company's reports on Forms 10-Q, 10-K and filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Results of Operations The Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2000 include the balance sheet accounts of the former Chicago Title Corporation as of March 31, 2000 and the results of operations for the 11-day period subsequent to March 20, 2000, the merger date, through March 31, 2000. As a result, quarter over quarter comparisons may not be meaningful. 10 11 Economic conditions, including volatility in mortgage interest rates, have shifted the mix of the Company's core title and escrow business from a refinance driven market in the first quarter of 1999 to a more traditional resale and new home sale market. The Company has also experienced a return to seasonality in the market. The decrease in real estate activity and order count has been partially offset by an increase in average fee per file. The increase in fee per file is consistent with a return to more normalized levels of refinance activity as well as an increase in commercial business. The following table presents information regarding the components of title premiums (dollars in thousands):
Three months ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------- 2000 % of Total 1999 % of Total -------- ---------- -------- ---------- Title premiums from direct operations $102,466 39.3% $107,959 44.6% Title premiums from agency operations 157,934 60.7% 133,915 55.4% -------- ----- -------- ----- Total title premiums ....... $260,400 100.0% $241,874 100.0% ======== ===== ======== =====
The trend in the mix of business between direct and agency operations reflects the impact of the lag of approximately three to six months in agent activity compared to the immediate recognition of title insurance premiums generated by direct operations. Fluctuations in title premiums by region and the overall difference in the mix of business that has occurred following the acquisition of Chicago Title has also impacted the allocation between direct and agency operations. The trend in escrow fees quarter over quarter is generally consistent with the trend in direct title premiums, after adjusting for the change in the mix of business in 2000 compared to 1999. Escrow fees for the first quarter of 2000 were $32.3 million compared to $32.8 million in the 1999 quarter. Other fees and income represents the revenue generated by the Company's real estate related ancillary service businesses, the revenue of Micro General Corporation, our majority-owned information technology and telecommunication services subsidiary, and the revenue generated by FNF Capital, Inc., our equipment leasing subsidiary. Other fees and income for the first quarter of 2000 trended consistently with current market conditions. Interest and investment income was $14.7 million in the first quarter of 2000 compared to $5.9 million in the first quarter of 1999. The increase in interest and investment income earned during the 2000 period is primarily due to an increase in invested assets and net realized gains in 2000 compared to net realized losses for the same period in 1999. Net realized gains on the sale of assets were $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2000 compared to net realized losses of $669,000 in the corresponding 1999 period. The Company's operating expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, other operating expenses and agent commissions, which are incurred as orders are received and processed. Title insurance premiums, escrow fees and other fees and revenue are generally recognized as income at the time the underlying transaction closes. Certain other fees and revenue are recognized over the period the related services are provided. As a result, revenue lags approximately 60-90 days behind expenses and therefore gross margins may fluctuate. The changes in the market environment, mix of business between direct and agency operations and the contributions from our various business units have impacted margins and net earnings. The Company has implemented programs and taken necessary actions to maintain expense levels consistent with revenue; however, a short time lag does exist in reducing variable costs and certain fixed costs are incurred regardless of revenue levels. The Company recorded certain one-time charges totaling $13.4 million, after applicable income taxes. These charges were primarily related to the revaluation of non-title assets, including the Company's investment in Express Network, Inc. and certain existing goodwill and obsolete software. 11 12 Personnel costs include base salaries, commissions and bonuses paid to employees, and are one of the most significant operating expenses incurred by the Company. These costs generally fluctuate with the level of orders opened and closed and with the mix of revenue. Personnel costs totaled $110.7 million and $108.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company has taken significant measures to maintain appropriate personnel levels and costs relative to the volume and mix of business while maintaining customer service standards and quality controls. These fluctuations reflect a continuing emphasis on expense control and an increase in productivity resulting from the Company's automation and electronic commerce initiatives. The Company continues to monitor the prevailing market conditions and will adjust personnel costs in accordance with activity. Other operating expenses consist of facilities expenses, title plant maintenance, premium taxes (which insurance underwriters are required to pay on title premiums and title related revenue in lieu of franchise and other state taxes), postage and courier services, computer services, professional services, advertising expenses, general insurance, depreciation and trade and notes receivable allowances. The Company continues to be committed to cost control measures. In response to market conditions, the Company implemented aggressive cost control programs in order to maintain operating expenses at levels consistent with the levels of revenue; however, certain fixed costs are incurred regardless of revenue levels, resulting in year over year percentage fluctuations. The Company's cost control programs are designed to evaluate expenses, both current and budgeted, relative to existing and projected market conditions. Items considered include, but are not limited to, capital expenditures, service contracts, facility requirements (e.g., renewal/ termination of leases and relocation of offices), expected fluctuations in the number of personnel, the impact of technology and profitability. Additionally, the Company has centralized its purchasing function in order to obtain the most favorable prices/rates available for vendor provided products and services, which also facilitates a highly structured requisition/approval process and cost analysis program. Total other operating expenses totaled $110.6 million and $76.3 million in the 2000 and 1999 quarters, respectively. The increase in amortization is due to the additional amortization in the first quarter of 2000 related to the addition of Chicago Title. Agent commissions represent the portion of policy premiums retained by agents pursuant to the terms of their respective agency contracts. Agent commissions were 79.7% of agent policy premiums in the first quarter of 2000 compared to 79.9% of agent policy premiums in the first quarter of 1999. Agent commissions and the resulting percentage of agency premiums retained by the Company vary according to regional differences in real estate closing practices and state regulations. The provision for claim losses includes an estimate of anticipated title claims and major claims. The estimate of anticipated title claims is accrued as a percentage of title premium revenue based on the Company's historical loss experience and other relevant factors. The Company monitors its claims experience on a continual basis and adjusts the provision for claim losses accordingly. Based on Company loss development studies, the Company believes that as a result of its underwriting and claims handling practices, as well as the refinancing business of prior years, the Company will maintain the trend of favorable claim loss experience. Based on this information, in the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company recorded a provision for claim losses of 6.0% and 6.5% of title insurance premiums, respectively, net of recoupments and prior to the impact of premium rates and Company loss experience in the state of Texas. Premiums in Texas are all-inclusive and include a closing fee in addition to a risk-related premium, which differs from similar coverage in other states, while loss experience is comparable. As a result, the provision for claim losses in Texas is much lower than in states that do not have all-inclusive premiums. These factors resulted in a net provision for claim losses of 5.6% and 6.3% in the first quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Interest expense is incurred by the Company in financing its capital asset purchases, lease originations and certain acquisitions. Interest expense consists of interest related to the Company's outstanding debt and in 1999 also includes the amortization of original issue discount and debt issuance costs related to the Liquid Yield Option Notes, which were converted or redeemed in February 1999. Interest expense of "non-LYONs" debt totaled $6.6 million and $2.4 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The LYONs related component of interest expense amounted to $445,000 for the first quarter of 1999. The increase in interest expense is attributable to the increase in outstanding notes payable, primarily related to the Chicago Title merger financing, and an increase in certain indices, on which the Company's variable interest rates are based. 12 13 Income tax expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, as a percentage of earnings before income taxes was 75.6% and 41.0%, respectively. The fluctuation in income tax expense as a percentage of earnings before income taxes is attributable to the Company's estimate of ultimate income tax liability, the impact of the non-recurring charges and the characteristics of net income, i.e., operating income versus investment income. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's cash requirements include debt service, operating expenses, lease fundings, lease securitizations, taxes and dividends on its common stock. The Company believes that all anticipated cash requirements for current operations will be met from internally generated funds, through cash received from subsidiaries, cash generated by investment securities and bank borrowings through existing credit facilities. The short- and long-term liquidity requirements of the Company, Insurance Subsidiaries, underwritten title companies ("UTCs"), ancillary service companies, Micro General and FNF Capital are monitored regularly to match cash inflows with cash requirements. The Company and its subsidiaries forecast their daily cash needs and periodically review their short- and long-term projected sources and uses of funds, as well as the asset, liability, investment and cash flow assumptions underlying these projections. Two of the significant sources of the Company's funds are dividends and distributions from its subsidiaries. As a holding company, the Company receives cash from its subsidiaries in the form of dividends and as reimbursement for operating and other administrative expenses it incurs. The reimbursements are executed within the guidelines of various management agreements among the Company and its subsidiaries. The Insurance Subsidiaries are restricted by state regulations in their ability to pay dividends and make distributions. Each state of domicile regulates the extent to which the Company's title underwriters can pay dividends or make other distributions to the Company. The Company's UTCs, ancillary service companies, Micro General and FNF Capital collect revenue and pay operating expenses; however, they are not regulated to the same extent as the Insurance Subsidiaries. Positive cash flow from the UTCs, ancillary service companies, Micro General and FNF Capital is invested primarily in cash and cash equivalents. Fluctuations in operating cash flows are primarily the result of increases or decreases in revenue. See "Overview." Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk The Company does not believe there have been any material changes in the market risks since December 31, 1999, which would impact the fair value of certain assets and liabilities included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Year 2000 Issues Information technology is an integral part of the Company's business. The Company also recognizes the critical nature of and the technological challenges associated with the Year 2000 issue. The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue results from computer programs and computer hardware that utilize only two digits to identify a year in the date field, rather than four digits. If such programs or hardware are not modified or upgraded information systems could fail, lock up, or in general fail to perform according to normal expectations. The Company has implemented a program and committed both personnel and other resources to determine the extent of Y2K issues. The scope of the Y2K program included a review of the systems used in our title plants, title policy processing, escrow production, claims processing, real estate related services, financial management, human resources, payroll and infrastructure. In addition to a review of internal systems, the Company has formally communicated with third parties with which it does business in order to determine whether or not they are Y2K compliant and the extent to which the Company may be vulnerable to third parties' failure to become Y2K compliant. The Company continues the process of identifying Y2K compliance issues in its systems, equipment and processes. The Company will make any necessary changes to such systems, updating or replacing such systems and equipment, and modifying such processes to make them Y2K compliant. 13 14 The Company developed a four-phase program to become Y2K compliant. Phase I is "Plan Preparation and Identification of the Problem." This is a continuing phase. Phase II is "Plan Execution and Remediation." Phase III is "Testing." Phase IV is "Maintaining Y2K Compliance." The status of the Y2K compliance program is monitored by senior management of the Company and by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The costs of the Y2K related efforts incurred to date have not been material, and the estimate of remaining costs to be incurred is not considered to be material. These estimates may be subject to change due to the complexities of estimating the cost of modifying applications to become Y2K compliant and the difficulties in assessing third parties', including various local governments upon which the Company relies upon to provide title related data, ability to become Y2K compliant. The Company has not experienced any Y2K compliance related issues to date. Management of the Company believes that its electronic data processing and information systems are Y2K compliant; however, there can be no assurance all of the Company's systems are Y2K compliant, or the costs to be Y2K compliant will not exceed management's current expectations, or that the failure of such systems to be Y2K compliant will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. The Company believes that functions currently performed with the assistance of electronic data processing equipment could be performed manually or outsourced if certain systems are determined not to be Y2K compliant. The Company has substantially completed a contingency plan in the event that any systems are not Y2K compliant. This entire section "Year 2000 Issues" is hereby designated a "Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure", as defined in the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act. 14 15 Part II: OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings The Company has been named as a defendant in four class action lawsuits alleging irregularities and violations of title and escrow practices. One of these suits was filed by the Attorney General of the State of California on behalf of the California Controller and the California Department of Insurance against the entire title and escrow industry in California. The other three were filed by private law firms in Federal Court in San Francisco and the State Court in Los Angeles. As a result of extensive meetings and discussions between the Company and the Attorney General of the State of California, the Attorney General has issued a letter stating that it does not expect to serve Fidelity National Financial, Inc. with a formal complaint. The Attorney General and the Company have previously expressed with confidence that the issues regarding the Company are likely to be resolved without litigation. The California Department of Insurance ("Department") and the Company reached a settlement of their lawsuit in February 2000. The settlement does not call for any fine or penalty to be paid by the Company. The Company anticipates that the resolution of the action filed by the Department will serve as a basis for the resolution of the other lawsuits filed. The Company does not believe that such resolution will have a material impact on its financial position or on its results of operations. Item 4. Submission of Matter to Vote of Securities Holders On February 9, 2000, the Company held a special meeting of stockholders pursuant to a Notice of Meeting and Proxy Statement dated December 29, 1999. At the meeting, stockholders approved and adopted the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 1, 1999, by and between Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and Chicago Title Corporation and amended as of October 13, 1999, including the issuance of shares of Fidelity National Financial, Inc. common stock in the merger of Chicago Title Corporation with and into Fidelity National Financial, Inc.
