MBIA INSURANCE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of MBIA Insurance Corporation and its Subsidiaries (MBIA Corp.). These statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with MBIA Corp.’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have not been audited by independent auditors in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, but in the opinion of management such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of MBIA Corp.’s financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. The December 31, 2003 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

2. Dividends Declared

 

Dividends declared and paid by MBIA Corp. during the three months ended March 31, 2004 were $90.0 million.

 

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF Issue No. 03-01, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments” (EITF 03-01). EITF 03-01 requires MBIA Corp. to disclose certain information about unrealized holding losses on its investment portfolio that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. These requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2003, and require MBIA Corp. to make disclosures in its annual financial statements about investments in debt or marketable equity securities with market values below carrying values.

 

In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

MBIA INSURANCE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)

 

SFAS 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS 133. SFAS 149 amends SFAS 133 for decisions made as part of the Derivatives Implementation Group process that effectively required amendments to SFAS 133, decisions made in connection with other FASB projects dealing with financial instruments and in connection with implementation issues raised in relation to the application of the definition of a derivative. SFAS 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. MBIA Corp.’s financial position and results of operations did not change as a result of the adoption of SFAS 149.

 

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 46, as revised December 2003, as an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. (ARB) 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements.” FIN 46 addresses consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs) by business enterprises. An entity is considered a VIE subject to consolidation if the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or if the equity investors lack one of three characteristics of a controlling financial interest. First, the equity investors lack the ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting rights or similar rights. Second, they do not bear the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity if they occur. Lastly, they do not claim the right to receive expected returns of the entity if they occur, which is the compensation for the risk of absorbing the expected losses. MBIA Corp. determined that FIN 46 applies to entities which it sponsors and, in certain cases, unaffiliated entities that it guarantees. As such, MBIA Corp. has consolidated certain VIEs within its financial statements.

 

4. Goodwill

 

As of January 1, 2003 and 2004, MBIA Corp. goodwill totaled $76.9 million. SFAS 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” requires annual testing of goodwill using a two-step approach to determine the amount of any impairment of a company’s existing goodwill. Step one entails evaluating whether the fair value of a reporting segment exceeds its carrying value. In performing this evaluation it was determined that the best measure of the fair value of MBIA Corp. was its book value

(Continued)

 

adjusted for the after-tax effects of deferred premium revenue, prepaid reinsurance premiums, deferred acquisition costs and the present value of installment premiums to arrive at adjusted book value. As of January 1, 2003 and 2004, MBIA Corp.’s adjusted book value significantly exceeded its carry value, and thus there was no impairment of its existing goodwill.

 

5. Recent Litigation

 

In July 2002, MBIA Corp. filed suit against Royal Indemnity Company (Royal), in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, to enforce insurance policies that Royal issued on certain vocational student loan transactions that MBIA Corp. insured. To date, claims in the amount of approximately $343 million have been made under the Royal policies with respect to loans that have defaulted. MBIA Corp. expects that there will be additional claims made under the policies with respect to student loans that may default in the future. Royal has filed an action seeking a declaration that it is not obligated to pay on its policies. If Royal does not honor its policies, MBIA Corp. will be required to make payment on the notes it insured, and will incur material losses under its policies. In October 2003, the court granted MBIA Corp.’s motion for summary judgment and ordered Royal to pay all claims under its policies. While Royal has appealed the order, MBIA Corp. expects that the order will be upheld on appeal. As part of the appeals process, Royal has pledged $370 million of investment grade collateral to MBIA Corp. to secure the entire amount of the judgment, with interest, and has agreed to post additional security for future claims and interest. The Federal District Court has ordered Royal to comply with the pledge agreement.

 

MBIA Corp. believes that it will prevail in the litigation with Royal and will have no ultimate loss on these policies, although there can be no assurance that MBIA Corp. will in fact prevail. If MBIA Corp. does not prevail in the litigation and Royal does not make payments on the Royal policies, MBIA Corp. expects to incur material losses under its policies. MBIA Corp. does not believe, however, that any such losses will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition.

 

The trustee in bankruptcy for Student Finance Corporation (SFC), the entity that originated the vocational student loans, has filed claims against the MBIA Corp. insured trusts formed by SFC affiliates to securitize the student loans asserting that approximately $45 million in funds transferred by SFC to the insured trusts were fraudulent transfers that should be returned to SFC’s bankruptcy estate. MBIA Corp., along with others, has been named as a party in the lawsuit. In the event that the court orders that these funds are to be paid to SFC’s bankruptcy estate, MBIA Corp. may be required to make payments to SFC’s bankruptcy estate or there may be a shortfall in the amount available to the insured securitization trusts to make payments on the MBIA Corp. insured notes, and MBIA Corp. may consequently incur an unreimbursed loss under its policies, although such losses will not be material.
