EX-99.1

Exhibit 99.1

Glossary of Selected Terms

The following measures are used by the Company’s management to evaluate performance against historical results and establish targets on a consolidated basis. A number of these measures are components of net income or the balance sheet but, in some cases, may be considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable SEC rules because they are not displayed as separate line items in the Consolidated Statement of Operations or Consolidated Balance Sheets, and in some cases, require inclusion or exclusion of certain items not ordinarily included or excluded in a GAAP financial measure. In the opinion of the Company’s management, a discussion of these measures is meaningful to provide investors with an understanding of the significant factors that comprise the Company’s periodic results of operations and financial condition.

Agent - A licensed representative of an insurer in marketing insurance products.

• Career agents - Agents under contract with the Company to market only the Company’s products and limited additional third-party vendor products authorized by the Company.

• Experienced agents - Career Agents with more than two years of experience with the Company. Their compensation is comprised of commissions and incentives.

• Financed agents - Career Agents in their first two years of employment with the Company. Their compensation is comprised of a base salary (subsidy) and commissions, with the base salary (subsidy) component declining as the agent gains more experience. Financed Agents are also eligible for incentives.

• Licensed producers - Staff of Career Agents who are licensed to write insurance business.

• Independent agents - Agents who are under contract with the Company to market the Company’s annuity products but who are not restricted to writing only the Company’s products and products authorized by the Company.

Book value per share excluding the fair value adjustment for investments - The result of dividing total shareholders’ equity excluding after tax net unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturities and equity securities, including the related effect on certain deferred policy acquisition costs and value of acquired insurance in force, by ending shares outstanding. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

1

Catastrophe costs - The sum of catastrophe losses and property and casualty catastrophe reinsurance reinstatement premiums.

Catastrophe losses - In categorizing property and casualty claims as being from a catastrophe, the Company utilizes the designations of the Property Claims Service, a subsidiary of Insurance Services Office, Inc., and additionally beginning in 2007, includes losses from all such events that meet the definition of covered loss in the Company’s primary catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance contract, and reports loss and loss adjustment expense amounts net of reinsurance recoverables. A catastrophe is a severe loss resulting from natural and man-made events within a particular territory, including risks such as fire, earthquake, windstorm, explosion, terrorism and other similar events, that causes $25 million or more in insured property and casualty losses for the industry and affects a significant number of property and casualty insurers and policyholders. Each catastrophe has unique characteristics. Catastrophes are not predictable as to timing or amount in advance, and therefore their effects are not included in earnings or claim and claim adjustment expense reserves prior to occurrence. In the opinion of the Company’s management, a discussion of the impact of catastrophes is meaningful for investors to understand the variability in periodic earnings.

Net income before realized investment gains and losses - Net income adjusted to exclude after tax realized investment gains and losses. Net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. A projection of net income, including after tax realized investment gains and losses, is not accessible on a forward-looking basis because management believes that it is not possible to provide a reliable forecast of realized investment gains and losses, which can vary substantially from one period to another and may have a significant impact on net income.

Net Reserves - Property and casualty unpaid claim and claim expense reserves net of anticipated reinsurance recoverables.

Prior Years’ Reserve Development - A measure which the Company reports for its property and casualty segment which identifies the increase or decrease in net incurred claim and claim adjustment expense reserves at successive valuation dates for claims which occurred in previous calendar years. In the opinion of the Company’s management, a discussion of prior years’ loss reserve development is useful to investors as it allows them to assess the impact on current period earnings of incurred claims experience from the current calendar year and previous calendar years.

2

Property and casualty operating statistics - Operating measures utilized by the Company and the insurance industry regarding the relative profitability of property and casualty underwriting results.

• Loss Ratio or Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense Ratio - The ratio of (1) the sum of net incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses to (2) net earned premiums.

• Expense Ratio - The ratio of (1) the sum of operating expenses and the amortization of policy acquisition costs to (2) net earned premiums.

• Combined Ratio - The sum of the Loss Ratio and the Expense Ratio. A Combined Ratio less than 100% generally indicates profitable underwriting prior to the consideration of investment income.

• Combined Ratio Excluding Catastrophes and Prior Years’ Reserve Development - The sum of the Loss Ratio and the Expense Ratio adjusted to remove the effect of catastrophe costs and prior years’ reserve development. The Combined Ratio is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Return on equity - The ratio of (1) trailing 12-month net income to (2) the average of ending shareholders’ equity for the current quarter end and the preceding four quarter ends.

Sales or Annualized New Sales - Sales represent the amount of new business sold during the period and exclude renewal of policies sold in previous periods. Sales are measured by the Company as premiums and deposits to be collected over the 12 months following the sale of a new policy, and this time period may extend into the following calendar year. Sales should not be viewed as a substitute for any financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP, including “sales” as it relates to non-insurance companies, and the Company’s definition of sales might differ from that used by other companies. The Company utilizes sales information as a performance measure that indicates the productivity of Career Agents and Independent Agents. Sales are also a leading indicator of future revenue trends.

HORACE MANN REPORTS RESULTS

FOR FIRST QUARTER

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., April 30, 2008 — Horace Mann Educators Corporation (NYSE:HMN) today reported net income of $14.3 million (34 cents per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $23.3 million (52 cents per share) for the same period in 2007. Included in net income were net realized losses on securities of $2.4 million ($1.6 million after tax, or 4 cents per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and net realized investment gains of $3.5 million ($2.3 million after tax, or 5 cents per share) for the first quarter of 2007. All per-share amounts are stated on a diluted basis.

“Horace Mann’s first quarter results reflected the strong headwinds felt throughout the industry, including a relatively high level of catastrophe losses, the continued impact of a challenging financial market environment, and the adverse effect of a slowing economy on both home and auto sales,” said Louis G. Lower II, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In terms of baseline earnings, our property and casualty segment’s current quarter combined ratio excluding catastrophes and prior years’ reserve development of approximately 91 percent was slightly better than the prior year, while annuity segment earnings excluding the impact of the valuation of deferred policy acquisition costs also exceeded last year’s first quarter. The decline in life segment earnings was a result of adverse mortality experience compared to prior year.”

In the first quarter of 2008, the company completed its $50 million share repurchase authorization announced in September 2007 and its Board of Directors authorized an additional $25 million share repurchase program. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the company repurchased a total of 1,636,376 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $29.5 million, or an average cost of $18.01 per share. As of March 31, 2008, $24.8 million remained authorized for future share repurchases. Total shares outstanding on March 31, 2008 and 2007 were 40,623,637 and 43,143,356, respectively.

Segment Earnings

Net income for the property and casualty segment of $13.0 million for the quarter decreased $3.8 million compared to the same period in 2007. The first quarter 2008 property and casualty combined ratio was 93.5 percent, including 4.1 percentage points due to catastrophe costs, compared to 89.5 percent, including 1.8 percentage points due to catastrophe costs, in the prior year period. Pretax catastrophe costs in the current quarter were $5.4 million compared to $2.5 million incurred in the first quarter of 2007. Favorable prior years’ reserve development totaling $2.7 million was recorded in the current quarter, which represented 2.0 percentage points on the combined ratio, compared to $5.5 million, or 4.2 percentage points on the combined ratio, recorded in the first quarter of 2007.

Annuity segment net income of $3.0 million for the quarter decreased $0.4 million compared to the first quarter of 2007. Compared to the prior year, current period improvements in the interest margin were more than offset by the adverse impact of the financial market on the valuation of deferred policy acquisition costs and the level of contract charges earned. Life segment net income of $2.6 million for the current quarter decreased $1.0 million compared to the same period a year earlier, reflecting higher mortality costs which more than offset growth in investment income.

Segment Revenues

The company’s total premiums written and contract deposits declined 2 percent compared to the first quarter of 2007, largely due to decreases in annuity rollover deposit receipts in 2008. Property and casualty premiums written increased 1 percent compared to prior year, reflecting lower catastrophe reinsurance premiums and an increase in average property premium per policy.

Annuity new contract deposits decreased 9 percent compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007. Scheduled, flexible-premium annuity deposit receipts were comparable to the first quarter of 2007, while rollover deposits declined. For the three months, variable annuity deposits decreased 2 percent and deposits to fixed accounts decreased 15 percent compared to the same period in 2007. Life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits increased 2 percent compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Sales and Distribution

Total new auto sales units were 12 percent lower in the first quarter than the prior year, while the number of career agents declined 9 percent to 758 agents at March 31, 2008 compared to 12 months earlier. The company’s total points of distribution, including 284 licensed producers, increased 5 percent compared to March 31, 2007. “In spite of a difficult economic and competitive environment, we continue to be

very positive about the progress we are making in transitioning to our new Agency Business Model. While it’s still very early in the migration process, the approximately 200 agents who have completed Horace Mann’s agency business school have outperformed our other agents in the key productivity measures,” said Lower. “As anticipated, our decline in agent count reflects the loss of generally lower-producing agents and a reduction in new agent hires as we transition our hiring standards to target only those individuals we believe will be successful in the new Agency Business Model,” Lower noted.

Annuity new business decreased 16 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to the same period a year earlier, due to a decline in rollover deposits. “While IRS transition regulations for the 403(b) annuity marketplace reduced new rollover deposits, we are pleased to see new business growth in our core scheduled deposit business,” said Lower.

Realized Investment Gains and Losses

In 2008, pretax net realized investment losses were $2.4 million for the first quarter, including $2.7 million of impairment write downs and $3.9 million of realized impairment losses on securities that were disposed of during the quarter. “While we realized a modest level of investment losses in the quarter, our conservative investment portfolio continues to serve us well in the current financial market environment,” said Lower.
