HORACE MANN REPORTS RESULTS

FOR SECOND QUARTER

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., July 30, 2009 — Horace Mann Educators Corporation (NYSE:HMN) today reported net income of $18.6 million (46 cents per share) and $32.0 million (79 cents per share) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, compared to $4.5 million (11 cents per share) and $18.8 million (45 cents per share) for the same periods in 2008. Included in net income were net realized gains on securities of $11.0 million ($7.2 million after tax, or 18 cents per share) and $10.2 million ($6.6 million after tax, or 16 cents per share) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. In the same periods in 2008, net income included net realized investment losses of $8.1 million ($5.1 million after tax, or 12 cents per share) and $10.5 million ($6.7 million after tax, or 16 cents per share), respectively. All per-share amounts are stated on a diluted basis.

“As the financial markets have begun to stabilize and improve, our confidence in the quality of our investment portfolio has been substantiated. Spread narrowing in the credit markets has significantly improved our unrealized loss position, with reported book value per share increasing 26 percent sequentially to $14.34. Meanwhile, book value per share excluding FAS 115 is now slightly higher than a year ago — just prior to the meltdown of the financial markets. Key balance sheet ratios, including risk based capital, remain consistent with our ratings, which have now been reaffirmed by all three primary rating agencies,” said Louis G. Lower, President and Chief Executive Officer. “That financial stability, combined with Horace Mann’s established position in our educator niche market, contributed to another very strong quarter in annuity sales, which increased 50 percent compared to a year ago. While the recession’s impact on new car sales continued to pressure applications for true new auto units, we’re beginning to close the gap to prior year and would expect continued improvement, as our growth in total points of distribution and recent growth in agent count build on the momentum we’ve established to transform our distribution system to a new, more powerful model. Finally, while catastrophes and non-catastrophe weather impacted our property results, the underlying profitability in all of our segments remained solid and generally consistent with expectations.”

“Net income before realized investment gains and losses was 28 cents per share for the second quarter,” continued Lower. “For the current accident year and excluding catastrophes, our property and casualty combined ratio of approximately 94 percent in the quarter was about 2 percentage points higher than the prior year period, largely reflecting the increase in non-catastrophe weather-related losses. In addition, combined annuity and life segment pretax earnings increased approximately 10 percent in the second quarter, compared to prior year, due to the positive impact of market performance on the valuations of deferred policy acquisition costs and the guaranteed minimum death benefit reserve.”

Segment Earnings

The property and casualty segment recorded net income of $3.6 million for the quarter, an increase of $1.7 million compared to the same period in 2008. Pretax catastrophe costs in the current quarter were $15.1 million compared to $22.4 million incurred in the second quarter of 2008. The second quarter 2009 property and casualty combined ratio was 103.8 percent, including 11.1 percentage points due to catastrophe costs, compared to 106.7 percent, including 16.6 percentage points due to catastrophe costs, in the prior year period. Favorable prior years’ reserve development totaling $2.1 million was recorded in the second quarter, which represented 1.5 percentage points on the combined ratio, compared to $2.4 million, or 1.8 percentage points on the combined ratio, recorded in the second quarter of 2008.

Annuity segment net income was $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, reflecting an increase of $1.2 million compared to the same period in 2008. In the second quarter, the positive market performance had a favorable impact on both the valuation of annuity deferred policy acquisition costs and the level of guaranteed minimum death benefit reserves. In contrast, however, financial market performance over the past 12 months adversely affected the level of charges and fees earned on variable contract deposits in the quarter compared to prior year, which offset the higher interest margin earned on fixed annuity assets in the current period. Total annuity net fund flows continued to be positive in the quarter, as they were throughout 2008, and total cash value persistency of nearly 94 percent increased about 2 percentage points compared to a year earlier.”

Life segment net income of $5.0 million for the second quarter decreased $0.2 million compared to the same period in 2008, as an increase in mortality costs offset the growth in investment income. Life persistency remained in excess of 94 percent.

Segment Revenues

The company’s total premiums written and contract deposits increased 8 percent and 3 percent compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, primarily reflecting increases in annuity deposit receipts in the current periods.

Total property and casualty premiums written increased 2 percent compared to both the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, primarily reflecting increases in average property and auto premiums per policy.

Annuity new contract deposits received increased 22 percent and 8 percent compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits decreased 2 percent compared to the prior year three and six months.

Sales and Distribution

For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, total new auto sales units were 5 percent lower in the current periods than in the prior year. “In spite of the adverse prior year comparisons in total units, average agent true new auto productivity increased in the current periods,” said Lower. Flexible premium annuity sales increased 32 percent in the quarter and 68 percent for the six months compared to the respective prior year periods. Coupled with year-to-date growth of 44 percent in single premium rollover deposits, including both Horace Mann and partner company products, total annuity sales increased 50 percent compared to the first six months of 2008. “Horace Mann has approved annuity payroll reduction capabilities in approximately one-third of the 15,500 public school districts in the United States. This access will continue to benefit the Company’s marketing opportunities,” said Lower.

While the 684 Horace Mann agents at June 30, 2009 reflected a 5 percent decrease compared to a year earlier, the number of agents increased again in the current quarter, resulting in a 2 percent increase in agent count since year-end 2008. Including 474 licensed producers who work for the agents, Horace Mann’s total points of distribution increased to 1,158, a growth of 11 percent over a year earlier. “We are encouraged by the increase in the number of agents in the first half of the year. Based on current trends, we anticipate showing year-over-year agent growth by the end of next quarter. That expectation, coupled with the positive impact that our new Agency Business Model is having on productivity and the recent enhancements made to our field sales management structure, bodes well for Horace Mann’s future growth prospects,” said Lower.

Investment Gains and Losses

In the second quarter of 2009, pretax net realized investment gains were $11.0 million, which included $3.8 million of credit-related impairment write-downs, primarily associated with a single collateralized debt obligation security, and $4.1 million of realized impairment losses on securities that were disposed of during the quarter, primarily financial institution and telecommunications sector securities. The impairment amounts were largely offset by $6.1 million of realized gains on previously impaired securities that were disposed of during the quarter, primarily financial sector securities. In addition, the second quarter reflected approximately $13 million of realized gains on other security sales.

Horace Mann’s net unrealized investment losses on fixed maturity and equity securities of $171.3 million at June 30, 2009 improved significantly compared to the $359.6 million and $327.2 million levels recorded at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. “Credit spreads improved across virtually all asset classes in the second quarter, with our investment grade corporate bond portfolio experiencing the most significant reduction in net unrealized losses. Some of the more highly stressed asset classes also showed improvement, including our financial institution bond and preferred stock holdings and our CMBS portfolio,” said Lower. “In light of this widespread improvement in the credit markets, coupled with our insignificant exposure to sub-prime, Alt-A and other lower-quality structured securities, we remain very comfortable with the underlying credit quality of our investment portfolio and have a high level of confidence that any future investment losses relating to the current economic environment will be very manageable.”
