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, there is 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.

 

   

Exclusive Agency - A local Horace Mann agency created and owned by an independent contractor who has signed an Exclusive Agent agreement with the Company (an “Exclusive Agent”). That agreement states that only the Company’s products and limited additional third-party vendor products authorized by the Company will be marketed by the agency. An independent contractor may sign multiple Exclusive Agent agreements with the Company and manage more than one Exclusive Agency.

   

Employee Agents - Agents who have employee status with the Company and by contract market only the Company’s products and limited additional third-party vendor products authorized by the Company.

   

Independent Agents - Non-exclusive independent contractors 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. Management believes it is useful to consider the trend in book value per share excluding unrealized net investment gains and losses in conjunction with book value per share to identify and analyze the change in net worth. Management also believes the non-GAAP measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and are generally driven by economic developments, primarily financial market conditions, the magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by the Company’s underlying insurance operations.

 

-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 lnsurance 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 hurricane, 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 of loss in advance. 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.

Insurance premiums written and contract deposits - Premiums written represent (1) the amount charged for policies issued during a fiscal period for property and casualty business, such amounts may be earned and included in financial results over future fiscal periods, and (2) the amount charged for policies in force during a fiscal period for traditional life and group life business. Amounts are reported net of reinsurance, unless otherwise specified. Contract deposits include amounts received from customers on deposit-type contracts, such as annuities and interest-sensitive life policy accounts, including deposit amounts and any related contract or policy fees. Management utilizes this non-GAAP measure, which is based on statutory accounting principles, in analyzing and evaluating the business growth of its operating segments. lnsurance premiums and contract charges earned is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

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

Operating income or 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. Management believes the measure provides investors with a valuable measure of the Company’s ongoing performance because it reveals trends in the business that may be obscured by the net effect of realized investment gains and losses. Realized investment gains and losses may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments that are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Operating income is used by management along with other components of net income to assess their performance and adjusted measures of operating income and operating income per diluted share are used in incentive compensation programs. Management believes that a projection of net income including after tax realized investment gains and losses is not appropriate on a forward-looking basis because it is not possible to provide a valid 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.

 

-2-


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.

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 or Underlying Combined Ratio - 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. Management believes this ratio provides a valuable measure of the Company’s underlying underwriting performance that may be obscured by the effects of catastrophe costs and prior years’ reserve development, the amounts of which may be significant and may vary significantly between periods.

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 for annuity and life contracts, and this time period may extend into the following calendar year. Sales data pertains to Horace Mann products and excludes authorized products sold by Employee Agents, Exclusive Agents, and their licensed staff which are underwritten by third-party vendors. 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 its agency force. Sales are also a leading indicator of future revenue trends.

“Horace Mann’s first quarter operating income was $0.55 per share -- consistent with our expectations, and a solid start for the year,” said Horace Mann’s President and CEO Peter H. Heckman. “In property and casualty, while the combined ratio was higher compared to first quarter 2012, both written and earned premiums increased, retention ratios improved, catastrophe losses were modest and prior years’ reserves continued to develop favorably. In our annuity business, assets under management were up 9% over prior year, more than offsetting the impact of modest spread compression, and earnings benefited from another quarter of positive deferred policy acquisition cost unlocking. And, in our life segment, first quarter sales of Horace Mann products increased 28% compared to a year earlier, while earnings were negatively impacted by higher -- but more typical -- mortality losses.”

Property and Casualty Segment

The property and casualty segment recorded net income of $10.2 million for the quarter compared to $13.2 million for the same period in 2012. The total property and casualty combined ratio of 97.2% and the underlying combined ratio of 95.4% each increased approximately 2 percentage points compared to the first quarter of 2012. Pretax catastrophe losses in the current quarter of $5.7 million, or 4.2 points, were comparable to a year ago. Favorable prior years’ reserve development totaling $3.3 million, or 2.4 points, was recorded in the first quarter, compared to $4.0 million of favorable development recorded in the first quarter of 2012. The combined ratio increase reflected a decrease in anticipated current accident year auto salvage and subrogation recoveries, as well as an anticipated increase in the expense ratio.

Total property and casualty premiums written of $131.9 million increased 3% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012, driven by increases in average property and auto premiums per policy.

True new auto sales units -- units associated with new Horace Mann auto policyholders -- increased 1% in the current quarter. Reflecting a lower level of sales from additional vehicles added to existing policies, total new auto units decreased 4% compared to a year earlier. For property, new sales units increased 7% compared to the first quarter of 2012. In addition, auto and property policy renewal rates for the current period were approximately 2 percentage points higher than prior year.

Annuity Segment

Annuity segment net income was $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, decreasing $0.5 million compared to the same period in 2012. Primarily reflecting growth in assets under management, the net interest margin earned on fixed annuity assets increased 4% compared to the first quarter of 2012, with the related net interest spread of 2.01% decreasing 10 basis points. The evaluation of deferred policy acquisition costs in the quarter had a $1.6 million pretax positive impact on annuity segment earnings compared to a $2.6 million positive impact in the prior year, with the decrease primarily due to financial market performance. Total accumulated account value of $4.9 billion increased 9% compared to March 31, 2012, and total cash value persistency of 95.1% improved nearly 1 percentage point compared to a year earlier.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, annuity deposits received of $90.2 million decreased 2% compared to the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in scheduled deposit receipts in the current period.

Horace Mann’s annuity sales decreased 3% compared to first quarter 2012. Within this result, annuity sales by Horace Mann’s agency force increased 5%, while sales from the supplemental independent agent distribution channel declined 31% year-over-year.

Life Segment

Life segment net income of $4.3 million for the first quarter decreased $0.9 million compared to the same period in 2012, including an increase in mortality losses in the current period, as well as a slight decrease in investment income. Life persistency of 96% improved slightly compared to 12 months earlier.

Life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits of $23.0 million were comparable to the three months ended March 31, 2012.

New life sales continued to be strong compared to the prior year, with a growth rate of 28% in sales of Horace Mann-manufactured products -- consistent with the company’s strategic intent to significantly increase its underwritten, mortality-based business.

Investment Results

Total net investment income increased 2% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012. Pretax net realized investment gains were $6.9 million in the current quarter and included no impairment write-downs on securities.

Horace Mann’s net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities of $639.4 million at March 31, 2013 increased 38% compared to a year ago, but decreased modestly compared to December 31, 2012.

Capital Management

During the first quarter of 2013, the company repurchased 89,649 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $1.8 million, or an average price per share of $20.53, under its $50 million share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2013, the program had a remaining authorization of $30.4 million. There were 39,667,063 shares outstanding on March 31, 2013.
