Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, but not limited to, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”), Risk Factors and the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (including the notes thereto) of Kemper Corporation (“Kemper”) and its subsidiaries (individually and collectively referred to herein as the “Company”) may contain or incorporate by reference information that includes or is based on forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements give expectations or forecasts of future events. The reader can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as “believe(s),” “goal(s),” “target(s),” “estimate(s),” “anticipate(s),” “forecast(s),” “project(s),” “plan(s),” “intend(s),” “expect(s),” “might,” “may,” “could” and other terms of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements, in particular, include statements relating to future actions, prospective services or products, future performance or results of current and anticipated services or products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, trends in operations and financial results.
Any or all forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong, and, accordingly, Kemper cautions readers not to place undue reliance on such statements. Kemper bases these statements on current expectations and the current economic environment as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. They involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These statements are not guarantees of future performance; actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties that may be important in determining the Company’s actual future results and financial condition.
In addition to those factors discussed under Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” of Part I of Kemper’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Annual Report”) as updated by Item 1A. of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the reader should consider the following list of general factors that, among others, could cause the Company’s actual results and financial condition to differ materially from estimated results and financial condition.
Factors related to the legal and regulatory environment in which Kemper and its subsidiaries operate
Evolving practices and interpretations by regulators and courts that increase operating costs and potential liabilities, particularly any that involve retroactive application of new requirements, including, but not limited to, state initiatives related to unclaimed property laws or claims handling practices with respect to life insurance policies and the proactive use of death verification databases;
Adverse outcomes in litigation or other legal or regulatory proceedings involving Kemper or its subsidiaries or affiliates;
Governmental actions, including, but not limited to, implementation of new federal and state laws and regulations, and court decisions interpreting existing laws and regulations or policy provisions;
Uncertainties related to regulatory approval of insurance rates, policy forms, insurance products, license applications, dividends from insurance subsidiaries, acquisitions of businesses and other matters within the purview of state insurance regulators;
Factors relating to insurance claims and related reserves in the Company’s insurance businesses
The incidence, frequency and severity of catastrophes occurring in any particular reporting period or geographic area, including natural disasters, pandemics and terrorist attacks or other man-made events;
The number and severity of insurance claims (including those associated with catastrophe losses);
Changes in facts and circumstances affecting assumptions used in determining loss and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) reserves, including, but not limited to, the number and severity of insurance claims, changes in claims handling procedures and closure patterns and development patterns;
The impact of inflation on insurance claims, including, but not limited to, the effects on personal injury claims of increasing medical costs and the effects on property claims attributed to scarcity of resources available to rebuild damaged structures, including labor and materials and the amount of salvage value recovered for damaged property;
Developments related to insurance policy claims and coverage issues, including, but not limited to, interpretations or decisions by courts or regulators that may govern or influence losses incurred in connection with hurricanes and other catastrophes;
Orders, interpretations or other actions by regulators that impact the reporting, adjustment and payment of claims;

1



Changes in the pricing or availability of reinsurance, or in the financial condition of reinsurers and amounts recoverable therefrom;
Factors related to the Company’s ability to compete
Changes in the ratings by rating agencies of Kemper and/or its insurance company subsidiaries with regard to credit, financial strength, claims paying ability and other areas on which the Company is rated;
The level of success and costs incurred in realizing or maintaining economies of scale, integrating acquired businesses and implementing significant business initiatives, and the timing of the occurrence or completion of such events, including, but not limited to, those related to expense and claims savings, consolidations, reorganizations and technology;
Absolute and relative performance of the Company’s products and services, including, but not limited to, the level of success achieved in designing and introducing new insurance products;
The ability of the Company to maintain the availability of critical systems and manage technology initiatives cost-effectively to address insurance industry developments and regulatory requirements;
Heightened competition, including, with respect to pricing, consolidations of existing competitors or entry of new competitors and alternate distribution channels, introduction of new technologies, emergence of telematics, refinements of existing products and development of new products by current or future competitors;
Expected benefits and synergies from mergers, acquisitions and/or divestitures that may not be realized to the extent anticipated, within expected time frames or at all, due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, the loss of key agents/brokers, customers or employees, increased costs, fees, expenses and related charges and delays caused by factors outside of the Company’s control;
Factors relating to the business environment in which Kemper and its subsidiaries operate
Changes in general economic conditions, including, but not limited to, performance of financial markets, interest rates, inflation, unemployment rates and fluctuating values of particular investments held by the Company;
Absolute and relative performance of investments held by the Company;
Changes in insurance industry trends and significant industry developments;
Changes in consumer trends and significant consumer or product developments;
Changes in capital requirements, including the calculations thereof, used by regulators and rating agencies;
Regulatory, accounting or tax changes that may affect the cost of, or demand for, the Company’s products or services or after-tax returns from the Company’s investments;
The impact of required participation in windpools and joint underwriting associations, residual market assessments and assessments for insurance industry insolvencies;
Changes in distribution channels, methods or costs resulting from changes in laws or regulations, lawsuits or market forces;
Increased costs and risks related to cybersecurity that could materially affect the Company’s operations, including, but not limited to, data breaches, cyber-attacks, virus or malware installation or other system hazards or infiltrations affecting system integrity, availability and performance, and actions taken to minimize and remediate the risks thereof; and
Other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in Kemper’s filings with the SEC
Kemper cannot provide any assurances that the results contemplated in any forward-looking statements will be achieved or will be achieved in any particular timetable or that future events or developments will not cause such statements to be inaccurate. Kemper assumes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statements publicly for any changes in events or developments or in the Company’s expectations or results subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Kemper advises the reader, however, to consult any further disclosures Kemper makes on related subjects in its filings with the SEC.

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and include the accounts of Kemper Corporation and its subsidiaries and are unaudited. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including certain financial statement footnote disclosures, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) is not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting and has been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. The preparation of interim financial statements relies heavily on estimates. This factor and other factors, such as the seasonal nature of some portions of the insurance business, as well as market conditions, call for caution in drawing specific conclusions from interim results. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the 2018 Annual Report.
Adoption of New Accounting Guidance
Guidance Adopted in 2019
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases—(Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 introduced a lessee model that requires the recognition of a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 using the modified retrospective method at the beginning of the period of the adoption and elected the permitted practical expedients to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases, the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and initial direct costs for any existing leases. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 had no impact on the Company’s Shareholders’ Equity as of January 1, 2019, but resulted in the establishment of a ROU asset of $66.5 million, a lease liability of $82.5 million and an adjustment to deferred rent liability of $16.0 million. The Company made an immaterial revision to the adoption impact of ASU 2016-02 during the second quarter of 2019. The ROU Asset and related liabilities were included in Other Assets and Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2019.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Derivatives and Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 aligns an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. The amendments in ASU 2017-12 expand and refine hedge accounting for both nonfinancial and financial risk components and align the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. Furthermore, the amendments make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance and ease the administration of hedge documentation requirements and assessing hedge effectiveness. ASU 2017-12 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. The impact of adoption of ASU 2017-12 on the Company’s consolidated financial position was not material.
Guidance Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that utilizes expected credit losses to provide for an allowance for credit losses for financial instruments and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The income statement includes the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities are measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, although ASU 2016-13 requires that they be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. In situations where the estimate of credit loss on an available-for-sale debt security declines, entities will be able to record the reversal to income in the current period, which GAAP currently prohibits. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those

Note 1- Basis of Presentation-continued
annual periods with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018 and interim periods within such year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-12, Financial Services—Insurance (Topic 944): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts. ASU 2018-12 amends the accounting model for certain long-duration insurance contracts and requires the insurer to provide additional disclosures in annual and interim reporting periods. ASU 2018-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods therein. The amendments in ASU 2018-12 are intended to improve measurement of the liability for future policy benefits related to nonparticipating traditional and limited-payment contracts, measurement and presentation of market risk benefits, amortization of deferred acquisition costs, and enhance presentation and disclosures. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments. ASU 2019-04 clarifies certain aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments, previously addressed by ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Derivatives and Hedging Activities, and ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 in the first quarter of 2019. Accordingly, the amendments in ASU 2019-04 related to clarifications on accounting for hedging activities are effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The amendments of ASU 2019-04 related to ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, and ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.
In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. ASU 2019-05 provides transition relief for entities adopting the credit loss standard, ASU 2016-13. Specifically ASU 2019-05 amends ASU 2016-13 to allow companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option for financial instruments that are: (i) within the scope of the credit loss guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses; (ii) were previously recorded at amortized cost; (iii) are eligible for the fair value option under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments; and (iv) are not held to maturity debt. ASU 2019-05 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.
The Company has adopted all other recently issued accounting pronouncements with effective dates prior to January 1, 2019. Other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases—(Topic 842) there were no adoptions of such accounting pronouncements during the six months ended June 30, 2019 that had a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. With the possible exceptions of (i) ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, (ii) ASU 2018-12, Financial Services—Insurance (Topic 944):Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts, (iii) ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, and (iv) ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief, the Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements with effective dates after June 30, 2019 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and/or disclosures.

Note 2 - Acquisition of Business
Acquisition of Infinity Property and Casualty Corporation
On July 2, 2018, Kemper acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Infinity Property and Casualty Corporation (“Infinity”), pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement dated February 13, 2018.
During the second quarter of 2019, the Company finalized its estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, changes to the preliminary estimates and allocation as a result of events or conditions as of the acquisition date, are reported in the Company’s financial statements as an adjustment to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company finalized its estimate of certain legal and tax accruals, increasing liabilities assumed by $2.7 million, increasing current income tax assets by $0.2 million and increasing goodwill by $2.5 million. The Company has allocated all of the goodwill associated with the Infinity acquisition to the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill include synergies from economies of scale within the underwriting and claims operations, acquiring a talented workforce and cost savings opportunities.
Based on the Company’s final allocation of the purchase price as of June 30, 2019, the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were:

The Company regularly reviews its fixed maturity investment portfolio for factors that may indicate that a decline in fair value of an investment is other than temporary. The portions of the declines in the fair values of fixed maturity investments that are determined to be other than temporary are reported as losses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the periods when such determinations are made.
Unrealized losses on fixed maturities, which the Company has determined to be temporary at June 30, 2019, were $17.1 million, of which $10.6 million was related to fixed maturities that were in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. There were $0.1 million of unrealized losses at June 30, 2019 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under the heading “Less Than 12 Months.” There were no unrealized losses at June 30, 2019 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under the heading “12 Months or Longer.” Investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $9.3 million and below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $7.8 million of the unrealized losses on investments in fixed maturities at June 30, 2019. For below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments in an unrealized loss position, the unrealized loss amount, on average, was approximately 3% of the amortized cost basis of the investment. At June 30, 2019, the Company did not have the intent to sell these investments, and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these investments before it recovered the amortized cost of such investments, which may be at maturity. Based on the Company’s evaluation of the prospects of the issuers at June 30, 2019, including, but not limited to, the credit ratings of the issuers of the investments in the fixed maturities, and the Company’s intention to not sell and its determination that it would not be required to sell before it recovered the amortized cost of such investments, the Company concluded that the declines in the fair values of the Company’s investments in fixed maturities presented in the preceding table were temporary at the evaluation date.

Unrealized losses on fixed maturities, which the Company determined to be temporary at December 31, 2018, were $86.6 million, of which $22.0 million was related to fixed maturities that were in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. There were no unrealized losses at December 31, 2018 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under the heading “Less Than 12 Months.” There were no unrealized losses at December 31, 2018 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under the heading “12 Months or Longer.” Investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $69.5 million and below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $17.1 million of the unrealized losses on investments in fixed maturities at December 31, 2018. For below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments in an unrealized loss position, the unrealized loss amount, on average, was approximately 5% of the amortized cost basis of the investment. At December 31, 2018, the Company did not have the intent to sell these investments, and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Based on the Company’s evaluation at December 31, 2018 of the prospects of the issuers, including, but not limited to, the credit ratings of the issuers of the investments in the fixed maturities, and the Company’s intention to not sell and its determination that it would not be required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost of such investments, the Company concluded that the declines in the fair values of the Company’s investments in fixed maturities presented in the preceding table were temporary at the evaluation date.
The following table sets forth the pre-tax amount of other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) credit losses recognized in Retained Earnings for Investments in Fixed Maturities held by the Company as of the beginning and end of the periods presented for which a portion of the OTTI loss related to factors other than credit has been recognized in AOCI, and the corresponding changes in such amounts.

Note 3 - Investments (continued)
For Equity Securities at Modified Cost, the Company performs a qualitative impairment analysis on a quarterly basis consisting of various factors such as earnings performance, current market conditions, changes in credit ratings, changes in the regulatory environment and other factors. If the qualitative analysis identifies the presence of impairment indicators, the Company estimates the fair value of the investment. If the estimated fair value is below the carrying value, the Company records an other-than-temporary impairment in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income to reduce the carrying value to the estimated fair value. When the Company identifies observable transactions of the same or similar securities to those held by the Company, the Company increases or decreases the carrying value to the observable transaction price. The Company did not recognize any increases in the carrying value due to observable transactions. The Company recognized an impairment of $0.2 million on Equity Securities at Modified Cost in other comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of the Company’s qualitative impairment analysis. The Company has recognized $0.2 million in cumulative decreases in the carrying value due to observable transactions, no cumulative increases in the carrying value due to observable transactions and $4.7 million of cumulative impairments on Equity Securities at Modified Cost held as of June 30, 2019.
There were no unsettled sales of Investments in Equity Securities at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. There were no unsettled purchases of Investments in Equity Securities at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Equity Method Limited Liability Investments include investments in limited liability investment companies and limited partnerships in which the Company’s interests are not deemed minor and are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s investments in Equity Method Limited Liability Investments are generally of a passive nature in that the Company does not take an active role in the management of the investment entity. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss at June 30, 2019 is limited to the total carrying value of $219.7 million. In addition, the Company had outstanding commitments totaling approximately $98.3 million to fund Equity Method Limited Liability Investments at June 30, 2019.

Property and casualty insurance reserves are estimated based on historical development patterns and current economic trends. Actual loss development and loss trends are likely to differ from these historical development patterns and loss trends. Loss development and loss trends emerge over several years from the dates of loss inception. The Company monitors such emerging loss development patterns on a quarterly basis. Changes in such estimates are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the period of change.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company decreased its property and casualty insurance reserves by $34.6 million to recognize favorable development of loss and LAE reserves from prior accident years. Specialty Personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $18.0 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected for liability insurance related to the 2018 accident year. Preferred Personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $5.0 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected for liability insurance related to 2018 and 2017 accident years. Other personal lines loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $2.7 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected for the 2018 and 2017 accident years. Commercial automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $8.8 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected for liability insurance related to the 2018 accident year.

Note 4 - Property and Casualty Insurance Reserves (continued)
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company increased its property and casualty insurance reserves by $1.6 million to recognize adverse development of loss and LAE reserves from prior accident years. Specialty Personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $4.2 million due primarily to the emergence of worse loss patterns than expected for liability insurance for the 2017 accident year. Preferred Personal automobile insurance loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $1.0 million due primarily to the emergence of loss patterns that were better than expected for liability insurance for the 2016 and prior accident years, partially offset by the emergence of less favorable loss patterns than expected for both physical damage and liability insurance lines for the 2017 accident year. Homeowners insurance non-catastrophe loss and LAE reserves developed adversely by $8.3 million due primarily to the emergence of loss patterns that were worse than expected for the 2017 and 2016 accident years, partially offset by favorable development on catastrophes of $6.4 million related to the 2017 accident year. Other personal lines loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $2.2 million due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss patterns than expected for the 2017 and 2016 accident years. Commercial automobile loss and LAE reserves developed favorably by $0.9 million due primarily to the emergence of loss patterns that were more favorable than expected for the 2014 accident year and, to a lesser extent, the 2017 and 2016 accident years.
The Company cannot predict whether loss and LAE reserves will develop favorably or adversely from the amounts reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company believes that any such development will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated shareholders’ equity, but could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial results for a given period.
Note 5 - Debt
Amended and Extended Credit Agreement and Term Loan Facility
On June 8, 2018, the Company entered into an amended and extended credit agreement and term loan facility. The amended and extended credit agreement increased the borrowing capacity of the existing unsecured credit agreement to $300.0 million and extended the maturity date to June 8, 2023. The term loan facility included a delayed draw feature with borrowing capacity of $250.0 million and a maturity date two years from the borrowing date (see discussion below under heading, “Term Loan Due 2020,” for additional information). Furthermore, the amended and extended credit agreement provided for an accordion feature whereby the Company can increase either the revolving credit or term loan borrowing capacity by $100.0 million. On June 4, 2019, the Company utilized the accordion feature under its credit agreement to increase its revolving credit borrowing capacity by $100.0 million resulting in the available revolving credit commitments increasing from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. The Company incurred $0.1 million in additional debt issuance costs in connection with the utilization of the accordion feature, which, in addition to the $1.1 million of remaining unamortized costs under the revolving credit agreement, will be amortized under the remaining term of the revolving credit agreement. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreement at either June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
Long-term Debt
The Company designates debt obligations as either short-term or long-term based on maturity date at issuance, or in the case of the 2022 Senior Notes, based on the date of assumption. Total amortized cost of Long-term Debt outstanding at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was:

Note 5 - Debt (continued)
Term Loan Due 2020
On June 29, 2018, the Company borrowed $250.0 million under its delayed-draw term loan facility, dated June 8, 2018, to facilitate the funding of the acquisition of Infinity. The proceeds from the term loan facility, net of debt issuance costs, were $249.4 million. On December 28, 2018, the Company repaid $215.0 million of the outstanding term loan. On May 31, 2019, the remaining outstanding balance of $35.0 million was repaid.
Term Loan Due 2023
On June 4, 2019, the Company entered into a delayed-draw term loan facility with a borrowing capacity of $50.0 million and a maturity date four years from the borrowing date (the “2023 Term Loan”). The 2023 Term Loan was undrawn at June 30, 2019. On July 5, 2019, the Company borrowed $50.0 million under the 2023 Term Loan, with a final maturity date of July 5, 2023 (and a mutual option to extend the maturity date by one year).
5.0% Senior Notes Due 2022
Infinity’s liabilities at the acquisition date included $275.0 million principal amount, 5.0% Senior Notes due September 19, 2022 (“2022 Senior Notes”). The 2022 Senior Notes were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date, $282.1 million, with the $7.1 million premium being amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining term, resulting in an effective interest rate of 4.36%. On November 30, 2018, Kemper executed a guarantee to fully and unconditionally guarantee the payment and performance obligations of the 2022 Senior Notes.
4.35% Senior Notes Due 2025
Kemper has $450.0 million of 4.35% senior notes due February 15, 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”) outstanding as of June 30, 2019. Kemper initially issued $250.0 million of the notes in February of 2015 and issued an additional $200 million of the notes in June of 2017. The additional notes are fungible with the initial notes issued in 2015, and together are treated as part of a single series for all purposes under the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes. The 2025 Senior Notes are unsecured and may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time at Kemper’s option at specified redemption prices.
7.375% Subordinated Debentures Due 2054
On June 7, 2019, Kemper issued a notice of redemption for the entire $150.0 million aggregate principal outstanding of its 7.375% Subordinated Debentures due 2054 (the “7.375% Subordinated Debentures”) at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the redemption date. On July 8, 2019, Kemper completed the redemption, and the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures were repaid in full. The Company expects to recognize a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $5.8 million in its third quarter Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company used the proceeds received from Kemper’s common stock offering on June 7, 2019, as well as, a portion of the proceeds from its July 5, 2019 borrowing under the 2023 Term Loan to repay the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures. See Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity,” for additional information regarding the common stock offering.
Collateralized Investment Borrowings
Kemper’s subsidiaries, United Insurance Company of America (“United Insurance”) and Trinity Universal Insurance Company (“Trinity”), are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Chicago and Dallas, respectively. As a requirement of membership in the FHLB, United Insurance and Trinity maintain a certain level of investment in FHLB common stock and additional amounts based on the level of outstanding borrowings. The Company’s investments in FHLB common stock are reported at cost and included in Equity Securities at Modified Cost. The carrying value of FHLB of Chicago common stock held by United Insurance was $3.1 million and $0.8 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The carrying value of FHLB of Dallas common stock held by Trinity was $3.3 million at both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
In March of 2018, United Insurance received advances of $10.0 million from the FHLB of Chicago. These advances, made in connection with the start-up of a collateralized investment borrowing program for the Company (“Collateralized Investment Borrowing” program), were collateralized by U.S Government Agency securities held in a custodial account with the FHLB of Chicago with a fair value of $15.7 million at December 31, 2018. These advances were repaid in March of 2019.

Note 5 - Debt (continued)
In March of 2019, United Insurance received advances of $187.7 million from the FHLB of Chicago. During the second quarter of 2019, United Insurance received advances of $71.3 million and repaid $104.0 million under the Collateralized Investment Borrowing program. United Insurance had outstanding advances from the FHLB of Chicago totaling $155.0 million at June 30, 2019. These advances were made in connection with the Company’s Collateralized Investment Borrowing program. Proceeds related to these advances were used to purchase fixed maturity securities to earn incremental net investment income. With respect to these advances, United Insurance held pledged securities in a custodial account with the FHLB of Chicago with a fair value of $177.6 million as of June 30, 2019.
The fair value of the collateral pledged must be maintained at certain specified levels above the borrowed amount, which can vary depending on the assets pledged. If the fair value of the collateral declines below these specified levels of the amount borrowed, United Insurance would be required to pledge additional collateral or repay outstanding borrowings.

Note 7 - Income from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share
The Company’s awards of deferred stock units contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents and participate in the undistributed earnings with common shareholders, as did the Company’s awards of restricted stock units and performance share units prior to 2018. Accordingly, the Company is required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings per share. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of Basic Income from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share and Diluted Income from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share for the six and three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is presented below.

Note 9 - Stockholders’ Equity
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
During the second quarter of 2019, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the Kemper Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) and the reservation of 1,300,000 shares for issuance under the ESPP. The purpose of the ESPP is to provide eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries with the opportunity to purchase shares of common stock at a discounted price through payroll deductions with the goal of enhancing employees’ sense of participation in the Company and further align employee interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.
Under the ESPP, eligible employees may purchase shares of Company common stock through payroll deductions of between 1% and 10% of after-tax compensation each pay period, with a maximum participation of $25,000 annually. The shares are purchased at the end of each three-month offering period at a 15% discount from the closing market price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the last trading day of the offering period.

Note 9 - Stockholders’ Equity (continued)
Common Stock Issuance
On June 7, 2019, the Company completed a public offering of its common stock and issued 1,552,500 shares of common stock, at $83.00 per share. Gross proceeds from the offering were $128.9 million. Transaction costs, including the underwriting discount, were $1.7 million, of which $0.3 million was accrued for and included in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2019. In July 2019, the Company used the net proceeds of $127.2 million from the offering, together with a portion of the proceeds from the 2023 Term Loan (see Note 5, “Debt”) to redeem all $150.0 million in aggregate outstanding principal of its 7.375% Subordinated Debentures due 2054.
Note 10 - Income Taxes
The statute of limitations related to Kemper and its eligible subsidiaries’ consolidated Federal income tax returns is closed for all tax years up to and including 2011. As a result of the Company filing amended federal income tax returns resulting from an election to update interest rates used to compute the tax basis of reserves on life insurance contracts issued prior to 2018, tax years 2012 and 2013 are under limited examination with respect to carryback adjustments associated with the amended returns. The statute of limitations related to tax years 2014 and 2015 has been extended to December 31, 2019.
The expiration of the statute of limitations related to the various state income tax returns that Kemper and its subsidiaries file varies by state.
There were no unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2019. Liabilities for Unrecognized Tax Benefits at December 31, 2018 included $3.7 million for tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred income tax accounting, other than for interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the effective income tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Liabilities for Unrecognized Tax Benefits included accrued interest of $0.7 million at December 31, 2018.
Income taxes paid, net of refunds received, were $42.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Income taxes paid, net of refunds received, were $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Note 11 - Pension Benefits and Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions
The Company sponsors a qualified defined benefit pension plan (the “Pension Plan”) that covers approximately 8,800 participants and beneficiaries, of which 1,400 are active employees. Effective June 30, 2016, benefit accruals were frozen for substantially all of the participants under the Pension Plan, and, effective January 1, 2006, the Pension Plan was closed to new hires.

Note 13 - Fair Value Measurements
The Company classifies its investments in Fixed Maturities as available for sale and reports these investments at fair value. The Company reports equity investments with readily determinable fair values as Equity Securities at Fair Value. Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value practical expedient are not required to be classified using the fair value hierarchy, but are presented in the following two tables to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The valuation of assets measured at fair value in Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2019 is summarized below.

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)


Note 13 - Fair Value Measurements (continued)
The Company’s investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 1 in the two preceding tables primarily consist of U.S. Treasury Bonds and Notes. The Company’s investments in Equity Securities at Fair Value that are classified as Level 1 in the two preceding tables consist of either investments in publicly-traded common stocks or exchange traded funds. The Company’s investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 2 in the two preceding tables primarily consist of investments in corporate bonds, obligations of states and political subdivisions, and bonds and mortgage-backed securities of U.S. government agencies. The Company’s investments in Equity Securities at Fair Value that are classified as Level 2 in the two preceding tables primarily consist of investments in preferred stocks. The Company uses a leading, nationally recognized provider of market data and analytics to price the vast majority of the Company’s Level 2 measurements. The provider utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. Because many fixed maturity securities do not trade on a daily basis, the provider’s evaluated pricing applications apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing to prepare evaluations. In addition, the provider uses model processes to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios. The pricing provider’s models and processes also take into account market convention. For each asset class, teams of its evaluators gather information from market sources and integrate relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news into the evaluated pricing applications and models. The Company generally validates the measurements obtained from its primary pricing provider by comparing them with measurements obtained from one additional pricing provider that provides either prices from recent market transactions, quotes in inactive markets or evaluations based on its own proprietary models.
The Company investigates significant differences related to the values provided. On completion of its investigation, management exercises judgment to determine the price selected and whether adjustments, if any, to the price obtained from the Company’s primary pricing provider would warrant classification of the price as Level 3. In instances where a measurement cannot be obtained from either pricing provider, the Company generally will evaluate bid prices from one or more binding quotes obtained from market makers to value investments in inactive markets and classified by the Company as Level 2. The Company generally classifies securities when it receives non-binding quotes or indications as Level 3 securities unless the Company can validate the quote or indication against recent transactions in the market.
The Company’s Investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 3 in the two preceding tables are priced primarily using a market yield approach and primarily consist of collateralized loan obligations that are rated by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”) and privately placed securities that are not rated by a NRSRO. A market yield approach uses a risk-free rate plus a credit spread depending on the underlying credit profile of the security. The Company uses a leading, nationally recognized provider of market data and analytics to price the vast majority of its collateralized loan obligations. Some of the significant inputs used by such provider are unobservable. Accordingly, the Company classifies these investments as Level 3. For floating rate securities, the risk-free rate used in the market yield is the contractual floating rate of the security. For each other individual security, the Company or the Company’s third party appraiser gathers information from market sources, relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news and determines an appropriate market yield for each security. The market yield selected is then used to discount the estimated future cash flows of the security to determine the fair value. The Company separately evaluates market yields based upon asset class to assess the reasonableness of the recorded fair value. For non-investment-grade Investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 3, the two primary asset classes are senior debt and junior debt. Senior debt includes those securities that receive first priority in a liquidation and junior debt includes any fixed maturity security with other than first priority in a liquidation.

For an investment in a fixed maturity security, an increase in the yield used to determine the fair value of the security will decrease the fair value of the security. A decrease in the yield used to determine fair value will increase the fair value of the security, but the fair value increase is generally limited to par, unless callable at a premium, if the security is currently callable.

The fair value measurement for loans to policyholders are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value measurement of Short-term Investments is estimated using inputs that are considered either Level 1 or Level 2 measurements. The fair value measurement of Mortgage Loans is estimated using inputs that are considered Level 2 measurements.The fair value of Debt is estimated using quoted prices for similar liabilities in markets that are not active. The inputs used in the valuation are considered Level 2 measurements. Collateralized Investment Borrowings consist of advances from the FHLB of Chicago, and the inputs used in the valuation are considered Level 2 measurements.

Note 14 - Contingencies
In the ordinary course of its businesses, the Company is involved in legal proceedings, including lawsuits, regulatory examinations, audits and inquiries. Except with regard to the matters discussed below, based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that any of its pending legal proceedings will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Over the last decade, there have been an array of initiatives that seek, in various ways, to impose new duties on life insurance companies to proactively search for information related to the deaths of their insureds. These initiatives, which can include legislation, audits, regulatory examinations and related litigation, could alter the terms of Kemper’s life insurance subsidiaries’ life insurance contracts by imposing requirements that did not exist and were not contemplated at the time those companies entered into such contracts.
In 2016, the Company voluntarily began implementing a comprehensive process to compare its life insurance records against one or more death verification databases to determine if any of its insureds may be deceased and took a pre-tax charge of $77.8 million in 2016 to recognize the initial impact of this process. Attempts to further estimate the ultimate outcomes of the aforementioned initiatives entail uncertainties including, but not limited to (i) the scope and interpretation of pertinent statutes, including the matching criteria and methodologies to be used in comparing policy records against a death verification database, (ii) the universe of policies affected, (iii) the results of audits, examinations and other actions by regulators and (iv) related litigation.
Gain Contingency
In October 2015, Kemper’s subsidiary, Kemper Corporate Services, Inc. (“KCSI”), filed a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), claiming that Computer Sciences Corporation (“CSC”) had breached the terms of a master software license and services agreement and related agreements (collectively, the “Agreements”) by failing, among other things, to timely produce and deliver certain software to KCSI. CSC denied KCSI’s claims and filed a counterclaim. On April 1, 2017, CSC merged with a spin-off of the Enterprise Services business of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company and is now known as DXC Technology Company (“DXC”). Currently, DXC’s stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
In April 2017, the parties participated in an evidentiary hearing in Texas before a AAA-appointed arbitrator. Subsequently, in October 2017, the arbitrator issued a Partial Final Award finding that CSC had breached the Agreements and awarding KCSI direct damages plus pre-judgment interest. KCSI then submitted to the arbitrator a supplemental petition providing pre-judgment interest calculations and seeking an award for certain costs and expenses. In November 2017, the arbitrator issued a Final Award awarding KCSI direct damages against CSC of $84.3 million, prejudgment interest at the annual rate of 9% and costs and expenses in the amount of $7.2 million.

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)


Note 14 - Contingencies (continued)
KCSI pursued confirmation and enforcement of the Final Award in U.S. District Court in Texas. In December 2017, CSC filed a Petition to Vacate an Arbitration Award in the U.S. District Court in New York and a motion to stay the proceedings in Texas. Following briefing and a hearing, the New York district court denied CSC’s motion to stay the Texas action and instead stayed the New York action. In March 2018, the Texas district court denied CSC’s motion to transfer venue and the New York district court subsequently transferred the vacatur proceeding to Texas. In April 2018, the Texas district court consolidated the two actions and the parties briefed KCSI’s Amended Motion to Confirm Arbitration Award and CSC’s motion to vacate the arbitration award.
On September 26, 2018, the Texas district court issued an Amended Final Judgment that (i) confirmed the Arbitration Award in favor of KCSI, (ii) denied CSC’s motion to vacate, and (iii) entered judgment against CSC in the total amount of $141.7 million.
CSC is appealing the district court’s ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. In the meantime CSC paid Kemper $35.7 million in September 2018 and an additional $20.1 million in April 2019 in partial satisfaction of the final judgment. The Company recognized such payments in Other Income in its Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2018 and in its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the six and three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company cannot make any assurance as to the additional amounts of the final judgment that will actually be collected or when they may be received. The unpaid balance of the final judgment is treated as a gain contingency for accounting purposes and accordingly, is not recognized in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Note 15 - Related Parties
Mr. Christopher B. Sarofim, a director of Kemper, is Vice Chairman and a member of the board of directors of Fayez Sarofim & Co. (“FS&C”), a registered investment advisory firm. The Company’s defined benefit pension plan had $151.8 million in assets managed by FS&C at June 30, 2019 under an agreement with FS&C whereby FS&C provides investment management services with respect to certain funds of the plan. Investment expenses incurred in connection with such agreement were $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company believes that the services described above have been provided on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been negotiated with non-affiliated third parties.
Note 16 - Subsequent Event
On July 8, 2019, the Company completed the redemption of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.375% Subordinated Debentures due 2054, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest and were repaid in full. The Company used the proceeds received from Kemper’s common stock offering on June 7, 2019, as well as, a portion of the proceeds from its July 5, 2019 borrowing under the 2023 Term Loan to repay the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures. See Note 5, “Debt,” and Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity,” for additional information regarding the issuance of the 2023 Term Loan and common stock offering, respectively. The Company expects to recognize a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $5.8 million in its third quarter Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Net Income
Net Income increased by $186.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018. Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Income increased by $96.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to higher segment net operating income, higher income from change in fair value of equity and convertible securities, higher net realized gains on sales of investments, partially offset by higher impairment losses recognized in earnings. In the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment, segment net operating income increased by $96.5 million due primarily to the acquisition of Infinity and favorable loss and LAE reserve development. See MD&A, “Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance,” for additional discussion of the segment’s results. In the Life & Health Insurance segment, segment net operating income decreased by $14.4 million due primarily to higher insurance expenses and policyholder benefits. Higher sales volumes in both the Life and Health business lines resulted in increased earned premiums and corresponding variable compensation expense. The benefits ratio deteriorated in 2019 relative to 2018 due to an increase in policyholders’ benefits related to the Accident and Health business.See MD&A, “Life & Health Insurance,” for discussion of the segment’s results.

37



Summary of Results (continued)
The Company’s results were also favorably impacted in 2019, compared to 2018, due to the recognition of a $20.1 million gain for the partial satisfaction of a final judgment against CSC and by an increase of $24.4 million in net realized gains on sales of investments, partially offset by an increased level of other than temporary impairment losses on investments, as well as a reduced level of transaction and integration costs associated with the Infinity acquisition. Additionally the Company’s investment results were favorably impacted in 2019, compared to 2018, by a $70.1 million increase from the change in fair value of the equity and convertible securities. See MD&A, “Investment Results,” and MD&A, “Expenses,” for additional discussion.
Net Income increased by $84.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018. In the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment, segment net operating income increased by $11.2 million due primarily to lower catastrophe losses in 2019. See MD&A, “Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance,” for additional discussion of the segment’s results. In the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment, segment net operating income increased by $40.3 million due primarily to the acquisition of Infinity and favorable loss and LAE reserve development. See MD&A, “Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance,” for additional discussion of the segment’s results. In the Life & Health Insurance segment, segment net operating income decreased by $13.4 million due primarily due to higher benefits. Higher sales volumes in both the Life and Health business lines resulted in increased earned premiums and corresponding variable expense. The benefits ratio deteriorated in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to an increase in Accident and Health policyholder benefits. See MD&A, “Life & Health Insurance,” for discussion of the segment’s results. The Company’s results were also favorably impacted in 2019, compared to 2018, due to the recognition of a $20.1 million gain for the partial satisfaction of a final judgment against CSC and by an increase of $13.8 million in net realized gains on sales of investments, partially offset by an increased level of other than temporary impairment losses on investments, as well as a reduced level of transaction and integration costs associated with the Infinity acquisition. Additionally the Company’s investment results were favorably impacted in 2019, compared to 2018, by a $19.8 million increase from the change in the fair value of equity and convertible securities. See MD&A, “Investment Results,” and MD&A, “Expenses,” for additional discussion.
Revenues
Earned Premiums were $2,191.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1,267.9 million for the same period in 2018, an increase of $923.5 million. Earned Premiums for the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by $16.2 million, $896.9 million and $10.4 million in the Preferred Property & Casualty, Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment and Life & Health Insurance segment, respectively. Infinity accounted for $803.2 million of the increase in Earned Premiums in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment for the six months ended June 30, 2019. See MD&A, “Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance,” MD&A, “Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance,” and MD&A,“Life & Health Insurance,” for discussion of the changes in each segment’s earned premiums.
Earned Premiums were $1,116.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $658.1 million for the same period in 2018, an increase of $458.5 million. Earned Premiums for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased by $7.4 million, $446.0 million and $5.1 million in the Preferred Property & Casualty, Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment and Life & Health Insurance segment, respectively. Infinity accounted for $413.6 million of the increase in Earned Premiums in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment for the three months ended June 30, 2019. See MD&A, “Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance,”, MD&A, “Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance,” and MD&A,“Life & Health Insurance,” for discussion of the changes in each segment’s earned premiums.
Net Investment Income increased by $21.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to a higher investment base, largely due to the inclusion of the Infinity investment portfolio beginning in July 2018, compared to the first six months of 2018, which period did not include the Infinity investment portfolio, partially offset by a lower rate of return from Alternative Investments. Net Investment Income from Alternative Investments related to Equity Method Limited Liability Investments decreased by $9.5 million. Income from limited liability investments included in either Equity Securities at Fair Value or Equity Securities at Modified Cost decreased by $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018.
Net Investment Income increased by $17.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to a higher investment base, largely due to the inclusion of the Infinity investment portfolio beginning in July 2018 , as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, which period did not include the Infinity investment portfolio.

38



Summary of Results (continued)
Other income increased $22.2 million and $21.5 million for the six and three months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2018, due primarily to the recognition of the $20.1 million gain for the partial satisfaction of a final judgment against CSC. The Company cannot make any assurance as to the final judgment that will actually be collected or when that it may be received. The unpaid balance of the final judgment is treated as a gain contingency for accounting purposes and, accordingly, is not recognized in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 14, “Contingencies,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net Realized Gains on Sales of Investments were $37.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $6.4 million for the same period in 2018. Net Realized Gains on Sales of Investments were $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $3.8 million for the same period in 2018.
Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings were $10.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2018. Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings were $6.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $0.0 million for the same period in 2018.
See MD&A, “Investment Results,” under the sub-captions “Net Realized Gains on Sales of Investments” and “Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings” for additional discussion. The Company cannot predict if or when similar investment gains or losses may occur in the future.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Underlying Losses and LAE and Underlying Combined Ratio
The following discussion of segment results uses the non-GAAP financial measures of (i) Underlying Losses and LAE and (ii) Underlying Combined Ratio. Underlying Losses and LAE (also referred to in the discussion as “Current Year Non-catastrophe Losses and LAE”) exclude the impact of catastrophe losses, and loss and LAE reserve development from prior years from the Company’s Incurred Losses and LAE, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The Underlying Combined Ratio is computed by adding the Current Year Non-catastrophe Losses and LAE Ratio with the Insurance Expense Ratio. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the Combined Ratio, which is computed by adding total incurred losses and LAE, including the impact of catastrophe losses and loss and LAE reserve development from prior years, with the Insurance Expense Ratio.
The Company believes Underlying Losses and LAE and the Underlying Combined Ratio are useful to investors and uses these financial measures to reveal the trends in the Company’s Property & Casualty Insurance segment that may be obscured by catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development. These catastrophe losses may cause the Company’s loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude and can have a significant impact on incurred losses and LAE and the combined ratio. Prior-year reserve developments are caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. Because reserve development relates to the re-estimation of losses from earlier periods, it has no bearing on the performance of the Company’s insurance products in the current period. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company’s underwriting performance.

39



Non-GAAP Financial Measures (continued)
Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Income
Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Income is an after-tax, non-GAAP financial measure and is computed by excluding from Income from Continuing Operations the after-tax impact of:
(i)
Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities;
(ii)
Net Realized Gains on Sales of Investments;
(iii)
Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings related to investments;
(iv)
Acquisition Related Transaction, Integration and Other Costs;
(v)
Loss from Early Extinguishment of Debt; and
(vi)
Significant non-recurring or infrequent items that may not be indicative of ongoing operations.
Significant non-recurring items are excluded when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years and (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is Income from Continuing Operations. There were no applicable significant non-recurring items that the Company excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Income for the six and three months ended June 30, 2019 or 2018.
The Company believes that Adjusted Consolidated Net Operating Income provides investors with a valuable measure of its ongoing performance because it reveals underlying operational performance trends that otherwise might be less apparent if the items were not excluded. Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities, Net Realized Gains on Sales of Investments and Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings related to investments included in the Company’s results may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments such as capital market conditions that impact the values of the Company’s investments, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Loss from Early Extinguishment of Debt is driven by the Company’s financing and refinancing decisions and capital needs, as well as external economic developments such as debt market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Acquisition Related Transaction and Integration Costs may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by the timing of acquisitions and business decisions which are unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Significant non-recurring items are excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of the Company’s business or economic trends.
The preceding non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for the comparable GAAP financial measures, as they do not fully recognize the overall profitability of the Company’s businesses.

Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance (continued)
Overall
Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to the Same Period in 2018
The Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment reported Segment Net Operating Income of $8.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $7.5 million for the same period in 2018. Net operating results increased by $0.5 million due primarily to lower incurred catastrophe losses and LAE (excluding loss and LAE reserve development) and a favorable change in loss and LAE reserve development, partially offset by higher underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums, particularly in the Company’s homeowners business and lower net investment income.
Earned Premiums in the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment increased by $16.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to higher average rates. All lines experienced an increase in average earned premium, although the overall impact on Earned Premiums was driven primarily by preferred automobile insurance and homeowners insurance, which had increases due to higher average earned premium of $14.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Other insurance experienced an increase in average earned premium of $1.4 million. Overall volume was down with higher volume in preferred automobile insurance of $5.7 million, offset by volume decreases in homeowners and other insurance of $4.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
Net Investment Income in the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment decreased by $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to a lower rate of return on Alternative Investments.
Underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums were 64.1% in 2019, an increase of 2.0 percentage points, compared to 2018, driven primarily by a deterioration in homeowners insurance. Underlying losses and LAE exclude the impact of catastrophes and loss and LAE reserve development. Catastrophe losses and LAE (excluding reserve development) were $39.2 million in 2019, compared to $47.6 million in 2018, a decrease of $8.4 million. This decrease was due primarily to catastrophic events in 2019 with an overall lower loss and LAE (excluding reserve development), compared to 2018 and reduced exposures in the homeowners line. Favorable Loss and LAE reserve development (including catastrophe reserve development) was $9.3 million in 2019, compared to $2.4 million in 2018.
Insurance expenses were $115.2 million, or 30.8% of earned premiums, in 2019, a decrease of 0.1 percentage point compared to 2018.
The Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment’s effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory income tax rate due primarily to tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions.

The Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment reported Segment Net Operating Income of $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to a loss of $6.0 million for the same period in 2018. Net operating results increased by $11.2 million due primarily to lower incurred catastrophe losses and LAE (excluding loss and LAE reserve development) and a favorable change in loss and LAE reserve development, partially offset by higher underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums, particularly in the Company’s homeowners business.
Earned Premiums in the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment increased by $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to higher average rates. All lines experienced an increase in average earned premium, although the overall impact on Earned Premiums was driven primarily by preferred automobile insurance and other insurance, which had increases due to higher average earned premium of $7.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Homeowners insurance experienced an increase in average earned premium of $0.5 million. Overall premium volume declined driven by decreases in homeowners insurance and other insurance of $1.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in preferred automobile insurance of $2.0 million.
Net Investment Income in the Preferred Property & Casualty Insurance segment decreased by $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018.
Underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums were 63.2% in 2019, an increase of 3.7 percentage points, compared to 2018, driven primarily by a higher ratio in homeowners insurance. Underlying losses and LAE exclude the impact of catastrophes and loss and LAE reserve development. Catastrophe losses and LAE (excluding reserve development) were $22.6 million in 2019, compared to $40.3 million in 2018, a decrease of $17.7 million. Favorable Loss and LAE reserve development (including catastrophe reserve development) was $5.2 million in 2019, compared to $1.2 million in 2018.

Overall
Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to the Same Period in 2018
The Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment reported Segment Net Operating Income of $142.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $45.8 million for the same period in 2018. Segment net operating results improved by $96.5 million due primarily to the acquisition of Infinity as well as favorable loss and LAE reserve development and improved underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums.
Earned Premiums in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment increased by $896.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Infinity accounted for $803.2 million of the increase, while higher volume and higher average earned premium on Kemper’s legacy business accounted for increases of $75.2 million and $18.5 million, respectively. Both of the segment’s product lines experienced an increase in average earned premium, although the overall impact on Earned Premiums was driven primarily by specialty personal automobile insurance which had increases due to higher average earned premium of $17.6 million. Higher volume on Kemper’s legacy’s business was driven by specialty personal automobile insurance, which had a volume increase of $80.6 million, partially offset by volume decreases in legacy Kemper commercial automobile insurance of $5.4 million.
Net Investment Income in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment increased by $30.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to a higher investment base, largely due to the inclusion of the Infinity investment portfolio beginning in July 2018, compared to the first six months of 2018, which period did not include the Infinity investment portfolio.
Underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums were 75.2% in 2019, an improvement of 1.6 percentage points, compared to 2018, driven primarily by the inclusion of results from Infinity’s personal automobile insurance. Underlying losses and LAE exclude the impact of catastrophes and loss and LAE reserve development. Catastrophe losses and LAE (excluding reserve development) were $5.0 million in 2019, compared to $2.3 million in 2018, an increase of $2.7 million. Favorable loss and LAE reserve development (including catastrophe reserve development) was $26.8 million in 2019, compared to adverse development of $3.3 million in 2018.
Insurance expenses were $265.7 million, or 17.8% of earned premiums, in 2019, an increase of 1.6 percentage points compared to 2018, driven primarily by the amortization of Infinity purchase accounting adjustments.
The Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment’s effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory income tax rate due primarily to tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions.

Higher volume on Kemper’s legacy business was driven by specialty personal automobile insurance, which had a volume increase of $29.7 million, partially offset by volume decreases in legacy Kemper commercial automobile insurance of $3.7 million.
Net Investment Income in the Specialty Property & Casualty Insurance segment increased by $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to higher levels of investments, largely due to the inclusion of the Infinity investment prortfolio beginning in July 2018.

Insurance Expenses increased by $167.0 million in 2019, of which $142.3 million was due to the inclusion of Infinity. Insurance Expenses on Kemper’s legacy business increased due primarily to business growth.

Insurance Expenses increased by $92.3 million in 2019, of which $77.3 million was due to the inclusion of Infinity. Insurance Expenses on Kemper’s legacy business increased due primarily to growth of business, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives.
Interest and Other Expenses was $79.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $54.7 million for the same period in 2018. Interest expense increased by $7.4 million in 2019 due primarily to the assumption of Infinity’s debt. See MD&A, “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” and Note 5, “Debt,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of debt activity.

Income Taxes
The federal corporate statutory income tax rate was 21% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018. The Company’s effective income tax rate from continuing operations differs from the federal corporate income tax rate due primarily to tax-exempt investment income, dividends received deductions, a permanent difference between the amount of long-term equity-based equity compensation expense recognized under GAAP and the amount deductible in the computation of Federal taxable income, and a permanent difference associated with nondeductible executive compensation.
Tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions collectively were $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $9.9 million for the same period in 2018. Tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions collectively were $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2018.
The amount of expense recognized for long-term equity-based compensation expense under U.S. GAAP was $17.6 million lower than the amount that would be deductible under the Internal Revenue Code (the “IRC”) for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $4.0 million lower for the same period in 2018. The amount of expense recognized for long-term equity-based compensation expense under U.S. GAAP was $16.6 million lower than the amount that would be deductible under the IRC for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1.8 million lower for the same period in 2018.
The amount of nondeductible executive compensation was $2.9 million and $1.5 million for the six and three months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements with effective dates prior to July 1, 2019. Other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, 2016-02, Leases—(Topic 842), as discussed in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the impact of adopting new accounting guidance was not material. With the possible exceptions of (i) ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, (ii) ASU 2018-12, Financial Services—Insurance (Topic 944):Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Long-Duration Contracts, (iii) ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, and (iv) ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief, the Company does not expect the adoption of all other recently issued accounting pronouncements with effective dates after June 30, 2019 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and/or disclosures. See Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of recently adopted accounting pronouncements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Common Stock Offering
On June 7, 2019 the Company completed a public offering (the “Offering”) and issued 1,552,500 shares of common stock, at$83.00 per share. Gross proceeds from the Offering were $128.9 million. Transaction costs, including the underwriting discount, were $1.7 million, of which $0.3 million was accrued for and reflected in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2019. The Company used the net proceeds of $127.2 million, together with a portion of the proceeds from the New Term Loan (see Note 5, Debt) to redeem all $150.0 million in aggregate outstanding principal of its 7.375% Subordinated Debentures due 2054, in July 2019.

65



Amended and Extended Credit Agreement and Term Loan Facility
On June 8, 2018, the Company entered into an amended and extended credit agreement and term loan facility. The amended and extended credit agreement increased the borrowing capacity of the existing unsecured credit agreement to $300.0 million and extended the maturity date to June 8, 2023. The term loan facility included a delayed draw feature with borrowing capacity of $250.0 million and a maturity date two years from the borrowing date (see discussion below under the heading, “Repayment of Term Loan Due 2020,” for additional information regarding the initial borrowing and subsequent repayment of this delayed-draw term loan). Furthermore, the amended and extended credit agreement provided for an accordion feature whereby the Company can increase either the revolving credit or term loan borrowing capacity by $100.0 million. On June 4, 2019, the Company utilized the accordion feature under its credit agreement to increase its revolving credit borrowing capacity by $100.0 million resulting in the available revolving credit commitments increasing from $300.0 million to $400.0 million. The Company incurred $0.1 million in additional debt issuance costs in connection with the utilization of the accordion feature, which, in addition to the $1.1 million of remaining unamortized costs under the revolving credit agreement, will be amortized under the remaining term of the revolving credit agreement. There were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit agreement at either June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.
Long-term Debt
The Company designates debt obligations as either short-term or long-term based on maturity date at issuance, or in the case of the 2022 Senior Notes, based on the date of assumption. Total amortized cost of Long-term Debt outstanding at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was:

Repayment of Term Loan Due 2020
On June 29, 2018, the Company borrowed $250.0 million under its delayed-draw term loan facility dated June 8, 2018, to facilitate the funding of the acquisition of Infinity. The proceeds from the term loan facility, net of debt issuance costs, were $249.4 million. On December 28, 2018, the Company repaid $215.0 million of the outstanding term loan. On May 31, 2019, the remaining outstanding balance of $35.0 million was repaid.
Term Loan Due 2023
On June 4, 2019, the Company entered into a delayed-draw term loan facility with a borrowing capacity of $50.0 million and a maturity date four years from the borrowing date (the “2023 Term Loan”). The 2023 Term Loan was undrawn at June 30, 2019. On July 5, 2019, the Company borrowed $50.0 million with the final maturity date of July 5, 2023, with a mutual option to extend the maturity date by one year.
5.0% Senior Notes Due 2022
Infinity’s liabilities at the acquisition date included $275.0 million principal amount, 5.0% Senior Notes due September 19, 2022 (“2022 Senior Notes”). The 2022 Senior Notes were recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date, $282.1 million, with the $7.1 million premium being amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining term, resulting in an effective interest rate of 4.36%. On November 30, 2018, Kemper executed a guarantee to fully and unconditionally guarantee the payment and performance obligations of the 2022 Senior Notes.
4.35 % Senior Notes Due 2025
Kemper has $450.0 million of 4.35% senior notes due February 15, 2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”) outstanding as of June 30, 2019. Kemper initially issued $250.0 million of the notes in February of 2015 and issued an additional $200 million of the notes in June of 2017. The additional notes are fungible with the initial notes issued in 2015, and together are treated as part of a single series for all purposes under the indenture governing the 2025 Senior Notes. The 2025 Senior Notes are unsecured and may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time at Kemper’s option at specified redemption prices.

66



Redemption of 7.375% Subordinated Debentures Due 2054
On June 7, 2019, Kemper issued a notice of redemption for the entire $150.0 million aggregate principal outstanding of its 7.375% Subordinated Debentures due 2054 (the “7.375% Subordinated Debentures”) at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the redemption date. On July 8, 2019, Kemper completed the redemption, and the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures were repaid in full. The Company expects to recognize a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $5.8 million in its third quarter Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company used the proceeds received from the Company’s June 7, 2019 common stock offering, as well as, a portion of the proceeds from its July 5, 2019 borrowing under the 2023 Term Loan, to repay the 7.375% Subordinated Debentures. See to Note 5, “Debt,” and Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Collateralized Investment Borrowings
Kemper’s subsidiaries, United Insurance Company of America (“United Insurance”) and Trinity Universal Insurance Company (“Trinity”), are members of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Chicago and Dallas, respectively. As a requirement of membership in the FHLB, United Insurance and Trinity maintain a certain level of investment in FHLB common stock and additional amounts based on the level of outstanding borrowings. The Company’s investment in FHLB common stock are reported at cost and included in Equity Securities at Modified Cost. The carrying value of FHLB of Chicago common stock was $3.1 million and $0.8 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The carrying value of FHLB of Dallas common stock was $3.3 million at both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
In March of 2018, United Insurance received advances of $10.0 million from the FHLB of Chicago. These advances, made in connection with the start-up of the Company’s Collateralized Investment Borrowing program, were collateralized by U.S Government Agency securities held in a custodial account with the FHLB of Chicago with a fair value of $15.7 million at December 31, 2018. These advances were repaid in March of 2019.
United Insurance had outstanding advances from the FHLB of Chicago totaling $155.0 million at June 30, 2019. These advances were made in connection with the Company’s Collateralized Investment Borrowing program. The proceeds related to these advances were used to purchase fixed maturity securities to earn incremental net investment income. With respect to these advances, United Insurance held pledged securities in a custodial account with the FHLB of Chicago with a fair value of $177.6 million at June 30, 2019. The fair value of the collateral pledged must be maintained at certain specified levels above the borrowed amount, which can vary depending on the assets pledged. If the fair value of the collateral declines below these specified levels of the amount borrowed, United Insurance would be required to pledge additional collateral or repay outstanding borrowings.
See Note 5, Debt, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Subsidiary Dividends and Capital Contributions
Various state insurance laws restrict the ability of Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends without regulatory approval. Such insurance laws generally restrict the amount of dividends paid in an annual period to the greater of statutory net income from the previous year or 10% of statutory capital and surplus. Kemper made an $85 million capital contribution to one of its insurance subsidiaries during the first six months of 2019 and Kemper’s direct insurance subsidiaries paid $244 million in dividends to Kemper during the first six months of 2019. Kemper estimates that its direct insurance subsidiaries would be able to pay approximately $82 million in additional dividends to Kemper during the remainder of 2019 without prior regulatory approval.
Dividends to Shareholders
Kemper paid a quarterly dividend to shareholders of $0.25 per common share in the second quarter of 2019. Dividends and dividend equivalents paid were $32.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Sources and Uses of Funds
Kemper directly held cash and investments totaling $312.7 million at June 30, 2019, compared to $100.6 million at December 31, 2018. A portion of the cash and investments held by Kemper at June 30, 2019 were used to repay the outstanding principal balance of $150.0 million, plus accrued interest, related to the Company’s 7.375% Subordinated Debentures on July 8, 2019.

67



Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
The primary sources of funds available for the repayment of the Company’s indebtedness, repurchases of common stock, future shareholder dividend payments and the payment of interest on Kemper’s senior notes, subordinated debentures and term loan, include cash and investments directly held by Kemper, receipt of dividends from Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries and borrowings under the credit agreement and from subsidiaries.
The primary sources of funds for Kemper’s insurance subsidiaries are premiums, investment income, proceeds from the sales and maturity of investments, advances from the FHLBs of Dallas and Chicago, and capital contributions from Kemper. The primary uses of funds are the payment of policyholder benefits under life insurance contracts, claims under property and casualty insurance contracts and accident and health insurance contracts, the payment of commissions and general expenses, the purchase of investments and repayments of advances from the FHLBs of Dallas and Chicago. Generally, there is a time lag between when premiums are collected and when policyholder benefits and insurance claims are paid.
In 2016, the Company’s Life & Health segment voluntarily began implementing a comprehensive process under which it cross-references its life insurance policies against death verification databases to identify potential instances where the beneficiaries may not have filed a claim following the death of an insured and initiate an outreach process to identify and contact beneficiaries and settle claims.
During periods of growth, property and casualty insurance companies typically experience positive operating cash flows and are able to invest a portion of their operating cash flows to fund future policyholder benefits and claims. During periods in which premium revenues decline, insurance companies may experience negative cash flows from operations and may need to sell investments to fund payments to policyholders and claimants. In addition, if the Company’s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries experience several significant catastrophic events over a relatively short period of time, investments may have to be sold in advance of their maturity dates to fund payments, which could result in either investment gains or losses. Management believes that its property and casualty insurance subsidiaries maintain adequate levels of liquidity in the event that they were to experience several future catastrophic events over a relatively short period of time.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities was $236.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $191.4 million for the same period in 2018.
Net Cash provided by Financing Activities was $206.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net cash used of $344.6 million for the same period in 2018. Net proceeds from Collateralized Investment Borrowings provided $145.1 million of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net proceeds from borrowing under the term loan facility provided $249.4 million of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Kemper used $32.8 million of cash to pay dividends for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $24.9 million of cash used to pay dividends in the same period of 2018. The quarterly dividend rate was $0.25 per common share for the first and second quarter of 2019 and $0.24 for each quarter of 2018.
Cash available for investment activities in total is dependent on cash flow from Operating Activities and Financing Activities and the level of cash the Company elects to maintain. Net Cash Used by Investing Activities was $413.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities of $68.2 million for the same period in 2018. Short-term investments investing activities used $353.4 million of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to providing $67.6 million of cash for the same period in 2018. Fixed Maturities investing activities provided cash of $237.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to using $26.2 million of cash for the same period in 2018. Equity and Convertible Securities investing activities used net cash of $149.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net cash used of $61.0 million for the same period in 2018. Equity Method Limited Liability Investments investing activities used net cash of $37.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net cash used of $6.4 million for the same period in 2018. Net cash used for the acquisition and development of software and long-lived assets was $30.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to $32.8 million for the same period in 2018.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Kemper’s subsidiaries conduct their operations in two industries: property and casualty insurance and life and health insurance. Accordingly, the Company is subject to several industry-specific accounting principles under GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The process of estimation is inherently uncertain. Accordingly, actual results could ultimately differ materially from the estimated amounts reported in a company’s financial statements. Different assumptions are likely to result in different estimates of reported amounts.

68



Critical Accounting Estimates (continued)
The Company’s critical accounting policies most sensitive to estimates include the valuation of investments, the valuation of reserves for property and casualty insurance incurred losses and LAE, the assessment of recoverability of goodwill and the valuation of pension benefit obligations. The Company’s critical accounting policies are described in the MD&A included in the 2018 Annual Report. There has been no material changes to the information disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report with respect to these critical accounting estimates and the Company’s critical accounting policies except for the classification and measurement of equity investments as discussed further below.
Equity Investments
Equity investments include common stocks, non-redeemable preferred stocks, exchange traded funds, money market mutual funds and limited liability companies and investment partnerships in which the Company’s interests are deemed minor. Equity investments with readily determinable fair values are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet with changes in fair value reported as Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity and Convertible Securities. Dividend income on investments in common and non-redeemable preferred stocks is recognized on the ex-dividend date. The Company holds certain equity investments without readily determinable fair values at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transaction for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as Equity Securities at Modified Cost. Changes in carrying value of Modified Cost investments due to observable price changes are recorded as Income (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Equity Securities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes to the Company’s disclosures about market risk in Item 7, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk of Part II of the 2018 Annual Report. Accordingly, no disclosures about market risk have been made in Item 3 of this Form 10-Q.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a)
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
The Company’s management, with the participation of Kemper’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, Kemper’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by Kemper in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including Kemper’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b)
Changes in internal controls.
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Items not listed here have been omitted because they are inapplicable or the answer is negative.
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Information concerning pending legal proceedings is incorporated herein by reference to Note 14, “Contingencies,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this Form 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except for the deletion in its entirety of the risk factor entitled “To be successful, the combined company following the Infinity Merger must retain and motivate key employees, including those experienced with post-acquisition integration, and failure to do so could seriously harm the combined company.” and the addition of the risk factor below, that was previously included in Item 1A. of Part II, of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, there were no significant changes in the risk factors included in Item 1A. of Part I of the 2018 Annual Report.
Risk Factor Added
To realize all of the anticipated results contemplated by the Infinity Merger, the combined company must complete the successful integration of the Kemper and Infinity business operations, and failure to do so could prevent the Company from achieving the full benefits it had expected in connection with the Infinity Merger.
The success of the integration, and of the combined company following the Infinity Merger, has been substantially dependent on the skills, experience and efforts of management and other key personnel for each of Kemper and Infinity. Although the dependency on specific individuals, including senior management of Infinity, has decreased since the date of the acquisition as the businesses have been integrated, the Company will need to continue to devote significant management attention and resources to the integration of the operations of the businesses. There is no assurance that key managers will remain with the Company, and it is possible that unforeseen expenses or delays may occur in connection with particular integration efforts. The anticipated benefits, including synergies, cost savings and growth opportunities, may not be achieved within the expected time frames, or at all. As a result, Kemper cannot assure shareholders that the Company will realize the full benefits anticipated from the Infinity Merger.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds 
On August 6, 2014, Kemper’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of Kemper’s common stock. As of June 30, 2019, the remaining share repurchase authorization was $243.7 million under the repurchase program. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
