The St. Paul Travelers Companies, Inc.

 

Financial Supplement - Second Quarter 2004

 

On April 1, 2004, Travelers Property Casualty Corp. (Travelers) completed its previously announced merger into The St. Paul Companies, Inc. (St. Paul), forming The St. Paul Travelers Companies, Inc. (St. Paul Travelers).  Each share of Travelers class A and class B common stock was exchanged for 0.4334 of a share of St. Paul Travelers common stock.  For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Travelers treated as the accounting acquirer.  Accordingly, the transaction is being accounted for as a purchase business combination, using Travelers historical financial information and applying fair value estimates to the acquired assets, liabilities and commitments of St. Paul as of April 1, 2004.

 

All historical information prior to April 1, 2004 included in this Financial Supplement represents the standalone results of Travelers as Travelers is treated as the accounting acquirer.

In a changing interest rate environment the change in the value of the futures contracts can be expected to partially offset changes in the value of the fixed maturity portfolio.

The gross reinsurance recoverable on paid and unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses represent the current and estimated future amounts due from reinsurers on known and unassertedclaims.  The ceded reserves are estimated in a manner consistent with the underlying direct and assumed reserves.  Although this total comprises recoverables due from nearly one thousanddifferent reinsurance entities, about half is attributable to 10 reinsurer groups.

 

The allowance for uncollectible reinsurance is based upon the Company’s ongoing review of amounts outstanding, length of collection periods, changes in reinsurer credit standing, andother relevant factors.

 

The mandatory pools and associations represent various involuntary assigned risk pools that the Company is required to participate in.  These pools principally involve workers’ compensationand automobile insurance, which provide various insurance coverages to insureds that otherwise are unable to purchase coverage in the open market.  The costs of these mandatory pools inmost states are usually charged back to the participating members in proportion to voluntary writings of related business in that state.  In the event that a member of the pool becomesinsolvent, the remaining members assume an additional pro rata share of the pool’s liabilities.

 

The structured settlements represent annuities that are purchased from life insurance companies to settle personal physical injury claims, with workers’ compensation claims comprising a significantproportion.  The Company retains the ultimate liability to the claimant in the event that the assigned company fails to pay, so the amount is reflected as a liability and as a recoverable for GAAP purposes.

 

During the first quarter of 2004, the Company entered into an agreement to settle all current and future reinsurance claims against certain underwriters at Lloyds of London reinsured by Equitas.  Underterms of this settlement, the Company received $245 million, resolving approximately $255 million of Travelers’ net claim balances from Equitas.  If federal asbestos reform legislation is enacted by the108th U.S. Congress, Equitas may elect to recoup $150 million from Travelers and, if Equitas makes that election, the reinsurance agreements for asbestos coverage will be reinstated.  As a result,these funds are being held in trust, and the related reinsurance recoverables and reserves will remain on the balance sheet until the contingency is resolved.  There are no contingencies related to theremaining $95 million, which has been reflected as a reduction to the reinsurance recoverable.

 

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with a reinsurer to settle all current and future reinsurance claims related to various treaty reinsurance programs.  This commutation agreement settles $1.069 billion in net claim balances from this reinsurer and has been reflected as a reduction to the reinsurance recoverable.  In addition to the commutation, the Company entered into a new reinsurance agreement covering the 2000 accident year for the former St. Paul companies on an aggregate basis.

Glossary of Financial Measures

 

All historical information through the first quarter of 2004 included in this Financial Supplement presents only results of Travelers as Travelers is being treated as the accounting acquirer.  Where applicable, historical results conform with current business segment definitions.

 

The following measures are used by the Company’s management to evaluate financial performance against historical results and establish targets on a consolidated basis.  These measures are components of net income but, in some cases, are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable SEC rules because they are not displayed as separate line items in the consolidated statement of income, and in some cases, require inclusion or exclusion of certain items not ordinarily included or excluded in a GAAP financial measure.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, a discussion of these measures provides investors with a better understanding of the significant factors that comprise the Company’s periodic results of operations.

 

Operating income and operating income per share:  Net income excluding the after-tax impact of net realized investment gains (losses).

 

Return on equity is the ratio of net income to average equity.  Operating return on equity is the ratio of operating income to average equity excluding net unrealized gains and losses on investment securities, net of tax.

 

In the opinion of the Company’s management, operating income, operating income per share and operating return on equity are meaningful indicators of underwriting and operating results.  These measures exclude net realized investment gains or losses which can be significantly impacted by both discretionary and other economic factors and are not necessarily indicative of operating trends.  Internally the Company’s management uses operating income, operating income per share and operating return on equity to evaluate performance against historical results and established financial targets on a consolidated basis.

 

Underwriting gain or loss:  The profit or loss experienced by a property casualty insurance company after deducting claims and claim adjustment expenses and insurance related expenses from net earned premiums and fee income.  This profit or loss calculation includes reinsurance assumed and ceded but excludes net investment income. 

 

A catastrophe is a severe loss, resulting from natural and manmade events, including risks such as fire, earthquake, windstorm, explosion, terrorism and other similar events.  Each catastrophe has unique characteristics.  Catastrophes are not predictable as to timing or amount in advance, and therefore their effects are not included in earnings or claims and claim adjustment expense reserves prior to occurrence.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, a discussion of the impact of catastrophes is meaningful for investors to understand the variability in periodic earnings.

 

GAAP combined ratio is the sum of the claims and claim adjustment expense ratio, the underwriting expense ratio and, where applicable, the ratio of dividends to policyholders to net premiums earned. A GAAP combined ratio under 100% generally indicates an underwriting profit. A GAAP combined ratio over 100% generally indicates an underwriting loss. The GAAP combined ratio is an operating statistic that includes GAAP measures in the numerator and the denominator.

 

St. Paul Travelers has organized its businesses into the following operating and reporting segments, beginning with the second quarter 2004:

 

Commercial: Commercial – Core offers a broad array of property and casualty insurance and insurance-related services and is organized into the following three marketing and underwriting groups focusing on a particular client base or product grouping to provide products and services that specifically address clients’ needs: Commercial Accounts, Select Accounts and National Accounts. Commercial - Other includes policies written by Gulf, primarily management and professional liability coverages (prior to the integration of these products into Specialty), the Special Liability Group and runoff operations.

 

Specialty provides dedicated underwriting, claim and risk control services that require specialized expertise, domestically and internationally. Domestic specialty includes FPS, Bond, Construction, Other Domestic Specialties (including Technology, Ocean Marine, Oil and Gas, Public Sector, Excess and Umbrella, and others) and International Specialties based in the U.K., Ireland and Canada, as well as Lloyds.

 

Personal writes virtually all types of property and casualty insurance covering personal risks.  The primary coverages in this segment are personal automobile and homeowners insurance sold to individuals.

 

Asset Management comprisesNuveen Investments, whose core businesses are asset management and related research, as well as the development, marketing and distribution of investment products and services for the affluent, high net worth and institutional market segments.  The Company holds a 79% interest in Nuveen Investments.

Prior quarter segments have been restated from the historical presentation of Travelers to conform to the new St. Paul Travelers segment arrangement where practicable.  As a result, prior quarter Bond and Construction results were disaggregated from historical Travelers Commercial Lines segment to create a historical Specialty segment and to restate Commercial into the new format. 

 

Invested and other assets and net investment income (NII) of historical Travelers had been specifically identified by reporting segment prior to the merger.  Beginning in the second quarter 2004, the Company developed a methodology to allocate NII and invested assets across the new segments.  It is not practicable to apply the new methodology to historical businesses and as such, actual NII is included in revenues and operating income of the restated segments of quarters of periods prior to the merger.  It is also not practicable to present total assets for restated Specialty and Commercial segments for periods prior to the merger.  The Company believes that the differences, if any, are not significant to a comparison with the new segment presentation.
