Radian Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

- Lower than expected claims paid; reduced 2009 claims guidance -

- Risk-to-capital ratio of 16.1:1 -

PHILADELPHIA, November 4, 2009—Radian Group Inc. (NYSE: RDN) today reported a net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, of $70.5 million, or $0.86 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $36.7 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the prior-year quarter. Book value per share at September 30, 2009, was $25.91.

“There were several positive trends in the quarter, despite the economic challenges our industry continues to face. We are encouraged by Radian’s lower-than-expected claims activity again this quarter, and the consistently high-quality, lower-risk mortgage insurance business we added to our book,” said Chief Executive Officer S. A. Ibrahim.

Ibrahim added, “Our risk to capital ratio increased slightly from the second quarter to 16.1 to 1, which we believe will allow Radian to comfortably write new, high-quality mortgage insurance business into 2010. We are actively working on strategies to continue writing new business well into the future.”

THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

• Radian Guaranty Inc.’s risk-to-capital ratio was 16.1:1 at September 30, 2009, compared to a ratio of 15.9:1 at June 30, 2009. The company expects to have sufficient capital to write high-quality mortgage insurance business into 2010.

• The mortgage insurance provision for losses of $376.5 million reflects higher delinquency counts and the continued aging of delinquencies. Radian expects delinquencies to continue to rise during the fourth quarter.

• Mortgage insurance paid claims were $243.2 million, which again were lower than the company’s forecast, and consisted of $210.1 million of first liens and $33.1 million of second liens. Net claims paid reported of $135.5 million is net of proceeds received from captive terminations of $107.7 million. In the fourth quarter, total first- and

Page 1

1601 Market Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-2337 800 523.1988 215 564.6600	second-lien claims paid are expected to be approximately $290 million. For the full-year 2009, Radian has reduced its claims-paid expectations from the $1.1 billion range, to a current estimate of $940 million, which includes $87 million of second-lien termination payments.
	•     New mortgage insurance written (NIW) of $3.4 billion in the quarter continued to consist of loans with excellent risk characteristics, including 99.9 percent prime credit quality and 74.6 percent with FICO scores of 740 or above. Market share for the quarter was consistent with levels during the second half of 2008 and the first half of 2009. Separately, approximately $300 million of insurance in the quarter is included in the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP); these loans are treated as a modification of existing coverage, therefore HARP volume is not included in Radian’s NIW total. •     The company sold a non-core subsidiary at its approximate book value, and received $19 million in cash for the sale. Radian also repurchased nearly $58 million of its 2011 debt at an average price of approximately $0.79 on the dollar, further contributing to its liquidity position. Radian had $380 million in cash immediately available at September 30, 2009. •     Radian Asset Assurance Inc., the company’s principal financial guaranty subsidiary, continues to serve as an important source of capital support for Radian Guaranty, the company’s mortgage insurance subsidiary, and is expected to continue to provide Radian Guaranty with cash infusions over time. •     As of September 30, 2009, Radian Asset had approximately $935 million in statutory surplus with an additional $1.6 billion in total claims-paying resources.
	RECENT EVENTS
	•     The company fully satisfied its 2009 tax obligation to Radian Guaranty through the transfer of its equity interest in Sherman Financial Group LLC to Radian Guaranty. As previously announced, this obligation of approximately $98 million was required under Radian Group’s tax-sharing agreement with its subsidiaries. •     Radian Asset has experienced continued deterioration in its Trust Preferred Securities (TruPs) CDO portfolio, including the default of one TruPs CDO that is expected to require a statutory loss reserve in the fourth quarter. •     Radian Asset received approval to release approximately $143 million in contingency reserves in its financial guaranty portfolio, which will also strengthen Radian

1601 Market Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-2337 800 523.1988 215 564.6600	Guaranty’s statutory capital position. The reserve release was based on a reduction in the company’s net par outstanding, resulting from the maturing of exposures and other terminations of coverage.

(1) The capital leverage ratio is derived by dividing net debt service outstanding by qualified statutory capital.

(2) The claims paying leverage ratio is derived by dividing net debt service outstanding by total statutory claims paying resources.

(3) Reduction due to $9.8 billion of par that was commuted in connection with the Ambac commutation in July 2009. Also included in public finance net par outstanding is $2.4 billion for legally defeased bond issues where our financial guaranty policy has not been extinguished but cash or securities have been deposited in an escrow account for the benefit of bondholders. The accounting standard for financial guarantee insurance contracts requires that these contracts continue to be accounted for as outstanding contracts despite the elimination of substantially all risk.

Forward-Looking Statements Some of the statements in this release constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Generally, words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continue,” “goal” and “believe,” or other variations on these and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are only predictions and, as such, are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions as to future events or our future financial performance that may not prove to be accurate. These statements speak only as of the date of this news release, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those projected in such forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the following:

•     changes in general financial and political conditions, such as the failure of the U.S. economy to recover robustly from the current recession or the U.S. economy reentering a recessionary period following a brief period of stabilization or even growth, a further reduction in the liquidity in the capital markets and further contraction of credit markets, a prolonged period of high unemployment rates and limited home price appreciation, changes or volatility in interest rates or consumer confidence, changes in credit spreads, changes in the way investors perceive the strength of private mortgage insurers or financial guaranty providers, investor concern over the credit quality and specific risks faced by the particular businesses, municipalities or pools of assets covered by our insurance; •     catastrophic events or further economic changes in geographic regions where our mortgage insurance or financial guaranty insurance in force is more concentrated; •     our ability to successfully execute upon our capital plan for our mortgage insurance business (which depends, in part, on the performance of our financial guaranty portfolio), and if necessary, to obtain additional capital to support new business writings in our mortgage insurance business and the long-term liquidity needs of our holding company (including significant payment obligations in 2010 and 2011); •     a further decrease in the volume of home mortgage originations due to reduced liquidity in the lending market, tighter underwriting standards and the ongoing deterioration in housing markets throughout the U.S.; •     our ability to maintain adequate risk-to-capital ratios and surplus requirements in our mortgage insurance business in light of ongoing losses in this business and continued deterioration in our financial guaranty portfolio which, in the absence of new capital, may depend on our ability to execute strategies for which regulatory and other approvals are required and may not be obtained; •     our ability to continue to effectively mitigate our mortgage insurance losses, which have positively impacted our provisions for losses; •     the negative impact our increased levels of insurance rescissions and claim denials may have on our relationships with customers; •     the concentration of our mortgage insurance business among a relatively small number of large customers; •     disruption in the servicing of mortgages covered by our insurance policies;

Page 23

1601 Market Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-2337 800 523.1988 215 564.6600

•     the aging of our mortgage insurance portfolio and changes in severity or frequency of losses associated with certain of our products that are riskier than traditional mortgage insurance or financial guaranty insurance policies;

•     the performance of our insured portfolio of higher risk loans, such as Alternative-A (“Alt-A”) and subprime loans, and of adjustable rate products, such as adjustable rate mortgages and interest-only mortgages, which have resulted in increased losses and are expected to result in further losses; •     reduced opportunities for loss mitigation in markets where housing values do not appreciate or continue to decline; •     changes in persistency rates of our mortgage insurance policies; •     an increase in the risk profile of our existing mortgage insurance portfolio due to mortgage refinancing in the current housing market; •     further downgrades or threatened downgrades of, or other ratings actions with respect to, our credit ratings or the ratings assigned by the major rating agencies to any of our rated insurance subsidiaries at any time (in particular, the credit rating of Radian Group Inc. and the financial strength ratings assigned to Radian Guaranty Inc.); •     heightened competition for our mortgage insurance business from others such as the Federal Housing Administration and the Veterans’ Administration or other private mortgage insurers (in particular those that have been assigned higher ratings from the major rating agencies); •     changes in the charters or business practices of Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) and Freddie Mac, the largest purchasers of mortgage loans that we insure, and our ability to remain an eligible provider to both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae; •     the application of existing federal or state consumer, lending, insurance, securities and other applicable laws and regulations, or changes in these laws and regulations or the way they are interpreted; including, without limitation: (i) the outcome of existing investigations or the possibility of private lawsuits or other formal investigations by state insurance departments and state attorneys general alleging that services offered by the mortgage insurance industry, such as captive reinsurance, pool insurance and contract underwriting, are violative of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act and/or similar state regulations, (ii) legislative and regulatory changes affecting demand for private mortgage insurance, or (iii) legislation or regulatory changes limiting or restricting our use of (or requirements for) additional capital, the products we may offer, the form in which we may execute the credit protection we provide or the aggregate notional amount of any product we may offer for any one transaction or in the aggregate;
