STEWART INFORMATION SERVICES CORPORATION
(Parent Company)
NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT INFORMATION
The Parent Company operates as a holding company, transacting substantially all of its business through its subsidiaries. Its consolidated financial statements are included in Part II, Item 8 of Form 10-K. The Parent Company financial statements should be read in conjunction with the aforementioned consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and financial statement schedules.
Reclassifications. Certain prior year amounts in the Parent Company financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes. Net income (loss) and stockholders’ equity, as previously reported, were not affected.
Investment income. During 2016, 2015 and 2014, Guaranty paid to the Parent Company dividends of $20.0 million, $15.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively.
Class B Common Stock. In April 2016, the Parent Company's stockholders approved the Class B Exchange Agreement, in which all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock were retired in exchange for shares of Common Stock plus $12.0 million in cash. Refer to Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for details.
Income taxes. The Parent Company consistently generates losses, exclusive of dividends or equity earnings from its subsidiaries, and is not expected to generate future income without its subsidiaries.  As a result, an increased valuation allowance was recorded during 2016 against deferred tax assets, net of definite-lived deferred tax liabilities, which more-likely-than-not will not be realized by the Parent Company.
