-3- STEWART INFORMATION SERVICES CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1: Interim Financial Statements The financial information contained in this report for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and as of June 30, 1999, is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of this information for all unaudited periods, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain amounts in the 1998 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes. Net earnings, as previously reported, were not affected. Note 2: Segment Information The Company's two reportable segments are title and real estate information. Selected financial information related to these segments follows:

Note 3: Earnings Per Share The Company's basic earnings per share figures were calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding during the reporting period. The only potentially dilutive effect on earnings per share for the Company related to its stock option plans. In calculating the effect of the options and determining a figure for diluted earnings per share, the average number of shares used in calculating basic earnings per share was increased by 124,000 and 158,000 for the three month periods ending June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively and 138,000 and 182,000 for the six month periods ending June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. -4- Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations GENERAL The Company's two segments of operations are land titles and real estate information. In general, the principal factors that contribute to increases in the Company's operating revenues include declining mortgage interest rates (which usually increase home sales and refinancing transactions), rising home prices, higher premium rates, increased market share, additional revenues from new offices and increased revenues from commercial transactions. Although relatively few in number, large commercial transactions typically yield higher premiums. Mortgage interest rates were slightly lower, on the average, for the first six months of 1999 when compared to the same period in 1998. The monthly average rate in the first half of 1999 was 7.05 percent compared to 7.07 percent in 1998. Rates dipped lower in the second half of 1998 but have risen steadily in 1999. Rates were just over 8.0 percent at the end of July 1999. Higher interest rates trimmed refinance activity as reported in the Mortgage Banker's Association weekly survey. Refinance activity represented an average 43 percent of all loan applications in the second quarter of 1998, declining to 32 percent in the second quarter of 1999. Higher rates in July 1999 saw refinance applications drop to 23 percent of market volume. The housing market was strong during the first six months of 1999. Sales of existing single-family homes reached an all-time record at an annual rate of 5.5 million units in June 1999. This was up from a 4.7 million unit pace in June 1998. A comparison of the results of operations of the Company for the first six months of 1999 with the first six months of 1998 follows. REVENUES Revenues from title premiums and fees increased $103.3 million, or 25.9%, from a year ago. Slightly lower mortgage interest rates in the early part of 1999 compared to the same period a year ago increased real estate transactions. Strong order counts in the last few months of 1998 and a healthy real estate market in the first half of 1999 generated additional revenues. The number of closings handled by the Company increased 7.2%. Closings increased in Texas, Nevada, California and most other states. The average revenue per closing increased in 1999 due, in part, to a fewer number of refinancings with their lower premiums and higher average home prices in 1999. Increases in revenues from agents contributed to higher revenues in 1999. Other revenues in the first six months of 1999 included a $1.1 million pretax gain resulting from a settlement of a lawsuit and a related sale of an equity ownership in a title agency. The Company began to open its own offices in the related markets during the second quarter of 1999. Real estate information revenues were $31.3 million in 1999 and $23.8 million in 1998. The increase was primarily due to a favorable real estate environment and new businesses started or acquired in 1998. Real estate information profits were reduced by a $1.2 million pretax charge resulting from a settlement of a lawsuit during the second quarter of 1999. Investment income increased 11.6% in 1999 due primarily to an increase in the average balances invested. EXPENSES Amounts retained by agents increased $64.7 million, or 34.1%, over the comparable period in 1998. The percentage of retention by agents to the amounts of revenues from agents was 80.5% and 80.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively. Employee expenses increased $25.2 million, or 21.3%, in 1999 primarily because of a higher average number of employees during the first six months of 1999 compared to a year ago and increased average rates of compensation. The Company continued to maintain higher staff levels in comparison with a year ago. Increases were in areas of automating services rendered to customers and improving its own processes, real estate information services that are being developed and sold to customers and the expansion of its national marketing efforts. -5- The Company believes the development and sale of new products and services is important to its future. Through automated operating processes, the Company expects to add customer services and revenues while reducing operating expenses and title losses in the future. Other operating expenses increased by $15.1 million, or 23.4%, primarily because of the increase in transaction volume. Expenses that increased include REI expenses, rent, business promotion and expenses of new offices. Other operating expenses also include premium taxes, title plant expenses, supplies, computer costs, telephone, travel, policy forms, search fees and delivery costs. Most of these expenses follow, to varying degrees, the changes in transaction volume and revenues. Provisions for title losses and related claims were up $2.9 million, or 16.2%, in 1999. As a percentage of title premiums, fees and related revenues, the provision in the first six months of 1999 decreased to 4.2% versus 4.6% in 1998. The continued improvement in industry trends in claims and the Company's improved experience in claims have led to lower loss ratios. An overall increase in refinancing transactions in recent years, which results in lower loss exposure, also reduced loss ratios. The provision for income taxes represented effective tax rates of 37.5% and 37.4% in 1999 and 1998, respectively. A comparison of the results of operations of the Company for the second quarter of 1999 with the second quarter of 1998 follows. REVENUES Revenues from title premiums and fees increased $56.6 million, or 25.9%, from a year ago. Mortgage interest rates, on average, were slightly lower in the early part of 1999 than in the same period a year ago. Strong order counts in the last few months of 1998 and a good real estate market in the first half of 1999 generated additional revenues. The number of closings handled by the Company decreased slightly. Closings decreased in California, Colorado, Arizona and other states. The average revenue per closing increased in 1999 due, in part, to a fewer number of refinancings with their lower premiums. Increases in revenues from agents contributed to higher revenues in 1999. Real estate information revenues were $16.2 million in 1999 and $12.1 million in 1998. The increase was primarily due to a favorable real estate environment and new businesses started or acquired in 1998. Real estate information profits were reduced by a $1.2 million pretax charge resulting from a settlement of a lawsuit during the second quarter of 1999. Investment income increased 8.5% in 1999 due primarily to an increase in the average balances invested. EXPENSES Amounts retained by agents increased $38.5 million, or 37.1%, over the comparable period in 1998. The percentage of retention by agents to the amounts of revenues from agents was 80.2% and 80.1% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively. Employee expenses increased $10.8 million, or 17.1%, in 1999 primarily because of a higher average number of employees during the first quarter of 1999 compared to a year ago. Other operating expenses increased by $8.4 million, or 24.4%, primarily because of the increase in REI expenses. Other expenses that increased include rent, business promotion, title plant expenses, supplies, computer costs, telephone, travel, premium taxes, policy forms, search fees and delivery costs. Most of these expenses follow, to varying degrees, the changes in transaction volume and revenues. Provisions for title losses and related claims were up $1.9 million, or 18.9% in 1999. As a percentage of title premiums, fees and related revenues, the provision in the second quarter of 1999 decreased to 4.3% versus 4.6% in 1998. The continued improvement in industry trends in claims and the Company's improved experience in claims have led to lower loss ratios. An overall increase in refinancing transactions in recent years, which results in lower loss exposure, also reduced loss ratios. The provision for income taxes represented effective tax rates of 37.5% and 38.4% in 1999 and 1998, respectively. -6- YEAR 2000 ISSUE Information technology is a crucial part of the Company's business. The Company recognizes the technological challenges associated with the Year 2000 Issue ("Y2K"). It has established a formal compliance plan to address these challenges and a Y2K Team to carry out this plan. The plan includes several distinct phases: (1) assessment, (2) remediation, (3) testing and (4) implementation. The progress of the work of the Y2K Team is monitored by the Company's senior management and the audit committee of the Company's board of directors. Computer software is used in the title and real estate information segments of the Company's business. The uses of software in the title segment include searching and examining titles, closing transactions, accounting for agent policies and claims. In the real estate information segment, software is used in providing mortgage services, such as flood determinations, appraisals and assignments. Most of this software was developed by the Company in recent years with Y2K issues in mind. The Company has substantially completed its assessment, remediation and testing of this software. Implementation is being carried out as remediation is completed, with all implementation expected to be completed by the third quarter of 1999. In addition to its work on internally-developed computer software, the Company has conducted an inventory of its systems worldwide. This inventory includes software and hardware acquired from third parties for use by the Company. The inventory also includes critical non-information technology systems which may house non-compliant, imbedded technology, such as fax machines, photocopiers, telephone facilities and other common devices. Assessment of these systems and any necessary remediation was substantially completed during the second quarter of 1999. Mission-critical systems were given high priority. Certain subsidiaries that have been acquired by the Company and still operate with different systems from the Company's have been given high priority under the Company's Y2K plan. All phases of Y2K compliance for these subsidiaries was substantially completed during the second quarter of 1999. In addition to addressing the Company's own systems, as described above, the Y2K Team has assessed, to the extent practicable, the state of readiness of the systems of other mission-critical entities with which it does business. These include independent title insurance agents and other business partners, such as county courthouses and lenders, whose condition or operational capability is important to the Company. Failure by these third parties to resolve adequately their Y2K problems could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations. The Company believes its success in being Y2K compliant will not be conclusively known until the year 2000 is actually reached. Failure by one or more of the Company's own systems could result in lost revenues and additional expenses required to carry out manual processing of transactions. The magnitude of the failure of external forces on the business of the Company cannot be predicted. Failures by the telecommunications industry, banking institutions and others could have far-reaching, materially adverse effects on the Company, the title insurance industry and the entire economy. The Company expects to complete its Y2K program in a timely manner. However, the Company believes that it is not possible to determine with certainty that all Y2K issues have been identified or corrected. The number of devices that could be affected and the interactions among these devices are simply too numerous. In addition, the Company cannot accurately predict how many failures related to the Y2K problem will occur or the severity, duration or financial consequences of such failures. The Company has hired an outside Y2K consultant to assist the Company in meeting its goals and in developing contingency plans to define and address the worst-case scenario likely to be faced. The contingency plan is expected to be completed and in place in the third quarter of 1999. The Company has spent approximately $2.3 million from 1997 through the second quarter of 1999 directly related to assessing, remediating and testing its information technology systems. These amounts have been funded from operations. The Company currently estimates that the total cost of its Y2K compliance program will not exceed $3.5 million. A significant portion of the remaining costs are expected to be incurred during the third quarter of 1999. This entire section ("Year 2000 Issue") is hereby designated a "Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure", as defined in the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act. -7- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash provided by operations represent the primary source of financing for the Company, but this may be supplemented by bank borrowings. The capital resources of the Company and the present debt-to-equity relationship are considered satisfactory. During the first six months of 1999, the Company financed a portion of various acquisitions through the issuance of Common Stock totaling $6.8 million. Acquisitions during the first six months of 1999 have resulted in an increase in goodwill of $6.3 million.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties including, among other things, changes in mortgage interest rates, employment levels, actions of competitors, changes in real estate markets, general economic conditions and legislation (primarily legislation related to insurance) and other risks and uncertainties discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk There have been no material changes in the Company's investment strategies, types of financial instruments held or the risks associated with such instruments which would materially alter the market risk disclosures made in the Company's Annual Statement on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. -8- PART II Page ---------- Item 1. Legal Proceedings 10 Item 5. Other Information 10 Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K (a) Index to exhibits (b) There were no reports on Form 8-K filed during the quarter ended June 30, 1999. -9- ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Registrant is a party to routine lawsuits incidental to its business, most of which involve disputed policy claims. In many of these suits, the plaintiff seeks exemplary or treble damages in excess of policy limits based on the alleged malfeasance of an issuing agent of the Registrant. The Registrant does not expect that any of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition. ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION On March 15, the Registrant's Board of Directors approved a two-for-one split of the Registrant's Common Stock, $1.00 par value ("Common Stock"), and Class B Common Stock, $1.00 par value, which was effected in the form of a stock dividend. Each stockholder of record of the Registrant at the close of business on May 7, 1999 received one additional share for each share owned on that date. The stock dividend was paid on May 21, 1999. -10- SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.

Class B Common stockholders may, with no cumulative voting rights, elect four directors, if 350,000 or more shares of Class B Common stock are outstanding; three directors, if between 200,000 and 350,000 shares of Class B Common Stock are outstanding; if less than 200,000 shares of Class B Common Stock are outstanding, the Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock shall be voted as a single class upon all matters, with the right to cumulate votes for the election of directors. No change in the Certificate of Incorporation which would affect the Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock unequally shall be made without the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of each class, voting as a class. Class B Common Stock may, at any time, be converted by its holders into Common Stock on a share-for-share basis. Such conversion is mandatory on any transfer to a person not a lineal descendant (or spouse, trustee, etc. of such descendant) of William H. Stewart.
