1. Basis of Presentation
 
The thirdfirst fiscal quarter for AMERCO ends the 3130stth of DecemberJune for each year that is referenced. Our insurance company subsidiaries have a thirdfirst quarter that ends on the 3031thst of SeptemberMarch for each year that is referenced. They have been consolidated on that basis. Consequently, all references to our insurance subsidiaries’ years 20042005 and 20032004 correspond to the Company’s fiscal years 2006 and 2005, and 2004.respectively.
 
Accounts denominated in non-U.S. currencies have been re-measured using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Certain amounts reported in previous years have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
 
2.Principals of Consolidation and Organization
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the thirdfirst quarter and the first nine months of fiscal year2006 and fiscal 2005, and the balance sheet as of March 31, 20042005 include the accounts of AMERCO, its wholly owned subsidiaries and SAC Holding II Corporation and its subsidiaries. The balance sheet and the statements of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal year 2004 include all of the abovementioned entities plus SAC Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries.
SAC Holding Corporation and SAC Holding II Corporation and their subsidiaries (the “SAC entities”) were considered special purpose entities. During the first three quarters of fiscal year 2004, the SAC entities were consolidated based on the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 90-15. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, the Company applied FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) to its interest in the SAC entities and determined that SAC Holding Corporation should no longer be consolidated with the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004 the Company deconsolidated those entities. The deconsolidation was accounted for as a distribution of the Company’s interests to the SAC entities. Because of the Company’s continui ng involvement with SAC Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries, the distributions do not qualify as discontinued operations as defined by SFAS No. 144.
 
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004June 30, 2005 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flowflows for the quarterfirst quarters of fiscal 2006 and the first nine months ended December 31, 20042005 are unaudited.
In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information in this 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis and financial statements and notes thereto included in the AMERCO 2005 Form 10-K.
Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2004 financial statements to conform to the 2005 presentation.

Consequently, we include the results of SAC Holding II Corporation in the consolidated financial statements of AMERCO, as required by FIN 46(R).
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The accounting estimates that require management’s most difficult and subjective judgments include the principals of consolidation, the recoverability of property, plant and equipment; the adequacy of insurance reserves; and the valuation of investments. The future results actually experienced by the Company may differ from management’s estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers cash equivalents to be highly liquid debt securities with insignificant interest rate risk with original maturities from the date of purchase of three months or less.
Investments
Fixed Maturities.Fixed maturity investments consist of either marketable debt or redeemable preferred stocks. As of the balance sheet date, these investments are either intended to be held to maturity or are considered available-for-sale.
Held-to-Maturity.Investments that are intended to be held-to-maturity are recorded at cost, as adjusted for the amortization of premiums or the accretion of discounts.



AMERCO AND CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
Available-for-Sale.Investments that are considered available-for-sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, recorded instockholders’ equity. Fair value for these investments is based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes or discounted cash flows. The cost of investments sold is based on the specific identification method. Realized gains or losses on the sale or exchange of investments and declines in value judged to be other than temporary are recorded as revenues. Investments a re judged to be impaired if the fair value is less than cost continuously for nine months, absent compelling evidence to the contrary.
Mortgage Loans and Notes on Real Estate.Mortgage loans and notes on real estate are reported at their unpaid balance, net of any allowance for possible losses and any unamortized premium or discount.
Recognition of Investment Income.Interest income from bonds and mortgage notes is recognized when it becomes earned. Dividends on common and preferred stocks are recognized on the ex-dividend dates. Realized gains and losses on the sale or exchange of investments are recognized at the trade date. Unrealized gains and losses are determined as of each balance sheet date.
Fair Values
Fair values of cash equivalents approximate cost due to the short period of time to maturity. Fair values of short-term investments, investments available-for-sale, long-term investments, mortgage loans and notes on real estate, swaps and forward currency contracts are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes or discounted cash flows. Fair values of trade receivables approximate their recorded value.
Limited credit risk exists on trade receivables due to the diversity of our customer base and their dispersion across broad geographic markets. The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of temporary cash investments, trade receivables and notes receivable. The Company places its temporary cash investments with financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution.
The Company has mortgage receivables, which potentially expose the Company to credit risk. The portfolio of notes is principally collateralized by mini-warehouse storage facilities and other residential and commercial properties. The Company has not experienced losses related to the notes from individual notes or groups of notes in any particular industry or geographic area. The estimated fair values were determined using the discounted cash flow method, using interest rates currently offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings.
Other investments, including short-term investments, are substantially current or bear reasonable interest rates. As a result, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate fair value. The carrying value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities and approximates fair market value due to its recent issuance.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company’s primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage currency and interest rate risk. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value under SFAS No. 133 and are included in prepaid expenses.
The Company used derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate volatility. During May 2004, the Company entered into two (2) separate interest rate cap agreements on its $350 million amortizing term loan with notional value of $200 million for a two-year term and $50 million for a three-year term. These agreements cap the LIBOR component on the $250 million notional value at 3.0% throughout the life of the cap. At December 31, 2004, the Company had $347.4 million of variable rate debt.




AMERCO AND CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
Inventories, net
Inventories consist primarily of truck and trailer parts and accessories used to repair rental equipment and products purchased directly for resale. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Inventory cost is primarily determined using the last-in, first-out method. Inventories valued on the LIFO basis were approximately90% of total inventories as of December 31, 2004 and 93% of total inventories as of March 31, 2004. Inventories would have been $3.2million higher at both December 31, 2004 and March 31 2004, if the Company valued inventories using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are stated net of reserves for obsolescence of $2.5 million at both December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2004.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Interest cost incurred during the initial construction of buildings and rental equipment is considered part of cost. Depreciation is computed for financial reporting purposes principally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: rental equipment 2-20 years, buildings and non-rental equipment 3-55 years. Major overhauls to rental equipment are capitalized and are amortized over the estimated period benefited. Routine maintenance costs are charged to operating expense as they are incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of property, plant and equipment are netted against depreciation expense when realized. Depreciation is recognized in amounts expected to result in the recovery of estimated residual values upon disposal, i.e., no g ains or losses. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company lowered its estimates for residual values on rental trucks purchased off leases from 25% of the original cost to 20%. In determining the depreciation rate, historical disposal experience, holding periods and trends in the market for vehicles are reviewed. Since this change in estimated residual values will be applied prospectively we do not anticipate any significant increases in depreciation expense from this change for the current fiscal year.
We regularly perform reviews to determine whether facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the carrying amount of assets, including estimates of residual value, may not be recoverable or that the useful life of assets is shorter or longer than originally estimated. We assess the recoverability of the cost of our assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. If the remaining cost of assets is determined to be recoverable, but the useful lives are shorter or longer than originally estimated, the net book value of the assets is depreciated over the newly det ermined remaining useful lives.
The carrying value of surplus real estate, which is lower than market value, at the balance sheet date was $10.1 million for December 31, 2004 and $10.1 million for March 31, 2004, respectively, and is included with investments, other.
Receivables
Accounts receivable include trade accounts from moving and self storage customers and dealers, insurance premiums and agent balances due, net of commissions payable and amounts due from ceding re-insurers, less management’s estimate of uncollectible accounts.
Notes and mortgage receivables include accrued interest and are reduced by discounts and amounts considered by management to be uncollectible.
Policy Benefits and Losses, Claims and Loss Expenses Payable
Liabilities for life insurance and certain annuity policies are established to meet the estimated future obligations of policies in force, and are based on mortality and withdrawal assumptions from recognized actuarial tables which contain margins for adverse deviation.
Liabilities for annuity contracts consist of contract account balances that accrue to the benefit of the policyholders, excluding surrender values. Liabilities for health, disability and other policies represents estimates of payments to be made on insurance claims for reported losses and estimates of losses incurred, but not yet reported.




AMERCO AND CONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
Liabilities for reported and unreported losses are based on RepWest’s historical experience and industry averages. The liability for unpaid loss adjustment expenses is based on historical ratios of loss adjustment expenses paid to losses paid. Amounts recoverable from re-insurers on unpaid losses are estimated in a manner consistent with the claim liability associated with the reinsured policy. Adjustments to the liability for unpaid losses and loss expenses, as well as amounts recoverable from re-insurers on unpaid losses, are charged or credited to expense in the periods in which they are made.
Revenue Recognition
Rental revenue is recognized for the period that trucks and moving equipment are rented. Storage space revenue is recognized based on the numbers of storage contract days earned. Product sales are recognized at the time that title passes and the customer accepts delivery. Insurance premiums are recognized over the policy periods. Interest and investment income are recognized as earned.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $9.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 and $10.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2004. Advertising expense was $24.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 and $27.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2004
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
Commissions and other costs which fluctuate with, and are primarily related to, the production of future insurance premiums, are deferred. For Oxford, these costs are amortized in relation to revenue such that costs are realized as a constant percentage of revenue. For RepWest, these costs are amortized over the related contract period which generally does not exceed one year.
Environmental Costs
Liabilities are recorded when environmental assessments and remedial efforts, if applicable, are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The amount of the liability is based on management’s best estimate of undiscounted future costs. Certain recoverable environmental costs related to the removal of underground storage tanks or related contamination are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful lives of the properties. These costs improve the safety or efficiency of the property or are incurred in preparing the property for sale.
Income Taxes
AMERCO files a consolidated tax return with all of its legal subsidiaries, except for Christian Fidelity Insurance Company, which files on a stand alone basis. SAC Holdings and its legal subsidiaries file a consolidated return, and their return is not consolidated with AMERCO. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, the provision for income taxes reflects deferred income taxes resulting primarily from changes in temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements.
Comprehensive Income/(Loss)
Comprehensive income/(loss) consists of net income, foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains and losses on investments and fair market values of interest rate hedges, net of the related tax effects.
4.2. Earnings per Share
 
Net income for purposes of computing earnings per common share is net income minus preferred stock dividends. Preferred stock dividends include accrued dividends of AMERCO.

W.P. Carey Transactions
In 1999, AMERCO, Consolidated NotesU-Haul International, Inc. and Loans PayableAmerco Real Estate entered into financing agreements for the purchase and construction of self-storage facilities with the Bank of Montreal and Citibank (the “leases” or the “synthetic leases”). Title to the real property subject to these leases was held by non-affiliated entities.
These leases were amended and restated on March 15, 2004. As a result, we paid down approximately $31.0 million of lease obligations and entered into leases with a three year term, with four one year renewal options. After such pay down, our lease obligation under the amended and restated synthetic leases was approximately $218.5 million.
On April 30, 2004, the amended and restated leases were terminated and the properties underlying these leases were sold to UH Storage (DE) Limited Partnership, an affiliate of W. P. Carey. U-Haul entered into a ten year operating lease with W. P. Carey (UH Storage DE) for a portion of each property (the portion of the property that relates to U-Haul’s truck and trailer rental and moving supply sales businesses). The remainder of each property (the portion of the property that relates to self-storage) was leased by W. P. Carey (UH Storage DE) to Mercury Partners, LP (“Mercury”) pursuant to a 20 year lease. These events are referred to as the “W. P. Carey Transactions.” As a result of the W. P. Carey Transactions, we no longer have a capital lease related to these properties. The terms of the W. P. Carey Transactions provide for us to be reimbursed for capital improvements we previously made to the properties, subject to conditions, which we expect will occur over a period of approximately 18 months following the closing.
 
The annual maturitysales price for these transactions was $298.4 million and cash proceeds were $298.9 million. The Company realized a gain on the transaction of AMERCO Consolidated long-term debt as$2.7 million, which is being amortized over the life of December 31, 2004 for the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

As part of the W. P. Carey Transactions, U-Haul entered into agreements to manage these properties (including the portion of the properties leased by Mercury). These management agreements allow us to continue to operate the properties as part of the U-Haul moving and self-storage system.
 

U-Haul’s annual lease payments under the new lease are approximately $10.0 million per year, with CPI inflation adjustments beginning in the sixth year of the lease. The lease term is ten years, with a renewal option for an additional ten years. Upon closing of the W. P. Carey Transactions, we made a $5.0 million security deposit and an earn-out deposit of $22.9 million. We believe that U-Haul has met the requirements under the lease and the earn-out deposit should be refunded.


The property management agreement we entered into with Mercury provides that Mercury will pay U-Haul a management fee based on gross self-storage rental revenues generated by the properties. During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, U-Haul earned $0.4 million in management fees from Mercury.

W. P. Carey Transaction
In 1999, AMERCO, U-Haul and Real Estate entered into financing agreements for the purchase and construction of self-storage facilities with the Bank of Montreal and Citibank (the "synthetic leases"). Title to the real property subject to these leases was held by non-affiliated entities. As of March 31, 2003, we had obligations outstanding of $254 million under these synthetic leases, of which $117 million represented properties qualifying as operating leases and $137 million represented properties qualifying as capital leases.
These leases were amended and restated on March 15, 2004. As a result, we paid down approximately $31 million of lease obligations and entered into leases with a three year term, with four one year renewal options. After such pay down, our lease obligation under the amended and restated synthetic leases was approximately $218.5 million. The amended and restated terms of the synthetic lease caused it to become a capital lease. Consequently, we capitalized these leased properties as an asset and reported the corresponding lease obligation as a liability at March 31, 2004.

On April 30, 2004, the amended and restated leases were terminated and the properties underlying these leases were sold to W.P. Carey. U-Haul entered into a ten year operating lease with W.P. Carey (UH Storage DE) for a portion of each property (the portion of the property that relates to U-Haul’s truck and trailer rental and moving supply sales businesses). The remainder of each property (the portion of the property that relates to self-storage) was leased from W.P. Carey (UH Storage DE) to Mercury Partners, LP ("Mercury") pursuant to a 20 year lease. These events are referred to as the "W.P. Carey Transaction." As a result of the W.P. Carey Transaction, we no longer have a capital lease related to these properties. The terms of the W.P. Carey Transaction provide for us to be reimbursed for capital i mprovements we previously made to these properties, subject to conditions, which we expect will occur over approximately the next 18 months.
As part of the W.P. Carey Transaction, U-Haul entered into agreements to manage these properties (including the properties leased by Mercury). These management agreements allow us to continue to operate the properties as part of the U-Haul moving and self-storage system.
U-Haul’s annual lease payments under the new lease are approximately $10 million per year, with CPI inflation adjustments beginning in the sixth year of the lease. The lease term is ten years, with a renewal option for an additional ten years. Upon closing of the W.P. Carey Transaction, we made a $5 million security deposit, which will be refunded to us at the end of the lease term. We also made a deposit as part of the W.P. Carey Transaction totaling approximately $23 million, which is to be refunded to us at the earlier of attainment by the properties of certain earn-out milestones, or the end of the lease term.
The property management agreement we entered into with Mercury provides that Mercury will pay U-Haul a fee equal to 4% of the gross self-storage rental revenues generated by the properties, plus a bonus of up to 6% of gross self-storage rental revenues based on specified performance levels. During fiscal year 2005, U-Haul earned $1.0 million in management fees from Mercury.

(Oxford) seeking compensatory and punitive damages for breach of contract, bad faith and unfair claims settlement practices arising from an alleged failure of Oxford to properly and timely pay a claim under a disability and dismemberment policy. On March 22, 2002, the jury returned a verdict of $5 million in compensatory damages and $34 million in punitive damages. On November 5, 2002, the trial court entered an Order affirming the $39 million jury verdict and denying Oxford’s motion for New Trial Or, in The Alternative, Remittitur. Oxford appealed the case to the West Virginia Supreme Court. On June 17, 2004 the West Virginia Supreme Court r eversed and vacated the punitive damages award and remanded the case for a new trial on punitive damages. On July 15, 2004 Oxford filed a petition for a re-hearing with the West Virginia Supreme Court on the matter of compensatory damages and on September 9, 2004 the West Virginia Supreme Court denied the petition. The Company has accrued for this potential loss. The new trial on punitive damages is set for April 8, 2005. The Company has notified its E & O carrier of the West Virginia Supreme Court’s ruling.

On December 24, 2002, Paul F. Shoen filed a derivative action in the ThirdSecond Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Washoe County, captioned Paul F. Shoen vs. SAC Holding Corporation et al., CV02-05602, seeking damages and equitable relief on behalf of AMERCO from SAC Holdings and certain current and former members of the AMERCO Board of Directors, including Edward J. Shoen, Mark V. Shoen and James P. Shoen as defendants. AMERCO is named a nominal defendant for purposes of the derivative action. The complaint alleges breach of fiduciary duty, self-dealing, usurpation of corporate opportunities, wrongful interference with prospective economic advantage and unjust enrichment and seeks the unwinding of sales of self-storage properties by subsidiaries of AMERCO to SAC Holdings over the last severalin prior years. Th eThe complaint seeks a declaration that such transfers are void as well as unspecified damages. On October 28, 2002, AMERCO, the Shoen directors, the non-Shoen directors and SAC Holdings filed Motions to Dismiss the complaint. In addition, on October 28, 2002, Ron Belec filed a derivative action in the ThirdSecond Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Washoe County, captioned Ron Belec vs. William E. Carty, et al., CV 02-06331 and on January 16, 2003, M.S. Management Company, Inc. filed a derivative action in the ThirdSecond Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, Washoe County, captioned M.S. Management Company, Inc. vs. William E. Carty, et al., CV 03-00386. Two additional derivative suits were also filed against these parties. These additional suits are substantially similar to the Paul F. Shoen derivative action. The five suits assert virtually identical claims. In fact, three of the five plaintiffs are parties who are working closely together and chose to file the same claims multiple times. The cour t consolidated all five complaints before dismissing them on May 28, 2003. Plaintiffs appealed and the appeal has been fully briefed before the Nevada Supreme Court. These lawsuits falsely alleged that the AMERCO Board lacked independence. In reaching its decision to dismiss these claims, the court determined that the AMERCO Board of Directors had the requisite level of independence required in order to have these claims resolved by the Board. The court consolidated all five complaints before dismissing them on May 28, 2003. Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court and the Court has set an oral argument for September 12, 2005.

Environmental
 
In the normal course of business, AMERCO is a defendant in a number of suits and claims. AMERCO is also a party to several administrative proceedings arising from state and local provisions that regulate the removal and/or cleanup of underground fuel storage tanks. It is the opinion of management that none of these suits, claims or proceedings involving AMERCO, individually or in the aggregate, are expected to result in a material loss.
 
Compliance with environmental requirements of federal, state and local governments significantly affects Real Estate’s business operations. Among other things, these requirements regulate the discharge of materials into the water, air and land and govern the use and disposal of hazardous substances. Real Estate is aware of issues regarding hazardous substances on some of its properties. Real Estate regularly makes capital and operating expenditures to stay in compliance with environmental laws and has put in place a remedial plan at each site where it believes such a plan is necessary. Since 1988, Real Estate has managed a testing and removal program for underground storage tanks. Under this program we have spent approximately $44 million.
 
Based upon the information currently available to Real Estate, compliance with the environmental laws and its share of the costs of investigation and cleanup of known hazardous waste sites are not expected to have a material adverse effect on AMERCO’s financial position or operating results. Real Estate expects to spend approximately $8.7 million through 2011 to remediate these properties.

Of this amount, $75.1 million is with SAC Holding II Corporation and eliminates in consolidation.
Interest accrues on the outstanding principal balance of junior notes of SAC HoldingsHolding II that the Company holds at a stated rate of basic interest. A fixed portion of that basic interest is paid on a monthly basis.
Additional interest is paid on the same payment date based on the amount of remaining basic interest and of the cash flow generated by the underlying property. This amount is referred to as the “cash flow-based calculation.”
To the extent that this cash“cash flow-based calculation exceeds the amount of remaining basic interest, contingent interest is paid on the same monthly date as the fixed portion of basic interest. To the extent that the cash flow-based calculationcalculation” is less than the amount of remaining basic interest, the additional interest payable on the applicable monthly date is limited to the amount of that cash“cash flow-based calculation. In such a case, the excess of the remaining basic interest over the cash“cash flow-based calculationcalculation” is defe rred.deferred and all amounts so deferred bear the stated rate of basic interest until maturity of the junior note. For the note with SAC Holding II Corporation and for certain notes with specified subsidiaries of SAC Holding Corporation, to the extent that this “cash flow-based calculation” exceeds the amount of remaining basic interest, contingent interest is paid on the same monthly date as the fixed portion of basic interest. In addition, subject to certain contingencies, the juniornote with SAC Holding II Corporation and certain notes with SAC Holding Corporation provide that the holder of the note is entitled to receive 90% of theparticipate in any appreciation realized upon, among other things, the sale of such propertycertain properties by SAC Holdings.

The five identifiable segments are AMERCO, U-Haul International, Amerco Real Estate, Republic Western Insurance, and Oxford Life Insurance.U-Haul moving and storage, Real Estate, and SAC moving and storage, are listed under Moving and Self-Storage, since they meet the aggregation criteria of FASB 131.


Overall Strategy
 
Our planoverall strategy is to maintain our leadership position in the North American “do-it-yourself” moving and storage industry. Our overall strategy isWe plan to provideaccomplish this by providing a seamless and integrated supply chain to the “do-it-yourself” moving and storage market. As part of executing this strategy, we leverage the brand recognition of U-Haul with our full line of moving and self-storage related products and services and the convenience of our broad geographic presence.
 
Our primary focus is to provide our customers with a wide selection of moving rental equipment, convenient self-storage rental facilities and related moving and self-storage products and services. We are able to expand our distribution and improve customer service by increasing the amount of moving equipment and storage rooms available for rent, expanding the number of independent dealers in our network and expanding and taking advantage of our growing eMove capabilities.
 
Oxford’s business strategy is long-term capital growth through direct writing and reinsuring of annuity, credit life and disability, and Medicare supplement products. Oxford is pursing this growth strategy through increased direct writing via acquisitions of insurance companies, expanded distribution channels and product development.
During fiscal year 2004,2003, RepWest decided to focus its activities on providing and administering property and casualty insurance to U-Haul, its customers, and its independent dealers and affiliates. We believe this will enable RepWest to focus its core competencies and financial resources to better support our overall strategy. This shiftstrategy by exiting its non-U-Haul lines ofbusiness.
Oxford’s business strategy is long-term capital growth through direct writing and reinsuring of annuity, life and Medicare supplement products. Oxford is pursuing this growth strategy of increased direct writing via acquisitions of insurance companies, expanded distribution channels and product development.
Description of Operating Segments
AMERCO has four reportable segments. Our segments are Moving and Storage Operations, Property and Casualty Insurance, Life Insurance and SAC Holding II.
Moving and Storage Operating Segment
Our Moving and Self-Storage Operating Segment consists of the rental of trucks, trailers and self-storage spaces to the household mover as well as sales of moving supplies, trailer hitches and propane. Operations are conducted under the registered trade name U-Haul® throughout the United States and Canada.
With respect to our truck, trailer and self-storage rental business, we are focused on expanding our dealer network, which provides added convenience for our customers and expanding the selection and availability of rental equipment to satisfy the needs of our customers.


With respect to our retail sales of product, U-Haul continues in directionits role as America’s leading hitch installer. Each year, more than one million customers visit our locations for expertise on complete towing systems, trailer rentals and the latest in towing accessories. In addition, U-Haul has resulteddeveloped specialty boxes to protect customers’ personal possessions including antiques, fine china, wine bottles, electronics, pictures and much more.
eMove is an online marketplace that connects consumers to over 5,000 independent sellers of moving help and self-storage services. Our network of customer rated service providers and affiliates provides pack and load help, self-storage and more all over North America. A phone access system was launched in near term lossesSeptember 2004 and has already serviced over 28,000 customers in less than nine months.
An individual or a company can connect to the eMove network by becoming a Moving Help® Service Provider or an eMove Storage Affiliate. Moving Help providers assist customers with packing, loading, cleaning and unloading their truck or storage unit. The Storage Affiliate program enables independent self-storage facilities to expand their reach by connecting into eMove and U-Haul’s moving and storage reservation system and for a fee, receive an array of services including web-based management software, S.O.A.R® rentals, co-branded rental trucks, savings on insurance, credit card processing and more. Over 2,800 facilities are now registered on the eMove network.
With over 43,000 unedited reviews of service providers, the marketplace has facilitated over 60,000 moving and storage transactions all over North America. We believe that acting as an intermediary, with little added investment, serves the customer in a cost effective manner.

RepWest also provides components of the Safemove, Safetow and Safestorprotection packages to U-Haul customers. We continue to focus on increasing the penetration of these products. The business plan for RepWest includes offering property and casualty products in other U-Haul related programs.
Life Insurance Operating Segment
Oxford originates and reinsures annuities, ordinary life, group life and disability coverage, and Medicare supplement insurance. Oxford also administers the self-insured employee health and dental plans for AMERCO.
SAC Holdings Operating Segment
SAC Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries, and SAC Holding II Corporation (“SAC Holding II”) and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as “SAC Holdings”, own self-storage properties that are managed by U-Haul under property management agreements. AMERCO, through its subsidiaries, has contractual interests in certain of SAC Holdings’ properties entitling AMERCO to potential future income based on the financial performance of these properties. With respect to SAC Holding II Corporation, AMERCO is considered the primary beneficiary of these contractual interests. Consequently, we include the results of SAC Holdings II Corporation in the consolidated financial statements of AMERCO, as required by FIN 46(R).
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies can have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements. Some of ourAccounting policies are considered critical when they are significant and involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. Certain accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The accounting estimatespolicies that we deem most critical to us and that require management’s most difficult and subjective judgments include our principles of consolidation, the recoverability of property, plant and equipment, the adequacy of insurance reserves, and the valuationrecognition and measurement of investments. Below, weimpairments for investments, and the recognition and measurement of income tax assets and liabilities.


We discuss these policies further in the following sections, as well as the estimates and judgments that are involved. The estimates are based on historical experience, observance of trends in particular areas, information and valuations available f romfrom outside sources and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. Such differences may be material.
 
Accounting policies are considered critical when they are significant and involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. The accounting policies that we deem most critical to us, and involve the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments include the following:
Principles of Consolidation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements for the third quarter and first nine monthsquarters of fiscal year2006 and fiscal 2005 and the balance sheet as of March 31, 2004 includes2005, include the accounts of AMERCO, its wholly owned subsidiaries and SAC Holding II Corporation and its subsidiaries (“SAC Holding II”).



subsidiaries.
 
In fiscal 2003 and fiscal 2002, SAC Holding Corporation and SAC Holding II (together, the “SAC entities”Holdings”) were considered special purpose entities and were consolidated based on the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 90-15. For fiscal 2003, AMERCO reported consolidated revenue of $216.8 million, a net loss of $8.7 million, assets of $990 million, and liabilities and shareholder’s equity of $1,035.1 million and $(45.1) million, respectively, for SAC Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries and SAC Holding II.
In fiscal 2004, the Company applied Financial Interpretation No. 46R46(R) (“FIN 46(R)”) to its interests in the SAC entities.Holdings. Initially, the Company concluded that the SAC entitiesHoldings were variable interest entities (VIE’s) and that the Company was the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the Company continued to include the SAC enti tiesHoldings in its consolidated financial statements.
Under the provisions of FIN 46R,46(R), certain changes in the operations of a variable interest entity or its relationship with the primary beneficiary constitute a re-determination eventevents and require a reassessment of the variable interest on the basis of the most current facts and circumstances to determine whether or not a company is a variable interest entity, which other company(s) have a variable interest in the variable interest entity and whether or not the reporting company’s variable interest in such variable interest entity make it the primary beneficiary. These determinations and re-determinations require that assumptions be made to estimate the value of the variable interest entity and a judgment be made as to whether or not the variable interest entity has the financial strength to fund its own operations and execute its business plan without the subordinated financial support of another company.
 
In February, 2004, SAC Holding Corporation restructured the indebtedness of three subsidiaries and then distributed its interest in those subsidiaries to its sole shareholder. This triggered a requirement to reassess AMERCO’s involvement with those subsidiaries, which led to the conclusion that based on the most current contractual and ownership interests between AMERCO and this entity, AMERCO ceased to have a variable interest in those three subsidiaries at that date.
Separately, in March 2004, SAC Holding Corporation restructured its indebtedness, triggering a similar reassessment of SAC Holding Corporation that led to the conclusion that SAC Holding Corporation was not a VIE and that AMERCO ceased to be the primary beneficiary of SAC Holding Corporation and its remaining subsidiaries,subsidiaries. This conclusion was based on SAC Holding Corporation’s ability to fund its own op erationsoperations and execute its business plan without any future subordinated financial support.
Accordingly, at the dates AMERCO ceased to have a variable interest andin or ceased to be the primary beneficiary of SAC Holding Corporation and its current or former subsidiaries, it deconsolidated those entities. The deconsolidation was accounted for as a distribution of AMERCO’s interests to the sole shareholder of the SAC entities. Because of AMERCO’s continuing involvement with SAC Holding Corporation and its current and former subsidiaries, the distributions do not qualify as discontinued operations as defined by SFAS No. 144.
 
Inter-company accounts and transactionsIt is possible that SAC Holding Corporation could take actions that would require us to re-determine whether SAC Holding Corporation has become a VIE or whether we have been eliminated.become the primary beneficiary of SAC Holding Corporation. Should this occur, we could be required to consolidate some or all of SAC Holding Corporation with our financial statements.
Similarly, SAC Holding II Corporation could take actions that would require us to re-determine whether it is a VIE or whether we continue to be the primary beneficiary of our variable interest in SAC Holding II Corporation. Should we cease to be the primary beneficiary, we would be required to de-consolidate some or all of our variable interest in SAC Holding II Corporation from our financial statements.


 
Recoverability of Property, Plant and Equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Interest cost incurred during the initial construction of buildings or rental equipment is considered part of cost. Depreciation is computed for financial reporting purposes principally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: rental equipment 2-20 years and buildings and non-rental equipment 3-55 years. Major overhauls to rental equipment are capitalized and are amortized over the estimated period benefited. Routine maintenance costs are charged to operating expense as they are incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions of property, plant and equipment are netted against depreciation expense when realized. Depreciation is recognized in amounts expected to result in the recovery of estimated residual values upon disposal, i.e., no ga insgains or losses. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company lowered its estimates for residual values on rental trucks purchased off leases from 25% of the original cost to 20%. In determining the depreciation rate, historical disposal experience, holding periods and trends in the market for vehicles are reviewed. Since this change in estimated residual values will be applied prospectively we do not anticipate any significant increases in depreciation expense from this change for the current fiscal year.
 
We regularly perform reviews to determine whether facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the carrying amount of assets, including estimates of residual value, may not be recoverable or that the useful life of assets is shorter or longer than originally estimated. We assess the recoverability of our assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. If assets are determined to be recoverable, but the useful lives are shorter or longer than originally estimated, the net book value of the assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining useful lives.



 
Insurance Reserves
 
Liabilities for life insurance and certain annuity policies are established to meet the estimated future obligations of policies in force, and are based on mortality and withdrawal assumptions from recognized actuarial tables which contain margins for adverse deviation. Liabilities for annuity contracts consist of contract account balances that accrue to the benefit of the policyholders, excluding surrender values.charges. Liabilities for health, disability and other policies represents estimates of payments to be made on insurance claims for reported losses and estimates of losses incurred, but not yet reported.
Insurance reserves for RepWest and U-Haul take into account losses incurred based upon actuarial estimates. These estimates are based on past claims experience and current claim trends as well as social and ec onomiceconomic conditions such as changes in legal theories and inflation. Due to the nature of underlying risks and the high degree of uncertainty associated with the determination of the liability for future policy benefits and claims, the amounts to be ultimately paid to settle liabilities, cannot be precisely determined and may vary significantly from the estimated liability.
 
A consequence of the long tail nature of the assumed reinsurance and the excess workers compensation lines of insurance that were written by RepWest is that it takes a number of years for claims to be fully reported and finally settled. Also, the severity of the commercial transportation and the commercial multiple peril programs can fluctuate unexpectedly. During 2004 and 2003 these lines experienced an increase in claim severity that was materially different than the previous year’s actuarial estimations.
Investments
 
For investments accounted for under SFAS No. 115, in determining if and when a decline in market value below amortized cost is other than temporary, quoted market prices, dealer quotes or discounted cash flows are reviewed. Other-than-temporary declines in value are recognized in the current period operating results to the extent of the decline.


 
Key Accounting Policies
 
We also have other policies that we consider key accounting policies, such as revenue recognition; however, these policies do not meet the definition of critical accounting estimates, because they do not generally require us to make estimates or judgments that are difficult or subjective.

During the first quarter of this year, we sold 78 self-storage propertiesfiscal 2006, self-moving equipment rentals increased $11.5 million through steady increases in transaction volume, modest price increases and improved mix of trucks. Storage revenues at Company owned locations increased for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to U.H. Storage DE,fiscal 2005 as a W.P.result of increase in the number of rooms available for rent, higher occupancy rates and modest price increases. These gains were offset by reductions in storage revenues resulting from the W. P. Carey affiliate (See Footnote 9Transactions (see note 3 to the “Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for a more detailed discussion of the W.P.W. P. Carey Transaction)Transactions). This reduced storage revenues approximately $8.1Sales of self-moving and self-storage related products and services increased $5.2 million following our growth in the third quarter of fiscal year 2005, compared with the third quarter of last year. Movingmoving equipment rentals and storage revenues at U-Haul, adjusted for the effectrental revenues. Property management fees increased $1.5 million as a result of the W.P. Carey Transaction, increased approximately 4% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2005, compared with the same period a year ago. Also, we deconsolidated 281 SAC Holding Corporation s torage properties during the fourth quarter of last year, and they are excluded from our fiscal year 2005 results. Included in the third quarter of last year were $26.5 million of revenues for these deconsolidated properties. Revenues at Transactions.
RepWest were $16.6 million lower in the third quarter of this year compared with the same period a year ago. This decline reflects the impact of our strategycontinued to exit unprofitable non U-Haul related lines of business. At Oxford, revenue decreased in the third quarter by 8%,business and as a result, its premium revenues declined approximately $5.0 million. Oxford’s premium revenues declined approximately $3.7 million primarily as a result of the lingering effects of its rating downgrade by A. M.A.M. Best in 2003.

Total costs and expenses fell by $14.9 million primarily as a result of reduced equipment-related and lease expenses, professional fees, and decreased risk exposure at the insurance subsidiaries. The decrease in total expenses was partially offset by increased depreciation expense, commissions and cost of sales resulting from higher revenues.
As a result of the above mentioned changes in revenues and expenses, earnings from operations improved to $112.6 million in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal year 20052006 compared with a loss of $1.0$91.2 million for the same period last year. Earnings from operations, at U-Haul were $3.7 million in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal year 2005. This reflects an increase of $14.1 million, compared with the third quarter of fiscal year 2004, and is attributable to stronger truck and trailer rentals and to the timing of recognizing current year insurance expense to better match revenues with expenses. Losses from operations at Oxford were $3.4 million in the third quarter of this year, compared with earnings of $4.4 million in the third quarter of last year. The decrease is primarily due to the accrual for the Kocher litigation (see Footnote 10 for a more complete discussion of this loss contingency) as well as the continuing slow down in premiums resulting from lost distributions following Oxford’s rating downgrade by A. M. Best in 2003. At RepWest, the run-off of our non-U-Haul insurance business is progressing as planned. Losses related to the hurricanes that hit the southeastern U. S. of approximately $8.5 million, before taxes, were charged to earnings during the third quarter. As a result, losses from operations at RepWest were $9.2 million in the third quarter of this year, compared with a loss from operations of $7.4 million for the same period last year.
 
Interest expense for the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal year 20052006 was $16.9$55.3 million. This comparesIn addition, AMERCO recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 a one-time, nonrecurring charge of $35.6 million related to the early termination of existing indebtedness, which is consistent with $31.2$19.0 million in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal year 2004. The reduction in interest expense is due to the deconsolidation of SAC Holding Corporation, lower borrowings and lower borrowing costs. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company settled its litigation against its former auditor and received a settlement (net of attorney’s fees and costs) of $51.3 million before taxes.The settlement had the effect of increasing, on a non-recurring basis, net earnings and earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 by $32.5 million and $1.56, respectively. The Company does not expect to obtain any material sett lement or recovery in any other pending litigation matter.2005.

We used $348.1 million in net cash for financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal year 2005, compared with $35.6Earnings from operations were $4.1 million in the first nine monthsquarter of fiscal year 2004. The major financing use of cash was to pay down borrowings under our revolving credit agreement ($1822006 compared with $3.1 million in fiscal year 2005 and $56 million in fiscal year 2004) and to pay off $100 millionthe first quarter of capital leases related to the W. P. Carey Transaction in fiscal year 2005.
 
Additional financing uses of cash in the first nine months of fiscal year 2005 included payments of dividends. In November 2004, our Board of Directors approved the payment of all dividend arrearages on our Series A Preferred Stock. Regular quarterly cash dividends have been paid on a current basis since February 2004. Therefore, our dividend payments were $25 million higher in the first nine months of fiscal year 2005, compared with the first nine months of fiscal year 2004. Financing sources of cash were primarily borrowings under our revolving credit agreements ($37 million in fiscal year 2005Liquidity and $50 million in fiscal year 2004).Capital Resources
 
We believe our current capital structure will allow us to achieve our operational plans and goals, support our preferred stock dividend program and provide us with sufficient liquidity for the next 3-53 to 5 years. The majority of our debtthe obligations currently in place mature either at the end of fiscal year 2009. The senior subordinated notes mature at the end of fiscal year 2011.years 2010 or 2015. As a result, we believe that our liquidity is strong. This will allow us to focus on our operations and business to further improve our liquidity in the long term. We believe these improvements will enhance our future access to capital markets. However, there is no assurance that future cash flows will be sufficient to meet our outstanding obligations or our future capital needs. Also,
At June 30, 2005, cash and cash equivalents totaled $229.5 million, compared with $56.0 million on March 31, 2005.

We used $34.8 million in net cash from investing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2006, whereas in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 we generated cash from investing activities of $145.1 million provided in the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. The majority of the decrease in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2005 was related to incur additional indebtednessthe W. P. Carey Transactions. Gross capital expenditures were $75.4 million and other obligations.$62.3 million for the first quarters of fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. Capital dispositions were $15.1 million and $184.2 million for the first quarters of fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Financing activities provided $158.6 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. This compares with usage of $233.8 million from financing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The primary reason for the increase in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the first quarter of 2005 is the completion of the new financing.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources and Requirements of Our Operating Segments
 
Moving and Self-Storage
 
To meet the needs of our customers, U-Haul maintains a large fleet of rental equipment. Historically, capital requirementsexpenditures have primarily reflected new rental equipment acquisitions. The capital required to fund these requirementsexpenditures has historically been obtained through internally generated funds from operations and externally from lease financing and sales of used equipment. Going forward, we anticipate that a substantial portion of our internally generated funds will be used to enhance liquidity by paying down existing indebtedness. During each of the fiscal years ended March 31, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2007,2008, U-Haul estimates that net capital expenditures will average approximately $150$150.0 million to maintain ourits fleet at current levels. Financial covenants contained in our loan agreements limit the amount of capital expenditures we can make in fisc al years 2005, 2006, and 2007, net of dispositions, to $185 million, $245 million and $195 million, respectively. Management estimates that U-Haul will fund its fleet expansion requirements from leasing and from the proceeds from the sale of trucks. We intend to focus our growth on expanding our independent dealer network, which does not require a substantial amount of capital resources. Gross capital outlaysexpenditures were $170$75.2 million but were netted against proceeds, producing a net capital outlayfor the first quarter of $55.3 million, the majority of which reflects the cost of residual lease buy outs.fiscal 2006.
 
Real Estate has traditionally financed the acquisition of self-storage properties to support U-Haul’s growth through lease and debt financing. U-Haul’s growth plan in self-storage is focused on eMove, which does not require acquisition or construction of self-storage properties by the Company. Therefore, we do not anticipate that Real Estate will not require substantial capital for its future plans.

As of September 30, 2004, OxfordAt March 31, 2005, RepWest had no notes and loans payabledue in less than one year and its accounts payable and accrued expenses were $5.2 million. RepWest financial assets (cash, receivables, inventories, and short-term investments) at the end of the first quarter, were $360.1 million. State insurance regulations restrict the amount of dividends that can be paid to stockholders of insurance companies. As a result, RepWest’s funds are generally not available to satisfy the claims of AMERCO or its legal subsidiaries.
Stockholder’s equity was $155.0 million and $154.8 million at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. RepWest does not use debt or equity issues to increase capital and therefore has no exposure to capital market conditions.

As of March 31, 2005, Oxford is due to make a $1.0 million principal payment to AMERCO on an inter-company surplus note issued in 1998; Oxford had no other notes and loans payable in less than one year. Its accounts payable and accrued expenses total $1.7approximately $7.0 million. Oxford’s financial assets (cash, receivables, short-term investments, other investments and fixed maturities, and related party assets)maturities) at September 30, 2004March 31, 2005 were approximately $785.9$749.1 million. State insurance regulations restrict the amount of dividends that can be paid to stockholders of insurance companies. As a result, Oxford’s funds are generally not available to satisfy the claims of AMERCO or its legal subsidiaries.

Oxford's primary sources of cash are premiums, receipts from interest-sensitive products, and investment income. The primary uses of cash are operating costs and benefit payments to policyholders. Matching the investment portfolio to the cash flow demands of the types of insurance being written is an important consideration. Benefit and claim statistics are continually monitored to provide projections of future cash requirements.




Cash provided by operating activitieswas $7.8 million and $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Cash flows used by financing activities were $59.6 million and $36.0 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Cash flows from deferred annuity sales are a component of financing activities. Investment contract deposits increase cash flows while surrenders of these policies are a use of funds. The decrease in investment contract deposits over 2003 is due to a reduction in new contract sales and an increase in contract surrenders; both due to Oxford’s decreased ratings.
In addition to cash flows from operating and financing activities, a substantial amount of liquid funds is available through Oxford's short-term portfolio. At September 30, 2004 and 2003, short-term investments amounted to $100.2 million and $122.9 million, respectively. Management believes that the overall sources of liquidity will continue to meet foreseeable cash needs.
 
Oxford’s stockholder'sstockholder’s equity was $119.1$112.8 million, $115.0 million as of March 31, 2005, and $117.2 million at September 30,December 31, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Increases from earnings were offset by decreases in unrealized gains resulting from the change in interest rates.
 
Applicable laws and regulations of the State of Arizona require the Company's insurance subsidiaries to maintain minimum capital and surplus determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices. With respect to Oxford, the amount is $0.4 million. In addition, the amount of dividends that can be paid to shareholders by insurance companies domiciled in the State of Arizona is limited. Any dividend in excess of the limit requires prior regulatory approval. At September 30, 2004, Oxford cannot distribute any of its statutory surplus as dividends without regulatory approval. These restrictions are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company to meet its cash obligations.

The cash used by operating activities iswas the result of RepWest’s exiting its non Self-Storage and Self-Moving lines and the associated reduction of reserves in the lines exited.
RepWest’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment portfolio were $98.3 million and $90.3 million at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. This balance includes funds in transition from maturity proceeds to long term investments. We believe that this level of liquid assets, combined with budgeted cash flow, is adequate to meet periodic needs. Capital and operating budgets allow RepWest exiting the assumed reinsuranceto schedule cash needs in accordance with investment and non U-Haul related lines. As RepWest adjudicates the claims in these lines there will be a continued use of its portfolio and a corresponding decrease in insurance reserves.underwriting proceeds.
 
SummaryLife Insurance
Cash flows provided (used) by operating activities were $(6.0) million and $9.5 million, for the first quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Included in the operating cash out-flow was the $12.8 million settlement of the Kocher litigation, net of the $2.2 million recovery from Oxford’s errors and omissions insurance carrier.
In addition to cash flows from operating activities and financing activities, a substantial amount of liquid funds is available through Oxford’s short-term portfolio. At March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, short-term investments amounted to $65.1million and $113.8 million, respectively. Management believes that the overall sources of liquidity will continue to meet foreseeable cash needs.
SAC Holding II
Cash provided by operating activities at SAC Holding II was $0.9 million and $0.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The primary source of cash in fiscal 2006 was a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The primary use of cash in fiscal 2005 was the deconsolidation of SAC Holding Corporation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources-Summary
 
We believe we have the financial resources needed to meet our business requirements including capital expenditures for the expansion and modernization of our rental fleet, rental equipment and rental storage space, and working capital requirements.requirements and our preferred stock dividend program.

AMERCO usesused certain equipment and occupies certain facilities under operating lease commitments with terms expiring substantially through 2034 with the exception of one land lease expiring in 2079. In the event of a shortfall in proceeds from the sale of the underlying assets, AMERCO has guaranteed approximately $154.0$157.7 million of residual values at December 31, 2004June 30, 2005 for these assets at the end of the respective lease terms. AMERCO has been leasing equipment since 1987. Thus1987 and, thus far, we have experienced no residual value shortfalls.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
WeThe Company uses off-balance sheet arrangements where the economics and sound business principles warrant their use. The Company’s principal use of off-balance sheet arrangements occurred in connection with the expansion of our self-storage business. The Company currently managemanages the self-storage properties owned by SAC HoldingsHolding II and its affiliates, pursuant to a standard form of management agreement with each SAC HoldingsHolding II subsidiary and its affiliates, pursuant to which we receivethe Company receives a management fee ranging from 4% to 10% ofbased on the gross receipts from the properties plus reimbursement for certain expenses. We received management fees, from SAC Holdings, exclusive of expenses, of $9.0$0.7 million during the first nine monthsquarter of fiscal year 2005.2006. This management fee is consistent with the fees we received from unrelated parties for other properties we manage.have managed.
 
Certain subsidiaries of SAC HoldingsHolding II and its affiliates act as U-Haul independent dealers. The financial and other terms of the dealership contracts with subsidiaries of SAC HoldingsHolding II and its affiliates are substantially identical to the terms of those with our over 14,000 independent dealers. During the first nine monthsquarter of fiscal year 2005,2006, we paid subsidiaries of SAC Holdings $24.5Holding II $2.5 million in commissions pursuant to such dealership contracts.



 
During the first nine monthsquarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company leased space for marketing company offices, vehicle repair shops and hitch installation centers from subsidiaries of SAC Holdings. Total lease payments pursuant to such leases were $1.7 million. The terms of the leases are similar to the terms of leases for other properties owned by unrelated parties that are leased to the Company.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2005,2006, a subsidiary of the Company held various senior and junior unsecured notes of SAC Holdings. The Company recorded interest income of $16.3$5.4 million and received cash interest payments of $10.2$4.9 million during the first nine monthsquarter of fiscal year 2005.2006.
 
BusinessFiscal 2006 Outlook
 
AsWe have many exciting developments which we look ahead to the remainder ofbelieve should positively affect performance in fiscal year 2005, we2006. We believe the momentum in our Moving and Storage Operations will continue. We are investing strongly in our truck rental fleet to further strengthen U-Haul’s “do-it-yourself” moving business. We placed purchase orders last fall for 6,750 of our largest rental trucks and self-storage segments will continue, adjusted for the deconsolidation of SAC Holding Corporation and the W.P. Carey Transaction. During fiscal year 2004, we reported approximately $101.9 million of revenues, $26.5 million of earnings from operations, $37.8 million of interest expense, and a net loss of $8.6 million relatedexpect to the 281 SAC Holdings properties which were deconsolidated March 31, 2004. We reported approximately $29.2 million of storage revenues during fiscal year 2004 at the 78 self-storage properties that were recently sold to W.P. Carey (UH Storage DE).
U-Haulhave them fully in service by mid-August. This investment is expected to continueincrease the number of rentable truck days available to benefit from the initiatives mentioned earlier, including positive sales increasesmeet our customer’s demand and maintenancewill reduce future spending on repair costs and repair cost improvements associated with our fleet replacement program.equipment down-time.
 
At RepWest, our plans to exit non-U-Haul lines of business are progressing well.
At Oxford, isthe Kocher litigation settlement should produce improved ratings, which in turn should support the expansion of its distribution capabilities.
Also, we completed the refinancing of the Company’s debt on June 8, 2005. This action increased our borrowing capacity by more than $195.0 million and will reduce our effective borrowing rates. Additionally, the new debt increases our financial flexibility thus enabling us to complete the fleet investment plans outlined above. The early extinguishment of our existing debt resulted in a one time pre-tax charge of approximately $35.6 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2006.
Our objectives for fiscal 2006 are to position our rental fleet to achieve revenue and transaction growth and continue to drive down operating costs.


Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. We may make additional written or oral forward-looking statements from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise. We believe such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, projections of revenues, income or loss, estimates of capital expenditures, plans for future operations, products or services, the adequacy of our financial resources and related financing needs and plans estimated interest savings from our recent debt refinancing; the amount and timing of fleet acquisition; that the Kocher settlement will prompt in improving insurance ratings, our perceptions of our legal positions and anticipated outcomes of government investigations and pending litigation against us, liquidity, goals and strategies, plans for new business, growth rate assumptions, pricing, costs, and access to capital and leasing markets as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. The words “believe,”“expect,”“anticipate,”“estimate,”“project” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Factors that could significantly affect results include, without limitation, the risk factors enumerated at the end of this section, as well as the following: the Company’s ability to operate pursuant to the terms of its credit facilities;  the Company’s ability to maintain contracts that are critical to its operations; the costs and availability of financing; the Company’s ability to execute its business plan; the Company’s ability to attract, motivate and retain key employees; general economic conditions; fluctuations in our costs to maintain and update our fleet and facilities; our ability to refinance our debt; changes in government regulations, particularly environmental regulations; our credit ratings; the availability of credit; changes in demand for our products; changes in the processgeneral domestic economy; degree and nature of rebuilding its distribution that was impactedour competition; the resolution of pending litigation against the Company; changes in accounting standards and other factors described in this report or the other documents we file with the Securities Exchange Commission. The above factors, the following disclosures, as well as other statements in this report and in the “Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”, could contribute to or cause such differences, or could cause our stock price to fluctuate dramatically. Consequently, the forward-looking statements should not be regarded as representations or warranties by the AMERCO restructuring. Prior to the restructuring, Oxford was rated B++ by A.M. Best. The rating was reduced to C+ during the restructuring. In March 2004 the rating was upgraded to B-. In October 2004, the rating was upgraded to B with a continued positive outlook. Continued improvement in the ratingCompany that such matters will be a key factor in the success of Oxford’s marketing programs including annuities, life insurance, Medicare supplement, and credit life and disability. Oxford’s statutory capital measurements continuerealized. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to strengthen and existing business is expected to continue to perform profitably.
RepWest expects to realize the benefits of its changed business plan. During fiscal 2004, we successfully discontinued the majorityupdate or revise any of the unprofitable direct and assumed reinsurance lines. U-Haul related lines have historically been profitable and we expectforward-looking statements, whether in response to see the results of the new business plan during fiscal year 2005. We believe that RepWest’s statutory capital measurements will continue to strengthen as the reserves of the discontinued lines are being run off. We are working with the Arizona Department of Insurance regarding the supervision order and expect it to be resolved in the future.
The Company has variable interests in variable interest entities. We have adopted FIN 46R, Accounting for Variable Interest Entities, effective with the March 2004 reporting period. At that time and based on changes made by SAC Holding Corporation, we no longer were considered the primary beneficiary of this variable interest entityinformation, unforeseen events, changed circumstances or its subsidiaries, and we deconsolidated SAC Holding Corporation effective with the March 2004 reporting period. SAC Holding II is a variable interest entity and we are its primary beneficiary. Consequently, we continue to consolidate SAC Holding II in our financial statements.
It is possible that SAC Holding Corporation could take actions that would require us to re-determine whether we have become the primary beneficiary of SAC Holding Corporation. Should this occur, we could be required to re-consolidate some or all of SAC Holding Corporation with our financial statements. Similarly, SAC Holding II could take actions that would require us to re-determine whether we continue to be the primary beneficiary of our variable interest in SAC Holding II. Should we cease to be the primary beneficiary, we would be required to de-consolidate some or all of our variable interest in SAC Holding II from our financial statements.

Competition is generally based on price, productconvenience of rental locations, availability of quality convenience, availability, brand name recognitionrental moving equipment, breadth of essential services and service.price. In our truck rental business, we face competition from Budget Car and Truck Rental Company and Penske Truck Leasing. Some of our competitors may have greater financial resources than we have. We cannot assure you that we will not be forced to reduce our rental prices or delay price increases.
 
The self-storage industry is large and highly fragmented. We compete with nationalbelieve the principle competitive factors in this industry are convenience of storage rental locations, cleanliness, security and regionalprice. Our primary competitors in the self-storage operators as well as local operators.market are Public Storage, Shurgard, Storage USA and others. Competition in the market areas in which we operate is significant and affects the occupancy levels, rental ratessales and operating expenses of our facilities. Competition might cause us to experience a decrease in occupancy levels, limit our ability to increaseraise rental ratessales and compelrequire us to offer discounted rental rates which couldthat would have a material adverse effectaffect on our operating results.
 
Entry into the self-storage business through acquisition of existing facilities is possible for persons or institutions with the required initial capital. Development of new self-storage facilities is more difficult,difficult; however, due to zoning, environmental and other regulatory requirements. The self-storage industry has in the past experienced overbuilding in response to perceived increases in demand. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete in existing markets or expand into new markets.


 
Control of AMERCO remains in the hands of a small contingent.
 
As of December 31, 2004,June 30, 2005, Edward J. Shoen, Chairman of the Board of Directors and President of AMERCO, James P. Shoen, a director of AMERCO, and Mark V. Shoen, an executive officer of AMERCO, collectively own 8,790,170control 8,890,224 shares (approximately 41.3%41.8%) of the outstanding common shares of AMERCO. Accordingly, Edward J. Shoen, Mark V. Shoen and James P. Shoen will be in a position to continue to influence the election of the members of the Board of Directors and approval of significant transactions. In addition, 2,192,4002,130,134 shares (approximately 10.3%10.0%) of the outstanding common shares of AMERCO, including shares allocated to employees and unallocated shares, are held by our Employee Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Trust.
 
Our operations subject us to numerous environmental regulations and the possibility that environmental liability in the future could adversely affect our operations.
 
Compliance with environmental requirements of federal, state and local governments significantly affects our business. Among other things, these requirements regulate the discharge of materials into the water, air and land and govern the use and disposal of hazardous substances. Under environmental laws, we can be held strictly liable for hazardous substances that are found on real property we have owned or operated. We are aware of issues regarding hazardous substances on some of our real estate and we have put in place a remedial plan at each site where we believe such a plan is necessary. We regularly make capital and operating expenditures to stay in compliance with environmental laws. In particular, we have managed a testing and removal program since 1988 for our underground storage tanks. Under this progr am, we spent $44.0 million between April 1988 and December 31, 2004. Despite these compliance efforts, risk of environmental liability is part of the nature of our business.
 
Environmental laws and regulations are complex, change frequently and could become more stringent in the future. We cannot assure you that future compliance with these regulations or future environmental liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
Our business is seasonal.
 
Our business is seasonal and our results of operations and cash flows fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. Historically, revenues have been stronger in ourthe first and second fiscal quarters due to the overall increase in moving activity during the spring and summer months. OurThe fourth fiscal quarter is generally weakest, when there is a greater potential for adverse weather conditions.
 
We obtain our rental trucks from a limited number of manufacturers.
 
In the pastlast ten years, we purchased mostall of our rental trucks from Ford and General Motors. Although we believe that we have alternative sources of supply for our rental trucks, termination of one or both of our relationships with these suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.



 
Our property and casualty insurance business has suffered extensive losses.
 
Since January 2000, our property and casualty insurance business, RepWest, reported losses totaling approximately $158.2$162.5 million. These losses are primarily attributable to business lines that were unprofitable as underwritten. To restore profitability in RepWest, we have exited all non-U-Haulnon U-Haul related lines and have strengthened the reserves on the lines being eliminated. Although we believe the terminated lines are adequately reserved, we cannot assure you that there will not be future adverse lossreserve development.
 
Our life insurance businesses have beenbusiness was downgraded by A.M. Best due to the events surrounding the restructuring.restructuring
 
During AMERCO’s restructuring in 2003, A.M. Best downgraded Oxford and its subsidiaries during the restructuring to C+. Upon AMERCO’s emergence from bankruptcy in March 2004, Oxford and its subsidiaries were upgraded to B-. The ratings were again upgraded in October 2004 to B. A.M. Best has indicated the rating outlook for our life insurance companies is positive. Prior to AMERCO’s restructuring, Oxford was rated B++. Financial strength ratings are important external factors that can affect the success of Oxford’s business plans. Accordingly, if Oxford’s ratings, relative to its competitors, do not continue to improve, Oxford may not be able to retain and attract business as currently planned.


 
Notes receivable from SAC Holdings are a significant portion of AMERCO’SAMERCO’s total assets.
 
At December 31, 2004,June 30, 2005, we held approximately $203.8$203.7 million of notes due from SAC Holdings. WeHoldings of which $75.1 million have been eliminated in the consolidating financial statements, we have significant economic exposure to SAC Holdings. SAC Holdings is highly leveraged with significant indebtedness to others. We hold various junior unsecured notes of SAC Holdings. If SAC Holdings is unable to meet its obligations to its senior lenders, it could trigger a default on its obligations to us. In such an event of default, we could suffer a significant loss.loss to the extent the value of the underlying collateral on our loans to SAC Holdings is inadequate to repay SAC Holdings senior lenders and us. We cannot assure you that SAC Holdings will not default on its loans to their senior lenders or that the value of SAC Holdings’Holdings assets upon liquidation would be sufficient to repay us in full.
 
We face risks related to an SEC investigation and securities litigation.
 
The SEC has issued a formal order of investigation to determine whether we have violated the federalFederal securities laws. Although we have cooperated with the SEC in this matter and intend to continue to cooperate, the SEC may determine that we have violated federalFederal securities laws. We cannot predict when this investigation will be completed or its outcome. If the SEC makes a determination that we have violated federalFederal securities laws, we may face sanctions, including, but not limited to, significant monetary penalties and injunctive relief.
 
In addition, the Company has been named a defendant in a number of class action and related lawsuits. The findings and outcome of the SEC investigation may affect the class-action lawsuits that are pending. We are generally obliged, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify our directors and officers who are named defendants in some of these lawsuits. We are unable to estimate what our liability in these matters may be, and we may be required to pay judgments or settlements and incur expenses in aggregate amounts that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
 




 
We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. To mitigate these risks, we may utilize derivative financial instruments, among other strategies. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
 
Interest rate riskRate Risk
 
The exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our variable rate debt obligations. InterestWe have used interest rate cap contracts represent non-linear derivative instruments which protectswap agreements to provide for matching the holder from risesgain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with recognition of the changes in short-term interest rates by making a paymentthe cash flows associated with the hedged asset or liability attributable to the holder when an underlyinghedged risk or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
The exposure to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates relates primarily to our Canadian business. Approximately 2%2.0% of our revenue is generated in Canada. The result of a 10%10.0% change in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar would not be material. We typically do not hedge any foreign currency risk since the exposure is not considered material.
 
Attached as exhibits to this Form 10-Q are certifications of AMERCO’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Accounting Officer (CAO), which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). This “Controls and Procedures” section includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure"disclosure controls and procedures”procedures" (Disclosure Controls) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. The controlsForm 10-Q. This evaluation was doneconducted under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO)our CEO and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
Definition of Disclosure Controls
CAO. Disclosure Controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, isForm 10-Q, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of theU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.Commission's (SEC's) rules and forms. Disclosure Controls include controls and proceduresare also designed to ensurereasonably assure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and the CFO,CAO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Disclosure Controls include components of our internal control over financial reporting which consists of control processes designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. To the extent that components of our internalInternal control over financial reporting are included withinis also separately evaluated on an annual basis for purposes of providing the management report which is set forth in our Form 10-K.
The evaluation of our Disclosure Controls they are included a review of the controls' objectives and design, the company's implementation of the controls and the effect of the controls on the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report.
In the scopecourse of the controls evaluation, we reviewed identified data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and sought to confirm that appropriate corrective actions, including process improvements, were being undertaken. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions of management, including the CEO and CAO, concerning the effectiveness of the Disclosure Controls can be reported in our periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K. Many of the components of our quarterly controls evaluation.



Disclosure Controls are also evaluated on an ongoing basis by our Internal Audit Department and by other personnel in our Finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our Disclosure Controls, and to modify them as necessary. Our intent is to maintain the Disclosure Controls as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.
 
Based upon the controls evaluation, our CEO and CAO have concluded that, subject to the limitations noted in this Item 4, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our Disclosure Controls were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC and that material information relating to AMERCO and its consolidated entities is made known to management, including the CEO and CAO, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being prepared.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
 
The company's management, of the Company, including the CEO and the CFO,CAO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error orand all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systemsystem's objectives will be met. Further, theThe design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. BecauseFurther, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Companycompany have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision makin gdecision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.


 
Scope of the Controls Evaluation
The evaluation of our Disclosure Controls included a review of the objectives and design of the controls, the implementation of the controls by the Company and the effect of the controls on the information generated for use in this Quarterly Report. In the course of the controls evaluation, we sought to identify data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, were being undertaken. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions of management, including the CEO and the CFO, concerning the effectiveness of the controls can be reported in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and to supplement our disclosures made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Many of the components of our Disclosure Controls are eva luated on an on-going basis by personnel in our finance department, as well as our independent auditors who evaluate them in connection with determining their auditing procedures related to their report on our annual financial statements. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our Disclosure Controls, and to modify them as necessary. Our intent is to maintain the Disclosure Controls as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.
Among other matters, we also considered whether our evaluation identified any “significant deficiencies” or “material weaknesses” in our internal control over financial reporting, and whether the Company had identified any acts of fraud involving personnel with a significant role in our internal control over financial reporting. This information was important both for the controls evaluation generally, and because item 5 of the certifications of the CEO and the CFO requires that the CEO and the CFO disclose that information to the Audit Committee of our Board and the independent auditors. In the professional auditing literature, “significant deficiencies” are referred to as “reportable conditions,” which are deficiencies in the design or operation of controls that could a dversely affect our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data in the financial statements. Auditing literature defines “material weakness” as a particularly serious reportable condition in which the internal control does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud may occur in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements and the risk that such misstatements would not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Based upon our evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls, management has concluded that there was a deficiency in the design and operation of internal controls that adversely affected our ability to record, process and summarize and report financial data related to the unreconciled intercompany balances with SAC Holding corporations. This deficiency was considered to be a material weakness under the standar ds established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. As a result of the conclusions discussed above, under the direction of the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors, we have taken corrective action to strengthen our internal controls and procedures to ensure information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and accurately reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. We also sought to address other controls matters in the controls evaluation, and in each case if a problem was identified, we considered what revision, improvement and/or correction to make in accordance with our on-going procedures.




Conclusions
Based upon the controls evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, subject to the limitations noted above, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Disclosure Controls were effective to provide assurance that material information relating to AMERCO and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to management, including the CEO and the CFO, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being prepared.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
During the fiscal quarter covered by this report we made no change in our internal control over financial reporting which materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
