Philadelphia, PA, August 5, 2003 — PMA Capital(NASDAQ: PMACA) today announced net income of $12.2 million, or 39 cents per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2003, compared with a net loss of $29.7 million, or 95 cents per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2002. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, we recorded net income of $22.9 million, or 73 cents per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $47.0 million, or $1.50 per diluted share for the same period last year.
Included in net income for the second quarter and the first six months of 2003 were after-tax net realized investment gains of $2.9 million, or 9 cents per diluted share, and $5.7 million, or 18 cents per diluted share, compared to after-tax net realized losses of $11.4 million, or 36 cents per diluted share, and $10.5 million, or 33 cents per diluted share, for the same periods last year. The realized losses in 2002 reflect impairment losses of $10.3 million after-tax on fixed income securities, including $9.2 million for WorldCom.
The net loss for the second quarter of 2002 included a charge of approximately $28 million after-tax ($43 million pre-tax) for costs to exit from and run off business written by the Run-off Operations (formerly known as the Caliber One operating segment) that we exited in May 2002. The net loss for
the first six months of 2002 also included prior year loss development of approximately $26 million after-tax ($40 million pre-tax) at the Run-off Operations in the first quarter of 2002.
Revenues
Revenues for the second quarter of 2003 and 2002 were $312.6 million and $284.1 million, respectively. For the first six months of 2003, revenues were $615.7 million, compared to $511.5 million for the same period in 2002. The 10% and 20% increase in revenues for the quarter and year-to-date periods reflect higher net premiums earned due to rate increases over the past few years. Additionally, pre-tax net realized investment gains were $4.5 million and $8.8 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, compared to pre-tax net realized investment losses of $17.6 million and $16.2 million for the same periods last year.
Written Premiums
For the second quarter of 2003, net written premiums were $290.7 million, compared to $302.5 million for the same period last year. For the first six months of 2003, net premiums written increased 9% to $641.5 million, compared to $591.1 million for the same period last year. Growth in written premiums for 2003 primarily reflects continued rate improvements throughout our commercial insurance and reinsurance businesses. Net premiums written for 2002 included approximately $44 million at PMA Re resulting from a change in the second quarter of 2002 of our estimate of ultimate premiums for the 2000 and 2001 underwriting years due to stronger than expected premium growth from our treaty ceding companies for those years.
Financial Condition
Total assets were $4.5 billion as of June 30, 2003, compared to $4.1 billion as of December 31, 2002. Shareholders’ equity was $617.7 million as of June 30, 2003, compared with $581.4 million as of December 31, 2002.
Book value per share was $19.72 as of June 30, 2003, compared with $18.56 as of December 31, 2002. Net unrealized gains on fixed maturities increased to $52.7 million after-tax, or $1.68 per share, as of June 30, 2003, compared to $33.3 million, or $1.06 per share at year-end 2002, reflecting the declining interest rate environment.
As of June 30, 2003, total outstanding debt was $176.3 million, compared to $151.3 million at December 31, 2002. In the second quarter of 2003, we sold $32.5 million of 30-year trust preferred securities and $57.5 million of 15-year senior notes. We used the net proceeds of approximately $87 million from these transactions primarily to repay $45 million outstanding under our bank credit facility and to increase the statutory capital and surplus of our reinsurance subsidiary.
Commenting on the company’s recent capital raising efforts, John W. Smithson, PMA Capital’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are very pleased that we have been able to continue to execute on our capital plan and significantly enhance the long-term nature of our capital base. Our debt to capital ratio now stands at 22% and we have no bank debt. We believe that we have the capital base to support our businesses in the continuing favorable underwriting environment. Although we believe our existing capital base will provide us with a strong platform to continue to participate in this favorable underwriting cycle, we will continue to monitor our capital structure in light of market opportunities in our businesses.”

Segment Operating Results
Operating income (loss), which we define as net income (loss) under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) excluding net realized investment gains and losses, is the financial performance measure used by our management and Board of Directors to evaluate and assess the results of our insurance businesses. Accordingly, we report operating income by segment in the disclosures required under SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” Our management and Board of Directors use operating income (loss) as the measure of financial performance for our insurance operations because (i) net realized investment gains and losses are unpredictable and not necessarily indicative of current operating fundamentals or future performance of the business segments and (ii) in many instances, decisions to buy and sell securities are made at the holding company level, and such decisions result in net realized gains and losses that do not relate to the operations of the individual segments. Operating income (loss) does not replace net income (loss) as the GAAP measure of our consolidated results of operations. A reconciliation of our operating results as discussed below to GAAP net income (loss) is provided below.

“We continue to see favorable market conditions characterized by firming and adequate pricing in our major lines of business. For many lines of business, 2003 represents the third round of price increases in as many years, with nearly every segment of the market experiencing three rounds of double-digit rate increases since 2000. So far in 2003, rate increases continue to be strong at The PMA Insurance Group, with our workers’ compensation business achieving 11% price increases and our other commercial lines going up by 16%. For PMA Re, premiums increased approximately 30% on Traditional-Treaty and Specialty-Treaty business that we renewed through the first half of 2003,” commented Smithson.
Smithson continued, “Our underwriting profitability improved due to the continued strong pricing environment reflected in the 2003 earned premium, which more than offset approximately $10 million of net reserve additions for prior accident years in the quarter. PMA Re’s combined ratio improved by more than three points to 97.0 for the second quarter of 2003, compared to the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2003 PMA Re’s combined ratio was 98.5, which is a 1.9-point improvement over the comparable result last year. Likewise, The PMA Insurance Group bettered an already impressive combined ratio by nearly two points, bringing the combined ratio down to 101.6 for the first half of 2003. Tempering the quarterly and year-to-date improvement in underwriting results was a lower amount of net investment income.”

PMA Re
PMA Re reported pre-tax operating income of $13.1 million and $21.7 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, compared to $13.8 million and $26.7 million for the same periods last year. Our performance relative to last year reflects improved underwriting results reflecting the firming market and good pricing that was more than offset by lower net investment income.
Net premiums written were $172.5 million and $331.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, compared with $209.0 million and $299.3 million for the same periods in 2002. Net premiums written for the second quarter and first six months of 2002 included approximately $44 million resulting from a change in our estimate of ultimate premiums written due to stronger than expected premium growth from our treaty ceding companies in the 2000 and 2001 underwriting years. In addition, net premiums written increased approximately 5% for the second quarter and 30% for the first six months of 2003, compared to the same periods last year. The year-to-date increase primarily reflects higher premiums in the Traditional and Specialty-Treaty units, driven mainly by rate increases. Such increases, as measured by the level of premium increase on renewed in-force business, averaged approximately 30% on PMA Re’s Traditional-Treaty and Specialty-Treaty products so far in 2003. Partially offsetting the increase was a decline in net premiums written by the Finite Risk and Financial Products unit, reflecting the effect of a new retrocessional contract.
The combined ratio on a GAAP basis was 97.0% and 98.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, compared with 100.3% and 100.4% for the same periods last year. The combined ratios for 2003 reflect the favorable effect of improved current accident year loss ratios, partially offset by net reserve additions of approximately six and one-half points for prior accident years, mainly 1999 and 2000.
Net investment income was $8.6 million and $17.0 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, compared with $14.1 million and $27.9 million for the same periods last year. The decline in net investment income is due to lower interest income on a growing invested asset base reflecting lower yields, and lower interest earned on funds held assets.
The PMA Insurance Group
The PMA Insurance Group reported pre-tax operating income of $6.8 million and $15.2 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, compared to $6.4 million and $12.8 million for the same periods last year. The increases are primarily due to improved underwriting results, partially offset by lower investment income.
Net premiums written increased 43% to $119.4 million for the second quarter of 2003, compared with $83.6 million for the second quarter of 2002. Net premiums written increased 21% to $313.7 million for the first six months of 2003, compared with $260.1 million for the comparable period last year. The growth in premiums primarily reflects improved pricing in all lines of insurance business underwritten by The PMA Insurance Group and, to a lesser extent, an increase in the volume of risks underwritten.
The combined ratio on a GAAP basis in 2003 was 101.9% for the second quarter and 101.6% for the first six months of 2003, both of which improved from the corresponding periods last year when the GAAP combined ratio was 103.1% and 103.4%, respectively.
4
Net investment income was $8.2 million and $16.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003, compared to $9.2 million and $18.0 million for the comparable periods of 2002. The declines in net investment income reflect lower invested asset yields, partially offset by a higher invested asset base.
Corporate and Other
The Corporate and Other segment includes unallocated investment income and expenses, including debt service. Corporate and Other recorded pre-tax operating losses of $5.6 million and $10.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, compared to pre-tax operating losses of $3.7 million and $8.0 million for the same periods last year. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 increased by $1.7 million and $2.9 million over the comparable periods last year, primarily due to a higher average amount of debt outstanding in 2003, compared with last year.
Since July 1, 2002, we have issued $176 million of new debt and we have retired our $65 million bank credit facility. In the fourth quarter of 2002, we sold $86.25 million of 4.25% convertible debt and in the second quarter of 2003, we sold $57.5 million of 8.50% senior notes and $32.5 million of trust preferred securities that bear interest at 6.75%.
Run-off Operations
In May 2002, we announced our decision to withdraw from the excess and surplus lines marketplace previously served by our Caliber One operating segment. As a result of the decision to exit this business, this segment’s results have been reported as Run-off Operations. The results for Run-off Operations were essentially breakeven for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003.
The Run-off Operations recorded a pre-tax operating loss of $44.4 million in the second quarter of 2002, which includes a charge of approximately $43 million pre-tax for costs to exit from and run off this business. For the first six months of 2002, pre-tax operating losses for the Run-off Operations were $87.5 million and included approximately $40 million for prior year loss development in the first quarter of 2002 principally related to certain casualty lines of business; and the $43 million charge to exit from and run-off this business.
Business Outlook
Our current expectation is that full year 2003 consolidated premiums for PMA Re and The PMA Insurance Group will increase by approximately 10-15% over 2002 levels. In addition, we expect that the consolidated combined ratio for full year 2003 at PMA Re and The PMA Insurance Group will be approximately equal to the combined ratio achieved in the first half of 2003. This reflects our expectation for continued strong results from the 2001, 2002 and 2003 underwriting years and our current view of the 1998 to 2000 business.
As we have experienced through the first six months of 2003, our invested asset base has grown as underwriting year premiums have been earned and collected. However, investment income is expected to be constrained in 2003 due to the low interest rate environment and the likelihood that interest rates will remain at these low levels through the end of 2003. We do not anticipate changing our current investment strategies due to the present interest rate environment.
5
Based on management’s current expectations, our estimated range of consolidated after-tax operating income for 2003 is between $1.40 and $1.50 per diluted share. Our range of estimated operating earnings per share for 2003 assumes that rate adequacy will continue; that loss trends run as expected, excluding catastrophes; and that recorded loss reserves for prior accident years are adequate. In addition, our earnings expectations reflect our current view of anticipated investment income in a lower interest rate environment. Our 2003 earnings per share estimate does not reflect any dilution from our 4.25% convertible senior debentures. If you were to assume conversion of this debt, then our earnings per share figures would be lower by about 10%.
We are unable to provide a reasonable estimate of the range of GAAP net income per share because this would require us to forecast net realized investment gains and losses, which are included in GAAP net income but excluded from operating income. Net realized investment gains were 18 cents per diluted share for the first half of 2003. We are unable to reasonably estimate net realized investment gains and losses for any future period, including the next six months, because they are unpredictable and not necessarily indicative of our current operating fundamentals or our future performance. In addition, in many instances, decisions to buy and sell securities are made for reasons unrelated to our operating businesses and are made at the holding company level in part due to credit concerns or overall changes in the fixed income markets.
The foregoing statements are forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially. Please see the Cautionary Statements that follow for the factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations.
Status of Business Outlook
Our corporate representatives authorized to speak on our behalf may meet privately during the quarter with investors, the media, investment analysts and others. At these meetings, our spokespersons may reiterate the Business Outlook published in this press release. At the same time, we will keep this press release, including this Business Outlook, publicly available on our website at www.pmacapital.com. Prior to the start of the Quiet Period (described below), the public can continue to rely on this Business Outlook as still being our current expectation on matters covered, unless we publish a press release stating otherwise.
Beginning on approximately October 16, 2003, we will observe a “Quiet Period” during which the Business Outlook as provided in this press release and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 no longer constitute management’s current expectations. During the Quiet Period, the Business Outlook in these documents should be considered historical, speaking as of prior to the beginning of the Quiet Period only and should not be relied upon. We expressly disclaim any current intention to update our Business Outlook during the Quiet Period. During the Quiet Period, our spokespersons will not comment on the Business Outlook or our financial results or expectations other than through a press release or other publicly available document. The Quiet Period will last until approximately October 30, 2003, which is when we currently expect to announce our third quarter 2003 results.
Quarterly Dividends
We also announced today that our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend on our Class A Common Stock of $0.105 per share to shareholders of record on September 17, 2003. The dividend will be paid on October 1, 2003. We have paid dividends to our shareholders every year since the company was formed in 1915.
