Exhibit 99.1
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 21, 2008
StanCorp Financial Group, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2008 Earnings
PORTLAND, Ore. — July 21, 2008 — StanCorp Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE: SFG) today reported net income for the second quarter of 2008 of $0.98 per diluted share, compared to $0.97 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2007. Net income for the same periods was $48.4 million and $52.1 million, respectively. After-tax net capital losses were $14.0 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to after-tax net capital gains of $0.4 million for the second quarter of 2007. After-tax net capital losses for the second quarter of 2008 primarily related to impairment write-downs of previously disclosed debt security holdings of bond insurers Ambac, Radian and MBIA.
Net income excluding after-tax net capital gains and losses increased 31.3% to $1.26 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $0.96 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2007 (see discussion of non-GAAP financial measures below). The increase reflected comparatively favorable claims experience for the group insurance businesses. In addition, diluted weighted-average shares were 49.4 million in the second quarter of 2008 compared to 53.7 million for the second quarter of 2007.
“We are pleased to see sustained strength in our Insurance Services and Asset Management segments,” said Eric E. Parsons, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “While asset impairments are never welcome, it was prudent to recognize the reduced market value of holdings related to three bond insurers. We had no material additions to our watchlist and our mortgage loan portfolio continues to perform well. In an uncertain economic environment, we continue to maintain our commitment to long-term financial success.”
Operating expenses were $115.8 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $105.7 million for the second quarter of 2007. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by business growth in the Insurance Services segment as evidenced by premium growth, as well as technology infrastructure costs related to the integration of acquired businesses in the Asset Management segment.
Year-to-Date
Net income for the first six months of 2008 was $2.00 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.86 per diluted share for the first six months of 2007. Net income for these same periods was $98.7 million and $100.4 million, respectively. After-tax net capital losses for the first six months of 2008 were $16.8 million, compared to after-tax net capital gains of $1.0 million for the first six months of 2007.
Net income excluding after-tax net capital gains and losses for the first six months of 2008 was $2.34 per diluted share, compared to $1.85 per diluted share for the first six months of 2007. The increase was primarily due to premium growth and comparatively favorable claims experience in the group insurance businesses. Premium growth for the Insurance Services segment between the comparative periods was 6.5%, and revenue growth for the Asset Management segment was 9.8%. In addition, diluted weighted-average shares were 49.4 million for the first six months of 2008 compared to 53.8 million for the first six months of 2007.
Guidance
For 2008, the Company expects:
| | • | | That its long-term target for return on average equity of 14% to 15% will be met or exceeded, |
| | • | | That its long-term target for earnings per diluted share growth of 12% to 15% will be achieved, and |
| | • | | That its premium growth will be at or below the low end of its previously stated 2008 range of 6% to 8%. |
The Company is maintaining its group insurance benefit ratio guidance of 77.5% to 79.5%. However, actual experience over the past four years indicates that the benefit ratio for 2008 could be at the lower end of the range.
The Company expects positive net cash flows in its asset management businesses but will not provide specific short-term guidance with regard to overall asset growth due to the current volatility in the equity markets.
The Company’s actual results for 2008 could differ from the ranges described above due to many factors. For more information about factors that may change the Company’s 2008 financial results, see Forward-Looking Information.
Business Segments
Insurance Services
The Insurance Services segment reported income before income taxes of $89.3 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $72.4 million for the second quarter of 2007. Results for the second quarter of 2008 were affected by premium growth and comparatively favorable claims experience in the group insurance businesses.
Premiums for the Insurance Services segment increased 4.1% to $534.0 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $512.9 million for the second quarter of 2007. Premiums for the second quarter of 2007 included a single premium of $19.3 million related to a reserve buyout. Adjusted for the 2007 reserve buyout, premium growth for the second quarter of 2008 was 8.2%.
Sales for group insurance products, reported as annualized new premiums, were $43.0 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $58.3 million for the second quarter of 2007. Adjusted for the 2007 reserve buyout, sales growth for the second quarter of 2008 was 10.3%.
The benefit ratio for group insurance products for the second quarter of 2008 was 74.4%, compared to 79.0% for the second quarter of 2007. Claims experience can fluctuate widely from quarter to quarter and tends to be more stable when measured over a longer period of time.
The discount rate used in the second quarter of 2008 for newly-established long term disability claim reserves was increased 25 basis points to 5.25% from the 5.00% used in the first quarter of 2008. The discount rate used in the second quarter of 2007 was 5.50%.
Asset Management
The Asset Management segment reported income before income taxes of $12.6 million for the second quarter of 2008 compared to $12.2 million for the second quarter of 2007. The increase primarily reflected the impact of increased revenues due to higher asset balances partially offset by increased expenses related to integration and infrastructure work in the retirement plans business.
Revenues for this segment increased 13.6% to $88.8 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $78.2 million for the second quarter of 2007.
Assets under administration for the Asset Management segment, which includes retirement plans, individual annuities and outside managed commercial mortgage loans, increased 8.3% to $22.19 billion at June 30, 2008 compared to June 30, 2007. The increase reflected growth in retirement plans customer deposits, individual annuities and mortgage loans under management partially offset by declines in market values of equity assets under administration.
StanCorp Mortgage Investors originated $380.5 million and $395.9 million of commercial mortgage loans for the second quarters of 2008 and 2007, respectively. Mortgage loans managed for other investors were $2.26 billion at June 30, 2008, a 39.9% increase compared to June 30, 2007.
Other
The Other category includes net capital gains and losses, return on capital not allocated to the product segments, holding company expenses, interest on debt, and adjustments made in consolidation. The Other category reported a loss before income taxes of $31.4 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to a loss before income taxes of $5.6 million for the second quarter of 2007. The loss before income taxes for the second quarter of 2008 included net capital losses of $21.6 million, compared to net capital gains of $0.7 million for the second quarter of 2007. The increase in net capital losses was primarily related to asset write-downs of fixed maturity securities. The loss before income taxes also included additional interest expense of $3.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2007, which primarily resulted from $300 million in long-term debt issued in May 2007.
Fixed Maturity Securities and Commercial Mortgage Loans
At June 30, 2008, the Company’s investment portfolio consisted of approximately 57% fixed maturity securities, 42% commercial mortgage loans and 1% in real estate. The overall rating of the fixed maturity securities portfolio was A (Standard & Poor’s) at June 30, 2008.
The Company’s holdings in bond insurers Ambac, Radian and MBIA had a book value of approximately $35 million. In the second quarter, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairments for these holdings of $18.9 million.
At June 30, 2008, commercial mortgage loans in the Company’s investment portfolio totaled $3.97 billion on approximately 5,161 commercial mortgage loans. The average loan-to-value ratio for the overall portfolio was 58.3%, and the Company’s average exposure was approximately $0.8 million per loan. The Company has the contractual ability to pursue personal recourse on most of the loans. Mortgage loans more than 60 days delinquent were 0.13% of the portfolio balance at June 30, 2008, compared to 0.09% of the portfolio balance at June 30, 2007. Commercial mortgage loan prepayment fees were $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2008, compared to $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2007. The Company does not have direct exposure to sub prime or alt-A mortgages in its investment portfolio. There were no material losses in our mortgage loan portfolio during the second quarter of 2008.
Shares Outstanding
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the second quarters of 2008 and 2007 were 49.4 million and 53.7 million, respectively. During the second quarter of 2008, the Company repurchased 0.1 million shares at a total cost of $5.0 million, a volume weighted-average price of $50.52 per common share. At June 30, 2008, the Company had 1.1 million shares remaining under its repurchase program, which expires December 31, 2008.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Financial measures that exclude after-tax net capital gains and losses and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States) measures. To provide investors with a broader understanding of earnings, the Company provides net income per diluted share excluding after-tax net capital gains and losses, along with the GAAP measure of net income per diluted share, because capital gains and losses are not likely to occur in a stable pattern.
Return on average equity excluding after-tax net capital gains and losses from net income and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) from equity is furnished along with the GAAP measure of net income return on average equity because management believes providing both measures gives investors a broader understanding of return on equity. Measuring return on average equity without accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) excludes the effect of market value fluctuations of the Company’s fixed maturity securities primarily associated with changes in interest rates. Management believes that measuring return on average equity without accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is important to investors because the turnover of the Company’s portfolio of fixed maturity securities may not be such that unrealized gains and losses reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are ultimately realizable. Furthermore, for the purpose of calculating this ratio, management believes exclusion of other comprehensive income (loss) provides investors with a better measure of return.
