(1)Effective December 31, 2016, the “Annuity” reporting segment was renamed “Retirement”.
“Horace Mann’s full year operating income of $1.97 per diluted share included fourth quarter operating income of $0.52 per diluted share. Fourth quarter earnings reflected strong investment returns in all business lines, an elevated level of Property and Casualty catastrophe losses, largely related to Hurricane Matthew, offset by a 1.7 point improvement in underlying Property and Casualty results. Sales results in the Life segment remain strong, with continued double-digit momentum, and we experienced 6% growth in Property and Casualty sales for the full year,” said Horace Mann’s President and Chief Executive Officer Marita Zuraitis.

“We are projecting full-year 2017 operating income to between $1.95 and $2.15 per share,” stated Zuraitis. “This estimate anticipates continued improvement in our underlying auto combined ratio, modeled catastrophe losses, as well as modestly lower earnings in the Retirement and Life segments reflecting lower net interest spreads and approximately $0.10 cents of continued strategic investments across all lines of business”.
Property and Casualty Segment
For the full year, Property and Casualty net income of $25.6 million decreased 36%, or $14.4 million, compared to the prior year. On a combined ratio basis, the full year Property and Casualty combined ratio increased 4.5 points to 101.5%. The majority of the increase in the combined ratio was due to a 2.3 point increase in catastrophe losses, or an increase of $15.6 million on a pretax basis. 1.0 point of the increase, or $5.5 million on a pretax basis, was related to a lower level of favorable prior years’ reserve development in 2016 compared to the full year 2015. On an underlying basis, the combined ratio increased 1.2 points to 92.9%. The underlying auto combined ratio increased 2.4 points, to 105.1%, primarily as a result of higher loss frequency and severity. This increase was somewhat offset by a 1.7 point improvement in the underlying property combined ratio, which for full year 2016 was 68.6%. The improvement in property results was primarily driven by the impacts of profitability improvement initiatives, as well as lower catastrophe reinsurance costs.
For the fourth quarter of 2016, Property and Casualty net income of $9.6 million increased 22%, or $1.7 million, compared to the prior year. The Property and Casualty combined ratio of 99.1% increased 0.5 points compared to the fourth quarter of 2015, as a result of 2.3 points of higher catastrophe losses, compared to the prior year. Favorable prior years’ reserve development of 1.7 points, or $2.7 million pretax in the current quarter was $0.2 million pretax higher than the amount a year ago. On an underlying basis, the fourth quarter auto combined ratio of 108.2% improved 1.4 points, and the property combined ratio of 64.3% improved 3.3 points compared to a year ago. These improvements were primarily due to lower expense ratios and continued profitability initiatives.
Total Property and Casualty written premiums of $158.0 million and $634.3 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, respectively, each increased 5% compared to the prior year. The growth was driven primarily by increases in average premium per policy for both auto and property, as well as lower catastrophe reinsurance costs.
Total Property and Casualty sales increased 1% and 6% compared to the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, respectively. Auto sales were flat for the current quarter but increased 6% for the year, while property sales increased 7% and 5% for the respective periods. Policy retention continues to be strong with auto and property policy retention rates for the current year at 84% and 88%, respectively.

Retirement Segment
On a reported basis, Retirement segment net income of $11.4 million and $50.7 million for the fourth quarter and full year, increased 10% and 17%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. The impact of unlocking increased pretax income by $2.4 million and $3.7 million as compared to the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, respectively.
For the fourth quarter of 2016, Retirement segment net income, excluding deferred policy acquisition costs unlocking (“unlocking”), was $10.8 million, a decrease of $0.6 million compared to the prior year. For the full year, net income on the same basis, or $50.5 million, increased $4.9 million compared to 2015.
The Retirement segment results reflect an increase in net interest margin of $1.7 million for the fourth quarter and $12.4 million for the full year partially offset by an increase in operating expenses. The increase in expenses primarily reflected costs related to the Company’s continued infrastructure and strategic investments.
The 2016 annualized net interest spread on fixed annuity assets improved 9 points, to 193 basis points. The improvement reflected strong investment portfolio performance, including the impact of prepayment activity in the Company’s fixed income portfolios, as well as favorable returns on alternative investments. Total annuity assets under management of $6.4 billion increased 7% compared to the prior year, and total cash value persistency remained strong at approximately 95%.
For the three months ended December 31, 2016, annuity deposits of $128.3 million increased 2% compared to the prior year period, while annuity deposits of $520.2 million for the full year 2016 decreased 5% compared to a year ago. The majority of the decline in annuity deposits for the current year was due to an elevated level of non-recurring deposits in the first half of 2015 related to changes in the Company’s employee retirement savings plans.
Horace Mann’s total annuity sales decreased 3% and 4% for the current quarter and full year, respectively, with the full year change primarily reflecting reductions in single premium and rollover deposits, largely related to the Company’s employee retirement savings plans.
Life Segment
Life segment net income of $3.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2016 decreased $0.9 million compared to the prior period. On a full year basis, the Life segment net income of $16.6 million increased $1.6 million compared to the prior period, primarily as a result of an increase in investment income and a decrease in mortality expenses in 2016.
Life segment insurance premiums and contract deposits of $29.6 million and $108.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2016 and full year, increased 4% and 5%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. Life sales of $4.9 million increased $1.4 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2015, primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in single premium sales. On a year-to-date basis, Life sales of $15.6 million increased $4.7 million, with the majority of the increase attributable to single premium sales. Life persistency of 96% was comparable to 12 months earlier.

Investment Results
Total net investment income increased 7% and 9% compared to the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015, respectively. While asset balances in the Retirement segment continued to grow, overall investment results reflected the increase in investment prepayment activity and favorable returns on alternative investments, partially offset by the impact of the current low interest rate environment. Pretax net realized investment gains (losses) were $(2.8) million and $4.1 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, respectively.
Horace Mann’s net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities were $312.2 million at December 31, 2016, compared to net unrealized investment gains of $309.8 million at December 31, 2015.
Though no share buyback activity occurred in the fourth quarter, the Company repurchased 701,410 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $21.5 million under its share repurchase program during 2016. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had a remaining authorization of $29.5 million.
