THE PMI GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The PMI Group, Inc. (“The PMI Group” or “TPG”), a Delaware corporation and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, including: PMI Mortgage Insurance Co., an Arizona corporation, and its affiliated U.S. mortgage insurance and reinsurance companies (collectively “PMI”); PMI Mortgage Insurance Ltd and its holding company, PMI Mortgage Insurance Australia (Holdings) Pty Limited (collectively “PMI Australia”); PMI Mortgage Insurance Company Limited and its holding company, PMI Europe Holdings Limited, the Irish insurance companies (collectively “PMI Europe”); PMI Mortgage Insurance Asia Ltd. (“PMI Asia”); PMI Mortgage Insurance Company Canada and its holding company, PMI Mortgage Insurance Holdings Canada Inc. (collectively “PMI Canada”); PMI Guaranty Co. (“PMI Guaranty”); and other insurance, reinsurance and non-insurance subsidiaries. The PMI Group and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.” All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company has a 42.0% equity ownership interest in FGIC Corporation, the holding company of Financial Guaranty Insurance Company (collectively “FGIC”), a New York-domiciled financial guaranty insurance company. The Company also has equity ownership interests in CMG Mortgage Insurance Company, CMG Mortgage Reinsurance Company and CMG Mortgage Assurance Company (collectively “CMG MI”), which conduct residential mortgage insurance business for credit unions. The Company also has equity ownership interests in RAM Holdings Ltd., the holding company of RAM Reinsurance Company, Ltd. (collectively “RAM Re”), a financial guaranty reinsurance company based in Bermuda. The Company also has ownership interests in several limited partnerships. In addition, the Company owns 100% of PMI Capital I (“Issuer Trust”), an unconsolidated wholly-owned trust that privately issued debt in 1997.

In connection with the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company determined that its investment in FGIC was other-than-temporarily impaired and reduced the carrying value of its investment in FGIC from $103.6 million at December 31, 2007 to zero. To the extent that our carrying value remains zero, we will not recognize in future periods our proportionate share of FGIC’s losses, if any. Equity in earnings from FGIC could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable. The Company is under no obligation to provide additional capital to FGIC.

During the second quarter of 2008, the Company recorded $24.3 million equity in losses of RAM Re and a $1.7 million loss in other comprehensive income from a change in unrealized gains/losses in the current quarter. The current quarter losses reduced the carrying value of the Company’s investment in RAM Re from $26.0 million at March 31, 2008 to zero. To the extent that our carrying value remains zero, we will not recognize in future periods our proportionate share of RAM Re’s losses, if any. Equity in earnings from RAM Re could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable. The Company is under no obligation to provide additional capital to RAM Re.

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and disclosure requirements for interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and

6

Articles 7 and 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Interim results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in The PMI Group’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been included.

Significant accounting policies are as follows:

Investments— The Company has designated its entire portfolio of fixed income and equity securities as available-for-sale. These securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, accounted for as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. The Company evaluates its investments regularly to determine whether there are declines in value and whether such declines meet the definition of other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 59,Accounting for Noncurrent Marketable Equity Securities. The fair value of a security below cost or amortized cost for consecutive quarters is a potential indicator of an other-than-temporary impairment. When the Company determines a security has suffered an other-than-temporary impairment, the impairment loss is recognized, to the extent of the decline, as a realized investment loss in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company’s short-term investments have maturities of greater than three and less than 12 months when purchased and are carried at fair value. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are determined on a specific-identification basis. Investment income consists primarily of interest and dividends. Interest income and preferred stock dividends are recognized on an accrual basis. Dividend income on common stocks is recognized on the date of declaration. Net investment income represents interest and dividend income, net of investment expenses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents— The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Investments in Unconsolidated Subsidiaries— Investments in the Company’s unconsolidated subsidiaries include both equity investees and other unconsolidated subsidiaries. Investments in equity investees with ownership interests of 20-50% are generally accounted for using the equity method of accounting, and investments of less than 20% ownership interest are generally accounted for using the cost method of accounting if the Company does not have significant influence over the entity. Limited partnerships with ownership interests greater than

7

3% but less than 50% are primarily accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The carrying value of the investments in the Company’s unconsolidated subsidiaries also includes the Company’s share of net unrealized gains and losses in the unconsolidated subsidiaries’ investment portfolios.

The Company reports the equity in earnings from CMG MI on a current month basis and the Company’s interest in limited partnerships are on a one-quarter lag basis. Equity in losses from FGIC are reported on a current month basis. Due to the impairment of the Company’s investment in FGIC in the first quarter of 2008, the carrying value of the Company’s investment in FGIC was reduced to zero and no equity in losses were recorded with respect to FGIC in the first half of 2008. Equity in losses from RAM Re are reported on a one-quarter lag basis. As a result of continued equity in losses from RAM Re, the Company’s investment in RAM Re has been reduced to zero at June 30, 2008. To the extent that our carrying value remains zero, we will not recognize in future periods our proportionate share of FGIC or RAM Re’s losses, if any. Equity in earnings from FGIC or RAM Re could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable.

Periodically, or as events dictate, the Company evaluates potential impairment of its investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries. Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 18,The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock(“APB No. 18”) provides criteria for determining potential impairment. In the event a loss in value of an investment is determined to be an other-than-temporary decline, an impairment charge would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations. Evidence of a loss in value that could indicate impairment might include, but would not necessarily be limited to, the absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or the inability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity which would justify the carrying amount of the investment. Realized capital gains or losses resulting from the sale of the Company’s ownership interests of unconsolidated subsidiaries are recognized as net realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Related Party Receivables and Payables— As of June 30, 2008, related party receivables were $1.5 million and related party payables were $1.9 million compared to $1.4 million and $1.9 million as of December 31, 2007, respectively, which were comprised of non-trade receivables and payables from unconsolidated subsidiaries.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs— The Company defers certain costs of its mortgage insurance operations relating to the acquisition of new insurance and amortizes these costs against related premium revenue in order to match costs and revenues. To the extent we provide contract underwriting services on loans that do not require mortgage insurance, associated underwriting costs are not deferred. Costs related to the acquisition of mortgage insurance business are initially deferred and reported as deferred policy acquisition costs. SFAS No. 60,Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises(“SFAS No. 60”) specifically excludes mortgage guaranty insurance from its guidance relating to the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs. Consistent with industry accounting practice, amortization of these costs for each underwriting year book of business is charged against revenue in proportion to estimated gross profits. Estimated gross profits are composed of earned premiums, interest income, losses and loss adjustment expenses. The deferred costs related to single premium policies are adjusted as appropriate for policy cancellations to be consistent with the Company’s revenue recognition policy. The amortization estimates for each underwriting year are monitored regularly to reflect actual experience and any changes to persistency or loss development. Deferred policy acquisition costs are reviewed periodically to determine that they do not exceed recoverable amounts, after considering investment income.

8

Property, Equipment and Software—Property and equipment, including software, are carried at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to thirty nine years. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and amortized over the lesser of the useful life of the assets or the remaining term of the related lease. The Company’s accumulated depreciation and amortization was $197.4 million and $181.6 million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

Under the provisions of Statement of Position No. 98-1, Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, the Company capitalizes costs incurred during the application development stage related to software developed for internal use purposes and for which it has no substantive plan to market externally. Capitalized costs are amortized at such time as the software is ready for its intended use on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is generally three to seven years.

Derivatives— Certain credit default swap contracts entered into by PMI Europe are considered credit derivative contracts under SFAS No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,as amended by SFAS No. 149, Amendment of SFAS No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. These credit default swap derivatives are recorded at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in consolidated net income. The Company determines the fair values of its credit default swaps on a quarterly basis and uses internally developed models since market values are not available. These models include future estimated claim payments and market input assumptions, including discount rates and market spreads to calculate a fair value and reflect management’s best judgment about current market conditions. Due to the illiquid nature of the credit default swap market, the use of available market data and assumptions used by management to estimate fair value could differ materially from amounts that would be realized in the market if the derivatives were traded. Due to the volatile nature of the credit market as well as the imprecision inherent in the Company’s fair value estimate, future valuations could differ materially from those reflected in the current period.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements(“SFAS No. 157”). The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, of which “Level 3” inputs include fair value determinations using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. Due to the lack of available market values for the Company’s credit default swap contracts, the Company’s methodology for determining the fair value of its credit default swap contracts is based on “Level 3” inputs. (See Note 8.Fair Value Disclosures, for further discussion.)

In 2008, the Company purchased foreign currency put options to partially mitigate the negative financial impact of a potential strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Australian dollar. These Australian dollar put options expire ratably over the calendar year and had a combined cost of $1.1 million. In 2008, the Company recorded in other income, a realized loss of $0.3 million (pre-tax) related to amortization of option costs and an unrealized loss of $0.8 million (pre-tax) related to changes in the fair value of the put options. The foreign currency put options are recorded at fair value based on “Level 2” inputs which are prices from markets that are not active. (See Note 8.Fair Value Disclosures, for further discussion.)

9

Special Purpose Entities— Certain insurance transactions entered into by PMI and PMI Europe require the use of foreign wholly-owned special purpose entities principally for regulatory purposes. These special purpose entities are consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reserve for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses— The consolidated reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) for the Company’s U.S. Mortgage Insurance and International Operations are the estimated claim settlement costs on notices of default that have been received by the Company, as well as loan defaults that have been incurred but have not been reported by the lenders. For reporting and internal tracking purposes, we do not consider a loan to be in default until the borrower has missed two payments. Depending upon its scheduled payment date, a loan delinquent for two consecutive monthly payments could be reported to PMI between the 31^st and the 60^th day after the first missed payment due date. The Company’s U.S. mortgage insurance primary master policy defines “default” as the borrower’s failure to pay when due an amount equal to the scheduled monthly mortgage payment under the terms of the mortgage. Generally, however, the master policy requires an insured to notify PMI of a default no later than the last business day of the month following the month in which the borrower becomes three monthly payments in default. SFAS No. 60 specifically excludes mortgage guaranty insurance from its guidance relating to reserves for losses and LAE. Consistent with industry accounting practices, the Company considers its mortgage insurance policies short-duration contracts and, accordingly, does not establish loss reserves for future claims on insured loans that are not currently in default. The Company establishes loss reserves on a case-by-case basis when insured loans are identified as currently in default using estimated claim rates and claim amounts for each report year, net of recoverable. The Company also establishes loss reserves for defaults that it believes have been incurred but not yet reported to the Company prior to the close of an accounting period using estimated claim rates and claim amounts applied to the estimated number of defaults not reported.

The Company establishes reserves for losses and LAE for financial guaranty contracts on a case-by-case basis when specific insured obligations are in payment default or are likely to be in payment default. These reserves represent an estimate of the present value of the anticipated shortfall between payments on insured obligations plus anticipated loss adjustment expenses and anticipated cash flows from, and proceeds to be received on, sales of any collateral supporting the obligation and/or other anticipated recoveries. The discount rate used in calculating the net present value of estimated losses is based upon the risk-free rate for the duration of the anticipated shortfall.

The Company establishes watchlist reserves for financial guaranty contracts to recognize the potential for claims against the Company on insured obligations that are not presently in payment default, but which have migrated to an impaired level where there is a substantially increased probability of default. These reserves reflect an estimate of probable loss given evidence of impairment, and a reasonable estimate of the amount of loss given default. The methodology for establishing and calculating the watchlist reserve relies on a categorization and assessment of the probability of default and loss severity in the event of default, of the specific impaired obligations on the watchlist based on historical trends and other factors. The watchlist reserves are adjusted as necessary to reflect changes in the loss expectation inherent in the group of impaired credits.

The reserve levels as of the consolidated balance sheet date represent management’s best estimate of existing losses and LAE incurred. The estimates are continually reviewed and

adjusted as necessary as experience develops or new information becomes known to the Company. Such adjustments, to the extent of increasing or decreasing loss reserves, are recognized in the current period’s consolidated results of operations.

Reinsurance— The Company uses reinsurance to reduce net risk in force, optimize capital allocation and comply with a statutory provision adopted by several states that limits the maximum mortgage insurance coverage to 25% for any single risk. The Company’s reinsurance agreements typically provide for a recovery of a proportionate level of claim expenses from reinsurers, and a reinsurance receivable is recorded as an asset based on the type of reinsurance coverage. The Company remains liable to its policyholders if the reinsurers are unable to satisfy their obligations under the agreements. Reinsurance recoverables on loss estimates are based on the Company’s actuarial analysis of the applicable business. Amounts the Company will ultimately recover could differ materially from amounts recorded as reinsurance recoverables. Reinsurance transactions are recorded in accordance with the accounting guidance provided in SFAS No. 113,Accounting and Reporting for Reinsurance of Short-Duration and Long-Duration Contracts. Accordingly, management assesses, among other factors, risk transfer criteria for all reinsurance arrangements.

Revenue Recognition— Mortgage guaranty insurance policies are contracts that are generally non-cancelable by the insurer, are renewable at a fixed price, and provide for payment of premiums on a monthly, annual or single basis. Upon renewal, the Company is not able to re-underwrite or re-price its policies. SFAS No. 60 specifically excludes mortgage guaranty insurance from its guidance relating to the earning of insurance premiums. Consistent with industry accounting practices, premiums written on a monthly basis are earned as coverage is provided. Monthly premiums accounted for 72.5% and 72.2% of gross premiums written from the Company’s mortgage insurance operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, compared to 65.7% and 66.2% in the corresponding periods in 2007, respectively. Premiums written on an annual basis are amortized on a monthly pro rata basis over the year of coverage. Primary mortgage insurance premiums written on policies covering more than one year are referred to as single premiums. A portion of the revenue from single premiums is recognized in premiums earned in the current period, and the remaining portion is deferred as unearned premiums and earned over the expected life of the policy, a range of seven to fifteen years. If single premium policies related to insured loans are cancelled due to repayment by the borrower, and the premium is non-refundable, then the remaining unearned premium related to each cancelled policy is recognized as earned premiums upon notification of the cancellation. Unearned premiums represent the portion of premiums written that is applicable to the estimated unexpired risk of insured loans. Rates used to determine the earning of single premiums are estimates based on actuarial analysis of the expiration of risk. The premiums earnings pattern calculation methodology is an estimation process and, accordingly, the Company reviews its premium earnings cycle for each policy acquisition year (“Book Year”) annually and any adjustments to these estimates are reflected for each Book Year as appropriate.

Income Taxes— The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method in accordance with SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes. The liability method measures the expected future tax effects of temporary differences at the enacted tax rates applicable for the period in which the deferred asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Temporary differences are differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the consolidated financial statements that will result in future increases or decreases in taxes owed on a cash basis compared to amounts already recognized as tax expense in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company’s effective tax rates were 35.6% and 31.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, compared to the federal statutory rate of

11

35.0%. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 reflect income derived from certain international operations, which have lower effective tax rates, combined with the Company’s municipal bond investment income. In 2007, previously deferred tax liabilities attributable to equity in earnings from FGIC and RAM Re were reversed, and in 2007 and 2008 certain deferred tax assets were established.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, a tax valuation allowance of approximately $232.1 million was recorded against a $279.5 million deferred tax asset related to the recognition of losses from FGIC and RAM Re in excess of our tax basis. The Company did not record a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset as it is management’s expectation that a portion of the tax benefit will be realized. Additional benefits could be recognized in the future due to changes in management’s expectations regarding realization of tax benefits. See Footnote 13.Income Taxes, for further discussion.

Benefit Plans— The Company provides pension benefits to all eligible U.S. employees under The PMI Group, Inc. Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) and to certain employees of the Company under The PMI Group, Inc. Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan. In addition, the Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees under another post-employment benefit plan. The Company applies SFAS No. 158,Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)(“SFAS No. 158”) for pension benefits to U.S. employees. SFAS No. 158 requires the Company to recognize the funded status (i.e., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations) of its defined benefit postretirement plans, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income.

On May 17, 2007, The PMI Group’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Retirement Plan. The amendment changed the Plan’s benefit formula from a “final pay” pension formula to a cash balance formula. The amendment takes effect immediately for employees hired or rehired on or after September 1, 2007. For employees hired before and continuously employed on September 1, 2007, the amendment will take effect on January 1, 2011. Under the new cash balance plan formula, the Company will contribute 8% of qualified employees’ compensation to cash balance accounts and credit interest at a rate equal to the 30-year Treasury bond rate.

Foreign Currency Translation— The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52,Foreign Currency Translation. Assets and liabilities denominated in non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are translated using the period-end spot exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at monthly-average exchange rates. The effects of translating operations with a functional currency other than the reporting currency are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income included in total shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency translation gains in accumulated other comprehensive income were $377.9 million as of June 30, 2008 compared with $281.0 million as of December 31, 2007. Gains and losses on foreign currency re-measurement incurred by PMI Australia and PMI Europe represent the revaluation of assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies into the functional currency, the Australian dollar and the Euro, respectively.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)— Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss), the change in foreign currency translation gains or losses, derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, pension adjustments, changes in unrealized gains and losses on investments and reclassification of realized gains and losses previously reported in comprehensive income (loss), net of related tax effects.

12

Business Segments— The Company’s reportable operating segments are U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations, International Operations, Financial Guaranty, and Corporate and Other. U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations includes the results of operations of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co., affiliated U.S. insurance and reinsurance companies and the equity in earnings from CMG MI. International Operations includes the results of operations of PMI Australia, PMI Europe, PMI Asia, and PMI Canada. Financial Guaranty includes the equity in earnings (losses) from FGIC and RAM Re, and the financial results of PMI Guaranty. The Company’s Corporate and Other segment mainly consists of our holding company and contract underwriting operations.

Earnings Per Share— Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is based on consolidated net income (loss) available to common shareholders and the actual weighted-average common shares that are outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is based on consolidated net income (loss) available to common shareholders, adjusted for the effects of dilutive securities, and the weighted-average dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted-average dilutive common shares reflect the potential increase of common shares if contracts to issue common shares, including stock options issued by the Company that have a dilutive impact, were exercised, or if outstanding securities were converted into common shares. Due to the net loss in the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, normally dilutive components of shares outstanding such as stock options were not included in fully diluted shares outstanding as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table presents basic and diluted EPS for the periods indicated and a reconciliation of the weighted average common shares used to calculate basic EPS to the weighted-average common shares used to calculate diluted EPS:

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,

Dividends declared and accrued to common shareholders	$	0.0125		$	0.0525	$	0.0250		$	0.1050

Share-Based Compensation— The Company applies SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),Share-Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123R”) for share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123R requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair value-based method and recognized as expense in the consolidated results of operations. The Company recognizes the fair value of share-based payments granted and unvested, including employee stock options, restricted stock units, and employee stock purchase plan shares, as compensation expense in the

13

consolidated results of operations. Share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $2.1 million (pre-tax), and $6.5 million (pre-tax), respectively, compared to $3.5 million (pre-tax) and $10.6 million (pre-tax), respectively, for the corresponding periods in 2007.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments —Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 and SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 157 provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company elected to adopt the fair value option for certain corporate debt on the adoption date. SFAS No. 159 requires that the difference between the carrying value before election of the fair value option and the fair value of these instruments be recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company recognized a net of tax gain of $31.8 million to the beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2008 related to the initial adoption of SFAS No. 159 for certain debt instruments held by the Company. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company’s net loss included a $17.0 million and $45.7 million gain, respectively, related to the subsequent measurement of fair value for these debt instruments. We selected our 10 year and 30 year senior debt instruments for the fair value option as their market values are the most readily available. The fair value option was elected with respect to the senior debt as changes in value are expected to generally offset changes in the value of credit default swap contracts that are also accounted for at fair value. (See Note 8.Fair Value Disclosures, for further discussion.)

Reclassifications—Certain items in the prior corresponding period’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s consolidated financial statement presentation. Certain items in the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were reclassified to reflect the effect of foreign currency exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents. In the prior year presentation, the line item, foreign currency translation value increase, reflected the exchange rate effect on all of the balance sheet items as reflected in the table below:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2007 as reclassified			2007 as previously reported
	(Dollars in thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	288,507		$	308,924

NOTE 3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163,Accounting for Financial Guaranty Insurance Contracts, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 (“SFAS No. 163”) which specifically clarifies the accounting guidance for financial guaranty contracts under SFAS No. 60. SFAS No. 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. The statement also clarifies how SFAS No. 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for

14

premium revenue and claim liabilities. SFAS No. 163 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is still evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 163 on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133(“SFAS No. 161”) which amends and expands the disclosure requirements of Statement 133. SFAS No. 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is still evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 161 on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment to ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No. 160”) which establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated statement of operations, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is still evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 160 on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations(“SFAS No. 141R”) which requires an entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business combination to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in SFAS No. 141.SFAS No. 141R is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS No. 141R is not currently expected to significantly impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Unrealized losses in 2008 on fixed income securities were primarily due to increases in interest rates and widening of credit spreads. Unrealized losses in 2008 on preferred securities were primarily due to the widening of credit and sector spreads. The Company determined that the decline in the fair value of certain investments in the first half of 2008 met the definition of other-than-temporary impairment and recognized realized losses of $19.0 million and $1.3 million in the first half of 2008 and 2007, respectively.

NOTE 5. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

Investments in the Company’s unconsolidated subsidiaries include both equity investees and other unconsolidated subsidiaries. The carrying values of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries consisted of the following as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007:

	June 30, 2008		Ownership Percentage		December 31, 2007		Ownership Percentage

Total	$	151,226			$	309,800

Due to the impairment of its FGIC investment in the first quarter of 2008, the Company did not recognize any equity in earnings (losses) from FGIC in the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. During the second quarter of 2008, the Company recorded $24.3 million equity in losses from RAM Re and $1.7 million loss in other comprehensive income from a change in unrealized gains/losses in the current quarter, which reduced the carrying value of the Company’s investment in RAM Re from $26.0 million at March 31, 2008 to zero.

Equity in (losses) earnings from unconsolidated subsidiaries consisted of the following for the periods presented below:

Deferred policy acquisition costs are affected by qualifying costs that are deferred in the period and amortization of previously deferred costs in such periods. In periods where new business activity is declining, the asset will generally decrease because the amortization of previously deferred policy acquisition costs exceeds the amount of acquisition costs being deferred. Conversely, in periods where there is significant growth in new business, the asset will generally increase because the amount of acquisition costs being deferred exceeds the amortization of previously deferred policy acquisition costs.

Deferred policy acquisition costs are reviewed periodically to determine that they do not exceed recoverable amounts, after considering investment income. For the year ended December 31, 2007, as a result of a recoverability analysis of deferred costs relating to new mortgage insurance policies acquired in 2007, the Company impaired its deferred policy acquisition cost asset related to its U.S. Mortgage Operations by $33.6 million relating to the 2007 book year. The deferred policy acquisition cost asset at June 30, 2007 includes costs associated with the 2007 book year which were impaired in the fourth quarter of 2007. The deferred policy acquisition cost asset at June 30, 2008 includes only costs associated with the first half of the 2008 book of business and book years prior to 2007. For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, due to the novation agreement between PMI Guaranty Co., FGIC, and a third party financial guarantor, the Company impaired its remaining deferred policy acquisition cost assets related to PMI Guaranty Co.’s operations by $3.6 million reducing its value to zero.

NOTE 7. RESERVE FOR LOSSES AND LOSS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES (LAE)

The Company establishes reserves for losses and LAE to recognize the estimated liability for potential losses and LAE related to insured mortgages that are in default. The establishment of a loss reserve is subject to inherent uncertainty and requires significant judgment by management. The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending consolidated reserves for losses and LAE between January 1 and June 30:

	2008			2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Balance at January 1,	$	1,242,599		$	414,736
Less: reinsurance recoverables		(36,917	)		(3,741	)
Net balance at January 1,		1,205,682			410,995
Losses and LAE incurred, principally with respect to defaults occurring in:
Current year		917,867			200,793
Prior years(1)		266,931			54,687
Total incurred		1,184,798			255,480
Losses and LAE payments, principally with respect to defaults occurring in:
Current year		(15,146	)		(1,206	)
Prior years		(408,533	)		(165,229	)
Total payments		(423,679	)		(166,435	)
Foreign currency translation effects		7,958			3,441
Net ending balance at June 30,		1,974,759			503,481
Reinsurance recoverables		314,615			3,470
Balance at June 30,	$	2,289,374		$	506,951

⁽¹⁾    The $266.9 million and the $54.7 million increases in total losses and LAE incurred in prior years were due to re-estimates of ultimate claim rates and claim sizes from those established at the original notice of default, updated through the periods presented. These re-estimates of ultimate loss rates and amounts are the result of management’s periodic review of estimated claim amounts in light of actual claim amounts, loss development data and/or expected ultimate claim rates. The increases in prior years’ reserves in 2008 and 2007 were primarily due to the significant weakening of the U.S. housing and mortgage markets and were driven by lower cure rates, higher claim rates and higher claim sizes and, to a lesser extent, higher claim rates and claim sizes in PMI Australia.

The increase in total consolidated loss reserves at June 30, 2008 compared to June 30, 2007 was primarily due to increases in the reserve balances for U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations as a result of an increase in the default inventory, higher claim rates and higher average claim sizes. Upon receipt of default notices, future claim payments are estimated relating to those delinquent loans and a reserve is recorded. Generally, it takes approximately 12 to 36 months from the receipt of a default notice to result in a claim payment. Accordingly, most losses paid relate to default notices received in prior years.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 and SFAS No. 159. In particular, the Company elected to adopt the fair value option presented by SFAS No. 159 for certain corporate debt liabilities on the adoption date. SFAS No. 159 requires that the difference between the carrying value before election of the fair value option and the fair value of these instruments at the time of election of the fair value option be recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption.

21

The following table presents the difference between fair values as of June 30, 2008 and the aggregate contractual principal amounts of the long-term debt for which the fair value option has been elected. Had the Company not adopted SFAS No. 159, the Company’s diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 would have been $3.17 per share and $6.77 per share, respectively.

	Fair Value (including accrued interest) as of June 30, 2008		Principal amount and accrued interest		Difference
Long-term debt
6.000% Senior Notes	$	198,303	$	252,556	$	54,253
6.625% Senior Notes	$	109,798	$	150,128	$	40,330

The change in fair value of certain of the Company’s corporate debt for which the fair value option was elected was principally due to the widening of credit spreads. For the first half of 2008, the adjustment related to widening credit spreads of the Company’s corporate debt carried at fair value was $44.7 million. The amount related to widening credit spreads was determined by comparing the actual fair values of these instruments to similar instruments having no credit risk.

SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

Level 1        Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain U.S. Treasury securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.

Level 2        Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments and derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3        Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include

22

financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including financial instruments for which the Company has elected the fair value option, are summarized below:

PMI Europe’s credit default swap (“CDS”) contracts are valued using internal proprietary models because these instruments are unique, complex, and private and are often highly customized transactions, for which observable market quotes are not available. Due to the lack of observable inputs required to value CDS contracts, they are considered to be Level 3 under the SFAS No. 157 fair value hierarchy. Valuation models and the related assumptions are continuously re-evaluated by management and refined, as appropriate.

Key inputs used in the Company’s valuation of CDS contracts include the transaction notional amount, expected term, premium rates on risk layer, changes in market spreads, estimated loss rates and loss timing, and risk free interest rates. As none of the instruments that we are holding are traded, in order to obtain representative current CDS premium rates or spreads that represent an exit price for the CDS contracts, we develop an internal exit price estimate based on informal market data obtained through market surveys with investment banks, counterparty banks, and other relevant market sources in Europe. The assumed market credit spread is a significant assumption that, if changed, could result in materially different fair values. Accordingly, market perceptions of credit deterioration would result in the increase in the expected exit value (the amount required to be paid to exit the transaction due to wider credit spreads).

Fixed income and equity securities classified as Level 3 under SFAS No. 157 are not publicly or actively traded, and the prices are not readily available. The fair values of these investments are management’s best estimate and will be reassessed periodically.

23

The table below presents a reconciliation for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Level 3 instruments presented in the table, including credit default swaps, and certain fixed income and equity securities, were carried at fair value prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 157.

⁽¹⁾ The losses on equity and fixed income securities of $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 are included in net investment income in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The gain on credit default swaps of $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is included in other income in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

⁽²⁾ The purchase, issuance and settlements of $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 represent net cash received on credit default swaps.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Income Taxes — As of June 30, 2008, no tax issues from the recently closed IRS audit would, in the opinion of management, give rise to a material assessment or have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Indemnification — mortgage-backed securities— In connection with structured transactions in the U.S., Europe and Australia, the Company is often required to provide narrative and/or financial information relating to the Company and its subsidiaries to mortgage-backed securities issuers for inclusion in the relevant offering documents and the issuers’ ongoing SEC filings. In connection with the provision of such information, the Company and its subsidiaries may be required to indemnify the issuer of the mortgage-backed securities and the underwriters of the offering with respect to the information’s accuracy and completeness and its compliance with applicable securities laws and regulations.

Guarantees— The PMI Group has guaranteed certain payments to the holders of the privately issued debt securities (“Capital Securities”) issued by PMI Capital I. Payments with respect to any accrued and unpaid distributions payable, the redemption amount of any Capital Securities that are called and amounts due upon an involuntary or voluntary termination, winding up or liquidation of the Issuer Trust are subject to the guarantee. In addition, the guarantee is irrevocable, is an unsecured obligation of the Company and is subordinate and junior in right of payment to all senior debt of the Company.

24

Funding Obligations— The Company has invested in certain limited partnerships with ownership interests greater than 3% but less than 50%. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had committed to fund, if called upon to do so, $5.8 million of additional equity in certain limited partnership investments. In addition, the Company is under no obligation to fund FGIC or RAM Re, two unconsolidated equity investees.

Legal Proceedings— Various legal actions and regulatory reviews are currently pending that involve the Company and specific aspects of its conduct of business. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these matters, in the opinion of management, based upon the information available as of the date of these financial statements, the expected ultimate liability in one or more of these actions is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 10. RESTRICTED CASH

Effective June 2008, PMI Guaranty, FGIC and Assured Guaranty Re Ltd (“AG Re”) executed an Agreement pursuant to which all of the direct FGIC business currently reinsured by PMI Guaranty was recaptured by FGIC and ceded by FGIC to AG Re. Pursuant to the Agreement, with respect to two of the exposures ceded to AG Re, PMI Guaranty agreed to reimburse AG Re for any losses it pays, subject to an aggregate limit of $22.9 million. PMI Guaranty has secured its obligation by depositing $22.9 million into a trust account for the benefit of AG Re and, to the extent AG Re’s obligations are less than $22.9 million, the remaining funds will be returned to PMI Guaranty. The $22.9 million deposit is included in cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2008.

PMI Europe has entered into a number of collateral support agreements in respect of certain credit default swap and reinsurance transactions it has concluded. Under these agreements PMI Europe may be required to pledge collateral for the benefit of the counterparty. PMI Europe has pledged collateral of $4.6 million for one credit default swap transaction.

NOTE 11. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The components of comprehensive (loss) income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 are shown in the table below.

25

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008			2007			2008			2007

Comprehensive (loss) income	$	(228,628	)	$	85,827		$	(545,922	)	$	196,055

The changes in unrealized gains/losses in the second quarter and first half of 2008 and 2007 were primarily due to widening market spreads principally in the U.S, and to a lesser extent, increases in interest rates in Australia. The changes in foreign currency translation adjustments for 2008 were due primarily to strengthening of the Australian dollar and Euro spot exchange rate relative to the U.S. dollar.

NOTE 12. BENEFIT PLANS

The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit cost for the pension and other post-retirement benefit plans:

Net periodic post-retirement benefit cost	$	200		$	175		$	401		$	350

In January 2008, the Company contributed $10 million to its Retirement Plan. The Company currently does not expect to make additional contributions to its Retirement Plan in 2008. The benefit costs for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased from the corresponding periods in 2007 primarily due to the amendment to the Retirement Plan in May 2007 (discussed in Note 2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for further discussion).

NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES

The components of the deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the period ended are as follows:

	June 30, 2008			December 31, 2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Deferred tax assets:
AMT and other credits	$	55,473		$	55,473

Net deferred tax asset		351,955			223,542
Valuation allowance		(232,131	)		(168,103	)
Net deferred tax asset	$	119,824		$	55,439

The Company established a valuation allowance of approximately $232.1 million against a $279.5 million deferred tax asset, upon the recognition of losses from FGIC and RAM Re, in excess of tax basis. The Company did not record a full valuation against the deferred tax asset, as it is management’s expectation that some portion of the tax benefit may be realized. Additional tax benefits could be recognized in the future if management determines that realization is more likely than not to occur.

Net losses and LAE	$	605,004		$	146,160		$	1,184,798		$	255,480

The majority of the Company’s existing reinsurance contracts are captive reinsurance agreements in the U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations. Under captive reinsurance agreements, a portion of the risk insured by PMI is reinsured with the mortgage originator or investor through a reinsurer that is affiliated with the mortgage originator or investor. Ceded premiums for U.S. captive reinsurance accounted for 88.8% and 89.6% of total ceded premiums written in the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, compared to 90.8% and 91.2% for the corresponding periods in 2007. Reinsurance recoverables on losses incurred in the U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations were $313.5 million as June 30, 2008 and $35.9 million as of December 31, 2007.

⁽¹⁾ The fair value and carrying value of the Company’s 6.000% Senior Notes and 6.625% Senior Notes at June 30, 2008 include accrued interest.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company elected to adopt the fair value option presented by SFAS No. 159 for the Company’s 6.000% Senior Notes and 6.625% Senior Notes. SFAS No. 159 requires that the difference between the carrying value before election of the fair value option and the fair value of these instruments be recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. See Note 8.Fair Value Disclosures, for further discussion.

In considering the initial adoption of the SFAS No. 159, the Company determined that the change in fair value of the 8.309% Junior Subordinated Debentures would not have significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results. Therefore, the Company did not elect to adopt the fair value option for the 8.309% Junior Subordinated Debentures. Since the 5.568% Senior Notes are scheduled to mature in 2008, the Company did not elect to adopt the fair value option for the 5.568% Senior Notes.

In early 2008 the Company amended its existing revolving credit facility (the “facility”) and in May 2008, the Company drew $200 million on the facility. The facility includes a $50 million letter of credit sub-limit. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, the Company’s ability to borrow under the facility was subject to a number of conditions, including that the stock of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. (“MIC”) must be pledged in favor of the lenders under the facility and noteholders under certain of the Company’s senior notes.

NOTE 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company will be closing its operations in Canada, PMI Canada, and repatriating its excess capital to PMI Mortgage Insurance Co., its parent. In order to repatriate excess capital, we must facilitate the removal of PMI Canada’s risk in force and obtain certain regulatory approvals. The Company expects to repatriate approximately $60 million in excess capital in 2008 to PMI. We estimate that the costs associated with exiting Canada will be between $10 million and $13 million, pre-tax.

PMI Guaranty Co. received all regulatory approvals and entered into an agreement to transfer its entire FGIC-related reinsurance portfolio to a third party. In early August of 2008, PMI Guaranty paid approximately $144 million of its excess capital to The PMI Group. The PMI Group expects to reinvest at least 80% of the capital into U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations before the end of the third quarter of 2008.

Financial Results for the Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2008

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008, we recorded consolidated net losses of $246.3 million and $520.3 million, respectively, compared to consolidated net income of $83.8 million and $185.9 million for the corresponding periods in 2007. Losses in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations and Financial Guaranty segments were the primary drivers of our net consolidated losses. U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations’ net losses for the second quarter and first half of 2008 were primarily driven by increases in losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) from the corresponding periods in 2007. Our Financial Guaranty segment’s net losses for the second quarter and first half of 2008 were primarily due to losses associated with a novation agreement executed by PMI Guaranty and equity in losses from RAM Re in the second quarter, and the impairment of our investment in FGIC in the first quarter of 2008. Our financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2008 were positively impacted by net income in our International Operations segment and the change in fair value with regard to certain of our senior debt instruments in our Corporate and Other segment.

Overview of Our Business

We provide credit enhancement products that expand homeownership and strengthen communities by delivering innovative solutions to financial markets worldwide. Our financial products are designed to reduce risk, lower costs and expand market access for our customers. We divide our business into four segments:

• U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations. We offer mortgage insurance products in the U.S. that enable borrowers to buy homes with low down payment mortgages. The results of U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations include PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. and its affiliated U.S. mortgage insurance and reinsurance companies (collectively, “PMI”), and equity in earnings from PMI’s joint venture, CMG Mortgage Insurance Company and its affiliated companies (collectively, “CMG MI”). U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations recorded net losses of $225.9 million and $398.3 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to net income of $41.5 million and $110.4 million for the corresponding periods in 2007.

37

• International Operations. We offer mortgage insurance and other credit enhancement products in Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and Asia. Net income from our International Operations segment was $31.1 million and $48.9 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $28.1 million and $51.2 million for the corresponding periods in 2007.

• Financial Guaranty. Our Financial Guaranty segment includes our wholly-owned surety company, PMI Guaranty Co., our investment in RAM Holdings Ltd., whose wholly-owned subsidiary, RAM Reinsurance Company, Ltd., or RAM Re, provides financial guaranty reinsurance, and our investment in FGIC Corporation, whose wholly-owned subsidiary, Financial Guaranty Insurance Company (collectively, “FGIC”), is a financial guarantor. PMI Guaranty received all regulatory approvals and entered into an agreement to transfer its entire FGIC-related reinsurance portfolio to a third party. In early August of 2008, PMI Guaranty paid approximately $144 million of its excess capital to The PMI Group. The PMI Group expects to reinvest at least 80% of the capital into U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations before the end of the third quarter of 2008. As of June 30, 2008, the carrying values of our investments in FGIC and RAM Re were zero due to other-than-temporary impairment in our FGIC investment and equity in losses in RAM Re. Our Financial Guaranty segment generated net losses of $46.1 million and $170.4 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to net income of $29.0 million and $58.9 million for the corresponding periods in 2007.

• Corporate and Other. Our Corporate and Other segment consists of corporate debt and expenses of our holding company (“The PMI Group” or “TPG”), contract underwriting operations, and equity in earnings or losses from investments in certain limited partnerships. Our Corporate and Other segment generated net losses of $5.4 million and $0.5 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $14.8 million and $34.7 million for the corresponding periods in 2007.

Conditions and Trends Affecting our Business

U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations. The financial performance of our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations segment is affected by a number of factors, including:

• Losses and LAE. The significant weakening of the U.S. residential mortgage, housing, credit, and capital markets continues to negatively affect our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations segment and will continue to do so throughout the remainder of 2008. PMI’s losses and LAE were $552.5 million and $1,089.5 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $134.4 million and $227.2 million for the corresponding periods in 2007. We increased PMI’s net loss reserves in the second quarter and first half of 2008 by $353.7 million and $721.9 million, respectively, as a result of increases in PMI’s default inventory (discussed underDefaultsbelow), higher claim rates and higher average claim sizes. Higher claim rates have been driven by home price declines and diminished availability of certain loan products, both of which constrain refinancing opportunities and result in a decrease in the percentage of the default inventory that is returning to current status. The increases in PMI’s average claim size have been driven by, among other things, higher loan

38

sizes, and declining home prices which limit PMI’s loss mitigation opportunities. These factors also led to an increase in claims paid including LAE in the second quarter and first half of 2008 to $198.8 million and $367.6 million, respectively, compared to $75.7 million and $148.5 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. We expect claim rates and average claim sizes to continue to increase in the second half of 2008. Future increases in claim rates and average claim sizes beyond our current expectations will negatively impact losses and LAE. Changes in economic conditions, including mortgage interest rates, job creation, unemployment rates and home prices could significantly impact our reserve estimates, and therefore, PMI’s losses and LAE.

• Defaults.PMI’s primary default inventory increased to 80,895 as of June 30, 2008 from 63,197 as of December 31, 2007 and 42,349 as of June 30, 2007. PMI’s primary default rate increased to 10.3% as of June 30, 2008 from 7.9% as of December 31, 2007 and 5.6% as of June 30, 2007. We expect PMI’s primary default inventory and default rate to continue to increase in the second half of 2008. The increases in PMI’s primary default inventory and default rate in the first half of 2008 were driven by a number of factors including:

Declining home prices - Declining home prices have made it significantly more difficult for certain borrowers to refinance their mortgages or sell their homes, and are negatively affecting PMI’s default inventory and default rate.

Decline in cure rate -The decline in the percentage of defaults that cure has also negatively affected PMI’s default inventory and default rate. The decline in the percentage of defaults that cure has resulted from, among other things, a slowdown in the time to resolution of defaults (either through cure or claim payment), some of which is attributable to significant backlogs in workout activity by loan servicers attempting to resolve delinquencies and prevent foreclosures.

Above-97s -PMI has experienced higher than expected levels of delinquent Above-97s, mortgages with loan-to-value ratios (“LTVs”) exceeding 97%, in its flow and structured channels. As of June 30, 2008, risk in force from Above-97s in all book years represented 24.0% of PMI’s primary risk in force. The default rate for Above-97s in PMI’s primary portfolio as of June 30, 2008 was 12.4% compared to 9.1% as of December 31, 2007 and 6.0% as of June 30, 2007. PMI’s 2007 book, which is still in its early stage of loss development, has been particularly affected by high levels of delinquent Above-97s. At June 30, 2008, of the 24.0% of PMI’s primary risk in force from Above-97s, approximately half was from our 2007 book year. We no longer insure Above-97s except under commitments issued prior to March 1, 2008.

Alt-A loans -We define Alt-A loans as loans where the borrower’s FICO score is 620 or higherandthe borrower requests and is given the option of providing reduced documentation verifying the borrower’s income, assets, deposit information, or employment. Risk in force from Alt-A loans represented 21.9% of PMI’s primary risk in force as of June 30, 2008 compared to 22.8% as of December 31, 2007 and 23.0% as of June 30, 2007. The default rate for Alt-A loans was 21.7% as of June 30, 2008 compared to 13.9% as of December 31, 2007 and 7.3% as of June 30, 2007. Throughout 2007, in our bulk channel,

39

we tightened our underwriting guidelines related to Alt-A loans. For the flow channel, we tightened our Alt-A underwriting guidelines effective January 1, 2008 and subsequently eliminated all Alt-A loan eligibility effective June 1, 2008. However, due primarily to commitments issued in 2007, approximately 11% of new insurance written in 2008 was Alt-A. We expect the percentage of Alt-A loans in our portfolio to continue to decline. In addition to Above-97s and Alt-A, PMI insures loans with other higher risk characteristics and such loans may possess one or more of such characteristics.

Geographic factors -Declining home prices, particularly in California and Florida, and weak economic conditions in California, as well as in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois (the “Auto States”), have negatively affected the development of PMI’s portfolio. PMI’s default rates in California and Florida increased above PMI’s average default rate as of June 30, 2008. PMI’s default rates in California and Florida were below PMI’s average default rate, as of June 30, 2007. The default rate from California as of June 30, 2008 was 18.0% compared to 10.9% as of December 31, 2007 and 5.3% as of June 30, 2007. The default rate from Florida as of June 30, 2008 was 18.2% compared to 10.6% as of December 31, 2007 and 5.1% as of June 30, 2007. As of June 30, 2008, risk in force from California and Florida insured loans represented 8.4% and 10.8% of PMI’s primary risk in force, respectively. The default rate of the Auto States as of June 30, 2008 was 12.1% compared to 10.6% as of December 31, 2007 and 8.3% as of June 30, 2007. As of June 30, 2008, risk in force from the Auto States represented 13.4% of PMI’s primary risk in force. Effective March 1, 2008, PMI implemented a Distressed Market Policy. For those areas (principally metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs)) that are designated as distressed, PMI caps the maximum insured loan to value ratio generally at 90% (certain distressed areas may be eligible up to 95% LTV) and prescribes additional limiting criteria for certain property types and loan purposes. PMI’s distressed markets list is reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis or as needed depending on our on-going assessment of the market.

Portfolio Seasoning - We generally expect the majority of default and claims activity on insured loans in PMI’s current portfolio to occur in the second through fourth years after loan origination. We are currently experiencing accelerated delinquency and loss development consistent with falling home prices in many MSAs, especially with loans originated in 2007, which represent approximately 33% of PMI’s primary risk in force at June 30, 2008.

• Rating Agency Actions. On April 8, 2008, Standard & Poor’s lowered its insurer financial strength ratings on PMI to “A+” from “AA”. On June 5, 2008, Fitch lowered its insurer financial strength ratings on PMI to “A+” from “AA”, and its long-term issuer rating of The PMI Group to “BBB+” from “A”. On July 9, 2008, Moody’s lowered its insurer financial strength rating on PMI to “A3” from “Aa2” and The PMI Group’s senior debt rating to “Baa3” from “A1”. As a result of Standard & Poor’s downgrade of PMI’s rating, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (collectively, the “GSEs”) each required us to submit a written remediation plan outlining, among other things, the steps we are taking or plan to take to bolster PMI’s financial strength and ultimately restore PMI’s financial

40

strength ratings to the “AA” or equivalent category. We have submitted remediation plans to the GSEs and have discussed the plans with them. Freddie Mac has stated that it will continue to treat PMI as a Type I mortgage insurer but that its forbearance from enforcing Type II insurer requirements is wholly discretionary and subject to change and is dependent upon its evaluation of monthly updates regarding PMI’s progress in implementing its remediation plan. Fannie Mae has reviewed our remediation plan and continues to consider PMI an eligible mortgage insurer. (See Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors – We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.)

• Credit and Portfolio Characteristics. PMI’s primary risk in force as of June 30, 2008 consisted of slightly lower percentages of Above-97s, Alt-A, interest only, and less-than-A quality loans (loans with FICO scores lower than 620) compared to December 31, 2007. Primarily as a result of changes in PMI’s pricing and underwriting guidelines in 2007 and 2008, the percentages of PMI’s NIW comprised of Above-97s, Alt-A, interest only, and less-than A quality loans in the second quarter and first half of 2008 significantly decreased compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. SeeU.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations – Credit and portfolio characteristics,below. As a result of these pricing and underwriting guideline changes, we expect the percentage of PMI’s risk in force comprised of these types of loans to continue to decline in the second half of 2008. However, PMI has issued commitments to insure such loans prior to the effective date of our underwriting guideline changes, and a portion of these commitments will convert to NIW after the effective date of the guideline changes.

• New Insurance Written (NIW). PMI’s primary NIW decreased by 60.8% in the second quarter and by 52.7% in the first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007. These decreases were due to changes to PMI’s pricing and underwriting guidelines that have decreased the types of loans that PMI will insure and, to a lesser extent, the continuing slowdown in the mortgage origination and non-agency mortgage capital markets and increased competition from the Federal Housing Administration’s mortgage insurance programs. We expect PMI’s NIW generated through both its flow and structured finance channels will be lower in 2008 than in 2007.

• Policy Cancellations and Persistency. PMI’s persistency rate, which is based upon the percentage of primary insurance in force at the beginning of a 12-month period that remains in force at the end of that period, was 79.6% as of June 30, 2008, 75.5% as of December 31, 2007 and 71.7% as of June 30, 2007. The increase in PMI’s persistency rate reflects home price declines and lower levels of residential mortgage refinance activity. If these trends continue, we expect that policy cancellation rates will continue to slow and PMI’s persistency rate will continue to improve.

• Captive Reinsurance. Under captive reinsurance agreements, PMI transfers portions of its risk written on loans originated by certain lender-customers to captive reinsurance companies affiliated with such lender-customers. In return, PMI cedes a share of its gross premiums written to these captive reinsurance companies. As of June 30, 2008, 53.0% of PMI’s primary insurance in force was subject to captive reinsurance agreements compared to 50.3% as of June 30, 2007. As of June 30, 2008, we recorded

41

$308.8 million in reinsurance recoverables from captive arrangements related to PMI’s gross loss reserves. Due to the delay between establishing a reserve and the payment of claims, we have only received $0.3 million and $0.8 million in claim payments from captive trusts in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively. As of June 30, 2008, assets in captive trust accounts held for the benefit of PMI totaled approximately $787.8 million. We expect that claim payments from captive trusts assets will increase in 2008 and substantially increase in 2009. For business written on or after June 1, 2008, the GSEs prohibit mortgage insurers from ceding gross risk or gross premiums greater than 25% to captive reinsurers. We amended all applicable captive contracts to comply with the GSEs’ requirement.

International Operations. Factors affecting the financial performance of our International Operations segment include:

• PMI Australia. As a result of the recent downgrades of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co., PMI Australia’s parent company, PMI Australia has been downgraded by and received insurer financial strength ratings of “AA-”, “AA-” and “Aa3” from Standard & Poor’s, Fitch and Moody’s, respectively. PMI Australia’s ability to attract new business and to compete is highly dependent on its perceived value and strength as a counterparty as reflected in part by its insurer financial strength ratings. Accordingly, the downgrades of PMI Australia, and future adverse rating agency actions if any, will likely negatively impact PMI Australia. PMI Australia had net income of $24.0 million and $54.5 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $24.4 million and $42.5 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. The decrease in net income in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007 was primarily due to higher losses and LAE of $22.3 million, partially offset by higher premiums earned. The increase in net income in the first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007 was primarily due to higher premiums earned and higher net investment income in 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007, partially offset by higher losses and LAE.

• PMI Europe. We are reconfiguring PMI Europe to conserve and enhance capital and reduce expenses while maintaining a presence in Europe. We will continue to service existing customers out of our Dublin, Ireland office. As a result of the recent downgrades of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co., PMI Europe’s parent company, PMI Europe has been downgraded by and has received insurer financial strength ratings of “A+”, “A+” and “A3” from Standard & Poor’s, Fitch and Moody’s, respectively. As a result of the downgrades, certain derivative counterparties may require PMI Europe to post collateral or terminate certain contracts. (See also Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted byrecent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agencyactions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.). PMI Europe had net income of $5.8 million in the second quarter of 2008 and a net loss of $8.1 million for the first half of 2008 compared to net income of $1.7 million and $4.6 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. The increase in net income in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007 was primarily due to changes in the fair value of PMI Europe’s credit default swap (“CDS”) derivative contracts in the second quarter of 2008 resulting from the significant widening of The PMI Group’s CDS spreads during the period. This widening of spreads reduced the value of PMI Europe’s credit derivative liabilities related to nonperformance risk. The tightening of European residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) credit spreads during the period and increased cash flows from new contracts concluded in the fourth quarter of 2007 also impacted the fair value of PMI Europe’s CDS. As a result of these factors, PMI Europe recorded a $9.5 million mark-to-market gain in the second quarter of 2008 related to the credit derivative

42

liabilities. The loss in the first half of 2008 was primarily driven by an increase in loss reserves of $19.5 million in the first half of 2008 due primarily to the deteriorating performance of certain U.S. exposures on which PMI Europe provided reinsurance coverage in 2005 and increased defaults in the Italian primary flow business.

• PMI Asia. PMI Asia’s claim payment obligations are guaranteed by PMI Europe. As a result of the downgrade of PMI Europe’s insurer financial strength rating, PMI Asia’s largest customer notified us that it would significantly reduce the percentage of its mortgage insurance business that it will cede to PMI Asia. This action will significantly reduce PMI Asia’s gross reinsurance premiums in the future. Additional adverse rating agency actions relating to PMI and PMI Europe could result in further ceding reductions, or a termination of the relationship, by this customer. PMI Asia had net income of $2.5 million and $5.2 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $2.3 million and $4.5 million in the corresponding periods in 2007.

• PMI Canada.On August 5, 2008, we determined to close our operations in Canada, PMI Canada, and repatriate its excess capital to PMI. In order to repatriate excess capital we must facilitate the removal of PMI Canada’s risk in force and obtain certain regulatory approvals. We expect to be able to repatriate to PMI approximately $60 million in 2008. We estimate that the costs associated with exiting Canada will be between $10 million and $13 million, pre-tax.

• Rating Agency and Capital Constraints.As discussed above, the ratings of our international subsidiaries and/or their ability to compete for business, are dependent in part upon the financial strength, performance, and capital support of PMI, The PMI Group or other insurance subsidiaries within The PMI Group. Continued adverse loss development in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations could further weaken the perceived counterparty strength of our international insurance subsidiaries and limit new business opportunities. In addition to rating agency actions, capital constraints at both The PMI Group and PMI, as well as at our international subsidiaries, are limiting certain of our international subsidiaries’ abilities to engage in new business transactions. (See also Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.)

• Foreign Currency Exchange Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Put Options. The performance of our International Operations is subject to fluctuations in exchange rates between the reporting currency of the U.S. dollar and our other functional foreign currencies. The changes in the average foreign currency exchange rates from the second quarter and first half of 2007 compared to the corresponding periods in 2008 positively affected International Operations’ net income by $3.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The foreign currency translation impact is calculated using the period over period change in the average exchange rates to the current period ending net income in the functional currency.

43

Financial Guaranty. Factors affecting the financial performance of our Financial Guaranty segment include:

• RAM Re. Equity in losses from RAM Re in the second quarter and first half of 2008 were $24.3 million and $60.6 million, respectively, compared to equity in earnings of $3.4 million and $5.7 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. The equity in losses from RAM Re in the second quarter and first half of 2008 were due primarily to RAM Re’s net unrealized mark-to-market losses of $166.4 million and $315.8 million, respectively, on its credit derivative portfolio as a result of widening credit spreads and increases in loss reserves of $30.5 million and $76.7 million, respectively, primarily related to continuing deterioration in the performance of residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”). As of June 30, 2008, the carrying value of our investment in RAM Re was reduced to zero as a result of equity in loss recorded in the current quarter combined with our impairment charge of $38.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. To the extent cumulative equity in earnings/losses is negative, no equity in losses relating to RAM Re will be recorded. Equity in earnings from RAM Re could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable.

• PMI Guaranty. PMI Guaranty had net losses of $21.8 million and $23.1 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to net income of $1.4 million and $2.7 million for the corresponding periods in 2007. Effective June 2008, PMI Guaranty, FGIC and Assured Guaranty Re Ltd (“AG Re”) executed an Agreement pursuant to which all of the direct FGIC business currently reinsured by PMI Guaranty was recaptured by FGIC and ceded by FGIC to AG Re. The 2008 net loss was primarily due to total incurred losses of $26.7 million recorded in the second quarter of 2008 primarily related to this Agreement. With respect to two of the exposures ceded to AG Re, PMI Guaranty agreed to reimburse AG Re for any losses it pays, subject to an aggregate limit of $22.9 million. PMI Guaranty has secured its obligation by depositing $22.9 million into a trust account for the benefit of AG Re and, to the extent AG Re’s obligations are less than $22.9 million, the remaining funds will be returned to PMI Guaranty. In conjunction with the Agreement, PMI Guaranty impaired all remaining deferred policy acquisition cost assets in the second quarter as it determined such costs were not recoverable. In early August of 2008, PMI Guaranty paid approximately $144 million of its excess capital to The PMI Group. The PMI Group expects to reinvest at least 80% of the capital into U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations before the end of the third quarter of 2008.

• FGIC. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, we determined that our investment in FGIC was other-than-temporarily impaired and reduced the carrying value of our investment in FGIC from $103.6 million at December 31, 2007 to zero. To the extent cumulative equity in earnings/losses is negative, no equity in losses relating to FGIC will be recorded. Equity in earnings from FGIC could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable. We are under no obligation, nor intend, to provide additional capital to FGIC.

44

• Valuation Allowance.For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, a tax valuation allowance of approximately $232.1 million was recorded against a $279.5 million deferred tax asset related to the recognition of losses from FGIC and RAM Re in excess of our tax basis. We did not record a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset as it is management’s expectation that a portion of the tax benefit will be realized. Additional benefits could be recognized in the future due to changes in management’s expectations regarding realization of tax benefits.

Corporate and Other. Factors affecting the financial performance of our Corporate and Other segment include:

• Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments.Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted SFAS No. 159. SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement of certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. We elected to adopt the fair value option for certain corporate debt. For the second quarter and first half of 2008, our net losses included decreases in fair value (representing increase in revenue) of $17.0 million and $45.7 million, respectively, related to the subsequent measurement of fair value for these debt instruments. The changes in the fair value of liabilities for which the fair value was elected were primarily due to widening of credit spreads and interest rate fluctuations. (See Item I, Note 8.Fair Value Disclosures, for further discussion.)

• Contract Underwriting Services. Total contract underwriting expenses include allocated expenses and monetary remedies provided to customers in the event we failed to properly underwrite a loan. Contract underwriting remedies, and accruals thereof, were $1.5 million and $3.0 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $1.3 million and $3.6 million in the corresponding periods in 2007.

• Share-Based Compensation. During the second quarter and first half of 2008, we incurred pre-tax share-based compensation expense of $2.1 million and $6.5 million, respectively, compared to $3.5 million and $10.6 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. We expect share-based compensation expenses to be lower for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease in share-based compensation expense is due to a decrease in the fair value of the share-based compensation granted and fewer options granted in 2008.

• Additional Items Affecting this Segment. Our Corporate and Other segment also includes net investment income from our holding company, expenses related to corporate overhead, including compensation expense not included in our other operating segments, and interest expense.

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008, we recorded consolidated net losses of $246.3 million and $520.3 million, respectively, compared to consolidated net income of $83.8 million and $185.9 million for the corresponding periods in 2007. Losses in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations and Financial Guaranty segments were the primary drivers of our net consolidated losses. U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations’ net losses for the second quarter and first half of 2008 were primarily driven by increases in losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) from the corresponding periods in 2007. Our Financial Guaranty segment’s net losses for the second quarter and first half of 2008 were primarily due to losses associated with a novation agreement executed by PMI Guaranty and equity in losses from RAM Re in the second quarter, and the impairment of our investment in FGIC in the first quarter of 2008. Our financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2008 were positively impacted by net income in our International Operations segment and the change in fair value with regard to certain of our senior debt instruments in our Corporate and Other segment.

46

The increases in premiums earned in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were driven by higher premiums earned in the U.S. and Australia. The increases in premiums earned in the U.S. were primarily due to insurance in force growth and higher average insured loan sizes as of June 30, 2008 compared to June 30, 2007. The increases in the premiums earned in Australia were driven by the higher levels of policy terminations, combined with the continued strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar.

The increases in net investment income in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the same periods in 2007 were primarily due to the growth of PMI’s and PMI Australia’s investment portfolios and the strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. The increases in our investment portfolio were partially offset by a decrease in our pre-tax book yield. Our consolidated pre-tax book yield was 5.13% and 5.43% as of June 30, 2008, and 2007, respectively.

The net realized investment loss in the second quarter of 2008 was primarily due to an other-than-temporary impairment of $19.0 million of certain preferred securities in our U.S. investment portfolio. The net realized investment loss in the first half of 2008 was primarily due to the impairment of our investment in FGIC offset by gains on the sale of common stock in PMI’s and PMI Australia’s investment portfolios.

The change in fair value of certain debt instruments in the second quarter and first half of 2008 resulted from our adoption of SFAS No. 159 effective January 1, 2008. The changes in fair value of $17.0 million and $45.7 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, were primarily due to changes in interest rates and credit spreads.

The increases in our losses and LAE in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to loss reserve increases and higher claims paid in the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, PMI Australia. The increases in U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations’ losses and LAE in the second quarter and first half of 2008 were due to a $353.7 million and $721.9 million addition to net loss reserves and a $198.8 million and $367.6 million claims paid for the respective periods. These increases reflect the significant weakening of the housing and mortgage markets which drove higher default inventories, claim rates and average claim sizes.

The decreases in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to our $33.6 million impairment in the fourth quarter of 2007 of PMI’s deferred policy acquisition costs associated with PMI’s 2007 book year. As a result of the impairment in the fourth quarter of 2007, current period amortization includes only costs associated with book years prior to 2007 and the first half of 2008. PMI’s deferred policy acquisition cost asset increased to $22.5 million at June 30, 2008 from $10.5 million at December 31, 2007. PMI’s deferred policy acquisition cost asset was $43.9 million as of June 30, 2007.

The increases in other underwriting and operating expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to increases in expense in the International Operations segment, partially offset by lower employee compensation expenses in the U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations.

Our equity in losses from unconsolidated subsidiaries in the second quarter and first half of 2008 were due to RAM Re’s net unrealized mark-to-market losses on its credit derivative

47

portfolio and its loss reserve increases primarily related to continuing deterioration in the performance of RMBS. Equity in losses from RAM Re have reduced the carrying value of our investment in RAM Re to zero as of June 30, 2008.

We recorded income tax benefits of $135.9 million and $236.4 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to income tax expenses of $20.2 million and $52.4 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. The effective tax rates were 35.6% and 31.2% for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to 19.4% and 22.0% for the corresponding periods in 2007. The changes in our effective tax rates were primarily due to changes in the composition of earnings. Our effective tax rates in the second quarter and first half of 2007 were lower due to equity in earnings from FGIC, which had a lower effective tax rate. As we have recorded no equity in losses from FGIC in the first half of 2008, our effective tax rates are higher in the second quarter and first half of 2008 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2007.

Premiums written and earned— PMI’s net premiums written refers to the amount of premiums recorded based on effective coverage during a given period, net of refunds and premiums ceded primarily under captive reinsurance agreements. Under captive reinsurance agreements, PMI transfers portions of its risk written on loans originated by certain lender-customers to captive reinsurance companies affiliated with such lender-customers. In return, portions of PMI’s gross premiums written are ceded to those captive reinsurance companies.

PMI’s premiums earned refers to the amount of premiums recognized as earned, net of changes in unearned premiums. The components of PMI’s net premiums written and premiums earned are as follows:

Gross premiums written	$	251.7		$	236.4		6.5	%	$	514.6		$	476.8		7.9	%
Ceded and refunded premiums, net of assumed		(55.6	)		(47.2	)	17.8	%		(113.5	)		(91.7	)	23.8	%

Premiums earned	$	203.6		$	195.4		4.2	%	$	411.5		$	389.1		5.8	%

The increases in gross and net premiums written and premiums earned in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to higher persistency and increases in PMI’s average premium rates and insured loan sizes, partially offset by lower NIW. (SeeCredit and Portfolio Characteristics, below.)

49

Lower levels of NIW will negatively impact our premiums written and earned in future periods. Higher persistency could partially offset this trend.(See Primary NIW, below.)

As of June 30, 2008, 53.0% of PMI’s primary insurance in force and 53.1% of its risk in force were subject to captive reinsurance agreements compared to 50.3% and 50.2%, respectively, as of June 30, 2007. For business written on or after June 1, 2008, the GSEs prohibit mortgage insurers from ceding gross risk or gross premiums greater than 25% to captive reinsurers. We amended all applicable captive contracts to comply with the GSEs’ requirement.

Net investment income — Net investment income increased in the second quarter and first half of 2008 primarily due to increased holdings of fixed income securities in PMI’s investment portfolio at June 30, 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007, partially offset by a decrease in pre-tax book yield. PMI’s pre-tax book yield was 4.90% at June 30, 2008 compared to 5.26% at June 30, 2007. Fixed income securities in PMI’s portfolio increased to $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2008 from $1.5 billion as of June 30, 2007.

Net realized investment (losses) gains — The net realized investment loss in the second quarter of 2008 was due to an other-than-temporary impairment of $13.2 million of PMI’s preferred securities as a result of declines in the market values of the securities. The increase in net realized investment gains in the first half of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 was primarily due to gains on the sale of certain equity investments in PMI’s portfolio in the first quarter of 2008.

Losses and LAE— PMI’s losses and LAE represent claims paid, certain expenses related to default notification and claim processing and changes to loss reserves during the applicable period. Because losses and LAE includes changes to loss reserves, it reflects our best estimate of PMI’s future claim payments and costs to process claims relating to PMI’s current inventory of loans in default. Claims paid including LAE includes amounts paid on primary and pool insurance claims, and LAE. PMI’s losses and LAE and related claims data are shown in the following table.

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008		2007		Percentage Change		2008		2007		Percentage Change
	(Dollars in millions, except claim size)						(Dollars in millions, except claim size)
Claims paid including LAE	$	198.8	$	75.7	162.6	%	$	367.6	$	148.5	147.5	%
Change in net loss reserves		353.7		58.7	—			721.9		78.7	—
Losses and LAE	$	552.5	$	134.4	—		$	1,089.5	$	227.2	—
Number of primary claims paid		4,329		2,336	85.3	%		8,051		4,698	71.4	%
Average primary claim size(in thousands)	$	43.9	$	29.0	51.4	%	$	42.8	$	28.2	51.8	%

The increases in claims paid including LAE in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were driven by higher average primary claim sizes and the increase in the number of primary claims paid (or claim rate). The increases in PMI’s average claim size have been driven by higher loan sizes and coverage levels in PMI’s

50

portfolio, and declining home prices which limit PMI’s loss mitigation opportunities. Higher claim rates have been driven by, among other things, home price declines and diminished availability of certain loan products, both of which constrain refinancing opportunities, and result in a decrease in the percentage of the default inventory that is returning to current status. Because we expect claim rates and claim sizes to continue to increase, we expect PMI’s claims paid to be significantly higher in 2008 than in 2007. Primary claims paid were $189.9 million and $344.6 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $67.8 million and $132.7 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. Pool insurance claims paid were $4.1 million and $13.3 million in second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $4.9 million and $9.7 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. For a discussion of the changes in net loss reserves for the second quarter and first half of 2008 and 2007, seeConditions and Trends Affecting our Business – U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations – Losses and LAE,above.

As of June 30, 2008, we recorded $308.8 million in reinsurance recoverables from captives related to gross loss reserves. Due to the delay between establishing a reserve and the payment of claims, we have only received $0.3 million and $0.8 million in claim payments from captive trusts in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively. As of June 30, 2008, assets in captive trust accounts held for the benefit of PMI totaled approximately $787.8 million.

Defaults— PMI’s primary mortgage insurance master policies define “default” as the borrower’s failure to pay when due an amount equal to the scheduled monthly mortgage payment under the terms of the mortgage. Generally, the master policies require an insured to notify PMI of a default no later than the last business day of the month following the month in which the borrower becomes three monthly payments in default. For reporting and internal tracking purposes, we do not consider a loan to be in default until the borrower has missed two consecutive payments. Depending upon its scheduled payment date, a loan delinquent for two consecutive monthly payments could be reported to PMI between the 31^st and the 60^th day after the first missed payment due date.

The increases in PMI’s primary default inventory and default rate in the first half of 2008 are discussed inConditions and Trends Affecting our Business – U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations – Losses and LAE,above.

PMI’s modified pool default data are presented in the table below.

	As of June 30,				Percentage change/ variance
	2008		2007
Modified pool with deductible
Loans in default	24,457		10,840		125.6	%

Default rate	11.04	%	4.60	%	6.44	pps
Modified pool without deductible
Loans in default	8,456		5,414		56.2	%

Policies in force	280,812		310,909		(9.7	)%
Default rate	11.72	%	5.23	%	6.49	pps

The increases in loans in default for modified pool with deductible were due to deterioration in the 2007 book and the continued seasoning of the 2006 book. We generally expect PMI’s modified pool loans in default to increase as the modified pool portfolio seasons. The increases in loans in default for modified pool without deductible were due to a large modified pool transaction in which PMI insured predominantly seasoned, less-than-A quality loans. We expect higher default rates for less-than-A quality loans particularly when, due to their seasoning, they are approaching or have entered their peak period of loss development. However,

52

we also believe that PMI’s modified pool insurance products’ risk reduction features, including a stated stop loss limit, exposure limits on each individual loan in the pool and, in some cases, deductibles, reduce our potential loss exposure on loans insured by those products.

Total pool loans in default (which includes modified and other pool products) as of June 30, 2008 and 2007 were 37,640 and 20,238, respectively. The default rates for total pool loans as of June 30, 2008 and 2007 were 10.76% and 5.17%, respectively.

Total underwriting and operating expenses— PMI’s total underwriting and operating expenses are as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008		2007		Percentage Change		2008		2007		Percentage Change
	(Dollars in millions)						(Dollars in millions)
Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs	$	3.8	$	12.6	(69.8	)%	$	8.1	$	25.2	(67.9	)%
Other underwriting and operating expenses		24.2		26.8	(9.7	)%		46.5		54.4	(14.5	)%
Total underwriting and operating expenses	$	28.0	$	39.4	(28.9	)%	$	54.6	$	79.6	(31.4	)%
Policy acquisition costs incurred and deferred	$	10.4	$	13.3	(21.8	)%	$	20.1	$	25.6	(21.5	)%

PMI’s policy acquisition costs are those costs that vary with, and are related to, our acquisition, underwriting and processing of new mortgage insurance policies, including contract underwriting and sales related activities. To the extent we provide contract underwriting services on loans that do not require mortgage insurance, associated underwriting costs are not deferred. We defer policy acquisition costs when incurred and amortize these costs in proportion to estimated gross profits for each policy year by type of insurance contract (i.e. monthly, annual and single premium). Policy acquisition costs incurred and deferred are variable and fluctuate with the volume of new insurance applications processed and NIW. The decrease in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 was primarily due to our $33.6 million impairment in the fourth quarter of 2007 of PMI’s deferred policy acquisition costs associated with PMI’s 2007 book year. As a result of this impairment, current period amortization includes only costs associated with book years prior to 2007 and the first half of 2008. PMI’s deferred policy acquisition cost asset increased to $ 22.5 million at June 30, 2008 from $10.5 million at December 31, 2007. PMI’s deferred policy acquisition cost asset was $43.9 million as of June 30, 2007.

53

Other underwriting and operating expenses generally consist of all costs that are not attributable to the acquisition of new business and are recorded as expenses when incurred. Other underwriting and operating expenses decreased in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 primarily as a result of lower employee compensation expenses and lower pension costs resulting from an amendment to our retirement plan in the second quarter of 2007.

PMI incurs underwriting expenses related to contract underwriting services for mortgage loans without mortgage insurance coverage. These costs are allocated to PMI Mortgage Services Co., or MSC, which is reported in our Corporate and Other segment, thereby reducing PMI’s underwriting and operating expenses. Contract underwriting expenses allocated to MSC were $3.1 million and $6.1 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $3.6 million and $6.1 million in the corresponding periods in 2007.

Equity in earnings from unconsolidated subsidiaries— U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations’ equity in earnings is derived entirely from the results of operations of CMG MI. Equity in earnings from CMG MI decreased to $3.0 million and $5.9 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $4.6 million and $9.5 million in the corresponding periods in 2007 primarily as a result of higher losses, partially offset by higher premiums earned.

Income taxes— U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations statutory tax rate is 35%. The tax benefit recorded in the U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations segment reflects tax benefits attributable to tax exempt interest and dividends and favorable interim period adjustments, resulting in an effective tax rate of 36.8% and 37.9% for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively.

Ratios— PMI’s loss, expense and combined ratios are shown below.

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008		2007		Variance	2008		2007		Variance
Loss ratio	271.3	%	68.8	%	202.5 pps	264.8	%	58.4	%	206.4 pps
Expense ratio	14.3	%	20.8	%	(6.5) pps	13.6	%	20.7	%	(7.1 ) pps
Combined ratio	285.6	%	89.6	%	196.0 pps	278.4	%	79.1	%	199.3 pps

PMI’s loss ratio is the ratio of losses and LAE to premiums earned. The loss ratio increased in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 as a result of higher losses and LAE, partially offset by higher premiums earned.

PMI’s expense ratio is the ratio of total underwriting and operating expenses to net premiums written. The decreases in PMI’s expense ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to an increase in net premiums written and decreases in amortization of deferred acquisition costs and employee compensation expenses.

Primary NIW— The components of PMI’s primary NIW are as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008		2007		Percentage Change		2008		2007		Percentage Change
	(Dollars in millions)						(Dollars in millions)
Primary NIW:
Flow channel	$	4,364	$	10,268	(57.5	)%	$	10,316	$	17,792	(42.0	)%
Structured finance channel		184		1,337	(86.2	)%		351		4,776	(92.7	)%
Total primary NIW	$	4,548	$	11,605	(60.8	)%	$	10,667	$	22,568	(52.7	)%

The decreases in PMI’s primary NIW in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were due to changes to PMI’s pricing and underwriting guidelines that have decreased the types of loans that PMI will insure, the continuing slowdown in the mortgage origination and non-agency mortgage capital markets and increased competition from the Federal Housing Administration. We expect PMI’s NIW generated through both its flow and structured finance channels to continue to be lower in 2008 than in 2007.

Modified pool insurance—PMI wrote $0 and $4.1 million of modified pool risk in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $107.1 million and $209.5 million of modified pool risk in the corresponding periods in 2007. This decline was driven by a reduction in demand for this product by our customers. We expect to continue to write less modified pool risk in 2008 than in prior years. Modified pool risk in force was $2.3 billion as of June 30, 2008, $2.9 billion as of December 31, 2007 and $2.8 billion as of June 30, 2007.

Insurance and risk in force— PMI’s primary insurance in force and primary and pool risk in force are shown in the table below.

	As of June 30,						Percentage Change/ Variance
	2008			2007
	(Dollars in millions)
Primary insurance in force	$	123,151		$	111,667		10.3	%
Primary risk in force	$	30,633		$	28,091		9.0	%
Pool risk in force*	$	2,812		$	3,461		(18.8	)%
Policy cancellations—primary(year-to-date)		11,139			13,536		(17.7	)%
Persistency—primary		79.6	%		71.7	%	7.9	pps

* Includes modified pool and other pool risk in force. As of June 30, 2008, we adjusted pool risk in force to appropriately reflect the effect of loan repayments on risk limits.

Primary insurance in force and risk in force as of June 30, 2008 increased from June 30, 2007 primarily as a result of higher persistency. The increase in PMI’s persistency rate, which is based on the percentage of primary insurance in force at the beginning of a 12-month period that remains in force at the end of that period, reflects lower levels of residential mortgage refinance activity and home price declines.

The following table sets forth the percentages of PMI’s primary risk in force as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 in the ten states with the highest risk in force in PMI’s primary portfolio.

Credit and portfolio characteristics— Less-than-A quality loans generally include loans with credit scores less than 620. We consider a loan Alt-A if it has a credit score of 620 or greater,andthe borrower requests and is given the option of providing reduced documentation verifying income, assets, deposit information, or employment. In the second quarter and first half of 2008, PMI’s NIW consisted of significantly lower percentages of less-than-A quality and Alt-A loans primarily as a result of changes in PMI’s pricing and underwriting guidelines. The following table presents PMI’s less-than-A quality loans and Alt-A loans as percentages of its flow channel and structured finance channel primary NIW:

	Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,

Total primary NIW	$	160	3.5	%	$	4,072	35.1	%	$	1,080	10.1	%	$	7,967	35.3	%

The decreases shown above in the percentages of PMI’s NIW consisting of ARMs and Above-97s were driven primarily by changes in PMI’s pricing and underwriting guidelines. We no longer insure Above-97s, except under commitments issued prior to March 1, 2008.

57

Interest only loans, also known as deferred amortization loans, and payment option ARMs have more exposure to declining home prices than fixed rate loans or traditional ARMs. Borrowers with interest only loans do not reduce principal during an initial deferral period. In the second quarter and first half of 2008, interest only loans were insured primarily through PMI’s flow channel and such loans were primarily sold to the GSEs. The vast majority of interest only loans insured in the second quarter and first half of 2008 have ten year terms and are subject to additional underwriting criteria to limit the potential for layered risk. With a payment option ARM, a borrower generally has the option every month to make a payment consisting of principal and interest, interest only, or an amount established by the lender that may be less than the interest owed in which case the interest shortfall is added to the principal amount of the loan. The following table presents PMI’s interest only loans as percentages of its flow channel and structured finance channel primary NIW and payment option ARMs as percentages of its flow channel primary NIW:

The following table presents PMI’s less-than-A quality loans, Alt-A loans, ARMs, Above-97s, interest only, and payment option ARMs loans as percentages of primary risk in force:

	June 30, 2008		December 31, 2007		June 30, 2007
As a percentage of primary risk in force:
Less-than-A Quality loans (FICO scores below 620)	7.7	%	8.1	%	7.9	%

Interest Only	13.8	%	14.2	%	13.6	%
Payment Option ARMs	3.7	%	3.8	%	4.2	%

* Less-than-A with FICO scores below 575 is a subset of PMI’s less-than-A quality loan portfolio.

** 2/28 Hybrid ARMs are loans whose interest rate is fixed for an initial two year period and floats thereafter.

PMI expects higher default and claim rates on Above-97s, Alt-A, interest only, and less-than-A quality loans. In addition, PMI insures loans that may possess one or more of the characteristics. While we incorporate these assumptions into our underwriting approach, portfolio limits, pricing and loss and claim estimates, there can be no assurance that the premiums earned with respect to such insured loans will be adequate to cover related incurred losses.

International Operations

International Operations’ results include our Australian subsidiaries, collectively referred to as PMI Australia; our Irish subsidiaries, collectively referred to as PMI Europe; PMI Asia; and PMI Canada.

Reporting of financial and statistical information for International Operations is subject to foreign currency rate fluctuations in translation to U.S. dollar reporting. Our International Operations segment’s net income is summarized as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008			2007			Percentage Change		2008			2007			Percentage Change
	(USD in millions)								(USD in millions)
PMI Australia	$	24.0		$	24.4		(1.6	)%	$	54.5		$	42.5		28.2	%
PMI Europe		5.8			1.7		—			(8.1	)		4.6		—
PMI Asia		2.5			2.3		8.7	%		5.2			4.5		15.6	%
PMI Canada		(1.2	)		(0.3	)	—			(2.7	)		(0.4	)	—
International Operations net income	$	31.1		$	28.1		10.7	%	$	48.9		$	51.2		(4.5	)%

The increase in International Operations’ net income in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007 was primarily due to changes in PMI Europe’s CDS derivative contracts, higher premiums earned and net investment income in PMI Australia, partially offset by higher losses and LAE in Australia. The decrease in net income in the first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007 was primarily due to higher losses and LAE in Australia and Europe, partially offset by higher premiums earned, net investment income and net realized investment gains in Australia.

The changes in the average foreign currency exchange rates from the second quarter and first half of 2007 to the corresponding periods in 2008 positively impacted International Operations’ net income by $3.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively, primarily due to the strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. The foreign currency translation impact is calculated using the period over period change in the average exchange rate to the current period ending net income in the local currency.

In 2008, we purchased Australian dollar foreign currency put options designed to partially mitigate the negative financial impact of a potential strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Australian dollar. The options had an aggregate pre-tax cost of $1.1 million. International Operations’ net income for the second quarter and first half of 2008 was reduced by $0.6 million and $1.1 million pre-tax, respectively, related to these put options.

The average USD/AUD currency exchange rate was 0.9443 and 0.9248 in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to 0.8312 and 0.8088 in the corresponding periods in 2007. The change in the average USD/AUD currency exchange rates from the second quarter of 2007 to the second quarter in 2008 and from the first half of 2007 to the first half of 2008 positively impacted PMI Australia’s net income by $2.9 million and $6.9 million, respectively. Net income from PMI Australia in the second quarter and first half of 2008 includes pre-tax foreign currency put option costs of $0.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

Premiums written and earned— PMI Australia’s insurance portfolio consists primarily of single premium policies. Written premiums are earned in accordance with the expected expiration of policy risk. Accordingly, written premium associated with a single premium policy is recognized as earned over a period up to nine years, with the majority of the premium recognized as earned in years two through four. In the event of policy cancellation, any unearned portion of the associated premium is recognized as earned upon notice of cancellation. The decreases in PMI Australia’s premiums written in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were driven by lower levels of RMBS and flow business. The increases in premiums earned in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were driven by the realization of unearned premiums from previous years and to a lesser extent by higher levels of terminations, combined with continued strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar.

Net investment income— The increases in net investment income in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were due to positive cash flows from operations, a strengthening Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar and a higher book

60

yield. PMI Australia’s investment portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents, increased to $1.4 billion as of June 30, 2008 from $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2007. The pre-tax book yield was 6.42% and 6.15% at June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in book yield in 2008 was primarily due to increases in market interest rates.

Net realized investment gains (losses) —Net realized investment losses in the second quarter of 2008 were primarily driven by an other-than-temporary impairment of certain investments of $1.4 million. Net realized investment gains in the first half of 2008 were due primarily to gains from the sale of equity securities. In the first quarter of 2008, PMI Australia sold principally all of its equity portfolio. The proceeds from the sale were used to purchase fixed income securities.

Losses and LAE— PMI Australia’s losses and LAE and related claims data are shown in the following table:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008		2007		Percentage Change		2008		2007		Percentage Change
	(USD in thousands, except average claim size)						(USD in thousands, except average claim size)
Claims paid including LAE	$	13,390	$	7,317	83.0	%	$	27,808	$	15,706	77.1	%
Change in net loss reserves		8,939		2,827	—			15,155		10,595	43.0	%
Losses and LAE	$	22,329	$	10,144	120.1	%	$	42,963	$	26,301	63.4	%

Number of claims paid		183		130	40.8	%		384		256	50.0	%

The increases in claims paid including LAE in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were attributable to increased delinquent loans resulting in higher claim payments driven by higher interest rates, moderating or declining home prices, and strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. We increased PMI Australia’s net loss reserves in the second quarter and first half of 2008 by $8.9 million and $15.2 million, respectively, primarily due to an increase in PMI Australia’s default inventory, higher claim rates and higher average claim sizes.

Default data is presented in the following table:

	As of June 30,
	2008		2007		Percentage Change/Variance
Policies in force	995,065		1,103,205		(9.8	)%

RMBS (residential mortgage-backed securities) default rate	0.22	%	0.10	%	0.12	pps

61

Underwriting and operating expenses— Underwriting and operating expenses increased in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007 primarily due to the stronger Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar.

NIW, insurance and risk in force— PMI Australia’s NIW includes flow channel insurance and insurance on RMBS. RMBS transactions include insurance on seasoned portfolios comprised of prime credit quality loans that have LTVs often below 80%. The following table presents the components of PMI Australia’s NIW, insurance in force and risk in force:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2008		2007		Percentage Change		2008		2007		Percentage Change
	(USD in millions)						(USD in millions)
Flow insurance written	$	4,493	$	5,959	(24.6	)%	$	9,147	$	10,259	(10.8	)%
RMBS insurance written		982		6,151	(84.0	)%		1,390		9,435	(85.3	)%
Total NIW	$	5,475	$	12,110	(54.8	)%	$	10,537	$	19,694	(46.5	)%

	As of June 30,

	(USD in millions)
Insurance in force	$	184,846	$	172,861
Risk in force	$	169,800	$	158,235

Total NIW for the second quarter and first half of 2008 decreased compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 primarily due to a significant reduction in RMBS and flow transactions due to uncertainty in credit markets and increases in interest rates. The decrease was partially offset by a strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. (See also Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.) The increases in insurance in force and risk in force as of June 30, 2008 compared to June 30, 2007 were driven primarily by a stronger Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar.

The average USD/Euro currency exchange rate was 1.5632 and 1.5312 in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to 1.3483 and 1.3297 in the corresponding periods in 2007.The changes in the average USD/Euro currency exchange rates positively impacted PMI Europe’s financial results by $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2008 and negatively impacted the financial results by $1.0 million in the first half of 2008.

Premiums written and earned— Net premiums written increased in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 primarily due to growth in new reinsurance written in the U.K. The decrease in premiums earned in the first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007 was due primarily to decreases in premiums earned associated with the Royal & SunAlliance (“R&SA”) insurance portfolio acquired in 2003. We recognize premiums associated with the acquired portfolio in accordance with established earnings patterns that are based upon management’s estimation of the expiration of the portfolio’s risk. As the portfolio continues to age, we expect premiums earned and risk in force associated with the portfolio to continue to decline. The decrease in earned premiums was partially offset by increased earnings from new business writings and the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. dollar. The increase in premiums earned in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 was due to the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. dollar.

Net gains from credit default swaps— PMI Europe is currently a party to fourteen credit default swap contracts that are classified as derivatives. Net gains from its credit default swaps were primarily a result of changes in the fair value of the derivative contracts in the second quarter of 2008 due to the significant widening of TPG’s CDS spreads during the period which

63

reduced the value of PMI Europe’s credit derivative liabilities related to nonperformance risk and the tightening of European residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) credit spreads during the period. Gains also resulted from increased cash flows from new contracts concluded in the fourth quarter of 2007. As a result of these factors, we recorded mark-to-market gains of $9.5 million and $10.3 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, related to the credit derivative liabilities.

Net investment income— PMI Europe’s net investment income consists primarily of interest income from its investment portfolio including cash deposits, and gains and losses on foreign currency re-measurement. The pre-tax book yield was 4.38% and 4.18% for June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in net investment income in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 was primarily due to an increase in book yield, foreign currency re-measurement and an increase in PMI Europe’s investment portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents.

Losses and LAE— PMI Europe’s losses and LAE includes claim payments and changes in reserves. Claim payments (excluding payments for CDS accounted as derivatives) totaled $1.7 million and $3.1 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to $1.4 million and $2.3 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. We increased PMI Europe’s loss reserves by $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2008 due to increased delinquencies from European mortgage insurance contracts. PMI Europe’s loss reserves increased by $19.5 million in the first half of 2008 primarily due to the deteriorating performance of certain U.S. exposures on which PMI Europe provided reinsurance coverage in 2005 and increased defaults on the Italian primary flow business.

Underwriting and operating expenses— The increases in underwriting and operating expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to expenses related to increased personnel in Europe principally in 2008 and also due to the strengthening of the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar.

Risk in force— PMI Europe’s risk in force as of June 30, 2008 decreased from $9.4 billion at December 31, 2007 to $9.2 billion. The decrease was primarily due to a number of credit default swap contracts being called as scheduled.

Income taxes— The effective tax rate for PMI Europe for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily driven by the Irish statutory tax rate of 12.5%. The tax rate for 2007 reflected certain U.S. tax expense derived from PMI Europe earnings that were allocated to the international business segment.

The average USD/HKD currency exchange rate was 0.1282 and 0.1283 for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to 0.1279 and 0.1280 for the corresponding periods in 2007.Changes in the average USD/HKD currency exchange rates from the second quarter of 2007 to the second quarter and first half of 2008 did not significantly impact PMI Asia’s net income.

Premiums written and earned— The increases in reinsurance premiums written and earned in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to higher levels of mortgage origination activity in Hong Kong in 2008, partially offset by the increased retention of risk and premium by PMI Asia’s leading customer due to the recent downgrades of PMI Europe which provides claim payment guarantee for PMI Asia. (See Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.)

Income taxes— PMI Asia’s statutory tax rate is 16.5%. The income tax expense in the first half of 2008 was positively affected by tax exempt income from tax exempt bonds purchased in 2007.

The average USD/CAD currency exchange rate was 0.9903 and 0.9929 in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to 0.9111 and 0.8822 in the corresponding periods in 2007. The changes in the average USD/CAD currency exchange rates negatively impacted PMI Canada’s financial results by $0.1 million and $0.3 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively.

We will be closing our operations in Canada, PMI Canada, and repatriating its excess capital to PMI. In order to repatriate excess capital we must facilitate the removal of PMI Canada’s risk in force and obtain certain regulatory approvals. We expect to be able to repatriate approximately $60 million in 2008. We estimate the costs associated with exiting Canada will be between $10 million and $13 million, pre-tax.

Premiums written and earned — The premiums written and earned in the first half of 2008 were due to a bulk primary transaction in January 2008 resulting in premiums written of $2.3 million and NIW of $85.1 million. (See Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.)

Underwriting and Operating Expense — Underwriting and operating expense increased to $2.1 million and $4.4 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, from $1.0 million and $1.1 million in the corresponding periods in 2007 due to the growth and development in the Canadian operations, primarily related to increases in employee and infrastructure costs associated with the development.

Income Taxes — PMI Canada’s combined federal and provincial statutory tax rate is approximately 33.5%. No tax benefit has been recorded for the first half of 2008. If management determines that net operating losses will more likely than not be utilized, future tax benefit could be recognized.

Equity in losses from RAM Re in the second quarter and first half of 2008 were $24.3 million and $60.6 million, respectively, compared to equity in earnings of $3.4 million and $5.7 million in the corresponding periods in 2007. These decreases were due primarily to RAM Re’s net unrealized mark-to-market losses of $166.4 million and $315.8 million on its credit derivative portfolio as a result of widening credit spreads and increases in loss reserves of $30.5 million and $76.7 million primarily related to continuing deterioration in the performance of RMBS. Equity in losses from RAM Re reduced the carrying value of our investment in RAM Re to zero as of June 30, 2008. We report our equity in earnings/losses from RAM Re on a one quarter lag. To the extent that our carrying value remains zero, we will not recognize in future periods our proportionate share of RAM Re’s losses, if any. Equity in earnings from RAM Re could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable.

67

PMI Guaranty had a net loss of $21.8 million and $23.1 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, compared to net income of $1.4 million and $2.7 million for the corresponding periods in 2007. The 2008 losses were primarily driven by total incurred losses of $26.7 million recorded in the second quarter primarily associated with the commutation of certain risks by PMI Guaranty under an agreement entered into with FGIC and AG Re, pursuant to which all of the direct FGIC business currently reinsured by PMI Guaranty was recaptured by FGIC and ceded by FGIC to AG Re. See Part I, Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Conditions and Trends Affecting our Business – PMI Guaranty.

The $88.0 million impairment of unconsolidated subsidiary in the first half of 2008 represents our impairment of our investment in FGIC in the first quarter of 2008. To the extent that our carrying value remains zero, we will not recognize in future periods our proportionate share of FGIC’s losses, if any. Equity in earnings from FGIC could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable.

Change in fair value of certain debt instruments — The change in fair value of certain debt instruments in the second quarter and first half of 2008 resulted from our adoption of SFAS No. 159 effective January 1, 2008. In connection with our adoption of SFAS No. 159, we elected the fair value option presented by SFAS No. 159 with respect to certain of our long term debt instruments. The realized gains of $17.0 million and $45.7 million in the second quarter and first half of 2008, respectively, were due to fluctuations of fair value in the first half of 2008 primarily due to changes in credit spreads and interest rates. (See Item 1, Note 8.Fair Value Disclosures.)

Share-based compensation expenses— The decreases in share-based compensation in the second quarter and first half of 2008 from the corresponding periods in 2007 were primarily due to a decrease in the number and fair value of share-based compensation granted in 2008. We expect share-based compensation expenses to be lower for the year ended December 31, 2008 than 2007.

Other operating expenses — The changes in other operating expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the corresponding periods in 2007 were due to increased legal fees partially offset by decreases in employee compensation costs and contract underwriting remedies.

69

Income taxes — The tax rates of 33.3% for the second quarter and 50.0% for the first half of 2008 are higher than the 2007 tax rates of 28.8% and 28.6% for the corresponding periods in 2007 due primarily to increased allocations of certain federal and state taxes to the Corporate and Other business segment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Funds

The PMI Group Liquidity— The PMI Group’s liquidity is primarily dependent upon: (i) The PMI Group’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends to The PMI Group; (ii) financing activities in the capital markets; and (iii) maturing or refunded investments and investment income from The PMI Group’s stand-alone investment portfolio. The PMI Group’s ability to access these sources depends on, among other things, the financial performance of The PMI Group’s subsidiaries, regulatory restrictions on the ability of The PMI Group’s insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends, The PMI Group’s and its subsidiaries’ ratings by the rating agencies, and restrictions and agreements to which The PMI Group or its subsidiaries are subject that restrict their ability to pay dividends, incur debt or issue equity securities.

The PMI Group’s principal uses of liquidity are the payment of operating costs, income taxes (which are predominantly reimbursed by its subsidiaries), principal and interest on its capital instruments, payments of dividends to shareholders, repurchases of its common shares, purchases of investments, and capital investments in and for its subsidiaries.

The PMI Group’s available funds, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and investments, were $251.6 million at June 30, 2008 compared to $201.5 million at June 30, 2007. It is our present intention to maintain at least $75 million of liquidity at our holding company in connection with rating agency considerations.

As a result of higher losses and LAE in 2007 and the first half of 2008, higher projected losses for the second half of 2008 and potential growth in insurance in force, we will likely need to raise significant amounts of additional capital in 2008 and 2009. Although we do not yet know what form these capital raising activities will take, we expect to seek to raise additional capital through a variety of types of transactions. On an ongoing basis, we intend to explore available alternatives to enhance our liquidity at PMI and The PMI Group, including disposition of equity investments (which could include certain wholly-owned subsidiaries) or portions thereof, debt or equity offerings, obtaining reinsurance for our insurance subsidiaries’ existing or future books of business, and/or limiting the new insurance written by our insurance subsidiaries. Given current market conditions generally and in our industry, there can be no assurance that we will be able to consummate any capital raising transactions on favorable terms or at all.

U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations Liquidity—The principal uses of U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations’ liquidity are the payment of operating expenses, claim payments, taxes, dividends to The PMI Group and the growth of its investment portfolio. The principal sources of U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations’ liquidity are written premiums and net investment income. Due to the factors described above, we anticipate that PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. will require significant additional capital in 2008 and 2009.

International Operations and Financial Guaranty Liquidity—The principal uses of these segments’ liquidity are the payment of operating expenses, claim payments, and taxes and growth of its investment portfolio. The principal sources of these segments’ liquidity are written premiums, investment maturities and net investment income. We have in the past dedicated increasing amounts of capital resources to expand our International Operations. Capital constraints described above may prevent us from continuing to expend such resources, which in turn may limit our international subsidiaries’ abilities to engage in capital intensive transactions in 2008 and thereafter. Negative rating agency actions with respect to PMI and certain of our

71

International subsidiaries have negatively affected, and could further negatively affect in the future, the financial condition and results of operations of our International operations. (See Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.)

Credit Facility

In the first quarter of 2008 we amended our existing revolving credit facility. The amendment to the credit facility reduced the amount available under the facility from $400 million to $300 million, subject to additional reductions in the event of certain asset sales or equity or debt issuances, with the maximum amount by which the facility can be reduced equal to $150 million. The facility includes a $50 million letter of credit sub-limit. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, our ability to borrow under the facility was subject to a number of conditions, including that the stock of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. (“MIC”) be pledged in favor of the lenders under the facility and noteholders under certain of our senior notes. On April 24, 2008, we satisfied this condition by entering into a Shared Collateral Pledge Agreement with U.S. Bank National Association as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”), pursuant to which we granted a security interest in the stock of MIC in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of both the lenders under the revolving credit facility and the noteholders under certain of our senior notes. In May 2008, we borrowed $200 million under the facility. There are three outstanding letters of credit totaling approximately $2 million.

The amendment contains changes and additions to the existing financial covenants. The amendment reduces the requirement for our Adjusted Consolidated Net Worth (as defined in the facility) from $2.19 billion to $1.5 billion. In addition, under the amended facility, mark-to-market unrealized losses and gains on swap contracts with respect to PMI Europe, FGIC and RAM Re are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Consolidated Net Worth and accumulated other comprehensive income is included. The amended facility contains a risk-to-capital ratio requirement of 20 to 1 with respect to MIC and a maximum total debt to total capitalization percentage requirement of 35%.

The amended facility also contains additional covenants and restrictions. Among these are restrictions on asset dispositions and investments. The amended facility includes additional events of default, including MIC receiving a notice from either of the GSEs that it has been suspended as an approved mortgage insurer and having failed to cure such suspension within 30 days, MIC being disqualified or terminated as an approved mortgage insurer by either of the GSEs, MIC failing to maintain a financial strength rating of at least Baa from Moody’s and failing to maintain a financial strength rating of at least BBB from Standard & Poor’s, or our material insurance subsidiaries (as defined in the facility) being subject to certain regulatory actions or restrictions by their respective primary insurance regulators that are not cured within specified periods of time. Upon an event of default, we could have to repay all outstanding indebtedness and would be unable to draw on the facility, and the lenders would have the right to terminate their loan commitments under the facility. In addition, an event of default under the facility also could trigger an event of default under our outstanding senior notes.

Dividends to The PMI Group

PMI’s ability to pay dividends to The PMI Group is affected by state insurance laws, credit agreements, rating agencies, and the discretion of insurance regulatory authorities. The laws of

72

Arizona, PMI’s state of domicile for insurance regulatory purposes, provide that PMI may pay dividends out of any available surplus account, without prior approval of the Director of the Arizona Department of Insurance, during any 12-month period in an amount not to exceed the lesser of 10% of policyholders’ surplus as of the preceding year end or the prior calendar year’s net investment income. A dividend that exceeds the foregoing threshold is deemed an “extraordinary dividend” and requires the prior approval of the Director of the Arizona Department of Insurance. In December 2006, the Director of the Arizona Department of Insurance approved an extraordinary dividend request of $250 million and a $100 million installment was paid to The PMI Group in the form of a return of capital. In April 2007, an additional $200 million extraordinary dividend was approved by the Director of the Arizona Department of Insurance. In 2007, PMI paid $165 million in dividends to The PMI Group. We do not anticipate that PMI will pay any dividends to The PMI Group in 2008. Any payment of the remaining $185 million of approved dividends by PMI to The PMI Group requires prior written notice to the Director of the Arizona Department of Insurance, who could withdraw approval of such dividend.

Other states may also limit or restrict PMI’s ability to pay shareholder dividends. For example, California and New York prohibit mortgage insurers from declaring dividends except from the surplus of undivided profits over the aggregate of their paid-in capital, paid-in surplus and contingency reserves.

PMI’s ability to pay dividends is also subject to restriction under the terms of a runoff support agreement with Allstate Insurance Corporation. Under the Allstate agreement, PMI may not pay a dividend if, after the payment of that dividend, PMI’s risk-to-capital ratio would equal or exceed 23 to 1. As of June 30, 2008, PMI’s risk-to-capital ratio was 12.6 to 1 compared to 8.6 to 1 at June 30, 2007.

PMI Guaranty Co. received all regulatory approvals and entered into an agreement to transfer its entire FGIC-related reinsurance portfolio to a third party. In early August of 2008, PMI Guaranty paid approximately $144 million of its excess capital to The PMI Group. The PMI Group expects to reinvest at least 80% of the capital into U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations before the end of the third quarter of 2008.

Consolidated Contractual Obligations

Our consolidated contractual obligations include reserves for losses and LAE, long-term debt obligations, operating lease obligations, capital lease obligations, and purchase obligations. Most of our purchase obligations are capital expenditure commitments that will be used for technology improvements. We have lease obligations under certain non-cancelable operating leases. In addition, we may be committed to fund, if called upon to do so, $5.8 million of additional equity in certain limited partnership investments.

The increases in net investment income in the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to the same periods in 2007 were primarily due to the growth of PMI’s and PMI Australia’s investment portfolio and the strengthening of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar. PMI’s net investment income was negatively affected by a decrease in pre-tax book yield, partially offset by growth in the portfolio. Our consolidated pre-tax book yield was 5.13% and 5.43% as of June 30, 2008, and 2007, respectively.

Our consolidated investment portfolio holds primarily investment grade securities comprised of readily marketable fixed income and equity securities. At June 30, 2008, the fair value of these securities in our consolidated investment portfolio increased to $4.1 billion as of June 30, 2008 from $3.7 billion as of December 31, 2007. The increase was due primarily to growth in PMI’s and PMI Australia’s investment portfolio and increases in foreign currency translation rates and changes in the composition of our investment portfolio. In the first quarter of 2008 we sold a significant portion of certain investments in PMI’s and PMI Australia’s investment portfolios. The decrease in equity securities in PMI and PMI Australia’s investment portfolios was offset by increased purchases of fixed income securities.

Our consolidated investment portfolio consists primarily of publicly traded municipal bonds, U.S. and foreign government bonds and corporate bonds. In accordance with SFAS No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, our entire investment portfolio is designated as available-for-sale and reported at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.

The following table summarizes the rating distributions of our consolidated investment portfolio (including cash and cash equivalents, excluding common stocks) as of June 30, 2008:

As of June 30, 2008, approximately $955.8 million, or 20.7% of our consolidated investment portfolio (including cash and cash equivalents, excluding common stocks) was insured by monoline financial guarantors. The financial guarantors include MBIA, FGIC, FSA, AMBAC and others. The table below presents the fair value of securities and the percentage of our consolidated investment portfolio that are insured by these financial guarantors as of June 30, 2008.

	Fair Value (in millions)		% of Consolidated Investments
MBIA	$	270.8	5.9	%
FGIC		214.8	4.6	%

AMBAC		206.8	4.5	%
Other		95.5	2.1	%
Total	$	955.8	20.7	%

We do not rely on the financial guarantees as a principal source of repayment when evaluating securities for purchase. Rather, securities are evaluated primarily based on the underlying issuer’s credit quality. During 2008, several of the financial guarantors listed above were downgraded by one or more of the rating agencies. A downgrade of a financial guarantor may have an adverse effect on the fair value of investments insured by the downgraded financial guarantor. If we determine that declines in the fair values of our investments are other-than-temporary, we record a realized loss. The table below illustrates, as of June 30, 2008, the underlying rating distributions of our consolidated investment portfolio (including cash and cash equivalents, excluding common stocks), excluding the benefit of the financial guarantees provided by these financial guarantors. Underlying ratings, excluding the benefit of financial guarantors, are based upon the higher underlying rating assigned by S&P or Moody’s when an underlying rating exists from either rating agency or, when an external rating is not available, the underlying rating is included in the not rated category.

Capital Support Obligations

PMI has entered into capital support agreements with PMI Australia, PMI Europe, PMI Guaranty and PMI Canada. The PMI Group guarantees the performance of PMI’s capital support obligations to PMI Australia, PMI Europe and PMI Guaranty. PMI’s capital support agreements with PMI Australia and PMI Europe could require PMI to make additional capital contributions to those subsidiaries. As a result of PMI Guaranty’s novation agreement and its cessation of new business writings and the termination of our Canadian operations in PMI Canada, we do not

76

believe that there are material support obligations remaining under PMI’s capital support agreements with PMI Guaranty and PMI Canada, nor under the corresponding guarantee from The PMI Group with respect to PMI Guaranty.

PMI also has a capital support agreement whereby it agreed to contribute funds, under specified conditions, to maintain CMG MI’s risk-to-capital ratio at or below 19.0 to 1. PMI’s obligation under the agreement is limited to an aggregate of $37.7 million.

Cash Flows

On a consolidated basis, our principal sources of funds are cash flows generated by our insurance subsidiaries and investment income derived from our investment portfolios. One of the primary goals of our cash management policy is to ensure that we have sufficient funds on hand to pay obligations when they are due. We believe that we have sufficient cash to meet these and other of our short- and medium-term obligations. However, as described above, we expect that we will need to raise significant additional capital in 2008 as the result of rating agency capital requirements to maintain our and our insurance subsidiaries’ ratings.

Consolidated cash flows generated by operating activities, including premiums, investment income, underwriting and operating expenses and losses, were $ 258.9 million in the first six months of 2008 compared to $288.5 million in the first six months of 2007. Cash flows from operations decreased primarily due to increases in claim payments from PMI. We expect cash flows from operating activities to be negatively affected throughout 2008 due to payment of claims from loss reserves recorded by PMI in 2007 and 2008.

Consolidated cash flows used in investing activities in the first six months of 2008, including purchases and sales of investments and capital expenditures, were $389.4 million compared to consolidated cash flows used in investing activities of $234.8 million in the first six months of 2007. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities in the first six months of 2008 compared to the corresponding period in 2007 was due primarily to increased purchases of fixed income securities.

Consolidated cash flows provided by financing activities, were $199.6 million in the first six months of 2008 compared to $13.1 million of cash used in the first six months of 2007. The significant increase in cash provided by financing activities in 2008 was due to the $200 million of proceeds from our line of credit in the first half of 2008.

Recent Developments Relating to Mortgage Insurance Companies and PMI Guaranty Ratings

On April 8, 2008, Standard & Poor’s downgraded its counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings on PMI Mortgage Insurance Co., PMI Insurance Co., PMI Guaranty and PMI Europe from “AA” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications) to “A+” (Negative Outlook). Standard & Poor’s also downgraded its counterparty credit rating on The PMI Group from “A” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications) to “BBB+” (Negative Outlook). In taking these actions, Standard & Poor’s noted that the downgrades reflected, among other things, “weaker-than-expected results for the fourth quarter of 2007 and the continued deterioration in key variables that influence claims for mortgage insurance.” Also on April 8, 2008, Standard & Poor’s placed its “AA-” counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings on CMG MI on CreditWatch with Negative Implications. Standard & Poor’s indicated that it had taken this action in order to review the impact that the downgrade of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. will have on CMG MI.

On April 9, 2008, Standard & Poor’s downgraded its financial strength rating on PMI Australia from “AA” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications) to a rating of “AA-” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications). In taking its actions, Standard & Poor’s noted that the CreditWatch “reflects PMI Group’s intention to implement various operational measures to further protect the Australian subsidiary’s financial strength at the “AA-” level . . . Should the[se] segmented rating measures not be implemented, it is likely the rating will be equated with that of PMI.”

On April 15, 2008, Standard & Poor’s removed its “AA-” counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings on CMG MI from CreditWatch with Negative Implications. At the same time, Standard & Poor’s affirmed its ratings on CMG MI with a negative outlook. In taking these actions, Standard & Poor’s indicated that it viewed the April 8, 2008 downgrade of PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. as not having a material impact on CMG MI’s financial strength.

On June 5, 2008, Fitch lowered its insurer financial strength ratings on PMI, PMI Europe, and PMI Guaranty to “A+” (Rating Watch Negative) from “AA” (Rating Watch Negative) and its long-term issuer rating of The PMI Group to “BBB+” (Rating Watch Negative) from “A” (Rating Watch Negative). Fitch also lowered its insurer financial strength rating on PMI Australia to a rating of “AA-” from “AA” while improving its rating outlook of PMI Australia from “Rating Watch Negative” to “Negative Outlook”.

On June 26, 2008, Standard & Poor’s affirmed PMI Australia’s insurer financial strength rating at “AA-” and improved its rating outlook to “Negative Outlook” from “CreditWatch with Negative Implications”.

78

On July 9, 2008, Moody’s lowered its insurer financial strength rating on PMI to “A3” (Negative Outlook) from “Aa2” (On Review for Possible Downgrade), and The PMI Group’s senior debt rating to “Baa3” (Negative Outlook) from “A1” (On Review for Possible Downgrade). Moody’s also lowered the ratings of PMI Europe and PMI Guaranty Co. to “A3” (Negative Outlook) from “Aa3” (On Review for Possible Downgrade), and the ratings of PMI Australia to a rating of “Aa3” (On Review for Possible Downgrade) from “Aa2” (On Review for Possible Downgrade).

Determinations of ratings by the rating agencies are affected by a variety of factors, including macroeconomic conditions, economic conditions affecting the mortgage insurance industry, changes in business prospects, regulatory conditions, competition, underwriting and investment losses and the perceived need for additional capital. There can be no assurance that our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries will not be downgraded in the future.

Any additional ratings downgrade in the future, or the announcement of a potential downgrade or other concern relating to the financial strength of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, our ability to compete, our holding company debt ratings, the ratings or performance of our other insurance subsidiaries (who may receive capital support from the downgraded subsidiary), or the ratings of CMG MI. (See Part II, Item 1A.Risk Factors –We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.)

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,as well as disclosures included elsewhere in this report, are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingencies. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. We believe that the following critical accounting estimates involved significant judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Reserves for Losses and LAE

We establish reserves for losses and LAE to recognize the liability of unpaid losses related to insured mortgages that are in default. We do not rely on a single estimate to determine our loss and LAE reserves. To ensure the reasonableness of our ultimate estimates, we develop scenarios using generally recognized actuarial projection methodologies that result in various possible losses and LAE.

Changes in loss reserves can materially affect our consolidated net income. The process of estimating loss reserves requires us to forecast the interest rate, employment and housing market environments, which are highly uncertain. Therefore, the process requires significant management judgment and estimates. The use of different estimates would have resulted in the establishment of different reserves. In addition, changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period based on the economic conditions. We review the judgments made in our prior period estimation process and adjust our current assumptions as appropriate. While our assumptions are based in part upon historical data, the loss provisioning process is complex and subjective and, therefore, the ultimate liability may vary significantly from our estimates.

The following table shows the reasonable range of loss and LAE reserves, as determined by our actuaries, and recorded reserves for losses and LAE (gross of recoverables) as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 on a segment and consolidated basis:

U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations — We establish PMI’s reserves for losses and LAE based upon our estimate of unpaid losses and LAE on (i) reported mortgage loans in default and (ii) estimated defaults incurred but not reported to PMI by its customers. We believe the amounts recorded represent the most likely outcome within the actuarial ranges.

Our best estimate of PMI’s reserves for losses and LAE is derived primarily from our analysis of PMI’s default and loss experience. The key assumptions used in the estimation process are expected claim rates, average claim sizes and costs to settle claims. We evaluate our assumptions in light of PMI’s historical patterns of claim payments, loss experience in past and current economic environments, the seasoning of PMI’s various books of business, PMI’s coverage levels, the credit quality profile of PMI’s portfolios, and the geographic mix of PMI’s business. Our assumptions are influenced by historical loss patterns and are adjusted to reflect recent loss trends. Our assumptions are also influenced by our assessment of current and future economic conditions, including trends in housing prices, unemployment and interest rates. Our estimation process uses generally recognized actuarial projection methodologies. As part of our estimation process, we also evaluate various scenarios representing possible losses and LAE under different economic assumptions.

We established PMI’s reserves at June 30, 2008 based on, among other factors, our evaluation of PMI’s estimated future claim rates and average claim sizes. Management’s best estimate of reserves for losses at June 30, 2008 was approximately the mid-point of the actuarial range.

Our increases to the reserve balance in the first half of 2008 were primarily due to PMI’s higher default inventory and higher expected claim rates and claim sizes on reported delinquencies. Continuing deterioration of the U.S. housing and mortgage markets caused PMI’s default inventory, claim rates and claim sizes to increase in the first half of 2008. Higher claim rates have been driven by, among other things, home price declines and diminished availability of certain loan products, both of which constrain refinancing opportunities, and result in a decrease in the percentage of the default inventory that is returning to current status. The increase in PMI’s average claim sizes has been driven by high loan sizes and coverage levels in PMI’s portfolio and declining home prices which limit PMI’s loss mitigation opportunities. The table below provides a reconciliation of our U.S. Mortgage Insurance segment’s beginning and ending reserves for losses and LAE for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

	Six Months Ended June 30,

The above loss reserve reconciliation shows the components of our losses and LAE reserve changes for the periods presented. Losses and LAE payments of $367.6 million and $148.5 million for the periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, reflect amounts paid during the periods presented and are not subject to estimation. Total losses and LAE incurred of $1.1 billion and $227.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, are management’s best estimates of ultimate losses and LAE and, therefore, are subject to change. The changes in our estimates are principally reflected in the losses and LAE incurred line item which shows an increase to losses and LAE incurred related to prior years of $245.9 million and $45.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The table below breaks down the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 changes in reserves related to prior years by particular accident years:

Total									$	245.9		$	45.7

The $ 245.9 million and $ 45.7 million increases related to prior years in the first half of 2008 and 2007, respectively, were due to re-estimations of ultimate loss rates from those established at the original notice of default, updated through the periods presented. The $ 245.9 million increase in prior years’ reserves during the first half of 2008 reflected the significant weakening of the housing and mortgage markets and was driven by lower cure rates, higher claim rates and higher claim sizes. The $ 45.7 million increase in prior years’ reserves during the first half of 2007 was driven by higher than estimated claim sizes on pending delinquencies, partially offset by a reduction in the incurred but not reported estimate. These re-estimations of ultimate loss rates are the result of management’s periodic review of estimated claim amounts in light of actual claim amounts, loss development data and ultimate claim rates. Future declines in PMI’s cure rate, or higher default and claim rates or claim sizes could lead to further increases in losses and LAE.

The following table shows a breakdown of reserves for losses and LAE by primary and pool insurance:

	June 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Primary insurance	$	2,037,433	$	1,054,326
Pool insurance		95,199		78,754
Total reserves for losses and LAE	$	2,132,632	$	1,133,080

The following table shows a breakdown of reserves for losses and LAE by loans in default, incurred but not reported or IBNR, and the cost to settle claims, or LAE:

	June 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Loans in default	$	2,057,681	$	1,062,150

To provide a measure of sensitivity of pre-tax income to changes in loss reserve estimates, we estimate that: (i) for every 5% change in our estimate of the future average claim sizesorevery 5% change in our estimate of the future claim rates with respect to the June 30, 2008 reserves for losses and LAE, the effect on pre-tax income would be an increase or decrease of approximately $102.9 million; (ii) for every 5% change in our estimate of incurred but not reported loans in default as of June 30, 2008, the effect on pre-tax income would be approximately $2.5 million; and (iii) for every 5% change in our estimate of the future cost of claims settlement expenses as of June 30, 2008, the effect on pre-tax income would be approximately $1.3 million.

If either the claim rate or claim size, or a combination of the claim rate and claim size, were to increase approximately 16% above our current estimates, we would reach the top of our actuarially determined range. Conversely, if the claim rate or claim size, or a combination of the claim rate and claim size, were to decrease by approximately 15% of our current estimates, we would reach the bottom end of our actuarially determined range.

The establishment of loss reserves is subject to inherent uncertainty and requires judgment by management. The actual amount of claim payments may vary substantially from the loss reserve estimates. For example, the relationship of a change in assumption relating to future average claim sizes, claim rates or cost of claims settlement to the change in value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the value of the loss and LAE reserves is calculated without changing any other assumption. Changes in one factor may result in changes in another which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities. Changes in factors such as persistency or cure rates can also affect the actual losses incurred. To the extent persistency increases and assuming all other variables remain constant, the absolute dollars of claims paid will increase as insurance in force will remain in place longer, thereby generating a higher potential for future incidences of loss. Conversely, if persistency were to decline, absolute claim payments would decline. In addition, changes in cure rates would positively or negatively affect total losses if cure rates increased or decreased, respectively.

International Operations— PMI Australia’s reserves for losses and LAE are based upon estimated unpaid losses and LAE on reported defaults and estimated defaults incurred but not reported. The key assumptions we use to derive PMI Australia’s loss and LAE reserves include estimates of PMI Australia’s expected claim rates, average claim sizes, LAE, and net expected future claim recoveries. These assumptions are evaluated in light of similar factors used by PMI. In connection with the preparation and filing of this report, our actuaries determined an actuarial range for PMI Australia’s reserves for losses and LAE, at June 30, 2008, of $75.5 million to $102.4 million. As of June 30, 2008, PMI Australia’s recorded reserves for losses and LAE were $86.7 million, which represented our best estimate. In arriving at this estimate, we reviewed the key assumptions described above, the analysis performed by our actuaries and current economic and real estate market condition in Australia. Our estimate of $86.7 million is a 33.2% increase from PMI Australia’s reserve balance of $65.1 million at December 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to the increase in PMI Australia’s default inventory in 2008 and higher claim rates and average claim sizes. PMI Australia’s default inventory increased to 3,573 loans as of June 30, 2008 from 2,666 loans as of December 31, 2007.

PMI Europe establishes loss reserves for all of its insurance and reinsurance business and for credit default swap transactions entered into before July 1, 2003. Revenue, losses and other expenses associated with credit default swaps executed on or after July 1, 2003 are recognized through derivative accounting treatment. PMI Europe’s loss reserving methodology contains two

84

components: case reserves and IBNR reserves. Case and IBNR reserves are based upon factors which include, but are not limited to, our analysis of arrears and loss payment reports, loss assumptions derived from pricing analyses, our view of current and future economic conditions and industry information. Our actuaries calculated a range for PMI Europe’s loss reserves at June 30, 2008 of $42.0 million to $89.0 million. PMI Europe’s recorded loss reserves at June 30, 2008 were $62.6 million, which represented our best estimate and an increase of $21.0 million from PMI Europe’s loss reserve balance of $41.6 million at December 31, 2007. The increase to PMI Europe’s loss reserves in 2008 was primarily due to the deteriorating performance of several U.S. exposures on which PMI Europe provided reinsurance coverage.

PMI Asia’s loss reserves at June 30, 2008 were $0.2 million, which represents our best estimate. Our actuaries calculated a range for PMI Asia’s loss reserves at June 30, 2008 of $0.1 million to $0.2 million.

The following table shows a breakdown of International Operations’ loss and LAE reserves:

	June 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Loans in default	$	125,287	$	92,914
IBNR		22,207		12,204
Cost to settle claims (LAE)		2,007		1,751
Total loss and LAE reserves	$	149,501	$	106,869

The following table provides a reconciliation of our International Operations segment’s beginning and ending reserves for losses and LAE for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

	2008			2007
	(Dollars in millions)

Losses and LAE incurred (principally with respect to defaults occurring in)
Current year		42.5			19.3
Prior years		23.0			9.0
Total incurred		65.5			28.3
Losses and LAE payments (principally with respect to defaults occurring in)

Net balance at June 30		148.4			61.5
Reinsurance recoverables		1.1			0.9
Balance at June 30	$	149.5		$	62.4

The increases in losses and LAE incurred relating to prior years of $ 23.0 million and $9.0 million in the first six months of 2008 and 2007, respectively, were primarily due to a loss provision related to deteriorating performance of several U.S. exposures on which PMI Europe provided reinsurance coverage.

85

PMI Guaranty –PMI Guaranty’s loss reserves of $7.3 million include $22.9 million related to the agreement between PMI Guaranty, FGIC, and AG Re under which PMI Guaranty commuted certain risks with FGIC. PMI Guaranty’s loss reserves were partially offset by anticipated non-reinsurance recoveries of $15.7 million that are related to a separate insurance contract.

Investment Securities

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment — We have a committee review process for all securities in our investment portfolio, including a process for reviewing impairment losses. Factors considered when assessing impairment include:

• a decline in the market value of a security below cost or amortized cost for a continuous period of at least six months;

• the severity and nature of the decline in market value below cost regardless of the duration of the decline;

• recent credit downgrades of the applicable security or the issuer by the rating agencies;

• the financial condition of the applicable issuer;

• whether scheduled interest payments are past due; and

• whether we have the ability and intent to hold the security for a sufficient period of time to allow for anticipated recoveries in fair value.

If we believe a decline in the value of a particular investment is temporary and we have the intent and ability to hold to recovery, we record the decline as an unrealized loss on our consolidated balance sheet under “accumulated other comprehensive income” in shareholders’ equity. If we believe the decline is other-than-temporary, we write-down the carrying value of the investment and record a realized loss in our consolidated statement of operations under “net realized investment gains.” Our assessment of a decline in value includes management’s current assessment of the factors noted above. If that assessment changes in the future, we may ultimately record a loss after having originally concluded that the decline in value was temporary.

The following table shows our investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, as of June 30, 2008 and 2007:

Unrealized losses in 2008 on fixed income securities were primarily due to an increase in interest rates and widening of credit spreads. Unrealized losses on preferred securities were primarily due to the widening of credit and sector spreads. We determined that the decline in the fair value of certain investments met the definition of other-than-temporary impairment and recognized realized losses of $19.0 million and $1.3 million for the first half of 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

We generate a significant portion of our revenues from mortgage insurance premiums on either a monthly, annual or single payment basis. Premiums written on a monthly basis are earned as coverage is provided. Premiums written on an annual basis are earned on a monthly pro-rata basis over the year of coverage. Primary mortgage insurance premiums written on policies covering more than one year are referred to as single premiums. A portion of revenue on single premiums is recognized in premiums earned in the current period, and the remaining portion is deferred as unearned premiums and earned over the expected life of the policy. If single premium policies related to insured loans are cancelled due to repayment by the borrower, and the premium is non-refundable, then the remaining unearned premium related to each cancelled policy is recognized as earned premiums upon notification of the cancellation. The length of the earnings pattern for single premium products is based on a range of seven to fifteen years, and the rates used to determine the earnings of single premiums are estimates based on actuarial analysis of the

87

expiration of risk. Single premiums written accounted for 15.6% and 19.3% of gross premiums written in the first half of 2008 and 2007, respectively, and came predominantly from PMI Australia in our International Operations segment. The premium earnings process generally begins upon receipt of the initial premium payment. The premiums earnings pattern methodology is an estimation process and, accordingly, we review the premium earnings cycle for each policy acquisition year (“Book Year”) annually and any adjustments to these estimates are reflected for each Book Year as appropriate.

Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs

Our policy acquisition costs are those costs that vary with, and are primarily related to, our acquisition, underwriting and processing of new mortgage insurance policies, including contract underwriting and sales related activities. To the extent we provide contract underwriting services on loans that do not require mortgage insurance, associated underwriting costs are not deferred. We defer policy acquisition costs when incurred and amortize these costs in proportion to estimated gross profits for each policy year by type of insurance contract (i.e. monthly, annual and single premium). The amortization estimates for each underwriting year are monitored regularly to reflect actual experience and any changes to persistency or loss development by type of insurance contract. The deferred costs related to single premium policies are adjusted as appropriate for policy cancellations to be consistent with our revenue recognition policy. We review our estimation process, specifically related to single premium policies, on a regular basis and any adjustments made to the estimates are reflected in the current period’s consolidated net income.

Deferred policy acquisition costs are reviewed periodically to determine that they do not exceed recoverable amounts, after considering investment income. For the year ended December 31, 2007, we performed a recoverability analysis of deferred costs relating to new mortgage insurance policies acquired in 2007. As a result of this analysis, we impaired PMI’s deferred policy acquisition cost asset by $33.6 million relating to the 2007 book year. This impairment of all remaining costs associated with the 2007 book year as of December 31, 2007 was driven by our expected loss development under various scenarios and our determination that the remaining costs were not recoverable. For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, due to the novation of principally all of PMI Guaranty’s risk in force, we impaired the remaining deferred policy acquisition cost assets related to PMI Guaranty’s operations by $3.6 million reducing its value to zero.

Impairment Analysis of Investments in Unconsolidated Subsidiaries

Periodically, or as events dictate, we evaluate potential impairment of our investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries. Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 18,The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock, provides criteria for determining potential impairment. In the event a loss in value of an investment is determined to be an other-than-temporary decline, an impairment loss would be recognized in our consolidated statement of operations. Evidence of a loss in value that could indicate impairment might include, but would not necessarily be limited to, the absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or the inability of the investee to sustain an earnings capacity which would justify the carrying amount of the investment. Realized gains or losses resulting from the sale of our ownership interests of unconsolidated subsidiaries are recognized in net realized investment gains or losses in the consolidated statement of operations.

88

In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, we determined that our investment in FGIC was other-than-temporarily impaired and reduced the carrying value of our investment in FGIC from $103.6 million at December 31, 2007 to zero. To the extent that our carrying value remains zero, we will not recognize in future periods our proportionate share of FGIC’s losses, if any. Equity in earnings from FGIC could be recognized in the future to the extent those earnings are deemed recoverable.

Premium Deficiency Analysis

We perform an analysis for premium deficiency using assumptions based on our best estimate when the analysis is performed. The calculation for premium deficiency requires significant judgment and includes estimates of future expected premiums, expected claims, loss adjustment expenses and maintenance costs as of the date of the test. The calculation of future expected premiums uses assumptions for persistency and termination levels on policies currently in force. Assumptions for future expected losses include future expected average claim sizes and claim rates which are based on the current default rate and expected future defaults. Investment income is also considered in the premium deficiency calculation. For the calculation of investment income we use our pre-tax investment yield.

We perform premium deficiency analyses quarterly on a single book basis for the U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations. A premium deficiency analysis was performed as of June 30, 2008. We determined there was no premium deficiency in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations segment despite significant losses in the second quarter and first half of 2008. To the extent premium levels and actual loss experience differ from our assumptions, our results could be negatively affected in future periods.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of June 30, 2008, our consolidated investment portfolio was $4.1 billion. The fair value of investments in our portfolio is calculated from independent market quotations, and is interest rate sensitive and subject to change based on interest rate movements. As of June 30, 2008, 93.3% of our investments were long-term fixed income securities, primarily U.S. municipal bonds. As interest rates fall, the fair value of fixed income securities generally increases, and as interest rates rise, the fair value of fixed income securities generally decreases. The following table summarizes the estimated change in fair value and the accounting effect on comprehensive income (pre-tax) for our consolidated investment portfolio based upon specified hypothetical changes in interest rates as of June 30, 2008:

	Estimated Increase (Decrease) in Fair Value
	(Dollars in thousands)
300 basis point decline	$	541,972
200 basis point decline	$	382,780
100 basis point decline	$	219,490
100 basis point rise	$	(205,455	)
200 basis point rise	$	(428,616	)
300 basis point rise	$	(629,779	)

These hypothetical estimates of changes in fair value are primarily related to our fixed-income securities as the fair values of fixed-income securities generally fluctuate with increases or decreases in interest rates. The weighted average option-adjusted duration of our consolidated investment portfolio including cash and cash equivalents was 5.3 as of June 30, 2008.

89

We analyze the sensitivity of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in our foreign subsidiaries denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. This estimate is calculated using the spot exchange rates as of June 30, 2008 and respective current period end investment balances in our foreign subsidiaries in the applicable foreign currencies. The following table summarizes the estimated changes in the investments in our foreign subsidiaries based upon specified hypothetical percentage changes in foreign currency exchange rates as of June 30, 2008, with all other factors remaining constant:

* Since the Hong Kong dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar, there has not been a significant impact to the recorded translation adjustment from Hong Kong dollar fluctuations. To the extent the currency becomes de-pegged in whole or on a partial basis, fluctuations could occur in the future.

The changes in the foreign currency exchange rates from the second quarter of 2007 to the second quarter of 2008 positively affected our investments in our foreign subsidiaries by $135.4 million. This foreign currency translation impact is calculated by applying the period over period change in the period end spot exchange rates to the current period end investment balance of our foreign subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2008, $1.4 billion, excluding cash and cash equivalents of our invested assets, was held by PMI Australia and was predominantly denominated in the Australian dollars. As of June 30, 2008, $ 0.2 billion, excluding cash and cash equivalents of our invested assets, was held by PMI Europe and was denominated primarily in Euros. The above table shows the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar relative to the Australian dollar, Euro, Hong Kong dollar and Canadian dollar as of June 30, 2008 and 2007. The value of the Australian dollar, Euro, and Canadian dollar strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar as of June 30, 2008 compared to June 30, 2007.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, in March 2008, we and certain of our executive officers were named in a securities class action complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California(Lori Weinrib v. The PMI Group, Inc., L. Stephen Smith, David H. Katkov and Donald P. Lofe, Jr.). Also in March 2008, we and the same executive officers were named in a second securities fraud class action complaint also filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California(Kimberly D. Holt v. The PMI Group, Inc., L. Stephen Smith, David H. Katkov and Donald P. Lofe, Jr.). On April 17, 2008, the court issued an order consolidating the two actions for pretrial purposes. On June 20, 2008, the court appointed a lead plaintiff in the action. The plaintiffs’ consolidated complaint is scheduled to be filed on or before August 28, 2008. We continue to believe that we have meritorious defenses and intend to defend ourselves vigorously.

Additionally, in April 2008, two shareholder derivative complaints,The Port Authority of Allegheny County Retirement and Disability Allowance Plan v. L. Stephen Smith, et. al., andJorge Torres, Derivatively on Behalf of The PMI Group, Inc. v. L. Stephen Smith, et. al., were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California and the Superior Court of the State of California in the County of Contra Costa, respectively, naming as defendants certain present and former PMI Group executive officers and directors, and naming The PMI Group as a nominal defendant. Both actions have been stayed pending resolution of the defendants’ motions to dismiss the consolidated securities class actions. We continue to believe that we have meritorious defenses and intend to defend ourselves vigorously.

Various other legal actions and regulatory reviews are currently pending that involve us and specific aspects of our conduct of business. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these matters, in the opinion of management, based upon the information available as of the date of these financial statements, the expected ultimate liability in one or more of these actions is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The discussion of our business and financial results should be read together with the risk factors contained below and in Item 1A of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, which describe risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or prospects in a material and adverse manner.

We have been negatively impacted by recent downgrades of the insurer financial strength ratings of some of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Additional adverse rating agency actions with respect to our insurance subsidiaries could further harm our financial condition and our business.

To date, the ability of our wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries to attract new business and to compete has been highly dependent on the insurer financial strength ratings assigned to them by the rating agencies. On April 8, 2008, Standard & Poor’s lowered its insurer financial strength ratings on PMI, PMI Europe and PMI Guaranty to “A+” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications) from “AA” (Negative Outlook). On April 9, 2008, Standard & Poor’s lowered its insurer financial strength ratings on PMI Australia to a rating of “AA-” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications) from “AA” (CreditWatch with Negative Implications). On June 5, 2008, Fitch lowered its insurer financial strength ratings on PMI, PMI Europe, and PMI Guaranty to “A+” (Rating Watch Negative) from “AA” (Rating Watch Negative), and its long-term issuer rating of The PMI Group to “BBB+” from “A”. Fitch also lowered its insurer financial strength rating on PMI Australia to a rating of “AA-” from “AA”, while improving its rating outlook of PMI Australia from “Rating Watch Negative” to “Negative Outlook”. On June 26, 2008, Standard & Poor’s affirmed PMI Australia’s insurer financial strength rating at “AA-”and improved its rating outlook to “Negative Outlook” from “CreditWatch with Negative Implications”. On July 9, 2008, Moody’s lowered its insurer financial strength rating on PMI to “A3” (Negative Outlook) from “Aa2” (On Review for Possible Downgrade) and The PMI Group’s senior debt rating to “Baa3” (Negative Outlook) from “A1” (On Review for Possible Downgrade). Moody’s also lowered the ratings of PMI Europe and PMI Guaranty to “A3” (Negative Outlook) from “Aa3” (On Review for Possible Downgrade), and the rating of PMI Australia to a rating of “Aa3” (On Review for Possible Downgrade) from “Aa2” (On Review for Possible Downgrade). The ratings of PMI Australia, PMI Europe, PMI Canada, and PMI Guaranty are dependent in part upon the capital support of PMI.

As a result of the rating agencies’ recent downgrades of PMI, the GSEs have each required us to submit a written remediation plan outlining, among other things, the steps we are taking or plan to take to increase our and PMI’s insurer financial strength and ultimately restore PMI’s insurer financial strength rating to the “AA” or equivalent categories. We have submitted remediation plans to the GSEs and have discussed the plans with them. Freddie Mac has stated that it will continue to treat PMI as a Type I mortgage insurer but that its forbearance from enforcing Type II insurer requirements is wholly discretionary and subject to change and is dependent upon its evaluation of monthly updates regarding PMI’s progress in implementing its remediation plan. Fannie Mae has reviewed PMI’s remediation plan and continues to consider PMI an eligible mortgage insurer. Either of the GSEs or both of them, may require PMI to limit certain activities and practices in order to remain an eligible mortgage insurer. Such limitations could include, among other things, the preclusion of obtaining captive reinsurance without the GSEs’ consent, maximum risk-to-capital ratios and limitations on our ability to pay dividends or

92

make other payments, which could limit our operating flexibility and limit the areas in which we may write new business. If either or both of the GSEs cease accepting our mortgage insurance products because we are not able to successfully implement remediation plans or comply with GSE-mandated limitations, our consolidated financial condition and results of operations would be significantly harmed, and an event of default would exist under our credit facility. In addition, if PMI’s insurer financial strength ratings are downgraded further by Standard & Poor’s, Fitch or Moody’s, either or both of the GSEs may cease to accept PMI’s mortgage insurance products.

The recent downgrades and any further downgrades also may harm our ability to compete. Although some of our U.S. competitors have also been downgraded, other of our competitors maintain ratings at the “AA” category, which may make it more difficult for us to compete and which could harm our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

The recent downgrades also have had an adverse impact on our non-U.S. insurance subsidiaries. PMI Asia’s primary customer has significantly reduced its reinsurance allocation to us as a result of the recent downgrades of PMI Europe. In addition, PMI Europe’s and The PMI Group’s recent downgrades may give rise to the right by certain derivative counterparties to terminate their agreements, resulting in a possible termination payment, or require PMI Europe to post collateral for the benefit of such counterparties. In addition, although PMI Australia’s ratings were not downgraded below a “AA-” or equivalent rating, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch’s rating outlooks remain on “Negative Outlook”. PMI Australia’s ratings are dependent in part upon the capital support of PMI, and there can be no assurance that PMI Australia will not be downgraded in the future. Any downgrades of PMI Australia, or the prospect of a downgrade, could significantly impact its ability to compete.

We do not expect to regain “AA” or equivalent category insurer financial strength ratings on PMI and PMI Europe in the near term, and we cannot be sure that we will be able to regain these ratings at all. If we experience further downgrades, our business prospects, revenues, ability to compete, holding company debt ratings and the performance of our insurance subsidiaries could be significantly harmed. In addition, we may be required to raise additional capital to regain or maintain our ratings. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise any additional capital in the future, either on acceptable terms and in a timely manner, or at all. Any of these events would harm our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our loss reserve estimates are subject to uncertainties and our actual losses may substantially exceed our loss reserves. Further, due to higher losses we may be required to record a premium deficiency reserve in the future. Changes in loss reserves or establishment of premium deficiency reserves may result in further volatility of net income and earnings.

The establishment of loss reserves is subject to inherent uncertainty and requires significant judgment by management. Loss reserves established with respect to our mortgage insurance business are based upon management’s estimates and judgments, principally with respect to the rate and severity of claims. Our actual losses may be substantially higher than our loss reserve estimates. Continued adverse economic and other conditions and resulting uncertainty with respect to the rate and severity of claims may result in substantial increases in loss reserves in the future. Additional increases in loss reserves would negatively affect our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

We perform premium deficiency analyses quarterly on a single book basis for the U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations using assumptions based on our best estimates when the analyses are performed. The calculation for premium deficiency requires significant judgment and includes estimates of future expected premiums, expected claims, loss adjustment expenses and maintenance costs as of the date of the test. The calculation of future expected premiums uses

93

assumptions for persistency and termination levels on policies currently in force. Assumptions for future expected losses include future expected average claim sizes and claim rates which are based on the current default rate and expected future defaults.

A premium deficiency analysis was performed as of June 30, 2008, and we determined there was no premium deficiency in our U.S. Mortgage Insurance Operations segment despite significant losses in the second quarter and first half of 2008. Because this premium deficiency calculation required significant judgment and estimation, to the extent losses are higher or expected premiums are lower than the assumptions we used in our analysis, we could be required to record a premium deficiency reserve in the third quarter of 2008 or at any time in future reporting periods, which would negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.
