HOME BENEFICIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation - In the opinion of management, the accompanying
unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements of the
Corporation contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June
30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, and the results of operations and cash
flows for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.
The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of
the Corporation, its principal subsidiary, Home Beneficial Life Insurance
Company (the Life Company), and its other subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's
1995 Annual Report to Stockholders.
2. During the first six months of 1996, the Corporation purchased 128,373
shares of its Class A Common Stock at a cost of $3.1 million.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Financial Condition
The Corporation is primarily engaged in the life insurance business which
historically has provided a positive cash flow. By statute, the Life
Company is required to invest in quality securities which provide ample
protection for its policyholders. Policy liabilities of the Life Company
are predominately long term in nature and are supported primarily by long
term fixed maturity investments and mortgage loans on real estate.
Assets totaled $1.4 billion at June 30, 1996 with investment assets
totalling $1.2 billion. The Corporation's fixed maturity and equity
securities portfolio is classified in the balance sheet as available-for-
sale and carried at fair value. At June 30, 1996 the fair value of these
securities exceeded their cost by $38 million. At June 30, 1996 there
were no principal and interest payments past due on fixed maturities, and
over 99% of the mortgage loans on real estate were current for both
principal and interest.
The Life Company continually matches the investment portfolio to the cash
flow demands of the types of insurance being written and maintains
adequate cash and short term investments to meet cash requirements for
policy loans and voluntary policy terminations, as well as investment
commitments. Policy loans account for less than 5% of total cash and
invested assets.
As disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as of
December 31, 1995, $145 million of consolidated stockholders' equity
represents net assets of the Life Company that cannot be transferred in
the form of dividends, loans or advances to the Corporation. However,
this poses no liquidity concerns to the Corporation as it has sufficient
cash flow to meet its operational requirements.
Results of Operations
Net income for the first six months of 1996 was $18,613,374 compared to
$18,466,223 for the same period in 1995. Realized investment gains were
insignificant for the two periods.
Individual life insurance sales for 1996 increased by 9.2% and amounted to
$492.4 million compared to $451 million for the first six months of 1995.
Net investment income, excluding realized investment gains and losses,
increased 1.4% compared to an increase of 4% for the 1995 period.
Growth in investment income continued to decline as a result of average
yields on newly acquired mortgages and fixed income securities being below
the Corporation's portfolio yield rate. First half 1996 underwriting,
acquisition and insurance expenses increased over the corresponding period
of 1995 as a result of increased individual insurance policy terminations.
