CITIZENS FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying unaudited
condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the results for
the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
For further information, refer to the December 31, 1995 consolidated
financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report
on Form 10-K.
2. On September 22, 1995, the Company acquired 98.85% of the common stock of
Integrity National Life Insurance Company ("Integrity National") from
Southwestern Life Corporation ("Southwestern"), a Dallas-based insurance
holding company (the "Acquisition"). The Acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase with the results of Integrity National's operations being
included in the consolidated statements since the date of acquisition.
The Company acquired the remaining 1.15% of the common stock of Integrity
National in conjunction with the merger of Integrity National into a
Company subsidiary as of December 31, 1995.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
FINANCIAL POSITION
Fixed maturities increased $4,068,145, based on amortized cost, during the
first three months of 1996. Equity securities increased $1,172,849 and
$1,338,183 on a cost and market value basis, respectively, during the same
period. Gross unrealized appreciation for available-for-sale fixed
maturities and equity securities decreased $1,034,994 during the quarter
ended March 31, 1996.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
An analysis of first quarter results, before federal income taxes, by
segment is shown below:
Segment Income (Loss): 1996 1995
Life and Annuity $447,675 $(272,023)
Accident and Health 247,193 77,792
$694,868 $(194,231)
Segment income (loss) before gains (loss)
on investment securities
Life and Annuity $(125,692) $(184,591)
Accident and Health 229,460 82,490
$ 103,768 $(102,101)
The improvement of the Life and Annuity segment results is
principally attributable to a significant increase in realized capital gains and
investment income, offset, to an extent, by increased interest expense on
bank borrowings and an increase in the allocation of overhead to this segment
due to its increases in premium volume. The improvement in the Accident and
Health segment is attributable to a decrease in cancer claims and the
reallocation of overhead to the Life and Annuity segment discussed above.
Premiums and other considerations increased 108% during the first
quarter of 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. The increase is
attributable to increases in traditional life product premiums, which
increased 508.1% in the first quarter of 1996 compared to 1995. Premiums
which resulted from the acquisition of Integrity National Life Insurance
Company in September, 1995, represented 83.2% of the life premium increase
with the remaining increase being attributable to sales of the Company's
graded death benefit product. The Company's Accident and Health premiums
increased 34.7% due to increased sales of the Company's dental products.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)
CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY
Cash flow from operations decreased $665,113 during the quarter
ending March 31, 1996 compared to the same period in the prior year. This
decrease was principally attributable to the payment during the first quarter
of 1996 of integration costs, bonuses, agent awards, and other expenses
associated with Integrity which were accrued as of December 31, 1995.
The $5,059,072 of cash used in investing activities resulted from
the Company's investment of cash balances into fixed maturities and stocks.
The increase in cash provided by financing activities during the
first quarter of 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 is attributable to
the issuance of an additional 213 shares of convertible preferred stock.
