HL FUNDING COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
HL Funding Company, Inc. (HLFC) was formed in the State of Connecticut on
February 8, 1993. HLFC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hartford Life Insurance
Company (HLIC). All of the outstanding shares of HLIC are ultimately owned by
Hartford Fire Insurance Company (Hartford Fire), which is owned by ITT Hartford
Group, Inc. On March 26, 1993, HLFC issued 100 shares ($1 par) of stock to HLIC
for $100. On May 28, 1993 and September 30, 1994, additional capital
contributions of $99,900 and $650,000 respectively, were made by HLIC.
HLFC offers and administers programs whereby participants obtain life insurance
coverage from HLIC and Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company, an
affiliate of HLIC. Under the programs, insurance premiums are paid on behalf of
participants through a series of loans from HLFC. Loans to participants are
secured by participants' ownership in shares of regulated investment companies.
Premium loans receivable are funded with proceeds from a loan arrangement with
HLIC. Programs can be up to ten years in length. Upon a program's conclusion,
the related loan balances and accrued interest become due.
Management expects the administrative costs of issuing and maintaining the
programs will be offset by: a) fees charged to program participants, b) interest
charged to participants for insurance premium loans to the extent that the
interest charged exceeds the cost to HLFC of obtaining funds to finance the
programs, and c) interest income earned on investments held by HLFC. Through
June 30, 1996, sixteen programs were sold.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
REVENUES AND EXPENSES
Interest and fees from investments and premium loans receivable are recognized
as revenue when earned. Expenses, which are primarily allocated from
affiliates, are recognized when incurred.
ORGANIZATIONAL COSTS
Organizational costs are amortized over a three year period.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash equivalents include an investment ($180,795 and $66,408 as of June 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995, respectively) in Hartford Liquid Asset Trust (see
Note 3).
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles 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 financial statements and
the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
6
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.
NOTE 3 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
HLIC provides administrative services to HLFC, including use of its facilities
and personnel, and allocates a portion of its expenses to HLFC.
HLFC invests a portion of its assets in Hartford Liquid Asset Trust, a short
term investment pool of liquid securities, in which companies of the ITT
Hartford Insurance Group, Inc. participate. Pursuant to the terms of the Trust
Agreement, the purpose of the Trust is to invest funds in a less costly manner
in assets which achieve a high level of current income as well as maintain
liquidity and preserve capital. The Trust investments are restricted to cash
and investments having a stated maturity date of 12 months or less from the date
of purchase. Interest earned by the Trust is allocated to each participant
based on their pro-rata share of principal contributions.
HLFC's funds for financing the programs are obtained through a promissory note
agreement with HLIC. The agreement allows HLIC to advance to HLFC funds in an
amount up to $7,000,000. The interest rate for the note is equal to the 90 day
LIBOR plus 125 basis points. The interest rate was 6.625% at June 30, 1996.
NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash and cash equivalent, interest, fees and tax receivable, premium loans
receivable and intercompany loan payable amounts reflected in the balance sheet
approximate fair value.
NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES
From inception of the company through December 31, 1995, HLFC was included in
ITT Hartford Group, Inc.'s consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return and
received from ITT Hartford Group, Inc. current income tax benefits computed in
accordance with the tax sharing arrangements between ITT Hartford Group, Inc.
and its subsidiaries. Subsequent to the spin-off of the ITT Hartford Insurance
Group, Inc. from its former parent ITT Corp., HLFC will not be included in the
consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return of ITT Hartford Group, Inc., and
accordingly as of June 30, 1996 HLFC will file a stand-alone U.S. Federal income
tax return. The effective tax rate in 1996 and 1995 approximated the U.S.
Statutory tax rate of 35%. The provision (benefit) for income taxes was as
follows:
JUNE 30, 1996 DECEMBER 31, 1995
------------- -----------------
Current $ (44,211) $ (195,216)
Deferred 1,920 (28,165)
--------- ----------
$ (42,291) $ (223,381)
--------- ----------
--------- ----------
As of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the deferred tax asset was primarily
due to organizational expenses capitalized for tax return purposes until the
start of business of HLFC. Income taxes paid were $ 0, $162 and $ 0 in 1995,
1994 and 1993, respectively.
7
NOTE 6 - PREMIUM LOANS
All premium loans to participants are secured by participants' share of mutual
funds, which include open-end investment companies registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. When loans are originated, customers must
pledge mutual fund shares valued at 2.5 times the yearly premiums being
financed. During the life of the loan, the fair market value of the
collateralized mutual fund shares must equal at least 1.5 times the amount of
the total loan, or the participant must pledge additional shares to achieve this
level. The loan will be liquidated if the fair market value of the collateral-
to-loan ratio falls below 1.3. Effective January 1, 1995, HL Funding Company,
Inc. adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard Nos. 114 and 118,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan." These standards change the
method by which the allowance for loan losses is determined for impaired loans.
Since all premium loans are secured by collateral, with fair market value
exceeding the loan value, there was no impact to the financial position or
future results of operations of HL Funding Company, Inc. as a result of the
adoption of the new accounting standards on January 1, 1995.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
OPERATING RESULTS
For the first half of 1996 HL Funding Company, Inc. (the Company) had a net loss
of $78,541 compared to a net loss of $91,628 for the first half of 1995. Net
losses in the comparative periods were principally due to general operating
expenses of the Company exceeding short term interest and program income for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. The decrease in the net loss between
June 30, 1996 and 1995 was principally due to lower expenses for salary and
overhead in 1996, partially offset by a decrease in non program interest income.
Through June 30, 1996, sixteen programs were sold by the Company.
