NATIONWIDE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a wholly owned subsidiary of Nationwide Corporation)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995
(000's omitted)
(1) Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they
do not include all information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 1994 audited
consolidated financial statements included in Nationwide Life
Insurance Company's annual report on Form 10-K.
The financial information included herein reflects all adjustments
(all of which are normal and recurring in nature) which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position and results of operations.
Operating results for all periods presented are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the full year.
(2) Capital Contribution
--------------------
On March 1, 1995, Nationwide Corporation (the parent company of Nationwide
Life Insurance Company) contributed all of the outstanding shares
of Farmland Life Insurance Company (Farmland) to Nationwide Life
Insurance Company, which then merged Farmland into West Coast Life
Insurance Company (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nationwide Life Insurance
Company) effective June 30, 1995. The contribution resulted in a direct
increase to shareholder's equity of $46,918. The contribution of Farmland
has been accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests and
accordingly, Farmland's results are included in the consolidated
statements of income beginning January 1, 1995. However, prior period
consolidated financial statements have not been restated due to
immateriality.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Consolidated net income for Nationwide Life Insurance Company and its
subsidiaries (the Company) was $61 million and $167 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1995, respectively. This
represents increases of 43% and 21% from the same periods in 1994. Individual
and group annuity products accounted for the majority of the increases
primarily due to increased asset fees on separate account assets.
REVENUES: The Company's total revenues increased $139 million and $402
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 which
represents increases of 27% and 26%, respectively, from the 1994
amounts. Accident and health insurance premiums increased $47 million
and $144 million from the comparable periods of 1994. Employers Life Insurance
Company of Wausau (Employers Life) accounted for nearly all of the increases.
Universal life and investment product (primarily individual and group
annuities) policy charges increased $28 million and $72 million from
the comparable periods of 1994 due to the significant increase in the
number and amount of investment product and universal life policies
outstanding. Total universal life and investment product considerations
received were $1,711 million and $4,754 million for the three and nine
month periods in 1995 compared to $1,374 million and $4,151 million for
the corresponding periods of 1994 and $955 million and $2,773 million
for 1993. Management anticipates continued growth in universal life
and investment product revenues, although the growth could likely be at
a slower pace than the past three years.
A portion of the group annuity business is sold to public employees and
educators by two affiliated marketing companies, which are also wholly-
owned subsidiaries of Nationwide Corporation. Total considerations
received through those distribution channels were $252 million and $757
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995,
compared to $229 million and $671 million for the comparable periods
for 1994. Another portion of the group annuity business is a result of
a joint venture with another affiliated marketing company to sell
individual annuity products and life insurance to the customers of
banks and other financial institutions. Total considerations received
through this distribution channel were $135 million and $368 million
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995, compared to
$101 million and $253 million for the comparable periods for 1994.
Traditional life insurance premiums increased $12 million and $47
million in 1995 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995
from the comparable periods of 1994. The majority of the increases is
due to Employers Life which offers both single premium
policies and group life.
A significant growth in invested assets, primarily in individual and
group annuity products, resulted in increases in net investment income
of $53 million and $143 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 over the 1994 periods.
BENEFITS AND EXPENSES: Total benefits and expenses increased $114
million and $357 million for the three and nine month ended September
30, 1995, which represent increases of 26% and 27% from 1994. Of the
total increases, $77 million and $236 million is attributable to Employers
Life. The remainder of the increases is primarily in the individual and
group annuity lines, consistent with the increases in revenues discussed above.
8
9
Other operating costs and expenses increased $13 million and $60
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 over 1994, with
Employers Life accounting for the majority of the increases. The individual and
group pension lines of business reported increases in expenses to support the
growth in considerations and assets for these lines. The traditional and
universal life lines reported lower operating expenses, despite increases in
revenue, due to increased operating efficiencies.
EFFECTS OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS TO BE ADOPTED: The Financial
Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, which specifies when
assets should be reviewed for impairment, how to determine whether
assets are impaired, and how to measure an impairment loss. The
statement, which is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company's consolidated financial statements, is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1995.
INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO: Net realized investment gains (losses) were
($2.9) million and $6.9 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1995, compared to ($2.4) million and $10.2 million for
1994. Realized losses on mortgage loans on real estate were $3.1
million and $3.7 million for the first three and nine months of 1995.
Comparable amounts for 1994 were $4.0 million and $12.4 million. The
losses on mortgage loans on real estate were offset by gains from the sales
of fixed maturity and equity securities.
As of September 30, 1995, valuation allowances on mortgage loans on
real estate were $48.1 million, or 1.1% of the mortgage loan portfolio,
compared to $47.9 million, or 1.1% of the mortgage loan portfolio, at
December 31, 1994.
The Company does not invest in swaps, forwards, futures, option
contracts or other financial instruments with similar characteristics.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
- -------------------------------
CAPITAL RESOURCES: Total shareholder's equity increased to $2,415
million at September 30, 1995 from $1,908 million at December 31, 1994.
Excluding unrealized investment gains and losses, shareholder's equity
increased $211 million (10%) to $2,239 million at September 30, 1995,
from $2,028 million at December 31, 1994. The increases in
shareholder's equity are attributable to the Company's net income and a
contribution from its parent, Nationwide Corporation. On March 1,
1995, Nationwide Corporation contributed all of the outstanding shares
of Farmland Life Insurance Company (Farmland) to Nationwide Life
Insurance Company, which then merged Farmland into West Coast Life
Insurance Company effective June 30, 1995. The contribution resulted
in a direct increase to shareholder's equity of $46.9 million. During
the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Company paid dividends to
Nationwide Corporation of $7.45 million. No significant capital
contributions from, or dividend payments to, Nationwide Corporation are
anticipated for the remainder of 1995 or 1996.
Each insurance company's state of domicile imposes minimum risk-based
capital requirements that were developed by the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners. Risk-based capital evaluates the adequacy of
an insurer's statutory capital and surplus in relation to the risks
inherent in the insurer's business related to asset quality, asset and
liability matching, mortality and morbidity, and other business
factors. Nationwide Life Insurance Company and all of its insurance
subsidiaries exceed the minimum risk-based capital requirements.
9
10
LIQUIDITY: The Company's operations have historically provided
substantial positive cash flow. The significant growth in new business
and the resulting increase in investments have provided the Company
with sufficient cash resources to meet all current obligations for
policyholder benefits, withdrawals, surrenders and policy loans. As a
member of the Nationwide Insurance Enterprise, the Company also has
access to available capital infusions and to liquid and readily
marketable invested assets in the event of extreme unexpected
withdrawals. The Company also participates in intercompany repurchase
agreements with affiliates to satisfy short-term cash needs.
To mitigate the risks that actual withdrawals may exceed anticipated
amounts or that rising interest rates may cause a decline in the value
of the Company's fixed maturity investments, the Company imposes market
value adjustments or surrender charges on the majority of its products
and offers products where the investment risk is transferred to the
contract holder. Liabilities related to separate accounts, where the
investment risk is transferred to the contract holder, comprise 49% of
policyholder-related liabilities at September 30, 1995, compared to 42%
at December 31, 1994.
Nationwide Life Insurance Company and its insurance subsidiaries are limited
by law in the amount of dividends they can pay. That condition poses
no liquidity concerns to the Company due to Nationwide Life Insurance
Company's significant cash flow from operations and extensive holdings
of liquid investments.
