"Horace Mann's fourth quarter net income benefited $99.0 million or $2.37 per diluted share* from the passage of the new U.S.
tax law, which reflects the re-measurement of our net deferred tax liability," said Horace Mann's President and Chief Executive
Officer Marita Zuraitis. "Excluding the impact of tax reform, fourth quarter core earnings of $0.65 per diluted share increased
25% compared to the prior year period reflecting relatively favorable weather-related losses, as well as continued progress in
auto profitability initiatives. Despite another active catastrophe quarter for the industry, our Property and Casualty operations
produced a strong 94.0% combined ratio. In addition, our Retirement and Life businesses continue to grow, with a 9% increase in
Retirement assets under management and a 13% increase in Life sales."
"We are projecting full year 2018 core earnings of between $2.10 and $2.30 per share," stated Zuraitis. "This estimate
anticipates continued improvement of 2 to 2.5 points in our underlying auto loss ratio and 1 to 1.5 points in our underlying
property loss ratio, 6 to 7 points of catastrophe costs, net interest spread of around 170 basis points, Life mortality costs
consistent with 2017, continued strategic investments across all lines, and an effective tax rate of between 15% to 18%."
Property and Casualty Segment
For the fourth quarter of 2017, Property and Casualty net income (excluding the effect of DTL re-measurement)* increased to
$15.0 million compared to $9.6 million in the prior year period. The Property and Casualty combined ratio of 94.0% improved 5.1
points compared to the prior year period. These improvements were primarily due to an improved underlying auto loss ratio,
reflecting the impact of rate actions and continued profitability initiatives, as well as a strong underlying property loss
ratio.
Prior years' reserves continue to develop favorably in both auto and property, $0.6 million pretax in the fourth quarter of
2017 compared to $2.7 million pretax in the prior year period.
Catastrophe activity in the fourth quarter of 2017 totaled $3.6 million pretax, including losses related to California
wildfires totaling $1.3 million pretax, compared to $11.6 million pretax in the prior year period.
On a reported basis, the fourth quarter auto combined ratio of 104.7% improved 3.5 points and the property combined ratio of
72.2% improved 8.9 points as compared to the prior year period, driven by improvement in the underlying auto loss ratio and lower
catastrophe losses. The underlying auto loss ratio* of 77.6% improved 5.0 points compared to the prior year period as a result of
an increase in earned premium due to rate actions combined with continued stabilization in auto loss trends. The underlying
property loss ratio* was favorable at 39.8%, which reflected a modest increase of 0.9 points compared to the prior year
period.
For the full year 2017, Property and Casualty net income (excluding the effect of DTL re-measurement) decreased to $17.2
million compared to $25.6 million in the prior year period as a result of lower levels of favorable prior years' reserve
development as well as elevated weather-related losses that occurred in the first half of 2017. Favorable prior years' reserve
development was $4.3 million pretax less than a year ago and pretax catastrophe losses were $1.8 million higher than a year ago.
The Property and Casualty combined ratio of 103.3% increased 1.8 points compared to a year ago.
On an underlying basis, the full year 2017 auto loss ratio of 77.2% decreased 0.8 points compared to the prior year period,
with the full year underlying combined ratio improving 1.0 point compared to the prior year. For property, the underlying full
year 2017 loss ratio of 47.2% increased 4.8 points compared to the prior year period and was largely related to the impact of
higher non-catastrophe weather-related losses that occurred in the first half of 2017. The expense ratio for Property and
Casualty of 26.7% was comparable to the prior year period.
Total Property and Casualty written premiums* of $164.8 million and $662.8 million for the three and twelve month periods
ended December 31, 2017 increased 4.3% and 4.5%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The growth was driven
primarily by rate actions, which resulted in an increase in the average premium per policy for both auto and property.
Total Property and Casualty sales* for the fourth quarter 2017 were flat compared to the prior year period but increased 4.9%
for the full year 2017 compared to prior year period. Policy retention continues to be stable with auto and property policy
retention rates for the current quarter at 83.0% and 87.6%, respectively.
Retirement Segment
For the fourth quarter of 2017, Retirement net income (excluding the effect of DTL re-measurement)* of $12.0 million increased
$0.6 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a $5.5 million pretax increase in net interest margin offset by
a $2.1 million pretax unfavorable change in DAC unlocking accompanied by a $1.8 million pretax increase in DAC amortization. For
the full year 2017, Retirement net income (excluding the effect of DTL re-measurement) of $48.9 million was 3.6% lower than the
prior year period.
For the full year of 2017, the annualized net interest spread on fixed annuity assets was 194 basis points, an increase of 1
basis point compared to a year ago. Net interest spread benefited from strong prepayment activity in the fourth quarter of 2017,
as well as favorable alternative investment returns. Annuity assets under management of $6.8 billion increased 5.2% compared to a
year ago, and total cash value persistency remained strong at 89.5% for variable annuities and 92.6% for fixed annuities.
Overall, the total level of Retirement deposits* was comparable to the prior year periods with an increase in asset flows
related to fee-based mutual fund offerings nearly offsetting a decrease in traditional annuity products. For the three and twelve
month periods ended December 31, 2017, annuity deposits of $104.2 million and $453.1 million decreased 18.8% and 12.9%,
respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The decline in annuity deposits was related to lower sales of single premium
annuity products in the current year. For the current year, deposits on recurring annuity products were comparable to the prior
year period. Sales* and deposit activity related to new retail and institutional Retirement Advantage products, as well as other
mutual fund offerings, were strong with $80.0 million of deposits in the current year compared to $39.0 million in the prior year
period.
Life Segment
Life net income (excluding the effect of DTL re-measurement)* of $3.0 million and $17.3 million for the three and twelve month
periods ended December 31, 2017, decreased 14.3% and increased 4.2%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The
decrease for the fourth quarter 2017 was largely due to an increase in mortality costs. However, on a full year basis, mortality
costs are in-line with our historical trends.
Life insurance premiums and contract deposits* of $31.4 million for the current quarter increased 6.1% compared to the prior
year period. For the twelve month period ended December 31, 2017, premiums and contract deposits increased 3.0%, to $111.2
million compared to the prior year period. Life sales* of $6.1 million increased 24.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2016.
Life sales during 2017 of $17.7 million increased 13.5% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in single
premium sales. Life persistency of 95.1% was comparable to prior year.
Investment Results
Total net investment income for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2017 increased 9.0% and 3.4%
respectively, compared to the prior year periods. While annuity asset balances in the Retirement segment continued to grow,
overall investment results reflected a $5.2 million pretax increase in investment prepayment activity in the current quarter
partially offset by the impact of the current low interest rate environment. Pretax net realized investment losses were $1.7
million and $3.4 million for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2017, respectively.
Horace Mann's net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities were $440.3 million at December 31,
2017, compared to net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities of $312.2 million at December 31, 2016.
The increase in net unrealized gains is largely attributable to tighter credit spreads across all asset classes.

February 7, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The conference call will be webcast live at investors.horacemann.com and archived later in the day for replay.
