("AMIC") is a holding company engaged in the insurance and reinsurance business through its wholly-owned insurance company, Independence American Insurance Company ("Independence American"), formerly First Standard Security Insurance Company, and its managing general underwriter subsidiaries: IndependenceCare Holdings L.L.C. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "IndependenceCare"); Risk Assessment Strategies, Inc. ("RAS") and Voorhees Risk Management LLC d.b.a. Marlton Risk Group ("Marlton"). IndependenceCare, RAS and Marlton are collectively referred to as the "MGU Subsidiaries".

(B) Principles of Consolidation and Preparation of Financial Statements.

The financial information included herein is unaudited, however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise noted) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Additionally, certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements in order to conform to the current period presentation.

The Company has changed its fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31. As a result, the Company filed a Form 10-QT for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 representing the transitional reporting period. This report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2003 represents the second fiscal quarter of the new fiscal year ending December 31, 2003. Accordingly, the information for the six months ended June 30, 2002 (as restated for discontinued operations and designated at the time of the original SEC reporting as the third fiscal quarter) is included herein for comparative purposes. The Company's tax year remains unchanged at September 30.

American Independence Corp.'s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, as amended and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

(C) Stock-Based Compensation and Change in Accounting Principle

In November 2002, the Company adopted certain provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation"("SFAS 123"). SFAS 123 established a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. Pursuant to the transition provisions of SFAS 123, the Company will apply the fair value method of accounting to all option grants issued on or after October 1, 2002. The fair value method will not be applied to stock option awards granted prior to October 1, 2002. Such awards will continue to be accounted for under the intrinsic value method pursuant to APB 25, except to the extent those prior years' awards are modified subsequent to October 1, 2002. The Company recorded an expense of approximately $58,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 related to the issuance of approximately 53,000 options issued under the fair value based method. The remaining $18,000 of non-cash compensation expense relates to options issued unde r the intrinsic value method pursuant to APB 25.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure". As permitted by SFAS No. 148, the Company has elected to prospectively account for all stock option grants issued on or after October 1, 2002, under the fair value based method. As part of the election to prospectively account for all stock option grants under the fair value based method, the Company is permitted to continue accounting for all stock option grants issued before October 1, 2002, under the intrinsic value method. Under the fair value based method, stock compensation costs for stock option grants is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award, and such cost is recognized as an expense over vesting period of the stock option grant. Under the intrinsic value method, compensation expense is recognized for stock options issued with an exercise price less than the stock's fair value on the date of grant and such expense is recognized over the vest ing period.

Had the Company applied the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation awards issued prior to October 1, 2002, net income and net income per share for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2003, and 2002 would have been as follows:

Included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for 2003 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 are 66,000 and 53,000 shares from the assumed exercise of options using the treasury stock method. Net income does not change as a result of the assumed dilution of options. Options were not included in the 2002 diluted earnings per share calculation as the result would be anti-dilutive.

Prior to becoming an insurance holding company as a result of the acquisition of Independence American Holdings Corp. ("IAHC") on November 14, 2002, the Company was a holding company principally engaged in providing Internet services through the following discontinued operations, Intelligent Communications, Inc. ("Intellicom"), Aerzone Corporation ("Aerzone"), ISP Channel, Inc. ("ISP Channel"), Kansas Communications, Inc. ("KCI"), and Micrographic Technology Corporation ("MTC"). The operating results of these discontinued operations have been segregated from continuing operations and are reported as a loss from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations. Although it is difficult to predict the final results, the loss on disposition from discontinued operations includes management's estimates of costs to wind down the business and costs to settle its outstanding liabilities. The actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The estimated loss on disposition reserve of all discontinued operations is reflected in net liabilities associated with discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

On March 29, 2002, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Intellicom, entered into an agreement to sell its operating business and certain assets to Loral Cyberstar, Inc. Following the sale of its operating business and certain assets to Loral Cyberstar, Inc., the Company's Board of Directors unanimously agreed to cease the operations of Intellicom on April 3, 2002. Due principally to the Company's guaranty of Intellicom's lease for its facility in Livermore, California, the Company has a remaining reserve for discontinued operations of Intellicom of $1,142,000 for this liability at June 30, 2003.

On January 24, 2000, the Company founded Aerzone (formerly SoftNet Zone, Inc.) to provide high-speed Internet access to global business travelers. As part of the Aerzone business, the Company acquired Laptop Lane, on April 21, 2000. On December 19, 2000, the Company decided to discontinue the Aerzone business in light of significant long-term capital needs and the difficulty of securing the necessary financing because of the current state of the financial markets. The Company has a remaining reserve for discontinued operations of Aerzone of $75,000 at June 30, 2003.

On December 7, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to discontinue providing cable-based Internet services through its ISP Channel subsidiary by December 31, 2000, because consolidation in the cable television industry made it difficult for ISP Channel to achieve the economies of scale necessary to provide such services profitably, and the Company was no longer able to bear the costs of maintaining the ISP Channel. The Company has a remaining reserve of $156,000 at June 30, 2003 relating to the discontinued operations of ISP Channel.

As a result of an arbitration decision related to the sale of MTC to Global Information Distribution GmbH ("GID"), the Company has a remaining reserve of $49,000 relating to the loss on disposition of MTC at June 30, 2003 (see Note 6). The loss relates to the arbitration award plus related expenses. MTC was previously owned by the Company, and was sold to GID on September 30, 1999.

As a result of the February 12, 1999 sale of the assets of the telecommunications segment, KCI, to Convergent Communications Services, Inc. ("Convergent Communications"), the Company has a remaining reserve of $316,000 relating to the loss on disposition of KCI at June 30, 2003. The loss primarily relates to additional state taxes for periods prior to the sale of KCI to Convergent Communications.
