Consolidated Highlights

See Glossary of Financial Measures for definitions and the statistical supplement for additional financial data.

“We are very pleased to be starting the year with strong earnings,” commented Jay Fishman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  “Underwriting results and net investment income reflected solid performance. In addition, we were pleased to see the favorable impact of pricing and improved economic conditions on net written premiums.

“Across our diversified commercial insurance businesses, pricing continued to improve with renewal rate change turning positive early in the quarter and trending upward from there. We also continued to see growth in the number of accounts. In addition, exposure change at renewal increased, and we were very pleased that audit premiums turned positive for the first time since second quarter 2009. In Personal Insurance, the environment remained generally stable, and renewal premium change was once again positive.  Importantly, retention levels remained high across all of our business segments, demonstrating the significant value we provide to our customers, agents and brokers.

“Looking forward, we feel very good about our position in the marketplace and are cautiously but increasingly optimistic about the operating environment,” concluded Fishman.

First Quarter 2011 Consolidated Results

Operating income of $826 million after-tax in the current quarter increased $195 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $169 million after-tax increase in the underwriting gain which included a $100 million benefit from favorable resolution of prior year tax matters primarily related to 2007 and 2008.

The improvement in the underwriting gain in the current quarter reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 94.7 percent, as compared to 96.4 percent in the prior year quarter. This improvement of 1.7 points in the combined ratio was primarily driven by a $285 million pre-tax decrease in catastrophe losses (improvement of 5.6 points), partially offset by a $57 million pre-tax decrease in net favorable prior year reserve development (increase of 1.2 points). Catastrophe losses in the current quarter were primarily due to winter storms throughout the United States. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the current quarter occurred in all three segments, but particularly in Business Insurance as a result of better than expected loss experience in the general liability and property product lines.

The current quarter underwriting gain excluding net favorable prior year reserve development and catastrophe losses reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 95.7 percent, as compared to 93.0 percent in the prior year quarter.  This increase of 2.7 points was primarily due to the impact of reduced underwriting margins related to earned

pricing and loss cost trends in Business Insurance and higher non-catastrophe weather-related losses in Personal Insurance.

Total revenues of $6.278 billion in the current quarter increased $159 million, or 3 percent, from the prior year quarter due to a $141 million increase in earned premiums and a $26 million increase in pre-tax net investment income. After-tax net investment income in the current quarter increased 2 percent from the prior year quarter due to strong results in the non-fixed income portfolio. Net investment income from the fixed income portfolio decreased modestly from the prior year quarter due to lower average invested assets that reflected the impact of the company’s common share repurchases, as well as lower reinvestment rates.

Net written premiums of $5.437 billion in the current quarter increased 4 percent from the prior year quarter due to strong results in Business Insurance and Personal Insurance. Retention rates remained high and new business volumes were generally stable across all three business segments. Renewal rate change was positive in Business Insurance and Personal Insurance but was slightly negative in Financial, Professional & International Insurance. Net written premiums in Business Insurance also benefited from modestly positive audit premiums, compared to significant negative audit premiums in the prior year quarter.

Capital Management

“We remain very pleased with our capital structure and balance sheet strength,” commented Jay S. Benet, Vice Chairman and Chief Financial Officer. “Our ongoing commitment to returning excess capital to our shareholders was evidenced by the $1.1 billion in common share repurchases during the first quarter and the 14 percent increase in our quarterly dividend that we announced today.”

Shareholders’ equity ended first quarter 2011 at $25.2 billion, a slight decrease from year-end 2010 resulting from common share repurchases. Included in shareholders’ equity at the end of the current quarter were after-tax unrealized gains of $1.8 billion, compared to $1.9 billion at year-end 2010. All of the company’s financial strength indicators remained at or better than target as statutory surplus ended the current quarter at $20.6 billion, holding company liquidity was $2.9 billion and the debt-to-capital ratio (excluding net unrealized investment gains) was 22.0 percent.

The Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.41 per common share.  This dividend, which is $0.05 higher than the last regular quarterly dividend, is payable June 30, 2011, to shareholders of record as of the close of business June 10, 2011.

Business Insurance Segment Financial Results

“The improved trends in Business Insurance seen in fourth quarter 2010 continued into the new year,” commented Brian MacLean, President and Chief Operating Officer. “These favorable trends in pricing and exposure drove strong net written premium growth in the quarter. The investments we have made in our franchise over the past few years, which we believe have driven our sizable account growth, position us well to continue to grow our business profitably.”

Operating income in the current quarter of $604 million after-tax increased $37 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $21 million after-tax increase in the underwriting gain and a $15 million after-tax increase in net investment income. The underwriting gain in the current quarter included a $76 million benefit from favorable resolution of prior year tax matters.

The underwriting gain in the current quarter reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 94.9 percent, as compared to 91.4 percent in the prior year quarter. This increase of 3.5 points in the combined ratio was primarily due to a $99 million pre-tax decrease in net favorable prior year reserve development (increase of 4.0 points), partially offset by a $23 million pre-tax decrease in catastrophe losses (improvement of 1.0 point). Catastrophe losses in the current quarter were primarily due to winter storms throughout the United States. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the current quarter primarily resulted from better than expected loss experience in the excess coverages of the general liability product line for accident years 2008 and prior, as well as the property product line for the most recent accident year.

The current quarter underwriting gain excluding net favorable prior year reserve development and catastrophe losses reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 96.0 percent, as compared to 95.5 percent in the prior year quarter.  This increase of 0.5 points was primarily due to reduced underwriting margins related to earned pricing and loss cost trends, partially offset by the favorable impact on the expense ratio of higher earned premium volume.

Business Insurance net written premiums of $3.020 billion in the current quarter increased 7 percent from the prior year quarter. Net written premiums benefited from improved economic activity as evidenced by positive exposure change at renewal as well as modestly positive audit premiums, compared to significant negative audit premiums in the prior year quarter. Retention rates remained high and increased from recent quarters. The impact of renewal rate change was slightly positive compared to slightly negative in recent quarters. New business volumes remained strong, but decreased modestly from the prior year quarter.

Select Accounts

·             Net written premiums of $732 million increased 4 percent from the prior year quarter.

·             Retention rates remained strong and increased from recent quarters.

·             Renewal premium change remained positive and increased from recent quarters.

·             New business volumes increased from the prior year quarter due to continued strong volumes from TravelersExpressSM, the company’s enhanced quote-to-issue agency platform and multivariate pricing program for smaller businesses, and increased volumes in larger accounts served by Select.

Commercial Accounts

·             Net written premiums of $822 million increased 16 percent from the prior year quarter.

4

·             Retention rates remained very strong and increased from recent quarters.

·             Renewal premium change was positive for the second consecutive quarter and increased from recent quarters.

·             New business volumes were strong and increased from the prior year quarter.

National Accounts

·                  Net written premiums of $211 million decreased 7 percent from the prior year quarter primarily due to lower prior year retrospective premium adjustments, partially offset by strong retention rates.

Industry-Focused Underwriting

·            Net written premiums of $628 million increased 10 percent from the prior year quarter. Premium increases were concentrated in the Construction and Technology business units.

Target Risk Underwriting

·             Net written premiums of $413 million approximated the prior year quarter.

Specialized Distribution

·             Net written premiums of $209 million decreased 3 percent from the prior year quarter primarily due to lower new business volumes in the Northland business unit.

Financial, Professional & International Insurance Segment Financial Results

“In FP&II, operating income in the quarter compared to a year ago benefited significantly from lower losses associated with earthquakes and significant weather events,” commented MacLean. “While written and earned premiums have been reduced in the current and recent quarters, the work we have done to improve risk and reward in our International business, particularly in the catastrophe exposed lines in our Lloyd’s syndicate, successfully mitigated losses this quarter. Low levels of construction spending coupled with our commitment to disciplined underwriting continued to impact business volumes in our surety businesses, and we continue to maintain our focus on returns in our management liability businesses.”

Operating income in the current quarter of $120 million after-tax increased $34 million from the prior year quarter due to a $37 million after-tax increase in underwriting results. The underwriting gain in the current quarter included a $14 million benefit from favorable resolution of prior year tax matters.

The improvement in underwriting results in the current quarter reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 95.3 percent, as compared to 98.9 percent in the prior year quarter. This improvement of 3.6 points in the combined ratio was driven by a $65 million pre-tax decrease in catastrophe losses (improvement of 7.7 points) and $5 million pre-tax increase in net favorable prior year reserve development (improvement of 0.9 points). Catastrophe losses in the current quarter were concentrated in the company’s Lloyd’s operations and related to the earthquake in Japan. Net favorable prior year reserve development in the current quarter primarily resulted from better than expected loss experience in older accident years for the fidelity & surety line of business within Bond & Financial Products.

The current quarter underwriting gain excluding net favorable prior year reserve development and catastrophes reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 97.7 percent, as compared to 92.7 percent in the prior year quarter. This increase of 5.0 points was primarily due to several large losses within International, including losses related to the earthquake in New Zealand that did not meet the company’s threshold for classification as catastrophe losses, as well as an increase in the expense ratio attributable to infrastructure investments within International and lower earned premium volume across the segment.

Financial, Professional & International Insurance net written premiums of $624 million decreased 8 percent from the prior year quarter. Adjusting for the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, net written premiums decreased 9 percent.

Retention rates, renewal premium changes and new business volumes, as discussed below, exclude the surety line of business as surety products are sold on a non-recurring, project-specific basis.

Bond & Financial Products

·             Net written premiums of $369 million increased 2 percent from the prior year quarter reflecting changes in ceded reinsurance, partially offset by lower business volumes in construction surety due to the continued slowdown in construction spending and disciplined underwriting.

·             Retention rates remained strong and increased from the most recent quarter.

·             Renewal premium change was slightly negative but improved from recent quarters.

·            New business volumes increased from the prior year quarter.

International

·             Net written premiums of $255 million decreased 20 percent from the prior year quarter. Adjusting for the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, net written premiums decreased 22 percent. This decrease is primarily attributable to intentional underwriting actions taken at the company’s operations at Lloyd’s intended to improve risk and reward (particularly in the catastrophe exposed lines of business), timing related to policies written in the prior year quarter with terms longer than 12 months that will be available for renewal later in 2011 and the termination of an exclusive relationship with a distribution partner in Ireland during fourth quarter 2010.

·             Retention rates continued to be impacted by the termination of the distribution relationship in Ireland and intentional underwriting actions at Lloyd’s.

·             Renewal premium change was negative, as the impact of positive renewal rate change was more than offset by reduced insured exposures primarily resulting from intentional underwriting actions at Lloyd’s.

·             New business volumes decreased from the prior year quarter primarily due to the termination of the distribution relationship in Ireland and intentional underwriting actions at Lloyd’s.

Personal Insurance Segment Financial Results

“Personal Insurance performance remained strong, as we continue our disciplined rate actions,” commented MacLean. “We remain pleased with our production trends and the underlying profitability of our product portfolio.”

Operating income in the current quarter of $170 million after-tax increased $111 million from the prior year quarter due to a $111 million after-tax increase in underwriting results. The underwriting gain in the current quarter included a $10 million benefit from favorable resolution of prior year tax matters.

The improvement in underwriting results in the current quarter reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 94.2 percent, as compared to 102.6 percent in the prior year quarter. This improvement of 8.4 points in the combined ratio was primarily driven by a $197 million pre-tax decrease in catastrophe losses (improvement of 11.2 points) and a $37 million pre-tax increase in net favorable prior year reserve development (improvement of 2.0 points).  Catastrophe losses in the current quarter were due to winter storms throughout the United States. The net favorable prior year reserve development in the current quarter primarily resulted from better than expected loss experience related to 2010 catastrophes in Homeowners and Other.

The current quarter underwriting results excluding net favorable prior year reserve development and catastrophe losses reflected a GAAP combined ratio of 94.4 percent, as compared to 89.6 percent in the prior year quarter. This increase of 4.8 points was primarily due to much higher non-catastrophe weather-related losses and higher expenses related to the company’s direct to consumer initiative, partially offset by the favorable impact of earned rate increases.

Personal Insurance net written premiums of $1.793 billion increased 3 percent from prior year quarter, including the company’s direct to consumer initiative, reflecting continued positive renewal premium change and strong retention rates.

Agency Automobile and Agency Homeowners and Other, as discussed below, represent business sold through agents, brokers and other intermediaries and exclude direct to consumer.

Agency Automobile

·             Net written premiums of $918 million increased 1 percent from the prior year quarter.

·             Policies in force continued to increase, up 2 percent from the prior year quarter.

·             Retention rates were strong and renewal premium change remained positive.

GLOSSARY OF FINANCIAL MEASURES AND RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP MEASURES TO GAAP MEASURES

The following measures are used by the company’s management to evaluate financial performance against historical results and establish targets on a consolidated basis. In some cases, these measures are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable SEC rules because they are not displayed as separate line items in the consolidated financial statements or are not required to be disclosed in the notes to financial statements or, in some cases, include or exclude certain items not ordinarily included or excluded in the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures also follow.

In the opinion of the company’s management, a discussion of these measures provides investors, financial analysts, rating agencies and other financial statement users with a better understanding of the significant factors that comprise the company’s periodic results of operations and how management evaluates the company’s financial performance. Internally, the company’s management uses these measures to evaluate performance against historical results, to establish financial targets on a consolidated basis and for other reasons, which are discussed below.

Some of these measures exclude net realized investment gains (losses), net of tax, and/or net unrealized investment gains (losses), net of tax, which can be significantly impacted by both discretionary and other economic factors and are not necessarily indicative of operating trends.

Other companies may calculate these measures differently, and, therefore, their measures may not be comparable to those used by the company’s management.

RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING INCOME AND CERTAIN OTHER NON-GAAP MEASURES TO NET INCOME

Operating income (loss) is net income (loss) excluding the after-tax impact of net realized investment gains (losses) and discontinued operations. Management uses operating income to analyze each segment’s performance and as a tool in making business decisions.  Financial statement users also consider operating income when analyzing the results and trends of insurance companies. Operating earnings (loss) per share is operating income (loss) on a per common share basis.

Reconciliation of Operating Income by Segment to Total Operating Income

RECONCILIATION OF ADJUSTED SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY TO SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND OPERATING RETURN ON EQUITY TO RETURN ON EQUITY

Average shareholders’ equity is (a) the sum of total shareholders’ equity excluding preferred stock at the beginning and end of each of the quarters for the period presented divided by (b) the number of quarters in the period presented times two. Adjusted shareholders’ equity is shareholders’ equity excluding net unrealized investment gains (losses), net of tax, net realized investment gains (losses), net of tax, for the period presented, preferred stock and discontinued operations. Adjusted average shareholders’ equity is average shareholders’ equity excluding net unrealized investment gains (losses), net of tax, for all quarters included in the calculation and, for each quarterly period included in the calculation, that quarter’s net realized investment gains (losses), net of tax.

Reconciliation of Adjusted Shareholders’ Equity to Shareholders’ Equity            

Return on equity is the ratio of annualized net income (loss) less preferred dividends to average shareholders’ equity for the periods presented. Operating return on equity is the ratio of annualized operating income (loss) less preferred dividends to adjusted average shareholders’ equity for the periods presented. In the opinion of the company’s management, these are important indicators of how well management creates value for its shareholders through its operating activities and its capital management.

Calculation of Operating Return on Equity and Return on Equity

Average annual operating return on equity over a period is the ratio of:

a) the sum of operating income (loss) less preferred dividends for the periods presented to

b) the sum of: 1) the sum of the adjusted average shareholders’ equity for all full years in the period presented, and 2) for partial years in the period presented, the number of quarters in that partial year divided by four, multiplied by the adjusted average shareholders’ equity of the partial year.
