| (1) | In 2011, the Company recorded its final purchase price adjustment related to ACAC’s 2010 purchase of GMAC’s consumer property and casualty insurance business. The Company originally recorded an after-tax gain of $6,792 related to this acquisition in 2010. ACAC finalized its purchase price accounting in 2011 and the impact on the Company’s gain on acquisition was to reduce the gain by $2,349 on an after-tax basis. As required under GAAP, the Company has recorded this adjustment in 2011 and included it as part of equity in earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries (related parties), which was $1,118 and $7,871 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2011. This purchase price adjustment is not included in the Company’s calculation of operating earnings. |
| (2) | The Company recorded a gain of $5,850 and after-tax gain of $3,803 related to the renewal rights and loss portfolio transfer transaction with Majestic Insurance Company. |
| (3) | Operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net income less after-tax realized investment gain (loss), gain (loss) on investment in unconsolidated subsidiary net of tax, acquisition gain, certain amortization expense and foreign currency transaction gain (loss) and should not be considered an alternative to net income. The Company's management believes that operating earnings is a useful indicator of trends in the Company's underlying operations because it provides a more meaningful representation of the Company's earnings power. The Company's measure of operating earnings may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. |
| (4) | Diluted operating earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net income less after-tax net realized investment gain (loss), gain (loss) on investment in unconsolidated subsidiary net of tax, acquisition gain, certain amortization expense and foreign currency transaction gain (loss) divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the period and should not be considered an alternative to diluted earnings per share. The Company's management believes that diluted operating earnings per share is a useful indicator of trends in the Company's underlying operations because it provides a more meaningful representation of the Company’s earnings power. The Company's measure of diluted operating earnings per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. |
| (5) | Operating return on equity is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by the Company as net income less net after-tax realized investment gain (loss), gain (loss) on investment in unconsolidated subsidiary net of tax, acquisition gain, certain amortization expense and foreign currency transaction gain (loss) divided by the average shareholders' equity for the period and should not be considered an alternative to return on equity. The Company's management believes that operating return on equity is a useful indicator of trends in the Company's underlying operations because it provides a more meaningful representation of the Company’s earnings power. The Company's measure of operating return on equity may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. |
