Press Release
Triad Guaranty Inc. Reports First Quarter Results
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., May 11, 2012 -- Triad Guaranty Inc. (OTCBB: TGIC) today reported a net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 of $37.7 million compared to a net loss of $60.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 and a net loss of $4.9 million during the first quarter of 2011. The 2012 first quarter diluted loss per share was $2.47 compared to a diluted loss per share of $3.99 for the 2011 fourth quarter and $0.32 for the first quarter of 2011.
Ken Jones, President and CEO, said, “During the 2012 first quarter, we experienced the anticipated positive seasonal impact of lower first notices of defaults and increased cure rates normally attributed to income tax refunds and, to a lesser extent, year-end bonuses. As a result, primary risk in default declined by 7.4% sequentially compared to a sequential decline of 4.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011. Net losses and loss adjustment expenses for the first quarter were $67.9 million, down from the $107.4 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2011 which reflected an increase in the frequency factors utilized in our reserve calculation. Settled claims were $99.4 million during the 2012 first quarter compared to $118.3 million in the 2011 fourth quarter and $111.9 million in the first quarter of 2011. Persistency, the key driver of our earned premiums, remained at elevated levels compared to historical norms as many borrowers are finding it difficult to sell or refinance their homes.”
Mr. Jones continued, “As a company in run-off, our primary focus remains on the efficient and effective servicing of our insured portfolio, particularly with respect to loss management, in order to maximize our claims-paying ability. Our deficit in assets remains substantial and was $737.8 million at March 31, 2012. We believe that, absent significant positive changes in the economy and the residential real estate market, our existing assets and future premiums likely will not be sufficient to meet our current and future policyholder obligations.”
