Other Information
 

NOTE 1: Effective January 1, 2012, we retrospectively adopted new accounting guidance related to accounting for costs associated with acquiring or renewing insurance contracts. All periods herein reflect the impact of this adoption.

NOTE 2: On December 30, 2011, we sold our wholly owned subsidiary, EquiTrust Life Insurance Company (EquiTrust Life). While we sold our entire equity interest in EquiTrust Life, another subsidiary, Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company is reinsuring a limited portion of the EquiTrust Life business related to variable universal life and variable annuity products distributed through various unaffiliated third parties, as well as a small amount of fixed life and annuity products.

In accordance with mandatory redemption provisions of the underlying notes, we redeemed $225.0 million of our long-term debt. Redemptions include $50.0 million of our senior notes with affiliates on December 30, 2011 and our $175.0 million public senior notes on January 30, 2012. In addition, we began repurchasing stock in the fourth quarter of 2011 under a stock repurchase plan approved by the Board of Directors.

Additional information regarding the impact of adopting the new accounting guidance, the sale of EquiTrust Life and our capital management initiatives can be found in our filings with the SEC.

NOTE 3: In addition to net income (loss), we have consistently used operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure common in the life insurance industry, as a primary economic measure to evaluate our financial performance. Operating income for the periods presented equals net income (loss) adjusted to eliminate the impact of realized gains and losses on investments, changes in net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, discontinued operations and loss on debt redemption associated with disposed operations.

We use operating income, in addition to net income (loss), to measure our performance since realized gains and losses on investments and the change in net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives can fluctuate greatly from quarter to quarter. Also, the discontinued operations and loss on debt redemption are nonrecurring items. These fluctuations make it difficult to analyze core operating trends. A view of our operating performance without the impact of these mismatches and nonrecurring items enhances the analysis of our results. We use operating income for goal setting, determining short-term incentive compensation and evaluating performance on a basis comparable to that used by many in the investment community.

NOTE 4: Certain financial information presented herein may not add due to rounding.

FBL Financial Group, Inc.
Segment Information

We analyze operations by reviewing financial information regarding our primary products that are aggregated into the Annuity and Life Insurance product segments. In addition, our Corporate and Other segment includes various support operations, corporate capital and other product lines that are not currently underwritten by the Company.

The Annuity segment primarily consists of fixed rate annuities and supplementary contracts (some of which involve life contingencies). Fixed rate annuities provide for tax-deferred savings and supplementary contracts provide for the systematic repayment of funds that accumulate interest. Fixed rate annuities consist primarily of flexible premium deferred annuities, but also include single premium deferred and immediate contracts. With fixed rate annuities, we bear the underlying investment risk and credit interest to the contracts at rates we determine, subject to interest rate guarantees.

The Life Insurance segment consists of whole life, term life and universal life policies. These policies provide benefits upon the death of the insured and may also allow the customer to build cash value on a tax-deferred basis.

The Corporate and Other segment consists of the following corporate items and products/services that do not meet the quantitative threshold for separate segment reporting:
 
investments and related investment income not specifically allocated to our product segments;
 
interest expense;
 
closed blocks of variable annuity, variable universal life insurance and accident and health insurance products;
 
advisory services for the management of investments and other companies;
 
marketing and distribution services for the sale of mutual funds and insurance products not issued by us; and
 
leasing services, primarily with affiliates.

We analyze our segment results based on pre-tax operating income. Accordingly, income taxes are not allocated to the segments. In addition, operating results are reported net of transactions between the segments.
