News for 'TGIC' - (Triad Guaranty Inc. Reports First Quarter Results)
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., May 13, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Triad Guaranty
Inc. (OTCBB: TGIC) today reported a net loss for the quarter ended March 31,
2011 of $4.9 million compared to net income of $26.8 million for the fou! rth
quarter of 2010 and a net loss of $27.8 million for the first quarter of 2010.
The 2011 first quarter diluted loss per share was $0.32 compared to diluted
income per share of $1.76 for the 2010 fourth quarter and a diluted loss per
share of $1.84 for the first quarter of 2010.
Ken Jones, President and CEO, said, "After three consecutive quarters of
profits, we reported a small loss during the 2011 first quarter. Although we had
a decrease in new defaults from the fourth quarter of 2010, we did not receive
as much benefit from the positive development of our reserves during the quarter
compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. Net settled claims declined 23% and 26%
compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2010,
respectively. We believe the drop in our net settled claims is primarily related
to loan servicers' issues surrounding foreclosure policies and practices,
including in some cases, foreclosure morator! iums. The drop in net settled claims
had little impact on our 2011 first quarter financial results because we
continue to reserve for a default until we settle the default or receive
definitive information from the servicer that the default has cured."
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 $593.7 million at March 31, 2011.
We continue to believe that, absent significant positive changes in the economy
and the residential real estate market, our existing assets and future premiums
may not be sufficient to meet our current and future policyholder obligations."
