News for 'TGIC' - (Triad Guaranty Inc. Reports 2010 Second Quarter Results Sequential and Year-Over-Year Increase in Net Income Attributable to Change in Reserve Factors and Modified Pool Premium Accounting Treatment)


WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., Aug 11, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Triad Guaranty Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: TGIC) today reported net income of $79.1 million for its second quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to a net loss of $27.8 million for the first quarter of 2010 and a net loss of $359.4 million for the second
quarter of 2009. The 2010 second quarter diluted income per share was $5.24 compared to a diluted loss per share of $1.84 for the 2010 first quarter and a diluted loss per share of $23.91 for the 2009 second quarter.

The net income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $51.3 million compared to a net loss of $414.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The diluted income per share was $3.40 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a diluted loss per share of $27.65 for the six months ended June 30,
2009.

Ken Jones, President and CEO, said, "We continued to see improvement in several key areas during the second quarter of 2010, which allowed us to decrease the reserves held for existing defaults at June 30, 2010. Higher actual cures experienced during the first two quarters of 2010 caused us to adjust our
reserve factors during the second quarter for future cure rates on existing defaults. These adjustments, along with modestly higher rescission expectations, allowed us to reduce our estimated reserve for losses. The impact of the change
in reserve factors on our second quarter financial results, coupled with an additional accrual of earned premiums during the quarter, were the primary drivers of our net income reported for the quarter. The earned premium accrual reflects the present value of estimated future premiums on Modified Pool
structures where we have already paid out the maximum amount that we are contractually required to pay. While we are seeing improvements in the performance of our insured portfolio, we remain cautious about the outlook for the remainder of 2010 and continuing into 2011, as many economists are now expecting a slower recovery with lingering high ! unemployment rates and continued pressure on the residential real estate market and home prices."

Mr. Jones continued, "As a company in run-off, our primary focus remains the efficient and effective servicing of our insured portfolio, particularly with respect to loss management, in order to maximize our claims-paying ability.
While we are pleased by our 2010 results compared to 2008 and 2009, the income reported in the second quarter of 2010 was due to items that we believe are unlikely to occur in the future in similar amounts and it is unlikely that we will report similar levels of income, and may report no income at all, in future
periods. Furthermore, our financial position improved only slightly during the second quarter, and our deficit in assets was $648.1 million at June 30, 2010.
To meet all of our existing obligations, we will need to earn at least $649 million during the remaining run-off of our business. We believe that absent significant, positive changes in the economy and the resident ial real estate market, our existing assets and future premiums may not be sufficient to meet
our current and future policyholder obligations."
