decreased by $19.6 million in 2007. The decrease is a result of resolving claims associated with terminated
unprofitable programs.
Oxford Life Insurance Company
2007 Compared with 2006
Net premiums were $112.0 million and $121.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. Medicare supplement premiums decreased by $4.1 million due to policy lapses and lower first year
sales offset by an increase in life insurance premiums of $2.9 million due to increased sales. Oxford stopped writing
new credit insurance business in 2006 and as a result, credit insurance premiums decreased by $5.9 million.
Net investment income was $20.9 million and $22.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The decrease was due to a net reduction in invested assets and lower investment yields.
Net operating expenses were $23.8 million and $30.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The decrease was primarily attributable to the reduction of expenses on credit insurance due to
business discontinuance and additional costs in 2006 related to the acquisition of DGLIC.
Benefits incurred were $83.4 million and $88.3 million, for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. This decrease was the result of a $2.0 million decrease in Medicare supplement due to policy
decrements and a decrease of $1.7 million in credit insurance due to decreased exposure, offset by life insurance
benefits of $1.5 million due to increased sales.
Amortization of deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”) and the value of business acquired (“VOBA”) was $13.0
million and $15.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The credit business had a
decrease of amortization of $3.9 million due to decreased business, offset by an increase of $2.3 million in annuities
due to an update of DAC assumptions.
Earnings from operations were $17.2 million and $14.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
