MBIA Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

11/05/2019

PURCHASE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- MBIA Inc. (NYSE:MBI) (the Company) today reported a consolidated GAAP net income of $71 million, or $0.86 per share, for the third quarter of 2019 compared to a consolidated GAAP net loss of $45 million, or $(0.50) per share, for the third quarter of 2018. The favorable variance for the third quarter of 2019 was primarily driven by 1) the increase in net gains on financial instruments at fair value and foreign exchange of variable interest entities (VIEs), which was largely due to an increase in loss recoveries for RMBS put-back claims on ineligible mortgage loans and the value of unwrapped COFINA bonds sold out of the Custodial Trust that resulted from the restructuring of COFINA earlier this year; and 2) the decrease in loss and loss adjustment expense largely related to increased recoveries associated with Puerto Rico credits mostly due to lower risk-free interest rates used to discount loss recoveries. A significant positive variance also resulted from net gains on the sale of uninsured PREPA bonds owned by National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation (National).

Book value per share was $12.86 as of September 30, 2019 compared with $12.46 as of December 31, 2018. The increase in book value per share since year-end 2018 was primarily due to lower shares outstanding as a result of the 10.3 million shares of MBIA common stock repurchased by the Company during the first nine months of 2019.

The Company also reported an Adjusted Net Income (a non-GAAP measure defined in the attached Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures) of $115 million or $1.46 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2019 compared with an Adjusted Net Loss of $32 million or $(0.35) per diluted share for the third quarter of 2018. The improved result was primarily due to the $138 million favorable variance of loss and loss adjustment expense at National, which primarily resulted from higher recoveries on its Puerto Rico credits in 2019 largely due to lower risk-free discounting rates versus a net loss and loss adjustment expense for the third quarter of 2018 that was primarily due to additional losses on its Puerto Rico credits.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) provides investors with views of the Company’s operating results that management uses in measuring financial performance. Reconciliations of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) to net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP, are also attached.

Statement from Company Representative

Bill Fallon, MBIA’s Chief Executive Officer noted, “This quarter we repurchased $39.6 million of MBIA common shares and nearly extinguished National’s insured COFINA exposure, with gross par plus accreted interest declining from $1.2 billion at year-end 2018 to $65 million at the end of the third quarter.”

Year-to-Date Results

The Company recorded a consolidated GAAP net loss of $116 million, or $(1.40) per diluted common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with a consolidated net loss of $289 million, or $(3.24) per diluted common share, for the first nine months of 2018. The lower loss this year was primarily due to reduced loss and loss adjustment expense, which was primarily due to increased recoveries on its Puerto Rico credits, the increase in net gains on financial instruments at fair value and foreign exchange of variable interest entities (VIEs), which was largely due to an increase in loss recoveries for RMBS put-back claims on ineligible mortgage loans and the value of unwrapped COFINA bonds sold out of the Custodial Trust that resulted from the restructuring of COFINA earlier this year, and lower net realized losses of consolidated VIEs, primarily related to greater losses reported in 2018 related to the deconsolidation of certain VIEs.

The Company’s non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $78 million or $0.94 per diluted share compared with an Adjusted Net Loss of $144 million or $(1.62) per diluted share for the first nine months of 2018. The favorable variance for 2019 was primarily due to the favorable variance of loss and loss adjustment expense at National.

MBIA Inc.

As of September 30, 2019, MBIA Inc.’s liquidity position totaled $232 million, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents and other liquid assets. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company called $150 million of the MBIA Inc. 6.4% Senior Notes due 2022.

During the third quarter of 2019, National purchased 4.3 million shares of MBIA Inc. common stock at an average price of $9.12 per share. As of October 29, 2019, there was $105 million remaining under the Company’s $250 million share repurchase authorization and 80 million of the Company’s common shares were outstanding.

National Public Guarantee Financial Corporation

National had statutory capital of $2.5 billion and claims-paying resources totaling $3.7 billion as of September 30, 2019. National’s total fixed income investments plus cash and cash equivalents had a book/adjusted carrying value of $2.7 billion as of September 30, 2019. National’s insured portfolio declined by $3 billion during the quarter, ending the quarter with $51 billion of gross par outstanding. National ended the quarter with a leverage ratio of gross par to statutory capital of 20 to 1, down from 23 to 1 as of year-end 2018.

MBIA Insurance Corporation

The statutory capital of MBIA Insurance Corporation as of September 30, 2019 was $533 million and claims-paying resources totaled $1.3 billion. As of September 30, 2019, MBIA Insurance Corporation’s liquidity position (excluding resources from its subsidiaries and branches) totaled $115 million consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents and other liquid assets.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following are explanations of why the Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release, which serve to supplement GAAP information, are meaningful to investors.

Book value adjustments: Management adjusts GAAP book value to remove the book value of MBIA Corp. and for certain items which the Company believes will reverse from GAAP book value through GAAP earnings and comprehensive income, as well as add in the impact of certain items which the Company believes will be realized in GAAP book value in future periods. The Company has limited such adjustments to those items that it deems to be important to fundamental value and performance and for which the likelihood and amount can be reasonably estimated. The following provides a description of management’s adjustments to GAAP book value:

  • Negative Book value of MBIA Corp. – We remove the negative book value of MBIA Corp. based on our view that given MBIA Corp.’s current financial condition, the regulatory regime in which it operates, the priority given to its policyholders, surplus note holders and preferred stock holders with respect to the distribution of assets, and its legal structure, it is not and will not likely be in a position to upstream any economic benefit to MBIA Inc. Further, MBIA Inc. does not face any material financial liability arising from MBIA Corp.
  • Net unrealized (gains) losses on available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities excluding MBIA Corp. – We remove net unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income since they will reverse from GAAP book value when such securities mature. Gains and losses from sales and OTTI of AFS securities are recorded in book value through earnings.
  • Net unearned premium revenue in excess of expected losses of National - We include net unearned premium revenue in excess of expected losses. Net unearned premium revenue in excess of expected losses consists of the financial guarantee unearned premium revenue of National in excess of expected insurance losses, net of reinsurance and deferred acquisition costs. In accordance with GAAP, a loss reserve on a financial guarantee policy is only recorded when expected losses exceed the amount of unearned premium revenue recorded for that policy. As a result, we only add to GAAP book value the amount of unearned premium revenue in excess of expected losses for each policy in order to reflect the full amount of our expected losses. The Company’s net unearned premium revenue will be recognized in GAAP book value in future periods, however, actual amounts could differ from estimated amounts due to such factors as credit defaults and policy terminations, among others.
  • Gain (loss) related to National VIE consolidations – We remove the impact of VIE consolidations by National. GAAP requires the Company to consolidate certain VIEs as a result of the Company’s insurance policies. However, since the Company does not own such VIEs, management uses certain measures adjusted to remove the impact of VIE consolidations for National in order to reflect financial exposure limited to its financial guaranty contracts.

Claims-paying Resources (CPR): CPR is a key measure of the resources available to National and MBIA Corp. to pay claims under their respective insurance policies. CPR consists of total financial resources and reserves calculated on a statutory basis. CPR has been a common measure used by financial guarantee insurance companies to report and compare resources and continues to be used by MBIA’s management to evaluate changes in such resources. The Company has provided CPR to allow investors and analysts to evaluate National and MBIA Corp. using the same measure that MBIA’s management uses to evaluate their resources to pay claims under their respective insurance policies. There is no directly comparable GAAP measure.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss): Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is a useful measurement of performance because it measures income from the Company excluding its international and structured finance insurance segment, which is not part of our ongoing business strategy. Also excluded from Adjusted Net Income (Loss) are investment portfolio realized gains and losses, gains and losses on financial instruments at fair value and foreign exchange, and realized gains and losses on extinguishment of debt. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) eliminates the tax provision (benefit) as a result of a full valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax asset. Trends in the underlying profitability of the Company’s businesses can be more clearly identified without the fluctuating effects of the excluded items previously noted. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as defined by the Company does not include all revenues and expenses required by GAAP. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is not a substitute for and should not be viewed in isolation from GAAP net income.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share represents that amount of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) allocated to each fully diluted weighted-average common share outstanding for the measurement period.

MBIA management further adjusts Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per share by removing the impact of our U.S. public finance insurance segment VIE consolidations. GAAP requires the Company to consolidate certain VIEs that have issued debt obligations insured by the Company. However, since the Company does not own such VIEs, management uses certain measures that remove the impact of VIE consolidations for our U.S. public finance insurance segment in order to reflect financial exposure limited to its financial guaranty contracts.
