"Horace Mann's third quarter operating income increased 19% compared to the prior year period reflecting stronger Property and Casualty results. Despite a very active catastrophe quarter for the industry, our Property and Casualty operations produced a 95.8% combined ratio including catastrophes. Catastrophe losses of $8.6 million pretax were consistent with the prior year period. The quarter's results reflect significant progress in our efforts to improve auto profitability, and we continue to expect sustained margin improvement to emerge in 2018. In addition, our Retirement and Life results were solid contributors to the quarter's earnings," said Horace Mann's President and Chief Executive Officer Marita Zuraitis.
Property and Casualty Segment
For the third quarter of 2017, Property and Casualty net income increased to $13.4 million compared to $6.7 million in the prior year period. The Property and Casualty combined ratio of 95.8% improved 5.7 points compared to the prior year period. These improvements were primarily due to an improved underlying auto loss ratio, reflecting the impact of rate actions and continued profitability initiatives, as well as a strong underlying property loss ratio and lower expenses.
Prior years' reserves continue to develop favorably; however, the favorable development in the third quarter of $0.5 million pretax was $0.2 million pretax lower than the amount a year ago.
Catastrophe activity in the third quarter of 2017 totaled $8.6 million pretax compared to $8.4 million pretax in the prior year period. Losses related to Hurricane Harvey were $5.0 million pretax and losses related to Hurricane Irma were $2.5 million pretax. The remainder, $1.1 million pretax, of catastrophe losses related to four additional events.
On an underlying basis, the third quarter auto combined ratio of 103.4% improved 4.9 points and the property combined ratio of 79.9% improved 7.8 points as compared to the prior year period. These improvements were driven by both lower loss ratios and improved expense ratios. The underlying auto loss ratio of 74.5% improved 3.2 points compared to the prior year period as a result of an increase in earned premium due to rate actions combined with continued stabilization in auto loss trends. The underlying property loss ratio of 46.3% improved 6.6 points compared to the prior year period primarily as a result of lower non-catastrophe weather-related losses in the current quarter.
For the first nine months of 2017, Property and Casualty net income decreased to $2.2 million compared to $16.0 million in the prior year period as a result of elevated catastrophe losses and non-catastrophe weather-related losses that occurred in the first half of the year. The Property and Casualty combined ratio of 106.5% increased 4.1 points compared to a year ago. Pretax catastrophe losses were $9.8 million higher than the first nine months of 2016; favorable prior years' reserve development was $2.2 million pretax less than the prior year period.
On an underlying basis, the nine month auto loss ratio of 77.0% increased 0.5 points compared to the prior year period. For property, the underlying nine month loss ratio of 49.7% increased 6.1 points compared to the prior year period and was largely related to the impact of higher non-catastrophe weather-related losses that occurred in the first half of the year. The expense ratio for Property and Casualty of 26.7% was slightly below the prior year period.
Total Property and Casualty written premiums of $177.2 million and $498.0 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 increased 4% and 5%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The growth was driven primarily by rate actions, which resulted in an increase in the average premium per policy for both auto and property.

Total Property and Casualty sales* increased 5% and 7% compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016. For the third quarter 2017, auto sales increased 5% and property sales increased 6% compared to the prior year period. Policy retention continues to be strong with auto and property policy retention rates for the current quarter at 83% and 88%, respectively.
Retirement Segment
For the third quarter of 2017, Retirement net income of $13.6 million decreased $2.1 million compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a $3.4 million pretax decrease in net interest margin and a $1.0 million pretax increase in operating expenses offset by a $1.1 million pretax increase in contract charges.
For the first nine months of 2017, the annualized net interest spread on fixed annuity assets was 188 basis points, a decrease of 7 basis points compared to a year ago. Annuity assets under management of $6.6 billion increased 5% compared to a year ago, and total cash value persistency remained strong at 90% for variable annuities and 93% for fixed annuities.
Overall, the total level of Retirement deposits* was in line with the prior year periods with an increase in asset flows related to fee-based mutual fund offerings largely offsetting a decrease in traditional annuity products. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, annuity deposits of $114.8 million and $348.9 million decreased 26% and 11%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The decline in annuity deposits was related to lower sales of single premium annuity products in the current year. For the current year, deposits on recurring annuity products increased 1% as compared to the prior year. Sales* and deposit activity related to new retail and institutional Retirement Advantage products, as well as other mutual fund offerings, were strong with $53.0 million of deposits in the current year compared to $28.0 million in the prior year.
Life Segment
Life net income of $4.8 million and $14.3 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, increased 4% and 9%, respectively, largely due to lower operating expenses compared to the third quarter of 2016 and more favorable mortality results compared to the prior nine months of 2016.
Life insurance premiums and contract deposits* of $26.4 million for the current quarter decreased 3% compared to the prior year period. For the first nine months of 2017, they increased 2%, to $79.8 million compared to the prior year period. Life sales* of $3.2 million decreased 11% compared to the third quarter of 2016. Life sales for the first nine months of 2017 of $11.6 million increased 8% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to an increase in single premium sales. Life persistency of 95% was comparable to 12 months earlier.
Investment Results
Total net investment income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 decreased 3% and increased 2% compared to the prior year periods, reflecting higher asset balances in the Retirement segment offset by the impact of the current low interest rate environment. Pretax net realized investment losses were $3.5 million and $1.7 million for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, respectively. In the third quarter of 2017, $6.1 million pretax charges for other than temporary impairment were recorded primarily on fixed maturity securities in the construction sector.

Horace Mann's net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities were $455.3 million at September 30, 2017, compared to net unrealized investment gains on fixed maturity and equity securities of $599.3 million at September 30, 2016. The decline in net unrealized gains is largely attributable to an increase in interest rates.
Capital Management
During the third quarter of 2017, the Company repurchased 48,440 shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $1.7 million under its share repurchase program. As of September 30, 2017, $27.8 million remained authorized for future share repurchases under the share repurchase program.
