Ibrahim added, �We will continue to leverage our competitive strength, customer relationships and financial flexibility to best manage through this prolonged uncertainty.�
THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
Net income for the third quarter of $183.6 million was driven by the pre-tax gain recognized on derivatives and other financial instruments of $206.6 million. This unrealized gain resulted mainly from a widening of Radian�s credit spread that significantly reduced the fair value of the company�s derivative liabilities.
The mortgage insurance provision for losses was $276.6 million in the third quarter, compared to $270.0 million in the second quarter of 2011 and $347.8 million in the prior-year period. Mortgage insurance loss reserves were approximately $3.2 billion as of September 30, 2011, a decrease from $3.3 billion in the second quarter of 2011, and $3.5 billion a year ago. First-lien reserves were $25,346 per primary default as of September 30, 2011, compared to $25,334 as of June 30, 2011, and $22,780 a year ago.
The total number of primary delinquent loans decreased slightly from the second quarter of 2011, which was the seventh consecutive quarterly decline in delinquent loans.
The risk-to-capital ratio for Radian Guaranty Inc., the company�s primary mortgage insurance subsidiary, was 21.4:1 at September 30, 2011, compared to a ratio of 19.8:1 at June 30, 2011, and 17.2:1 at September 30, 2010.
New mortgage insurance written (NIW) increased to $4.1 billion in the third quarter, compared to $2.3 billion in the second quarter of 2011 and $3.2 billion a year ago, and continued to consist of loans with excellent risk characteristics. The company anticipates NIW for the fourth quarter of 2011 of more than $5 billion.
Total mortgage insurance claims paid were $329.9 million for the third quarter, compared to $512.6 million ($459.0 million excluding termination impact) in the second quarter of 2011, and $494.2 million a year ago. The company expects mortgage insurance claims paid of approximately $400 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 and approximately $1.6 billion for the full-year 2011. For 2012, Radian expects mortgage insurance claims paid of approximately $1.3 billion.
Radian Asset Assurance Inc. continues to serve as an important source of capital support for Radian Guaranty and is expected to continue to provide Radian Guaranty with cash infusions over time.
– Excluding gains and losses on derivatives and other financial instruments, the financial guaranty segment was again profitable on an operating basis in the third quarter of 2011.
–
– As of September 30, 2011, Radian Asset had approximately $1.0 billion in statutory surplus and an additional $1.1 billion in claims-paying resources.
– Net par outstanding for Radian Asset was $71.9 billion as of September 30, 2011, compared to $74.7 billion as of June 30, 2011, and $79.9 billion as of September 30, 2010.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
All statements in this press release that address events, developments or results that we expect or anticipate may occur in the future are �forward-looking statements� within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the United States (�U.S.�) Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In most cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as �anticipate,� �may,� �will,� �could,� �should,� �would,� �expect,� �intend,� �plan,� �goal,� �contemplate,� �believe,� �estimate,� �predict,� �project,� �potential,� �continue,� or the negative or other variations on these words and other similar expressions. These statements, which may include, without limitation, projections regarding our future performance and financial condition, are made on the basis of management�s current views and assumptions with respect to future events. Any forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking information. The forward-looking statements, as well as our prospects as a whole, are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including:
Losses in our mortgage insurance business have reduced Radian Guaranty�s statutory surplus and increased Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital ratio; additional losses in our mortgage insurance portfolio or financial guaranty portfolio without a corresponding increase in capital or decrease in risk could further negatively impact these ratios, which could limit Radian Guaranty�s ability to write new insurance and increase restrictions and requirements placed on Radian Guaranty.
We and our insurance subsidiaries are subject to comprehensive, detailed regulation, principally designed for the protection of our insured policyholders rather than for the benefit of investors, by the insurance departments in the various states where our insurance subsidiaries are licensed to transact business. Insurance laws vary from state to state, but generally grant broad supervisory powers to state agencies or officials to examine insurance companies and enforce rules or exercise discretion affecting almost every significant aspect of the insurance business, including the power to revoke or restrict an insurance company�s ability to write new business.
The GSEs and state insurance regulators impose various capital requirements as well as capital and risk-based measurements on our insurance subsidiaries. These include risk-to-capital ratios, risk-based capital measures and surplus requirements that limit the amount of insurance that each of our insurance subsidiaries may write. Failure to maintain adequate levels of capital could lead to intervention by the various insurance regulatory authorities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, business prospects and financial condition.
Under state insurance regulations, mortgage insurers are required to maintain minimum surplus levels and, in certain states, a minimum amount of statutory capital relative to the level of risk in force, or �risk-to-capital.� Sixteen states (the risk-based capital or �RBC States�) currently have a statutory or regulatory risk-based capital requirement (a �Statutory RBC Requirement�), the most common of which (imposed by 11 of the RBC States) is a requirement that a mortgage insurer�s risk-to-capital ratio may not exceed 25 to 1. Radian Guaranty�s domiciliary state, Pennsylvania, is not one of the RBC States. In the first nine months of 2011, the RBC States accounted for approximately 53.5% of Radian Guaranty�s total primary new insurance written. If Radian Guaranty is not in compliance with the applicable Statutory RBC Requirement in any RBC State, it would be prohibited from writing new business in that state until it is back in compliance or it receives a waiver of the requirement from the applicable state insurance regulator, as discussed in more detail below. In those states that do not have a Statutory RBC Requirement, it is not clear what actions the applicable state regulators would take if a mortgage insurer fails to meet the Statutory RBC Requirement established by another state. Accordingly, if Radian Guaranty fails to meet the Statutory RBC Requirement in one or more states, it could be required to suspend writing business in some or all of the states in which it does business. In addition, the GSEs and our mortgage lending customers may decide not to conduct new business with Radian Guaranty (or reduce current business levels) or impose restrictions on Radian Guaranty while its risk-to-capital ratio remained at elevated levels. The franchise value of our mortgage insurance business would likely be significantly diminished if Radian Guaranty was prohibited from writing new business or restricted in the amount of new business it could write in one or more states.
As a result of the significant losses we experienced in our mortgage insurance business during the last four years and despite significant capital contributions to this business, Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital ratio has increased from 8.1 to 1 at December 31, 2006 to an estimated 21.4 to 1 at September 30, 2011. Based on our current projections, which are based on various assumptions that are subject to inherent uncertainty and require judgment by management, Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital ratio is expected to continue to increase and, absent any future capital contributions from our holding company, exceed 25 to 1 in the near term. The ultimate amount of losses and the timing of these losses will depend in part on general economic conditions and other factors, including the health of credit markets, home prices and unemployment rates, all of which are difficult to predict and beyond our control. In addition, establishing loss reserves in our businesses requires significant judgment by management with respect to the likelihood, magnitude and timing of anticipated losses. This judgment has been made more difficult in the current period of prolonged economic uncertainly, and the models and estimates we use to establish loss reserves may prove to be inaccurate. If the actual losses we ultimately realize are in excess of the loss estimates we use in establishing loss reserves, we may be required to take unexpected charges to income, which could hurt our capital position and increase Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital position.
Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital position also is dependent on the performance of our financial guaranty portfolio. During the third quarter of 2008, we contributed our ownership interest in Radian Asset Assurance to Radian Guaranty. While this reorganization provided Radian Guaranty with substantial regulatory capital and dividends, it also makes the capital adequacy of our mortgage insurance business dependent, to a significant degree, on the performance of our financial guaranty business. If the performance of our financial guaranty portfolio deteriorates materially, including if we are required to establish one or more significant statutory reserves as a result of defaults on obligations that we insure, or if we make net commutation payments to terminate insured obligations in excess of the then posted statutory reserves for such obligations, the regulatory capital of Radian Guaranty also would be negatively impacted. Any decrease in the capital support derived from our financial guaranty business could, therefore, increase the risk-to-capital ratio of Radian Guaranty and negatively impact its ability to remain in compliance with the Statutory RBC Requirements.
We actively manage Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital position in various ways, including: (1) through reinsurance arrangements with our subsidiaries, (2) by seeking opportunities to reduce our risk exposure through commutations or other negotiated transactions, and (3) by contributing additional capital from our holding company to our mortgage insurance operations. Our holding company currently has unrestricted cash and liquid investments of approximately $600 million, which may be used to further support Radian Guaranty’s risk-to-capital position. Depending on the extent of our future losses, the amount of capital contributions required for Radian Guaranty to remain in compliance with the Statutory RBC Requirements could be substantial and could exceed amounts maintained at our holding company.
Our ability to continue to manage Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital through reinsurance may be limited. Our existing inter-company reinsurance arrangements are conducted through affiliated insurance subsidiaries, and therefore, remain subject to regulation by state insurance regulators who could decide to limit, or require the termination of, such arrangements. In addition, certain of these affiliated reinsurance companies currently are operating at or near minimal capital levels and have required, and may continue to require, additional capital contributions from our holding company in the future. One of these affiliated insurance companies, which provides reinsurance to Radian Guaranty for coverage on loans in excess of 25%, is a sister company of Radian Guaranty, and therefore, most of any contributions to this insurer would not be consolidated with Radian Guaranty�s capital for purposes of calculating Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital position. In the recent past, Fannie Mae has proposed amendments to its mortgage insurance eligibility guidelines which, if implemented without revision or a waiver for existing arrangements, may prohibit the use of certain of our inter-company reinsurance arrangements. If we are limited in, or prohibited from, using inter-company reinsurance arrangements to manage Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital level, it would adversely impact Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital position.
In order to maximize our financial flexibility, we have applied for waivers or similar relief for Radian Guaranty in each of the RBC States. For the past several years, we, along with others in our industry, have pursued regulatory changes or relief in the RBC States, primarily through new legislation or other means by which the insurance regulator in these states is granted discretionary authority to waive the Statutory RBC Requirement. As a result of these efforts, we now believe that all of the RBC States other than New York have the flexibility to permit a waiver of their Statutory RBC Requirements. To date, Radian Guaranty has been granted future relief from two states � Illinois has granted a waiver that expires December 31, 2012 and Kentucky has informed us that it would not take action in the event Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital ratio exceeded 25 to 1. The state of Kansas has not granted waivers to any mortgage insurance companies at this time, including Radian Guaranty. We are actively pursuing waivers in the remaining 12 RBC States. There can be no assurance: (1) that Radian Guaranty will be granted a waiver in any of the remaining RBC States; (2) that if a waiver is granted, such regulator will not revoke or terminate the waiver, which the regulator generally has the authority to do at any time; or (3) regarding what, if any, requirements may be imposed as a condition to such waivers, and whether we would be able to comply with any such conditions.
In addition to filing for waivers in the RBC States, we are also preparing our wholly-owned subsidiary, Radian Mortgage Assurance (a sister company of Radian Guaranty formerly named Amerin Corporation) to write new first-lien mortgage insurance business. If necessary, we may use Radian Mortgage Assurance to write mortgage insurance only in those states that do not permit Radian Guaranty to continue writing insurance while it is out of compliance with Statutory RBC Requirements. We have received approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance to use Radian Mortgage Assurance as a first-lien mortgage insurance provider. In addition, we intend to submit a request to the GSEs to have Radian Mortgage Assurance approved as an eligible mortgage insurer for purposes of writing business in each of the RBC States. As part of this submission, we expect to commit to making an initial capital contribution of $50 million to supplement Radian Mortgage Assurance�s existing $17 million of capital. The GSEs could require a greater level of capitalization for Radian Mortgage Assurance and/or a capital contribution to Radian Guaranty as a condition to their approval, any of which would limit our financial flexibility and could make it more difficult for us to meet our holding company obligations in the future, including future principal payments on our long-term debt.
We cannot provide any assurance as to whether we will obtain waivers in the remaining RBC States or whether the GSEs will approve Radian Mortgage Assurance as an eligible mortgage insurer. As part of our waiver requests in the remaining RBC States and our request to the GSEs, we are required to submit financial projections for Radian Guaranty to the various insurance departments and the GSEs, including projections performed by an independent third party.
One of our competitors, Republic Mortgage Insurance Company (�RMIC�), ceased writing new insurance commitments after the waiver it received from its domiciliary state expired on August 31, 2011; and in October 2011, RMIC went into run-off. Another competitor, PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. (�PMI�) and the subsidiary it established to write new business if PMI was no longer able to do so (�PMAC�), ceased issuing new mortgage insurance commitments effective August 2011 when PMI was placed under the supervision of the insurance department of its domiciliary state. Subsequently, on October 20, 2011, the Superior Court of the State of Arizona issued an order directing the Director of the Arizona Department of Insurance (the �Director�) to take possession and control of the property and business of PMI pending a hearing on various matters that include the appointment of the Director as receiver for PMI. Both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac suspended RMIC, PMI and PMAC as approved mortgage insurers. We are uncertain how such events, including the actions taken by the GSEs, will impact the status of Radian Guaranty�s waiver requests and the GSE�s approval process for Radian Mortgage Assurance.
Our existing capital resources may not be sufficient to successfully manage Radian Guaranty�s risk-to-capital ratio. If permitted by the RBC States and the GSEs, our ability to use waivers and Radian Mortgage Assurance to allow Radian Guaranty to continue to write business with a risk-to-capital position in excess of the Statutory RBC Requirements will likely be subject to a maximum risk-to-capital ratio and potentially other restrictions, which we may be unable to satisfy. As a result, even if we are successful in implementing this strategy, additional capital contributions could be necessary, which we may not have the ability to provide. Further, regardless of whether the waivers or Radian Mortgage Assurance are available to us, we may choose to use our existing holding company capital to maintain compliance with the Statutory RBC Requirements. Depending on the extent of our future mortgage insurance losses along with other factors, the amount of capital contributions that may be required to maintain compliance with the Statutory RBC Requirements could be significant and could exceed all of our remaining available capital. In the event we contribute a significant amount of our holding company capital to Radian Guaranty, our financial flexibility would be significantly reduced, making it more difficult for us to meet our holding company obligations in the future, including future principal payments on our long-term debt.
Other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements including the following:
changes in general economic and political conditions, including high unemployment rates and continued weakness in the U.S. housing and mortgage credit markets, the U.S. economy reentering a recessionary period, a lack of meaningful liquidity in the capital markets or in the credit markets, changes or volatility in interest rates or consumer confidence and changes in credit spreads, each of which may be accelerated or intensified by, among other things, further actual or threatened downgrades of U.S. credit ratings or as a result of Congressional action following the recent decision to increase the U.S. debt ceiling;
changes in the way customers, investors, regulators or legislators perceive the strength of private mortgage insurers or financial guaranty providers, in particular in light of recent developments in the private mortgage insurance industry in which certain of our former competitors have ceased writing new mortgage insurance business and, in some cases, have been placed under supervision or receivership of their insurance regulators;
catastrophic events or further economic changes in geographic regions, including governments and municipalities, where our mortgage insurance or financial guaranty insurance exposure is more concentrated;
our ability to successfully execute upon our capital plan for our mortgage insurance business (which depends, in part, on the performance of our financial guaranty portfolio), and if necessary, to obtain additional capital to support our mortgage insurance business and the long-term liquidity needs of our holding company;
a further reduction in, or prolonged period of depressed levels of, home mortgage originations due to reduced liquidity in the lending market, tighter underwriting standards, the risk retention requirements established under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and the decrease in housing demand throughout the U.S.;
our ability to maintain adequate risk-to-capital ratios and surplus requirements in our mortgage insurance business in light of ongoing losses in this business and potential further deterioration in our financial guaranty portfolio which, in the absence of new capital, could depend on our ability to execute strategies for which regulatory and other approvals are required and may not be obtained;
our ability to continue to effectively mitigate our mortgage insurance and financial guaranty losses;
the ability of our primary insurance customers in our financial guaranty reinsurance business to provide appropriate surveillance and to mitigate losses adequately with respect to our assumed insurance portfolio;
a more rapid than expected decrease in the level of insurance rescissions and claim denials from the current elevated levels (including as a result of successful challenges to previously rescinded policies or claim denials), which rescissions and denials have materially mitigated our paid losses and resulted in a significant reduction in our loss reserves;
the negative impact our insurance rescissions and claim denials may have on our relationships with customers and potential customers, including the potential loss of business and the heightened risk of disputes and litigation;
the need, in the event that we are unsuccessful in defending our rescissions or denials, to increase our loss reserves for, and reassume risk on, rescinded loans and pay additional claims;
the concentration of our mortgage insurance business among a relatively small number of large customers;
any disruption in the servicing of mortgages covered by our insurance policies and poor servicer performance;
changes in severity or frequency of losses associated with certain of our products that are riskier than traditional mortgage insurance or financial guaranty insurance policies;
the performance of our insured portfolio of higher risk loans, such as Alternative-A and subprime loans, and of adjustable rate products, such as adjustable rate mortgages and interest-only mortgages;
a decrease in persistency rates of our mortgage insurance policies which would reduce our premium income;
an increase in the risk profile of our existing mortgage insurance portfolio due to the availability of mortgage refinancing to only the most qualified borrowers in the current mortgage and housing market;
changes in the criteria for assigning credit or similar ratings, further downgrades or threatened downgrades of, or other ratings actions with respect to, our credit ratings or the ratings assigned by the major rating agencies to any of our rated insurance subsidiaries at any time, including the credit ratings of Radian Group Inc. and the financial strength ratings assigned to Radian Guaranty Inc. (”Radian Guaranty”);
heightened competition for our mortgage insurance business from others such as the Federal Housing Administration (the “FHA”), the Veteran’s Administration and private mortgage insurers (in particular, the FHA and those private mortgage insurers that have been assigned higher ratings from the major rating agencies or new entrants to the industry that are not burdened by legacy obligations);
changes in the charters or business practices of, or rules or regulations applicable to, Federal National Mortgage Association (”Fannie Mae”) and Freddie Mac, the largest purchasers of mortgage loans that we insure, and our ability to remain an eligible provider to both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac;
changes to the current system of housing finance, including the possibility of a new system in which private mortgage insurers are not required or their products are significantly limited in scope;
the effect of the Dodd-Frank Act on the financial services industry in general, and on our mortgage insurance and financial guaranty businesses in particular, including whether and to what extent loans with mortgage insurance are considered “qualified residential mortgages” for purposes of the Dodd-Frank Act securitization provisions or “qualified mortgages” for purposes of the ability to repay provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and potential obligations to post collateral on our existing insured derivatives portfolio;
the application of existing federal or state consumer, lending, insurance, tax, securities and other applicable laws and regulations, or changes in these laws and regulations or the way they are interpreted; including, without limitation: (i) the outcome of existing, or the possibility of additional, lawsuits or investigations; and (ii) legislative and regulatory changes (a) affecting demand for private mortgage insurance, (b) limiting or restricting our use of (or increasing requirements for) additional capital and the products we may offer, or (c) affecting the form in which we execute credit protection or affecting our existing financial guaranty portfolio;
the possibility that we may fail to estimate accurately the likelihood, magnitude and timing of losses in connection with establishing loss reserves for our mortgage insurance or financial guaranty businesses or premium deficiencies for our mortgage insurance business, or to estimate accurately the fair value amounts of derivative instruments in our mortgage insurance and financial guaranty businesses in determining gains and losses on these contracts;
volatility in our earnings caused by changes in the fair value of our assets and liabilities carried at fair value, including our derivative instruments, and our need to reevaluate the possibility of a premium deficiency in our mortgage insurance business on a quarterly basis;
our ability to realize the tax benefits associated with our gross deferred tax assets, which will depend on our ability to generate sufficient sustainable taxable income in future periods;
our ability to successfully develop and implement a strategy to utilize the recently acquired Municipal and Infrastructure Assurance Corporation (the “FG Insurance Shell”) in the public finance financial guaranty market, which strategy may depend on, among other items, our ability to obtain further necessary regulatory or other approvals, to attract third-party capital and to obtain ratings sufficient to support such a strategy;
changes in accounting guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Financial Accounting Standards Board; and
legal and other limitations on amounts we may receive from our subsidiaries as dividends or through our tax- and expense-sharing arrangements with our subsidiaries.
