Triad Guaranty Inc. Reports Earnings of $17.3 Million for the First Quarter

    WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., April 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Triad Guaranty
Inc. (Nasdaq: TGIC) today reported net income for the quarter ended March
31, 2007 of $17.3 million compared with $18.6 million for the same quarter
a year ago, a decrease of 7%. Diluted earnings per share were $1.16 for the
first quarter of 2007 compared with $1.25 for the first quarter of 2006, a
decrease of 7%. Realized investment gains, net of taxes, increased diluted
earnings per share by $0.03 in the first quarter of 2007 and $0.04 the
first quarter of 2006.
    Mark K. Tonnesen, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "The
highlight for the quarter was our continued success in new production which
contributed to the 34% top line growth in earned premiums. Strong Primary
production during the quarter coupled with improved persistency enabled our
total insurance in force to grow 28% compared to a year ago. Changes in the
market place -- including tax deductibility for mortgage insurance,
problems evidenced in sub prime, widening credit spreads, a flat yield
curve, and a concurrent movement toward more traditional underwriting and
products -- have favored our business. We view this as an opportunity for
Triad."
    Mr. Tonnesen continued, "That said, it remains difficult navigating
through these unsettled times in the housing and mortgage markets. Most
challenging in the short term is weakness in the housing market. Home
prices are generally flat to declining and housing inventories are growing
steadily, placing continued pressure on the amount of paid claims and our
ability to effectively mitigate potential losses. The result for the first
quarter was continued building of reserves and a quarterly loss ratio of
50.9%. Our strategy to limit our exposure to the sub prime market has
proven wise. However, we have changed our portfolio profile over time to
include more Alt A product and recently more potential negative
amortization mortgages. These products continue to perform as expected but
require our ongoing diligent review as they season further."
    Total insurance in force reached $61.5 billion at March 31, 2007,
compared with $48.2 billion a year ago. Insurance in force included Primary
of $38.0 billion and Modified Pool of $23.5 billion at March 31, 2007,
compared with $29.9 billion and $18.3 billion, respectively, a year
earlier. New insurance written during the first quarter of 2007 totaled
$7.6 billion compared with $6.5 billion in the first quarter of 2006.
Primary new insurance written for the first quarter of 2007 was $5.7
billion, up significantly from $1.9 billion in the first quarter of 2006.
New insurance written attributable to Modified Pool transactions, which can
vary substantially from quarter to quarter, totaled $1.9 billion in the
first quarter of 2007, down from $4.6 billion for the same period of 2006.
In the supplemental data accompanying this release, we have included
expanded information regarding potential negative amortization mortgages,
which have grown to be a meaningful portion of our new insurance written
and insurance in force.
    Earned premiums for the first quarter of 2007 were $63.9 million, an
increase of $16.1 million over the same period a year ago. The increase in
earned premiums was due almost equally to the growth in both Primary and
Modified Pool insurance in force over the past year. Persistency was 77.0%
at March 31, 2007 compared with 71.1% at March 31, 2006.
    Incurred losses for the first quarter were $32.6 million, down from
$41.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 and significantly up from $16.4
million in the first quarter of 2006. Total paid claims for the first
quarter of 2007 were $17.7 million, up $1.1 million from the fourth quarter
of 2006 and up $3.3 million from $14.4 million in the first quarter of
2006. Primary severity on paid claims was $31,300 in the first quarter of
2007, up 11% from $28,100 experienced in the fourth quarter of 2006 and up
from $26,300 in the first quarter of 2006. The Primary delinquency rate
declined to 2.35% at March 31, 2007 compared with 2.47% at December 31,
2006 and 2.46% at March 31, 2006. The Modified Pool delinquency rate
increased to 2.93% at March 31, 2007, compared with 2.67% and 2.02% at
December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively, reflecting the
continued seasoning of insurance in force during the last twelve months.
    The Company's loss ratio was 50.9% for the first quarter of 2007
compared with 44.7% for the full year 2006. The Company's expense ratio was
22.8% for the first quarter of 2007 compared to 24.6% for the full year
2006.

     Note: The Company periodically enters into structured transactions
     involving loans that have insurance effective dates within the current
     reporting period but for which detailed loan information regarding the
     insured loans is not provided until later.  When this occurs, the Company
     accrues due premium in the reporting period based on each loan's
     insurance effective date; however, the loans are not reflected in the
     Company's in force and related data totals until the loan level detail is
     reported to the Company. At March 31, 2007, the Company had approximately
     $1.899 billion of structured transactions with effective dates within the
     first quarter for which loan level detail had not been received.
