The Phoenix Companies, Inc. (NYSE:PNX) Files Third Quarter 2014 Form 10-Q
HARTFORD, Conn. --(Business Wire)--
The Phoenix Companies, Inc. (NYSE:PNX) today announced the filing of its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2014 with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
"Today's filing concludes a long restatement process and intense effort
to catch up with our delayed periodic reports. We are very pleased to
return to current SEC filer status," said James D. Wehr, president and
chief executive officer.
"Phoenix had a net loss for the third quarter, once again driven
primarily by expenses related to SEC reporting catch-up and remediation
work. Third quarter operating metrics remained strong with
year-over-year sales growth, strong investment performance, favorable
overall mortality and excellent persistency," Mr. Wehr said.
PHOENIX AND PHL VARIABLE RETURN TO CURRENT SEC FILER STATUS
The company's subsidiary, PHL Variable Insurance Company ("PHL
Variable"), also filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended Sept. 30, 2014 with the SEC today and returned to current SEC
filer status.
These two Forms 10-Q are the last of the filings that were subject to
timetables contained in an amended SEC administrative order announced on
Aug. 1, 2014. Phoenix and PHL Variable filed their third quarter 2014
Forms 10-Q before the respective deadlines of Dec. 5, 2014 and Dec. 12,
2014 set forth in the timetables.
THIRD QUARTER 2014 EARNINGS SUMMARY
Third quarter 2014 net loss attributable to The Phoenix Companies, Inc.
was $18.2 million compared with a net loss attributable to The Phoenix
Companies, Inc. of $14.3 million for second quarter 2014 and $21.8
million for third quarter 2013. Significant third quarter 2014 drivers
include:
-
Total financial reporting expenses of $19.4 million, including $13.1
million relating to SEC reporting catch up and remediation and $6.3
million in 2014 audit fees.
-
Partially offsetting these expenses were favorable mortality in the
quarter, strong net investment income from alternative investment
performance and a continued low level of impairments.

meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We
intend for these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe
harbor provisions of the federal securities laws relating to
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
include statements relating to, or representing management's beliefs
about, future events, transactions, strategies, operations and financial
results, including, without limitation, our expectation to provide
information within anticipated timeframes and otherwise in accordance
with law, the outcome of litigation and claims as well as regulatory
examinations, investigations, proceedings and orders arising out of the
restatement and the failure by Phoenix and its wholly owned subsidiary,

potential penalties that may result from failure to timely file

whether existing systems and processes can be timely updated,
supplemented or replaced, and whether additional filings may be
necessary in connection with the restatement. Our actual business,
financial condition or results of operations may differ materially from
those suggested by forward-looking statements as a result of risks and
uncertainties which include, among others, those risks and uncertainties
described in any of our filings with the SEC. Certain other
factors which may impact our business, financial condition or results of
operations or which may cause actual results to differ from such
forward-looking statements are discussed or included in our periodic
reports filed with the SEC and are available on our website at www.phoenixwm.com
